Chapter 081 Rise to Fame
Lu Luo was very worried.
She is full of awe of officialdom, knowing its danger, and if she is not careful, she will never recover.
She was very worried about affecting Chen Rongfeng.
Chen Rongfeng held a birthday banquet without receiving any gift money, and bought wine and food at his own expense; He "lost his words after drinking", and the squires sent the cloth of Qiansizhai, which he also confiscated, and in order to make up for his "gaffe", he personally sent it back and handed it to the squire's mothers to promote filial piety.
In theory, there was no major fault in his actions.
But those squires spent a lot of money on cloth, and this alone is easy to cause criticism.
The cloth was sold, and the money was made, and Lu Luo's joy was also uneasy.
"Twelfth master, I admit your affection." Lu Luo put away his uneasiness and said to Chen Rongfeng with a smile, "You helped me get off to a good start!" ”
Chen Rongfeng is in a good mood.
He sent Lu Luo back, and the two ran away along the trail. The ancient willows of his mansion were intertwined, and the branches stretched out from the delicate willows.
Long and short willow branches, swinging with the wind, full of grace.
The wind on the face has the sweetness of the peach stamen, as if it has picked up a touch of beauty among the smelling buds, and the scenery in front of Chen Rongfeng is particularly lush.
He looked sideways and saw that Lu Luo's face was covered with light golden sunlight, and her eyes were extremely bright. Her silver hair also seemed to have covered her with Qionghua.
Chen Rongfeng loves her very much, and she is different from everyone else.
When Lu Luo got into the car, he lifted the curtain with his delicate fingers and said goodbye to Chen Rongfeng.
Immediately, she lowered the curtain, and her delicate figure was separated by the swaying curtain and disappeared from Chen Rongfeng's sight.
Chen Rongfeng looked into the distance. It wasn't until her carriage was completely gone that he came back to his senses.
He walked back in a happy mood.
Lu Luo left Chen Rongfeng's mansion and returned to the shop.
Shopkeeper Xia Tingyu was as surprised as Lu Luo.
General Lu Luo told Xia Tingyu in detail for the sake of it, and said: "This matter is very important, no matter what you say outside, you must grit your teeth and don't reveal half a word." ”
Xia Tingyu immediately said: "Girl, don't worry, I know the severity!" ”
The sky-high price of the cloth was sold out, which was a huge gimmick in itself.
Lu Luo took out two thousand taels of silver. Send people everywhere to publicize it. From the streets and alleys, to the three aunts and six mothers-in-law, they all invited people to talk about it.
Several nearby state capitals, including Hangzhou, Lu Luo also sent people to say.
Jiangnan is rich and rich. A hundred taels of silver for a piece of cloth has been had. The more expensive the stuff. The more sought after. So a few noble ladies came to the door.
"Now all that's left is the sample cloth, ma'am." Xia Tingyu is neither humble nor arrogant, "Look at these things." If you like, you can leave a hundred taels of money, and when the cloth comes out, please choose. ”
"Such an expensive subscription?"
"Yes, ma'am." Xia Tingyu said.
Four or five noble ladies came to the door, and only one left a deposit.
Xia Tingyu promised: "If you leave the order, and there is no goods from you next month, we will compensate you five hundred taels, this is a note, you have collected it." ”
With this kind of note, someone left the subscription money again.
By mid-March, Lu Luo's shop had received a subscription from six female dependents.
And the cloth sold before, some people also cut clothes, especially Lu Luo's second aunt, she made a pleated skirt with a mirror and a flower silk.
The pleated skirt was originally flowing and complicated, made of mirror flower silk, the texture was smooth and delicate, and the color was light, and you could see her at a glance when you looked at it from afar.
"What kind of cloth is this?" No matter where the second wife goes, there will always be a female dependent who will ask her.
The pleated skirt is a very ordinary style, and it can be so scorching, which is naturally different from the cloth.
"This is the mirror flower Aya of Sensisai." The second wife smiled.
She deliberately dressed and walked to several households, all of whom had business dealings with her.
In addition to the second wife, Lu Jinqian's wife Lin also made a gown, a silver-red gown, with a moon-white skirt, which seemed to be reflected on her face, which was particularly beautiful.
"Although this dress is a little brighter, it is not jerky, and it can be worn no matter how old you are." Lin wore it out, and the other women she befriended saw it and commented on the good fabric.
Many older women don't dare to wear too bright colors for fear of being cheesy.
Lin's silver-red color is not cheesy at all, but the color is translucent and luxurious, graceful and noble.
"This is the cloth of Qiansi Zhai, one hundred and fifty taels of silver each, one hundred horses a month, and there will be no more when it is sold out," Lin said.
Chen Rongfeng also helped Lu Luo sell a lot, some people stayed to do favors, and some people cut clothes and wore them.
So, some female dependents went to Qiansizhai to see.
"Except for the bright red one, all the other colors are booked, ma'am." Xia Tingyu said.
The big red color is a happy cloth, and not many people buy it.
"So fast?" The ladies were dissatisfied.
Because I can't buy it, I feel even more rare.
Lu Luo's March cloth was actually only half ordered. Because it was just beginning, it was plentiful and cheap, so she deliberately ordered only fifty horses.
She thought it would be difficult to sell, but it turned out that there were far more wealthy people in Huzhou Mansion than she imagined.
This matter has become a topic of conversation in the boudoir, and whoever has a dress made of cloth from Qiansi Zhai will inevitably be valued.
"Business is going up so quickly?" Wen was surprised.
"It's nothing, it's only fifty horses, and it's just a rush to make a fuss now, and I may not be willing to buy it when the time comes." Lu Luo smiled, "It's just a sky-high price, making a lot of money, and selling very little." ”
The big cloth shop has hundreds of sales in a day, and Lu Luo's only fifty horses a month is nothing.
Wen didn't say anything more.
On March 20, Lu Luo's second aunt sent an invitation, her new antique shop was about to reopen, and she specially set up a banquet at home to invite her relatives to be lively.
"It's the land that Luo'er asked her to buy, she died, she built a shop, I don't know when something bad will happen!" Lu Luo's eldest aunt muttered quietly.
The big house, like Lu Luo's family, is also a concubine. The old lady is so shrewd, why did she let the concubine give birth to the eldest son back then, it is also an old thing, and the juniors can't talk about it clearly.
"Shhhh The fifth aunt immediately silenced her, don't add bad luck, "Luo'er is a Xuannu, and the shop she chooses will definitely be prosperous." ”
The eldest lady fears the gods, and naturally she also fears Lu Luo. She just didn't resent the scenery of the second wife, and wanted to say a few depressing words.
Seeing that Mrs. Fifth reminded her, she immediately didn't dare to say more.
The fifth wife is also a concubine's daughter-in-law, but she is cautious and submissive.
Over there, the second wife was surrounded by relatives and friends, and she didn't know what to say, but she laughed loudly, and even the old lady laughed.
At this moment, Ling Lianxiang, the second wife's dowry manager, walked in quickly, sweating profusely.
Although Ling Lianxiang is a house slave, he rarely breaks into the courtyard where his relatives are feasting, and at least he will send a little maid to make a sound.
He is so anxious, it means that something is wrong, something is wrong!
"Look, I said bad luck, bad luck is coming, right?" The eldest lady smiled and whispered to the fifth wife, she was both gloating and glad that she was as good as a god.
