Chapter 062: Guining
When he met the steward of Ling, Lu Luo followed him along the way to the courtyard of the second aunt.
Before entering the door, Lu Luo heard the child's milky voice, and was thinking about which room the child came to play, and when he entered the house, he saw that the fourth aunt and grandmother who were married to Hangzhou had returned.
The second uncle had no concubines, only three children born to the second aunt. The fourth aunt and grandmother are twenty-three years old this year, younger than the second brother Lu Mao, and older than Lu Fu, who entered the palace.
"Sister Luo!" Siniang saw Lu Luo first, stood up and saluted Lu Luo.
Siniang and Lu Fu are sisters, but their personalities are very different.
is different from Lu Fu's crazy willfulness, Siniang has been sensible since she was a child, she is skilled in seeing people and speaking, she is cheerful and enthusiastic, respects her elders, loves her younger siblings, and is deeply respected by the old lady.
The old lady said that among the many granddaughters, no one can compare to Siniang.
"Fourth sister, when did you arrive?" Lu Luo asked with a smile, and immediately saw the man and child beside Siniang, and Lu Luo called his brother-in-law again.
"Shortly after arriving." Siniang smiled, "Today's road is smooth, we got up early to hurry, and we arrived at this time." ”
As she spoke, her eyes lifted to the top of Lu Luo's head, and she didn't leave a trace.
She is much shorter than Lu Luo, even if she is inadvertent, she has to raise her eyes slightly.
When Siniang was eight years old, she became engaged to the wang family of Huzhou Mansion.
Unexpectedly, her in-law's business became bigger and bigger, and she moved to Hangzhou.
The second aunt regretted not falling.
Wu Niang Lu Fu has been rebellious since she was a child, and the second aunt wanted to keep a daughter by her side, so she made up her mind to marry Siniang to Huzhou.
Unexpectedly, it was wrong. Siniang now lives in Hangzhou with her husband's family.
However, Hangzhou is relatively close to Huzhou Mansion, and it takes half a day to get there, and many rich and powerful people in Huzhou Mansion have moved to Hangzhou.
After greeting each other, Siniang's husband was also curious about Lu Luo's silver hair.
In comparison, the fourth brother-in-law was much more generous, looking at Lu Luo's hair openly, and even asked: "What happened to Sister Luo's hair?" ”
Siniang was shocked and immediately glared at her husband. Siniang will take care of the emotions of others, for fear that Lu Luo will have something unspeakable.
Her husband is good at everything. It's just too blunt. No matter how much you teach him, he can't bend his intestines.
"It's a fairy opportunity." Lu Luo Road.
Siniang's husband was even more curious, and Siniang couldn't stop him and asked, "How did you get the fairy machine?" ”
"Your sister is a heavenly master, and her fortune telling and reading hexagrams are very accurate, and she can calculate for you in the future." The second aunt spoke at the right time. interrupted his son-in-law's inquiry.
Siniang's child is only five years old. But extremely sensible. See adults talking. He watched silently, not daring to interject.
"The fourth sister has come back to go to her mother's house, I don't know when my second sister will come back." Lu Luo passed in his heart.
Lu Luo's second sister is ruled by the second aunt and the old lady. Married to Suzhou.
Erniang Lu Su gave birth to a son in early August last year, which was her second child.
The child is eight and a half pounds, and it is extremely difficult to give birth smoothly, almost killing Erniang, giving birth for two days and one night, and then bleeding profusely.
Therefore, Lu Luo and Wen's Fuling went back to Huzhou Mansion to bury Lu Qijun, only the aunt of the Shen family came to worship, and Erniang did not come back.
She was too weak to be tired.
In October, Erniang wrote a letter saying that her life had improved and that she would definitely go back to worship her father, mother and fifth sister during the New Year.
When Lu Luo saw Siniang from Hangzhou, he thought of his sister and was a little distracted.
"Luo'er stays here for dinner at night." In my ear, the second aunt said.
Lu Luo knew that this was to ask her what was going on.
"No, second aunt, I met Steward Ling at the door, and I came over to ask you something, so I won't bother you at night." Lu Luo Road.
"What?" The second aunt asked with a smile.
Lu Luo told the second aunt what the Ling steward and the little girl of the Teng family said.
"Second aunt, what's going on with the Teng family?" Lu Luo said and asked the second aunt.
In this era, the government has not yet refined the dyeing workshop, and there are no restrictions. Each dyeing workshop can not only dye a variety of colors, but even those who do business can also open a dyeing workshop.
The second aunt's business is so big, there were two dyeing workshops when she got married, and she also had business dealings with the Teng family, which made Lu Luo curious.
"His emu aya is the most profitable in my shop, I gave them the whole year's silk in October last year, let them dye it, and I also want to take the opportunity to give them some sweetness and buy the secret recipe of this emu aya's dye. Who knows, their shop caught fire in the moon, burned down the workshop, and my tens of thousands of taels of silver were also buried in the fire" The second aunt sighed.
In the cloth industry, if silk fabrics want to be sold at a high price, the textile process is important, and the dyeing process is also important.
The second wife has her own dyeing workshop, but like other wealthy businessmen, she encountered a new craftsmanship and wanted to buy it to improve her competitiveness.
However, if the vast majority of small dyeing workshops want to inherit, they need their own excellent unique craftsmanship, and they will not be sold easily.
It's like a pharmacy that can sell medicines, but it will never sell ancestral recipes.
The second wife wants the secret recipe of Emu Aya, and she can't grab it, so she naturally has to work hard to buy people's hearts.
Even if she can't buy this secret recipe, she has to buy the shop and use the emu as the exclusive offering of her cloth shop, so that she can make more money.
"I gave a large number of goods, but also saw that their workshop was small, and if they took mine, they couldn't take over other cloth shops, which was equivalent to buying out the process." The second wife said again.
The fourth sister and the fourth brother-in-law glanced at the second wife: how can you tell a child an important secret in business?
The second wife's sincere and unreserved teaching surprised the four mothers and their husbands, while the second wife smiled and didn't care.
Lu Luo also understood.
"The Teng family wants you to buy the shop now, will you buy it?" Lu Luo asked.
"Generally, the secret recipe of the unique craft is known only to the person who is in charge of the house. This emu is in demand, and only Teng Dalang will dye it. He has no apprentices, his son is only four years old, after he dies, what is the point of Teng's dyeing workshop? The second wife said.
The implication is that she won't buy it.
"Do you mind if I go and have a look?" Lu Luo asked, "There are still Mr. and buddies in Teng's Dyeing Workshop, maybe they know a thing or two." If the price was right, I'd like to buy it. ”
If you want to make the cloth shop bigger, you must have your own mulberry garden, textile workshop and dyeing workshop.
The industry of this era has not yet reached the level of complete commercialization, and the large cloth shops are self-produced and sold.
If you want to be competitive, you have to have a dragon!
The second wife had contact with the Teng family first, and Lu Luo had to ask her, so she couldn't choke on her line.
"I have several big dyeing shops, doing business for the Teng family, and I also want to buy their secret recipes, and now that the person who knows the secret recipe is dead, what else do I want to do? You go and see, if you like it, just buy it, and it won't cost you a lot of money before. The second aunt said generously.
Lu Luo thanked him.
She's going to see it.
