Chapter 403: Crochet Flower Technique (2)

But the women who work as cooks in restaurants of all sizes do not have this opportunity to learn crochet, and they are so greedy that they are about to become cross-eyed. The novel щww.suimeng.lā is like Jiang Mama, Qing'er and Ji'er in Yun'er's kitchen, as well as Xu's sister-in-law in Fujin's kitchen and a few maids who help with the kitchen.

Fortunately, they are not jealous, they are just greedy, and they also know that the other sisters will teach themselves when they learn to do so, there is no other way, it is still okay to make a beard, help teach Mama to wrap the thread, and touch the situation by the way.

Mama Lin said to Mama Jiang, Qing'er, and Ji'er, who had never had time to go to class: "You don't have to worry, when we learn it, we will teach it to you soon, and use this skill to make money in the future, where is enough for the eight of us?" Don't all the girls and grandmothers in the house participate? It's just a few days late. ”

That's too supportive! When Qing'er and Ji'er were helping Ling Juan tie the thread, they said, "Does Mr. know? The slaves and maids are dying of hunger! A small rake sticks out of his throat. ”

"Silly girl, this skill belongs to the popular type, and we will definitely transfer it to the girl and grandmother of the mansion when we go back, so you just wait patiently for a few days, it won't be too late."

Ten days later.

"Fujin, Master Yun is here." The hair is passed on to Fujin.

"Hurry up and pick it up, why do you seem to have brought something?"

"Yes, Sister Shui'er has a flat box in her hand."

"Yun'er asks for peace to Fujin, Fujin is auspicious!"

"Okay, okay, sister, please take a seat. Refreshments on the bun. What is my sister busy with these days? asked Sister Zheng and was also vague. ”

"I'm still learning those skills from foreign lands, and I'll report to you today."

"What is this?"

"Sister Shui'er showed it to Fujin."

Shui Er opened the lid of the box, and Fu Jin immediately exclaimed in a low voice: "Oh! It's so beautiful! Sister, how much did it cost to buy this? ”

"Eight hundred taels of silver."

"Huh? That's expensive, isn't it? The prince didn't reprimand you? Fu Jin believed that it was true.

"I've been trained, and I'm about to lose my skin." Yun'er couldn't hold back a laugh and said matter-of-factly.

"It's a little more expensive, but it's really beautiful." Fu Jin couldn't bear to touch it.

"Fujin, don't just look at it, put it on and try it." Mama Zheng was very anxious.

"How can this be? Such an expensive thing, shiny gold, I'm afraid that the Queen Mother has not worn it. Sister, what kind of hook is this? ”

"This one is a nylon silk hook, so try it on if you like. Come, Yun'er will serve you to put it on. It just so happens that you are wearing a moon-white dress, and wearing this one will make a difference. Money is not a small thing, the key is whether you like it or not. ”

"If my sister wants to say that she doesn't like it, everyone will think that my sister is mentally abnormal.

"Wow! It's so beautiful! The crowd exclaimed.

This is an open robe made of big red and gold thread, which is extremely gorgeous, and the whole garment is connected by flowers. The lace around the edges is inlaid with crystal glass beads that are far apart. Beams of light shine in the sun. Worn on Fujin's plump and slender body, it is more suitable and close-fitting, and it is a fight with the clothes worn by fairies.

"Look in the mirror." Mama Zheng held a mirror in front of Fu Jin's eyes.

"That's too luxurious, isn't it?"

"Isn't that just the right fit for you? When you put it on when you enter the palace, the clothes on the queen mother's body fade immediately! Mama Zheng said proudly.

"Don't mind, compare the Queen Mother, I can't find it? You must not wear this dress when entering the palace. ”

"If the Queen Mother says that you should leave this dress to this palace, you will be stupid."

"Sister Zheng is so right. No, I didn't say I wanted this dress? It's so expensive......"

"If you think it's expensive, I'll give it to you."

"That's not good, then you won't pay to the end?" Fujin has a lot of potential to do business.

"But this dress is tailor-made for you, if you don't want it......"

"Sister Zheng, hurry up and get the silver, I want the clothes! Although I have always been able to say what I wear, none of them can compare to this one. ”

"Did you really buy it? Not afraid of the king's reprimand? Mama Zheng had a worried look on her face.

"I bought it with my monthly silver! Don't talk nonsense, take the silver. ”

"You dare to spend money enough, aren't you afraid that the prince will reprimand you for losing your skin?" Mama Zheng complained matter-of-factly.

"I went out, and I bought it without skin.

Yun'er smiled and bent over: "Fujin, this is what we gave you." ”

"We? Who do we include? ”

"Naturally, there is a share of Yun'er, as well as Sister Ling Juan, Mama Zheng, Sister Peach, Mama Lin, Sister Wei'er, Sister Bun'er, Sister Yu'er, and Sister Shui'er. Yun'er Fang is joking with you, what clothes are worth eight hundred taels, do you believe it? ”

"If you look closely, it's worth it! My sister felt that it was a fairy dress, and she couldn't see the seams. Just now you said how many of you gave it to me? How could it be ......"

"It's something we collectively hooked."

"Yes, this is the skill taught to us by Master Yun, and then we put together the hooked flowers, which is the strength of all of us." Mama Zheng said

"Well, thank you, thank you! I love it so much! ”

"If you like it, that's what it's worth!"

"Do you think such clothes can be sold?"

"I can't."

"Why?"

"My sister can figure out how hard you will work. No matter what kind of cloth it is, it is a ready-made cloth, and just by sewing the cloth together, it becomes a piece of clothing. Your crocheted garments are stitch by stitch and stitch by stitch in such a large piece. Miss Fish, hand me your hand. Obedient. ”

Yu'er handed his hand to Fu Jin, and Fu Jin stroked it distressedly: "It's all out of the cocoon!" It's still a hook of several of you combined, if it's one person, it's too hard, too hard. Fu Jin was moved.

"It's a lot of work to wear such a big clothes, but it's nice to be able to hook a vest. The inside is a red dress, and the outside is a white vest, which must be beautiful. ”

"That's pretty much it. Sister Zheng, go and get a hundred taels of silver, and I will reward you. ”

"Don't pay for it! This is the heart of all of us. Usually you are very kind to us, just as a birthday present to you. ”

"Thank you, thank you." Fu Jin looked at a few caring people with tears in his eyes.

"Sister, sister knows, your mother doesn't have such clothes, you think of your sister in advance......"

"My mother will have it too, isn't it a few days late? You are the number two person in our house, the housewife under one person and above four hundred. ”

"My sister is enjoying talking to you more and more. In a foreign land, even the prince can tell jokes, and Ryoko is much more cheerful. You are getting more and more beautiful, more mature, more feminine. ”

"Look at what you said, you don't dare to raise your head when you praise Yun'er."

"By the way, I don't know what Xuan'er and Rui'er are muttering together these days, laughing and cooing. It's like reading a book. ”

"It may be an exotic book brought back by Yun'er and placed at my father's place, with jokes in it. He loves to laugh again. Wow! It's time for Yun'er to deliver milk. ”

"Do you want them to bring their children? My sister thought about it. It just so happens that my sister wants to hear you tell you an exotic joke. ”

"Yes, you can. Sister Yu'er, Sister Shui'er, you two have to bring Lord Belle and Master Gege over. ”

"Yes, slave and maid obey."

"Sister, who did you learn this crochet technique from over there?"

"It's the little girl who leads Yun'er to the street every day and helps Yun'er print materials."

"How could she be so skilled?"

"This skill is not very advanced in the foreign land, and most of it is played by the old lady when she is idle and has nothing to do. However, there are also handmade ones, and how much processing fees are given for hooking. Xiaoli can not only crochet flowers, but also knit sweaters, woolen pants, scarves, hats and so on. She said that she used to knit woolen scarves by hand, and she only paid ten yuan a day for weaving two scarves, and she stopped doing it if she didn't do it too little. ”

"Ten yuan is how much silver we have in the Qing Dynasty?"

"It's about fifty wen. They have a decimal position, a pound is ten taels, one tael is ten dollars, if it is the Qing Dynasty's money, it will be calculated with sixteen taels, and the garlic will be mixed. ”

"Don't say that you don't usually spend much money, but my sister, the housekeeper, was confused when she heard it. want

said that the processing fee of that scarf is not cheap in our Qing Dynasty, and fifty wen can buy more than 30 liters of rice, or rice. This manual cost is not low. ”

"You're talking about the price of rice in the Qing Dynasty. Exotic rice is 15 to 20 wen a pound in the Qing Dynasty, do you say that it is cost-effective to earn a pound of rice by working for a day? ”

"Why is food so expensive?"

"The food there is very expensive, and there are many people. 1.3 billion, more than 10 times that of the Qing Dynasty. ”

"Scary enough, have you learned how to knit sweaters?"

"Even if you understand the reason, you can start the needle, line the needle, and lock the edge, but there is no time, knitting sweaters is very slow, there is really no time to spare, and when you are idle in the future, knit a sweater for the prince to wear, anyway, it is worn inside, and no one pays attention."

"Do you wear it in autumn or winter?"

"You can wear it in spring, autumn and winter."

"When the time comes, my sister will learn from you."

"You can rest assured."

The teaching of crochet art takes a long time, starting with basic stitching to crochet round flowers, square flowers, lace, three-dimensional flowers, doll shoes, small bags, scarves, hats, tops, etc. There weren't many threads used by a few of the grandmothers to teach them, but when all the women in the house participated, the whole box was hairdressed. Every time a large number of consumables are used, Yu'er Shui'er, Ling Juan, Mama Lin, and Mama Jiang are distressed and painful.

"The master estimates that your hands and feet are too big, right? There are more than 200 women in the house, and one person sends a group of lines, which is 200 groups! That's Mr. Chen's antiques, you don't even want to send out a penny of capital to everyone to use, aren't you stupid? ”

Yun'er smiled and said, "I know that Mama Lin is thinking about me, but I am for the mission of the prince." Aren't these things used? If you don't use it, you have to be old, and it won't look good. Besides, we're not just hooking flowers, we have other skills. If you learn all the skills in my hands, won't you have a job in the future? If the thread is gone, we still have long-haired rabbits in our house, spun into rabbit wool, hooked into shawls, sweaters or something, and the price will rise exponentially. Who of those noble ladies wore crocheted clothes? ”

"But......" Mama Lin didn't know whether to persuade the master girl. Yun'er led her and Mama Jiang to room No. 1 upstairs in the courtyard building, opened the door and only opened the door and took a box, and told them: "This room is full of acrylic threads, and each box is stuffed full." ”

"Huh? So much, huh? ”

"Not only this room, but the one next door is also full, enough for everyone to use for a few days. Don't feel distressed, right? ”

Mama Lin and Mama Jiang said in unison: "It's even more distressing." ”

Yun'er knows that "the Tao is different, don't think it's a plan." "Who in the world does not have personal gain as his goal in life? You can't say they're wrong, but you can't admit that they're wrong. There are different levels of standards for right and wrong, and Yun'er doesn't blame them.

Crocheted bags, baby shoes, handbags, etc. appeared on the counter of the Nalan Department Store, and were discovered by a young grandmother of a large family and her husband who accompanied her shopping. The eldest sister and the younger sister all complained about why she didn't buy more for everyone to bring back, didn't she give you silver?

"I'm not afraid that you won't give me money, it's a limited supply in the store! Didn't you see me and your brother buying one each? People say it's hand-hooked, which is troublesome, tiring and slow. ”

"Let's buy it ourselves!" The little sister-in-law didn't say a word, and took the maid to the Nalan Department Store.

"This young lady, I'm really sorry, it's sold out. There aren't many of them, and they're lined up just after they're on the shelves, and you'll have to wait for the next batch. ”

"Tell me about the time? Why don't we pay for the order? ”

Nalan Donggui's heart moved, the order is good, the order is better than the retail one, it's not good to pay the money, right?

"The thing is not mine, I don't count it, why don't you go back first, and wait for me to negotiate with the owner? If he agrees, I will charge you half of the payment, and then set a date, and when the goods are available, you will come to pick them up, or send them to you? ”

"I don't need to send it, I'll send someone to get it. Say hello to your host. ”

"Then you'll listen to the letter tomorrow?"

"Okay, stake, come here, tomorrow you come to listen to Xin'er, this is the shopkeeper of Nalan, just look for him."

"Let's talk about it first, your order is not the limit of each amount."

"Why are you so shafted? Can I sell it? My father is also an official, and it is a law of the Qing Dynasty that officials are not allowed to do business, so we won't want black yarn hats because of a few flowers, right? Besides, I'm ......"

The little maid stump spoke: "My young lady is a dowry......

"I want you to talk more!" The stake's head was struck.

"There's an order?" Yun'er was very happy. It is not enough to do business by retail, and the quantity of order processing will be very large, and there will be a lot of money. But there is a contract for ordering, who is responsible for signing the contract? The prince can't come forward, and the woman can't come forward, so she has to ask the prince.

"Ryoko, you are responsible for signing the contract, only you, the king, can rest assured. Yun'er, you found a sample of the contract and changed it to a style suitable for our Qing Dynasty, in duplicate. What do you see? ”

Tian Liang knew that the prince was starting to reuse himself, so he said, "Okay, my subordinates will come forward to sign a contract with someone." ”

"You just do it boldly, with your steadiness and meticulousness, nothing will go wrong. Even if something goes wrong, I won't punish you, who doesn't make some mistakes? Sum up the lessons and don't do it next time. ”

"Thank you for your trust!"

The ordering business started immediately. Although the number is small. Make little money, but it is also the beginning of a large business.
