Nie Shuyao didn't know what was happening on the street, she was listening to the steward in her cloth shop about the business situation in the past few days.

Nie Shuyao's cloth shop is called "Su Weaving Workshop", which she has officially taken over since she was nine years old, selling cotton, linen and other goods for the public. But there are a lot of colors of cotton cloth, and many people buy it, and in the past two years, it has more than the income of their pharmacy.

In particular, our specialty cloth is the color check. This is her originality, although it is only cotton, it is not cheap, even more expensive than silk.

In fact, this cloth is to put it bluntly, it is yarn-dyed cloth, which belongs to a kind of yarn dyed first and then woven. Compared with the cloth of this era, which was woven and then dyed, the color was brighter, and it was checkered, which could be used for edging, collars, and inner skirts, and the clothes made were unique.

It's just that the quantity of this plaid cloth is too small, and those who want it have to place an order first, and they can even design their own colors, which is a major feature of our store.

The housekeeper of the weaving workshop is surnamed Liu, and the family of four has signed a lifetime employment agreement, and this plaid cloth is only woven by Liu's wife and eldest daughter, and the output is limited.

In fact, in Nie Shuyao's opinion, it is not difficult to weave this cloth, but the difficulty is the dyeing and yarn arrangement. If you are knowledgeable and buy a roll of cloth, you will understand it when you take it apart and study it, but this cloth has been sold for a few years, but you have not found any imitations on the market.

Nie Shuyao understands very well the truth that scarcity is expensive, she wants to make high-quality cloth and push cotton cloth to the high-end market. On the cloth sold, he also asked Steward Liu's daughter to specially embroider the word "Su Weaving", which is a flower font designed by Nie Shuyao.

Now, in addition to ordinary cotton cloth, all the best cloth in our store has the word plain weaving. In order to make her Su Weaving Workshop famous, Nie Shuyao will open the Su Weaving Workshop all over the Ming Dynasty when she has the funds and other aspects in the future.

"Xi'er, give, learn to read the account book." After reading the account book, Nie Shuyao directly threw this to Nie Tianxi, who was standing beside her.

Steward Liu ran to Nie Tianxi again and explained something to him.

Nie Tianxi no longer feels that all the people who do business are untouchables these days, clothing and eating are big problems, this can't be solved, and it's useless to be cheap or not. He looked at it and asked some things he didn't understand, and he got started quickly.

Steward Liu is in his thirties and looks very tall, but he is a very honest character, not a native of Pear Blossom Town. One year, when they came to Lihua Town by begging, the family of three was so hungry that they couldn't take on human shape, and it was the Nie family who took them in. Later, when he saw that he was still literate, and his wife was a good weaver, he made him the steward of the cloth shop, and the family settled here.

At that time, Nie Shuyao was only four years old, and their youngest son was born in Lihua Town, and now he is following Steward Liu as a helper, and it seems that he is ready to take over his father's class.

Nie Shuyao is very relieved of this family, it is said that their hometown lives in Yangzhou, and they offended the local small magnates and were forced to sell a qiē family belongings to make a living, but fortunately they met Nie Shi, so they were not starved to death. Since then, the family has signed a lifetime employment agreement, but they are not slaves, which is also the insistence of Steward Liu, and the people of their Liu family can work for people for a lifetime, but they cannot be slaves.

After Nie's death, Steward Liu knew that his owner was Miss Shuyao, and he was a hundred convinced of Nie Shuyao. Not to mention that the plaid cloth was conceived by her, and it is her means to run this almost loss-making store to the point where it can make more money than a pharmacy.

"Miss, young master, it's noon, let's stay here and have some food." He said.

Nie Shuyao looked at the sky and nodded. At a glance out of the corner of her eye, she remembered that Yuqin was still there, it had been more than half an hour, I was afraid that Yuqin's stepfather was scolding again, she was a little self-blaming.

Yuqin had never been to the weaving workshop, and although it was an ordinary cloth shop, she didn't dare to come. This will be looking at the cloth hanging on the wall, those flower cloths are so beautiful, I want to touch but don't dare to look, people look sad.

"Steward Liu, you go find some flower cloth heads, except for the plaid cloth, it doesn't matter if the other cloths are larger." Nie Shuyao said to Steward Liu.

Steward Liu left in response, and Nie Tianxi quietly looked at the account books on the side.

This is the backyard of the Su Weaving Workshop, and it can also be said to be Nie Shuyao's office here.

In front of it is the shop, and there are two young men who are buying and selling; In the backyard are several side rooms, where Steward Liu's family and two young men live.

Over time, the store became their home.

Nie Shuyao likes this kind of family feeling very much, the two young guys are also from a hard background, and they are smart, Nie Shuyao plans to cultivate them and lay a talent foundation for his future business path.

Soon Steward Liu came out with a big burden, and Nie Shuyao took a casual look at it, thinking that these cloths could be put together to create a new dress.

"Parsley, this is for you." She stuffed the burden directly into Yuqin's arms.

Yuqin's hand sank, and she said uneasily: "Sister Shuyao, I'm ...... I can't take it. ”

Nie Shuyao pushed it to her, and said with a smile: "If Chunliu says something when you go home, you will say that you have done me a favor today, and these are the shoes I gave you to make shoes." ”

"But, but...... Even if I take it back, my mother and I will ...... these. Before Yuqin finished speaking, tears rolled in her eyes.

"Understood. It's okay, you can hide a little cloth and make yourself and your brother a new pair of shoes to wear. Let them grab the rest, if it's gone, I'll give it again. There is nothing else here, but there are many cloth heads. Nie Shuyao comforted.

Yuqin looked at Nie Shuyao for a while, then suddenly knelt on the ground and cried: "Sister Shuyao, you can buy me and my younger brother, my younger brother is eight years old, he is not as tall as a six-year-old child, and he can't eat enough every day." My mother, my mother, she ...... She would only cry and could not help anything. Yuqin is very afraid that Chunliu's father will go crazy one day and sell us all for money, it's better to buy us first, Sister Shuyao. Whining....... ”

The low sobs made Nie Shuyao's mood heavy, and she glanced at Nie Tianxi and noticed that he was nodding at him. In fact, it is also excellent to buy them, so that Hutou can be Tianxi's scholar, and Yuqin will follow him to do things.

"But ......, what about your mother? Either way, she's always your mother. Nie Shuyao frowned.

Yuqin cried even more when she heard this, and sobbed: "Yuqin doesn't understand, why did my mother find such a bad person, and it wasn't so difficult for our mother to live together at the beginning." They are all hateful torture matchmakers, she came to my house the day before yesterday to ask for money, but my mother and I don't owe them money! ”

"Alas!" Nie Shuyao sighed, pulled Yuqin up, and persuaded: "Every family has a scripture that is difficult to read, and you don't blame your mother for this." Didn't you also say that you blame that hateful torture matchmaker? Get up first, go home and tell your mother about it, and listen to her opinion. If she agrees, I can buy you here at any time, don't worry. ”

Yuqin got her assurance, smiled again, stuffed a few large pieces of cloth into her arms, and left with the bag of cloth.

At the dinner table, the sisters and brothers didn't eat with Steward Liu's family this time, because Tianxi had something to say.

"Sister, I think Yuqin is good with Hutou, when the time comes, Yuqin will be my sister's girl, and Hutou will be my scholar, right?"

Nie Shuyao nodded, "I think so too." After a slight pause, he said, "I'm afraid that Chunliu's father will cause trouble." ”

An image that looked like a bamboo pole appeared in Nie Tianxi's mind, and he sighed and took two bites of rice. Slurred and asked, "Sister, what secrets do we have in Pear Blossom Town?" ”

Nie Shuyao was stunned for a moment, then remembered the perfunctory Song Yunfei, and said disapprerovitically: "What's the secret, isn't it the origin of Pear Blossom Town." I think that if the person surnamed Song is interested in this, he will definitely come to us again, and then he will find a way to let him beat Liu San completely. ”

"What's the solution?" Nie Tianxi asked again.

"Xi'er help me think about what to do, your sister and I haven't figured it out yet." Nie Shuyao said softly.

Nie Tianxi: "......." ”

"Don't look at me like that, your sister and I are the impromptu type."
