1043 Raw Silk Cooked Silk
At this moment, on the other side of the long street.
A young man dressed as a rich man is slowly approaching the Xiao family's cloth village.
In front of him is the gate of the cloth house.
He stopped in front of the steps and looked up at the shop, and the young man's brow furrowed.
Without him, just because of this shop...... It's so lonely!
You know, at this time, it's already more than half of the morning!
The pedestrians on the street are not like a tide, but they can also be called an endless stream.
But there are so many people, and few of them take a look inside the cloth village, let alone go in to choose the fabric.
"Did you go to the wrong place?"
The young man squinted his eyes and subconsciously looked up at the signboard hanging on the gate!
The four gilded characters of "Xiaojia Buzhuang" shine brightly in the sun.
"That's right!"
Retracting his eyes suspiciously, the young man scratched his head, and then carefully looked at the door of the cloth village.
It is not a big doorway, and on the side of the steps, two stone lions more than one person high, each lazily stepping on a stone ball, did not see any signs hanging anywhere to suspend business.
"That's right! This is the Xiao family Buzhuang. ”
The final confirmation was completed, and the young man suddenly laughed dumbly.
It turns out that all my worries are just unfounded worries!
With such a half-dead shop, how can you do the whole Yangzhou market?
As for Xiao Han's purchase of all the silk on the market, the young man naturally explained: This guy couldn't stand the stimulation and fainted! It's like a gambler who loses money in a gamble, just making trouble for his opponent, regardless of how much he loses.
This explanation makes sense! It is also very much in line with Xiao Han's consistent style of doing things, at least the young man himself believes it.
"Under the fame, it is difficult to live up to it."
Unconsciously hummed this sentence, just when the young man sighed that everyone in the world was stupid, or he was the only one who woke up, he didn't notice that his every move was falling into the cloth village, in the eyes of Steward Xue.
"Hey, it's boring, Xiaohe, let's go!"
Shaking his head, he was no longer in the mood to go into the store to take a look, the young man turned around, and was about to pull Xiaohe to go elsewhere, when suddenly, from the cloth village, a shop guy came out.
"Two guest officers, but do you want to buy fabrics?" Hurriedly out of the store, the guy asked politely.
"No, it's just hanging out." In a good mood, the young man rarely stood on his feet and replied to the guy.
"Oh......"
When the guy heard this, he let out an oh sound, but his face was not disappointed, and he continued to smile and pointed to a board lane that was swaying over the street:
"Since the guest officer is hanging out, why don't you take a look at my family's new silk? This batch of fabrics made by my family's latest technology is of quite good quality! It is most suitable for nobles like Childe and Miss! ”
"Huh? New silk? ”
Suddenly hearing this name, the young man who had already made up his mind to leave moved in his heart, and followed to look at the board car that was slowly swaying.
"That's right! These are the latest additions this year! Little one can guarantee that you won't go to any other store! The guy nodded happily, and a look of pride appeared on his face!
"Huh?" Xiaohe, who was standing aside and was silent, heard this, suddenly looked at the guy, and asked, "Your Xiao family Buzhuang didn't only do business selling before?" Do you weave your own cloth now? ”
"Well, what this young lady said is not right, our family used to have its own weaving workshop, although it was a little smaller......"
The guy smiled at Xiaohe awkwardly, then looked around, and said in a mysterious voice: "However, so that the guest officer can know: our family has recently improved a loom, which is very powerful!" When weaving cloth, not only is it five or six times faster than the previous loom, but the things that are woven are better than those of others! Don't believe it, when you unload the goods later, you can see it! ”
"And this loom?" When the young man heard this, he raised his eyebrows and said, "This is fresh, you must take a good look!" If the silk is really good, you can buy a few back! ”
"Okay! Guest officer although rest assured, you are satisfied! "Dude probably loves to hear that! didn't wait for the young man to finish speaking, so he happily agreed, like he had already received a commission.
"Come here! Over here! I said, what kind of mule are you looking for, it's not as fast as a donkey! Hurry up and unload the car, there is a guest officer waiting to see the cloth! ”
The cart finally came under the anxious gaze of the guy, and the driver of the car raised his whip and gave a good command before stopping the car with the help of the guy.
The car was parked, and the nimble man had climbed into the car, and lifted the tarpaulin, revealing the rolls of silk cloth that covered the underneath.
These silks are beautiful! Even though they are all rolled up, they still reflect brilliant colors in the sunlight, like a dream.
"Look, how is this cloth?"
Jumping out of the car with a roll of silk in his arms, the man uncovered the end of the silk and held it in front of the young man.
The young man and Xiaohe came over together, frowning and looking at the silk in the man's hand.
In the eye, the warp and weft on the fabric are tightly clothed, and there is no broken thread or spider web-like remnants at all.
"This kid, shouldn't he have transported Shu Jin here to deceive me after the copper coin?"
The idea flashed through his mind, but it was quickly rejected by the young man.
Although he is not a connoisseur of silk, he still recognizes this kind of high-end goods as Shu brocade.
The silk in front of you, although the weaving method is somewhat different from the conventional one, is by no means the Shu brocade known for its gorgeousness.
"Young Master! Look at this satin! Just when the young man was suspicious, beside him, Xiaohe's hesitant voice came.
"What's wrong with the silk?" The young man was interrupted from his thoughts and asked impatiently.
Xiaohe pointed to the silk in front of him, stretched out his hand, twisted the surface of the fabric hard, and then said as if he couldn't believe it: "Young master, look, these seem to be cooked silk!" ”
"Huh?" The young man was startled when he heard this, and was about to take a closer look, but the guy next to him had already stretched out his thumb.
"This young lady has a good eye, and she can see at once that my family's cloth is different from other people's homes! That's right, these are all woven from cooked silk, and the color will not change for a long time, so you don't have to worry about the same as raw silk, and after two years, it will fade! ”
"These, are they all cooked silk?" The young man's face finally changed greatly this time, and he pointed to the cart of silk and asked.
"yes!"
"What method do you use to wash sericin! Don't tell me to use soap! ”
"Ahem, I didn't expect that Gongzi is also an expert, so I don't dare to hide it, the soaphorn is naturally not successful, it is too slow to wash, and it hurts the silk! If it is okay to use a small range of high-quality products, such a large scale as ours, you have to use the secret recipe at home, soap! ”
