Chapter 184: The Factory Outside the City
"So, you agree with me? Then today we will call the eldest brother, let's discuss it together, as soon as possible to promote this new model, these days we have also made a lot of silver, if you really want to invite embroidery girls again, it is better to buy a Zhuangzi outside the city, let all the embroidery girls go there to live, every day to work, the clothes made of them are transported back by carriage. Meng Xiaoran proposed just a modern factory, the more she talked, the more excited she became, and Shen Qian nodded again and again when she heard it.
"Okay, then let's go now, I didn't expect you to have so many good ideas, let's hurry up and discuss with Jingfeng, and I'll act after it's agreed." Shen Qian couldn't wait to implement these things, Meng Xiaoran couldn't help but smile when he saw this, nodded and said, "Okay, let's go." ”
The two got into the carriage and hurried back, Chen Jingfeng didn't go out today, he happened to be studying his medical books in the study, and was called out by Shen Qian, and was pulled away before he could figure out the situation, and the three of them went to Jinyifang together.
At this time, there was no one outside the brocade shop, because the quota for today's ten clothes was full, and there was only one man in the store watching, who was the husband of one of the embroiderers. ”
Shen Qian nodded and asked, "What about your shopkeeper?" ”
"The shopkeeper is in the backyard, and the little one is going to call him." Shen Qian waved his hand, "No need, let's go find him, you keep watch outside." ”
The middle-aged man nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes." ”
The three of them went straight to the study in the backyard, and the shopkeeper really sat in it to settle the accounts, and when they went in, the abacus was still crackling, and the shopkeeper stopped immediately when he saw them, stood up and saluted them, "Why don't you let people report when a few owners come?" The little ones are going out to greet you. ”
Shen Qian waved his hand, walked to the table and sat down, "We are here today to discuss the future development of Jinyifang, you are listening on the sidelines, and we will do it according to our final resolution." ”
The shopkeeper immediately nodded, "Yes, the small one is at the behest of the owner." ”
Shen Qian said all the thoughts Meng Xiaoran had just now, and the shopkeeper who was listening nodded again and again, but Chen Jingfeng said helplessly: "You also know that I don't know anything about this, I'm only interested in medical skills, you don't need to ask me about the operation of this shop, just the two of you call the shots."
Shen Qian smiled, "Although you don't understand, you still have to know, you are also the owner of this shop, of course you have to know." ”
"Okay, okay, I know, you can arrange this, I have no opinion." Chen Jingfeng waved his hand and said.
Shen Qian and Meng Xiaoran glanced at each other, nodded and said to the shopkeeper, "Did you hear what we said just now?" Immediately go and post a notice, stop taking over custom orders from tomorrow, the store will be closed, and it will reopen in ten days. ”
"Yes, let's arrange it for the little ones!" The shopkeeper listened to the instructions and knew what to do, and immediately went out to make arrangements.
Shen Qian also stood up and said to them: "I'm going to arrange it too, Xiao Ran, you have to work hard to draw some artwork these days, I will let the embroidery girl start to do it, according to what you said, ten pieces of different sizes will be made." ”
Meng Xiaoran nodded, "Then I'll go back with my eldest brother." ”
The three of them separated, and each went back to be busy, Meng Xiaoran told Ni Sheng all her plans, Ni Shang has learned a lot with her these days, and now she has made great progress, and Meng Xiaoran also plans to gradually let her do it.
"Ni Shang, you also go back to draw a few drawings today, if I think it's okay, you will paint the long-term style of the store in the future, and I will be mainly responsible for some customized artwork."
Nishang nodded, her face was full of joy, she had studied for more than half a month, and she finally had the opportunity to show it, so she was naturally excited.
"Girl, don't worry, I will work hard to draw well, and strive to share the girl's worries as soon as possible." Nishang was full of fighting spirit, her eyes were shining, this look made Meng Xiaoran very envious, it seemed that she was really old, and she could no longer find the passion of her youth.
The Jinyifang suddenly closed the door, and everyone gathered in front of the door to look at the notice and discuss, "Why did this Jinyifang close the door so well?" ”
"Who knows? Didn't it say it would open again in 10 days? Something must be going on? ”
"Yes, yes, something must have happened, let's see if they can drive in ten days."
Jinyifang closed the door, the happiest thing is the other garment shops in Yunzhou City, at this time, some people spread rumors, saying that Jinyifang Qiandonkey skills are poor, can not make clothes, so the door is closed, even more, it is said that Jinyifang is to provoke some dignitaries, so the door is closed.
Meng Xiaoran has been in retreat at home to draw drawings, naturally he doesn't know all this, Shen Qian has been busy preparing for Zhuangzi outside the city, and when he heard these rumors, it was already a few days later, he snorted with a cold face, "It's just some clowns who jump off the beam, it doesn't matter, we'll see in a few days, and then see what they say." ”
Qingfeng frowned, "Childe, do you want us to deal with it, this rumor is getting stronger, will it be bad for Jinyifang?" ”
"No need, the more the rumors spread, the better, at least it won't make everyone forget the existence of Jinyifang, and I have to thank these people for doing good things for us." Shen Qian smiled proudly, and Qingfeng suddenly realized.
Nishang worked hard for a few days, and finally stepped out of the door with a few drawings on this day, which were the most satisfactory to her paintings these days, she was a little nervous and excited, and came to Meng Xiaoran's door and hesitated for a long time before knocking on the door.
Meng Xiaoran had already drawn some drawings and sent them to Shen Qian, those embroiderers were already in full swing, she felt that her brain had been almost drained recently, and it was already blank at the moment, maybe she should rest for a while.
At this time, there was a knock at the door, and she knew that it should be Ni Shang, "Come in." ”
Nishang pushed the door open and came in, turned around and closed the door, walked to the desk, and said with a cramped face: "Girl, I have drawn a few pictures, you can help me see how it is." ”
Meng Xiaoran took the drawings in her hand, looked at them carefully, Ni Shang's hands were clasped together, her heart was beating like thunder, she was nervous, and after a long time, Meng Xiaoran put down the drawings, looked up at her, and then smiled.
"Ni Shang, you can do it, these artworks can be used, but you still have to continue to work hard, this is just the beginning, and it will get better and better in the future."
Nishang was overjoyed and stunned for a long time before reacting, "Really? Girl, am I really okay? ”
Meng Xiaoran looked at her excited appearance, and the calm and self-contained big girl in the prime minister's mansion in the past is really like two people, time and environment are really a wonderful thing, which can make a person change his nature, and can also let a person release his nature.
"Ni Shang, you heard it right, you are out of the school, in the future, this brocade shop will rely on you more, when Shen Qian prepares the Zhuangzi and the embroidery girl, I plan to send you to the Zhuangzi over there, and you will be responsible for it, if you see a girl with aura, you can also try to bring a few apprentices, and we will be relaxed in the future."
Listening to Meng Xiaoran's description of the bright future, Ni Shang was very excited, and finally shed tears for some reason, Meng Xiaoran watched her cry, first stunned, and then seemed to understand a little, and didn't know how to comfort her.
"Girl, your great kindness, Ni Shang has nothing to repay in this life, please accept Ni Shang and worship it." Saying that, she knelt on the ground, Meng Xiaoran immediately stood up to help her up, Nishang insisted on not wanting to get up, she wiped the tears on her face, "Girl, if it weren't for you, Nishang is afraid that she would have been a wisp of grievance on the mass grave, it was the girl who gave me the opportunity to be reborn, and now she has given Nishang hope for life, Nishang really can't repay it, I just want to say to you, I only want to be with the girl in this life, and I will never betray the girl." ”
After speaking, she lay down again, kowtowed three times, and finally stood up with Meng Xiaoran's support, "Nishang, I saved you that day just because I didn't want to see an innocent life die tragically, but also to repay the favor, you secretly helped each other many times in the Prime Minister's Mansion, I remember it in my heart, you don't have to thank me, if you want to thank yourself, thank yourself, it is the good karma you planted yourself, which has brought this good fruit." ”
Nishang shook her head, "Girl, you don't have to say it, I know all this, but I know better that the girl is good to me, I will always remember it, and please don't drive me away, let me always follow you, serve you, accompany you, just let me follow you." ”
Meng Xiaoran smiled, "You, you said it so absolutely, won't you marry in the future?" One day you will leave, and there will be a feast in the world. ”
Nishang shook her head and said with a resolute face: "Girl, Nishang doesn't marry, now that I have Jinyifang, I don't want to marry anymore, and it is my greatest wish to help the girl run Jinyifang well." ”
"Nishang, what do you ...... big brother Don't feel it anymore? Meng Xiaoran hesitated and asked.
Nishang was silent for a long time when she heard this, and finally shook her head, "Girl, I know that Brother Chen doesn't have me in his heart, except for Wei Xue, he only has his herbs in his heart, he only treats me as a family member, and I don't want to embarrass him, so don't talk about it anymore in the future, from now on, Brother Chen will just be a brother, and nothing else." ”
Meng Xiaoran nodded, "Okay, I won't mention it again, let's work together and work hard for Jinyifang." ”
"Yes." Nishang nodded, and the two looked at each other and smiled, no need for words.
Shen Qian's movements have always been very fast, and a few days later he came to Meng Xiaoran and said that Zhuangzi had been arranged, and the embroidery girl had been found, and they had all been arranged to go to Zhuangzi.
Meng Xiaoran immediately went to find Ni Shang, asked her to pack up her things immediately, and wanted to send her to Zhuangzi to manage the embroidery girl, and by the way, she concentrated on drawing drawings, and she also brought some simple drawings she had drawn in the past few days.
After everything was cleaned up, Meng Xiaoran got into the carriage with Ni Shang, Shen Qian became a groom for the first time, and the three of them rushed out of the city together.
