Chapter 15: The Strength of the Pit Master
Back at the residence, Zhen Xi had an idea in his heart.
"His Royal Highness King Li, tomorrow I want to take a day off." Zhen Xi, who had already changed his clothes, said.
"No!" Refusal from Chu Beili **naked.
"What about half a day?" Zhenxi takes retreat as advance.
"No! If something happens to this king in the past half a day, can you be responsible? Chu Beili asked rhetorically.
Zhen Xi was a little speechless, she could have lived a good life before she came, maybe someone would assassinate him every day when she came?
"Before you, this king has already sacrificed a few dead soldiers, and it depends on your ability whether you are the next one." Chu Beili seemed to understand what Zhen Xi was thinking.
Zhen Xi didn't expect that he would be pampered every day, and King Li, who spent all day drinking, would also live in danger all day long.
Since you don't give leave, you will go out by yourself. Zhen Xi thought in his heart.
At noon one day, Chu Beili was rarely at home, and Zhen Xi slipped out under the pretext of excuse.
She went straight to Qian Ji Buzhuang and walked in.
This cloth village is a more famous cloth village in Zhaojing, and there are more guests, even so, as soon as Zhen Xi stepped into the door, Xiao Er came to greet him.
"Guest, do you want cloth or clothes?"
Zhen Xi didn't answer him, she looked at the cloth to herself, she came this time to solve the embarrassment of falling into the water last time, she wanted to wear pants!
The shopkeeper has the eyesight, Zhen Xi ignored him, he was not annoyed, and when he saw Zhen Xi choosing the cloth by himself, he was about to introduce it: "Guest officer, what kind of cloth do you want?" Why don't you take a look at the new ...... in our store?"
Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Zhen Xi: "Do you have cotton cloth in your store?"
The shopkeeper glanced her up and down, and looked at this outfit that didn't look like a master with no money.
"Didn't you?" Zhen Xi saw that he didn't answer and asked again.
"Yes, yes, but the price of cotton cloth is low, and few people in our store buy it, so you have to go to the warehouse to pick up the goods, can you wait a minute?"
"Yes, but faster, I don't have that much time."
Xiao Er scratched his head and entered the back room.
There are people coming and going in this money shop, business is really booming, many rich people will choose cloth and clothes here, Zhen Xi found a place on the side and sat down.
As soon as I sat down, I saw the shopkeeper who was counting put down his abacus and walked towards the door with a smile.
Zhen Xi looked at the door curiously, only to see that the person who came was wearing a haze blue robe with a mask on his face...... The person who came was the iron mask!
Zhen Xi's heart trembled when she saw this, she subconsciously lowered her head and stretched out her hand to put it in front of her forehead. Since she was sold to King Li, she has never returned to the Moon Full Building, nor has she seen him! Zhen Xi complained about him, because she heard that someone wanted to buy Xiao Ying at a high price, but he didn't agree, but he sold her, how could she not complain.
Although she complained about him, she still pricked up her ears to listen to his conversation with the shopkeeper.
"Boss, what is the reason why you came here this time?" The shopkeeper greeted him with a face, and when he said this, this money is also the property of the full moon building.
"If I have nothing to do today, I will come and have a look." Iron Mask looked around Buzhuang and saw a black figure in the corner, even if he lowered his head to block his face, he could recognize her at a glance, his gaze just swept over, and he didn't stop too much, then looked away.
"Take the accounts of the past half a year to the inner hall, I have seen it." With that, he walked out of the side door of the shop, and the shopkeeper packed up the accounts and followed.
Zhen Xi raised his head at this time, looking at the resolute and upright back, he suddenly had some doubts, this back seemed to have been seen somewhere, but he couldn't remember it for a while.
"Look, officer, do you want this kind of cloth?" The shopkeeper took some cloth of different colors for Zhen Xi to look at.
Zhen Xi touched the fabric, it was very comfortable, and it felt different from modern cotton, but the modern fabric was woven, which was definitely different from this hand-woven.
"That's it," the cotton cloth is very breathable, Zhen Xi picked a few pieces of cotton cloth and continued, "You have a tailor in the cloth village, right?" ”
"Of course there is, the tailors of our cloth village are among the best in Zhaojing." The shopkeeper said proudly, "I'll call you."
Soon, the shopkeeper brought a 50-year-old tailor over and said, "Objective, the tailor has brought it to you, just tell him what clothes you want to make." ”
"Hello master, can you understand these pictures I draw?" Zhen Xi took out a few drawings of modern casual clothes drawn with a brush and showed them to the old tailor, saying that they were drawings, but in fact they were just a few simple flat paintings, the shape was visible, and the structure was difficult to say.
The old tailor looked at the drawings, frowned, and said, "What are you drawing?" ”
Well, I really couldn't understand it, Zhen Xi explained while gesturing: "This is clothing, clothes of this shape." ”
Hearing Zhen Xi's explanation, the old tailor's brows furrowed even tighter, and he muttered, "Who are you going to make clothes for, so strange?" ”
Zhen Xi looked embarrassed, the women here all wore skirts, no one had ever worn pants, not even underwear, if she said that she made it for herself, maybe this old-fashioned old tailor wouldn't make it for her.
"It's for... For King Li, it is more convenient to ride a horse and shoot arrows or something. Zhen Xi didn't panic, and he stuttered a little when he lied.
Speaking of this, she suddenly remembered that the noble identity of King Li did not seem to match this cotton cloth, so she added: "Uh... Of course, this fabric is for us subordinates, and King Li's clothes should be made of high-quality fabrics, master, do you think you can make it? ”
The old tailor looked at the drawing repeatedly, and said, "It's not difficult, but..." ”
Uh, how do you say this? Zhen Xi thought for a while and whispered in the old tailor's ear: "This is King Li's profane pants." "At the critical moment, the master is used to pit!
Although the old tailor was a little embarrassed, these princes and nobles had fun on weekdays, and they were accustomed to such things.
"When will it happen?" Zhen Xi asked.
"The first time this clothing is made, it will take at least ten days and half a month, you go and pay the deposit first, and write down the size."
