Chapter 233: Launch of the Down Jacket
Xue Wu drove directly to the embroidery workshop.
When Xue Mu saw her, she hurriedly pulled her into the house and counted her: "Why do you wear so little?" What if you get sick from the wind and get a chill? ”
He poured hot tea for her again, and wrapped her in a cloak.
Xue Wu handed over her hot hand, "Mother, you touch it, my hand is hot." I'm not cold at all, I'm still a little hot. ”
Mother Xue: "You just rely on your youth and don't take your body seriously, and when you get old and sick in the future, you will all find it." ”
"Mother, listen to what I tell you."
At this time, the maid in the store had already brought in several large bags of eiderdown from her car, and Xue Wu opened one of the bags, "Mother, look, what is this?" ”
Xue Mu took a closer look and grabbed another handful in her hand, the same as white cotton wool, but much fluffier and softer than cotton wool, she really didn't recognize what it was for a while.
"It's eiderdown."
She took out a short down jacket from her bag, "This dress is made of duck down, it is light and warm, much warmer than a padded jacket, don't you believe it and try it." ”
Under her instructions, Xue Mu took off the jacket on her body first, and before she could feel the cold, the down jacket was quickly wrapped around her body.
After putting it on, Xue's mother found that it was really as Xue said, the down jacket was really light and warm.
"Mother, do you believe it now? I'm wearing a down jacket, so I'm not afraid of the cold. ”
Xue Wu followed up and took out a book of down jacket design drawings drawn in advance and explained it to her.
"Mother, when I went back this time, I saw Xue Qing plucking the ducks, thinking that it was a pity that so many duck feathers were lost, so I picked out the relatively small and soft fluff and made a quilt, but the quilt was very warm after being covered, and it was very light, like a feather.
"I thought, since this duck fluff can be made into a quilt, can it also be made into clothes? I took Xue Xiu to try it out, and after making it, I wore it on my body, which was much warmer and lighter than a padded jacket. However, Xue Qing's craftsmanship can't be compared with yours, so I brought the rest of the eiderdown. Now that it's cold, it's a good time to push the down jacket out. ”
Xue Mu was overjoyed to get such a novel clothing material, and immediately devoted herself to the production of down jackets.
Xue Wu had no choice but to admonish: "Mother, you just need to know that this thing is eiderdown, don't tell anyone else, we have to keep it secret." ”
Xue Mu said angrily: "Is my mother the one who doesn't know how to measure?" Alright, you don't have to worry about it. ”
In fact, Xue Wu is not very worried that others will know, after all, the eiderdown she takes out now has been treated by cleaning techniques and centrifugal arrays, and it has been dehydrated in the refining furnace, which is very different from the original appearance, it is really white as snow, light as flocculent, and there is no smell at all.
Even if others know it's eiderdown, what if? There is no condition to get duck down of the same quality as her.
Duck down, after all, is taken off the duck, and if it is not handled well, bacteria, stains and odors are indispensable.
Of course, it would be better if one less person knew.
Mother Xue is responsible for taking embroidery and making clothes, and sales are the sole responsibility of Mrs. Qiao.
Knowing that Xue Wu had come up with another rare thing, Qiao Niangzi was very excited, "This down jacket, no one else has it, just our family, and the duck down is extremely difficult to get, so the price has to be set higher." ”
Xue Wan nodded, "Not only is the price high, but only customization is accepted, and the quantity is limited, and a maximum of six pieces can be sold a month." ”
"Okay, I've got it in my heart."
When Zhao Ji's new three diets were very popular, and when the down jacket of the golden threaded clothes spread in the upper circles, Xue Wu was no longer in the city, but came to Qingshui Town.
That is the town where she once took Xue Yao to sell embroidery.
This time, she came to invite a master architect out of the mountain.
Coincidentally, she had seen this master builder before, it was the owner of the Zhouji grocery store, Zhou Ao.
This is a bull man, and many famous buildings in Daqi were built under his design and guidance, such as the Great Compassion Temple in the imperial capital, Tianyong Academy, and the big stone bridge in Yujing City.
Ghost Crying Forest has been bought by Chen Tian, and it only cost one hundred taels, almost the price of cabbage, and even the government has additionally enclosed a large area of land around it, half selling it and half giving it to him.
The land with a total area of more than a few hectares was taken into Xue Yu's pocket in this way, and the owner of the land, the government, got rid of a big trouble, but Yu Xue took a big bargain.
Now that the land is there, the next step is development.
Xue Wu didn't understand the construction thing, and the development of such a large piece of land naturally could not be done by relying on her half-baked design level, and she must hire a professional talent.
Xue Wu went directly to the pawnshop in the world to buy information related to architects, and got a list of architects, many of whom were feng shui masters.
In this era, there are really many feng shui masters who know architecture, after all, there is no special architect in this era, and architects are often concurrently served by feng shui masters.
The reason why Xue Wu chose Zhou Ao was because of his golden resume in the past.
This one can be called a master architect, if he can be invited to be the chief architect of the school, the school built by that time will definitely meet her vision.
It's just that the information also mentions that Zhou Ao has basically "washed his hands in a golden basin" now and no longer takes jobs.
Xue Wu wanted to come over and give it a try.
There was only one door left in the grocery store, and when Xue Wu entered, Zhou Ao was sitting behind the brazier roasting water chestnuts, and the things on the shelves in the shop were placed very casually, and the variety was not very complete.
Even if a guest came, Zhou Ao didn't say hello, and picked up the water chestnuts in the brazier.
At this time, it was just winter, and it was far from the time to burn the brazier, so Zhou Ao used it, which shows that he is very afraid of the cold.
His big yellow dog was lying on his stomach by the brazier, as lazy as his owner.
Xue Wu didn't rush to talk to his old man, but walked around the shop, last time she came, she found three things containing purple gas here, a small grocery store can be described as "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", this time, I don't know if I can find anything good.
She was disappointed in the results.
The furnishings in the shop are basically the same as when she came before, the only difference is that the dust on the shelves is thicker, which shows how cold the business is.
Xue Wu took two things meaningfully and walked to the counter to settle the bill.
"Boss, how much do these two things cost?"
Zhou Ao glanced at it, "Five taels." ”
Xue Wan: "......"
It's just a wooden spoon and a wooden comb! Looking at the material, it is not so unusual, and there is no purple gas on it, so it costs five taels of silver?
Those few things last time still contain purple gas!
Wait, everything in this shop isn't going to be that expensive, is it? If that's the case, then the last time he offered a high price, maybe it wasn't because of the extraordinary origin of those things, but just because he was so willful.
In order to verify the guess in her heart, Xue Wu went over and took a pair of chopsticks and asked the price again, but this time it was even more outrageous.
