Guan Hua couldn't figure it out anyway, but it was just a few bells and whistles, how could a few women still get more and more familiar with each other, and they could still be invited into the house to talk about it as a big thing?

Silk carving, also known as engraving, is an ancient handicraft art. Different from traditional embroidery and weaving, silk requires the use of a special loom, with raw silk as the warp and colored cooked silk as the weft, which is a plain weave fabric that is completed by picking the warp and showing the weft. Due to the delicate picture and complex craftsmanship, it is usually used for the dragon robe woven for the emperor or for imitating the calligraphy and painting of celebrities, and there has always been a saying that 'one inch of silk is one inch of gold'.

The hometown of the landlord Ye Sanniang is Yejiazhuang outside Gusu City, which is famous for its silk skills. Gusu Ye's family, which is also a very famous surname in the local area, is known for the exquisite craftsmanship of embroidery girls, and has worked for the Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau since his ancestors, and it is said that he also participated in the production of dragon robes for the emperor. However, due to the continuous war in the northwest, the Ministry of Internal Affairs has cut expenditures year after year, and the demand for high-end luxury goods such as silk fabrics has plummeted, so that the Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau has to greatly reduce the number of embroiderers.

However, the silk skills are different from ordinary embroidery and textiles, and it takes at least three to five years for an ordinary skilled embroiderer to become a teacher, not only to learn the basic silk skills, but also to have attainments in calligraphy and painting. After all, those who can afford silk products are aristocrats, and they have high requirements for taste and aesthetics.

Not only that, the embroiderer who specializes in making silk, even if it is a very skilled master, can weave an inch or two at most in a whole day with a four-foot wide format, which is really a time-consuming and laborious job.

"That's a really good thing."

Li Xuezhu held the one-foot-square handkerchief in his hand and was full of praise: "This "Yanxiu Forest Residence Map" was originally an ink on silk in the Song Dynasty, and the beauty of the artistic conception of the landscape is fully displayed between the square inches of the size of the fan. Xia Gui's paintings, with clear layers before and after, smooth brushwork and dripping ink, are the best of the Song Dynasty landscape paintings. ”

Ye Sanniang shook her head when she heard this: "Although Yingniang's embroidery skills are indeed extremely exquisite, it's just that this color is too monotonous!" I thought, now that I have taken it to the shops in the capital to give people a look, I should also take some bright colors and festive patterns, just like the peonies, plum blossoms, and phoenixes hanging in the embroidery village on Qianmen Street. Don't bury our good craftsmanship in vain, don't you? ”

As soon as these words came out, it really made Li Xuezhu feel that he was speechless.

I didn't expect that sisters raised in the same land and water would have such a big difference in their views on the problem? is not just a pure layman, this is probably also the worst time that the ink painting of the Song Dynasty was hacked, and it was actually defeated by the colorful Danfeng Chaoyang? The four families of the Southern Song Dynasty don't look at each other.

Li Xuezhu sighed weakly, and was not sure how to answer her words, but saw Ye Ying smile generously at her: "This girl is a knowledgeable person." ”

Li Xuezhu was a little embarrassed, and carefully handed back the fabric with both hands: "Actually, silk is a rare thing that is not common in Beijing. I have been fortunate enough to see a few Song paintings that are also copies before, and they are not as good as this one in terms of fineness and charm. I don't know much about silk, but I happen to have a bit of knowledge in calligraphy and painting, you laugh. ”

Yingniang said: "What the girl said is very true. Silk is different from ordinary embroidery, it is a very laborious thing. Just like this piece of ink landscape, it was made by my master, and it took nearly two months. Now although she is skilled, the best embroiderer in our town, and the most valuable craftsman in the Jiangnan Weaving Bureau, she is old after all, and her body and energy are not as good as before, so there are fewer and fewer boutiques like this. ”

As she spoke, she sighed and recalled: "In the past, I was in the silk industry, and the income of an ordinary embroidery lady could easily support a large family. Especially during the New Year's Festival or the sacrificial ceremony, in addition to the royal regulations in the palace, you can also receive many orders for custom embroidery from nobles and high-ranking officials, whether it is made into a dress or given as a gift, it is both decent and noble. ”

This is true.

When Li Xuezhu ran a money village in the capital, in order to decorate the façade, he also purchased several small-sized silk calligraphy and paintings. Don't look at such a small one, the quality is far worse than the one in Yingniang's hand, but it can also be worth hundreds of taels of silver.

Ye Sanniang also answered:

"Exactly! I still remember that at that time, the little girl born in our town began to learn to weave silk threads at the age of five or six; When he reached the age of teens, he would be sent by his family to the embroidery workshop to be apprenticed to the silk master. But this line of talent requirements are extremely high, sitting in front of the silk machine is a few hours not to say, but also to fingers dexterous, delicate, calm, sit still, will be left as an apprentice. ”

When Ye Sanniang said this, she looked at Ying Niang with envy in her eyes, and Ying Niang was a little embarrassed: "Hmm." At that time, if a girl from any family was selected by the embroidery workshop to be an apprentice, it was really the glory of the family! Because as long as you can get out of the school smoothly, with this craft, the family can have no worries about food and clothing, and the real thing is to serve a golden rice bowl. ”

Li Xuezhu guessed in her heart: Yingniang is probably the most talented child in their family, right?

Speaking of the past time, the two looked at each other and smiled, but Yingniang immediately changed her words and said: "It's a pity that the good times didn't last long." With the war in the northwest, the orders of our embroidery workshop are getting fewer and fewer. From rushing to work for several nights in a row, to not receiving new orders for several months, slowly, embroidery girls have to find other ways to make money, or simply change careers. ”

Li Xuezhu couldn't help but feel sorry. No matter what industry you are in, as long as you encounter a war, it will become depressed, and after the income decreases, the people's life will not be easy. Businessmen, in particular, are most afraid of troubled times.

"It used to be the hottest profession in town, but now that the market is sluggish, everyone pooled money to send me to the capital to find a new buyer. Or, it's better to find a bank to borrow some money to get everyone through it. In fact, I also know that this market is probably not a good time to open an embroidery workshop, but this is because our industry is special - embroidery girls usually can't change careers. Because once you change careers and do something else, it will be difficult to pick up the craftsmanship of the year. ”

As she spoke, she stretched out her hands, the green and jade ten fingers were pointed, the fingers were slender, soft as boneless, and there were beautiful long nails, which looked carefully trimmed.

If you just look at these amateur hands, because they are extremely well maintained, you feel that she should be a young girl in her prime.

Li Xuezhu couldn't help but praise: "What a beautiful pair of hands." ”

Ying Niang smiled faintly: "Because I am an embroiderer, then these hands can't do anything else except silk." ”

Li Xuezhu couldn't help but be stunned: "Why is this?" ”

"Look at this nail, it's not for the sake of looking good, it's for the sake of separating the thread."

Yingniang explained: "A silk thread like a hair has to be broken into three or five threads before it can be used, and it all depends on the work on this nail. Even daily laundry and cooking will hurt the nails, once the nails are broken, it will greatly reduce the efficiency, and may even scratch the woven surface. ”

Li Xuezhu also learned the craft of female red when she was at home, although she had never seen silk, but she knew what a delicate job it was. If the embroiderer only has a pair of rough hands, I am afraid it will be difficult to do it.

"Every finger has to be very sensitive. When sitting in front of the silk machine, they are like part of the loom. In order to ensure that the whole machine can function properly, it is necessary to ensure that every component is in good condition. ”

Li Xuezhu nodded: "Understood." That is to say, even in everyday situations, every embroiderer has to be supported with silver. Because these precious hands can't do anything else, the cost of daily expenses will also be high. ”

Yingniang said yes, and sighed again: "The so-called craftsmen eat with this skill." Therefore, once you choose to change careers, all the skills you have learned hard in the past few years will be wasted, and I am afraid it will be difficult to pick them up in the future. I thought that if everyone could grit their teeth and hold on to the embroidery workshop, it would definitely be better in the future. ”

Li Xuezhu agreed with her vision.

In fact, whether you are in business or as a craftsman, any market will not only rise or fall, there will always be ups and downs, good and bad. Like those time-honored brands in Beijing that have been around for more than 100 years, which one has not experienced market depression, war, vicious competition among peers and the like? If you change careers and do something else when you encounter adversity, where will there be a century-old store and an industry leader?

"I think I should give it a try." Li Xuezhu said: "I won't tell you, I was also a money bank before, and you have encountered such a situation." You can use the embroidery workshop as collateral, and you should be able to borrow money to tide over the current difficulties. ”

Yingniang shook her head and said, "I tried." I took the silk samples of the embroidery workshop, the title deed, and the contract documents that I had worked with the weaving bureau and the big business in the past to show the shopkeeper of the money bank, but they all said no. ”

"Why? The reason? ”

"Most of the girls who are apprentices in our embroidery workshop are in their early twenties, which is the age when they are about to get married. But generally those who plan to be an embroiderer for the rest of their lives usually do not choose to marry so early, because now is the golden period for learning crafts. ”

Yingniang's face was embarrassed: "However, if the embroidery workshop continues to be depressed, the choice of the girls is to either marry or change careers." Therefore, most of the money banks think that the risk is too great, and if the girls are scattered like this, we will not be able to repay the loan. ”

Li Xuezhu couldn't help frowning: This is very in line with the review practice of risk assessment when money banks lend money. If the borrower is a woman, her husband's or in-laws' ability to repay is usually assessed first. But for a special profession like an embroiderer, I'm afraid this level will be stuck.

But there are always exceptions.

Li Xuezhu said: "Where are the paperwork you brought?" Can you show me? ”

Yingniang was stunned for a moment, and hope suddenly rose in her eyes: "Can you help me find a way?" ”

Li Xuezhu smiled: "Anyway, I have been in the money business for a few years before. I don't have the ability to verify documents and assess asset risks. If you can trust me, I can help you take a look. ”

Princess Le Ning was quite satisfied with the finished product made today, nodded and called a palace maid, and instructed: "Go and bring the few Shu brocades sent by the queen mother last month." Then he said to Guan Xiaoduo: "I know that you have been very busy these days, and I specially called you into the palace, delaying you a lot of work, so I'm embarrassed."
