The old craftsman doesn't know how to sew clothes, and it is more difficult than climbing to the sky.

He has never married a wife in his life, and he is the only one in and out of the family. Fortunately, there is only one single, but he will not starve to death. It's just that this shirt has to be bought at the cloth shop outside, and the clothes can rarely be bought that fit, and it is inevitable that a tailor will have to be found to change it.

Ordinary tailors do not cut clothes for ordinary people, and most of them are specially raised by rich and noble families and cloth shops. It costs a lot of money to change a piece of clothing.

Therefore, in the impression of the old craftsman, ready-to-wear is a luxury jewelry, and it is very expensive.

But since Qin Xiang used a sewing machine and made him two regular clothes, the old craftsman was very rare about this machine.

Who would have thought that such a small machine could have such a big creation.

"How did you grow this brain?" The old craftsman looked at the sewing machine obsessively, praising and curious. "Clever and amazing."

Qin Xiang pursed his lips and smiled, and said, "A flash of inspiration, plus a long time of accumulation. I'm just a beginner product, so it's not too convenient. It would be great if you had time and could improve this machine. ”

During the rain, the old craftsman stayed in the carpentry workshop and did not go anywhere. Fortunately, there is rice and grain, but there is a lack of vegetables and vegetables, but it is not a big problem. He had a lot of free time, so he simply picked up tools and made a few more sewing machines.

"Are you using this cloth to make clothes?" The old craftsman glanced at the dirty piece of fabric in Qin Xiang's hand and shook his head: "Your cloth is all bad." ”

"It's raining, it's okay. If you can really make a good finished product, you can also help the shopkeeper Zhao. ”

Since Qin Xiang decided to enter the garment industry, he naturally needs collaborators. She was different about this and didn't know how to choose the right fabric. Who would have thought that someone would hand over the pillow when he was sleepy, and the shopkeeper Zhao would crash into the door.

Nowadays, although the clothes used are flat cuts, the popular styles are more fabric-intensive, so Qin Xiang wants to introduce some modern clothing concepts.

Of course, she doesn't choose to change too much, which will be difficult for customers to accept. However, it is not difficult to make it look similar to the current clothing style.

For example, the popular national style and retro Chinese clothing styles in the previous life can always take a lot of money out of consumers' pockets.

"I'm going to try to do it first. You don't hate me for messing with you, do you? Qin Xiang said playfully.

The old craftsman shook his head again and again, "I know that your doll has a lot of brains, and there must be some powerful tricks to use." I'm going to do nothing else, just see what you're going to do with this fabric in the end. ”

Lin Qingmiao was confused, she didn't know what the owner was talking about here, as if she was going to make clothes, in short, she herself was in the clouds.

"I'm going to go to Yahang later, let's see if you can stop by and buy a few people back." You used to live alone in Xijing, but now that the woodworking workshop has expanded, your old buddies have to live here, and someone has to take care of your three meals a day. What's more, some jobs also need to have a handicap. ”

When the old craftsman heard this, he thought it was the same.

"Let's go check it out. But I'll be sure, I'm not picking an apprentice. ”

Qin Xiang smiled, not knowing how he tilted the topic to find an apprentice.

Boarding the carriage, she said to the old craftsman, "I think the carpentry workshop is good, but it needs to be cleaned up again." I've had a workshop reserved for me to try to make clothes there when the time comes. ”

"Wow, you're still pretending to be a public servant." The old craftsman frowned and said, "Then you tell you what you want to do with this cloth?" ”

Qin Xiang was really going to be amused by him, no wonder everyone said that old children, this elderly man really has more curiosity than children.

"It's for clothes. You'll know when you're done. Seeing that the old craftsman still wanted to ask, Qin Xiang could only say helplessly: "It's very fast with a sewing machine." But by the way, you can make a little thing for me first. ”

As he spoke, he arrived at the tooth shop.

As soon as Qin Xiang entered the door, he found that there were many people in the tooth shop. Some came to look for work, and more sold their children.

After asking Yalang in Yaxing, I learned that Fucheng didn't have a big basket because the county lord handled it properly. However, some of the surrounding households have suffered from disasters.

Some families are already poor, and this heavy rain hits, and it is completely impossible to make ends meet. Especially in today's era, there are at least two children in the family, and five or six are the norm.

Therefore, whenever there is a problem at home, it has become a common thing to sell children.

Qin Xiang looked at a few little dolls that were not very old, and felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.

Although I know that this is the most normal thing in this era, I can't accept it.

A few little dolls are smart, knowing that this good-looking fairy-like person in front of them is the one who can control their lives, and they all look at Qin Xiang with bright eyes, and they are all pitiful.

The children of the Zhuang family naturally cannot be compared with the rich family. Not to mention the pudding on the clothes on the body, and even several of them didn't even wear shoes. Plus the dirt on the body, it looks like it was pulled out of a mud pond.

But Qin Xiang wants an adult who can work, what can she do if she buys such a young child?

Probably seeing Qin Xiang's hesitation, the little dolls rushed to say: "Madame, buy me, I eat less, only half a steamed bun a day." ”

"Buy me, I've got a lot of strength."

"Buy Me ......"

"Buy ......"

Qin Xiang's eyebrows couldn't help frowning, thinking about what to do with this group of little guys.

Seeing this scene, Yalang scolded a few little dolls fiercely.

Suddenly, everyone was silent.

"Madam, these small ones were just sent today, and they haven't been trained yet, and they don't understand the rules, so I hope Madame won't be weird."

Qin Xiang glanced at the tooth lang who nodded, and couldn't help but ask, "Where will these small ones be sold in the future?" ”

Na Yalang felt that Qin Xiang's question was a little funny, but he still said seriously: "Like those big families who come to choose people, they like to choose some young ones to go back and teach." If he is better-looking, he will be sent to the building. ”

Today's world is all about buying slaves, and slaves are the private property of the master's family, and the government will not care if they are killed. Therefore, Qin Xiang mostly came to the dental store to hire people.

But when Yalang said this, she suddenly had an idea.

"I want all these children, give me the lowest price."

The group came out of the tooth shop, Lin Qingmiao was still a little confused, and after a while, he couldn't help but ask: "What is the owner doing when he buys so many children back?" ”

"I've thought about it. Now I also make a little bit of money and am able to help some people in need. There are also many poor villages around Fucheng, and there are not a few people who can't afford to eat. I'm going to build a craft hall to take in such children and teach them some skills. When they grow up in the future, they will also be able to have a skill. ”

Qin Xiang didn't know if her choice was right, but at present, she could only do it for them.

She can't stop the sale of her children, so she can only do her best to help these children.

It is better to teach them to read and write and learn some skills than to rely on their own strength and be poor for a lifetime.

The old craftsman silently listened to what Qin Xiang said, and said with emotion: "Qin's shopkeeper is noble! There are a few people in the world who can do this. ”

Qin Xiang blushed at what he said, and waved his hand again and again: "It's just a trivial matter." ”

But the old craftsman shook his head and said, "You teach them some skills, even if it is just a little female red needle, and the children you teach are different from those of other families." In the future, I will be able to live on my own ability, so that I will not be bullied. Shopkeeper Qin has done this, and I, an old man, have also made a contribution. When your workshop is finished, I'll go teach the children. ”

Lin Qingmiao hadn't read much, but he also understood that what Qin Xiang had done was a great thing.

"You can sign a contract with them, and if they learn well, they can go to work in our shop. Those who have been raised by themselves can use it with peace of mind. ”

Qin Xiang thought about it and felt that it was too.

This is like some student aid companies in the previous life, providing grants to some poor students. When they finish their studies, they will enter the enterprise to work, which is considered a mutually beneficial initiative.

"If a garment factory can be built, it will indeed require a lot of manpower. Moreover, Mr. Yang's carpentry workshop should not only be a small fight, but also expand in the future. ”

When the old craftsman heard this, he laughed: "I'm an old man who makes furniture, and I can do something big." ”

"Well, that's not how it works. Nowadays, each family will find a carpenter to make furniture, but what if we design it ourselves and then make the finished product in the shop for people to buy? Wardrobe these, may not be bought by every household. But some small wood products are still on sale. ”

Qin Xiang drew a big cake for the old craftsman, and as for how to implement it, she had to plan it carefully.

The old craftsman picked a two-and-a-half-old boy from the tooth shop, served as an apprentice, and brought it back to the carpentry workshop.

Qin Xiang and Lin Qingmiao went to the chicken farm.

The chicken farm is in shambles, because the terrain is relatively low-lying, and the water is spreading very badly. The ground used to be flat, it would be muddy, mixed with chicken droppings, and it would stink.

Some workers were hurrying to pull away the dead chicks and bury them, and according to Qin Xiang's instructions, sprinkled with medicinal powder.

"You're here, shopkeeper." The steward of the chicken farm rubbed his hands together and looked guilty. "A lot of chicks died."

Qin Xiang walked into the chicken coop and took a look, and the loss was indeed heavy.

"It's also my carelessness, there has never been such a heavy rain in the local area, so I negligently led to the current consequences, and I can't blame you. Level the ground as soon as possible and buy some chicks. ”

Qin Xiang's headache is that the breeds raised in chicken farms are all very ordinary local chickens, and the difficulty of breeding is not high, but they grow very slowly. As a finished chicken, it will take about half a year to say the least, which greatly affects the business of eating chicken.

"Inquire about any varieties that grow fast......

Walking around, I have missed lunch.

Qin Xiang ate some chicken casually, and had to rush to the woodworking workshop.

She had to wash the material before designing it. As for the ready-to-wear garments, whether they can be accepted by consumers is also a question.
