"Open an embroidery workshop to make money."

Chang's eyes lit up, but soon she became puzzled again.

"If you pass on your craftsmanship, what if those embroidery girls run away, it's not for nothing that you have cultivated a competitor."

"Mother, you don't have to worry about this. The family has been doing it for so many years, so it naturally has a set of ways to prevent spreading. It's just that our conditions are not mature at the beginning, and we may have to work harder for our own people. ”

Chang nodded, if this world wants to make money, it is not hard, she has already prepared in her heart.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were talking carefully in the room, and after a while, they heard Hong barking outside, saying that the chickens in the front yard had gone to the vegetable field in the backyard.

Chang got up and wanted to go out to have a look.

"Don't be in a hurry about this matter first, we'll take you to town tomorrow, and then discuss it with your father."

There are many things in the family, so it is more convenient to go outside.

In the evening, Song Tian knew that the family didn't even say anything after eating the loose meal, so he worked harder and harder.

Song Ercai chatted with his son, said that he would send him to town if he saved enough money, and took out two books to give to him.

Song Tian took it and looked at it and found that it was copied by his father.

Nowadays, books are very valuable, and you can't buy any book without two taels of silver, even if it is copied by others, it costs hundreds of dollars.

Song Tian is very precious, and he commented on the articles he made to his father.

Now the father and son have formed a tacit understanding, and every time Song Er returns home, Song Tian will take out poems and articles for him to read.

Seeing his son's progress, Song Ercai was glad that he had made the decision to split up.

The next day, Song Er got up early and went to the town with his things on his back.

Chang's and Ah Xiu had breakfast before leaving, and Song Ercai had already told the old man yesterday that he would pay for the work in the second room and hire people when the farm was busy.

No one cares where Chang wants to go now, she took Ah Xiu to take the ox cart in the village to do business, and it was still early to go to the town.

Song Ercai was busy for a while some time ago, and now he is free, and he happened to be in the house to settle accounts when the two of them arrived.

Knowing that they were coming, Song Er cooked tea in advance and bought meat buns.

The meat buns in the town are quite delicious, Ah Xiu was greedy, and after nibbling on a white fat meat bun, he slowly told his plan.

The purpose of opening a fabric shop is to make top-notch embroidery in the future, and I am very particular about the material.

If you want to say that the family in the south of the Yangtze River has its own mulberry field and silkworm garden, it will come to the forefront of exploration and innovation for a long time.

Their current conditions are not ripe, and they can open a small cloth shop in the town, so that it is convenient to get materials, and the Song family, who has no experience in this field, can slowly learn and explore.

And doing business is not something you can do with your skills, business is another unique skill, how to maximize your own interests, rather than becoming someone else's money-making tool, which is very important.

Although Song Ercai already has business experience and is doing a good job, it is impossible for them to quit their job before they have been able to develop at the beginning, after all, the one or two silver dollars he earns are very important.

Therefore, after the shop opened, it was basically the work of Chang's and Ah Xiu.

"Mother, I will teach you all the stitches I have learned now. The most used needle method is a set of needles, the people in the embroidery workshop we only need to teach one of the steps, they get are semi-finished products, can not touch the full set, it is difficult to penetrate the mystery. ”

"On the side of Jiangnan's own family, an embroidery workshop is only responsible for one set of stitches, and although the housekeeper embroiderers have learned all of a set of stitches, they are all house slaves. This basically stops the spread of stitches, even if there is a smart embroidery girl infiltrated, she is a big deal to take away a set, and the family alone sells dozens of embroidery stitches on the market. Not only that, but the family also has a mastery of top-notch stitching techniques, and if they come across valuable custom products, they will do it themselves. ”

Ah Xiu said those things one by one, and Song Ercai, who had been the shopkeeper for several years, was also stunned.

In this way, the difficulty of opening an embroidery workshop is to prevent the spread of craftsmanship.

"Ah Xiu, you said earlier that the fabric supply over there is from Pingyang, and in the city, do you have a familiar trading house?"

Ah Xiu nodded: "Dad, this time we open a shop, you don't have to bother to find a business house, go directly to the long street in the south of the city, where there is a Yuanming Building, the shopkeeper's surname is Xu, you find him, just say that it was introduced by Master Fang, and he will supply us at the lowest price." ”

Even after finding the source of goods, Song Ercai glanced at Chang Shi and looked at the little girl next to him, becoming more and more incredible.

Ah Xiu was still immersed in the plan and continued: "According to the previous experience of opening a shop on the side of the family, if it is just a small shop in the market town, the silver taels required for the initial fabric supply will be about ten taels, and as long as it does not expand in the future, the fluctuation will not be too large, plus renting a house, people and employees, we need to prepare at least twelve taels of silver." ”

"The shop is open, and the matter of the embroidery workshop is about to be put on the agenda. The first batch of embroiderers is very important, and it is necessary to choose trustworthy people so as not to have any bad intentions. ”

Ah Xiu finished explaining what she was thinking in one go, she drank two sips of tea, and found that Song Ercai and Chang were staring at her with strange eyes.

"Dad, mother, but what do you think is wrong?"

"No, no."

Chang Shi hurriedly shook his head, and then smiled: "It's just a little unbelievable, it's just an eight-year-old child, and when he talks, he talks about the way, and the road ahead and back are clearly arranged, on the other hand, we adults can't catch up at all." ”

Chang didn't know what Ah Xiu had experienced before, and she was surprised that the little girl was so stakes.

Ah Xiu's heart tightened, knowing that she had just said too much.

But these things can't be delayed, if you don't develop the shop and embroidery workshop as soon as possible, when your identity is exposed, or those people find you, the plan will be over.

It has been less than two months since she came to the Song family, but she already understands what kind of people Chang and Song Er are, not to mention Song Tian, who needs to rely on in the future.

"Mother, at the beginning of this family, my mother and I were not taken seriously, and the things in the shop and embroidery workshop were not less, and I understood how the business of the family worked for a long time."

Ah Xiu hung her head and looked sad.

When Chang saw her like this, his heart fluttered.

She held Ah Xiu's hand and asked softly: "Ah Xiu, although my mother has always been reluctant to say it, but now if we pretend not to know, then we are too selfish." Something happened to your own family, what about your mother? Is it still there? ”

Chang was very reluctant to mention this, because she was afraid, afraid of losing her position in her heart, afraid that Ah Xiu would be homesick, or run away.

But the little girl came here for them everywhere, and selflessly dedicated the skills and business she had learned.

Such a good girl, she really doesn't know what to say. No matter how she came to this house, as long as she still has nostalgia and relatives, she is willing to take them over and take good care of them.
