In the embroidery room of Yanji Embroidery Village, more than a dozen embroidery girls were talking and laughing happily while doing embroidery work.

Today, the embroidery workshop received a large order, and someone came to order more than 1,000 embroidery jobs

This is nothing, the most important thing is that the man made it clear that he should strictly remember the objects embroidered by the embroidery village himself, and not the expensive goods transferred from the Yanwang Mansion.

After a period of practice, these embroiderers have made great progress in embroidery, but they still still do not meet Yan Qingge's standards, so they have been doing repeated exercises during this time, wasting a lot of materials.

In Yan Qingge's opinion, these materials are nothing at all, but they are enough to make these embroidery girls panic and panic again, they feel that they have wasted so many things, and they are not qualified, and they are very uncomfortable in their hearts, for fear that Yan Qingge will get angry one day and drive them all out.

Now that they have the opportunity to make money for the embroidery village, they suddenly feel that they are not useless.

"If you want me to say, when we were poor before, not to mention these handkerchief purses embroidered with flowers and flowers, it would be nice to have a piece of cloth. I think our current female celebrity is enough to sell out. An embroidery lady looked at the peony under her needle and said.

Another embroidery lady responded: "That's the reason, anyway, this batch of goods we came out of will not go from the front counter, and it will not fall into the name of Yan Ji Embroidery Village, and you can make a lot of money." ”

"I heard that the one who came to order is a barbarian, what do the barbarians know, a group of coarse old bags with only gold and silver, let's fool around, they think this embroidery is exquisitely tight."

Suddenly, a group of women laughed happily together.

The curtain at the door was lifted, and Danhe walked in.

Seeing the Danhe girl beside Yan Qingge, the women in the house immediately reined in. Danhe's face was very cold, and she was not a kind person at first glance, and these women were still a little afraid of her.

"Danhe girl is here, please sit down" Several embroidery girls hurriedly moved a stool for Danhe, and respectfully asked her to sit down.

"No, Niangniang will be there soon. The list of more than 1,000 embroidery jobs, which of you will come to ask later, have you said it. Danhe said.

Her tone made a group of embroidery girls fall into an ice cave, isn't it a good thing to take over this embroidery job, why listen to Danhe's meaning, Yan Qingge is going to be held accountable.

"Miss Danhe, what the hell is going on, please tell us about Miss Danhe." The embroidery girls panicked and asked Danhe one after another.

Danhe was a cold-hearted and hot-hearted person, and couldn't bear to see them being punished, and said: "Niangniang pays the most attention to the rules, and does things within the rules, even if it hinders her eyes, she doesn't care much. You are embroiderers, just do your duty honestly, go past the shopkeeper, the seller and the master's house, and take such a large order, you say it yourself, the rules are not in order"

In this way, these embroidery girls are half cold. They only thought about it for the sake of Yan Xiuzhuang, and they really forgot their identity.

"But we've all taken the deposit." An embroidery girl said tremblingly.

"Oh, you're really good at business, and you've learned how to collect deposits." Yan Qingge, under the service of the two maids, walked in.

Her eyes crossed the quail-like embroiderers, and her head was full of headaches.

Most of these women have no talent in embroidery, but they have a lot of talent for causing trouble, which really gives her a headache.

This matter was taken by a woman named Gu Niangzi. It is said that Gu Niangzi's ancestor is a descendant of the Gu family of the Great Zhou Shi clan, she can write and paint, and among these women, she is very capable.

Many of these women admired Gu Niangzi very much, and they all discussed with her about anything.

When a barbarian inquired around and wanted to order some ordinary embroidery from the Yanji embroidery workshop, Gu Niangzi was elected to negotiate with the barbarian.

Under Gu Niangzi's bargaining, more than 1,000 pieces of embroidery were negotiated, and the price was negotiated to 1,000 taels of silver.

Although there are people who want exquisite purses and handkerchiefs when they are sold for ten taels of silver, but with their craftsmanship, dozens of copper plates are enough.

Just now, they also laughed at the barbarians, who were rich and easy to deceive, and just collected three hundred taels in one go.

Although the barbarian also said that the delivery needs to be made on time, if it cannot be delivered or something goes wrong, ten times the compensation.

No one can do two or three embroidery jobs a day for these embroiderers, and so many people, let alone a thousand pieces a month, step up and make two thousand pieces, so they are full of confidence in this matter.

But Yan Qingge doesn't see it that way.

The money of those barbarians is not blown by the wind, many barbarians are even more stingy than the Great Zhou people in spending, especially some nobles, they are not used to spending money to buy things, in the grassland, they like something, just go and grab it.

The most important thing is that there are barbarians who are willing to spend so much money to order some clumsy embroidery in Yan Ji Embroidery Village, and if they are bribing Yan Xiuyu in disguise, but so far, Yan Qingge and Yan Xiuyu have not heard of any barbarians claiming this matter.

Eighty percent, this thing is a set, just waiting for Yan Ji Xiuzhuang to drill inside.

Yan Qingge frowned slightly, thinking about who he had offended in this embroidery village.

The goods on the shelves of her embroidery village are all expensive models, in the capital, there are not many people who do the same business, she has been dotted from house to house beforehand, it is impossible to start with peers.

So, who is calculating her?

"Don't do any more of these embroideries." Yan Qingge said.

The person who came to order the goods, I am afraid that what he was trying was not compensation, because even if the compensation was increased tenfold, it was only three thousand taels of silver, which was only a drop in the bucket for the Yanwang Mansion. I'm afraid this matter will have to be carefully investigated to figure it out.

These embroidery girls are like frozen quails, and finally know that they are in trouble.

After Yan Qingge finished instructing them, he walked out of the house and called a few capable subordinates of the Yanwang Mansion to investigate the matter properly.

On the afternoon of the second day, there was news, but it was not those people who came to report, but the group of embroiderers.

"Niangniang, the barbarian who ordered the last time is here again, and he said that their master likes the samples we sent, and wants to add two thousand embroideries, which will be delivered together with the last time, and the additional embroideries will be given half a tael of silver for each additional embroidery. The deposit was also sent, a total of nine hundred taels of silver, and we did not dare to accept it. ”

When Yan Qingge heard this, he asked, "Do you want to bring him to see me when the others are gone?" ”

In a few moments, the barbarian was brought up.

The barbarian was a man in his forties, with rough skin and wrinkles on his face, like the bark of an old tree.

He greeted Yan Qingge with a barbarian accent, and said respectfully: "Meet Princess Ning." ”

Yan Qingge didn't expect this person to dare to come to the door again, and he was so down-to-earth and generous, and he suddenly felt very surprised, are the current liars so bold.

"Who are you, you know that our embroiderers are not good at handwork, and you still have to order." Yan Qingge immediately asked.

The barbarian replied: "Niangniang, in our grassland, such embroidery work is hard to find. How can you say that these embroidery jobs are not well done. ”

"You have to transport these embroidery jobs to the grassland," Yan Qingge was taken aback.

Now the grassland is still fighting, not all the northern barbarians have surrendered to the Great Zhou, there are still a number of diehards, stubbornly resisting.

"Yes, there are many tribes on our grassland who have surrendered to the Great Zhou, but they have not caught up with the opportunity to move to the land of the Great Zhou for the first time. Everyone is very fond of the Great Zhouhua, but the war is endless, and it is difficult to transport the exquisite Great Zhou products. For example, after the purses and handkerchiefs we ordered were shipped back, each copy could earn tens to hundreds of times the profit. The most important thing in the north is gold and silver. The brute said.

Yan Qingge was a smart man, and he immediately understood why this barbarian didn't buy the exquisite embroidery on the shelves in the store.

In the eyes of many people who have not been exposed to the Great Zhouhua, these relatively poor embroideries are good enough, compared with expensive goods, they are more likely to accept this ordinary goods, and for reselling dealers, they make more money.

The barbarian continued to talk eloquently: "What's more, these embroidery jobs are purchased from the embroidery village opened by King Qiu, and more people will definitely buy them. Out of respect for the king of Qiu Wei, and the need for long-term cooperation in the future, I raised the price higher than the market, what do you think?"

What this person said was reasonable and well-founded, so that Yan Qingge could not refute it.

She couldn't help muttering, could it really be that she was too careful.

The barbarian struck while the iron was hot and persuaded Yan Qingge to take over the new list: "Our master only has the opportunity to come to Da Zhou twice a year to buy goods, and he will leave in a month, please take over this new list of 2,000 embroideries, if you are not satisfied with the price, we can add half a tael of silver to each piece." ”

"Let me think about it." Yan Qingge said. Although what this barbarian said was fantastic, Yan Qingge was still a little suspicious, and he had to investigate the identity of this man before he could make a decision.

If it's really a good business, don't do it for nothing. But if it's a trap, she won't jump into it.

The barbarian asked, "I beg Niang Niang to reply as soon as possible." ”

"I see, you go down."

Swinging the barbarian away, Yan Qingge asked someone to follow him, to see where he settled and who he came into contact with.

The next day, the results of the investigation were available. This barbarian lived in an inn in the capital, he did have a master, his master, a northern barbarian who could not speak any Da Zhou dialect, chartered the inn and lived for nearly ten days, and then inquired about the guards at the gate of the city, and the news they got was that they entered the city ten days ago.

In the past ten days, they took gold and silver and made a lot of purchases in the capital, and they bought some things that the Great Zhou people did not look very at. But in the eyes of Yan Qingge, who had been reborn once, these things were indeed very attractive to the barbarians.

This barbarian must really want to buy embroidery. Yan Qingge breathed a sigh of relief and rubbed the corners of her forehead, it seemed that she was suspicious this time.

Yan Qingge instructed his subordinates to invite the barbarian to come in the afternoon, and prepared to agree to his request for a new 2,000 embroideries in person, and give face to the barbarian, so that there would be similar business in the future, and ask him to come to him.

Near noon, Xue Yan cautiously reported to Yan Qingge: "Niangniang, that Lang surnamed Ouyang is here again, I have to see you, saying that there is something important to tell you." ”
