Chapter 407: Making Clothes
Li Yu glanced at Li Yao's bright and excited eyes, and the whole person seemed to be cheered, and when he reacted, he nodded involuntarily.
"Very good, I'm optimistic about you." Li Yao patted Li Yu's shoulder with satisfaction.
After taking a look in the shop and seeing that everything was normal, Li Yao took out the thirty taels of silver that he had just earned in the past two days from the counter and left, passing by the Dong family's cloth village, Li Yao thought about it and went in again.
The shopkeeper in this shop recognized Li Yao, and when he saw Li Yao coming, he personally stepped forward to entertain him.
He also went to the banquet of the old lady of the Dong family, but he saw Li Yao give the old lady a plant of ginseng at the banquet, and he also saw the importance that the Dong family attached to Li Yao, so he didn't dare to snub Li Yao.
Li Yao walked around the cloth village and picked out a silk cloth for everyone in her shop.
Li Zhong is a dark blue one, Li Xin is a sky blue one, the two can make a couple outfit, and then Li Yi picked a peach-colored one, Li Cheng picked a dark red silk cloth, and Zhang Da picked a gray-green one, as for Li Yu, Li Yao picked a more serious one, and picked a moon-white satin and a cyan rhombic yarn for him, she felt that it was particularly worthy of Li Yu's temperament.
There were a total of seven pieces of silk, and the shopkeeper didn't dare to charge Li Yao more, all of them were calculated at the lowest price, and in the end, he received a total of twenty taels of silver from Li Yao, of course, Li Yao didn't pick up expensive ones this time, and they all picked ordinary medium satin.
But even if it is ordinary satin, the satin of this era is genuine and artificial, and in Li Yao's opinion, these satins are good.
"Shopkeeper Dong, do you know a tailor with better craftsmanship" Li Yao finished picking out the cloth and looked at the shopkeeper of the Dong family.
"We have tailors in our cloth village, and the craftsmanship is good, does Miss Li need to make clothes?" asked the shopkeeper Dong.
"Well, but I didn't do it, it was the shopkeeper and the guy in my shop who did it." Li Yao nodded, then asked the shopkeeper Dong for a pen and paper, wrote down who corresponded to which cloth in the store, and then said to the shopkeeper
"After a while, you ask the tailor to go to my shop and measure them up, and then make two winter clothes for each of them, and if you have any extra materials, you can make some autumn or summer clothes. By the way, I'll go back when it's almost close. "Now let's go, don't delay the shop to make money.
After explaining, Li Yao took out two taels of silver and asked, "Is this money enough to make clothes?"
"Oops, enough is enough." Shopkeeper Dong nodded again and again, thinking that he didn't dare to say that it was not enough.
These seven pieces of cloth can make more than 20 clothes, winter clothes he also has to add cotton, and this satin clothes also have to be made of fine thread, plus several tailors on their cloth village have been making high-end ready-to-wear clothes, a piece of clothing always takes several hours, so the labor fee is not cheap, these two taels of silver are really less
Li Yao didn't know what was going on, thinking that the last time she went to a tailor shop to make four clothes, it cost a hundred dollars, and it was made in three days, and the ready-to-wear made here was as simple as the clothes she made last time.
"By the way, if you have extra materials, make a few pairs of shoes for each of them, and two pairs of cotton boots and shoes." Li Yao added again, thinking that these two taels of silver can't be spent in vain, so it should be no problem to make a few more pairs of shoes.
"Yes, yes, yes." The shopkeeper Dong took the two taels of silver given by Li Yao, and his heart was dripping blood.
Li Yao left Dongjiabuzhuang satisfied.
When Li Zhong saw that the last cake was almost sold and there were very few pedestrians on the street, he was about to close, when he saw an old man about fifty years old enter the shop, carrying a basket in his hand, which contained things like rulers, ropes, and charcoal heads, all like tools for making clothes.
Li Zhong was about to ask him if he wanted to buy a cake, but the old man opened his mouth first.
"This is a sweet pastry shop, you are Li Zhongbu"
"Exactly, you are" Li Zhong was a little puzzled.
"Oh, I'm from Dong's cloth village, it was your young lady who asked me to help you make clothes, call out all the people in your store, and I'll measure it for you." As he spoke, the old man took a list and showed it to Li Zhong.
Li Zhong took the list with some doubts and looked at it, it was indeed the list of Dongjia Cloth Village, on which was written the information on the purchase of items, there were seven pieces of silk and satin, and the requirements for making ready-to-wear clothes, and at the bottom of the list was the signature of his own lady.
