Chapter 256: Hospitality
After Lu Jian'an washed up, he ate breakfast.
The breakfast is very exquisite, probably explained by the Lu family, and it is very hearty.
Crystal shrimp dumplings, pumpkin porridge, purple rice and red bean porridge, as well as shredded chicken wontons, sour side dishes, accompanied by bean paste buns and fresh meat buns, anyway, there are many kinds and they are also very exquisite.
Lu Jian'an didn't eat much.
The problem of taste, the things in Jiangnan are still those things, but the taste is sweeter, and he can't eat it with his pure northern taste.
He drank a bowl of porridge, ate a few shrimp dumplings, and then stopped.
The rest of Luo Qing and Wei Ran also took a bite and hurriedly cleaned up for the master.
I'm afraid that I will miss the master's business.
Where is it important to eat and watch the birth of Yunjin, and the two of them can't wait to go to the silk weaving workshop immediately.
Lu Jian'an didn't wear a cyan robe to go out, and Xu went out for him! Several changes of clothes were made for him, but he didn't wear them.
I'm going to the weaving workshop today, and this outfit is not suitable.
So she only wore a burlap cloth coat, which was similar to the work clothes she asked her silk mill apprentices to wear, and she directly wore one by two hands in the front and tied the belt at the back, and the whole body was wrapped.
This was specially prepared by Luo Qing for the master.
When he went to the weaving workshop, there was definitely no place to change clothes, and he directly asked people to put on his work clothes.
At this time, Lu Minzhi in the front yard had already received a report from his subordinates, and Mr. Lu got up.
Naturally, he also packed up and asked Lu Jian'an to go out.
Lu Min led the way before! Lu Jian'an took Luo Qing and Wei Ran to follow Lu Minzhi out of the house directly from the side door.
Sure enough, this street looks secluded, and as soon as you go out, you see the bustling Jiangnan street scene.
Because I got up early, there weren't many people on the street at this hour.
The early morning fog, the green smoke curling, the few vendors on the street stop and go, the shops on both sides of the street, the upper door panels have not been removed, and the whole street feels quiet with a hint of Jiangnan tenderness.
There are a few vendors shouting, all of them in soft Jiangnan Nong.
The Lujia Weaving Workshop is just across the street, and it should be two three-entry courtyards connected together.
Overall, these two courtyards occupy half a street.
It is conceivable that the Lu family's weaving workshop should be famous in this place.
There is a huge black plaque hanging in front of the high door, on which the golden characters of the dragon and the phoenix dance "Lujia Weaving Workshop", just this pen, it can be seen that the pen is strong and sharp.
The most important thing is that at the bottom of this plaque, it carries the emperor's imperial seal.
That's right, the ancestors of the Lu family have two generations of imperial merchants, and it can be said that they were once rich in the world, and the scenery is incomparable.
This plaque was given to them by the emperor when he was there.
Lu Minzhi glanced at the plaque, and his heart was full of pride, anyone who saw the plaque would know the glory of their Lu family.
"Mr. Lu, this is a plaque given to us by the first emperor. Please, sir. ”
Lu Jian'an arched his hand and followed.
Before the two of them entered the gate, Lu Ling had already arrived with someone.
Today is an important day.
Even if it is an inch of cloud brocade, he must witness with his own eyes what kind of glory this so-called cloud brocade is.
As the master, how could he not be there, if he didn't come, it would inevitably make this Mr. Lu think that he was contemptuous of him.
"Mr. Lu, why don't you rest for a while, you only arrived in the middle of the night yesterday, and you got up so early today?"
Lu Ling said this sincerely, not just hypocrisy, after all, if in terms of generation, Lu Jian'an is also his own son and nephew, and Mr. Lu looks like he is only 14 years old, if the 14-year-old boy is in his own family, most of his sons and nephews are just teenagers with a lot of hearts.
How can there be a man like Mr. Lu who is only 14 years old and has already taken on the burden of a family.
It is inevitable that there will be some sighs in my heart.
Lu Jian'an said with a smile, "Boss Lu, you're welcome, in fact, I'm also in a hurry, Yunjin has a lot of time-consuming and labor-intensive manufacturing, and I still want to come over early and start construction earlier." Lu Gongzi and I still need to run in on the loom, I'm afraid there won't be many finished products on the first day. ”
He naturally knew in his heart that this cooperation was not something that two people could cooperate with at once.
Although he knows a lot of things himself, it doesn't mean that he can immediately get everyone to cooperate with him.
Lu Ling knew in his heart that Lu Jian'an seemed to be a very cautious person.
"Mr. Lu, I'll take you into the weaving workshop first."
Lu Jian'an waved his hand, "No! Boss Lu, take me directly to the jacquard loom, after all, Mr. Lu needs to practice on the jacquard machine first, otherwise those mantras are just on paper, the two of us will practice first, and then talk about others, as for the weaving workshop, we have time, you can look at it slowly. ”
He was also in a hurry, Yun Brocade was not, other brocades could be slowly little bit, and weaving Yun Brocade was too time-consuming and laborious.
The group went straight to the backyard.
The stewards of the weaving mill and the shopkeepers have already all come out.
Their own master came in person, how dare they slack off.
I saw my old master and young master walking in with a young man in a strange burlap robe, especially the young man, and the two girls who followed behind him were actually wearing the same strange clothes as him.
Naturally, they wouldn't ask anything too much, and immediately gave Lu Ling a salute.
"Sir!"
"Sir!"
"You're all busy, your and I will take this Mr. Lu to the backyard to busy us. In the future, Mr. Lu and several of his apprentices will come and go freely in our weaving workshop, and there is no need to restrict their whereabouts. There's nothing in this weaving workshop that they can't see or ask. ”
Lu Ling's words were to give Lu Jian'an a big face.
You must know that the weaving workshop can be regarded as a top-secret place, unless a superior official comes down to inspect, otherwise outsiders will never be able to enter here.
Even if the higher officials come down to inspect it, I am afraid that the people here will arrange for the weaving workshop to make the simplest silk weaving.
But any craft with a secret will not be put out.
When the shopkeeper and the steward heard this, their faces did not move, and they respectfully agreed.
But there were turbulent waves in their hearts, and they didn't see that the inconspicuous young man in front of them was only handsome at most, how could he get the blue eyes of the master.
This kind of treatment is only available to several young masters.
This Mr. Lu is actually treated the same as several young masters, and it seems that it should be a nephew of the Lu family who has some talent, so he was sent to the weaving workshop for further study.
And it seems that his master admires this Mr. Lu very much, and it seems that I am afraid that this Mr. Lu will definitely have the right to speak in the Lu family in the future.
A few people cautiously sent the old man and took Mr. Lu and the young master directly to the backyard.
The backyard had already been vacated as the old man had ordered, and there were three jacquard looms there.
And the things piled up in the storeroom in the backyard are all strange shapes, and people can't say some materials.
It looks like it's splendid, but they don't know how to use it.
