Su Mingxi was surprised when she saw her so excited, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, no matter how much you ask for a price to this point." Chinese It's just that I'm a little puzzled, girl, just now Lord Luo told me that the large jacquard machine is to be operated by many people, until now, even Jiangning weaving here, can really operate this machine with the weaving of the most high-end brocade, there are only a few people, they weave out the brocade, tribute to the palace are treasures, ordinary concubines are not rewarded, you ...... Can you really use this large loom? ”

Ruan Yunsi understood in her heart that it was not that the workers would not cooperate, but that although they built this loom, they could not fully exert its characteristics and formulate the most suitable pattern for it, so they could only weave so few brocades every year, which was like making the pearl dusty, and if this thing came into their hands, it would definitely be able to shine.

It's just that he can't say this to Su Mingxi, so he just said a few perfunctory words, but he heard Su Mingxi sigh again: "If I really bought this loom for you, girl, use this loom to weave high-end brocade, please remember to let the brocade cloth village pay tribute to the palace, such brocade is absolutely not allowed to circulate among the people, of course, the price will never be bad to the girl, peaceful and prosperous, who else can be richer than the court and the emperor?" You say, don't you? ”

Ruan Yunsi also understood the stakes involved, and nodded hurriedly. At this time, it was already sunset, and seeing that the sun was about to jump behind the mountain, Su Mingxi suggested: "Why don't we rent a carriage and sit back, after a day of walking, several girls are afraid that they are all tired." ”

Ruan Yunsi smiled: "Really? I'm not tired at all, I still want to see the customs and customs here, Xiu'er, Biqiu, if you are tired, follow Su Gongzi to take the carriage together. "I have been shopping in the loom shop for several days, and the children have long been tired of it, so Zhong Nan and a few little ones did not come with me today.

Biqiu and Zhong Xiu are willing to shout tired. A few people talked while looking around at the scenery and people's feelings. Suddenly, Zhong Xiu pointed to the side and said with a smile: "Sister, look, this place is really worthy of being a splendid place, and it seems that every family has to weave cloth." What the eldest brother was carrying on his back was not the simplest loom. ”

Ruan Yunsi looked back, and sure enough, she saw a man with a loom on his back, striding forward. She glanced at it a few times and said with a smile: "Yes, Su Xiu and Su Jin are very famous...... Hey? ”

Zhong Xiu and Bi Qiu only heard Ruan Yunsi's "huh". Then they saw her turn around and chase after the man, both of them were shocked, and they were about to shout, but they saw Su Mingxi stop in front of them with a folding fan, signaling the two of them not to make a sound, and then followed Ruan Yunsi to catch up.

"This big brother, I think your loom is a little strange."

Ruan Yunsi caught up with the man. Pointing to one part of the loom, he said, "This warp beam is very delicate, and it seems to be a little different from the style of your whole loom." ”

The man looked at Ruan Yunsi in amazement, and it took a long time before he said, "You...... What nonsense are you talking about? Which...... What's the difference? Isn't it just a loom? "I want to leave. But seeing that Su Mingxi didn't know when to stop in front of him, he frowned and said, "If this girl asks you something, you will honestly say that you can't treat you badly." ”

While speaking, he took out a purse and dangled it in front of the man, the man's eyes were also poisonous, and he saw the shape of the ingots in the purse at a glance, his eyes shot a greedy light, and after thinking about it, he whispered: "That's it, anyway, it's not a secret." You look like outsiders, no wonder you don't know. ”

Without waiting to finish speaking, he snatched the silver from Su Mingxi's hand and whispered: "Just under the overpass in front, there is a beggar, and his family has been making looms for generations. Who knows, because he offended a great person, the whole family was defeated, and a few craftsmen who were originally good were so depressed that they had to beg along the street for a living. No one dares to take them in this Suzhou city, you are from other places, if you can use them, take them away, the craft is absolutely no different, my warp shaft was originally broken, and I found many places that could not be repaired, so I went to him to try it, and sure enough, after buying parts according to what he said, he repaired it for me. ”

After the man finished speaking, he hurriedly left, Ruan Yunsi stood in place, her eyes flashed, and she said softly: "There can be such a character?" Strange, who did he offend? It has come to this point, otherwise, with his exquisite skills, will it be our turn to meet him? I'm afraid that Lord Luo has already snare him under his banner.

Su Mingxi said with a smile: "Since Miss Ruan said so, why don't we go and take a look?" Seeing that Ruan Yunsi was still a little hesitant, he knew what she was worried about, so he couldn't help but smile proudly: "Don't worry, girl, no matter what character he offends, I, Su Mingxi, may not be afraid." ”

Ruan Yunsi looked at his high-spirited appearance, he was really chic and charming, and couldn't help laughing: "No wonder so many people like to fight for power, this is the intoxicating part of power, if it weren't for Su Gongzi here today, I am afraid that I will admire that person's skills again, and I will not dare to act casually." ”

Su Mingxi touched his head, coughed and whispered, "Miss Ruan, is this a compliment?" Why do I always feel like there's something to praise and disparagement? ”

Ruan Yunsi was amused by him, but immediately held back, pretending to be serious and serious: "It's a compliment, it's really a compliment, don't be too careful." ”

A few people talked and laughed and came to the bottom of the overpass, and sure enough, they saw a young beggar squatting there, and the sky was already slightly dark, but he only stared at a picture on the ground. Ruan Yunsi and Su Mingxi walked up, Su Mingxi didn't know why, but Ruan Yunsi almost screamed excitedly.

The picture on the ground can't be seen by others, so how can she not see the clue? It was clearly a drawing of a rudimentary printing machine. Although Ruan Yunsi had seen the jacquard machine, the printing machine of this era was still in its embryonic state, and could only print the most crude and simple patterns, and usually could only be used on linen and kudzu cloth. It's just that there is no cotton cloth in this era, so Ruan Yunsi didn't pay much attention to printing, but now she has seen a relatively mature printing machine here, how can she not be excited?

Once the cotton cloth is produced in the future, and then there is a mature printing machine, you can produce all kinds of cotton cloth, which is the most suitable market for the people, when the time comes, the flow of brocade cloth Zhuang is bound to surpass Guiyun Silk Village to become the first in the industry, and I as the mastermind behind the scenes, the wealth is definitely not a problem.

"Miss Ruan, Miss Ruan......"

Su Mingxi's voice beside him pulled Ruan Yunsi back to reality, and he found that the young man was looking at him in confusion, although the other party was unkempt and dusty, but those eyes were as bright as stars in the sky, seeing that Ruan Yunsi finally came back to his senses, he grinned and said happily: "Girl, but how many copper coins do you want to give alms?" Hehe, that's great, I still have ten copper coins to make up fifteen copper coins, and then I can buy three or two rice, and I can let my family have a full meal tonight. ”

"I can give you money, but can you come with me? As long as you come with me, don't say ten copper coins, even if it's one or two silver a day, it's not a problem. Ruan Yunsi stared at the young man with glowing eyes, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he almost made Su Mingxi vomit blood, if it weren't for the fact that he knew Ruan Yunsi's temperament, he really thought that the woman he had loved for a long time was love at first sight for this beggar.

The young man was also obviously confused, and said to himself, "Now...... Is the world so chaotic now? Even women have come out to be traffickers? My mom ......."

Before he could say the words, he heard Su Mingxi say unhappily: "What nonsense are you talking about?" What traffickers? Even if we are human traffickers, who wants to kidnap such an unkempt beggar as you? ”

Ruan Yunsi glanced back at Su Mingxi, and said seriously: "Su Gongzi, although you have a noble status, don't discriminate against the people at the bottom, if he washes off the dust well, even if he is not as good as Su Gongzi, he should be a young man who is full of energy." ”

Su Mingxi is so depressed, I wonder if Miss Ruan's eyes are so strange? Does she like that? Until now, they have refused to accept my affection, is it because I am too neat and tidy? God, this ...... It can't be, right?

Just as he was thinking about it, he heard the young man say in confusion: "You ...... What the hell are you here for? Is it okay to leave quickly without giving money? Don't delay my business. ”

Ruan Yunsi sneered and said, "Are you embarrassed to call it business?" What I just told you is true. I know that your whole family has offended a big man in Gusu City, and there will never be another day of making looms here, but if you are willing to go back with me, I promise that not only will you be able to rebuild looms, but you will also get enough wealth to spend for several lifetimes. Come back with me. ”

These words, especially the last one, are too much like what human traffickers say when they are demagoguery. However, the young man's eyes widened for a moment, and he exclaimed, "Loom? You mean...... Can you get us to retouch those materials? Give us the opportunity to build a loom? You...... Do you know who our family has offended? That's Zhen Shangshu's nephew, do you know about the two Shangshu Zhen Shangshu? It's his cousin......"

This time it was Ruan Yunsi's turn to be surprised, she blinked, she couldn't believe that a cousin of Zhen Shangshu could force a family of craft heirlooms to such a point? But then she remembered that this is not a modern era where talent is important, in this era, craftsmen belong to the untouchables, and the cousins of Zhen Shangshu want to pinch them to death, Q
