Chapter 1682 Silk Workshop
"I heard that the women of the Great Chu Kingdom will be popular, I don't know if it's true?"
The silk used by Lan Chi came from the Great Chu State, and it cost a lot of money to buy silk cloth every year, and if it could be produced by itself, a large part of the country's expenses would be left.
"It's true."
In the Great Chu State, every woman in every household will be popular, and marrying well or not has a lot to do with the female celebrity. Regardless of whether women need to embroider with a needle and a thread in the future, it is undeniable that female red is one of the tests of women's craftsmanship.
"Ke'er too?"
Before proposing, the Khan had heard about the princess. The princess favored by the emperor of the Great Chu State is eclectic, and running all over the street is a long thing. The emperor of the Great Chu State was not restrained and allowed him to roam outside the palace. Of course, if it weren't for her temperament, Lan Singh wouldn't have chosen her. Imagine marrying Lei Xiao a delicate lady, who can't ride a horse or shoot arrows, what's the use?
Xia Ye'er's temperament is a bit like the girls in Mo Nan, and most of the girls in Mo Nan are not popular, so Lan Singer has this question.
"Khan doesn't have to worry, Kerr's female popularity is also good."
When she doesn't know how to be a female celebrity, in fact, she has studied with a female celebrity master in the folk for a long time, and she is not bad at all compared to the embroidery workers in the palace. It's just that she hasn't been publicized.
"Ke'er, I've drunk all the tea, isn't it time to change my name?"
Xia Ye'er unconsciously shouted the word 'Khan' caused Lan Singer's dissatisfaction, and he didn't change his words after passing the door, which was really uncomfortable to listen to.
"Father, Father Khan."
Xia Ye'er was depressed, how could her father be the same as her son, forcing people to change their minds.
"Ke'er, since you are a female celebrity, my father will give you a heavy matter."
"Father Khan said it was okay, but Ke'er did his best."
Although Khan didn't speak, Xia Ye'er could probably guess what Khan was going to say. The silk of Lan Chi Kingdom is from the Great Chu State, and the craftsmanship of a few people who can weave silk is not very good, and the things that are woven cannot be eye-catching, and it doesn't matter if they wear it by their own family, they are still far from the level worn by princes and nobles.
Silk silk is a symbol of status, every year the princes and nobles, rich merchants have to sell a lot of silk silk from the Great Chu State, the cost of this is not a few. If the state can be co-opted, it will add a lot of revenue to the national treasury.
"My father wants to set up a silk workshop in Linglan City, specializing in teaching women to learn female red."
"Ke'er will not be dishonored." She was born a princess, she has done everything, but she has never been a teacher. In the past, people used to be masters for themselves, but this time I also tried to try, and I didn't have anything to do, and she would be bored if she was stuck in the house.
"Father Khan has chosen the location of the workshop in mind?"
"Isn't there a clearing on that street on the south side of your palace?"
"Well, it's a nice place to be."
King Nuo is located in a relatively prosperous market, the south side of the palace is a new market, within a few years, it is a prosperous commercial market, and the location is also beneficial to the long-term. Although the silk workshop is a workshop, the finished products can also be sold in the market, so the workshop does not need long-term money support from the national treasury, and it will not be long before it can make a profit.
It seems that Father Khan did not think about this for a day or two, but after repeated thinking.
Xia Ye'er didn't care where the location was, it was just convenient to get out and go in if it was closer to the palace. She doesn't know much about South Street, but since it is the place chosen by Khan, it must not be too bad, and if there is something wrong, she will mention it later.
"So leave this matter to Kerr, the sooner the better."
"Father Khan doesn't have to be anxious, silk weaving is silk, the weather in Lanchi is cold, is there a ......"
"There are large tracts of undeveloped land in the western part of the country, with lush mulberry forests and little inhabitation."
Haile Khan was the first to answer, so that King Lanchi, who was originally frowning, calmed down. He had forgotten about it, and when it came to mulberry forest, Lan Chi was the only place there.
"Among the people who got married, there were a few people who knew how to raise silkworms, and my father Khan could send someone to take them there, raising silkworms is not a matter of a day or two, so the matter of silk weaving has to wait, but I can teach women embroidery first, and embroidery is also indispensable in the Great Chu Kingdom, I don't know the ...... of Lanchi Country."
Xia Ye'er noticed that the subordinates in the house, including Haier Khan's robes, did not have many embroideries, and there were only a few sets of finished products bought from the Great Chu State with complicated embroidery on them, and I don't know if they dislike it or ............
"That's very good, this matter is handed over to Lei Xiao, and the two of you can discuss anything."
"Yes."
The Khan didn't say much about this, and according to the usual practice, as long as it was handed over to Haile Khan, the Khan basically wouldn't interfere too much. After leaving the two of them to talk a little homely, Khan got tired and buried the two of them back.
It was past noon when she came out of the khan, and Xia Ye'er, who had an empty stomach, thought that she hadn't seen the second princess yet, so she couldn't help but pout.
"What? Don't want to take on this chore? ”
Haile Khan took Xia Ye'er's hand, still with a tough posture. Xia Ye'er struggled many times to no avail, and also acquiesced to his movements. is already married to him, and it would be too hypocritical not to even let him hold his hand.
"It's nothing, it's just that I still want to see the second princess."
"Do you need to be accompanied by your husband?"
Haile Khan asked with a smile, a pair of ice-blue eyes that had the power to penetrate everything. Xia Ye'er didn't want to hide it in front of him, and there was no need to hide it, "I'll do it by myself, go back and let Nazagul prepare food for me." ”
"Yes, for the sake of my husband."
Haile Khan sneered and hurried away before Xia Ye'er got angry. Even if Xia Ye'er asked him to go to see the second princess together, he didn't have time to accompany him. The silk workshop is something that cannot be delayed, earlier he had thought about waiting for his father Khan to make a decision, but today he did not wait for him to say that his father Khan personally mentioned it, which shows that his father Khan is more urgent than himself. Half a month has passed, and the craftsmen and weaver girls brought by the Great Chu State have also been reused.
When he went back, he had to select a few good men to escort the Sansi girl, and he was uncertain about who to send to supervise the matter.
Xia Ye'er just came out of the study and didn't walk a few steps when she saw a maid looking around, and when she saw her beauty, she greeted her happily.
"The princess, the second princess has been waiting for a long time. I'm afraid that you don't know the place, so I specially asked the slave to come and greet you. ”
The little girl speaks crisply, and she looks like a water spirit, much better than Zhuomu. However, the people in this palace are all knowledgeable and do not know their hearts, and they only say three points of everything.
"Lead the way!"
The little girl saw that Xia Ye'er's face was kind and bold, and she talked more along the way, asking mostly about Xia Ye'er's life in the Great Chu Kingdom.
Xia Ye'er said something inconsequential, expressing her reluctance to say more, and the little girl didn't dare to ask again.
