Chapter Seventy-Four: The Color Is Dyed

Qi Yang's face was happy: "Yes, miss, I didn't expect this business to go so smoothly, originally, these three boats of silk, I thought, how can it be sold for more than half a year." Therefore, although the purchase of plain silk is still being carried out one after another, the number of purchases is not large. In this way, it is definitely necessary to increase the amount of purchases. Fortunately, I have already told the He family to send us Jiangnan silk regularly. Every time the three ships are full, they will send people to the capital in a hurry. Otherwise, there is a real shortage of supply. ”

"Of course, this business is so good, it still saves Miss's face."

"First of all, the Shen family of the national teacher bought a batch of clothes for the people, and then, the Liu family, the Yang family, the Ma family and other wealthy families who are related to the Shen family of the national teacher have purchased some from our workshop and went back to make clothes for the people. Then, the steward of the Ma family came to negotiate with us, saying that there was a cloth Zhuangzi in the marriage of the wife of their family, which was on the most prosperous West Street in the capital. I want to buy goods from us and sell them. ”

"I took it upon myself to give them the lowest wholesale price, and they simply pulled back all the cloth we had left, almost a boatload and a half of silk. It was still settled in cash, and it was not delayed until the cloth was sold out. So, I hurried to give the good news to the young lady. ”

Qin Mingyue smiled slightly and said, "Ma family? Mrs. Shiko? Well, I see, it's Star Shift. She is Mrs. Hou Shizi of Xiangyang, and she is also a young lady from the Shen family, with the wealth of the Shen family, it is natural that when she got married, she prepared ten miles of red makeup, and it is not surprising that she has a shop on West Street in her hand. How's her shop doing? Have you inquired? ”

Qi Yang hurriedly said: "I also inquired about this." Mrs. Shen's shop has always been mediocre and does not lose money, but it is estimated that there is not much money. However, it occupies a good terrain, and in terms of goods, there are no characteristics of ordinary satin that can be bought everywhere, and there are also some high-quality tribute satin, spring silk, brocade and the like. The sales volume is also average, but it is just bought by some familiar customers. ”

"In the past few years, I have watched, in fact, their housekeepers and shopkeepers are still quite shrewd, but there are no channels to enter the distinctive cloth, so the business is mediocre. As soon as our inexpensive, but very special color satin entered the market, their business immediately improved. It's only been a few days, and I think there are one or two more customers than usual, and the situation is still increasing. ”

"Their housekeeper has already booked the next batch of silk with me. The deposit was paid. ”

Qin Mingyue nodded and said, "This is good, it is beneficial to us, and it is also good for Star Shift." We both make money, which couldn't be better. By the way, shopkeeper Qi, how is the supply prepared by you over there? ”

Qi Yang hurriedly said: "I have already agreed with He Jinlan, who delivered the goods. Let him hurry up and collect more plain silk for me in Jiangnan and transport it over, we are all paid for the silver ticket on delivery, and the liquidity is very sufficient. The quality of the Jiangnan silk he provided was still better. However, it is not enough to just supply their goods, I also talked to several Guanzhong and Gyeonggi silk merchants who supply with my Qi family on weekdays, and asked them to provide us with plain silk. The weaving and dyeing workshop supplied to us in several aspects is still sufficient. ”

"Fortunately, when our silk was in the experimental stage, the young lady asked me to expand the weaving and dyeing workshop. If it weren't for such a large production volume, it would definitely not work in the small workshop before. ”

Qin Mingyue said: "The output has been increased, and the discharge of this wastewater should also be paid attention to, have the filtered pools I asked you to build have been built?" ”

Qi Yang said: "Miss, please rest assured. The workshop is in front of my house, and if it pollutes the water, our family will suffer first. This point was paid attention to when we were in the Qi family's workshop before. Now that production has been expanded, the filter pool on the brochure given to me by the young lady has been built by someone early on, and it has already begun to be used. After filtering it in that pool, it is not polluted water that comes out, but that water becomes clear and bright. I didn't let the water flow directly into the river, but used a canal to lead it to the nearby mountain forest, which should have been watering the mountain forest. It just so happens that the mountain forest next to it is also my family's property. ”

Qin Mingyue nodded and asked, "Then what kind of trees are in that mountain forest in your house?" ”

Qi Yang said: "That mountain forest is a forest that has been passed down from our family for several generations. It has been well taken care of for a long time, and it is all ordinary poplars, elms and the like. It is used to make plates. ”

Qin Mingyue was relieved when she heard that it was made of plates. As a fortune teller and a leader of Taoism, she still attaches great importance to Feng Shui and the harmonious relationship between man and nature.

Qin Mingyue then asked: "I also looked at the pieces of cloth you sent to the mansion, this dyeing is indeed good." Although the first batch of colors are some old-fashioned dark colors, there are some pearles in the fabric, and it still looks very high-grade. I have already told the people who bought it in the house, and I have also bought some cloth for our house to make clothes for the people under us. In addition to this first batch of dark fabrics, have you researched any other colors on that booklet? ”

As soon as Qi Yang heard this, he was happy and said, "Miss asked the buyer to come and buy it, I am already ready, and this time I brought it over." These colors are, as Mademoiselle said, all dark. It is only suitable for the elderly or the underclass. In addition to these, the second batch, bright colors, such as pine color, magenta, ultramarine, cobalt blue, bamboo green, crow blue, lilac, lotus color, mint, light rose, have all been studied. This time, I also brought some finished products and two of each to the house. It's good to ask the lady to take a look, and if it's okay, I'm ready to start selling it outside. ”

Qin Mingyue was interested when she heard this, and hurriedly asked the waiters around her to fetch it and take a look. Now the servants of the Qin family have increased a lot, there are about sixty or seventy people, and the rules have been trained by Mama Ma and Mama Liao, so as soon as the order was given, someone immediately sent it up.

Qin Mingyue looked at it carefully, and talked to Qi Yang about the areas where he paid attention to improvements. Although Qin Mingyue doesn't know much about printing and dyeing, in her previous life, these colors have been made, Qin Mingyue has seen them and used them, so she has more right to speak, and her proposal also gave Qi Yang a lot of inspiration.

After Qi Yang heard this, he promised Qin Mingyue that he must go back to correct it as soon as possible, and when the correction is done, he will go to the mansion and ask the young lady to take a look.

Qin Mingyue nodded, and asked Qi Yang to retreat.
