Chapter 128: The Value of Silk
"What are you talking about?" Meng Han roared, stood up, and almost rushed to the person who reported the news in an arrow step, and even startled the person who came to report the news in a hurry.
"My lord, a piece of silk you spoke of has already been made. The person who came didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly repeated what he had just said again, looking at his lord with anxiety in his heart, not knowing what Meng Han meant.
"Hahahaha!" Meng Han burst out laughing, laughing a little unscrupulously. After laughing wildly for a while, he turned around and shouted, "Grace, come with me to have a look, so that you can see what silk is!"
Seeing that Grace seemed to have suddenly fallen into dementia, Meng Han couldn't help but stretch out his hand, grabbed Grace's little hand, and ran towards the textile workshop. Demi and Diana didn't need Meng Han's instructions at all, so they consciously followed behind.
Pulled by the lord's hand, Grace almost couldn't help but break free, but finally let Meng Han take her slender hand and ran all the way there.
"Diana, go call Alice. While Meng Han was running, he didn't forget to ask Diana to inform Alice.
"Where, where, let me see, let me see!" As soon as he rushed into the workshop, Meng Han shouted at the old people, his excitement overflowing.
"My lord!" An old man in front of him, seeing Meng Han rushing in so excitedly, smiled with a smile on his face, and handed a piece of white silk to Meng Han's hands with both hands. The old men behind him, just like him, trembled with excitement all over their bodies. To be able to make such exquisite silk with their own hands, even if they were to die immediately, they would have no regrets.
Now these old men looked at Meng Han's gaze, not with the awe of looking at the lord, but as if looking at a god living beside them. If it weren't for the gods, how could they have such an ability, and they would have never seen what the silk of a jungle spider looked like, and they would be able to assert that the things woven from those silk threads were so...... Incredible!
As soon as this piece of silk was in his hands, Meng Han felt the smooth touch that was familiar in his previous life. This kind of touch, I don't know how many words have not been touched, and it has almost become a fragment of Meng Han's memory. Now, these fragments have been completely restored to Meng Han's mind.
The old people's weaving skills are very good, and the silk woven is smooth and delicate, even smoother and warmer than Alice's skin. You can imagine how comfortable and extravagant these silk clothes are to wear.
"Grace, pinch me and let me see if it's a dream. Standing there with the piece of silk in his hand, which was not very large, Meng Han said to Grace. This sentence immediately made Grace no longer feel uncomfortable before, and while holding back a smile, she stretched out her hand and twisted Meng Han's waist fiercely.
"Ahh
Seeing Alice and Diana running over from a distance together, Meng Han was even more excited, waved his hand over there, and directly asked them to come to his side, without waiting for Alice to stand firm, he grabbed Alice's shoulders and asked urgently and excitedly: "Alice, do you want to live the life of a dragon?"
"The life of a dragon?" Alice was taken aback directly, not understanding what Meng Han meant, but the word dragon was too scary, although it was far away, but people couldn't help but avoid it.
"What's the matter, don't you like to sleep on the gold coin?" Meng Han, who was excited, thought about the meaning of Alice's answer, but in fact it was meaningless, and immediately turned around: "It seems that you like to live the life of Gillian, no problem, I will build you a golden palace and let you live in it!"
"What's wrong with my lord?" Alice looked puzzled, looked at Meng Han with some concern, turned to Grace and asked.
"I don't know. Grace replied honestly, also looking at Meng Han, she couldn't help but be a little worried: "My lord, after he came over and got the piece of silk he said, he became like this, and he has already started talking nonsense." ”
"Nonsense?" Meng Han's words took over at this time: "If you knew what this piece of silk meant, you wouldn't think so. Even if Meng Han was excited, he heard the conversation between the two women clearly, and immediately corrected it when he heard the words, and then handed over the piece of silk.
Grace took it in disbelief, and as soon as her hand touched the piece of silk, a look of surprise appeared on her face, and by the time she took it in her hand and rubbed it carefully, the look of surprise had become more and more intense. In the end, he could no longer suppress his shock, and stood in place as if he was stunned.
Alice next to her didn't even touch the piece of silk before she felt the tremor in Grace's heart, so close to each other, it was as if it had happened to her. But even so, even if it happened in front of her eyes, Alice still couldn't believe how much magic such a small piece of silk could have to make Grace stay where she was.
Pulling the piece of silk from Grace's hand, Alice found the wonderful feeling. Alice, who has always been in charge of the external market, especially when she has been to the national capital and seen the world, of course she knows what such a touch means. Surprised, Alice didn't even care about anything else, took the piece of silk in her hand, held it in front of her eyes, and observed it carefully.
"Think about it, if such silk appeared in front of the princes and nobles, what kind of sensation would it cause?" Meng Han's voice lost no time in coming: "How crazy will those noble ladies and celebrities be, can you imagine?"
"I can, sir!" Alice finally became excited, and in ecstasy, she passed the silk to Demi, who was looking at her, and then said to Meng Han and Grace, "We're rich, aren't we? ”
"En!" Grace nodded heavily, this time, after the quarry had been transferred to someone else, she suddenly saw the hope of a large number of gold coins, and suddenly saw the biggest surprise in the future of Huangsha Town, so that Grace, the housekeeper, was excited only to leave the monobyte and the monotonous action of nodding repeatedly.
"Fortune?" Meng Han's voice suddenly became strange, making the two girls involuntarily look at Meng Han, it seemed strange, could it be that Meng Han still had different opinions, or was there any crisis they hadn't thought of?
"Isn't it?, my lord!" Grace finally regained her ability to speak and move normally under Meng Han's abnormal blow, and asked eagerly.
"Of course!" Meng Han immediately followed his judgment after a big affirmation: "It's not just as simple as getting rich!
"Plop" Meng Han's exaggerated statement finally made everyone present laugh, and the laughter became higher and higher, reaching the sky.
When everyone returned to normal, Grace asked a little worriedly, "My lord, do you want to keep the production of this silk secret?"
"No!" Meng Han replied in a big voice, "from tomorrow, no, from now on, Grace, you will immediately build a huge silk weaving factory outside the castle, recruit a large number of people who can weave cloth from among the inhabitants, and we will immediately start mass production." ”
"But?" Grace was a little worried, this was not at all like Meng Han's style, if it wasn't kept secret, what would others do if they learned it?
"There's no way they learn, they don't have spider silk. Meng Han said with a smile, this is something that has been planned for a long time, how can it leave a flaw for others.
"But what if the elves see us making money?" Grace thought comprehensively, and these also came to mind.
"If the elves want gold coins, there is a way, and they don't have to compete with us for food at all. Meng Han couldn't help but smile.
Thinking that a few swords made by the elves had been sold for hundreds of gold coins, Grace also felt a little worried. After thinking about it from front to back, he immediately found that in the transaction that Meng Han and the elf clan had made, it seemed that Meng Han had taken these problems into account. This is different from the quarry, anyone who wants to touch the silk has to go through Meng Han, otherwise they can't get the silk thread, or they can't get it easily, so they can only risk killing the jungle spider or similar magical beasts, and the cost will be scared to death.
"Alice, I don't care what method you use, find a group of mercenaries or those treasure hunters who are willing to carry the goods through the desert as soon as possible, let them buy silk first and then go outside by themselves, or be willing to escort our caravan out to sell it, in short, there must be such a group of people when I need it. Meng Han quickly assigned Alice the task, and his whole body was filled with a sense of confidence.
With silk, with the exclusive right to trade silk threads with elves, you have the real capital to settle down, and you are no longer afraid of being robbed of your own property, no longer afraid that someone will laugh at you for not becoming a magician, and no longer afraid of the blockade of Stormwind City, when silk really appears around those nobles, all of this will become insignificant dust.
At this time, Meng Han finally had the confidence of a nobleman. In the near future, among the forces of the principality, there will be a Huangsha Town that people cannot ignore! No matter which force it is, they will command Huangsha Town in every possible way. Or, instead of Huangsha Town, it should be called Golden City!
"My lord, how much do we sell for such silk?" Alice suddenly remembered and asked.
"We have to think about those buyers, and we can't let them calculate too much. Meng Han raised his head, looked at his woman, and replied with a smile: "The same weight of gold coins, for the same weight of silk!"
