Chapter 136: Return to Beijing
This Luo Youheng is really not bragging.
It seems that he has indeed done a good job in the capital, appropriately delegating power, selecting available talents, and completely becoming the shopkeeper himself.
Qiao Wanshi feels that Luo Youheng is more like a real shopkeeper than her, although she doesn't have to care about the shops that have been opened, but the development strategy has to be determined by her, and she has to be responsible for the future of the shop and business!
For example, this time, Qiao Wanshi has to get a few new products to make a new one for the rouge shop, and only by constantly updating the shop can the shop be maintained forever.
There is also a restaurant, which must also come up with new dishes.
If it weren't for the boredom on the road, Qiao Wanshi had made some planning, and she would definitely feel anxious now.
Fortunately, there are two designers on the Buzhuang side, Wenshuang and Chunhua, and Qiao Wanshi doesn't have to do the design of the clothing herself.
Qiao Wanshi still took the time to go to Buzhuang for a turn, and found that everything in Buzhuang was in good order and the development was extremely smooth.
She also looked at the account book, and the profit was very good.
During the period when Qiao Wanshi left Beijing, the cloth village drove the cloth trading business through the sale of ready-to-wear garments, and the net profit of the entire cloth village reached more than 50,000 taels of silver.
The profit of the cloth village is definitely not comparable with the rouge workshop, but among the peers, the business of Qiaojia cloth village is already extremely prosperous.
After all, the ready-to-wear designed by their designers is so beautiful that many rich ladies are willing to buy cloth in Qiaojia Cloth Village and let them make clothes.
In addition to making money from selling cloth, the cloth village also made a lot of money from garment processing.
There are more and more people who make clothes to order, and there are more and more workers who need to be able to make clothes, and there are also embroidery.
Qiao Wanshi mentioned it to Wen Shuang, and asked her to see that if she recruited more people, she was afraid that the garment business of Buzhuang would increase again in the future.
It is much more convenient to buy cloth from them and then make it with energy bodies than to buy cloth and make it yourself, and the ladies and ladies of rich families are willing to choose this way.
Qiao Wanshi thought that it would be better to get a few sewing machines and sew clothes by hand, it was still too slow.
If you can get a few sewing machines for the store, when you need to sew, you can sew quickly with a single step on the machine.
Thinking like this, after getting into the carriage, Qiao Wanshi bought the drawings of the sewing machine with the system.
Don't think about electric sewing machines, she bought the most primitive kind of old-fashioned sewing machines that are driven by pedals with their feet.
It's such a thing that has been eliminated, and the system actually asked her for 3,000 points!
Qiao Wanshi: System, can you pit a little more?
System: Host, the system is not pitted at all, the old-fashioned sewing machine is exactly what the host needs, and the item can be valuable because it is needed.
Qiao Wanshi: Is that for me, an electric sewing machine that is useless is as cheap as garbage?
System:...... Not really, after all, electric sewing machines are more advanced than older sewing machines, so the points required are definitely higher.
Qiao Wanshi asked, the drawings of the electric sewing machine cost 5,000 points, in fact, if she bought the drawings of the electric sewing machine, it would be the best choice, after all, it was only 2,000 points more expensive.
Besides, she always has the power to drive the world, and when the time comes, she will definitely need drawings of various electrical appliances, and it seems that it costs more points to get it in one step, but in fact, this is the most economical.
But......
In the end, Qiao Wanshi chose the drawings of the old-fashioned sewing machine.
After getting the drawings, Qiao Wanshi asked Sikong Fan to find those blacksmiths and asked them to process all the parts according to the drawings in twenty copies.
These masters are used to taking Qiao Wanshi's work, and now when they look at her drawings, they don't need to be explained by others at all.
They not only know that the quantity word marked on the drawing means how many parts to be produced, but also know how to look at the various data on the drawing and produce parts according to the data.
What is particularly humane about the system is that the various data of the parts marked on the drawings are not international standard units such as centimeters and millimeters, but the units of length expressed in their time.
Sewing machine, Qiao Wanshi made twenty units at once, not necessarily so much right away, but be prepared, isn't it?
Besides, Qiao Wanshi is also ready to take Luo Youheng back to Yunjin City and do business in Yunjin City.
After explaining to Uncle Yong about ordering sewing machine parts, Sikong Fan left, and Qiao Wanshi's carriage also arrived outside the palace gate.
On this trip back to Beijing, in addition to dealing with business matters, the most important thing for Qiao Wanshi is to face the saint!
Qiao Wanshi's identity is the county lord, but with her identity, she can't enter and leave the palace gate freely.
If there are relatives who are concubines in the harem, they need to be notified by the concubines, and the guards at the palace gate can let them go.
If it is a saint, then it is even more necessary for the saint to send someone to spread the word before he can enter.
Qiao Wanshi took out her waist card, and then explained that she wanted to enter the palace to face the saint.
The guards glanced at her, a county lord, who wanted to face the saint? It was easier to enter the palace to meet the concubine.
"Wait." The guards spoke, and took Qiao Wanshi's waist card to enter, this kind of request to face the saint, the guards will send their waist cards or things representing their identity to the inner palace, and the great eunuch Liu Changan will look at the arrangement.
Whether you can see the face of the saint depends on Liu Changan.
However, the guards felt that this Yifeng County Lord might not be able to see the saint, because she had no one in the harem.
If it had been done before, the great eunuch Liu Changan should have already passed the word, not now that she took the waist card and asked to enter the palace.
Without any dots, it is unknown whether her waist card can reach Liu Changan.
When Qiao Wanshi was waiting outside the palace gate, another small sedan chair passed by, and the wind just blew the curtain of her carriage, and the people in the sedan chair also happened to open the sedan curtain and take a look out.
At this glance, the eyes of the people in the sedan chair lit up, and they hurriedly shouted, "Stop the sedan chair, stop the sedan quickly!" ”
Hearing this voice, Qiao Wanshi's eyes in the carriage also flashed, and she immediately lifted the curtain, and sure enough, she saw Wang Yiyan, who was anxiously getting off the sedan chair in the sedan chair parked next to her.
Because he was too anxious, Wang Yiyan stumbled on the sedan stick all of a sudden, and almost didn't fall and eat.
It was Huang Xu who went out of the palace with Wang Yiyan, because Wang Yiyan's voice urging people to stop the sedan chair was too urgent, Huang Xu also got off the sedan chair and wanted to ask him what was going on, so he helped Wang Yiyan just right, so that Wang Yiyan would not fall.
Wang Yiyan glanced at Huang Xu and smiled, "Thank you, Brother Huang." ”
Huang Xu nodded and asked him, "Why are you in such a hurry?" ”
Wang Yiyan pointed to the carriage next to him, "It's the county lord of Yifeng." ”
Huang Xu looked over and nodded to greet Qiao Wanshi.
Wang Yiyan had already run over like a happy dog, standing outside Qiao Wanshi's carriage, his eyes shining like stars.
