Chapter 143: Selling Sewing Machines
In addition to being responsible for his own business, Qingzhu is more curious about this matter.
Besides, Qiao Wanshi, Sikong Fan, and Luo Youheng all came to the capital, and the rest of Qingzhu stayed in Lin County, which was really boring.
Recently, the weather has turned cold, Qingzhu simply let the students go on vacation, and he came to the capital.
Qiao Wanshi heard what Qingzhu meant, she was slightly surprised that Qingzhu came so quickly, it seems that the people in the Qingjia cloth village in the capital should not be underestimated.
Without waiting for Qiao Wanshi to reply, Qingzhu spoke again, "I wonder if I can go to your cloth village to have a look?" ”
If Qingzhu wants to go, just go over by himself.
It was also easy for him to get the clothes produced by Qiao Wanshi Buzhuang.
It's rare that Qingzhu still came to report to Qiao Wanshi.
Qiao Wanshi got up, "Since you want to go and see, then I'll accompany you to take a look, there's nothing to hide, and you and I are not enemies." ”
Qingzhu also stood up, and he arched his hand to Qiao Wanshi.
For Qiao Wanshi's atmosphere, Qingzhu admires it very much.
The two were about to go out when the curtain of the door was opened, and Sikong Fan came in with a cold air.
He was afraid that the cold air on his body would cool Qiao Wanshi, so he went around a little before going to the fire, but saw Qiao Wanshi getting dressed.
"Qingzhu said that he wanted to go to our splendid cloth village to have a look, and I would take him there." Qiao Wanshi took the initiative to speak.
Sikong Fan immediately stood up, "I'll accompany you, it's extremely cold outside today, you wear thicker." ”
He checked Qiao Wanshi's soup woman again and made sure that her soup woman was hot.
Qiao Wanshi was dressed neatly, Qingzhu shook her head slightly, she had never seen someone so afraid of cold.
But before he went out, Sikong Fan said again, "The heater you want has been laid, and it has just been unloaded in the backyard. ”
As soon as she heard that the heater was ready, Qiao Wanshi's eyes lit up.
Install the heater and the charcoal fire will no longer need to be burned in the house.
"Tell someone to open the doors and windows first, and let the smell go." Qiao Wanshi said.
Qingzhu, "......"
Does it smell in the house?
Silver bone charcoal has no smoke, basically no taste, when burning charcoal, usually light some incense, which will smell any peculiar smell.
If he remembers correctly, isn't Qiao Wanshi a girl from the countryside?
I can't smell this smell so much qing zhu didn t sit and felt that she had been pampered too much since she was a child, he thought, qiao wanshi probably hasn't lit a fire in the house since she was a child, so she is not used to it.
The three of them took two carriages and came to the splendid cloth village together, and after getting off the car, Qiao Wanshi took Qingzhu directly to the backyard workshop.
The inside of the workshop is also very warm, and the embroidery girls are hurrying to make the patterns on the clothes, and the innermost one is the sewing machine room.
When Qingzhu saw the twenty sewing machines lined up neatly, the whole cong was stunned.
The women stepped on the sewing machine, and the fabric flew over it, and the place where it had been sewn together was already sewn together.
Taking advantage of the gap when a female worker stopped, Qingzhu turned her head and bent over, carefully looking at the place where the sewing needle was installed.
When the female worker aligned the parts that needed to be stitched and stepped on the sewing machine to quickly stitch them together, Qingzhu's eyes were simply glued to the sewing needle.
When the sewing needle moves, it flies up and down, and it is impossible to see clearly.
Although Qingzhu didn't know about sewing machines, he understood that a needle was a stitch, and manual stitching was almost like this, one stitch at a time.
But can hand stitching be the same as the speed of a sewing machine needle jumping up and down?
No wonder they took on so many jobs, but there was still no backlog, but the delivery was faster.
Especially in the mass production of people's clothes, there is no embroidery style, you only need to cut the fabric, and then stitch.
Two days ago, Jinxiufang received an order from a large family in the east of the city and a maidservant to make winter clothes, dozens of clothes, and after remembering the size, he said that he could come to pick up the clothes the next day, and the lady of the big family did not believe that Jinxiufang could do it so quickly.
But the next day, I sent someone over, and I was stunned to pull back this batch of winter clothes.
This matter quickly spread in the capital, and now who doesn't know the speed at which Jinxiu Cloth Village makes clothes?
After seeing this batch of sewing machines in Jinxiufang today, Qingzhu finally understood the reason.
"Xiao Wanshi, you ...... Can you tell me where you bought all these things? Qingzhu asked.
He immediately added, "Don't worry, as long as you tell me where you bought your things, I will never rob your business in the capital, and I will never divulge secrets." Alternatively, I can withdraw the cloth village in the capital. ”
The largest cloth village in the capital is the cloth village of the Qing family.
Qiao Wanshi opened a splendid cloth village and got a piece of the pie, but the power of the Qing family was there, and many big families had very close contacts with each other.
If the Qing family moves their cloth village out of the capital, Jinxiufang can eat most of the business in the capital.
Qiao Wanshi's eyes rolled, "This sewing machine, I can't tell you where I bought it, but I can buy it for you, and you don't have to be afraid that I will make the difference between you and you from the middle, so I will ask what you just said to withdraw the Qing family's cloth village from the capital." But you can't really withdraw, the shell still has to be left to me, and even the customer has to be left to me. ”
"Even if it is still said to the outside world that it is my Qing's cloth village, I have no opinion on this to retain customers." Qingzhu said.
He was really attracted and blown away by the sewing machine.
And Qingzhu also believes in Qiao Wanshi, even if she is asked to run a cloth village under the banner of the Qing family, Qiao Wanshi will not destroy her feathers.
Qiao Wanshi exceeded her goal and was very satisfied.
"How many sewing machines do you want?" Qiao Wanshi asked.
"One hundred." Qingzhu stretched out a finger.
But after hesitating, he held out two more fingers.
Qiao Wanshi pursed her mouth, "Do you think that since you have paid for a cloth village, you must buy more sewing machines to avoid losses?" ”
Qingzhu smiled, "I think it's a good thing, no matter how much you buy, you won't lose money." ”
"Then if you hear that a sewing machine costs a hundred taels of silver, won't you feel a loss?" Qiao Wanshi asked.
Qingzhu, "......"
One hundred taels of silver each, then you really have to think about it.
But looking at the speed of the sewing machine, the speed of a dozen female workers on the top of a sewing machine is more than enough, right?
If it is a female worker who is finely worked, fast and good, she must be paid at least twenty taels a year.
The work done by the sewing machine is definitely worthy of the best female workers, and the wages saved by a sewing machine are at least more than 200 taels.
After thinking about it, Qingzhu agreed.
He looked at Qiao Wanshi's sewing machine was made of iron, so strong, it was impossible for it to break down in half a year or a few months.
At most, the belt may need to be changed once in a while, or the sewing needle may need to be changed sometimes.
