Chapter 15: Sailing North (3)

Hearing that Fang Ling's family was engaged in the silk business, the smile on Ling Xiaoran's face became even stronger, there were too many merchants who were engaged in silk trading, and their grades could not be compared with those of the Wang family merchants who specialized in high-grade wood.

Fang Ling nodded, He Zheng remembered something, and asked: "Recently, my wife is going to celebrate her birthday, I am thinking about what gift to give her, I have asked many people, and they all think that it is best to give a good satin, but I don't know which one to give? Since Fang Gongzi's family is engaged in silk business, why don't you give me some advice?"

Fang Ling thought for a moment and said, "It's summer now, the weather in the north is dry, and there is little rain, but there are still abundant water and grass in the grassland area of the northern border, and there is also a kind of water silkworm growing there. ”

"Water silkworms?" He Zheng said in surprise.

Fang Ling said: "This water silkworm is different from ordinary silkworm species, although it also eats mulberry leaves, but it must live in shallow water, so it is larger and whiter than ordinary silkworms, this water silkworm spits out silk as soft as water, caressing it like silky, and the silk woven into this silk is called water satin, if it is worn on the body, it is not only cool, but also has no sense of weight, I want to buy such a piece of satin, and then let the tailor cut it into a long skirt, it will definitely be liked by Mrs. Zun." ”

He Zheng was immediately overjoyed and said: "It sounds like this, this water satin is really good, I don't know where it is sold?"

Fang Ling smiled slightly and said: "My silk village will be sold again, and when I arrive in Bingzhou City, Brother He will take the time to come to the silk village, and I will personally select it for you." ”

He Zheng nodded again and again: "That's really good, when I arrive in Bingzhou in the afternoon, I will come to the door." ”

Fang Ling smiled, put the bracelet back in the box and said: "Then I will wait for Brother He in the store in the afternoon, I won't take this bracelet, otherwise I will be embarrassed to accept your silver taels, and if Brother He thinks that the silk in the village is good, he will trouble us to publicize it." ”

He Zheng laughed out loud, nodded straight and said, "Don't worry, Master Fang, as long as this silk is really as good as you said, then I will definitely not be stingy with this mouth." ”

Speaking of this, there were other business travelers passing by outside the door, and He Zheng walked out to greet him.

As soon as He Zheng left, Ling Xiaoran, who had not spoken, laughed, and said: "Master Fang, these jewelry are only a few dozen taels of silver, since your cousin wants to give it to you, why do you refuse? Moreover, it is really unfair that a beauty like Miss Song here is not wearing any jewelry." Otherwise, Miss Song, tell me which one of the things in this wooden box you like, and it will be given to you by Ling. ”

Song Ying'er didn't have a good impression of Ling Gongzi, who had been looking at her all the time, but now when she heard him sarcastically mock Fang Ling's stinginess, she snorted lightly, but her face was silent, but she smiled and said, "Ling Gongzi is really generous, that little woman will thank you first." ”

Ling Xiaoran was so fascinated by this smile that his eyes were about to dazzle, and he glanced at Fang Ling unintentionally and said: "Heroes in the world love beauties, if this son has a maid like Miss Song, then he will definitely make a big box of jewelry for you." ”

Seeing Ling Xiaoran being so courteous, He Shuilian couldn't help but snort lightly, and said coquettishly in a buzzing voice: "Cousin, if you even give jewelry to this maidservant, then you must give it to me." ”
