Chapter 174: Can't Run

Not only that, when I went out yesterday, I also saw the new truckload of brand-new goods from the cloth village, and Su Yujin also wondered if I should send some monthly money to the big guy in advance, so that the big guy could choose some favorite fabrics early to make new clothes for the New Year.

"It's not that the cloth is out of stock, but that there is only one place to sell this fabric." Mother Liu replied with a smile.

"But what kind of rare fabric?"

"Not really." Liu's mother said, "It's just ordinary muslin, there is nothing special, but the texture of the cloth here is good, but the price is much cheaper than outside, and many people are rushing to buy it, which is very demanding."

It's cheap and good.

Su Yujin nodded slightly, "It's about the cloth I weaved."

I only think about how hard I work to make more money, and when I calculate the cost, I don't calculate my own labor force, so I can sell it cheaply.

"Well, it's the cloth she weaves." Liu's mother nodded, "It is said that she and her sister take turns weaving cloth day and night, and the fabric is woven faster than others, so it is naturally cheaper to sell."

"But when it comes to the speed of weaving this cloth, I see that she can take the cloth out and sell it every day, so I am very curious to roughly calculate, even if the two of them work day and night, it is more than the ordinary skilled hand weaving for ten days, the old slave really can't think of how fast the two sisters can be this hand."

Su Yujin put down the teacup in his hand, "It's so powerful?"

"yes." Mother Liu nodded again, "The old slave also thinks that these two sisters are not very old, and this weaving skill is really amazing, and they are not afraid of hardship or tiredness."

"By the way, the old slave also heard that these two sisters, since they were children, they have no father or mother, they were raised by their grandmother, and now their grandmother is not in good health, and the cost of soup and medicine will cost a lot, and there is a younger brother who is not very old, I think it is also because the family situation is really difficult, so it is quite hard to work."

"Approximately." Su Yujin agreed, but her eyebrows were raised.

But no matter how desperate you try, people are flesh and blood after all.

Even if you are skilled, the speed you can achieve is limited, and you will never be able to use one as ten.

Unless......

Their tools are so good that they can be several times faster than the average loom in the world.

Most of the cloth in Qinghe County, whether it is ordinary muslin or all kinds of silk satin, comes from Songjiang Prefecture, which has almost become one of the cotton textile centers in the country with its exquisite textile technology and fashionable patterns.

Even if the cloth is transported all the way from Songjiang Prefecture to here, plus part of the freight, the price of the cloth is still more cost-effective than spinning and weaving the cloth yourself.

Because of this, even in the north, which is suitable for growing cotton, the textile industry has not developed, but has sold locally produced cotton in large quantities to other places.

If the loom in the hands of this sister is very outstanding and the output is very high, then they can find a way to expand the scale of production and start a textile business.

After the thought in Su Yujin's heart popped up, people couldn't sit still, "Where do these sisters live, what do people call them, can you go to their house this time?"

Seeing Su Yujin's eagerness, Mother Liu hurriedly replied truthfully, "These two sisters' surname is Hong, the elder sister's name is Hong Qiuyan, and the younger sister's name is Hong Qiuyue.

"Since it's not far, let's go here, since Mother Liu knows, I have to bother Mother Liu to show me the way."

As he spoke, Su Yujin was already looking for his cloak.

While helping Su Yujin find the cloak, sleeve warmer, and clogs to wear in the snow, Wormwood persuaded, "Why is the girl suddenly so anxious, it's the same when the snow stops and then look for it, this person can't run."

It's cold and snowy outside, and it's great to fall.

And even if you can't wrestle, it's so cold, how good is it if you freeze the girl.

"People can't run, but if you can't keep them, others are like me, rushing to the door to find them, this kind of matter is sooner rather than later, the weather is bad, and it seems that I am more sincere.

Su Yujin carefully wrapped the cloak.

The brim of the cloak is sewn with a circle of wind hair, which is warm and wind-blocking, Su Yujin's face is small again, and most of his face is covered after wearing the hat, which is not only windproof and warm, but also does not affect his vision.

After putting on Su Yujin's clogs for stepping on the snow, Wormwood and Mother Liu also wrapped themselves in thick cotton clothes, accompanied Su Yujin out of the door, and went to Sister Hong Qiuyan's house.

At this time, the wind was not so strong, only goose feather-like snowflakes fluttered down from the sky, and the snow on the ground was more than two inches thick, and it creaked when stepped on.

There were very few pedestrians on the road, and most of the snow had not been stepped on, so the road was not slippery, and the three of them were wearing clogs, so it was not too difficult to walk.

In the end, the snow was so difficult to walk, and the three of them were afraid of slipping their feet, so they walked carefully and slowly, so that they walked from Shuanggui Lane to the pomegranate alley where Hong Qiuyan's family lived, and they also walked for half an hour.

Mother Liu knew the way, led Su Yujin all the way to the door of his house, picked up the knocker on the door panel, and knocked on it a few times.

A moment later, there was the sound of squeaking snow behind the door, followed by a crisp female voice, "Who is it?"

"Hello Miss Hong." Su Yujin replied loudly, "My surname is Su, I live in Shuanggui Lane, and I came today to discuss business with Miss Hong."

"Today's cloth is sold out, if you want fabric, wait two days and come back, the weather is cold these days, and there is less cloth." Hong Qiuyan replied through the door.

"I'm not looking for Miss Hung, not to buy cloth, but to talk about the side business, I wonder if Miss Hung is interested?"

Su Yujin's words were exchanged for a long silence.

After a long time, the door was opened with a "squeak", Hong Qiuyan, who was not tall and had a round face, stood behind the door and looked at Su Yujin, the leader of the three, "It's windy and snowy outside, since you want to talk about business, then please come in and talk about it."

Su Yujin and the three followed Hong Qiuyan into the courtyard gate.

The courtyard of the Hong family is not large, and the house looks a little dilapidated because of the age, and even the roof can be seen to be a little concave, which is obviously in disrepair.

As he walked through the courtyard, Su Yujin noticed a "creak", which seemed to be the sound of weaving cloth coming from the east wing.

The rhythm sounded bright and relaxed, much lighter than the usual sound of a loom.

As she thought, the Hong sisters were able to sell cloth at a low price, because of the tools.

The conjecture in his heart was confirmed, and Su Yujin became more and more confident in his heart.

Hong Qiuyan invited Su Yujin and the three of them to the hall and poured hot tea, "I don't know what business Miss Su wants to discuss."

"Miss Hong is a cheerful person, then I will open the skylight and say something bright, I see that Miss Hong's loom is very efficient in weaving, so I want to talk to Miss Hong about the business of this loom." Su Yujin said.

The sound of weaving in the east wing came to an abrupt end.
