Chapter 133: Who Dragged Whom
The world is chaotic, and the government is weird, but it has nothing to do with ordinary people.
Even the rich and noble families in Gangneung City don't care much about the bosses in the court, what everyone cares about is that the number of homeless people outside the city has gradually increased, and some bad rumors have begun to secretly surge in the city.
The newly appointed Yin of Gangneung Mansion by the imperial court is about to take office, maybe the chaos in and out of the city can be calmed down?
It's just that I heard that the incoming governor Zhang Qicheng Zhang has a bad official reputation, and he has been removed from office before because of greed for ink.
Recently, a kind of magical mirror suddenly appeared in Jiangling City, a palm-sized circle, the mirror surface is translucent, and it can actually illuminate people in detail, just like the legendary fairy treasure!
As soon as this new mirror came out, it immediately compared the previous bronze mirror.
The bronze mirror is stupid and rude, but the shadow is blurry, and it will rust after a long time, so you have to ask a craftsman to polish it carefully from time to time......
Originally, everyone did not have too many complaints about the copper mirror, but since the new mirror appeared on the market, no matter who it is, how to look at the copper mirror is not pleasing to the eye.
The price of the new mirror is expensive, a palm-sized piece, it will be sold for ten taels of silver, it is said that this is still what kind of promotion period, it is sold cheaply, and when the big guys know that there is this thing, they have to increase the price.
It's a little more expensive, but it's not good to resist things.
What's more, the merchant in charge of selling the new mirror said that the cost of this thing is not low, and ten taels of silver is really a loss!
Such a miraculous mirror, in the minds of everyone must have an extraordinary origin, if the cost is really high, everyone also believes, and there are rumors that the new mirror was once reprimanded as an extravagant thing by the real people of the Nine Void Views outside the city, because this mirror is made of silver from white flowers......
Someone who did good things removed the good hardwood lining from the new mirror and found that the back of the lens was really not very bright silver, as if to confirm this rumor, it was really magical.
I don't know whether the rumors are true or not, but the new mirror has been called a silver mirror because of this, and it is more and more sought after by everyone.
As for why the silver mirror is so small, the merchant who sold it said that this silver mirror is not easy to refine, it is difficult to make large pieces, and the material is extremely fragile, so if you want a big silver mirror, it all depends on luck!
As soon as these words came out, everyone understood that the large silver mirror is not nothing, but rare, and it must really appear, and it must be sky-high!
Different from the outside world, a group of people in the Xiangcheng County Lord's Mansion were in a hurry, but they carefully moved a huge dressing mirror that was more than two meters high and one meter five wide.
This full-length mirror is also made of hardwood, but it is not trimmed, as if it is only for ease of transportation.
"The person sent by the Zhao Dongjia brought a message, saying that the carpenter carvers in Yushuwan were too poor, and they were afraid that they would not be able to enter the eyes of the county lord, so they simply made the simplest frames, and after sending them, let us find a skilled craftsman to make a new frame."
Xiao Tao took someone to place this huge dressing mirror in the county lord's bedroom, and babbled about the words that Wang Erhu confessed when he sent the mirror, "Miss, such a big silver mirror is really a rare treasure!"
I heard people outside say that the silver mirror is made of silver, which costs a lot, and Zhao Dongzhu really has the ability! ”
Wei Linglan looked back and forth at the dressing mirrors that had been placed, and the love in her eyes could not be concealed, but the corners of her mouth twitched, and she said unceremoniously: "Don't listen to the nonsense of people outside, silver refining and the like, I'm afraid that the capable Zhao Dongzhu specially let people pass it on."
Such a big silver mirror is really good, but I always feel that the things that Zhao Hengyi's thief made up must not really be made of silver!
On the contrary, I think this thing has something to do with glass. ”
"Miss, isn't it more expensive to make glass?"
Xiao Tao is used to her young lady's whimsy, and she responds casually, but her mind has long been gone.
Wang Erhu came to Jiangling City this time, but he didn't just bring a dressing mirror.
The mirror is much larger than the silver mirror sold on the street, Wang Erhu brought dozens of mirrors, and all the people in the daughter army have it!
Xiao Tao naturally got a side, the size of two palms, and after finishing her errand, she was still in a hurry to go back to her room and play with her silver mirror!
Wei Linglan also saw that her personal maid's mind was not here, and after asking clearly that it was Wang Erhu who escorted the dressing mirror, she laughed at Xiao Tao and let her go.
When the people dispersed, Wei Linglan stood alone in front of the dressing mirror and looked carefully, only to see that her whole person was in the mirror, and the lines on her hair and clothes were clearly visible, it was really amazing!
As early as when the silver mirror was first listed, Wei Linglan sent someone to buy it, and there was more than one side.
It's just that the palm-sized round mirror can't be compared with the dressing mirror in front of you in any way!
Looking at the mirror alone, Wei Linglan didn't know what she thought, her pretty face slowly turned red, and she muttered: "Yun wants clothes, flowers want to look ......"
Elm Bay has added another new entry, and the financial problem has been greatly alleviated.
Miao Xiaoyu looked at the raindrops outside the window and hammered her shoulder.
The ledgers on the table in front of him all use the new bookkeeping method taught by the husband, this method is really easy to use, there are so many workshops in the village, all the accounts are clear, if you use the bookkeeping method that you learned from your father before, I am afraid that it will be a mess long ago.
The textile workshop has been losing money for two months in a row, and although the deficit is not large, it is still abnormal.
The husband is kind-hearted, everyone who works in the workshop can eat in the canteen, and the salary is also very high, these Miao Xiaoyu does not object, and even because of the experience of starving with her sisters, she thinks that everything the husband has done is right.
The textile workshop uses all new looms, and the output is extremely high, which is several times or even more than ten times that of other cloth merchants, even if it invests a lot in its own employees, it can be converted, in fact, the labor cost of this piece, Yushuwan has a great advantage over other cloth merchants.
Today's textile workshops are losing money only because of the rising prices of raw materials.
Since a few months ago, the price of raw materials in Gangneung Province has slowly increased, and nowadays, weaving is no longer profitable.
Miao Xiaoyu, who has been with her father since she was a child, can easily calculate that the proportion of losses of other weaving merchants is even higher.
The rise in raw materials was extremely abnormal, and the price was raised for no reason, and Miao Xiaoyu smelled a familiar smell from it.
"When you are tired, you can rest, these detailed accounts can be handed over to the stewards for review, you just look at the general ledger."
Seeing that his wife was tired, Zhao Hengyi took the initiative to step forward to help rub his shoulders, but was thrown by Miao Xiaoyu.
"Husband, our family loses money when selling cloth, and I'm afraid other businesses will lose even more...... Shall we raise the price? ”
"It's not okay to raise prices...... Someone wants to drag our workshop to death, and they don't come to be rude, but I'm going to drag them to death......"
