Chapter 389: Talent
It was just a little bit of color in the mud marks, but Sun Shining was so sure that it was nothing more than the faint fragrance of the acacia flower, which was enough for her to distinguish.
For more than half a year, the Sun family's workshop has been most proud of making acacia flowers into rouge gouache, and the finished powder has a unique velvet texture of acacia flowers, which is said to be crystal clear on the face, making people reluctant to look away.
Therefore, Sun Shining knows a lot about acacia flowers, and a little aftertaste that has not yet dissipated is enough for her to grab: "The place with the most acacia flowers in the city is in the north of the city, and the Sun family has to go over to pick them every year when they bloom and save them for the whole year." ”
"Now is not the season for acacia to bloom." Shen Nianyi said in a low voice.
"So, this man came from the Sun family's workshop." Sun Shining had already thought one step earlier, "The end of the month is the day of delivery in the workshop, so it's okay for us to go over and take a look." ”
"Can you do it conveniently?" Shen Nianyi asked, he knew Shining's character, the moment she married into the Sun family, it was equivalent to completely defecting to him, she kept saying that she was just a guest of the Sun family, and her stepmother Xue had her own children, and the Sun family had Shiying and Shitian.
"There's nothing inconvenient, I'd love to see who wants to give me such a big gift when I get married." Sun Shining has never expressed her position on this matter, she is not afraid, she is not panicked, it does not mean that she does not mind, she has been married together for the rest of her life, she has never given her a clean and good life, and sent such an unlucky thing over.
If you find out which one is evil-hearted, you will not be spared.
The Sun family's workshop still has to go to the door to speak, there is still a plaque of the emperor's handwritten imperial book hanging at the door, and several masters are more exquisite than those in the Hanlin Academy, and everyone they see is a nostrils facing the sky.
That is, she was a little polite to her eldest girl, because of the words she said when she stepped into the workshop for the first time, which calmed the audience.
Liu Lulin walked in front, she was behind, and when she was about to get to the door, Mr. Liu also took care of a few words, and when he stepped into the door, all the people in it were uncles, and they couldn't afford to offend anyone.
Sun Shining said with a smile, she is just here to walk around, and the nominal family members always have to go to their own territory, turn around, and go back to make a show.
Mr. Liu's words always have seven points of truth, Sun Shining is very willing to listen, so she puts her posture very appropriately, dignified with caution, if she wants to support the scene, she must smile silently and give the other party a face.
Unexpectedly, the two of them stepped in with one foot, and they heard the sound of porcelain smashing on the ground, the fragrance in the room was fragrant, someone jumped straight there, scolding, begging for mercy, chaotic and not looking, she had to be carefully distinguished, in order to guess the approximately, the head oil to be sent to the palace, the finished product tasted wrong, obviously the formula was not wrong, the process was not wrong, I don't know which link went wrong.
If you know the mistake, then you can remedy it in time, I'm afraid that I will do it again in accordance with this process, or it is wrong, the objects sent to the palace are no more than others, as long as it is wrong once, don't say that the family business of the Sun family is not guaranteed, and these people in the workshop, from the master to the apprentice, I am afraid that the head can not be saved.
Sun Shining can understand why these masters are easy to be anxious and have been living under huge pressure, so everyone is alive and well, and they can do it at one point.
"The smell of the head oil is wrong." Sun Shining's voice was not loud, Liu Lulin didn't know her talent at the time, so he hurriedly pulled her behind, she lowered her head and smiled, and those people present stopped what they were doing, and dozens of pairs of eyes stared at her.
"Who is this, making a big fuss here!"
Sun Shining did not say her identity, she gently sniffed the fragrance around her body: "This head oil of the Sun family should be jasmine, hosta flowers, plus a little lilac, this time when the material is cut, I am afraid that it is not white lilacs, although the fragrance of lilacs smells the same, it is only dried in the sun, but it is slightly astringent, so the aroma of the concoction is not enough, something goes wrong, it is not difficult to make a new one, just replace it with white lilac." ”
The old master was dumbfounded, and it took a long time for someone to shout at the top of his voice: "Quick, go to the treasury and see if you have used the wrong lilac." ”
"Lilac rouge is very good." Sun Shining walked to the only bookcase in the room, picked up the chromatography booklet on the table, opened it and looked at it twice, "There is a kind of rouge powder with purple in it, extremely charming, it is said that the most popular one is a yellow-faced woman, who looks white and pink when she wipes this." ”
"This girl sounds like a real expert, hurry up and make tea, girl, please sit down, sit down and talk." The workshop is a place where she speaks with her skills, and she doesn't even need to tell her true identity, it is all greeted by a good tea number and dim sum, and Liu Lulin doesn't break it directly, standing aside, smiling slightly.
Sun Shining saw that the silver silk roll brought up was good, picked it up and took a bite, the old master surnamed Bai stood beside him with a blank look and waited for the news, and the apprentice who went to the warehouse came back after a while, leaned into Master Bai's ear, and kept whispering, Master Bai's eyes gradually brightened, obviously Sun Shining said everything, and everyone was relieved to find the source of the error.
"The girl is really a master, as soon as she enters the door, she will break the key point, I don't know if the girl can come and go often in the future, come to the workshop to dial one or two, presumably it is already inexhaustible." Master Bai politely arrived home, and only then did he see Liu Lulin, "Mr. Liu is also here, just in time, fortunately with this girl's help today, so as not to run away and make a big mistake." ”
At this time, Liu Lulin coughed and said: "This is the eldest girl of the Sun family, that is, the family of Master Sun after his absence, Master Sun has handed over all the workshops and the Sun family to her to manage, she was not involved in these, only learned some skills to read the accounts, today I came to the workshop for the first time, I hope you will see that she is young and not more things in the future, and more help with it." ”
The people in the workshop, early in the morning, heard that the Sun family was a young woman in charge, but the old man's wife, they didn't like it very much, they didn't have any ability, but they talked more than anyone else, and they were ready to wait for the new master to come, give some color, and let her know the difficulties and benefits of the workshop.
Unexpectedly, this side was not ready, this one directly gave everyone in the workshop a dismount, and Master Bai was surprised and happy in his heart: "Mr. Liu must have taught the eldest girl the skills before letting people out." ”
This is too obviously a temptation, Liu Lulin is also experienced, touched his nose and smiled: "Master Bai is too exalted to me, I am just in charge of the accounts, look at the account room of the manifest, where do you understand this." ”
"What does Mr. Liu mean is that this is the eldest girl's own ability?"
"Otherwise, why did Master Sun come all the way to bring her back from outside, and before he died, he handed over all the family business to her, Master Bai looked at how old she was, she wasn't born to eat this mouthful, where can she tell those doorways?"
"Yes, yes, as soon as she stepped through the door, she already knew everything about it, not comparable, not comparable." Master Bai saw that Sun Shining was quietly drinking tea and eating snacks from beginning to end, and the goodwill in his heart increased by two points, and the few words seemed to be more real.
Sun Shining over there had already finished drinking a cup of tea, stood up, and said with a smile: "I am new to here, you are all my masters, and I will ask for more advice in the future." ”
This sentence is what Liu Lulin taught, and it can appear cordial and win people's hearts, and it does not lose the dignity of being a family, after all, the master of the workshop is still the person below, and he can't really sit on an equal footing and mingle.
Therefore, the girl's reserve was taken out and used, it was appropriate and beneficial, and Master Bai was very useful, and personally led Sun Shining to inspect the warehouse, and carefully looked at her demeanor while walking, and saw that she was not pretentious at all, and she was really good at distinguishing spices.
She listened and watched and smelled, walked down in a circle, and there was a smile on the corner of her mouth, but Master Bai was a little apprehensive, a woman who talked a lot was noisy, and a woman who talked little was not easy to guess.
Sun Shining looked at the equipment of the workshop again, and when he left, he smiled and said: "Although my father is no longer there, these family businesses of the Sun family are in my hands, although they are not as rich and noble as the family, it is also a family heirloom, thank you for always staying in the Sun family, never abandoning, from next month, everyone's monthly income will be increased by 20%, and at the end of the year, if the feedback in the palace is good, then another reward." ”
Sun Shining walked out of the workshop, Liu Lulin shook his head while laughing: "The big girl really either doesn't make a move, or she spends a lot of money, and everyone adds 20% of the salary, which is a lot of money." ”
"Is it big? I looked at the ledger sent back from the palace, and the salary was really a tiny fraction. "Most of the profits are used to make points up and down in the palace, and there are not many that fall into the real Sun family's pocket," the palace also raised the price twice. ”
Liu Lulin laughed and said, "Add two more percent!" ”
"Why not?" Sun Shining said, "Of course, the price increase of the same goods will be criticized, if it is replaced with completely different new goods, those concubines in the palace like it, and it is a matter of course to increase the price of two achievements." ”
Liu Lulin was secretly taken aback, and hurriedly said, "What does the eldest girl mean to overthrow all the previous ones?" ”
"Slowly changing generations, only by pushing new ones can we make a lot of money." This was a key step for Sun Shining in the Sun family's business, and since then, by the time she returned to the Xue family, the Sun family's property had multiplied several times.
When the master of those workshops heard that the eldest girl was married, he gave a whole box of rouge gouache, saying that it was the only one made especially for the eldest girl in charge, Sun Shining said this, covered the corners of his mouth and smiled: "Xianggong, do you want to take a look, there is a box as big as a bed, I will use it until I am old, I am afraid I will not be able to use it up." ”
