Chapter 164: Daily
I will only teach them to raise pigs tomorrow, and Chen Zhou is still very free today.
At home, there was nothing else to do, so I took Cao Shan and the Qiao sisters to go out for a walk.
"Husband, what are you going to give us?"
Qiao Shuang walked in front and asked happily.
Chen Zhou said: "When you like something, you can buy it, I haven't given you a gift yet." ”
Qiao Ying was very gentle and thoughtful and said: "We don't need gifts, my husband is so good to us, it's the best gift." ”
It's still an ancient woman!
Chen Zhou sighed in his heart.
However, Chen Zhou was ready to give them gifts, and of course they were happy.
After walking outside for a while, they found that they didn't have anything to buy, there was nothing missing at home, there were a lot of jewelry, rouge, and they didn't know what to buy for a while.
Cao Shan suggested: "Why don't we buy some cloth and go back and sew clothes for our husband?" ”
"Okay!"
Qiao Ying first agreed: "When I was in Lujiang, I learned to be a female red for a long time, and I could sew it for my husband by myself." ”
Cao Shan smiled: "I have also learned, then we will work together." ”
Qiao Shuang pursed her lips and said embarrassedly: "In the past, I just wanted to play, and I wasn't serious when I was studying, but I can help Sister Shan'er cut cloth, and I am still useful." ”
Before the cloth was bought home, they had already done their job of dividing the work.
"You don't have to think about me, you can think about yourself."
When Chen Zhou saw them like this, his heart warmed.
Cao Shan said: "We don't have anything to lack, but the husband's clothes, coming and going, are all these, and he went to war with the army once, and he broke a lot." ”
Chen Zhou said: "Then go buy cloth, but your things can't be missing." ”
"Listen to your husband!"
Qiao Ying said softly.
They came to the market.
With Cao Cao's relocation of the capital to Xu County, this city became lively, and within the scope of Yingchuan County, it could also be pacified, which was one of the few peaceful scenes in the troubled times.
Merchants are in Xudu and can make money.
The people are in Xudu, and they can live in peace.
In addition to the shops on both sides of the street, there are also many stalls, all of which show that Xu Du is different from other places.
In fact, as some ministers, families, etc., followed the Son of Heaven and moved to Xudu, the market here gradually grew.
After all, those families are not short of money, they are all very rich, and the consumption level has risen like this.
"Husband, this is the Elk family, a newly opened shop in Xudu."
Qiao Shuang came to the outside of a shop and said softly: "Their business name is very big, there is everything in it, and everything is sold. ”
Chen Zhou looked up and saw that it was really the Elk family's business.
After the end of the First World War in Xuzhou, Lu Zhu dragged his family to Xudu to show his obedience to Cao Cao and quickly open the market in Yingchuan.
The firm has been in existence for some time.
Chen Zhou couldn't imagine that the speed of the elk family was so fast, so he was determined to hug Cao Cao's thigh, kicked Liu Da'er away completely, and said, "Go in and have a look." ”
They went to the shop together.
The guys here, at a glance, saw that they were extraordinary, well-dressed, not ordinary people, and enthusiastically followed them to entertain.
Chen Zhou was here, looking around briefly.
Indeed what there is.
From books to wine and food.
In Chen Zhou's cognition, this is a department store.
But in a department store, the style is much lower, there is everything here, it is easier to fall out of place, but in ancient times, there was nothing out of style.
As long as there is a turnover, someone comes to buy something, it is enough.
Chen Zhou led them, bought a lot of fat powder and jewelry, and then went to see the cloth together.
Ancient cloth is actually very simple.
The high-end is silk, and the low-end is hemp.
Draw silk out of linen and weave it into cloth.
Silk is more expensive, but comfortable, and linen is cheaper, but coarse.
The linen cloth is ordinary, and it can't set off Chen Zhou's identity, and as for the cotton cloth, there is no cotton cloth in the Three Kingdoms.
The people here don't know how to use cotton.
Cao Shan and the others, of course, all the ones they chose for Chen Zhou were silk.
Except for the white silk, the quality of other dyed silk is average, the color is dyed, and it is a pure natural plant color, but the color is dull, far less bright than the modern ones.
Including the clothes that Chen Zhou is wearing now, the colors are ordinary, and the dyeing technology during the Three Kingdoms period is not very high.
In fact, you can't blame the technology, you can only blame the times, better dyes haven't appeared yet, and it takes people after them to slowly explore, or accidentally discover.
"Husband, what do you think of these colors?"
Qiao Shuang picked up a piece of light blue cloth.
This light blue is really light.
It's so faint that you can see white.
The dyeing is not even as if the color has not completely soaked the fabric.
Maybe it's because the dye is lighter.
The other red ones, although not bright, but also have uneven dyeing, can appear in the Elk family shop, these fabrics should be the best in the Three Kingdoms period.
"Average, pretty ordinary."
Chen Zhou glanced at it and said instinctively.
"General?"
"Ordinary?"
However, before Qiao Shuang could respond, behind them, there was a voice that seemed to be offended.
They looked back at the same time.
I saw a woman in her early twenties, who was about the same age as Chen Zhou, leading two maids over.
This woman's hair bun is still normal.
Unlike Cao Shan, she combed a woman's exclusive hairstyle.
In this day and age, in her early twenties, she is not yet a woman, and she is a bit out of line.
But the woman doesn't look bad, she looks good, but she can't get married?
Usually in this case, only the woman does not want to marry.
"Are you from the Elk family?"
Chen Zhou looked at this woman with a bit of a royal sister's temperament for a while.
If it weren't for the people of the Elk family, they wouldn't have felt offended in the face of Chen Zhou's words.
As soon as Chen Zhou heard her words, he was able to give an accurate judgment, thinking that she wouldn't be Mrs. Mi, right?
This possibility is still there.
"That's right!"
The woman strode over and asked, "Childe, how do you feel ordinary?" The cloth of my elk family, whether it is silk or ordinary linen, is of good quality in Dahan. ”
She wanted to know why Chen Zhou would say this.
"Don't get me wrong."
Chen Zhou explained: "I'm not targeting your elk family, but I think that the silk of the entire Han Dynasty is very general and ordinary in terms of dyeing. ”
After listening to Chen Zhou's sentence, there were some arrogant words, and the woman didn't know how to evaluate it.
"Alright, we're going to have that."
Chen Zhou was not interested, and explained too much to the people of the Elk family.
I bought my things and left.
