The Lu couple felt a little disappointed after hearing what Shi Lidie said.

Mrs. Lu sighed and said:

"Dr. Niu of Huichuntang is really good, but he has a rule that you have to get medicine from him when you see a doctor, but the herbs he uses are too expensive."

"Just the prescription his apprentice wrote cost me five cents of silver for two doses."

Five cents is half a liang, which is enough for an ordinary family of three to live for seven or eight days.

And this is just the money for the little girl's medicine for two days.

The guilt on Lu Huaisheng's face became even more intense. He said:

"Don't worry, ma'am. I'll go out and find a job right away. The Liu family wanted to hire me as a long-term worker, but I was worried about you two, so I didn't agree."

"I'll go find them later and sign a long-term contract. The salary will be higher than short-term work."

Shi Lidie heard the key point and asked:

"Liu family? The Liu family you are talking about, can it be Liu Wenzhong's family?"

"That's right." Lu Huaisheng nodded.

"What did you do when you signed up as a long-term worker for them?"

"I'm ashamed to say that I have only read a few days of books and don't have any other skills. Even if I work as a farmhand, I can only do manual labor with others." Lu Huaisheng said.

For example, carrying dye vats in Liu's dyeing workshop, or helping to carry dyed cloth.

This kind of work can be done as long as you have a little strength. It is not as good as those that require technical skills. Of course, the wages are not very high, but it is better than temporary work.

Mrs. Lu also said:

"You've done enough for us, mother and daughter. It's hard work as a farmhand, and you can't come back at night. Forget it. At most I can take on more work. I see that the embroidery shop likes the handkerchiefs I embroider very much."

Shi Lidie heard this and her heart moved:

"So, Mrs. Lu, when you said you wanted to do some handicrafts, were you talking about embroidery?"

"Yes, I originally learned the art from an embroiderer from Mianzhou, so I have some skills."

Mrs. Lu nodded, and then explained:

"After coming here, I originally wanted to find a long-term job in an embroidery workshop, but I didn't expect that the embroidery workshops in Luoyun Town all require the embroiderers to eat and live in the workshops."

"I am worried about my daughter, so I don't meet their requirements. I can only do some odd jobs to supplement the family income."

Seeing that Shi Lidie was interested in Mrs. Lu's embroidery, Granny Huang took the initiative to bring the basket over and showed it to her:

"Look, this is what Old Lu's wife embroidered. Her craftsmanship is not much worse than the best embroiderer in the embroidery shop. It's a pity that Yaya is in poor health and cannot do without her care, so it's delayed."

Shi Lidie smiled when she saw the lifelike flowers and butterflies on the handkerchief:

She now suspected that she was the one who had the koi luck.

I just dozed off and someone brought me a pillow.

In the previous second, Liu Wenzhong refused all the embroidery and garment shops in the town to do business with her, and in the next second, she found an embroiderer with excellent skills.

Facts have proved that doing good things will be rewarded.

Looking at the old Lu couple, she suddenly had a bold idea...

Thinking of this, she asked Lu Huaisheng:

"You worked in the Liu family's dyeing workshop before, so you should be familiar with their dyeing process, right? If I let you dye cloth, can you do it?"

Lu Huaisheng thought about it and nodded hesitantly:

"I understand the basic steps, but I need someone to teach me some crucial ones."

"That's no problem." Shi Lidie waved her hand nonchalantly and asked Mrs. Lu, "Give me the fabric and the blueprint. How quickly can you make a piece of clothing?"

Mrs. Lu also hesitated for a while and said:

"That depends on the design and the size of the clothes. I made my daughter's clothes, and a simple style only takes one day."

"If it's as complicated as the ones in the Embroidery Shop, it would probably take me ten days or half a month to do it alone."

After hearing this, Shi Lidie smiled and said:

"I want to start a new business. I wonder if Brother Lu and Sister Lu are willing to cooperate with me?"

"Don't worry. I don't need you to sign a long-term or short-term contract. I will provide the dyeing technology and clothing drawings, and you two will be responsible for the production. The money we earn will be divided according to our contribution. How do you think?"

The Lu couple seemed to be hit by this sudden surprise and didn't react for a long time.

It was Granny Huang who said excitedly:

"Of course! Boss Shi is kindhearted. Doing business with her is better than going out to work. Besides, Boss Shi's home is close to us. I'll take care of Yaya for you. You can come back to see her anytime. There won't be any problem."

Hearing this, Brother Lu still hesitated and said:

"That's true, but I'm just an outsider after all. I've never dyed cloth myself. What if Boss Shi loses money?"

Shi Lidie waved her hand and didn't care:

"Don't worry. It's normal to have wins and losses in business. I won't ask you to compensate for the losses."

"Please think about it carefully. If you agree to cooperate with me, then we can choose another time to discuss the details."

This is a serious matter and should be carefully considered.

The Lu couple did not agree immediately, which made Shi Lidie feel that they were reliable people who would think carefully before doing anything.

Shi Lidie left Grandma Huang's house and returned to the tavern.

At this time, the crazy system in my brain finally couldn't help but speak:

[Host, don't tell me, you want to start a clothing business? Do you want to compete with the Liu family? ]

[Drinking some horse urine makes you arrogant, but if you use an egg to hit a rock, your life or death is unpredictable! ]

[You don't think that you and the Lu family alone can defeat the Liu family, right? ]

[I've made it clear in advance, I'm a crazy system, not a turtle in the wishing well. If you want to do this, I can't help you.]

Even Aya, for once, did not sing a different tune and said:

[The host was indeed impulsive this time. 】

Shi Lidie listened to the two systems pouring cold water on her, but she didn't mind and just said:

"Who said you two can't help me?"

"Ah Feng, I really need the things in your mall, the dyeing technology and the ready-made clothing drawings. I will buy them when the time comes."

"Aya, just assign more tasks to me and give me more rewards. After all, you need to spend money in the early stages of starting a business."

"As for whether or not to challenge the Liu family, it all depends on the Liu family's attitude."

"After all, I can't buy clothes anywhere else in town. You can't stop me from finding an embroiderer to make them for me, right? Then the Liu family can't control what clothes I wear when I go out, right?"

"It would be interesting if he couldn't tolerate that."

Ah Feng: ...

Aya:......

[Don’t you know who Liu Wenzhong is? He can’t tolerate a fart! ]

[I think you are just waiting to be evil, waiting to set a trap for others! ]

"So what? I can't just passively take a beating, right?" Shi Lidie smiled. "The men around Song Miaomiao are one after another, and each one is more powerful than me. Am I supposed to just accept my fate? Then what's the point of you two binding me to travel through time?"

The system was stumped by the question and remained silent.

For Shi Lidie, Liu Wenzhong's "wind-breaking nature of bending for only one person" really gave her a headache and she had to be on guard against it.

And all she did was just to leave herself a way out.
