Xin Die said, "Ma'am, the incident happened in a hurry, and my subordinates only had time to notify the store managers in the nearby areas. Those subordinates who are located in remote areas also ordered people to spread the letter quickly, and at most three days, all the people can be gathered." ."

"Hmm." I'm fairly satisfied with this answer.

"I have summoned you here today. Apart from meeting with you, there are a few things to discuss with you."

"Madam, why bother to talk about business, but we have orders, how dare we not go through fire and water?" Yao An said.

"That's right, just do as Madam orders." Except for Xin Die who remained silent, everyone echoed.

I nodded: "The first thing is, from now on, you don't call me Madam anymore."

"Although I am Chen Luo's wife, isn't my most important identity to you, Su Baogui? Don't forget, who owns your contract now."

As soon as I finished speaking, the hall became silent.

I glanced around for a week, keeping in mind those few managers who looked unhappy.

"Yes, master." Xin Die responded first.

I glanced at Xin Die approvingly.

After Xin Die, the rest followed suit.Regardless of whether the expression is willing or not, at least on the surface, my goal has been achieved.I have only taken over these industries not long ago, and those dissatisfied voices can be reserved for later.

"The second thing, you will know it after reading it, it's clear and simple one by one"

Qingqian responded, clapping her palms together as a signal, and soon a dozen maidservants, either holding bright and beautiful ready-made clothes or mahogany trays filled with treasures, jewelry and spices, walked into the side hall gracefully, Then lined up spontaneously.

The four maidservants on the far right were holding a set of ready-made clothes in their hands. I pointed in their direction and said to Xin Die: "Xin Die, you are the person in charge of Dexin Cloth Village and Dexin Tailored Clothing Workshop. See, how about these suits?"

"Can you take a closer look?"

"Yes." I made a gesture of please.

Xin Die walked up to the maidservant on the far right, took the clothes in her hand, unfolded them, and then I heard an exclamation, from the change of Xin Die's expression, I can tell that she is very satisfied with this ready-made dress,--- - I am not surprised at this point, after all, this is the finished product that Abi carefully tailors in March behind closed doors.

Last spring, Su Yufu went to sea for the first time and stayed at sea for more than half a year before drifting to the Western Continent across the sea. That time, Su Yufu brought back many merchant countries from the Western Continent, even things that the entire Eastern Continent did not have, such as Xizhu The moonlight yarn produced in the country is light in texture and can show a faint moon-white luster in the dark night. For example, the crocodile silk in Miluo country uses crocodile silk as clothing material. The clothes made are as thin as a cicada's wing, but the texture is tough, which is very suitable for making clothes. summer clothes.There are also many precious gemstones, such as amethyst, hibiscus stone, jade pendant, etc., which are rare objects that have a price but no market in Shang Dynasty.

After finishing one piece, Xin Die went to the next one, and after about a cup of tea, she finally finished looking at the four ready-made garments.

When I saw that she had finished reading it, I said: "This is a sample of the 'Amethyst Series' spring clothing that Ningcuifang will launch this year. The gems on it are amethysts from the Western Continent. The first three sets of clothing , each set costs 3000 taels of silver. The last set costs 5000 taels of silver. If you want to predict, how do you think the business of Ningcui Fang will be this spring?"

Xin Die thought for a while, and said in a lukewarm tone: "It will definitely be prosperous like never before."

I nodded "Good."

Ningcuifang is the largest tailor-made clothing workshop in the capital. The owner Ye Ningbi was the Shang Palace in charge of the Clothing Bureau in the early years. The workshop developed into the most prestigious garment workshop in Shang Dynasty.It dominates the dress style of almost the entire circle of noble women in the Shang Dynasty.

Chapter 9 The Long Road to Guining ([-])

Dexin Garment Shop is an industry under the name of Tianshui Villa, and it is distributed in various regions of Shang Country.The clothes in Ningcuifang in the capital city are beautiful, but the asking price is not cheap, thousands of taels of ready-made clothes, talking about ordinary people, even ordinary noble girls in the capital city, they have to think carefully when buying.Relatively speaking, for the clothes of the same material, the asking price of Dexin Tailor Shop is basically less than half of that of Ningcuifang, and although Dexin's clothes are not as good as Ningcuifang, they are also elegant and exquisite, and they will not lose face when they are worn out. .Therefore, although the business and reputation of Dexin in the capital is not as good as that of Ningcuifang, it is also the second close behind.

"These kinds of fabrics and precious stones are not available in the market. I don't know where Ye Shanggong got them. In the past, Dexin could compete with them. This time, the Ningcuifang family is the only one. I'm afraid there is no one." Can beat its momentum."

Although Abi is no longer Shanggong, the people outside still call her Ye Shanggong to show respect.

In the situation where Ningcuifang is almost the biggest rival of Dexin Garment Shop, Xin Die can still give such a high evaluation to the other party, so I can't help but give her a high look.

I nodded: "And if Ningcuifang discloses the source of its materials to other garment stores, the status of Dexin Garment Store may be affected."

Xin Die nodded solemnly: "It is possible."

"Now that you know about this matter, how do you plan to solve it?"

Xin Die thought about it for a long time, but she was always frowning, "Xin Die is stupid, please enlighten me, master."

Well, not too stupid.

I smiled slightly: "I have an old friend..."

***

Near dusk, Jinhua Building delivered meals on time, and there were four exquisitely crafted food boxes on the table. Each food box was divided into three layers, and each layer contained one or two dishes.

After Qingqian opened the two food boxes, I stopped her from opening the third food box: "The remaining two should be sent to Nanny Gu and Ah Mo."

Ah Mo is my bodyguard and best spy. I told him to go to Sucheng to do some errands before, and he didn't come back until this afternoon. Now he is resting in a courtyard that I allocated to him alone in Qingwuyuan.

Qingqian nodded yes, and quickly handed over the matter to the two little girls.

Seeing that Qingqian had done something, I said, "Anyway, there is no one else here, let's sit down and eat together."

"Miss Xie." Qingqian thanked her, filled the rice for me, set out the dishes, served a bowl for herself, and then sat down to eat.

Anyway, when we were in Baoxinyuan, we did a lot of things like this.

I took a chopstick of jasper reed reed and put it in my mouth, chewed it twice, my mouth was full of sweetness, compared with the meal at noon, it tasted like chewing wax.

The people in Jinhua Building knew my preferences, and they cooked all the dishes that I liked. I couldn't help but twitch my index finger, and soon I had a bowl of rice.

I was about to ask Qingqian to add another bowl for me, when I looked up, I realized that this girl was staring at me in a daze, her eyes were burning, the rice in the bowl had barely moved, I don't know how long she had been like this.

I was slightly curious: "What are you looking at me for?"

A frantic gleam burst out of Qingqian's eyes: "The servant was thinking about the matter just now, and the young lady solved the problem of the Jinyu Pavilion in a few words, she is so clever and powerful."

I smiled slightly.

At that time, Xin Die followed the hole I dug and gave me the heavy responsibility of solving the problem. I claimed that an old friend could get the materials used for the new clothes launched by Ningcuifang this season, and the asking price was much cheaper than the world. Xin Die Naturally, I was overjoyed, and asked how much it was, so I doubled the purchase price of those fabrics and gems twenty times and reported it to her.After talking about the 'little leader' Xin Die, the rest of the people naturally had no objections, so I made the decision and asked the accountant to allocate 24 taels of silver for the purchase of raw materials.

But this is indeed a much cheaper price than in the world.This time Su Yufu went to the sea and brought back a thousand pieces of crocodile silk and a hundred pieces of moonlight gauze, which completely filled two boats, and he also spent tens of thousands of taels on gems. In addition, he also brought a boatload of spices. , and some precious medicinal materials, as well as many new gadgets that the Shang country does not have.The five boats were empty when they went, and they were full when they returned. If it wasn't for the high cost of going to sea twice, the Jinyu Pavilion wouldn't even be able to withstand the gap of 10 taels of silver from Mr. Moyu. live.
