Jinxiu Nanzhi, determined to be the richest woman

Silk is available. I heard from the two silk thread shops in town that their cotton is mainly controlled. Now the cotton output is not high. They get the goods from cotton farms controlled by the government. In order to reduce costs, they mix it with cotton. Compared with pure cotton silk thread, the price is within a controllable range.

Those pure cotton silk threads are mainly affordable to the rich and wealthy people of the government, and if you want to get the goods, you must have a relevant store with a government seal.

However, cotton cultivation is not regulated. As long as you can grow it, the final harvest, whether it is for your own use or for sale, is not regulated.

Yu Muyun plans to start from this aspect and purchase cotton. He does have seeds, but he hasn't planted them yet. He probably won't be able to take care of them by then. Yu Muyun has heard about Tian Yinian's words, and it is estimated that by the end of this year It's about getting married.

I discussed with my family that I might have to go out to look for it alone. Yu Jiajin, who has been out for half of the year, took over the job because he had done work such as pulling silk before and knew where the cotton was mainly. .

There is no such thing in our province. We have to go to neighboring provinces where there are people growing it.

As soon as the Yu family gathered together, they asked Yu Jiajin to work in the fields, and set off with a package of dry food. In addition to the package, Yu Muyun inquired about the price of cotton, and took out most of the money in the money box.

"Be smart along the way, okay?"

The elders of the Yu family instructed.

"Don't worry!" Yu Jiajin patted his chest and took the donkey on the road. The donkey was recently bought by his family and could be used to carry goods, saving some money on hiring a car.

This time we had to go a long way, so we asked him to take the donkey with him.

Yu Jiajin was carrying a baggage with only two clothes inside. The clothes were also simple and would not attract attention.

This time, in addition to being able to make a quilt for Yu Jiaxi, the remaining cotton can also be used to weave cloth. Compared with threads mixed with other threads, pure cotton threads can make cloth that is relatively warm.

Yu Jiaxi, a girl about to get married, didn't worry about this. As for cotton, Tian Yinian only knew that it had to be shredded when it was bought back, but he didn't know anything else.

The fabric for Yu Jiaxi's wedding dress has been woven, and the color Yu Muyun specially selected, Dahongshan, is not too rose-red or orange-red.

Added a darker color to make jacquard.

The fabric came out, and Yu Jiaxi had to make it by himself, because he had done it in an embroidery workshop before, so he still knew how to cut the wedding dress, but Yu Muyun still asked his sister-in-law to draw the drawings.

After a rough look, they all appear to be of ordinary cutting style. Except for a set of inner garments, there is only one layer on the outside, and they are all in one piece.

Yu Muyun couldn't help but draw one. Although he had never come into contact with clothes such as Hanfu in his previous life, he had seen them. Yu Muyun drew them according to their appearance.

"This looks good!" The wives of the Yu family came over to watch after receiving the drawings.

"Isn't this wedding dress too grand?"

"As long as the embroidery is done properly, it shouldn't be possible!"

"Besides, if I wear this clothes until the end of the year, I think it will be warmer than this!"

The whole family put it together and decided to make it according to the pattern drawn by Yu Muyun. As long as the embroidery complied with the rules, no one would say anything. Besides, except for the fixed styles, the rules did not say that such a style must be used.

According to the drawing, I cut the clothes according to the layers mentioned by Yu Muyun. I used an upper and lower style. The outer clothes are longer but not trailing. The embroidery is more complicated. In addition to the inner clothes, there is also a The cotton-padded clothes won’t be too cold by then. I have to wait until the cotton is bought and then dye and weave the silk. It’s easier and doesn’t require embroidery. There’s no rush now.

Yu Muyun plans to make the lower skirt pleated.

This style, I heard, is rare and almost non-existent. They are all straight up and down, with skirts several meters wide, and there are no too many modifications except embroidery.

For this skirt, Yu Muyun specially knitted another piece of the same color and made it jacquard with gold thread.

The most important thing is to rush to make the outer clothes and the inner girdle, both of which need to be embroidered. Time is running out. Originally, the inner girdle is not embroidered, but the rules here require that the girdle be embroidered, and There must be embroidery, preferably gold and silver thread. It can be seen by others, but it must be there.

Because I have to supply this fabric to Ye Chanyi at the same time, the fabric for the skirt can be supplied more slowly.

Yu Muyun and his family worked together, but his contract with Ye Chanyi was about to expire.

According to current calculations, although other members of the Yu family can come forward to open a store by himself, Yu Muyun Haas plans to wait until he has saved enough money. He will also buy land in the village for farming, raise mulberry silkworms, and To open this thread-pulling workshop, we need to recruit workers for weaving, and we also need space.

Therefore, if you run this business by yourself, you still have to wait a little longer. Although it is different from what you expected before, some things still have to be done slowly.

On May 23rd, Ye Chanyi came to pick up the fabric. This was the last fabric in the contract. Yu Muyun prepared the fabric as usual, in the quantity agreed upon before.

The clerk checked the fabric as usual, while Ye Chanyi looked at Yu Muyun, feeling a little embarrassed.

"Little boss, our contract has expired. Are you lucky enough to be able to renew it?" Ye Chanyi looked at Yu Muyun and asked, with a cautious look on her face. Yu Muyun had said that it was possible before we cooperated. If you want to go it alone, you may not be able to provide fabrics. In the past few months, your own fabric shop has been making a lot of money. With a few pieces of fabrics, you have come into contact with the people above, and officialdom matters. It went a lot smoothly, and I really didn't intend to end the contract just yet.

Yu Muyun was at the table. The big table at home had been moved out. The fabric for the lower skirt of Yu Jiaxi's wedding dress had been woven, cut to a width of six meters, and pleated using a charcoal bucket.

The six-meter width is cut into pieces, divided into four pieces, two widths, and then pleated.

Use unused cloth to pad the top, and then fill the charcoal bucket with hot charcoal. After conducting heat, iron the pleats out, just like the irons of later generations, but this time you need to use hot charcoal in the copper bucket for ironing. It's hot and relatively dangerous to operate.

Yu Muyun was small and easy to operate on the table. He demonstrated two pleats and handed them over to the adults. The main reason was that he was worried about Yu Muyun holding the charcoal bucket on top. After all, the charcoal bucket was dangerous and if it got hot, It's not going to be good when it arrives.

"Little boss, what are you doing? Ironing clothes?" Ye Chanyi asked curiously.

Looking at the fabric, it was obvious that it had not been sewn before it was ironed, which made Ye Chanyi a little curious.

"Skirt, my little aunt's wedding dress! Boss Ye wants to discuss a contract?" Yu Muyun said simply and then asked.
