Chapter 171 The road back to Beijing is not peaceful
Shopkeeper Zheng was angry and regretful! I also heard shopkeeper Na Luo’s daughter-in-law bragging to the neighbors that Mrs. Xiao had paid them the full price and they would have money to celebrate the Chinese New Year this year!
Shopkeeper Zheng wanted to slap himself hard! For the sake of Miss Li, who could only spend dozens of taels of silver at a time, he offended a wealthy lady who could spend a thousand taels of silver at a time, and even created a strong enemy for himself.
This powerful enemy actually owns a ready-made clothing store next door. Isn't it clear that he wants to compete with him? If her business is successful, will she still be able to do business in her store in the future?
The more shopkeeper Zheng thought about it, the more uneasy he became.
On the first day of Yuanchu, she didn't know that shopkeeper Zheng was like an ant on the hot pot. She asked Li Qiaozhen and Yuan Shiyu to pick out a few pieces of fabric from the store that were suitable for making the dress in shopkeeper Zheng's shop and bring them back. They have been making that set of dresses in the past few days.
After leaving the store, Yuan Chuyi found Qiao Fukun again.
"I've met Madam, what are your orders?"
"I need to find a Xiu Niang master who is skilled in embroidery to help me teach the embroidery girls in the village."
On the first day of the Yuan Dynasty, she thought that since she had opened a shop, she had to do it well. She not only made cotton-padded clothes, but also let the shopkeeper next door see how she seized the ready-made clothing market.
Qiao Fukun knew that she was going to open a ready-made clothing store, so he immediately agreed and said that he would take her to Xishan Village tomorrow.
On the first day of the Yuan Dynasty, after getting Qiao Fukun's promise, she returned to the village with confidence, and then asked Xuan Yue and the others to go to the village and nearby Yuanjiawan and Liujiacun to announce that she wanted to recruit embroiderers. As long as they could be female workers and were good at sewing, Anyone can come and sign up.
As soon as the news spread, the girls and wives in several villages were all excited. They washed their hands all night and polished the calluses.
The next morning, Yuan Chuyi was playing with two children in the living room. She picked up two small wooden eagle sculptures and held them up to the two children. She said with a gentle smile: "These are the eagles made by daddy! Look, the eagle has flown. The eagle is flying high...fly...fly... The baby is here..."
The two children grinned happily and giggled happily. Both pairs of white and fat little hands stretched out to follow the movement of the eagle, and their eyes also moved with it. Those hands wanted to catch the mother eagle.
When Yuanchu saw that they wanted it, he played with them for a while and then gave the eagle to them to play with.
When Xiao Jing was making this wood carving, he was afraid of cutting the child on sharp points, so he polished the wood carvings several times to make them smooth and delicate.
"Have you missed Daddy? I don't know where Daddy is now!"
On the first day of the Yuan Dynasty, he was worried about Xiao Jing. If the culprit behind the food robbery case was a crazy person, he would definitely ambush them on the road in order to kill people and silence them. There will be many dangers on their way back to Beijing.
Just as Yuan Chuyi had worried, Xiao Jing was leading Lou Xingyun and the others to clean up the battlefield. They were attacked last night. Although all the assassins who came were killed, several of their soldiers were seriously injured.
Fang Wuyan was bandaging the injured soldiers at this time, while Xiao Jing was directing others to bury the killers. Nangong Yu brushed his blood-stained clothes in disgust, trying to get rid of the blood on them.
"The closer the killer comes to the capital, the more powerful he becomes! Brother, do we still have the chance to return to the capital for business?"
Xiao Jing adjusted his clothes, "We are in the light and the enemy is in the dark. If we want to return to the capital alive, it seems we will have to fight several times."
Lou Xingyun came over.
"Sir, we have lost many brothers along the way. If there are no more reinforcements, it will be difficult for us to reach the capital safely!"
Nangong Yu sighed, "But we can't mobilize local troops. Besides, we don't know whether the hands of the real culprit behind this grain robbery have reached out to the government agencies and the army along the way."
"How about we ask Jianghu Gang to help!" Lou Xingyun thought for a while and suggested.
Xiao Jing looked at him and said, "Leizhou is just ahead. Which gang in Leizhou can be called upon by the imperial court?"
Lou Xingyun took out a hairpin and said, "This was given to me by Yunduo before leaving. It was said to be a token between her and Miss Mei of Meiyuan Villa. If we encounter trouble in this life, this hairpin can help Please ask Meiyuan Villa to help!”
"Meiyuan Villa!" Xiao Jing thought for a moment, "The third largest Jianghu force in the Jianghu, whose main business is water transport and escorting, and has many masters under its command. If we can ask them to escort us on this trip, we can reach the capital safely. The chance is 10% higher!”
Nangong Yu looked at Lou Xingyun and raised his eyebrows, "You have married a capable wife. If they can help this time, I will definitely ask the emperor to reward them!"
Xiao Jing also nodded appreciatively, "Meiyuan Villa is half a day's journey away. You and Wu Yan rush to the villa to have a look and let Wu Yan replenish some medicinal materials. Regardless of whether they are willing to help or not, you must go back as soon as possible. We’ll rest here and wait for you!”
"Yes." Lou Xingyun immediately called Fang Wuyan to rush to Meiyuan Villa.
Although Yuan Chuyi knew that Xiao Jing and the others were not safe along the way, he was powerless and could only worry secretly. After getting up in the morning and playing with the child for a while, she was having breakfast with the rest of the family. Qiao Fukun came, bringing in a middle-aged lady who was well-dressed, dignified and elegant, and still charming.
Qiao Fukun introduced that the embroiderer’s surname was Shen, and she was the chief embroiderer of their Southwest Textile Workshop under the name of Ruifuzhai. Only if she or her disciples said the needlework in the textile mill was qualified could it be put on the counter for sale.
"I wonder if Mrs. Shen would be willing to stay with me and help me select dozens of embroiderers and teach them some details such as needlework and stitching techniques that should be paid attention to when making garments."
"Yes." Shen Xiu Niang responded respectfully, "I wonder what kind of embroiderer Madam would like to choose? What kind of embroidery work will she do?"
“Sewing dresses and other ready-made garments as well as sewing cotton-padded clothes!”
"Cotton coat!" Shen Xiu Niang was surprised. She had never heard of this cotton coat and didn't know what it was.
On the first day of the Yuan Dynasty, he brought cotton to show her and briefly explained how to make cotton-padded clothes. Shen Xiu Niang immediately looked forward to this cotton coat. On the first day of the Yuan Dynasty, she immediately asked her to select the embroiderers from each village who had been waiting outside the hospital.
Shen Xiu Niang had no requirements for selecting embroiderers, so she took some leftover rags and asked the prospective embroiderers to pick a few pieces and piece them together.
These prospective embroiderers, who ranged from teenagers to forties and fifties, received the task and immediately came forward to receive needlework and cloth strips. They sat down at the long table prepared for them on the first day of the Yuan Dynasty and began to sew.
"Sister Chuyi, can I try too?" Zhang Xiujuan also came in and asked. In addition to loving to plant flowers and grass, she also loves to be a female worker.
"Of course." As long as she is willing, Yuan Chuyi will not stop her from doing what she likes.
On the first day of the Yuan Dynasty, he was leading everyone to try to work. Xuanfeng led Wang Shuying in and said that she had something to ask for.
