NOVEL NEXT The happy little days of the Ye family
Chapter 19 Selling Embroidery in the County
Grandma Ye took Li, mother and daughter Ye Qingqing to the Tao Family Embroidery Workshop first.
The Tao Family Embroidery Workshop is very grand. As soon as you enter the hall, there are many large and small exquisite embroidery items displayed around it. There is also a small side room for the female family members to rest and drink tea.
As soon as they entered the door, a delicate-looking young woman came forward enthusiastically. "Are the customers looking at the embroidery or selling the embroidery?"
The young woman knew from the look of these people's clothes that they were not rich people, and they were probably here to sell embroidery. However, the smile on her face did not change, and she still entertained Mother Ye and the others very warmly.
"Girl, we are here to sell embroidery." Mother Ye and Mrs. Li were a little cautious when they came to such a magnificent place for the first time. At this time, they could only rely on Grandma Ye.
"Guys, wait a moment, I'll ask the shopkeeper to come out."
Soon, a beautiful woman who was exquisitely dressed and still charming came out of the small side room.
The shopkeeper of the embroidery shop first looked at Li's embroidery pictures. Although Li's embroidery skills were good, they lacked aura and the shopkeeper was not very fond of them.
The shopkeeper likes Ye Mu's gold silk handkerchief very much, and thinks it fits the temperament of Taojia Embroidery Workshop. However, the price given is not high, 205 yuan for a handkerchief, which is only five yuan more than the previous Yangjia Embroidery Shop. .
Mother Ye thought the price was okay, but Grandma Ye was not very satisfied, so she took a few people to the Li Family Embroidery Workshop again.
The Li Family Embroidery Workshop is a little smaller than the Tao Family Embroidery Workshop, but the hall is divided into two parts. On one side are exquisite expensive embroideries, on the other side are elegant affordable embroideries.
As soon as I entered the Lijia Embroidery Workshop, Shopkeeper Li came forward to greet me enthusiastically: "I am the shopkeeper of the embroidery shop - Shopkeeper Li. Do you want to see the embroidery or sell the embroidery?"
"Shopkeeper Li, we are here to sell embroidery." Grandma Ye still took out Li's embroidery first.
"The embroidery skills are quite solid. Although it lacks aura, it is still good. It's just that the silk fabric and the needle and thread are a bit different. If you use better things to embroider, the effect will be better. This embroidery picture costs our embroidery shop three liang or six. Received."
Mrs. Li on the side was very happy. She had worked hard to embroider this picture for two months. She spent five yuan on silk cloth and needle and thread. Now she can make three taels of silver by selling this picture. This is more than The price of embroidery made before was much higher.
"This little lady's embroidered handkerchief is so beautiful, with good colors and patterns. The golden butterfly is vivid, as if it is about to fly out. Although the embroidery method is a bit simple, it doesn't matter. This handkerchief is both exquisite and noble. Those Rich ladies like this kind of embroidery."
Shopkeeper Li has also collected a lot of embroidery in recent months, but it is rare to see such noble and not tacky embroidery.
"I have collected all 12 of your embroidered handkerchiefs at the price of first-class embroidery, 220 per handkerchief."
"Thank you so much, Shopkeeper Li!"
"Thank you, shopkeeper Li! I'll do as you say."
Seeing Grandma Ye nodding, Mrs. Li and Mother Ye happily agreed.
The price offered by Lijia Embroidery Workshop was much higher than that of Yangjia Embroidery Workshop and Taojia Embroidery Workshop in the town. Grandma Ye was also very satisfied. After all, her trip to the county town was not in vain.
"There are still my handkerchiefs. Shopkeeper Li, please help me see if I can collect these handkerchiefs."
Seeing Ye Mu and the others chatting happily, Ye Qingqing forgot about her embroidery and hurriedly handed her own embroidery to shopkeeper Li.
"For your age, this embroidery is pretty good. It's true that you are better than your master. The little girl is quite talented."
Ye Qingqing was a little shy after being praised, and asked in a low voice: "Shopkeeper Li, can you keep these handkerchiefs?"
"Although the embroidery technique is a bit poor, the color matching and embroidery pattern are both good. It can barely be considered a third-class embroidery. It costs 19 cents for a handkerchief."
"Okay, thank you, shopkeeper Li."
Hahaha, my embroidery was accepted by a large embroidery workshop in the county, and the price was increased from 18 to 19 cents. I am so good. Ye Qingqing felt happy in her heart, and her proud little expression was so cute.
"Ms. Li, this is the money for embroidering pictures, three or two and six cents of silver."
"Thank you so much, Shopkeeper Li!" Ms. Li was so happy to get the money. The embroidery she sold at Yangjia Embroidery Shop was worth just over two taels of silver. She didn't expect that she could sell it for three taels or six in the county town. It’s really the right time to come to the county.
"A handkerchief costs 220 coins, and 12 of them make a total of 2640 coins. Mrs. Ye, please count them." Shopkeeper Li placed a few pieces of broken silver and a bunch of copper plates on the table in front of Ye's mother.
"Yes, thank you so much, shopkeeper Li." Ye Mu happily put the money away.
"There is also a little girl's, 19 pieces of handkerchief, 11 pieces of handkerchief, a total of 209 pieces of paper, you count it, my sister won't recognize it when she leaves the house!"
"Yes, thank you sister, sister is so kind."
After getting the money, Ye Qingqing was even happier. Her little mouth was so sweet that she kept saying good things one after another.
"This little mouth is so sweet." Shopkeeper Li couldn't help but pinch Ye Qingqing's delicate little face.
"There are many rich people in the county, and ordinary fabrics and needlework are looked down upon by many people. Madam Li, I suggest you try using better needlework and silk cloth for embroidery. The price of this embroidery can be estimated to double. .”
"Thank you, Shopkeeper Li, for your advice. That's what I had in mind."
Li did have this idea, just like the handkerchief made by Ye Mu, which uses fine silk handkerchiefs and gold threads. Although the cost is high, the profit is also high.
"Ms. Ye, I suggest that you do embroidery. Although your handkerchief looks good, it is still a handkerchief. You can't afford the price of embroidery. Ms. Ye has a flexible mind, and the color matching and the patterns she came up with are very good. OK."
Shopkeeper Li thought for a moment and then said: "If it is embroidered with fine silk and gold thread like this handkerchief, the embroidery pattern will not be able to escape."
Madam Ye has a quick mind, and the embroidery pictures she makes are definitely not bad. If the embroidery pictures can be sold at a high price, she can make more money.
"I just happened to draw a new embroidery pattern recently. It is used for embroidery pictures. When I finish the embroidery, I will bring it over to shopkeeper Li for his eyes."
In the past, Yang's embroidery workshop did not accept large pieces of embroidery, so Ye's mother never made embroidery pictures. If she had known that the embroidery pictures in the county were so valuable, she would not have embroidered handkerchiefs, so she started making embroidery pictures when she got back.
Several people asked Shopkeeper Li about the cloth shop on the street, and planned to buy some fabric and needlework to do embroidery.
"The Yang Family Cloth Shop next door is the largest cloth shop here. Both the fabrics and the needlework are excellent. Although the prices are not cheap, the quality is unparalleled."
The shopkeeper of Yangjia Cloth Shop and Shopkeeper Li are old acquaintances, and they often introduce customers to each other. However, the quality of Yangjia Cloth Shop is indeed good, and Shopkeeper Li is not unconscionable.
"In addition, there is a Chenjia Cloth Shop opposite. The boss hires people to weave the fabrics himself. The prices are much cheaper than ordinary cloth shops, and they often have special discounts on clearance. You can go there to have a look if you have time."
Originally, shopkeeper Li didn't want to introduce Chenjia Cloth Shop, but she fell in love with Ye's mother and thought that Ye's mother could continue to sell embroidery in the future. After some thought, she recommended Chenjia Cloth Shop to them.
