Fu Lang told me not to mess up

Chapter 32

Mu Zhangmo often came to handle errands, and he was already very familiar with the clerk in charge of the matter, so he quickly went through the process.

Lu Jing and Mu Zhangmo each held a stamped contract, and the Yamen kept a copy of the contract as a deposit, and the contract relationship came into effect.

Mu Zhangmo and Lu Jing made an appointment to come to the door the next day, and they separated at the gate of the yamen.

Lu Jing folded the deed and put it in his sleeve pocket, turned his head and said to Brother Yun, "Let's go to Wanning cloth shop." There are

two cloth shops in the town, one is called Liuyun cloth shop and the other is called Wanning cloth village.

Wanning Cloth Shop is the high-end store that Lu Jing passed by before. His store does not take the cheap route, and usually buys fabrics that are newly fashionable in Fucheng. The phenomenon of following the trend has always existed throughout the ages. Miss Madam would go to his house from time to time to look at the new arrivals, so as not to keep up with the trend.

Liuyunbuzhuang mostly sells cotton and linen cloth, and the customers are basically the nearby villagers and ordinary people in the town. Therefore, the ready-made clothing business of Liuyunbuzhuang is not good. Spend more money on clothes.

Wanning cloth shop mainly sells silk and satin. What rich people want is luxury and a status symbol. Other than that, they just want to buy a novelty. If any kind of fabric is popular in Fucheng, it must be bought and tried. Otherwise, if you attend a banquet on weekdays, others will not be able to get in your mouth when they talk about it.

While walking, Lu Jing recalled the news he had inquired from shopkeeper Wang. He needed to test whether his design idea was in line with the taste of the market. It is undoubtedly the best way to find Wanning cloth shop. Rich people are willing to spend money to customize garments. Willing to pay for novel designs.

"We're here."

Brother Yun's voice interrupted Lu Jing's thoughts. He looked up and saw that the two of them had already reached the door of Wanning cloth village. He calmed down his thoughts and stepped into the store with Brother Yun.

There are not many people in the store, they should be regular customers, picking fabrics by themselves in twos and threes, when the shopkeeper suddenly saw a new face and greeted him with a smile.

"What do you two guests need? There is a new batch of goods in the store. It is the most popular Yuhua brocade in Fucheng recently. The fabric is soft and has a certain thickness. It is perfect for spring clothes." He said

. Then he attracted two people to look at it, the shopkeeper's eyes were vicious, although the two people were not dressed in rich and noble clothes, they were also dressed in fine cotton, and they were neat and clean, so they might be their potential customers.

Lu Jing also wanted to see the high-end fabrics of this era, so she walked to the fabric cabinet.

Yuhua brocade has smooth tentacles, and the dyeing is also very vivid. Most of them are light yellow grass green and peach red azure. It must be very popular with young women. Coincidentally, it is also very suitable for tailoring the clothes designed by Lu Jing. .

Lu Jing didn't hesitate anymore, he smiled and said to the shopkeeper: "I have a blueprint of a ready-made garment here, which is guaranteed to be a style that is not available in the town. Would the shopkeeper be interested in taking a look?" The shopkeeper's surname is Zhang, and this cloth shop

is His owner's family has the most profitable business in the town. He can become the shopkeeper of this shop because he has a good eye and knows what the rich people in the town like.

Lu Jing's words aroused his interest. There were quite a few people selling embroidery patterns in the store, and he was the first to sell clothes styles. He smiled, "Of course I'm interested.

" After drawing the drawing, the indifference in his eyes was immediately replaced by strong interest. Although the drawing in his hand was not colored but only outlined with lines, it was enough to see the novelty of the clothes.

Did he leave the city after years of business practice? He stabilized his excitement and asked, "Is this my little brother's clothes?"

Lu Jing nodded, "Exactly."

Shopkeeper Zhang was a little hesitant. My brother's clothes have always been men's or women's clothes. I don't know if he likes this specially designed style.

The two little brothers who were standing by the side picking out the fabrics had already noticed their side. At this time, when the shopkeeper Zhang asked the man opposite with the blueprint, they thought it was a new embroidery pattern, so they all walked over to have a look.

After seeing clearly the content on the blueprint, the little brother in concubine-colored clothes exclaimed: "It's so beautiful!" The other

little brother also saw clearly, and echoed: "Yes! Shopkeeper Zhang, this is Do you want to customize the pattern of the ready-made clothes?"

Shopkeeper Zhang turned to face the two younger brothers, and said with a calm smile, "It's the new pattern from our store, Mr. Zhao and Mr. Zhou, can you make one?" The

little brother in the concubine color dress The son nodded repeatedly and said, "I'll have one, and I'll use the Yuhua brocade I picked just now."

Not to be outdone, the other brother also said hastily: "I want one too, and I'll pick the satin later. Do it, we have to make it together."

Their clothes are made first, and then they can be displayed in front of other brothers. He felt happy thinking about the scene, and urged shopkeeper Zhang: "Measure us quickly." Come on, hurry up and do it!"

Shopkeeper Zhang called Qiao Niang to the store, and a woman in her thirties came out, and he told the woman: "Take the two gentlemen in to measure body."

Qiao Niang nodded yes, and was about to lead the two younger brothers to the inner room, Zhang shopkeeper smiled at them and assured them: "I will definitely make it for the two young masters as quickly as possible."

The two young brothers were very excited, chatting about the new pattern and followed the tailor lady. Shopkeeper Zhang turned around to face Lu Jing and the two with a smile on his face, "You two, please go to the inner room to talk."

Lu Jing nodded, and followed shopkeeper Zhang to the backyard with Brother Yun, only to find that Wanning Buzhuang is not only big in front, but also has a different world behind it.

The backyard is very spacious, with stone tables and chairs. There are four or five rooms in the big house, most of which are used as warehouses. There are two rooms in the inner room, which can be used for entertaining guests or for tailor-made fittings.

Shopkeeper Zhang brought Lu Jing and the two to the spare inner room, and said, "I have accepted this design from Wanning Cloth, this young master can make a price." A piece of

Yuhua brocade is eight taels of silver, The price of ready-made clothes with novel styles will not be cheap, and two sets of clothes have been sold before buying the pattern, which also gave Lu Jing the confidence to negotiate the price. He calculated the profit of the clothes and quoted a price "Fifty taels."

Shopkeeper Zhang's complexion changed, he thought in his heart that thirty taels would be the best, and a good embroidery pattern is only a few taels of silver. This is really a lion's mouth.

He said in a deep voice, "My lord's asking price is too high, don't you think I'm being taken advantage of?"

Lu Jing smiled unhurriedly, "Master Zhang was joking, I do business with sincerity, why should I say you are being taken advantage of?" There is only one copy of this pattern, Wanning cloth shop should not be limited to this one store in the town, right? Other branches can also use this pattern to make money, so not only is fifty taels not much, but it is very cost-effective." Shopkeeper

Zhang Hearing his reason, his complexion also eased, but he still said stubbornly: "What does it matter to me that other branches make money?"

Lu Jing shook her head and said: "Shopkeeper Zhang's words are wrong, you submitted the design, other The branch store has made money because of this, and the owner will naturally credit you for your contribution." The shopkeeper

Zhang knew that this was a hard problem, and there was no point in bargaining, so he cupped his hands with a smile on his face and said: "Young master is young. But it's Linglong's heart, Zhang admires it."

Lu Jing pretended not to hear his eccentricity, and only smiled and said, "Master Zhang is ridiculous."

Shopkeeper Zhang twitched the corner of his mouth, taunting him that he was too thoughtful and he agreed, many people have never seen such a thick-skinned person.

Now that shopkeeper Zhang has accepted Lu Jing's price, he decided to make a quick decision. He said, "Buy out this design for fifty taels, and you can't sell it to another one."

Lu Jing nodded, "It's natural. Now that the negotiation

was settled, the two quickly signed a contract, which stipulated that if Lu Jing sold more than one picture, he would have to compensate Wanning Buzhuang with five hundred taels of silver.

With the help of Brother Yun, Lu Jing read the contract and signed it readily.

Shopkeeper Zhang couldn't get away, so he called Xiao Er to come over and get the deed to be stamped at the Yamen, and Lu Jing was also at ease. Anyway, he would check the black and white paper after getting it back, and there was no room for manipulation.

Shopkeeper Zhang originally asked them to wait in the inner room, but Lu Jing took Brother Yun to the store. Brother Yun was a little confused and didn't know what Lu Jing was going to do.

Lu Jing glanced around, and then took Brother Yun to a cloth cabinet. He pointed to a red cloth and said, "Brother Yun likes this?

" Guessing his intentions, he refused in a low voice: "Brother Lu, we can go to Liuyunbuzhuang to buy ordinary cotton cloth, and we don't need to buy such expensive ones.

" This must be very nice, I want to see Brother Yun wear it on his big wedding day."

Brother Yun's face was steaming, and he thought to himself why Big Brother Lu is not shy at all, and he is not afraid that others will laugh at them when he says this in public. Annoy him, but the sweetness in my heart can't deceive anyone.

Seeing that he didn't object anymore, Lu Jing took the cloth and went to pay the money. Only then did shopkeeper Zhang know that they were not married yet, so he smiled and said, "Since you want to make wedding clothes, why don't you make them in our shop? I'll do it for you." cheaper."

Brother Yun refused: "No, thank you shopkeeper Zhang for your kindness, I can do it myself." After speaking, he looked at Lu Jing inquiringly.

Lu Jing knew that he wanted to save some money, and also wanted to make wedding clothes by himself. He thought that if Brother Yun had nothing else to do, he might have to go up the mountain again. At least he would make clothes at home, so he wouldn't feel tired at all. He nodded with a smile.

The shopkeeper Zhang was so tired of them that he couldn't see it, so he didn't persuade him much, "This is the Tianxiang brocade that has been selling very well in the shop, and it costs four taels of silver for a horse. It's cheaper for you, so let's give it three taels or eight hundred taels. " Lu Jing smiled and thanked: "Thank you, Zhang Zhang.

"

One for Lu Jing.

Both of them unfolded it to check it was correct, and the shopkeeper Zhang took out the prepared silver bill and handed it to Lu Jing. Lu Jing collected the silver bill and the deed, thanked shopkeeper Zhang, and left with cloth in his arms.

Thinking that brother Yun's hand grease might be used up, and he probably wouldn't tell himself when he used it up, Lu Jing planned to buy it for him first, so that if he didn't use it, he would use it consciously.

The rouge shop was not far from here, and he thought that brother Yun would stop him if he went together, so he asked brother Yun to wait for him here, and he would come back as soon as he went.

Brother Yun nodded, and stood at the corner of the street waiting for him with his arms in his arms.

Li Yuan's life has been very difficult during this period. In order to continue to receive support from the Liu family, he took the initiative to engage in marriage with brother Xi during the Chinese New Year. After that, although the Liu family resumed support for him, every time they gave money, they said nothing. Not nice.

For a while, he said that he must be admitted as a scholar to avoid losing his family's face, and for a while he beat him to be careful, otherwise he would be ruined if he was found out.

He felt like he was begging and they were giving him alms from above.

The resentment in his heart is getting bigger and bigger, as if to swallow him up. In this state, his studies have also been affected. The results of the recent quiz are not satisfactory. Even the husband has talked to him several times, but It was useless, and the husband stopped talking later, only occasionally shaking his head when he looked at him.

Li Yuan felt that more and more things were pressing on him, making him breathless. Taking advantage of today's rest, he didn't want to go back to the village to face the Liu family, so he went to the street alone to relax.

Turning around the alley and walking into the main street, a familiar bright red figure suddenly came into my sight.

He took a closer look, only to find that Brother Yun was holding a piece of red cloth. The red cloth was gorgeous, so it was so conspicuous from a distance.

His face froze, red cloth... Villagers only buy red cloth when they get married.

Brother Yun is getting married? with who? With that Orion?

His eyes were tearing apart, it was because of him that he had come to this point, and in the end he was going to get married?

Anger engulfed his reason, he walked forward angrily and quickly, reaching out to grab Brother Yun's shoulder.
