After lunch, Auntie stayed with us for a while before leaving. After all, there was still a big family at home. Auntie thanked me again and again before leaving!
After they left, my mother closed the door again.
"Mother, did you really sell the hand rope I made?" And so expensive!"
My mother: " Yes, it must be true. Otherwise, your aunt wouldn't have spent money to buy those colorful ropes for you children!”
(Someone asked why Aunt and Aunt! Because she felt that it was too awkward to call her aunt. *^_^*）
Me: "Mother, do you send the embroidery work to the place where the rope is collected?" Do you think I can sell it too?"
My mother: " She does accept Luo Zi. I've sold Luo Zi before, but I don't know if they accept your hand rope. If they do, where are they going to sell it?”
I said," Mother, I have nothing to do these few days. Didn't you say that you wanted to sell this curtain after it was embroidered? When you bring me along, ask. I won't make much, just a few. If I can't sell it, I'll come back and give it to the neighbors."”
"Alright, then you can make it up!" I'll finish embroidering this curtain in two days.”
......
two days later
"Little Jia, wake up quickly. Let's go out after breakfast.”My mother came into my room to wake me up.
"Are you going to sell embroidery today?"”
My mother: " Yes, it's getting late. You can go after you finish eating. If you're late, we'll have to eat lunch outside."”
Upon hearing this, I immediately sped up my actions and asked what time it was. It was already a quarter past nine.
After a hasty breakfast, I hurriedly went to pack up the embroidery and a few recently made hand ropes that I was quite satisfied with.
I said," Mother, take these new handkerchief embroidery techniques with you. There are four here. I think these two are for Miss Truth, these two are suitable for scholars, and these undergarments are also for you?"”
My mother: " I originally wanted to bring these few to take a look. I don't need you to remind me. Did you bring your hand ropes? Don't forget, if you forget to cry, I won't care about you!”
I smiled happily and said,"I brought it with me. I put it in your handkerchief!"”
Together with the curtain, handkerchief, dudou, purse, purse, and a few of my little ropes, it was a big bag.
We wrapped it in a bag and left.
Today, we are going to the western district. That shop is very close to the southern district. We walk west on the street not far from our house. It's the first shop in the western district. I heard from my mother that his family is an old brand and has branches in other provinces. Therefore, his family sells a lot of things. It can be said that they accept all kinds of embroidery. The price is high and low. The fine ones are definitely expensive, and the ordinary ones are at the general price. Although his family sells a lot and miscellaneous things, the price they give is very fair.
It took me more than half an hour to reach the place. My legs were straight from walking ()!
The shops on this street were obviously bigger and newer than the ones in the direction we came from.
"Shopkeeper Qian is not busy!" My mother brought me into a shop called the Precious Embroidery Pavilion and greeted a middle-aged woman sitting inside.
"Aiya! The wife of the Wang family! How many times have I told you to call me Shopkeeper Qian? Just call me Aunt Qian. I'm neighbors with your family. Why are you treating me like an outsider?”
"Aunt Qian! I'm just afraid that there will be customers in your shop. When there's no one, I always call you Aunt Qian!”The two of them chatted and laughed as they entered the place where customers could drink tea and rest.
Shopkeeper Qian was overjoyed when he saw my mother holding a big bag. My mother's embroidery skills were very good. Basically, they were all fine. How could he not be happy when there were so many of them?
"Aunt Qian, I embroidered these recently. I had something to do a while ago and didn't have time to come over. Take a look at them first. Moreover, my child and I have come up with a new embroidery method.”My mother said as she opened the bag.
"Is this your new embroidery technique?" Shopkeeper Qian took the embroidery in his hand and looked at it one by one with some doubt.
"Yes, my mother and I studied it when we were free at home. Look, this... this... And this was all embroidered with a new embroidery method.”My mother took out the embroidery and pointed it out to Shopkeeper Qian.
Shopkeeper Qian was a person who dealt with different kinds of embroidery every day. He knew what the objects were at a glance. However, no matter how much he had seen the world, he was still shocked by the few pieces of embroidery in front of him.
Shopkeeper Qian: " Lady Wang, are these all your newly developed embroidery techniques? This was too beautiful, as if it was real. It's not that I'm boasting, but we've been in this industry for 20 years, and I've never seen a better new product!
It seems that your embroidery method is mainly innovative on the thread. Moreover, the dense needlework that you embroidered is also different from the methods that we use most of the time. Your creativity is very bold. Not bad, not bad.”
My mother: " It's not as good as you say. However, this embroidery is really more difficult than our previous ordinary embroidery method. It also takes a lot of time. This new embroidery method takes several times more time than the previous one! Moreover, the slightest carelessness would ruin an embroidery.”
Shopkeeper Qian listened and carefully looked at the embroidery in his hand. Looking at the direction of the needle technique and the density of the thread, although it could not be completely destroyed by a wrong needle, it was also very difficult to mend it.
Upon seeing this, Shopkeeper Qian felt confident. This kind of fine quality was very difficult to find. If the price was right, this would be his exclusive sale now. He might be able to rise to a higher level in the embroidery industry! Even if there are people who follow the trend in the future, it won't affect our family's status.
Thinking of this, Shopkeeper Qian made up his mind to accept these things no matter how much they cost.
Shopkeeper Qian: " You're right, Lady Wang. I looked at it carefully just now. It's really too detailed. I really like it too. Why don't you leave all of these for me?" We can discuss the price!"
When my mother heard this, she didn't reply immediately. Instead, she said,"Don't be anxious, don't be anxious. Look at the hand rope my daughter made a few days ago. I didn't want to show it to you, but my daughter gave a few to my sister-in-law's children. A few days ago, they went to the streets and got a few rich people to buy them.”As he spoke, he found the ropes I had woven.
Shopkeeper Qian took it and looked at it. Aiya, it's so beautiful. Look at my old eyes. I thought you embroidered the ribbon. So it's a hand rope!
Hmm, the color scheme was nice and the weaving was novel. Not bad, not bad.”
My mother said proudly,"I want to make something for you to see. I just want to see how my daughter's craftsmanship is!"”
Shopkeeper Qian looked at the hand rope and then at the new embroidery. After thinking for a long time, he said,""This isn't the first day we've interacted with the Wang family's lady. Auntie really has her eyes on something. If you still sell these ordinary embroidery at the old price, this new embroidery…"
As he spoke, he looked again and said,"I'll give you 80 wen for this handkerchief, 300 wen for this undergarment, 150 wen for this purse, and 30 wen for this small purse. What do you think?" In the future, don't embroider those ordinary stitches. Embroider this new one. I want as many as you have. If it's a big one, we can talk about the price, okay?”
When my mother heard this, she thought to herself, This is several times higher than the previous ones!”
My mother didn't say anything immediately after seeing the price of the embroidery. She also asked if I wanted a hand rope.
I looked at the two of them with my heart in my throat. My first bucket of gold in this world must be successful!
Shopkeeper Qian looked at my mother and then at me, who was obediently waiting at the side, and smiled,""I want this bracelet too. It's so beautiful that I don't have to worry about selling it. However, I can't give such a high price to the nobles. Sometimes, those nobles buy things with tips!”
I also expect to sell them for 50 coins each. That's unrealistic. How much is a colored thread worth?
Shopkeeper Qian saw that I didn't show any disappointment before he continued,""Can I give you 10 coins for each of these?”
10 coins? I looked at my mother and was so happy that I was about to burst into laughter.
