Only this green, not disappointing the spring

Fu Qiuyang went on a long trip a few days ago and brought back more than ten carts of woolen yarn.

The idea of ​​using wool to make yarn balls was proposed by Shangguan Qingyue. Fu Qiuyang, who was determined to expand and strengthen his business, left the capital with his caravan without saying a word.

This thing is only available in the border areas, and the locals are best at processing wool. Therefore, after buying a large amount of wool locally, he directly hired a group of people to spin it into wool yarn of varying thicknesses.

The clothes were transported back to the capital, where the women in the workshops crocheted winter warm clothing, including footwear, i.e. socks, scarves, hats, gloves and vests.

Before this, footwear crocheted with cotton thread was quickly sold out in the capital.

It was not easy to sell at first, because people had never seen such footwear. Shangguan Qingyue also came up with the idea, asking a carpenter to carve a similar mold according to the appearance of a human foot.

Put socks on them and place them in the most conspicuous place in the store, customers will be easily attracted to them, and the subsequent sales will become easier.

No matter how hard their opponents studied it, they could not find the solution. They could only watch this clothing store that appeared out of nowhere making a fortune.

Of course, business was not always smooth sailing. During this period, many people came to the store to cause trouble, but Fu Qiuyang always maintained a tough attitude and spent a lot of money to hire more than a dozen thugs to guard the shop for more than two months.

He was also a man of integrity and never mentioned his relationship with the Shangguan family from beginning to end, otherwise he wouldn't have gone to so much trouble.

Shangguan Chong, who had sent people to keep an eye on this place, was very satisfied. His future son-in-law was brave and willing to work hard, and he couldn't find any other faults except that he was too good-looking.

What, beauty is an advantage?

But forget it! It is not necessarily an advantage for women, let alone for men. Apart from attracting bees and butterflies and getting into trouble, he can't think of any benefits.

……

Wu Yuean came to the store to cause trouble and almost fell to the ground, but the unintentional words of the female shopkeeper reminded Shangguan Qingyue.

When opening a shop and doing business, not only the environment should be good and the food should be delicious, but the safety of the customers is also very important. At that time, she decided to cover the bluestone floor of the shop with carpet.

Only Shangpin Pavilion can do this.

So after sketching out the pattern of the carpet in detail, she rode her donkey Xiaohua to Shangpin Pavilion early in the morning.

As soon as he walked to the door of the store, he saw an old acquaintance he hadn't seen for a long time, "Shopkeeper Li! Long time no see, when did you come to the capital?"

Sitting at the counter at the door was the shopkeeper Li who had been doing business with Fu Qiuyang. If he hadn't taken a fancy to the embroidery made by her mother, she wouldn't have had such a deep friendship with Fu Qiuyang.

Therefore, Shangguan Qingyue felt very close to the shopkeeper who was nearly forty years old.

"Miss Qingyue, I haven't seen you for a few months. You seem to have grown taller and become more beautiful! I came here about a month ago, and from now on I will be the shopkeeper here.

The young master is busy in the backyard, are you here to see him?"

Shopkeeper Li came out quickly and respectfully invited the person into the store.

At this time, there were many customers in the store choosing clothes and materials. Shangguan Qingyue didn't say much, so she just nodded and followed the shopkeeper to the backyard.

Both of them have been busy with their own things these days and have not seen each other for more than a month.

Led by the shopkeeper into the study in the backyard, Shangguan Qingyue was stunned when he saw the man sitting at the desk. Then he walked around the man twice in surprise before saying in disbelief:

"Brother Fu, how did you become like this? If my eldest sister saw you, she would definitely not want you anymore!"

Raising his head from a pile of books, Fu Qiuyang rubbed his dry eyes hard and stroked his beard on his cheeks.

"Don't talk nonsense, little girl! Your elder sister didn't like my looks.

"There is no need to come to the temple, what do you want from me?"

Seeing that the two were chatting animatedly, Shopkeeper Li quietly left and planned to bring some tea and snacks over.

Shangguan Qingyue found a comfortable seat and sat down, rolling her eyes. She didn't rush to tell the purpose of her visit, but couldn't help but teasing:

"You are wrong. My eldest sister once told me that what attracted her most to you was your extraordinary face.

Now, if it weren’t for the exquisite and beautiful clothes you wear, you would be no different from a homeless person on the street.”

Fu Qiuyang took the teacup handed to him by Manager Li, took a sip to moisten his throat, and then he let out a long sigh and said:

"Ah, little girl, how can you know what kind of life I lived some time ago!

If I go to the border with my handsome face, I'm afraid I'll be robbed, not to mention the goods!"

"Now that you're back, why don't you clean up the mess? Be careful, I'll go back and complain to my elder sister, and let her see your true colors."

A piece of chestnut cake flew softly from the air and landed on the girl's skirt. Fu Qiuyang said unhappily:

"You are such a heartless little thing, it's a waste of my love for you!

Since I came back, I have been so busy that I don't have time to care about these trivial matters. Besides, if I pretend to be like this, I will no longer be disturbed by beautiful women. I don't know how peaceful it will be!

It's not like you can't change back, why are you in such a hurry? "

Although the other party said it lightly, it was not difficult to guess that the trip to the frontier must have been full of hardships. Shangguan Qingyue concealed the pity in her heart, took out a handkerchief to wipe her hands, and returned to the topic.

“It’s good that you know it in your heart.

I plan to lay carpets in the store, which can prevent customers from falling and also add a lot of fun to the store environment.”

She pulled a scroll out of her bag and handed it to him.

After cleaning the table, the scroll was slowly unfolded, and the picture revealed made Fu Qiuyang's eyes suddenly widen. If you don't look closely, you will think it is just a piece of moss.

"Is this the new crochet method you came up with? It looks really good. It can actually produce such a realistic effect!"

An idea suddenly flashed in his mind, and he slapped his thigh and said excitedly:

"Girl Xi, if you can think of a few more designs, this carpet will be a big hit once it's made!"

Seeing the man in front of him turn pale at the mention of money, Shangguan Qingyue couldn't help but laugh. He was really obsessed with money!

"That's no problem, but this moss pattern cannot be sold to the public. The things used in my Shuiyunjian must be unique!"

Fu Qiuyang agreed immediately and ordered three efficient female workers to be called. He left the study to Shangguan Qingyue and the other three and asked her to teach them how to cook on the spot.

In fact, the crocheting method is not difficult. You just need to crochet the cotton thread on the coarse linen according to the pattern and leave an appropriate length. Finally, use a comb to comb the cotton thread into a plush state.

Of course, there are still many details that need to be communicated with the embroiderers. However, the embroiderers in the shop are all experienced, so it is not difficult to learn.

Today, 40% of the shares of Shangpin Pavilion belong to Shangguan Qingyue. In addition, the embroiderers have signed indentures for more than ten years, so there is no need to be on guard anymore.

She taught the embroiderer all her knowledge on how to crochet a carpet and patiently guided her like a master craftsman.

After being ridiculed by Shangguan Qingyue, Fu Qiuyang was not as calm as he appeared. This girl would have to stay with him for at least another hour or two. What if Yun Xin came to look for someone?

So he quickly slipped back to his house in the capital and ordered people to boil water for him to bathe, wash his hair and face. After tossing and turning for more than an hour, he finally walked out of the bathroom after he had made himself look brand new from head to toe.

He took out the long-lost folding fan from his waist and fanned himself a few times with slightly clumsy movements. The weather was so cold that he couldn't help sneezing several times.

Tsk, if you want to stay handsome and elegant, you really have to pay a price...
