"After we leave, you can't run out in the middle of the night. You have to stay with Youyou, okay?" Zhaocai worriedly reminded Xiaojin.

Xiao Jin forced an awkward smile.

This kind of thing cannot be controlled.

In order to ensure the safety of the skinny pig, Tian Youyou wrote a letter, put it in a cloth bag, and tied it to Zhaocai.

After sending the skinny pig away, Tian Youyou felt at ease to go to Qinzhou Prefecture with Yan Yao.

When they arrived at the Yan family's silk farm, the first batch of silk cocoons had just been picked.

"Young Shopkeeper, Shopkeeper Tian, ​​the quality of this batch of silk cocoons is very good." The manager who delivered the silk cocoons smiled so hard that his eyes became invisible.

He brought the cocoons to Tian Youyou and Yan Yao and explained them in detail.

"The shape is full, the cocoon surface is smooth and neat, the color is uniform and there are no stains, the weight is moderate, it is strong, and it has good light transmittance and elasticity."

He praised it generously, "I haven't seen such good cocoons in several years."

He looked at Tian Youyou with great admiration, "Manager Tian, ​​thanks to you for having the mulberry trees replanted last year, the mulberry leaves are growing well this year."

"The silkworms we raise eat these mulberry leaves and grow very well."

"I have arranged for workers to start making silk quilts."

"Recently, many people have come to our shop to order silk quilts."

"Young Shopkeeper, I think we can increase the number of silkworms we raise."

Yan Yao didn't say anything, but looked at Tian Youyou.

Tian Youyou nodded in anticipation of the two, "It needs to be increased, and it needs to be tripled."

"Three times?!" The manager was a little surprised. How could it increase so much at once?

Although many people order silk quilts, the price of silk quilts is high and sales will decrease after a period of time.

Tian Youyou said, "The workers who originally made silk fabrics will still make silk fabrics."

"Those who make silk quilts should continue to make silk quilts."

"I'll also recruit some more workers. I want to make silk scarves."

Silk scarves are soft and comfortable, have good moisture absorption, and can be used as decoration.

As long as it is marketed well, it will definitely become popular.

Unlike silk quilts, silk scarves can be dyed into various bright colors, or embroidered with various patterns to match clothes, so one person can buy many.

The manager didn't understand the word "scarf".

Yan Yao didn't understand either.

Tian Youyou didn't explain at the moment.

She found two workers to do as she said.

There are many styles of scarves, but Tian Youyou only had them made in the common square, triangular, and long shapes.

The squares are divided into large squares and small squares, and the long strips are also divided into large and small.

Tian Youyou called Yan Yao and the steward to show them the uses of the scarf.

Square silk scarves, small ones can be tied around the neck or tied to the hair for decoration, large ones can be used as shawls, and can also be made into headscarves,

The triangular silk scarf can also be worn around the neck or tied on the head as a headscarf.

Long silk scarves, small ones can be wrapped around the neck several times, and can also be made into belts or headbands, while large ones can be made into shawls or scarves.

It has many uses, and it also depends on how it is used to develop it.

When Yan Yao saw Tian Youyou tied a small long silk scarf around her neck, he was stunned.

Tian Youyou tied a knot on the small, long silk scarf, and two small ear-like rings decorated her neck. There were also two silk scarves hanging on her chest.

No matter how you look at it, it looks good.

Tian Youyou took off the small long silk scarf, took out a large long silk scarf and tied it around her waist.

Belts of this era were all narrow belts, but the one Tian Youyou tied was several times wider than before.

But strangely, tying it like this not only doesn't look awkward at all, but... makes the waist look even slimmer.

"How is it?" Tian Youyou asked with his arms spread out.

Yan Yao coughed lightly unnaturally, "Okay, it looks good."

It is indeed beautiful. Very beautiful.

Tian Youyou untied the ribbon around her waist and took out a triangular ribbon.

She tied a triangle ribbon in her hair.

In this era, many farm women could not afford silk flowers, so they would tie coarse cloth on their hair buns to decorate their hair.

But silk ribbons are different. They are brightly colored and can be embroidered with patterns, making them even more beautiful when worn in the hair.

After getting approval from Yan Yao and the steward, Tian Youyou put away all the scarves.

She asked the manager for patterns, selected some first-run scarf patterns, and made some simple modifications.

The manager recruited thirty workers to specialize in making scarves.

Silk scarves were already in the shop before silk quilts and silk fabrics were made.

Jinxiu Manor had already become famous for its silk quilts, and once the silk scarves were put on display, they immediately attracted the attention of the people.

Everyone's first reaction is curiosity. They wonder what the fabrics of various shapes and patterns are used for.

But they soon understood.

Because the female employees in the shop all wore scarves in various ways.

At first glance, everyone was attracted by the decorative scarves on their buns, and then they noticed that their waists looked more slender against the wide scarves.

The female waiters will also help the customers tie the ribbons so that they can visually see what they will look like with the ribbons on.

"Mom, tie this ribbon... your waist will look so good."

"It also looks good when tied around the neck."

"Mom, I want to buy these."

"Shopkeeper, I want these."

Just as Tian Youyou expected, every customer bought several scarves.

Some women have difficulty making choices and simply buy all the scarves.

After the first day, all the scarves were out of stock.

"Your Jinxiu Manor is a well-known silk shop in Qinzhou Prefecture, so why is it that you never have enough goods?"

"I tried to buy your silk quilt last year but failed to get it. I came early today but still failed to get it."

"That's right." Everyone echoed, "Can't you stock up more?"

The shopkeeper had no choice but to keep reassuring everyone, "Don't worry, there will be scarves every day in the future, and we will continue to come up with new designs, so you can come and have a look every day."

"In a few days, silk quilts and silk fabrics will be available."

There’s no stock left, and there’s nothing we can do except stay here.

"Okay, okay, then we'll come early tomorrow."

"Jinxiu Manor is a good business man. They want us to come every day."

"If the goods are good, it's okay to come every day. I just worry that the goods are not good."

There were not many silk cocoons in the first batch from Jinxiu Farm. Fortunately, Tian Youyou bought ten silkworm farms of different sizes last year, and now the first batch of silk cocoons have been picked.

She hadn't thought about opening a silk shop on her own for the time being, so she sold the cocoons directly to Jinxiu Zhuang.

The quality of her silk cocoons is the same as those from Jinxiu Zhuang, and the products made from them are no different.

There are enough silkworm cocoons, but what Jinxiu Zhuang lacks most is workers.

However, it is now the peak season for silkworm breeding and workers are hard to find, so it is still difficult to significantly increase the output of Jinxiu Zhuang.
