I was a young master in ancient times

Chapter 9 Studying Fake Flowers

When dealing with her mother-in-law, Wei had a well-thought-out plan, went back to his yard, sat down and thought for a while, and felt that something was wrong.She called Xianglan to dress up again, and came to the cloth village in a small sedan chair.

At this time Xu Li was holding the freshly made velvet flower in his hand.This velvet flower looks like a peach blossom.Xu Li held the peach blossom in front of his eyes, turned it around, and looked at it carefully.Everyone in the room followed the velvet flower in Xu Li's hand and turned their eyes.

Ankang asked nervously, "Brother Xu, how about this flower?" He has gotten to know Xu Li these days, and Ankang is always called by Brother Xu.

Xu Li slapped his thigh and laughed loudly, "It's done!"

"What happened?" Wei Shi just opened the door and entered the room at this time.

"Mother, our flowers are ready." Like a pug wagging his tail, Ankang took the flowers from shopkeeper Xu and held them up to Wei Shi, "Mother, look, this is the peach blossom we made. Isn't it?" Pretty?" The tone was full of praise, praise me, praise me.

Before Wei Shi had time to look at the velvet flowers carefully, she was amused by Ankang's obedient appearance, and she stretched out a finger to poke Ankang's forehead affectionately, "You, you are used to playing tricks, but you are not in good shape." The mother and son laughed. After saying a few words, Wei Shi refocused on the velvet flower.This peach blossom made of wool is more pink than the real peach blossom.At first glance, it looks like a real flower.But if you look closely, the shape of the petals is not beautiful, and the interval between the petals is also a bit out of date.Wei Shi said, "At first glance, this flower can be fake, but if you look closely, the flaws are obvious." Wei Shi glanced at the embroiderers standing in the room and said, "It's not convenient for the embroiderers in the room to go out. Shopkeeper Xu can go and find some portraits for the embroiderers to figure out carefully."

Xu Li quickly said yes.

Wei Shi asked in a low voice, "Did they all sign the contract?"

"It's all a death contract."

Holding the flower in his hand, Wei's beautiful eyes swept over everyone in the room, "Everyone has worked hard these days. Since you have signed the contract and worked for me, I will not lose you. Xianglan, I will give you two taels Silver rewards everyone."

The embroiderer in the house hurriedly saluted and thanked Mrs. for the reward.

Wei Shi pulled Ankang and said, "Now that the study of flowers is finished, you have to go back to the academy to take classes. Don't let the master sue your father. If you are punished to kneel in the ancestral hall, neither mother nor your grandma can stop you."

"Understood." Ankang replied reluctantly, and was dragged out of the cloth village by his mother, and stuffed into the academy by the way.

Mr. Ma was teaching a class. When he caught sight of Ankang standing by the window, he pretended not to see him, and finished the class peacefully.Passing by Ankang, he quickly ordered, "Let Chen Ziche help you make up for the homework that has been missed in the past few days." After speaking, he waved his sleeves and walked away with splayed steps.

Ankang entered the classroom bored, and sat down on the seat with empty hands.

Qiu Yuan asked with concern, "Ankang, where have you been for the past two days? Why don't you go to see your flowers. Chen Ziche chose the little gray dog ​​away."

Ankang regained his energy immediately, and turned to look at Chen Ziche, "You chose the little gray dog? Is the little gray dog ​​tied up with a rope?"

"It's pierced. It was pierced by my grandma. I think the tail will fall off by the time we wean." Zhao Qin from the side leaned over, "Where has Ankang been these few days?"

"Hey, I'm off to something big."

"What's the big deal?" When Chen Ziche laughed, his peach blossom eyes curved into an arc, and his whole body was white and tender, and he was charming.Ankang deliberately teased him, "You call me brother, and I'll tell you."

Chen Ziche pursed his lips and snorted, "If you love to talk, don't talk, if you don't talk, you will fall down."

"Don't be a fool, just tell me." Qiu Yuan pushed him.

Ankang whispered, "I have spent the past few days researching. The little float we made last time, someone took a fancy to it. After inquiring about the cloth shop in my house, the shopkeeper of the cloth shop came to me. I gave Here’s an idea, I’ll just lock it up there and make tweeds for a few days.”

"What kind of flowers?" Chen Ziche blinked and asked, "Can flowers be made?"

"Fake flowers." Thinking of something, Ankang said in a low voice, "This matter must be kept secret. I will tell you, but don't tell others. It won't be long before my cloth shop will sell flowers."

The three nodded hurriedly.Said that he must keep this secret for Ankang.

Pang Youde fought with people from the back to the front, and accidentally pretended to tilt Ankang's table.Only then did Ankang remember that the fat man laughed at him.He stood up, looked at Pang Youde with a nasty smile, and called out in a drawn-out voice, "Pang—you—de—"

Pang Youde pursed his lips, as if suddenly remembering something, he screamed in his heart.

"Have you learned the essay? Have you practiced Goubalazi?" Ankang pressed every step of the way, and Pang Youde kept backing away, regretting in his heart as he retreated, why did he offend such an evil spirit.

"Ankang, don't bully Pang Youde. He has been studying hard recently." Wang Ming stood up in good time, still expressionless.Pang Youde hurriedly nodded in agreement, "Yes. I have studied hard, and Wang Ming can testify. I always ask him for advice."

Ankang didn't really want to bully him, but just to vent his anger. Now that Wang Ming had come out to testify for Pang Youde, he couldn't say anything more.

There are still three days before departure to the uncle's house.Xu Li did something big on this day.With his wealth and wealth, he set up another storefront and opened a flower shop called "Flowers Blooming Wealth".Just in time for the opening of the flower shop.Xu Li listened to what Ankang said.When Ankang was researching velvet flowers with his head covered, he found another person to figure out how to make light gauze into flowers.He has many old embroiderers who have been working for 30 years under his command. These people try day and night, and finally the emperor pays off, allowing them to try the results.After several revisions, now, embroiderers can already make three kinds of flowers.With three kinds of flowers and light yarns of different colors, the samples made can fill a room without repeating samples.

Thousands of firecrackers exploded at the door, and Xu Li, who was always smiling, almost grinned to the ears today.This day was different for Xu Li.Wei's family has a business in the state capital, and the three shops he manages in Yuyang County just buy goods from the state capital's business and sell them to the county.It can't really be said that Xu Li's business is good, it's just that he has a good foundation.Now, he has really opened a way for Wei's House, and opened up the business that Xu Li himself started.At this point, Chen Xuan was thrown off a lot.Both Chen Xuan and him were heartfelt domestic servants who accompanied the young lady to Yuyang County.He manages three shops for Miss, while Chen Xuan takes care of the remaining two shops, and the two have been secretly competing.

Xu Li accepted Chen Xuan's congratulatory gift calmly, cupped his hands and replied, "I also wish Brother Chen a prosperous business, and a prosperous business." Chen Xuan was bookish, and this was the comment that people who met him for the first time always liked to comment on him.Unlike Xu Li who was originally funded by the Wei family to study, Chen Xuan was originally an illiterate servant in the backyard of the Wei family.At that time, his grandmother was a domestic servant who had been with the old lady of the Wei family for 40 years.He took advantage of his grandma and joined Wei's Firm as a boy.This person is also a capable person. In just five years, he taught himself to read and climbed to the position of deputy shopkeeper of the branch.When the young lady got married, taking advantage of the limelight, Mao recommended himself to help the young lady manage the firm.At the beginning, five shops were managed by five people, and they had to report to the lady every month.Later, the lady simply laid off the other three people, leaving only the two of them in charge of the shop.In terms of age, this Chen Xuan is two years younger than him.

Chen Xuan took Hawking into the flower shop for a visit, and there were quite a few people picking fresh bouquets inside.Those waiting in line for the checkout are almost at the door.Chen Xuan observed calmly. In fact, he had inquired about it a long time ago, knowing that Xu Li had leaned on the young master.He glanced at the men he had brought.The subordinate was looking around anxiously.Chen Xuan thought to himself, if Xu Lin could get close to the young master, so could he, Chen Xuan.

For such a big deal as a flower shop, Xu Li naturally wanted to call Ankang.Ankang had already boasted to Haikou that his shop would sell flowers, but now that he heard the news, he took his three classmates and went straight to the flower shop to watch the excitement.

Qiu Yuan saw the long queue at the door at a glance, and couldn't help saying enviously, "Your family's business is really good."

"Are they all fresh? Our store is the first flower seller in Yuyang County. Maybe it's the first one in the state capital to sell fake flowers." Ankang was triumphant, but selling fake flowers feels a little strange , It seems to be selling fakes.

Huzi followed Ankang into the shop, casually looking at the bouquets in the shop.He has been studying flowers with the young master recently, and he has also done a lot of hands. If it is said that it can be made into a beautiful flower, the shape of the flower can still be made.Just when he was secretly happy that he was also a skilled person, a familiar voice came from beside him, "Tiger"

Turning his head after looking for the voice, "Cousin" Huzi naturally also saw Chen Xuan next to Zhao Xiaolin.His cousin's job is still his way.Although Huzi is young, he is just a servant.But he has been with Ankang for eight years, and the relationship between master and servant has always been good.Last year, Huzi said he wanted to find a job for his cousin, but the original Ankang agreed immediately.In the end, I arranged to work as a clerk in a shop owned by Chen Xuanguan.

Xu Li walked to Ankang, and saw that he was leading three teenagers wearing academy costumes, and said with a wink, "If the young master and the young masters are interested in something, tell the shop assistants, and I will write it down." on the account."

Ankang said familiarly, "We don't have a girl to give, what do we want these flowers for?" After thinking about it, there is no girl I like, but there is a respectful old lady at home. "You all pick a bunch and give it to your aunt at home. There is no woman who doesn't love flowers." After his grandmother's incident, the idea of ​​women's love for flowers has become more deeply ingrained in Ankang's mind.

Chen Xuan saluted Ankang respectfully, and introduced himself, "Young Master, my humble Chen Xuan. Manage the grocery store and grain store for Madam."

"Officer Chen, sorry for your disrespect." Ankang replied pretendingly.

Huzi pulled Zhao Xiaolin aside, and quickly glanced at Guanshi Chen who was talking to the young master, "Why are you here?"

Zhao Xiaolin replied with some unease, "Yesterday, Manager Chen suddenly promoted me and paid me half the money. Today, today, he brought me here. I, I don't know."

After a little thought, Huzi understood the truth.The fight between Manager Chen and shopkeeper Xu is their business. The young master has a big heart and loves to play, so he may not be willing to get involved in these matters.Besides, the young master is the only one in Anfu, and everything belongs to the young master, so the young master doesn't need to participate in the fight between the two.After figuring it out, Huzi said, "You can take it if I give it to you. Steward Chen supports you to show that you are doing well. Just continue to do things well in the future." His cousin is three years older than him, and he is Extremely honest, and willing to work hard. "The last time I went home, I heard from my mother that my aunt told you about a marriage. It's just Xiaotao from our village. Didn't you always like her?"

Zhao Xiaolin nodded vigorously, with a smile on his face, "We're engaged at the beginning of next month. After the Chinese New Year, Xiaotao will marry and go home."
