MTL - Rebirth In the College Entrance Examination: Making a Fortune with a Rough Man-Chapter 184 Treating Guests to Dinner
Chapter 184 184 Treating guests to dinner
I heard that the cloth elm twigs made of lotus silk is purely handmade, which takes time and effort. A piece of clothing requires more than 100,000 lotus stalks to spin.
The production process is exquisite, the process is cumbersome and meticulous, it is very rare and expensive.
This half piece of material may be able to exchange half a yard in the imperial capital.
Wang Xinfeng didn't know the material, but felt comfortable. Seeing Yuzhi's surprised expression, she tactfully remained silent.
Yu Zhi pushed the material back: "This material is too expensive, we can't have it, and I helped you make clothes, and even though you received the money, you also brought us a lot of customers. If you really count it, we should thank you." yes."
"However, we accept your wishes, and we are very grateful, but things are absolutely unacceptable."
Wang Xinfeng was curious, just a piece of cloth, is it really so expensive?
The old lady Chu didn’t understand either, no matter how expensive a piece of cloth is, can it be more expensive than gold?
It is really more expensive than gold.
Old lady Chu said: "Niece, it's just a piece of cloth. As long as you don't dislike a little affection from the children in the family, you can accept it well. We still have things to trouble you in the future."
"This time our two granddaughters are here, and I still want you to help make a few more bodies. These two children have to study even if they are on winter and summer vacations. It is not easy to come here."
"Thank you for coming here this time. Come and see our old couple. You can't take the children's heart away."
Yuzhi said helplessly: "Aunt Chu, we are really happy from the bottom of our hearts that you like the clothes we made. It's just that the value of this thing cannot be estimated. It is expensive because of its exquisite workmanship, its output is scarce, and it is priceless in the market. I really can't receive."
"The cloth here is almost as expensive as my house. Tell me, it's so expensive, I don't have the nerve to accept it."
Two old ladies exclaimed: "It's really so expensive?"
Yuzhi nodded, it's not expensive.
Guan Yueping believed her grandmother's words. This Aunt Yu is indeed a knowledgeable, open-minded and generous person.
She is pure and calm, sincere and gentle, with a peaceful atmosphere on her body, which makes people feel very comfortable.
This Grandma Wang is not a shallow-sighted person. Even though she knew the value of the fabric, she didn't feel greedy, but was simply shocked.
The people of Lao Sang's family are all pure and good.
"Aunt Yu, good things are only valuable if they are in the hands of people who understand them. This material is in our hands, it is just a piece of ordinary cloth, and we can't go out wearing it or sleep with it in our hands. , meaningless."
"But you are the one who understands it. Only in your hands can it display its due value and reflect the meaning of its existence, right?"
"A precious sword is given to a hero, good material, but don't you need a good designer? You can accept it with peace of mind, you are its best destination."
Wang Xinfeng let out a hey: "This girl can talk."
Guan Yueping is gentle and gentle, speaking slowly and comfortably.
It's just that this girl has a low face and blushed shyly.
Chu Zhenying smiled and said: "Don't praise this girl in front of her face, she is very thin-skinned."
Guan Yueping's little face turned even redder.
The two old ladies looked at each other and smiled silently.
Yuzhi also smiled and said: "Well, the material is not too small. I will make a piece of clothing for your sisters, grandma and mother. It's just summer and it's comfortable to wear."
"The material is plain and clean. It's good to design some simple styles, and it will be made quickly. I definitely can't accept it. It's too expensive."
Yuzhi was determined not to accept it. Knowing the value, Wang Xinfeng naturally couldn't nod, and echoed: "Yes, yes, yes, the friendship between our two families is friendship, and I took every penny of the money for making clothes."
"It's not a great kindness. You like the clothes we make and want to send something to express your feelings. We understand that you can just send some fruits and vegetables. Let's have fun together."
"I can't ask for such expensive materials, otherwise we would be nothing. Besides, my old man is still working, so let people know that I, the family member, have such a thick skin. How can he mess around?"
"Since the material has been delivered, you don't know how to make clothes, so I will do what my family Zhizhi said, and make a dress for each of you. The remaining scraps will be used as labor expenses, and we will keep them."
Wang Xinfeng made a decision, and the matter was settled like this.
But the three grandparents and grandchildren of the Guan family absolutely could not agree.
Originally, I came here to give gifts, so it’s fine if the gifts are not sent out, and how can I get a few clothes for nothing.
The old lady Chu saw that both parties were so persistent, and thought of a compromise: "How about this, we have half of each other, and the other half, the eldest niece and eldest sister can make clothes for our two granddaughters, and you can arrange the rest. Sample?"
Wang Xinfeng does not make the decision, it depends on Yuzhi to decide.
Yuzhi thought for a while and agreed: "That's fine, we have taken advantage of it, thank you Yueping Yueting, and please help me thank your mother when you go back. I like this gift very much."
"You just arrived today, so you can have dinner at my house tonight. Auntie and the professor are together, as a clean-up for the two little girls."
The old lady Chu’s cooking is not delicious, and the granddaughter rarely comes over. They are reluctant to wrong her granddaughter and plan to go to the state-run restaurant at night.
However, Lao Sang's family treats are also fine, everyone is so familiar, don't care about these small things.
"Okay, you two sisters are blessed, your Grandma Wang and Aunt Yu are very good at craftsmanship."
Yu Zhiqiao, who has assumed a false name, blushed a little.
Wang Xinfeng is not humble at all: "That is, my Zhizhi's craftsmanship, few people can match it, please come here early at night, I guarantee you will be satisfied."
Old lady Chu agreed, and the Guan sisters naturally would not refuse: "Then thank you Grandma Wang and Aunt Yu, we will come over on time in the evening."
The grandparents and grandchildren of the Guan family didn't stay here for long. The two sisters had just arrived and had to go back to wash after a tiring journey.
Wait until they left, Wang Xinfeng showed shock and disgust: "Just this thing, can it really be our house?"
Yuzhi smiled and nodded: "Of course it is true. There are very few people who know this craft, and it takes a lot of time and patience. Just this cloth requires at least dozens of tons of lotus stems, and the silk is drawn out one by one manually. It takes at least four months to spin it into thread and weave it into cloth."
"Do the math, just how much effort and cost are needed for those lotus stems? These are all money. The time and craftsmanship spent are all counted as money. Isn't it very expensive?"
Wang Xinfeng imagined it for a while, but he couldn't imagine how wide a pond could hold dozens of tons of lotus stalks.
Just planting lotus roots and cutting lotus stalks is a big project.
Based on this calculation, the old lady thinks it should be expensive.
"Then you can store the rest of the cloth yourself. It's fine to make skirts or clothes and pants. You can wear it yourself. This thing is comfortable to the touch and must be comfortable to wear."
It is the purpose of the old lady to leave good things to the daughter-in-law.
Yuzhi agreed with a smile, but she was planning in her heart to make a vest for each of the two children and another for Lan Tianqin.
The child is so independent that it makes people feel distressed. He just called him to have dinner together at night, and he will call later.
