Chapter 11 Taking Orders

After several collaborations, Fuyuan Embroidery Workshop, which was originally in the middle to upper range among embroidery workshops in Jiuyuan County, has shown signs of becoming the leader among embroidery workshops in Jiuyuan County.

All of this was thanks to Wang Xiuxiu's double-sided embroidered handkerchief.

These days, Fuyuan Embroidery Workshop has successfully entered the elite market of Jiuyuan County with its unique double-sided embroidered handkerchiefs.

Nowadays, women from prominent families in Jiuyuan County take pride in owning a double-sided embroidered handkerchief.

Those noblewomen who bought the embroidered handkerchiefs first would intentionally or unintentionally show them off at gatherings, attracting the attention of other women, followed by a barrage of compliments and envy.

Before long, double-sided embroidery became a new trend among the wealthy women of Jiuyuan County.

Of course, Fuyuan Embroidery Workshop's support was also indispensable behind the scenes.

Merchants are driven by profit. The reason why Fuyuan Embroidery Workshop was willing to give up the lion's share of the profits and choose to split the profits 50/50 with Wang Xiuxiu was because they saw the long-term potential of double-sided embroidery.

Today, double-sided embroidery has not only opened up a high-end market for Fuyuan Embroidery Workshop, but has also made the workshop famous in Jiuyuan County.

With this "stepping stone," Fuyuan Embroidery Shop could easily secure business from influential people.

However, the more successful Fuyuan Embroidery Shop became, the more envious other embroidery shops became.

Some embroidery shops with clever ideas even sent people to keep watch outside Fuyuan Embroidery Shop, trying to find the mysterious embroiderer who mastered the double-sided embroidery technique so they could recruit him into their own shops.

For over a month, Fuyuan Embroidery Workshop had been putting new products on the shelves several times, but the embroiderer never showed up.

For a time, the textile and embroidery industry in Jiuyuan County was filled with curiosity and speculation about this elusive embroiderer.

It was quite a coincidence that Wang Xiuxiu always went to the embroidery room dressed in ordinary clothes and was very young, so she looked like an ordinary village girl.

Those who were keeping watch never expected that this seemingly ordinary little girl was actually the embroiderer who had mastered the art of double-sided embroidery.

Wang Xiuxiu's ordinary appearance became her best cover.

When Wang Xiuxiu came to Fuyuan Embroidery Shop again, Manager Zheng not only settled the money for the embroidered handkerchief with her as usual, but also brought some special news.

A distinguished person asked the owner of Fuyuan Embroidery Shop to help Wang Xiuxiu embroider a wedding fan.

In fact, even if Steward Zheng hadn't mentioned it, Wang Xiuxiu had the same idea.

She initially chose to start an embroidered handkerchief business in order to open up the market.

Although embroidering handkerchiefs is profitable, it ultimately relies on volume, which is not her ultimate goal.

Spending all day embroidering flowers and plants may improve speed, but it does nothing to refine one's skills.

What Wang Xiuxiu really wants to do is create high-end embroidery products with private customization.

So Wang Xiuxiu gladly accepted the order and received a piece of precious silk fabric and many gold and silver threads from Manager Zheng.

Upon returning home, she immediately explained the situation to Chen Chunhua.

This means that he has taken on a big job and will earn a penny if he completes it.

Moreover, if you do well, there will be more opportunities like this in the future.

Upon hearing this, Chen Chunhua's eyes lit up immediately.

During this period, Wang Xiuxiu had been keeping the amount of money she gave to her family to around seventy coins. This time, however, she suddenly gave her thirty coins more, and even said that she would receive more often in the future. Chen Chunhua almost worshipped Wang Xiuxiu as a god of wealth.

She readily agreed to Wang Xiuxiu's request.

There are many intricacies involved in embroidering wedding fans. To be on the safe side, Wang Xiuxiu chose the traditional "Dragon and Phoenix Bringing Auspiciousness" design as the embroidery pattern.

Despite the tight schedule, Wang Xiuxiu did not sacrifice her health.

She only does a few hours of embroidery each day, and only during the day, resting early in the evening.

After nearly a month of work, the embroidery pattern was finally completed.

However, just as Wang Xiuxiu was about to send the embroidery to the embroidery workshop, a small incident occurred.

Hong Xiaodong heard about this from somewhere and insisted on opening the basket to take a look.

Although Chen Chunhua was also curious, she remembered that Wang Xiuxiu had specifically instructed her that the embroidered cloth was delicate and could not be exposed to sunlight.

Although she was also itching to try it, she suppressed her curiosity for the sake of the hard-earned money, stopped the person, and resolutely prevented Hong Xiaodong, that clumsy and lazy woman, from touching the basket.

When Wang Xiuxiu delivered the embroidery, Manager Zheng was so excited that he didn't even dare to take it with his hands, for fear that his thick skin would damage the exquisite piece.

Finally, I only dared to lift the cloth covering the basket and take a cautious peek.

Seeing this, Wang Xiuxiu took out the embroidery cloth herself and showed him both sides.

On the silk embroidery fabric, which was as thin as a cicada's wing, gold and silver threads intertwined to form gorgeous patterns, exuding an air of wealth and luxury amidst the shimmering light.

With its gold and silver threads, it might seem tacky to use in everyday life, but on this joyous occasion, it is a definite symbol of strength.

What's even more amazing is that although the patterns on both sides of the embroidered cloth are the same, the colors are completely different—it's double-sided embroidery!

Manager Zheng stared in disbelief, thinking to himself: Once this fan is released, it will surely cause a sensation!

He couldn't even imagine what kind of heights he would reach by taking advantage of this opportunity, having managed Fuyuan Embroidery Workshop for almost ten years!

The embroidered cloth needed to be framed by a skilled fan maker before it could be delivered, so Wang Xiuxiu took out a tael of silver from her own pocket and gave it to Chen Chunhua.

When Chen Chunhua saw the silver, her eyes widened, and she wished she could take a bite.

No wonder she was so excited; Wang Xiuxiu had given her so many surprises lately.

After putting on a show of motherly affection, Wang Xiuxiu was finally able to return to her room.

However, as soon as she entered the house, Wang Xiuxiu noticed something was amiss—her house had been ransacked.

In this house, only two people would sneak into her room.

Judging from these marks, it doesn't seem like Hong Xiaodong's style.

Hong Xiaodong wasn't as meticulous as Chen Chunhua; she wouldn't close the cabinet doors tightly.

Judging from the looks of it, Chen Chunhua must have searched the place thoroughly, even the kang hole!

Wang Xiuxiu sneered, secretly rejoicing.

Fortunately, she trusted no one and was cautious enough not to hide the money at home.

Otherwise, it would be the best outcome if Chen Chunhua took all the money.
