Chapter 284: Journey to Ancient Times 2



Shopkeeper Huang brought Hua Wanchi to the storeroom and asked, "What would you like to see, young master?"

Hua Wanchi: "Take me to see the handkerchief first. It's small and can be given as a gift."

Shopkeeper Huang nodded and said, "A handkerchief is not a big item, but there are good and bad ones. It is most suitable for girls to socialize with each other.

"Although you are not a woman, you can give it to the women in your family, or if you have a sweetheart, the handkerchief is also a good token of love."

"I see your manor has some embroiderers. I'm sure they have unique skills. Are their exquisite embroidery works also piled up in the warehouse?"

Shopkeeper Huang smiled and said, "To be honest, sir, the embroiderers all have their own talents, and their masterpieces are naturally kept as treasures or presented to dignitaries.

"Even if a painting occasionally leaks out, it will still be sold at a high price. However, the fine works will generally be stored in the warehouse, waiting for connoisseurs like you to choose."

Hua Wanchi thought about it and realized that the ancients always took their time to produce fine work. It was unknown how long it would take to embroider such an exquisite handicraft, so the production capacity must not be high.

Therefore, there is no need to worry about selling the existing finished products. Even the more ordinary ones are not affordable for ordinary people.

The better ones will be well kept in the warehouse. It is probably a special storage room for embroidery.

Hua Wanchi didn't have the idea that she had to be the best. Even if it was not so good, it was still the result of the hard work of the embroiderer stitch by stitch, and it was also very exquisite.

It’s worth it if you get it!

However, Hua Wanchi would not miss out on those real treasures. It would be nice to just appreciate them and let her see them.

In ancient times, productivity was not as developed as it is today, and the colors of fabrics were all derived from plant dyes.

The colors are naturally not that bright and vivid, but the low saturation has a sense of luxury, and some of the colors are actually not inferior to modern ones.

For example, blue, or red.

The blue shirt actually refers to a kind of indigo.

The complex colors are mixed together, not at all messy, but regular and orderly, showing a kind of complex and elegant beauty.

When Hua Wanchi saw the silk handkerchief that felt so smooth to the touch, she simply couldn't let it go. She couldn't imagine how happy she would be to wipe her mouth with it!

She grinned, "Boss, I want all of these!"

Shopkeeper Huang was startled, then looked at him strangely: "You want them all? So much? What do you need so much for?"

Hua Wanchi smiled, touched the handkerchief, and said nonsense: "I have many sisters in my family, and there are also many nieces. If I give one to each of them, won't this be enough?"

Shopkeeper Huang stood in awe and said, "Your family must be very large, so it would be unreasonable to buy less."

Actually, now that a boy came to give away money and asked for all these things, it did solve some of the urgent needs, but it only temporarily alleviated the current predicament.

Thinking of this, Manager Huang was still worried.

She really doesn't know how to continue this business!

Hua Wanchi was still not satisfied: "Manager Huang, could you take me to see the screen again?"

Shopkeeper Huang came back to his senses, cheered up and said with a smile: "Of course, sir, follow me."

After saying that, he took Hua Wanchi to another warehouse.

As soon as you open the door, screens of all sizes and various patterns come alive right before your eyes. It's so shocking!

Hua Wanchi clapped his hands and said, "Buy!"

What’s the point of stockpiling before traveling through time?

This is the joy of shopping!

Buying useful things is called satisfying life needs, while buying these useless things is called satisfying emotional values!

Shopkeeper Huang was stunned at once. She had never seen anyone so generous and straightforward.

To be honest, although Hua Wanchi's clothes were not bad, he was not wearing any fancy clothes after all. He naturally gave people the impression that he was a young master from a family that was not short of money but not too extravagant.

The sight of her spending so lavishly immediately raised her image in the shopkeeper's mind to an unfathomable level.

What family can withstand this!

Even for those wealthy families, their wealth is accumulated over time, and it is rare to see them spend such large sums of money.

While taking Hua Wanchi to see the ready-made clothes, Shopkeeper Huang had already started to think about whether he should win over Hua Wanchi.

This boy must be extraordinary, and maybe he can help her solve her current predicament.

Clothes have to be worn after all, so they are not kept away intentionally. At this time, the warehouse only contains newly made clothes that are about to be sold.

Shopkeeper Huang said: "Everyone's size is different. If you need it, I can make it to your measurements. You don't really need to buy the finished product."

Hua Wanchi blushed for a moment, feeling a little embarrassed. As for clothes, there was no need to buy them.

After all, she couldn’t wear it in real life, as ancient costumes were not popular in the 1980s!

After the reform and opening up, what we want is a fashionable and trendy look!

Hua Wanchi suddenly had an idea. What if she could use ancient fabrics to make modern dresses?

I can’t imagine how beautiful it is!

Pure new Chinese style, ancient craftsmanship version!

So, Hua Wanchi smiled and said, "Boss, I do have a few sets of clothes that I want you to make, but the styles of these clothes are a little different from the usual ones.

"It's a summer dress created by the sisters in the family and worn in the boudoir."

Shopkeeper Huang was curious: "Summer clothes? Sir, do you have any patterns? I'll see if I can make them."

Since he could ask her to do it, he shouldn't have to worry about the style being leaked, so Shopkeeper Huang didn't worry too much and directly asked for the drawings.

Hua Wanchi took out the pattern of a dress from her sleeve. The style was actually very simple, but it was still too open for ancient times.

But the ancients were not machines. They wore clothes in their own boudoirs instead of walking on the streets, so it was not their business to control how others wore them, no matter how cool their clothes were.

So when Shopkeeper Huang saw the design, he didn't show any surprise, but was a little amazed: "The design is not difficult, but it does look cool."

Hua Wanchi smiled and said, "Boss, I don't have any requirements for the pattern. My sisters at home are not convenient to come out, so I will tell you the size and I will come to pick it up when it is done."

Shopkeeper Huang asked, "How many pieces would you like to order, sir?"

"I'll take as much as you can do in half a month!"

Shopkeeper Huang took a deep breath in shock. This tone was really loud, but she had no doubt about the authenticity of the order.

After all, since she could spend a huge amount of money to buy so many embroidery products with just a wave of her hand, it is impossible for the other party to deceive her in this regard.

After calming down, Shopkeeper Huang smiled and said, "Don't worry, sir. Apart from silk, other materials are not a problem."

Hua Wanchi smiled cynically: "I just want to make silk."

Shopkeeper Huang was stunned for a moment, and looked at Hua Wanchi with a look full of confusion.

"But don't worry, shopkeeper. I have the silk."

After hearing this, Shopkeeper Huang felt relieved.

She said that this young man had a wealthy family and must have some fabric in stock.

However, she heard Hua Wanchi continue, "Unfortunately, I am a silk merchant. I have a batch of cloth on hand. I wonder if the shopkeeper is interested in buying it?"

The other side went through many twists and turns, and suddenly released a big surprise that stunned Manager Huang.
