Chapter 419: Did she force him?
Lin Mo nodded, then turned to look at Zhao, the wife of Old Song, who was standing beside him with a dazed look on her face.
"Zhao, who did you learn this embroidery skill from? Can you teach me?"
Then he told her that he wanted to hire her as an embroidery master to teach people embroidery.
Zhao was stunned.
She hesitated for a moment, "Well, I have to think about it."
Xu Xianyu was excited, "Zhao, don't worry about it. I won't treat you unfairly in terms of wages. Just help me teach them, okay?
I also want the girls here to have a skill to make a living so that they don’t have to live such a miserable life. Zhao, can you help me, please?”
Zhao looked embarrassed.
Xu Xianyu wanted to say something, but was stopped by the quick-eyed and quick-handed Lin Mo.
Lin Mo looked at Zhao and gave her a gentle smile:
"You can go back and think about it carefully. There is still time. We are not in a hurry!
Just reply to us when you have thought it over.
Don't worry, we won't force you to do anything.
If you don't want to be a master, that's fine, don't feel any psychological burden."
Zhao nodded thoughtfully and turned to leave.
After she walked away, Xu Xianyu looked at Lin Mo excitedly:
"Sister-in-law, why did you stop me just now?
Since Zhao can embroider such beautiful patterns, her embroidery skills must be very good and she can definitely teach others.
And if everyone could become as good as her, then our embroidery studio wouldn't have to worry about business at all!"
Lin Mo shook her head, "Didn't you see the embarrassment on Zhao's face?
She must have her own difficulties, Xiaoyu, you should respect others and not force her. She has to think about this matter carefully and make a decision on her own.
Xu Xianyu was confused. Was she forcing him?
It seems a little bit!
Xu Xianyu couldn't help but shook her head, "But doesn't she want to come and do embroidery work?"
"Being an embroiderer is different from being a master." Lin Mo said seriously:
“If she were to be your embroiderer and just do some ordinary embroidery, it wouldn’t have much of an impact on her.
But being a master means you have to teach everything you know.
There may be some difficulties involved. Give her some time and wait for her to think it through.
Anyway, it will take some time to build your embroidery workshop, so there is no rush."
After saying that, he went about his own business.
Xu Xianyu stood there thinking sadly for a while, then shook his head and walked away.
She still has a lot of things and regulations to finalize.
My sister-in-law is right. She has to be willing to do this.
When Zhao returned home, Old Song had not yet gone out to work.
He could tell at a glance that Zhao was worried.
"Wife, what happened? I see you look very worried.
If you really can't do it, don't go to the embroidery room.
I've already told you, just stay at home and take care of your health. You don't have to work. Can I support you and the child?"
Zhao shook her head. "I'm fine. You're too tired, and I want to help you share the burden."
At this time, Old Song walked towards her and helped her sit down aside:
"You're so worried, is it because the young lady and the others don't like your embroidery? This shouldn't be the case!"
He is not exaggerating about his wife's embroidery skills. Few people can match her.
The young lady and the others shouldn't look down on her.
If it weren't for the distance from Mocheng, his wife would have gone to pick up the embroidery work and come back to do it.
"No." Zhao frowned.
"Young Madam and the others want me to be their apprentice and teach the girls embroidery."
Old Song's eyes widened, and he said it was impossible for him to look down on it.
But being a master...
Old Song hesitated for a while before he spoke, "So what do you think?"
"I haven't thought about it yet!" Zhao was absent-minded.
She originally thought that she just had to embroider the work according to their requirements, and in this way, she could earn some money to supplement the family income.
But it would be different if she were the master.
She couldn't take the risk.
Lao Song reached out and grabbed her hand, his face serious, “No matter what decision you make, I support you.
Don't feel any pressure, I'm here to take care of this family."
Zhao nodded at him, "I know!"
Old Song comforted her with a few words, then stood up and went out to work with his hoe.
Zhao thought for a moment, then stood up, picked up the clothes she had changed last night, and prepared to go to the river to wash them.
When she arrived at the river, there were already many women washing clothes around her, both old and young.
She greeted a few familiar people and found a quiet place to wash her clothes.
The saying that where there are people there is bustle is absolutely true, and the riverside is particularly lively at this moment.
Zhao hadn't been paying attention at first, but when she heard them talking about the embroiderer, she couldn't help but listen.
"The Xu family is looking for an embroiderer the day after tomorrow. Are you going?"
"I don't necessarily want to go. My parents won't let me. They say I'll just start studying and they won't pay me. If I go, who will do the housework?"
"What if we learn well and make money? Miss Xu said this is a skill. If you learn well, you can earn a living with this skill wherever you go and never starve. And if we can make money on our own, we won't have to rely on others all the time, and life will be easier!"
"That's right. I don't care. I have to give it a try. The Xu family doesn't recruit many people, and the number of places is limited. If I miss it, I will definitely regret it. What if I learn well and make a lot of money myself? I can be my own boss. What can I do if I'm afraid of snakes and tigers? At worst, they can beat me up. When I come back with money, they will try to please me."
…
Zhao glanced at the little girls who were talking excitedly, then lowered her head and quickly washed her clothes!
Being an embroiderer is not that easy.
The little girls are too naive.
And on Lin Mo's side.
She turned to look at Xu Pinggui, "Are you saying that someone is building a house southeast of the village entrance, and it's a stranger?"
Xu Pinggui nodded. "That's right, but it's a bamboo house. Besides, many strangers have come here to do business in the past two days."
Lin Mo frowned, "Is there any problem with their business?"
"No, they are all very common things." Xu Pinggui shook his head:
"If there's a problem, it's the price; their prices are much lower than ours.
And because they sold it at a low price, they had several conflicts with our people."
Lin Mo frowned, her face turned cold, "Low price, this is the biggest problem.
Send someone to follow them and find out who they are.
I'm afraid these people are not here to do business and make money, but to cause trouble."
Xu Pinggui was stunned for a moment, nodded, and went out to order people to investigate.
Lin Mo sat in the study thinking about the other party's purpose.
No one can resist money. Even if it is obvious that there will be losses, they will still do it. No one will believe if you say there is no purpose.
But the most important thing now is that she needs to know who sent these people and what they want to do?
Now we can only say that the other party has bad intentions and is heading for Yuancheng.
The next day.
Before Xu Pinggui could find out the other party's background, the people who were doing business here started fighting with this group of people.
The cause was that Jia Qingshan had a deal snatched away by someone at a low price, and he was so angry that he kicked over the other party's stall.
This also angered the other party, and then a group of people rushed up and beat Jia Qingshan.
Most of the people doing business here are from Beijia Village.
As soon as they saw Jia Qingshan suffering a loss, they immediately rushed to help, so the brawl turned into a group fight.
Because these people deliberately sold at low prices and disrupted prices, their business has been particularly bleak in recent days. People in the Beijia Village area have been furious.
Therefore, the people in Beijia Village were particularly ruthless.
Before long, the Beijia Village relied on their large numbers to defeat the enemy.
At this time, the goods of both parties were scattered all over the ground.
Jia Qingshan spat a mouthful of blood-stained saliva to the side, with a look of sneer on his face:
"How dare you be so arrogant on our territory? I'll kill you!"
After saying that, he reached out and touched his swollen face, his expression becoming even more gloomy.
Li Song got up from the ground, his face full of anger, "Are you guys sick?
You sell your own products at high prices, but you don't allow us to sell them at low prices. Aren't you just trying to dominate the market?"
As soon as these words came out, the people on Li Song's side also spoke up.
"That's right, the business people here are running rampant and dominating the market. It's too much."
"They're so unscrupulous and wicked. Not only do they falsely inflate the prices, they also forbid us from selling at normal prices, forcing us to join them in defrauding the people. And when we disagree, they beat us up. Is there any justice in the world?"
…
As soon as these words were spoken, the onlookers began to accuse Jia Qingshan and the others of their wrongdoings.
"I was wondering why things here seemed more expensive, and it turns out I was right!"
"You sell at a high price yourself, and you don't allow others to sell at a normal price. You are more than just a little bit cruel."
"Oh my god, are the prices in this market so chaotic? I won't dare to come here to buy things in the future."
"Me too, I don't dare to come either!"
…
Jia Qingshan and others were anxious.
He pointed at the other person's nose and cursed angrily, "You fart!
How are the things here expensive? They're obviously cheaper than in Mocheng. Stop spreading rumors.
It's clear that you're deliberately sabotaging things by offering a low price. You did it on purpose, and these people are all hired by you."
Li Song shook his head with a mocking look on his face, "I'm not a fool, why should I sell it at a low price if I can't make any money?
Could you please be more clever in your method of throwing dirty water on others?"
Jia Qingshan was so angry that he wanted to vomit blood. He turned his head and looked at everyone:
"Don't listen to his nonsense, the prices we sell are real, and we don't make any profit at all.
They are here to cause trouble on purpose, so don't be fooled by them.
Really, I swear, the things we sell here only make a penny or two, and the prices are really lower than those in Mocheng!"
