Chapter 406: I hope the business will grow bigger
Shopkeeper Yao thought there was nothing wrong with what she said. Today she had finally satisfied her desire to be a landlord's wife. "Juexia, I have finally figured it out. When I earn enough money, I will buy some land.
Holding this deed in my hand, I feel at ease.
"Shopkeeper Yao, I'm telling you that today is the big market in Jinshui Town. We should hurry to the shop and earn some money."
"Yes, if you hadn't mentioned it, I would have forgotten about it. How did you arrange it? Will you come to my house for lunch?"
"You go ahead and do your work. I have to go to the shop to see how the work they have done is going. If it's early, I will go back to the village."
"Okay, then I won't be polite. My door is always open to you. Come whenever you want."
Zhang Juexia understood Manager Yao's sincerity, and she didn't hold back, simply saying, "Thank you!"
When Zhang Juexia arrived at her shop, she saw that the shopkeeper Li Xi and Ding Man were busy. She greeted them and went to see Aunt Wang.
When Aunt Wang saw Zhang Juexia, she knew that she was worried, so she came to check on the batch of goods they were rushing.
Without saying a word, she took Zhang Juexia to the room where they worked. After entering, she picked up a purse and handed it to Zhang Juexia, "Boss, look, this is the purse I made for the shopkeepers in Qingling City.
We made it very carefully, so even a tiny thread can’t be seen.”
While listening to Aunt Wang, Zhang Juexia looked at the purse carefully. The purse was indeed as Aunt Wang said, extremely exquisitely made.
The fabric was also the high-quality cloth she requested, and the embroidered patterns on it were also very beautiful, matched with the well-woven lace. In short, it looked beautiful no matter how you looked at it.
She picked up a few more at random and basically couldn't find any problems with them, so she felt relieved.
She still values the market in Qingling City. After all, there is a dock there. If these purses arrive in Qingling City, they will most likely take a big ship to a farther place in the Great Zhou Kingdom.
She stayed in the room for about half an hour before leaving with peace of mind.
Aunt Wang took Zhang Juexia to her room and said, "After we took on these jobs, they worked overtime and no one complained."
"Auntie Wang, I still say the same thing, don't be too tired.
At this time, you should arrange for Mrs. Li to buy more meat and vegetables so that everyone can eat and drink well.
At noon, they were forced to rest.
Also, if we are really short of manpower, we can hire more people.”
"Boss, I think so too. If the market in Qingling City opens up, I'm afraid our two embroidery workshops will really not be able to supply the market."
"So what does Aunt Wang mean?"
"Why don't we take advantage of this opportunity to recruit some more apprentices. When there are more orders, they will be almost finished as apprentices."
"Then I'll leave this matter to you, Aunt Wang."
"Boss, Cui'er is young and smarter than me. How about letting her do this?"
"Of course, Aunt Wang, you don't have to worry about people gossiping. As long as we get the job done, we can shut everyone up."
"I understand. Thank you, Master, for giving Cui'er this opportunity. I'll have someone clean up our south room this afternoon, and let the new apprentice learn embroidery there."
"Anyway, I've handed over the affairs of the workshop to you. If one day you feel that this place is not enough, just tell me and I'll buy the one next door."
Aunt Wang smiled and responded, "Boss, I'm looking forward to that day!
I hope our business will grow bigger and bigger!"
When Mrs. Li learned that Zhang Juexia had arrived, she had been waiting in the kitchen eagerly.
Last time she received a reward of two hundred coins, and she thought that when the boss came one day, she would definitely thank her properly.
She used all her skills to cook her best dishes, thinking that when Zhang Juexia came, she would let her taste them.
She waited and waited but didn't see anyone. She was worried that Zhang Juexia had left again. She made up her mind and ran to Aunt Wang's room in one breath.
"Manager Wang, are you there?"
"Mrs. Li, is there something wrong?"
"Master, you're still here, right? I made my best meal and wanted to let you try it."
Aunt Wang turned around and asked Zhang Juexia, "Master, Mrs. Li is so sincere, why don't you do us a favor and have dinner here before going home."
"good!"
When Mrs. Li heard the news, she returned to the kitchen with a smile.
Zhang Juexia had lunch at the handicraft workshop, and she felt Mrs. Li's sincerity and was really satisfied with the food.
When she had eaten and drunk her fill, wiped her mouth and went out, Mrs. Li was still smiling at her.
Zhang Juexia went to the shop again. Li Xi had finished his work and was drinking tea.
He quickly stood up and poured a cup of tea for Zhang Juexia. Zhang Juexia asked him about the shop, and Li Xi told him one by one, "Boss, there is nothing important here.
I just overheard something, and I wonder if the boss is interested in listening to it?"
"Is it related to our business?"
"It's a little bit related, but not much. Does the boss want to hear it?"
Zhang Juexia thought it was still early, so he might as well listen. "Go ahead!"
"When I went to Manfu Restaurant for a drink that day, I overheard that the Xiucai Embroidery Workshop had used the worst fabric to make a purse for Zhao Fumin from Qingling City.
Boss, should we inform Shopkeeper Zhao about this?"
"Not for now. I've heard from Shopkeeper Gao Xing that Zhao Fumin isn't a pushover either. Since Liu Hong is so bold, let him be!"
"But, boss, have you ever thought about the fact that the purses of Xiucai Embroidery Workshop are also made in our Jinshui Town? I'm afraid that it will affect the reputation of our embroidery workshop."
"That's not a problem. Our purses are all embroidered with the Midsummer logo. Anyone with a discerning eye can tell what's going on."
"Alas, Liu Hong is such a disaster. I wonder when God will take him away."
Zhang Juexia smiled, picked up the teacup and drank it all in one gulp. "It's getting late. I have to go back to the village. I'll trouble Manager Li with the shop matters."
"Boss, you're welcome!"
After leaving the town, Zhang Juexia asked Lin Yuan to drive the carriage as fast as possible.
Lin Yuan trembled with fear, "Madam, we are not in a hurry, so we dare not rush.
If the master knew, he would break my legs."
"If you don't tell me and I don't tell him, he won't know. Lin Yuan, don't be afraid. Feel it carefully and see if it's exciting."
Lin Yuan tightly grasped the reins in his hand, "Madam, it's too fast. I'm scared."
"Forget it, slow down!"
Lin Yuan was already sweating profusely, "Madam, I think this speed is the best.
Take your time and enjoy the scenery along the way."
"I'm just afraid of running into someone you don't like. It's better to have some excitement so you can get rid of them in one quick move."
Lin Yuan looked around in confusion, "Madam, why don't I see anyone here?"
