As he spoke, Chu Qinghe took out a ten-tael gold ingot from his pocket and placed it on the table next to him.
This black jade silkworm silk is made from black jade gilded ore mixed with special materials. It is as fine as silkworm silk and is impervious to swords and spears, as well as water and fire.
If it were handed directly to the tailor in this shop, he probably wouldn't even be able to cut it, let alone do anything else.
Fortunately, the wooden box itself contained some special powder that came with the system.
After adding water to these powders and soaking the black jade silkworm silk for half an hour, the black jade silkworm silk will become like ordinary fishing line.
Even the most ordinary knife can cut it apart.
However, this time is limited.
Only half an hour.
Once more than half an hour has passed, the black jade silkworm silk will be restored.
Therefore, if these craftsmen cannot complete these things within the required time, Chu Qinghe will have to use the medicinal powder again.
This is why Chu Qinghe asked a question beforehand.
The tailor shop owner, watching Chu Qinghe's actions, looked puzzled, but any businessman in this world with a brain knows to do more and ask less.
Therefore, although he had doubts, the tailor shop owner did not take the initiative to ask Chu Qinghe about his actions at this moment.
And so, only after the black jade silkworm silk that had just sunk to the bottom of the water gradually floated up, did Chu Qinghe finally scoop the now limp black jade silkworm silk out of the water and hand it to the tailor shop owner.
The tailor shop owner handed the dried black jade silkworm silk to the craftsmen so they could start working, and even took the initiative to help several craftsmen.
In contrast, Chu Qinghe put away the gold and sat quietly waiting.
My gaze occasionally drifted over these craftsmen.
at the same time.
Outside the tailor shop, in a restaurant not far away, a disciple of the Divine Water Palace couldn't help but ask, "Why hasn't that Young Master Chu come out yet?"
Upon hearing this person's question, the Shenshui Palace disciple beside him immediately said, "What? They've only been inside for a short time, and you're already thinking about it?"
"Hmph, as if you don't want to? You all look so eager, even a blind person could see that."
"There's nothing we can do. It's just that this young master Chu stays at home all day and never comes out. Before, we were always watching his maid, which was so boring."
The women's attire was already quite unique, and with all the teasing and joking around, they exuded a certain charm, drawing frequent glances from the other guests on the second floor.
Perhaps sensing the gazes of the others on the second floor, the Shenshui Palace disciple surnamed Sun suddenly frowned and looked at the people beside him, saying, "Have you forgotten the palace rules just because you're out and about? What nonsense are you spouting?"
Upon hearing these words from the disciple of the Divine Water Palace surnamed Sun, the group of people who had been joking and laughing just moments before instantly fell silent.
As if to change the subject, a disciple of the Divine Water Palace asked, "Senior Sister Sun, how much longer are we going to keep watch like this?"
Listening to his companion's words, the disciple of Shenshui Palace surnamed Sun pondered for a few moments and then shook his head, saying, "I don't know. We are currently in the western border region of the Great Ming Dynasty. Even if we send a message by carrier pigeon, it will probably take at least half a month for news from the palace to come back."
At this moment, a disciple of the Divine Water Palace spoke up: "After all, Yushui City is in the southwest, within the sphere of influence of the Yihua Palace. Do you really think the elders of the palace would travel thousands of miles to this southwest region just for a mere jade token?"
The disciple of Shenshui Palace surnamed Sun said confidently, "With the new palace rules in place, they will definitely come."
Faced with this, a disciple of the Divine Water Palace couldn't help but ask, "Senior Sister Sun, your status in the palace is not low. Do you know why the Palace Master suddenly required us to wear these identity jade tokens a year ago, and why we must request their return if they are lost?"
However, when asked by the Shenshui Palace disciple, the disciple surnamed Sun said calmly, "It's best not to inquire about some things."
However, in response to what the woman surnamed Sun said, someone next to her grabbed her arm and shook it gently, saying, "Others may not know us, but don't you know us, Senior Sister Sun? We definitely won't spread rumors, Senior Sister Sun, please tell us!"
The others nearby echoed in agreement.
You can't hit someone who's smiling. When faced with a woman's coquettishness, not to mention men, even women can't resist.
Therefore, the disciple of Shenshui Palace surnamed Sun seemed to have no way to deal with the group. After glancing around, he lowered his voice slightly and said, "You can talk, but if any of you dare to leak what you said today, you know what the consequences will be."
If one were intelligent, one would immediately suppress one's curiosity upon hearing the admonition from this disciple of the Divine Water Palace surnamed Sun.
However, these disciples of the Divine Water Palace were so engrossed in their work that they didn't consider anything else and continued to make promises while urging the disciple surnamed Sun to hurry up.
Seeing this, the Shenshui Palace disciple surnamed Sun glanced around and then lowered his voice, saying, "The story goes back to a year ago. Do you remember when the Palace Master was removed from the Hundred Flowers Ranking by Bai Xiaosheng a year ago?"
The people nearby nodded in agreement.
After all, such a momentous event moved the entire martial arts world.
Any disciple who left the Divine Water Palace during this year could have heard this news.
The disciple of Shenshui Palace surnamed Sun said, "A year ago, the Palace Master went into seclusion to cultivate, but suddenly suffered a qi deviation and was on the verge of death. At the critical moment, it was the old Palace Master who took action and saved the Palace Master. However, qi deviation itself is no small matter. Even though the old Palace Master was a Celestial Realm cultivator and healed the Palace Master, he was still left with aftereffects."
