The Pastoral Wife: Holding the Doll and becoming the richest man

Chapter 190 New Arrivals
Li Zhirui and Bai Huitang returned to the town, and now they want Ming Xiaoxiao to finish tidying up the store, and Li Zhirui also brought a lot of hangers and mannequins, until Ming Xiaoxiao finished the clothes and put them on one by one.

The previous sewing machine was not what I wanted, but I didn’t expect that when Li Zhirui went up the mountain, he accidentally discovered a kind of ore, the metal extracted from it, and the needles he made were very useful. What kind of metal is it?After all, she didn't specialize in this major, so she couldn't figure out some things.

But she thought that if this kind of metal is so suitable for sewing machine needles, it is estimated that the emperor also needs this kind of metal. After all, the weapons of the Xia Dynasty have not been reformed for a long time, so she told Li Zhirui to take this kind of ore. Show it to the emperor, and take those needles too.

So this time the two of them finished their work in the store, found an opportunity, and brought many stones in to meet the emperor, as well as those sewing machine needles and iron needles that had been made.

When the emperor saw these things, he didn't think about that at first, but was just curious about what these big stones were for?Until he saw that Li Zhirui took out two different needles.

"Are you going to show me?" The emperor didn't show any expression on his face, but just stared at Li Zhirui. Li Zhirui nodded. His purpose was obviously to show the emperor the characteristics created by this new type of metal.

Li Zhirui didn't dare to make weapons, and showed the emperor what happened, because in the Xia Dynasty, it was a capital offense to make weapons without permission, but now they are ordered to make sewing machines, so he can use needles to demonstrate.

Li Zhirui set up the two kinds of needles on the wooden board at the same time, and used another template to press from below, and saw that the needle made of iron was instantly crooked, while the needle made of that metal was still standing upright.

It wasn't until Bai Huitang and Li Zhirui pushed hard together that the needle was slightly bent and then broke.

The emperor sat up straight at once, then looked at the stones as if he had found a treasure, and said, "Where did you find these ores? Hurry up and enclose that place!"

Li Zhirui breathed a sigh of relief, he had finished the matter, and saw the emperor sent some orders, Li Zhirui also wanted to leave, but the emperor kept him.

"You have done this matter very well. I appreciate it very much. You can spare some for the use of sewing machines." After the emperor said this, Li Zhirui hurriedly kowtowed to thank him.

The emperor now feels very comfortable, because cooperating with Ming Xiaoxiao and Li Zhirui is much easier than cooperating with his old brothers, because these two people are people who know how to measure, and they don't have any special pursuit of fame and fortune.

This kind of measure makes him very comfortable. For example, in today's matter, if they want a bigger reward, they can use these metals to make knives to cover themselves up, but the couple didn't think about it. And my guards, because what they were doing was ordinary sewing needles, so they didn't pay much attention to it, so that when my family reported this item, they only thought that the next work would be better, and they didn't care about it. I didn't take it too seriously.

It's good for a person to know how to measure, but it's rare to find a person who is always thinking about you and knows how to measure. He met two at once, and it's not bad.

Let the emperor show some interest. Ming Xiaoxiao had drawn a lot of clothes patterns before, and he also asked his own guards to bring a few. He looked pretty good to himself, and the decals were also very fresh.

What satisfied the emperor most was that the guards had brought this new type of material and new-shaped clothes. The first batch was shown to him. After being inspected by his own father-in-law Chen, there was nothing wrong with the clothes, so he put them on by himself. I also feel that it fits better in the future.

Now I really want to go to the opening site. I heard that the girl hired a Taoist priest to calculate the opening date. It seems that it will be two days later. He can't wait to see Wenzhou Yan, who has been strategizing, looking unhappy.

The emperor looked at the current sky, it was still early, he said to Eunuch Chen: "how is the new era restaurant recently? I heard that since I cut off some of the girl's things, it seems that the income is not as good as before, although it is possible It’s true, but Wenzhou Yan’s things are not so easy to lose, go and see if he has saved some money that he shouldn’t keep?”

Eunuch Chen replied cautiously: "As ordered."

"By the way, what are my two sons doing? One is my eldest son, and the other is my second son. I want to see what the hell happened to the two of them in the ancient capital. Haven't seen much recently? Yes Didn’t you go to rebel with something again?”

When Eunuch Chen heard this, he broke into a cold sweat, and then called and said: "Your Majesty, what you said is really inaccurate. Your Highnesses should be usurping the throne, right?"

The emperor squinted his eyes and glanced at Eunuch Chen, then laughed and said: "I guess you are the only old bastard in the world, dare to make such a joke? Are you afraid that I will cut off your dog's head?"

"A slave who slaps his mouth deserves death!" Eunuch Chen hurriedly knelt down, but the emperor stopped him.

"You don't have to worry about this group of people not being able to rebel, and my sons are not stupid? Would you be willing to be taken advantage of by others?"

The emperor couldn't help laughing. He could guess Wen Zhouyan's thoughts nine out of ten, but he couldn't guess the thoughts of his two sons. Although their every move was under his control, but What the hell are they thinking?The emperor is still a little unsure, since his new crown prince has changed, it is impossible for him to have anything to do with his chair.

No matter how much the emperor loves his son, he will not hand over the country of the Xia Dynasty to a ghost. He has been observing the prince and the sixth son for a while. It was full of enthusiasm over there, and he prepared some interesting things for him, as if announcing to everyone that he, the emperor, is now in this small town to understand the people's sentiments.

The emperor was worried about his son, while Ming Xiaoxiao was counting on his son to give her some advice.

"You two have read so many books, can't you come up with a better-sounding, catchy shop name for your mother?" Ming Xiaoxiao hugged his two sons, not letting go. shake.

As for naming, Ming Xiaoxiao really doesn’t have a big idea. Although Li Haochen’s name was chosen by her at the beginning, what she wants to choose now is the name of a shop. She is still planning to develop into a time-honored brand. It must be Lang Lang. catchy, and have enough meaning.

Li Haochen and Wen Liming were deeply hurt by it. They wondered more than once why the husband gave them a holiday again, and they were very resentful. Why didn't daddy take them with him when he left?
They didn't know that Li Zhirui had been entangled with Ming Xiaoxiao for half the night last night, and Ming Xiaoxiao had fallen into a very excited state now, thinking all the time, what's the name of the shop?What couplets should be hung on the left and right?What should be the layout of the space?The little girl slept with them in the master bedroom last night, and couldn't help crying in the middle of the night.

While coaxing her daughter, Ming Xiaoxiao talked about some plans with her, and asked her if it was okay?Li Zhirui was trying to stay up all night with his wife and daughter. Finally, the little girl was coaxed by her mother, and Ming Xiaoxiao really lost her energy in the future, so she fell asleep.

Unexpectedly, these two boys had a sudden rest the next day, so they helped Ming Xiaoxiao think of the store name at home. The two of them had already written their names on several sheets of paper, but Ming Xiaoxiao typed them back.

The two little guys can't lift their spirits at all now.At that time, Liu Xinyu, who was coaxing the children, said: "It's not like they can't figure it out, they wrote a whole room, don't you agree with it?"

Ming Xiaoxiao was stunned for a moment, then saw that the papers in the room were full of ideas given to him by her two sons, and retracted her hand in embarrassment and said, "Isn't this a prudent thing? I want to do it It’s better, and our clothes are all newly designed, which should lead the trend of a generation, our brand must be catchy, this is not in a hurry, so I didn’t pay attention!”

The three children kept shaking their heads and sighed helplessly, that is to say, the little girl in Liu Xinyu's arms was still naive, otherwise, there would be one more person in the sighing group.

Embarrassed, Ming Xiaoxiao picked up a brush and began to scribble on the paper. As a person who traveled from a previous life, she was rejected by three children when she started her own business for the first time. She is also very embarrassing, okay?
I think she was ambitious to participate in poverty alleviation at the beginning, and wanted to build a better life style, but she ended up in this country, without any blessings at all. After training herself, she contributed all to the Great Xia Dynasty.

Ming Xiaoxiao raised his head suddenly, then picked up a piece of paper again, and solemnly wrote two words: Huaxia.

It is impossible for her to go back. Although her strength is very weak, Ming Xiaoxiao is very grateful to her country for her contribution and cultivation, so even though this world has nothing to do with the previous world, she still wants to , Use your own way to promote your country.

Although she may be here forever for the rest of her life, her natal family or her roots will always be there.

The children didn't know the meaning of these two words to Ming Xiaoxiao, but they also agreed with the two words Huaxia.

Ming Xiaoxiao was very emotional, and asked the two children to write these two characters in Xiaozhuan, as the trademark of their clothes.

Moreover, the family's plaque was still handed over to their eldest son, Li Haochen, who wrote the Huaxia Pavilion in his favorite handwriting.

Looking at the three words on the paper, she couldn't help crying and laughing. She finally felt that in this world, she had some sense of belonging. Li Zhirui gave her a sense of security before, and Li Haochen, Bai Huitang and her daughter gave her a sense of belonging. A sense of steadfastness, but I don’t know what’s going on, only these two words, let me have an expectation for this place, and also have a determination to fight.

The emperor was also very satisfied when he knew the name of the shop he invested in. The meaning of Huaxia is good!
Ming Xiaoxiao asked the guards to bring these three words to Li Zhirui, and let him make a plaque.At the same time, every mobile non-staple food vendor who came to wholesale goods received a new set of clothes and carried out publicity below the market.Bai Huitang was fortunate enough to be the second man to wear the Huaxia Brocade Robe, and went around the officialdom and some social occasions.

But Ming Xiaoxiao knows that they still have a vacancy for one of the most money-absorbing groups, that is the ladies and young ladies of the upper class.

After listening to Ming Xiaoxiao's scruples, the emperor smiled, and then waved his big hand to let the tenth princess who had just been coaxed back by his family to go out in the princess guard of honor and come to this small town.

After the publicity work was completed, Huaxia Pavilion officially opened.

Ming Xiaoxiao mainly focuses on winter clothes this time, and New Year's clothes, but there are also some spring clothes.

Sure enough, after the publicity was in place, there was no shortage of customers at all.The circle of ladies and the ladies who have not left the cabinet are the first group of people who come here. After they come in, they have a special room for picking clothes. If there are some rules or something bad, you can choose directly below, and Ming Xiaoxiao puts black colored glaze in each room.

In this era, mirrors are not popular yet, but colorless colored glaze can serve as some instrument mirrors. When you buy something, it is best to have someone wear it on your body to see the effect.The above are good people, all of whom are well-trained salesmen by Ming Xiaoxiao, and they explain their advances and retreats in detail, and each room has a calibration card specially used to test skin color and seasonal color.

As soon as you enter the door, you are full of professional style!

When Ming Xiaoxiao decided to sell this shop, firstly, his traffic flow was large enough, secondly, it was relatively close to the ladies circle and their western style, thirdly, there were three small buildings, and the third floor was The women came to try on clothes.

Half of the second floor is used for checkout, and the other half is men's fitting rooms. On the first floor, there is not only a counter, but also an exhibition area for clothes in the middle of the first floor. The mannequin carved by Li Zhirui is They're here row by row.

Not only that, Ming Xiaoxiao's children are hanging some seasonal clothes on the railing between the first floor and the second floor. Different materials and different divisions are arranged properly.

There is a public fitting room on the first floor, but considering safety issues, the fitting room is divided into two sides, the left side is for men, the right side is for women, and the women's side is all for women supplies, and, in cooperation with the bodyguard bureau, recruited a group of female bodyguards, specifically to increase the privacy and safety of women at the door of the fitting room.

Also on the third floor, female bodyguards guard the stairway, and men are not allowed to enter.

Ming smiled, Li Zhirui stood in the middle, greeted the guests and was busy with the reception of various characters. These characters were invited by the emperor. They are either rich or expensive, and they are also the main force of consumption. Don't they have to treat them well? !

"It opened today, why don't you post me next? I have to find out from other old friends that it turns out that the two of you opened such a bustling clothing store."

Ming Xiaoxiao expected that Wen Zhouyan would come back, but he didn't expect that he would appear in front of her like this.

Wenzhou Yanyan had obvious scars on his face, as if he had been slapped, and this person seemed to have lost a lot of weight.

"Shopkeeper Wen, where is it? Although we have cooperated before, we don't dare to climb high. There will be a cloth shop to open in the future, and I hope that Shopkeeper Wen will give us some advice." Although Ming Xiaoxiao was surprised, he still replied. .

Wen Zhouyan narrowed his eyes, and then said: "That's natural, I'm still willing to help you. It's just that in such a short time, have you mastered another secret recipe?"

Ming Xiaoxiao nodded very calmly, and said: "With your words, I feel more at ease. As for the fact that there is a new secret recipe in such a short period of time, I really didn't keep it with you deliberately. Constantly improving, you can’t always stay in the same place and stand still. So I always tell myself to innovate and do a good job of myself, which is what I am most willing to do at the beginning.”

"I'm not a famous lady, and I haven't been to a private school run by a female pedant, but I know one thing, that is, I don't forget my original intention."

Ming Xiao pointed out something, which made Wen Zhouyan change his face. Does this mean he is talking about himself?
