Even Black Bear, who was always slow to react, could tell that Lu Yujin was unhappy, which showed how bad someone looked. Black Bear ignored him and just called Tang Wanwan aside and asked her about entering Yonglin Pavilion.
, how have you considered it?
Tang Wanwan mentioned this matter on the way to the old man's house. Madam Chen first asked her what she meant. Tang Wanwan said that she wanted to go in and learn more. After all, Yonglin Pavilion was not accessible to ordinary people. Since
Being favored by the emperor means that they have their own uniqueness. Mrs. Chen said: "Since you have thought about it, then go ahead, mother supports you. Besides, if you go to Yonglin Pavilion, Xiaorou will be taken care of.
Okay. If Tang Wanwan and Xiaorou really learn something, it will be very beneficial to their family's future development.
Tang Wanwan felt that what her mother said made sense, so she took this matter to heart. Tang Wanwan wanted to learn from Gu Yunzhi how to manage people and how to do business, and she had no foundation here.
, Doing business depends on personal connections. No matter how smart and powerful you are, if no one supports you, you will always be controlled by others over time. Of course, it will be different when you have connections, and everything you do will be smoother. If
If someone knows your true identity and throws a stumbling block in your way, it might cause you to capsize in the gutter.
Tang Wanwan didn't have much experience with these complicated business concepts in Jinluban before. Not long after she started, something happened. Then when she came here, everything had to start again.
Tang Wanwan said to Black Bear, "I've thought about it. I can learn from the master, but please don't have too high hopes. I'm afraid I won't do well."
"Ah Wan, you are so smart, how can there be anything you can't do badly? Don't worry, my young master will give you guidance. When you learn how to do it, you will know how good we are to you."
"Then thank you for taking care of La. I may cause you a lot of trouble in the future."
The black bear couldn't help scratching his head and said: "As long as you make more delicious food for us to eat in the future, everything will be fine."
"It's just a matter of words." Both of them were happy. Black Bear was especially happy because he could see Tang Wanwan every day. The Gu family was too deserted, and Tang Wanwan had a very good personality and was very popular.
Well, the key point is that Gu Xinyu and Gu Mingyuan are good friends. Originally, because of Mrs. Gu's incident, the atmosphere at home was a bit low. Although Gu Mingyuan knew that his mother had done something wrong, he would feel uncomfortable if it ended up like that.
Gu Xinwen lost her temper for no reason at first, and even deliberately scalded a maid's hand with boiling water because of the bone soup issue, just because she neglected her. After Gu Yunzhi found out about this, he directly killed her
He will be under house arrest for a week, and if he does not repent, he will continue to be under house arrest.
Gu Xinwen was always swearing and making a lot of noise at first, but later even the servants in the family stopped taking her seriously, and she could no longer make trouble.
"Then I'll go back first and I'll pick you up early tomorrow morning."
"No, I will go by myself. The weather is very cold, so you should sleep more at home."
Seeing that Tang Wanwan insisted on going by herself, Black Bear stopped insisting and said, "Then it's settled."
After dinner, Lu Yujin and Tang Wei went to the room to rest. They seemed to want to talk about something, so they both went back to the room. Here, Tang Wanwan was preparing to make a down jacket for Lu Yujin. Tang Wanwan drew it in advance.
After finishing the pattern, Mrs. Chen cut the material, and Tan Ling was her assistant. Tan Song and Tang Xiaoyi were there to help with the goose feathers. They had never seen what a down jacket was, so they were very curious to see how they made it.
Tang Wanwan briefly explained the basics of making down jackets. Cut the clothes, make a sample, and stuff the goose feathers inside before sealing the stitches. If it is made in one piece, you can stuff the goose feathers first.
Go in, and then divide it into several parts, and the goose feathers in each part should be even.
The hair used to make down jackets can only be the short form of down under the big hair, which is goose down. These goose downs need to be extracted in advance. This task was done by Tan Song who was watching the excitement. Tang Xiaoyi was playing on the side and occasionally helped, but it was not really a help.
.
The down jacket needs to be stuffed with goose down and double-layered. This change is not difficult for Mrs. Chen. After trying it a few times, she knows how to operate it. Although this dress is different from the clothes they make, the rules for making clothes are similar.
While Mrs. Chen was doing it, Tang Wanwan was watching. If anything was wrong, the mother and daughter would discuss it.
It took two hours to make a brand new down jacket based on Lu Yujin's body shape. It was pure black and had a little waist. I also made a down vest based on his body shape. This vest can
Wear it in a warm room.
"Tsk, tsk, this is a down jacket. It's so warm." When Tan Ling saw that the clothes were ready, she couldn't help but try it on. Although the clothes were much bigger, she could clearly feel the material and the feel of the clothes.
There is a level of comfort and warmth.
"Ah Wan, this dress is so beautiful. Is there a women's version for us to wear? I want it too. If we make it, it will definitely sell well."
Tang Wanwan just smiled and said: "Don't worry, we all have it. And when we wear it out, it will be a living advertisement. If there is an order, we can start it. When the time comes, we will call Sister Yinhua."
"That's great."
Thanks to Uncle Wang's diligence, he actually collected all these goose and duck feathers. Tang Wanwan roughly estimated that the amount of goose down used for a down jacket is less than a pound, and a vest and vest only need a few taels.
Less than half a pound of velvet. Of course, if you want to be warmer, you can make more goose down, but you must also ensure that the style of the clothes is good-looking. Too much velvet will make the clothes bulge.
"But Ah Wan, when did our carpentry shop open? It hasn't even opened yet, but already many people have come to inquire about it."
"Let's recruit more people. If you spread the news, you will get 20 taels of silver per month. If you do well, you will get a share. Those who sign up will be interviewed in one day. After passing the interview, we will wait until everything is ready.
Let’s choose an auspicious day to officially open the business.”
Tan Ling's eyes widened when she heard Tang Wanwan's eloquent words, and she hurriedly sighed: "My grandfather still has the vision, you seem to know everything. Compared with you, we brothers and sisters are so ashamed."
"Everyone has their own advantages and disadvantages. Each of us comes into this world with his own experiences. Sister Ling, don't belittle yourself. You are really indispensable in our carpentry shop and at home."
"Isn't that right? Thanks to Tan Ling and Tan Song, they have done so much for me these days. You are like a monkey, busy all day long." If Tang Wanwan went to Yonglin Pavilion,
I'm afraid it will be even busier.
Therefore, the positioning of the carpenter's shop must be correct, focusing on only a few large items, and only complicated ones will be handled by her herself. Tan Ling and Tan Song thought Tang Wanwan's idea was very good, and discussed the details, and everyone began to wash up and rest.
