Chapter 149 What is the purpose
"You are still too young."

Xue Lan nodded her daughter's nose and said with a smile: "Do you think that others can only learn skills by watching you do it with their own eyes? But any embroiderer who is a bit smart can just buy a finished product and go back to study it. It is very easy to imitate the same style." .”

Gu Qingyou opened her mouth wide in surprise: "Is it so magical?"

But thinking about it carefully, when she was learning crochet, many patterns and techniques were figured out by herself with little knowledge, and sometimes she could even make inferences, as long as she changed the fixed stitches, she could weave different patterns and colors.

The ancients just had little knowledge, not low IQ. Just like what my mother said, those who have been embroidering women since childhood, which one is not ingenious?
It is not difficult for them to study finished product analysis techniques.

"Then I'll expand the number of workers to [-], prepare the goods first, and then quickly occupy the market when the supply is sufficient. How about you?"

Xue Lan didn't speak, but picked up a pen, and added a "0" after the number of workers she had previously recruited.

"Recruit 200 people as soon as we come up? Isn't that too much?"

Gu Qingyou touched the handwriting carefully, and said hesitantly: "When this thing is on the market, it's uncertain whether it will sell well or not, but the workers have to be paid monthly. With so many people, it's a fortune just to find a place to live. Not a small expense, will it be a bit too much?"

"It's only two hundred, why is it too much?"

Xue Lan took a sip of tea calmly, and began to settle accounts for her: "Since you want to make money, you must have a scale. Whether things sell well depends on the publicity, and we don't lack contacts."

Seeing that her daughter still couldn't let her go, she couldn't help but chuckled: "Let's not just focus on Shangjing. The Duke's Mansion has so many paving industries in other places, aren't they all ready-made sales channels? You just need to stock up in large quantities. , At that time, Shangjing will be the radiation point, and things will be shipped to various places, and the things that are popular in Shangjing will not be popular in the local area?"

Gu Qingyou suddenly realized that the prosperity of Shangjing is a well-deserved weathervane of the Jin Dynasty. Chinese people have the habit of following the trend since ancient times, and everything that comes out of Shangjing will definitely be sought after.

The sense of business seems to be showing signs of rising. Gu Qingyou eagerly picked up the proposal, went back and read it again, and even found a few deficiencies.

"In fact, in addition to mass goods, we can also work on private customization, such as felt dolls."

Small pets are popular among rich and noble families in the Jin Dynasty, and their love for pets is no less than that of modern excrement shovel officials. Pet to make a one-to-one doll, I believe most people are willing to pay.

Especially for those whose beloved pets have passed away, if they can recreate dolls according to their appearance in life, so that their thoughts can be placed and their feelings can be continued, so why not spend more money?
The couple wrote, wrote and drew, and added a lot of whimsical ideas into it. The plan gradually became fuller, and the feasibility undoubtedly increased a lot.

In order to train her daughter's abilities and to avoid suspicion, Xue Lan did not intend to intervene in whether it was site selection or job recruitment this time, and everything was done by Gu Qingyou herself.

There is pressure to be motivated. Thinking of the white money beckoning to him, Gu Qingyou was full of energy, and immediately designed a few job recruitment notices, which were posted overnight.

"Mom, I live here very well, and Shuang Jiang and the others take good care of me. You are also busy these days, so don't run back and forth."

Gu Qingyou made a cup of grapefruit tea for Xue Lan, and drank a cup of milk tea herself, while Shuang Jiang sat under the lamp, crocheting a cloak attentively according to the stitching method taught to her by Qingyou.

In the morning, Princess Changle mentioned that Princess Qin's birthday will be soon, and according to King Qin's temperament of doting on his wife, a grand banquet will be held to celebrate her birthday.

The princess has repeatedly offered to help, so she has to show her heart to some extent.

Prince Qin's mansion is rich and rich, so it would not be uncommon to send some gold, silver, pearls and emeralds to the concubine, so Gu Qingyou thought of sending a hand-crocheted shawl, which is not out of the ordinary, but more practical.

In fact, she still has a little bit of savings, the people who can appear at Qin Wangfei's birthday party must be either rich or expensive, and they are all noble ladies in the upper circles of Kyoto.

At that time, she will present the shawl in front of everyone, which will definitely attract everyone's attention. It will be a wave of advertisements invisibly, and worry about not being able to pay for it?
After thinking about it, she was not stingy with effort, and personally designed a few small things for Changle.

She sketched out a hood and scarf set, paired with a crocheted openwork belt.

Considering that Changle likes to ride horses, it would be bulky and unattractive to carry a water bladder when going out, so she drew a drawing and planned to have someone make a silver water cup with an inner tank, and the lid of the cup was made in the shape of a cartoon pig. Using the same crochet hook, knit her a cup cover in the same color as the hood scarf.

Seeing her getting involved, Xue Lan didn't want to disturb her, so she drank tea and quietly watched her finish her drawing before saying, "By the way, I came here today to think about something."

Gu Qingyou looked up from the desk: "What's the matter?"

"It's about your household registration."

Xue Lan put down the teacup in her hand, frowned slightly and said, "I originally wanted to recognize you as a righteous daughter, so I didn't think about the household registration, but now the situation has changed, you want to gain a foothold in Shangjing, you can't do without a household registration, Once the government pursues it, I won't be able to protect you."

"This matter, Princess Changle came over in the morning, and she has already done it for me."

As Gu Qingyou said, he got up, took out a household registration from the box and handed it to her, "Look, this is it."

Now it was Xue Lan's turn to be surprised: "Why did Princess Changle get these for you?"

Recently, they have received too much help from Prince Qin's mansion, not to mention the matter in the palace, but the tens of millions of taels sent by King Qin's order a few days ago has already made Xue Lan feel uneasy.

As the saying goes, you don’t get paid for nothing. Qin Wang and Song Lian respectively commanded the northern and southern armies, and they hardly had any contact at ordinary times, let alone friendship.

So even though Xue Lan paid off the debt with those silver taels, she was still hanging in her heart, only wanting to make money and pay back to King Qin as soon as possible.

In fact, at the beginning, Gu Qingyou also had these worries, but after getting in touch with Chang Le again, the doubts in her heart have been unknowingly dispelled.

"My daughter thinks that the King Qin's family may not be what we imagined. Just imagine that Song Lian's life is loyal and loyal, and all his care is in exchange for such a situation. How can King Qin not see through it? In my opinion, what they did is like a county. As the Lord said, there is sympathy for the death of a rabbit and the sorrow of a fox, and more importantly, it is to dispel the emperor's doubts."

Xue Lan has been worrying recently, and her mind couldn't keep up with her rhythm for a while: "You mean..."
