Section 0704 Luxury
Xiao Ling'er smiled sweetly: "Since the day I returned to Chang'an, there have been many people who have inquired about these things intentionally or unintentionally. My husband thought that he could ask me who could be the noblewoman, who was happy with poetry and painting at home, and didn't even bother to walk a few steps. They must know what new clothing is on the market, and they definitely don't know what a dock is. ”
"What else do you want to inquire about?"
"Among all the plans, the wharf, warehouse, and workshop area that have not been finalized by the husband have been decided."
After Xiao Ling'er finished speaking, Xie Xing'er added: "It seems that the sage has asked the corresponding officials, and the four major ports, nine small ports, and the addition of several canals mentioned by the husband are already known to everyone. ”
"Well, no one knows the truth about these harbors except me, and the saints only know a small part. It seems that in the past few days, I will get drunk several times again. ”
When it comes to being drunk, this will make Dugu Lanruo completely sober up.
Dugu Lanruo smiled and said to Liu Mu: "Today, for the first time, I let go of drinking, and then I found that Lang Jun couldn't drink enough." ”
"No, how much did you drink?"
After Liu Mu asked, Baoqin hurriedly came over to interrupt: "Lang Jun, the princess should rest early." Tomorrow is the first day of the new year, and there must be a family banquet at home, this is the first formal family banquet after moving here, and the princess will be very tired tomorrow. ”
Dugu Lanruo also smiled and motioned for Xie Xing'er to accompany Liu Mu back to the house.
Liu Mu also wanted to ask Dugu Lanruo how much she had drunk, but she was pulled away by Xie Xing'er.
In the past, Xie Xing'er couldn't even think of such a deadlift willow tree, but now it feels more like a family, and there is nothing to scruple about when there are no outsiders.
Inside the house, Dugu Lanruo covered her mouth and smiled.
Xiao Ling'er got up and saluted: "The concubine also went to rest." ”
"Go ahead." Dugu Lanruo waved her hand.
Baoqin then said: "Lang Jun is drunk after half a catty, let him know that the princess has drunk a catty and a half tonight, Lang Jun doesn't know what he will think?" ”
"That's right." Dugu Lan Ruoxin said that if Liu Mu felt that his alcohol consumption was not as good as his wife, would he feel uncomfortable. It seems that it is right to hold the qin to block, and when I talk about it tomorrow, I will say that I drank seven taels.
One catty of Datang is sixteen taels, so half a catty is eight taels, and seven taels is less than half a catty.
Baoqin took out a booklet that was not too thin and handed it to Dugu Lanruo: "Princess, this is written by Xiao Erling, a detailed record of the New Year's reward, there are ninety-seven people who need you to personally reward, and there are eleven of them, which is extremely generous." ”
Dugu Lanruo took the booklet and opened it to read.
The handwriting is clear and the format is clear, and it is obvious that Xiao Linger made a draft, classified and calculated it in detail and then re-transcribed.
"Princess, three of them are the chief stewards of the weaving workshop, Xiao Ling'er suggests that the reward will be increased."
"Well, her advice is good. The spinning mill here in Chang'an will be three squares in one, and then two of them will take the main weaver girl south to Cixi after the year, so they will be instructed to go down, and they are willing to go south to have another reward, and all the food, clothing, housing and transportation on Cixi will be arranged in the first year. ”
Baoqin nodded and took the small book to write it down.
On the other side, after Liu Mu returned to the house, he hesitated and asked a very dick question.
"So, wouldn't it be a pity to spend a lot of money to make a piece of clothing and throw it away after wearing it only a few times?"
That's right, this sentence is a dick silk mentality, in the previous life, as a code farmer, if a piece of clothing of tens of thousands of yuan was only worn a few times and thrown away, this kind of thing Liu Mu is estimated to go crazy.
"Yes!" Xie Xing'er gave Liu Mu an affirmative reply and explained: "Take me as an example, clothes are divided into five types, one is home clothes, one is home clothes, one is home clothes, one is a dress dress, and one is a banquet dress. ”
"Household clothes are the most commonly worn, and they are worn at least 300 days a year. Home clothes are an important thing in the family, such as getting together in each house during the New Year's Festival, and wearing banquet clothes and house clothes depending on the situation. If you get the chance to go out and play, change your outfit. If there is a night banquet in the Taiji Palace, it is definitely a set of clothes that are specially ordered long in advance. ”
Yanagi nodded in understanding.
Xie Xing'er said again: "This kind of extremely precious and unwashable is divided into extremely precious banquet clothes, banquet clothes, ceremonial dresses, and travel clothes from top to bottom. As far as the Xie family is concerned, only the level of banquet clothes is extremely precious. Dresses are washed, carefully stored, and then taken out when they are ready for use. ”
"I see."
Liu Mu understood that a wealthy family of the level of the Taiyuan Wang clan at the night banquet of the Taiji Hall did not have special banquet clothes, but wore old clothes, which was quite embarrassing for the top nobles.
"Husband, there are still two professions in Chang'an City. Since Chang'an has become more and more prosperous, these two professions have also risen. ”
"What is it?"
"Both of them are called Collectors. But there are differences, and there are similarities. What is the same is that they all have excellent skills in cleaning, repairing, and retouching colors. The difference is that one is to help large families clean and collect high-quality clothes, and the other is to buy old clothes, and then use them to repair and clean them and sell them to poor nobles. ”
Liu Mu didn't expect Datang to have this kind of profession.
Yanagi asked, "And what about the price?" ”
"Only once through, no obvious stains according to 70% to 90%. Because this does not need to be cleaned, the buyer can use it directly. But almost no one makes an easy move like this, so those who pass through three times will be harvested at the lowest of 40% and the highest of 60%. The actual selling price is added to 10% as a cleaning and other expenses. ”
After listening to Xie Xing'er, Liu Mu said with a smile: "Big nobles, middle nobles, and small nobles. ”
"That's right." Xie Xing'er told Liu Mu another thing related to Liu Mu, but Liu Mu didn't know. "Husband, the princess's long dress was only worn once. There were wealthy merchants in Chang'an who doubled the price, and the princess rewarded Jindeman, the princess of Silla, but Jindeman sold the long skirt and sold it for 500 yuan. ”
Liu Mu was taken aback and asked hurriedly, "What about the skirt now?" ”
"In the house of a silk merchant in Jiangnan, I heard a rumor that the merchant's wife and his sister almost broke their relationship. The merchant didn't give it to anyone, he thought that the skirt would be worth a thousand yuan in a few years, because it was the first cashmere dress in the Tang Dynasty. ”
"Humph!" Liu Mu sneered twice: "I'm afraid it's because few people can wear it, the four lines of the skirt are completely customized according to the princess's size, Jindeman is just thinner, and it is impossible to wear it if her body is completely long." If you want to change the skirt, ordinary weavers don't have that kind of craftsmanship. ”
Xie Xing'er didn't answer: "Husband, don't you ask about tomorrow." ”
"Tomorrow, what's going to happen?"
Liu Mu really doesn't understand, tomorrow is the first day of the Lunar New Year, and after waking up, he will set up a few tables, prepare some good dishes, and then eat dumplings.
What can happen?
