Chapter 911: Buying Silk
In the afternoon, Lin Yi still had no intention of leaving, and still took Taoyi to hang out.
Momoichi couldn't help but remind her: "Childe, when are we going to go back?" ”
Lin Yi smiled: "Tomorrow, let's go shopping again today while it's still dark." ”
The reason why Lin Yi walked around the city was to see if there were any delicious and interesting specialties in the city, and to bring them back as gifts.
However, after shopping for a day, Lin Yi was a little disappointed, in this city, except for the food and clothing used by the main people's livelihood, there are no other particularly interesting specialties, these things are available in Ninghe County, so Lin Yi didn't buy anything.
The next day, Lin Yi bought a carriage and drove the carriage back by Taoyi.
Whenever she passed through a city, Lin Yi would always stop to check out the local specialties, and when she arrived in Jianghuai City, the silk there attracted her.
The silk shops in Jianghuai City are different from other places, there are many of them, and there is a silk shop almost every two or three shops on the street.
Lin Yi was immediately attracted, and after looking at it one by one, he found that the silk here was cheaper than that of Ninghe County, but the overall price was still relatively expensive.
After Lin Yi looked at five or six houses, he picked out some beautiful silk materials in the last one.
Because Lin Yi bought a lot, the owner of the shop was very friendly to her and answered all questions.
Lin Yi asked: "Boss, is your material silk?" There is no doping in it. ”
The boss immediately patted his chest and said: "Childe, I don't know about other families, our family's silk, it is definitely silk, you touch this material, how slippery, our family's materials are all home-raised silkworms, spit silk, and then peel off the cocoon, and finally weave into silk materials." ”
Lin Yi smiled: "Boss, I believe you, I still want to take a look at your silkworms, I don't know if it's okay?" ”
The boss saw that although Lin Yi was very young, he was very generous, and when he heard her say that he wanted to see silkworms, he thought to himself, maybe this little boy came from a shop from other places to inspect the goods, so he immediately happily agreed: "Okay, Son, wait a minute, I'll take Childe to see it in person." ”
Lin Yi nodded, stood aside and waited, the boss and the guy next to him explained twice, and then took Lin Yi down: "Son, please." ”
The silkworm room in this shop is quite large, and before I even walked in, I heard the "rustling" sound of silkworms gnawing on mulberry leaves.
Lin Yi walked in, and saw that there were many dustpans placed inside layer by layer, which were filled with silkworms, and at this moment, chubby silkworms were gnawing on mulberry leaves.
Tao Yi suddenly saw so many chubby insects, and his face turned white with fright, but Lin Yi was inside, and he couldn't quit, he followed Lin Yi with a white face all the way, just hoping that Lin Yi would come out of it quickly.
It's a pity that Lin Yi didn't meet her wishes, so she simply stood next to a silkworm stand and asked, "Boss, the silk spit out by this silkworm is all white, and if you want to make it into a colored material, you need to dye it." ”
The boss nodded and said, "Indeed, I won't tell you, in our Jianghuai City, there are two big dyeing workshops, and our silk is going to be dyed over there." ”
The boss paused and said with a smile: "It's also a shame that the son came at the right time, if I had come earlier, I wouldn't have so many brightly colored materials here." ”
"Oh? Why? Lin Yi asked.
