"It turns out that my sister-in-law owns the shop!"
Jue Wuyou muttered in his mouth and asked casually, "Won't you lose money by selling it so cheaply?"
"I heard that the prince and the fifth lady have recently developed a garment-making machine, which is much faster than manual labor."
"real or fake?"
"Of course it's true. Come and see the workmanship."
Several women were chattering.
Queen Jingjue also picked up the clothes and took a look. Although she was Queen Jingjue, so she was not required to do needlework or anything like that, but she still had some knowledge. Just kidding, the clothes she wore were made by the most exquisite embroiderers in Jingjue Kingdom. It is naturally clear that it is made.
But now, seeing the workmanship of these clothes, her eyes suddenly lit up.
Many onlookers were also amazed.
"Is this made by a garment-making machine? The workmanship is too fine! And it is extremely neat. Every stitch is almost the same. How is this done?"
"Not bad! And this sewing technique seems to be very special and stronger."
Although the embroiderers at this time were powerful, they were still done manually. As long as it was done manually, it was impossible to achieve the precision and consistency of a machine.
Everyone couldn't help but admire.
Someone couldn't help but said: "Shopkeeper, I heard that you are still recruiting apprentices? Is it right to learn how to use the garment-making machine?"
The female shopkeeper replied: "That's right! The garment factory under Jinyi Huafu is recruiting a large number of apprentices to learn how to use the garment-making machines. After completing the apprenticeship, you can either stay in the garment factory to work or open your own tailor shop."
"Is there such a good thing? Is the machine difficult?"
"It's not difficult, don't worry."
The female shopkeeper showed everyone a so-called garment-making machine, which looked like a table with strange metal objects on it.
The female shopkeeper introduced it to everyone and sat in front of the machine to demonstrate to everyone.
She stepped on it, and the needles under the metal object were quickly inserted. In the blink of an eye, the two pieces were perfectly spliced together by her. The workmanship was exactly the same as the clothes on sale, and it was extremely delicate.
Everyone couldn't help but admire it, and surrounded the clothing machine with eyes full of novelty.
Queen Jingjue also had an incredible look in her eyes.
The sewing speed is so fast, a seam can be spliced almost in the blink of an eye. At this speed, wouldn't a piece of clothing be completed in just a few or two?
You know, the average person needs to sew a piece of clothing at least a few times, and the workmanship requirements are high, even more than a dozen, but this machine in front of you can sew one piece in three or two, and the workmanship is better than that of the most skilled embroiderer. I don’t know how many there are, but you can imagine.
The women who were watching were all excited.
Queen Jingjue was no exception. She couldn't help but ask: "Shopkeeper, what's the name of this machine? Where can I buy it?"
The female shopkeeper said: "Sir, this machine is called a sewing machine. It was invented by the prince and the fifth lady. It should not be sold for the time being, but it should be sold soon. The princess will vigorously produce it. I believe it won't be long before it is available. However, Before that, everyone can learn to use it first.”
"As long as you learn how to do it, you can work in a clothing factory or open your own tailor shop in the future."
"..."
"I want to sign up as an apprentice, are there any requirements?"
"And I!"
The scene was noisy.
In other places, it may be rare for women to show up and work like this, but in the southwest, it is no longer unusual for women to stay at home.
Just kidding, the prince's wives are all running outside, busy.
What's more, it's too late for them to be happy about being able to make money to support their families.
Equality between men and women may still be an empty talk, but allowing these women to step out of the house and improve their status little by little is exactly what is happening in the southwest.
Queen Jingjue felt a little numb as she watched the whole journey.
Jue Wuyou's eyes shone brightly and he tsked: "I really didn't expect that this princess has only been gone for a few months, and the southwest has undergone such a big change, and there are so many weird things. My brother is simply He’s a talent.”
Queen Jingjue couldn't help but nod.
In the Western Region, she heard a lot of rumors about great talents.
Especially after the opening of the trade routes in the Western Regions, more and more merchants poured into the southwest, and things about the southwest were spread more and more widely. However, she had some doubts in her heart, and she always felt that the words were exaggerated.
How could someone be so powerful? Not only was he talented in literature, he was known as the most talented person in the world, but he was also so amazing in fighting. He forcibly opened the Hexi Corridor without any help. Nowadays, these strange and weird things are even more dazzling.
It made her feel unreal.
"Mom, let's go to the palace quickly!"
Jue Wuyou can't wait, because there are too many surprises along the way, and Nizi can't wait to ask her brother for a pocket watch.
However, Queen Jingjue still had some unfinished ideas and walked around the bustling streets of Guiling.
Various strange places, investment centers, stock exchanges, and Southwest Commercial Street.
This whole street is filled with all kinds of weird products from the Southwest.
Next to this street is Foreign Trade Street.
All businessmen from other places gathered here, including businessmen from the countries in the Western Regions, as well as Dali, Vientiane Kingdom, Siam, Wu Dynasty, etc., covering almost all the surrounding countries, with a wide variety of products.
Queen Mo Jingjue and Jue Wuyou were dumbfounded.
Because she didn't have these things when she left, she didn't expect that Guiling had already undergone earth-shaking changes in just a few months.
Although Guiling is not a new city, it is already better than a new city.
There are all kinds of people on the street, and it's hard to tell what kind of place you have come to. Everyone's face is filled with confidence, and their spirit is beyond imagination.
Queen Jingjue had an extremely unreal feeling, and was shocked inside.
Naturally, the talented man didn't know that his old sister and Queen Jingjue had arrived. At this moment, he was trying another thing in the backyard of the palace. The goblin was also joining in the fun. This girl had already given birth, but because the baby was still there, she just wanted to deal with it. Family matters.
Now I hold the baby in my arms and watch my husband playing with novel things.
At this time, a whirring voice suddenly came, "Brother, brother, where is my pocket watch?"
The owner of the voice was none other than Jue Wuyou. As soon as she rushed into the palace, she didn't even have time to visit the old lady, so she went straight to her brother.
But soon, she discovered that her brother was playing with a novelty. The thing had two wheels, one at the front and one at the front. However, it was narrower and thinner than the wheel of the carriage, and there were some strange metals on it. Linked.
I saw the old man kicking his legs, sitting on it and moving quickly.
"It's okay, although it's not that smooth, but it's still a bit fun."
The great talent was delighted.
Suddenly, a figure rushed over and grabbed the car's faucet, "Brother, give this to me too!"
