"Did you really mix 12 colors?"
"more than."
Lu Ruyun's beautiful eyes were clear across the video chat box, "The 12 colors are just basic colors. I have selected 24 colors for red alone."
"I'll go~ It's awesome!"
Cheng Xi gave her two thumbs up in surprise.
It’s only been five days since I last taught you the dyeing process. Have you fully understood the knowledge inside and put it into action?
She is indeed the woman the system likes!
"The plants over there are very different from those here. It must be difficult to find something that can be used as a dye. Are you tired?"
The black and blue under this girl's eyes are visible to the naked eye, even through the screen.
Cheng Xi was amazed, it turns out that this is a career-oriented woman.
"It's true that I'm a little tired, but that's not important."
With such a big breakthrough in dyeing technology, what’s the point of being tired?
You must know that no one has been able to innovate the 7 colors in their plane for thousands of years. It only took her five days to turn 7 into 12. No matter how tired she was, she could still be energetic and refreshed.
Lu Ruyun changed from her usual cold expression, and the sense of success and satisfaction she felt after successfully coloring was something she had never experienced before.
"The natural dyeing plants mentioned in the book were really difficult to find here at first. It took me three days to find a substitute."
"Dyeing and Finishing Technology" records detailed information on natural plants on the earth, and also records derivative colors of 12 colors. Although there are certain differences in the information between the two planes, the principle is the same.
The hardest part of anything is getting started. Once you find the right direction, you will naturally gain something later.
"This is the first batch of fabrics in our shop. It's a thank you gift."
With a ding, a package pop-up window similar to a red envelope appeared in the friend's chat box.
Cheng Xi clicked Accept and took it out from the system storage compartment with great anticipation. Then there were dozens of piled up pieces of cloth in front of him.
she:"......"
There is no need to be so exaggerated.
"Isn't it a bit much?"
This is a piece of cloth that is invulnerable to water, fire, and bullets. Even a foot of it would be worth a thousand pieces of gold in the Great Yan Dynasty.
Is it really okay to just take out dozens of treasures?
"Not much, where is this?"
Lu Ruyun fully demonstrated the generosity of ancient capitalists, "It contains 12 basic colors and 24 red derivative colors that I mixed myself. I will give you the derivative colors of other colors in the future."
"..." Give it away?
If you lose, you will definitely be a capitalist.
Seeing that she was not joking, Cheng Xi chuckled and nodded generously, "Then I'll wait."
She singled out the 12 colors and put them back in the locker, leaving 24 different shades of red.
According to the name on earth, there are actually many kinds of red, and different items made of it have different names. For example, the color of lipstick and the color of cloth are completely different.
For example, lipsticks come in rotten tomato color, grapefruit color, etc., while the names of cloths are more ancient, such as Haitianxia, Yinzhu, Zhuzhan, Shuihuazhu, Chiti, Yanchi, Qiongju, Qiuhaitang... ...
Wait, something seems wrong?
Cheng Xi stared at the red eyebrows in thought, and after a moment realized where the sense of dissonance lay.
Most of these ancient names are named after plants on the earth, such as Begonia. Since the plants in the two planes are different, they must be understood differently.
"Junyun, have you named these reds?"
"Well - I haven't planned to release these 24 colors yet."
"Why?"
"Twelve colors are enough for the Lu family to gain a foothold in the cloth business. The rest should be done step by step."
"That's right. Things like trump cards should be something that people can't figure out."
"..." Is there any other way to say this?
Lu Ruyun was stunned for a moment, then laughed.
Cheng Xi picked out a few red colors that were not too outstanding and put them aside. She decided to give these to Shen Xingqi to make a few sets of clothes, and chatted with her friends for a while about the current situation.
Although the plant plane is dominated by plants with different uses, humans are still at the top of the food chain.
As long as there are humans, political power exists. The Lu family where Lu Ruyun lives is the richest man on the continent and has a very important position. Cloth is the foundation of the Lu family, and several other commodity shops also have their own interests.
In recent days, she has also used items from her family's industry to upgrade the system a few levels, but she has not yet unlocked the real store, and can only rely on online shops in the plant plane for sales.
Lu Ruyun didn't care much about this.
"My Lu family is now the richest man in Beichen. Even the royal family is a bit disrespectful. No one in the shop usually dares to cause trouble."
"So, it doesn't make much difference whether there is a real store or not."
"But I still want to work hard to upgrade. Mengmeng said its performance is not very good."
"Who is Mengmeng?"
"My system, it says this name is very flattering."
Lu Ruyun showed a confused expression, as if she didn't quite understand what was so endearing about these two words.
"..." Maybe this is the generation gap.
Cheng Xi thought of her 666 who had learned a whole series of customer service slang for a certain product, and her expression was hard to describe.
You guys, you guys, are working hard for performance.
"Is the online sales situation not good?"
"Mengmeng said that there are more buyers shopping but less placing orders. She doesn't seem to believe it. Why is that?"
"..." I wouldn't believe it if I hadn't tried it myself.
Cheng Xi thought about it for a moment and knew where the problem was. It would be fine if the customer was an old man in a plane mall, but it would be hard for someone who had just been bound to believe that there was fabric that could be invulnerable to water, fire, and bullets.
"In this case, I will introduce you to a few people who may be helpful."
"Is it troublesome? Will it conflict with your business?"
"No. Don't worry, we have no shortage of interstellar coins to earn here."
Cheng Xi couldn't help but sigh when she thought of Shen Xingluo's European emperor system. A normal plane merchant should put his own plane's specialties on the shelves and wait for someone to patronize them, saving up one interstellar coin for another.
As for him, he directly moved himself to another plane, and it was also an apocalyptic plane where there was a serious shortage of food and clothing!
It is impossible to lack business if there is a lack of business, even if there are zombies in the apocalypse.
Others just enabled it, but Shen Xingluo added it!
The two of them hung up the video after leaving some heroic words, but Cheng Xi was soon slapped in the face.
Just beat yourself up.
When Shen Xingluo came in, he saw that she was miserable and staring out with a lifeless look on her face.
"What's wrong?"
"My teammates are too stupid, I can't help them."
Cheng Xi brought up the system blue screen resentfully, pulled down the friend list with only four places, and recounted his heroic words.
