Chapter 287 Drawings
Seeing Mrs. Qian's expression, Wang's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law curiously picked up the picture that Mrs. Qian had already read and started looking at it.

"Qibao, this picture of a kitten flapping a butterfly is really interesting! There is also a puppy gnawing on bones. The embroidery I have seen is all flowers and plants, and they are uniform. If these small animals are embroidered, they will be interesting in a different way. !" Zhang said.

"Yes! I thought these little animals were so cute when I saw them, but they look like the paintings on the wall of our barbecue restaurant!"

Qibao nodded and said: "Indeed, this is the Q version of a small animal. You see, everyone doesn't like this mouse, but if you embroider it according to the drawing method on the drawing, don't you think this little mouse is very lively and cute?"

"What does Q version mean?" Li asked.

Qibao smiled awkwardly and said: "It's nothing, it's just a name for this painting method. Don't worry about it. This is a picture of the twelve zodiac signs. It is most suitable to be made into a veil for women. When the time comes, the guests can choose according to their zodiac signs. If you buy it, it will definitely attract a lot of people.”

Mrs. Wang smiled and said: "My Qibao's head must have been enlightened by a Bodhisattva before he was reborn in his mother's womb. He has all kinds of ideas."

After flipping through the drawings, Mrs. Qian said: "Shen, you are right. I also admire Qibao's clever head. Look, these pictures of the Eight Immortals celebrating their birthdays, the pictures of the Seven Fairies Dancing, and the pictures of rebirth from the fire, these are all These are patterns I have never seen before. These can be used to make large pieces. If I can embroider these, I can say that I will become famous in the embroidery world!
However, if I want to embroider these, I don’t know how many colors of silk threads should be used, which is a bit complicated. "

Qibao said: "Aunt Ru, although it is indeed a bit complicated, as long as we embroider one pair, it will be breathtaking. Now I think it doesn't matter whether we have a shop or not. In the worst case, we will set up an embroidery workshop in Xujia Village. !”

Mrs. Qian thought for a while and said happily: "Well, this is a good idea. Once you have a reputation, you won't have to worry about not having customers. Then customers can come to your door to customize embroidery. I'm a little excited now thinking about it!"

Qibao nodded and said, "Aunt Ru, that's what I think. By then our Xujiacun will have another feature."

There are not many of these drawings yet. I will collect more drawings when the time comes, and the customers will be more selective. However, these drawings cannot be lost. This is the capital for us to make money, and for such large items, the asking price must not be low! "

Wang said: "If the price is too high, will anyone be willing to pay for it?"

Qibao smiled lightly and said: "Grandma, I plan to take the high-end route. Think about it, if everyone can afford it, how hard will it be for the little sisters in the village? They will definitely not be able to embroider, let alone these large items. , I couldn’t embroider it at all within a few months.”

Mrs. Qian said: "Qibao is right. We will focus on quality rather than quantity. But since we want to sell it at a high price, we must choose the best silk threads and embroidery cloths. I will pay for it."

Qibao said: "Aunt Ru, we may need to buy it ourselves in the early stage. Then we can let the guests choose to bring embroidered fabrics. It would be a pity if the guests don't like the embroidered fabric we choose!"

Mrs. Qian's eyes lit up and she said, "Okay! This is a really good idea, but we also need to buy some embroidery cloth for later use!"

Qibao said: "Well, if Aunt Ru pays, after excluding the cost, the remaining net profit will be divided according to the head."

Mrs. Qian shook her head and said: "No, if Qibao didn't have your drawings, we wouldn't be able to come up with such beautiful embroidery pictures. You have the greatest contribution, and you should have a share!"

Qibao said: "I just provided some drawings, and it didn't take much effort! It was originally intended to be a congratulatory gift to Aunt Ru."

Mrs. Wang grabbed Qibao and said, "Listen to your Aunt Ru! You can't give in vain!"

Mrs. Qian said: "Yes, Qibao, I treat you as one of my own, and I can't let you suffer. You not only provided us with drawings, but also gave us advice. From now on, you will be the little boss of our Xujiacun embroidery workshop. How is it?" Qibao was speechless. She didn't expect that things would turn out like this. How could she become the owner of an embroidery workshop?
Mrs. Wang agreed and said: "Okay, I think it's okay. Yueru, you will be the head of the embroidery workshop, and you will be responsible for guiding the girls in the village. Qibao is the boss. From now on, all costs in the embroidery workshop will be borne by us." Come out of the house!"

Qibao touched his nose. Unexpectedly, he was given the title of owner of an embroidery workshop again, and said: "Aunt Ru, should we discuss it with the little sisters in the village?"

Mrs. Qian said: "Okay, but I have to tell the adults in their family. They should also agree."

Qibao nodded. Every drawing she gave was not available here. If it can be embroidered on large pieces, like the picture of the Eight Immortals celebrating their birthdays, the Seven Fairies dancing, etc., the price will definitely not be low, but we still have to see how the finished product is. In this way, you can also price it specifically.

Mrs. Qian thought for a while and said, "After dinner, I will discuss it with the girls' families."

Wang said: "Okay, this is a great thing. The wives in the village will definitely agree."

Uncle Xu scratched his head when he heard this. He couldn't understand what this female worker was doing, but he only knew that Qibao had gained another fortune, so he also grinned happily.

Su Chenyu took the drawings and began to look through them one by one.

"Cousin, look, if these can be embroidered into finished products, you can really make money. They are so beautiful! Although I have seen countless embroidery products, none of them are so novel and beautiful!"

Jing Chen also agreed. Although the embroidery made by the embroiderers in the palace was nothing to say, it was too regular and just auspicious patterns such as flowers and birds. It seemed too ordinary and far inferior to the paintings on these drawings. The atmosphere is lively and the meaning is also very good.

Now that the matter had been agreed upon, after dinner, Mrs. Qian summoned the parents of the girls in the village.

In the Xu family's large courtyard, after Uncle Fu closed the door, someone couldn't help but asked: "Sister Yueru, what do you have to say?"

Mrs. Qian said with a smile: "Of course I have something good to tell you. After all, I have lived in Xujiacun for a few years and I am familiar with all the sisters and brothers, so I will tell you directly!"

So Mrs. Qian told everyone the plan of the matter as agreed.

When everyone heard this, they all started talking.

"Is this indeed a good thing? I heard that a good and large piece of embroidery is worth a lot of money!"

"Well, I heard from others that even a large screen for a wealthy family costs at least a few hundred to 1000 taels of silver!"

Mrs. Qian immediately waved her hand and said, "That's why I called everyone here for this matter. As long as you agree, I will start working on it tomorrow!"

"Sister Yueru, I agree, this is a good thing! This is my daughter's future, and as a mother, I applaud with both hands!" Hua'er Niang took the lead and said.
