Lady of the Lord From the East
Chapter 158:
The carriage is parked not far away, so there is no need for an umbrella for such a short road, but it is well prepared.
In Sarina's surprised eyes, the sunshade effect is better than the rain protection effect, and the heavy umbrella has been in her hands for a while, and the weight of the hand is unexpected. For Mrs. Gui, who didn't mention it, it wasn't that she couldn't hold it, but that her hands would be sore after a long time, which was completely worthy of Wei Wei's "a little heavy".
But I have to say that such an umbrella can not only be used as a walking stick to explore the road, but also can block the sun and rain. The key is the good-looking umbrella, which is very popular with her. Seeing one, Salina can already think of countless colors and decorations. different styles.
As the hostess of the commercial capital, she also helped her husband manage the territory and **** her son. It is naturally impossible for Salina to have no business acumen. In fact, when she saw the uniforms of the servants in Sardinson Castle, what was in her mind. It started to turn. Of course, at that time, she just thought about whether this costume could be made into ready-to-wear, and then she rejected it. Those black and white uniforms, the maid's uniforms are fine, and the maid's uniforms are in the end and Pura. Di's traditional clothes are too different, and the exoticism is very strong. Not everyone likes them, but those who like it can find a tailor shop and it is not difficult to imitate it.
And this sunshade is relatively difficult to make. You need to find a blacksmith with good craftsmanship to build the umbrella stand. The fabric of the umbrella surface is also specially treated. Although it is still easy to be imitated, it is still profitable to sell it as a commodity.
So on the way back to the castle, Salina couldn't help but ask Wei Wei if she wanted to cooperate in a business of making and selling umbrellas.
In fact, it doesn't mean that she really likes such a small business, but before her daughter-in-law gets her hands on it, Salina always wants to consolidate the relationship between the two families, lest the daughter-in-law run away.
So if she can have a few cooperative businesses, it is like insurance for her.
Wei Wei didn't really care about a small business of umbrellas. She didn't plan to produce and sell it. Just like Salina herself thought, this thing is too easy to imitate. If you really do this business, I'm afraid that In a few days, knockoffs will appear.
However, since Salina was interested and said she could take full responsibility, she only needed to provide the umbrella design and production technology, so Wei Wei agreed.
But this is just a small head. The major cooperation projects are actually being drawn up, but that is what Felix and Adonis are going to discuss. Wei Wei never intervenes in this. She already has enough things to do. .
After returning to the castle, Sarina asked, Adonis and Dolores had come back before dark, and they went out on a date today and didn't know where they went. Anyway, they didn't meet this little couple all afternoon, But seeing the smile on Dolores' face is sweet and shy, and occasionally blushing when she meets Adonis, and when Adonis sees her like this, the polite and gentle smile will become real Smile, the adults on both sides knew that this date should be very successful.
This makes them even happier.
At the same time, the upper class people in the city of Oder are waiting for their city lord to send an invitation to the banquet.
Of course it wasn't an invitation to an engagement banquet. On those important days, the invitation post had already been sent out, and the invited people had even prepared congratulatory gifts, so these people were waiting for the welcome banquet to welcome the Sardinians.
Most of the nobles are a group that likes banquets. This is also something that can't be helped. For them, there are too few usual entertainment activities, especially the ladies. Those men can go out to hunt and drink when they are bored. Small wine or something, but they don't even have entertainment activities like shopping, because most of the nobles live in their own territory. Business is not so developed in some areas, so when you need to buy something, people are more accustomed to calling merchants to serve them.
If there is nothing else to do, wouldn't this lively banquet become everyone's heart?
Even in order to attend more banquets, many people often live in their own territory for a while. After the spring and autumn sowing, they leave the territory and live in the lively big cities. It was lively, but one of the places where nobles who had a place in the royal capital lived all the year round.
And after they received the invitation from the Aldridge family, they were surprised that Earl Aldridge was so powerful that he married his sister to the prince, and turned to marry the Williams family lady. The marriage between the two parties was What he brings is a more consolidated position - while looking forward to getting in touch with the Earl of Williams, after all, he is the richest Earl of Prady at present. Above, the people who seek cooperation are now all developed. They were originally regarded as the eastern part of the backcountry, but now they are prosperous everywhere, and the nobles whose territory is around Sardinson, except for a few unlucky people, other Everyone got rich.
And such an opportunity is also what the nobles of Oder City are looking forward to. Since these people choose to settle in Oder City, they naturally have some business here, otherwise the taxation of the territory alone will not be enough to support them here. living expenses.
Of course, most aristocratic women also look forward to the banquet, but the reason is different from that of the men. They are waiting for the Aldrich family because they are not able to hold a banquet during the time when the Sardinsons are visiting. The next move.
It's not easy to hold a banquet, because they are worried that the date under their leadership will collide with the date of the Aldrich's house. When the time comes, the guests will all go to the city owner's house and not come to the banquet they hold, and the scene will be embarrassing. He will be ridiculed for a long time, and although everyone knows that Sardinson is coming, if the Aldridge family does not hold a welcome banquet, or take the Earl of Williams to another banquet, he will make a public introduction to everyone. , As a noble, other nobles who are not familiar with Count Williams in etiquette cannot directly invite him to the banquet.
But it happened that the young Earl of the Aldridge family seemed to have forgotten this, and did not prepare a welcome banquet for them at all. Someone tried to invite Felix from him and it was unsuccessful. The news everyone received was that The lord of the city has been busy dating his fiancée recently, or he is taking Williams around in Oder City, and he is still going to those city management departments, as if he is familiar with the operation of the city.
And Felix is indeed familiar with the operation of the city. The cross-county cities of Sardinson and Thrott have now built a prototype-although only the architectural drawings include some noble districts, civilian districts and new towns within the city hall. For the small building in the central area, it is not known that it will take until the year of the monkey to complete the whole design of the city, but after the official completion of the city hall next year, the government trial operation team in Dingle can be moved there. The Williams family will also come out of the castle gang to live in the noble area, which is convenient for the renovation of the castle in the manor, and other houses in the noble area and the houses for the commoners will also be sold to the outside world. After the first phase of the project , they will probably migrate to this formation with a population of about 2,000 to 3,000 people. In this way, even if most of the areas have not been built, this new city is a veritable city.
And whether it's Wei Wei or Felix, he actually doesn't have much concept of city operation. When Felix used to be a knight in the capital, his status was not high enough to let him get in touch with them. He was dealing with departments such as the sheriff's city guards, so now he had the opportunity, he naturally seized the opportunity, and hoped that Adonis would take him to familiarize himself with the various city management departments of Oder City.
In fact, Wei Wei also wants to come, after all, she has never seen these before, but Dolores is not used to facing Sarina and Elina alone, and the closer the date of the engagement banquet is, the more Dolores will The more nervous she became, so she came to talk to Wei Wei every day, trying to distract herself a little and make herself less anxious, so when Wei Wei planned to go out with her husband, she would see Dolores and Caroline acting like a spoiled child With almost the same Xingyan offensive, and with two little ones to take care of, she could only silently swallow the plan to go out together.
After sending Felix away again, she turned her head and grabbed Dolores' hand, comforting: "It's just a formalistic engagement banquet. You are actually engaged, so you don't need to worry at all."
The so-called engagement banquet is just a celebratory banquet where the engaged men and women announce their good news to their relatives and friends and accept everyone's congratulations. In fact, they proposed marriage from Adonis. Dolores agreed to his proposal and put on the ring. After their elders negotiated the marriage, their marriage was already set and would not be changed unless there was an accident.
In the eyes of people of this era, engagement is almost equivalent to marriage. As long as a marriage contract is made, the woman is no longer a member of the original family, but a member of the husband's family. Even before the wedding ceremony, they can Live together openly and enjoy the married life.
Therefore, it is not uncommon for the bride to have a big belly at the wedding at this time, and everyone seems to be very happy about it. Some people even think that it is a very good thing for the bride to be pregnant and have a wedding. It is regarded as an omen for the prosperity of the family.
Of course, the Williams family does not have such a tradition, which can be seen from the fact that Felix and Wei Wei have kept their rules after their engagement, and Felix is very clear that Wei Wei is very conservative in terms of things and cannot Accepting such a custom, plus he was a little reluctant to make a deal with his sister, so when he negotiated with the Aldrich family on Dolores' marriage, he also mentioned this point, implicitly saying that before the official wedding, he couldn't. Make this kind of thing happen.
In this regard, neither Sarina nor Adonis raised any objections. They expressed that they respected the attitude of the woman's parents, so at the official wedding, they would not bring Dolores to Oder City and Adonis together. live.
