"Haha, who says women are inferior to men? Wen Wan is the student I picked for twenty years. Let me tell you, all of your students combined are not as good as me, a female student. If you don't believe it, ten years from now , let¡¯s take a look at today¡¯s bet again,¡± Song Luoyang said with a smile.
"Oh, I want to see what Princess Wen Wan has that can make you boast about such a beautiful seaport." Jiang Mingshi said with great interest.
"Brother Song, we are not outsiders. Tell me, what is so special about Princess Wenwan?" Fang Xu is very cautious, but today.
"Disdain for etiquette, yet able to submit to it. Full of talent and learning, yet able to absorb more knowledge with an open mind. Don't envy fame or fortune. Facing an unfair fate, despite enduring so many hardships, you can still maintain your innocence. How many of your disciples can do this?" After hearing this, several people thought about it carefully and realized that it was like that.
"But she is a woman after all." Yu Jing said disapprovingly.
"Let me tell you, my disciple is actually soft on the outside and strong on the inside, round on the outside and square on the inside. As long as she wants to do it, she can definitely do it. What about women, they can still be famous for generations." Song Luoyang said without caring at all. Said. Several people were speechless.
"No, there must be some other reason, otherwise, you wouldn't admire her so much. Tell me, which one won you over in the first place? And it also won you your heart. There is no one in the world who can use this sentence , is it possible that you are an expert at the top of this profession, but you are still showing off in front of us? "Fang Xu is worthy of being a minister of Dali Temple, and he is good at reasoning and analysis.
Song Luoyang shook his head and repeated what he said to Hai Lao. It surprised several people. They know Song Luoyang's temper best and cannot tell lies. Because I didn¡¯t hear it with my own ears before. Some still don't believe it. I thought it was just her gentleness that caught his eye, and I was irritated. Unexpectedly, it turned out to be true. But they didn't hear any rumors about this child. Several people secretly murmured in their hearts that this child was extraordinary.
Everyone hopes to become famous. No matter what event she wins, Song Luoyang can become famous all over the world. But she just didn't want to announce it. Knowing it at such a young age so as not to show it is not something that ordinary people can do.
Hengfang Pavilion
"Princess, the patriarch's wife is here. I have been waiting for you for a long time." When night fell, Wen Wan returned from outside. Ziyue, who was guarding the old lady's personal maid at the gate, hurriedly came up to greet her.
As soon as she arrived at the upper room and was about to salute, the patriarch¡¯s wife pulled Wen Wan affectionately. He said many words of praise. If it were another granddaughter, Ping's mother would definitely be happy. But if it were replaced by the disobedient and prickly Wenwan, his face would not look so good.
"Wen Wan. Your uncle wanted to ask you to do him a favor. He looked around and tried so many people. None of them were reliable. In the end, he had no choice but to ask you for help." Wen Wan asked strangely. ,whats the matter. In the end, I had no choice but to ask myself for help.
"It's like this. Your uncle has always wanted to find a good gentleman to teach the children of the clan. But the children in the clan are very naughty. He hired several gentlemen, but it was of no use at all. So, I would like to ask you to help me. Find a good gentleman," my great-aunt said very politely.
Wen Wan said that she will try her best. Later, I asked the teacher for help and found a gentleman named Yan. Mr. Yan lives up to his surname and is very strict in teaching. Mr. Yan himself is a civil servant. He taught well, and six of his students were awarded Jinshi and eight students were awarded the title of Juren. Both of his own sons were awarded Jinshi. This was in ancient times. It's a very remarkable achievement. He can be regarded as a gold medal teacher.
Many officials wanted to invite him to sit in the palace. This time he happened to be at home after leaving school, so the teacher invited him. If not for the sake of the teacher. Mr. Yan will not agree. While his son was in office, he kept writing letters asking his father not to work too hard and to enjoy his old age at home. However, due to the teacher's friendship, he promised to teach them for a while and then find a good teacher for them after correcting the atmosphere.
He knew that the atmosphere of the Taira family was not good, so before he took office, he made a three-part agreement with the clan leader: he would discipline the children and not allow anyone to interfere, otherwise he would resign immediately. When the patriarch heard that it was Mr. Yan, he was extremely happy. All his requests were agreed to.
The result of this is that the children in the tribe cry for their father and mother, and their parents come to the door of the tribe leader. The patriarch's attitude was particularly tough this time, and he said very simply that he could go home if he couldn't bear the hardship. Food and drink are provided in the clan school, which saves the children from chewing. Many parents are reluctant to part with the welfare, so they cruelly let their children suffer. How can they lose a piece of meat? As a result, the children in the clan are in dire straits every day.
Shang Kuan, Shang Shui, Shang Raccoon, Shang Bin, and Shang Lin each took turns crying to Ping Mu. I felt so distressed for my mother-in-law. After passing the message, the clan leader's answer was very simple. If you can't bear it, go and ask for the teacher yourself. You need to be in the clan school, that's it.
"Grandma, go and ask for a gentleman! Look at my hands." Shang Bin showed Ping's mother his pig's hoof-like hand again, which made Ping's mother feel so distressed that she shed tears. Looking at the other grandsons, except for Shang Qi, who was in better condition, the rest of them had extremely swollen hands.
Knowing that there was nothing he could do against the clan leader¡¯s decision, he immediately called his son. He said that he had hired a gentleman, but how could he let such an impersonal gentleman abuse his grandson? Ping explained to Cheng for a long time, but it was useless. My father went to the village again. I had no choice but to agree.
But after turning around, he immediately forced Shang Bin to go to school, and he was not allowed to complain, otherwise his legs would be broken. Although Anshi from the fifth room felt distressed after seeing it, Shang Lin's handwriting has been good recently. He endured the sadness in his heart and let them go to clan school.
Shangtang in the second room is very studious, my husband likes it very much, and he rarely hits the wrench. This teacher is very talented and knowledgeable, and Shang Tang still likes this gentleman.
As for Shang Kuan, Shang Shui and Shang Raccoon, they were forced by Shang Tu to return to their clan studies. The reason is simple. Chinese food is provided in the Ethnology School; paper, pens, and ink are also provided in the School of Ink. At home, these all cost money. If you don¡¯t go, it doesn¡¯t matter. You can have lunch on your own. Within two days, I went obediently. Therefore, the gentleman invited by Ping's mother resigned within half a month.
Wenwan used a third-floor house of her own as a workshop. Wenwan's workshop is now ready. The twenty embroiderers sent by King Zheng had all arrived ten days ago, and the invited embroiderers were allowed to make dolls inside. All they did were the twelve zodiac signs that Wen Wan asked Xia Ying to draw before.
She didn¡¯t come forward herself, leaving everything to shopkeeper Lin. Shopkeeper Lin is a shrewd person recruited from the property under the palace by Butler Lin to help Wen Wan take care of it. Wen Wan was very depressed and kept complaining. Why isn't my uncle my biological father? Or, it might as well be that the teacher is your own father!
On this day, shopkeeper Lin came over to report to Wen Wan.
"Princess, those toys are ready. Shopkeeper Lin asked when the baby toy store will open." Xia Tian came in and asked. A gentle baby toy store, the store is located in the center of the city.
"No rush." ??Wen Wan was not in a hurry.
The first batch of the twelve zodiac signs made at the beginning were all sent to the palace. These first batch of things were all made by Wen Wan, who had ten capable maids around her. Among them, the dragon is the most exquisite. Let the best embroidery workers do Xia Hong embroidery.
That dragon doll is made of the best silk and satin, and in addition to the wool made of silk, the embroidery thread is also made of gold and silver hammered foil, twisted into gold and silver threads and used in large quantities. The embroidered dragon doll has gorgeous and luxurious colors, elegant style and lifelike image. It is a fine piece of work.
The remaining eleven zodiac dolls are elegant, delicate, beautiful in pattern, flexible in stitching, and exquisite in embroidery. They are clever and decent in stitching and very cute with their silly heads. Children will generally like them after seeing them.
Sent to the palace, the Ministry of Internal Affairs was greatly surprised by what Wen Wan sent. The report was immediately reported to the emperor. After a detailed inspection by the palace staff, it was proved that there was no problem with the things. So he presented the things to the emperor for inspection. Wen Wan made a special note in it: The dragon doll was given to the emperor's grandfather. The emperor took the gift given to him by Wen Wan, laughed loudly, and used the dragon doll as a backrest. The rest were rewarded to several little princesses and princes; as well as several princes and princesses.
This propaganda was done so well that even the emperor used it. People in the capital followed suit one after another. When guests come to the door, there is a long queue. Wenwan is not polite, and there are three levels of pricing, one hundred taels, fifty taels, and twenty taels. The only difference is the materials used. The first batch of toys sold out immediately. There was a long line of people who had made reservations. Even if I work overtime, I can't catch up.
Wenwan herself received an elite education, so she naturally wanted to take a high-end route. Therefore, I would rather ship less goods, and there must be no difference in price and quality. Therefore, all the items used by Wenwan are made of fine fabrics, and the insides are filled with soft, genuine cotton.
Wenwan is trying to save resources. Before her doll and toy store opened, she specially sent shopkeeper Lin to the etiquette department. The Minister of Rites is Sister-in-law Wen Wan¡¯s biological father. Speaking of which, he is also a relative! After discussing with him, he collected the scraps left over from making clothes for the nobleman and made a twenty-year contract. This was discarded before, but now that the princess has spoken, she naturally agrees to it, and it can also generate income. Wen Wan also paid a fair price, which was 10% of the price of the whole piece of cloth, which was not low.
??Going to the two largest embroidery shops in Beijing, their prices are a little lower, only half the price of the original fabric. For Xiu Lou, it¡¯s pretty good. After all, these were useless before.
With the raw materials from these three places, you can save a lot of costs. Those who follow the trend will naturally not be able to get such huge benefits. The price of cotton in Beijing took advantage of the situation to rise, so Wen Wan went to the surrounding cities.?. It¡¯s not like she made as many goods as the sea and the sky. (To be continued)
