Chapter 462 Three sets of purple clothes and shoes
As the name implies, the things in the workshop are all made by skillful hands. There are many kinds and a wide variety of eyes. It has been established in the capital for decades. Customers like to come here from those with gray hair to those who are young and can distinguish beauty and ugliness.
It's just that the things in this skillful workshop are not cheap. You get what you pay for. The things made by skillful hands are naturally good, so they are also expensive.
Eight out of ten of the customers in the workshop are rich and powerful, and the rest are all exchanged for a thing here with the money they have saved for many days.
As soon as Shen Zi'an accompanied Su Zhi in, he was first greeted by the two girls in light yellow clothes standing at the door with a smile, and then asked them in a sweet voice if they needed any help.
Su Zhi thought that such a service is really like the service in some modern stores. Sure enough, business people, both in ancient and modern times, will rack their brains to come up with ways to satisfy customers. She didn't feel cramped. She smiled and said she wanted to have a look at it casually.
"Master, madam, is this your first time here? It's very big here. Do you need someone to show you the way?
A girl with a sweet smile asked.
Su Zhi looked at it and seemed to be quite big inside, so she nodded.
The girl smiled and said, "Then let me take my master and wife to have a look!"
Shen Zi'an and Su Zhi walked forward, listening to the girl introducing the skillful workshop, listening to the beautiful voice telling the history of the skillful workshop, as well as the types of things sold, I think it was very interesting. Although Su Zhi came this time with the purpose of finding the truth of her life, she was still interested in the operation of the skillful workshop. Thinking that I have money now, if I really have something I like, I can buy it back.
There are a variety of things in this workshop. Each kind is divided into a area, which is divided into courtyards. You can only see it walking along the corridor inside, and then walk to a small yard. There are flowers, plants, bamboo and trees in each small yard, which are very exquisite and quiet. The contents are also very exquisite and particularly popular.
Su Zhi almost bought a few things in a yard, which were not very cheap, and it cost more than 200 taels. These things were sent to the front hall and taken away together when they left.
"Girl, your clothes, shoes and socks here are very beautiful."
Su Zhi is now in the yard selling clothes, shoes and socks. Looking at the row of exquisite and colorful clothes in front of her, as well as a pair of shoes, Su Zhi talked to the girl in charge of selling clothes here.
The girl has long known from the eyes of the girl leading the way that today's guests are very kind and generous, so her attitude is better than usual.
"Madam, the workmanship of our skillful workshop is top-notch, and the style is also good, but the most valuable one is this ingenuity. Even if the ordinary style comes to us, it will look good. Look at the clothes and shoes. If this style is done by an ordinary tailor outside, it will definitely not look as good as this dress here!"
"It's very good."
Su Zhi answered casually, and then asked, "The style of your shoes here is very good. Do you often change the style? Or as long as it looks good, it will still be sold a few years ago?
"Madam, what the ladies and wives in the capital like most is to change the appearance. Generally, it changes once a year. No matter how good the appearance was a few years ago, the pattern has to be changed."
The girl said with a smile that the lady in front of her was very good-looking and spoke in a pleasant voice. The smiling made her feel like a spring breeze blowing. Listening to her speech was as comfortable as drinking a cool spring water. Look at her white skin, it's really like snow, and her hair is as black as shiny satin. Even if she is pregnant, she is so beautiful. No wonder the father-in-law around her is so considerate to her!
Su Zhi said, "A few years ago, square-headed shoes seemed to be popular in the capital, right? I don't seem to see it now. When did you start not selling that kind of shoes here?
The fake Taoist priest painted Su Zhi the clothes and shoes that Su Zhi had seen at the beginning. The shoes are square-headed and look very different from ordinary round-headed embroidered shoes, which can be remembered at a glance.
"That kind of shoes, it seems that they have only been sold for a year, and then they are no longer sold in the second year. Does your wife want to buy those shoes?
"Yes, I don't know if I can still do it?"
"The person who makes shoes here was newly changed last year. I really don't know if he will do it, but I think he will. I'll ask my wife. If possible, those shoes can be customized.
"Thank you very much. I don't know if I can meet the shopkeeper here? I want to make a set of clothes and a pair of shoes. The conditions are very high, so I have to tell her face to face. Can you help me get a message?"
Su Zhi thought that she had finished shopping and could cut into the theme. She also asked this girl just now. She was a newcomer here, and the girl who sold shoes had already married. If you want to ask about clothes and shoes, and if anyone recognizes you, you can only find the shopkeeper.
The girl heard this and said, "Of course you can meet our shopkeeper." Then he said that it would be enough to ask the girl who led the way just now to take them to find them.
The girl who led the way took them to the shopkeeper. It seemed that the skillful workshop was full of rich and powerful guests, and the shopkeeper was not so rare.
When he arrived in an elegant room, Su Zhi sat down, and Shen Zi'an also sat aside. Liu Yin stood aside. His eyes were going to be dazzled today. He thought it was really insightful.
After a while, a woman came in. She was a woman of about thirty years old. She was very beautiful and full of capable energy.
"Is it this master and madam who want to see me? I'm the shopkeeper of this workshop. My surname is Bai.
"White shopkeeper, I'm sorry to trouble you today."
Su Zhi said politely that this white shopkeeper is really somewhat similar to the Su shopkeeper in his hometown town. It seems that all the women who do business are almost the same.
"Madam is a guest. There is no trouble to talk about it. I heard that my wife wants to make sets of clothes and shoes, or the square-headed shoes of the previous years. I don't know what my wife has? What does it look like?"
"I have the drawings here."
Su Zhi asked Liu Yin to take out the drawings and send them to the shopkeeper. The shopkeeper Bai opened the drawing and looked at it. He was slightly stunned and looked up at Su Zhi. Su Zhi immediately knew what was unusual about the clothes or shoes on this drawing. She was overjoyed and thought that she was worried that this kind of shoes were ordinary. There were not a thousand pairs and a hundred pairs sold, so it was really hard to say who to sell them to. Looking at the look of the white shopkeeper now, he clearly remembers this kind of clothes or shoes!
"White shopkeeper, but have you ever seen this kind of clothes or shoes?"
"Exactly, I have a good memory. Although I can't remember everything sold from this workshop, I can still remember some of my favorite clothes and shoes. And I happened to remember all the clothes and shoes on the lady's drawing. Not only because they look good, but also because they were less clothes and shoes made at that time.
The white shopkeeper said with a smile that he was more polite to Su Zhi, thinking that the lady could take out the drawings of the limited number of clothes and shoes sold a few years ago, which showed that she also had a great status. After all, there were not many pieces of clothes and shoes sold at that time.
Su Zhi's eyes lit up and said, "I don't know how many pieces of this dress has been sold. How many pairs of shoes have been sold. Do you know who the white shopkeeper has sold them to?"
"There is a rule that the things we make in our skillful workshop are that rare are expensive, and the most ordinary things are only sold one hundred pieces at most, while the number of good things is generally sold less, and there will be some difference. The clothes and shoes that my wife brought in my hand are all right. I remember that at that time, there were only five colors of red, yellow, blue, purple and green. The style and pattern were all the same, but the material of this dress was different. There were three pieces of each color, with different materials, so that there were 15 completely different clothes. And the same is true of these shoes. But I don't know what the color and material of my wife's clothes and shoes are?
Su Zhi was stunned and thought it was good. The search scope was much less, but she didn't know what the material was.
"These clothes and shoes are purple, but I don't know what the material is."
Su Zhi said and looked at the white shopkeeper looking at her. She smiled and said honestly, "Mr. Bai, I won't tell you. I'm here today to know who bought such a set of purple clothes and shoes. You also said that as long as you like it, you can remember it, and there are only three purple clothes in total. Can you remember it? Please tell me who they are.
The shopkeeper Bai said, "I don't know why my wife asked this? I can't reveal this at will."
Su Zhi said, "This is not a secret. What can't the white shopkeeper reveal? I won't do anything bad. It's just that three years ago, a woman wearing such clothes and shoes helped my mother a lot. My mother has always kept it in mind, but she didn't see the benefactor's face, so she could only draw the clothes. My mother passed away last year, and I have always remembered this benefactor. I hope I can repay her. That's why I found it. I can swear to you, the white shopkeeper. I have absolutely no bad intentions to find the owner of this dress. I just want to repay the favor.
Su Zhi made up a lie, but she really wanted to repay her kindness by looking for the owner of the dress. After all, the original owner of the body gave up her place so that she could be reborn. Now to help her find her life is to repay her kindness!
When the white shopkeeper heard Su Zhi's words, he was also very moved. Thinking that Su Zhi, who was pregnant and did not forget to repay her mother's kindness, she was really a filial person, and she saw a lot of people. Su Zhi was not the kind of treacherous and evil person at first glance. She thought it was nothing to tell her.
That's it. Who did Su Zhi belong to the three purple clothes?
Coming out of the workshop and getting into the carriage, Su Zhi bowed her head and meditated.
"Daughter-in-law, these three people are all in the capital. We will visit one by one. We can definitely ask what happened. Don't worry, I'm always by your side."
Su Zhi nodded with a smile, thinking that no matter what the result is, she is Su Zhi, she is Shen Zi'an's wife, and no one can change it. That's it. RS
