Chapter 1143 I don’t know where the ban has been violated, and I am still applying for the lifting of the ban.
——
After hearing what Xun Wenqian said, Xun may have learned that although Mrs. Tang invited the emperor to attend the letter recommendation meeting, she did not want him to appear publicly.
This is outrageous.
What's even more outrageous is that the emperor actually agreed.
Xun may have repeatedly confirmed it, and the possibility of hearing it wrong was ruled out.
Thinking about the fact that I was ordered by Situ and came to Wancheng to discuss matters, the emperor did not know in advance, and he didn't say anything afterwards. Xun may also accept this fact slowly. Fortunately, he felt a little ashamed.
The world is peaceful and the court has no survival crisis. However, the emperor has not changed his original aspiration. He has lost his ambition to find a way for China and devotes himself to the rebirth of the Confucian school. He does not hesitate to give in to scholars for this.
In comparison, it is really not generous enough to let go of the dissident face and hesitate to move forward.
"The emperor wants you to buy clothes?" Xun may speed up his pace and keep up with him and walked to the door of a ready-to-wear store.
The store is not small, with a long wooden table inside. A middle-aged woman is cutting clothes with skillful techniques, so fast that she may not have time to see. Several young women sat aside sewing clothes, and they were also flying needles
.In the corner next to it, a young man was ironing with an iron, fog was swaying and making a whirring sound.
Along the wall, the finished clothes were hung with bright colors and neat colors.
Xun may have just bought clothes, but he was standing outside the door waiting, not going in to see, nor did he pay attention to why Xun Wenqian could buy ready-made clothes, instead of buying fabrics and making them himself. Seeing these things at this moment, he suddenly realized.
"There are any such stores?"
"New things in Wancheng." Xun Wenqian chuckled softly, "When Ah Weng is quiet, otherwise others will know that you are from another place when you hear it, it will not be so easy to bargain."
Xun's eyes glanced and found that the middle-aged woman who was cutting clothes turned around and smiled.
"What kind of clothes do you want to buy?"
Xun Wenqian looked at the clothes hanging beside him and said, "A young scholar, in his early twenties, is seven feet and six inches tall, has a well-proportioned figure. Well, he has been practicing martial arts for many years and is relatively strong, he must be a little looser and has a thicker fabric."
"Madam, I'm so lucky." The middle-aged woman flattered her and then took Xun Wenqian to a clothes hanger. "Madam, do you have any favorite colors?"
While checking the clothes, Xun Wenqian bargained with the middle-aged woman. Soon after, she decided to order two sets of ready-made clothes, totaling 450 yuan.
The middle-aged woman ordered someone to wrap her clothes and handed them to Xun Or who had already carried two cloth bags.
Xun Or was stunned for a moment, and then realized that he was treating him as his entourage, and he couldn't help but feel amused and crying.
He didn't even understand when the two cloth bags in his hand were taken over.
Xun Wenqian and his daughter also laughed.
Tang was a little embarrassed and wanted to take the cloth bag over and carry it himself. Xun Wenqian said, "Let him carry it. If you are tired, please let me change it. He is so busy that he rarely can accompany you. Let him go out today.
force."
"Nonsense." Tang scolded, but retracted his hand to get the cloth bag.
After leaving the door, Xun Wenqian leaned into Tang's ear and said, "It's nothing. The emperor often helps us carry things."
Tang was stunned, looking at Xun Wenqian, who said it was extremely natural, and then looked at Xun Or.
Xun Or said, "Okay, I'll carry it, it's not heavy anyway." He turned around and looked at the ready-to-wear store. "What a store like this?"
"More, you'll know if you'll see later."
"People have different heights, fatness, and thinness. How can they fit?"
"Although people have different heights, fatness and thinness, they still have many well-proportioned figures. As long as they make clothes according to a certain program, they can meet the requirements of most people. In this way, batch production will be cheaper, and it is desirable to use it immediately.
Save time, especially for outsiders. If you don’t fit, you can change it on the spot.”
"It's cheaper than buying clothes and making them yourself?"
"It's almost the same. But now, as long as women in Wancheng are not stupid or lazy, they can find things to do and make more money. No one is willing to waste time cutting cloth and making clothes. It's easier to buy them directly. Oh, by the way, I listen
It is said that someone has invented a machine that can sew clothes. Although it can only sew some straight seams, it is fast and very popular."
Xun may be stunned when he heard this. There are still machines that can sew clothes?
"Where is this kind of machine? I want to see it."
"I don't know, I want to ask." Xun Wenqian looked around. "It first appeared in a military uniform workshop, but it has been unknown. It has only flowed into the market recently. Because the cost is expensive, it is not affordable for small shops.
, you have to go to the largest store to see it."
——
Xun may have been shopping on the street for most of the day, and although he did not see a machine that could sew clothes, he also witnessed the prosperity of Wancheng with his own eyes.
He was very excited.
Although the prosperity of Wancheng is inseparable from a strong foundation, the more critical factor is technology.
Developing the potential of technology can produce more goods and make people more money. When people have money, they can in turn buy more goods to improve their lives and thus make a large number of goods
The mother must be sold everywhere, and most of it can be sold locally.
These are not unique conditions for Wancheng. Wancheng is OK, and other places can do it.
Even if it is not as good as Wancheng, it can greatly improve the local economy.
If all the counties and counties of the Han Dynasty could do this, how prosperous and powerful would the Han Dynasty be in ten years?
Xun may not dare to think, but he can't help but think.
He didn't sleep well all night. He woke up early the next morning and looked at the dark circles in the bronze arc, he felt helpless.
When he changed into the newly bought clothes and was about to take his wife and children to the Yinfang, Xun Wenqian rushed over and said that the emperor invited him to the same car.
Xun may not refuse and immediately rushed to the next yard.
Liu Xie stood in the yard, wearing the new clothes Xun Wenqian bought at the ready-to-wear store yesterday. I have to say that Xun Wenqian had a very accurate vision. This dress fits very well on him, and it looks like it is customized.
Seeing Xun Or, Liu Xie opened his arms and turned around.
"What does Xun Jun feel? Do you look like a scholar?"
Xun Or smiled slightly. "Your Majesty is both civil and military, and is familiar with the past and present, so how many people in the world can be a scholar?"
Liu Xie's eyes flashed slightly and he smiled. "Is Xun Jun a man a short mouth? It sounds so nice."
"How dare you, this is my heartfelt words."
"I love to hear such heartfelt words. I will be in the car later, Mr. Xun will say a few more words."
"only."
Looking at the half-true and half-fake funny, Xun Wenqian was happy.
Xun may have met the emperor many times, but the atmosphere was not often so harmonious. Especially in the past two years, Xun may have been dissatisfied with the emperor's behavior, and the emperor is not satisfied with Xun's attitude. When the two met, they had more differences than unification.
It often leaves unhappily, which makes it difficult for her to deal with.
"Okay, it's getting late, so you can set off and don't let Mrs. Tang wait too long."
Liu Xie happily agreed and went out with Xun and got on the prepared carriage.
Sun Quan, who was standing outside the car, was about to close the door, but Liu Xie leaned out again. "Zhongmou, don't follow him."
Sun Quan was stunned. "Your Majesty?"
"If you do this, just stand there and others will know that I am here." Liu Xie waved his hand. "If you leave for a day, if you want to go, just go and listen by yourself and don't follow me."

Sun Quan suddenly realized, touched his head awkwardly, gave a bow, and left happily.
