Thanks to Feihu Juju and Mr. Pengcheng for the reward, Su Xiaoguan is willing to offer it with chrysanthemums.

Everyone in the audience was so angry at Su Jin's poor showdown behavior that they stamped their feet and began to curse in a hurry.
Su Jin stretched out his hand to signal everyone to be quiet, his face became extremely sad and angry, and he said loudly: "That person said that we people in Luzhou City can't afford to wear silk and satin, and they are all a bunch of poor people! He also said that we people in Luzhou Prefecture can't afford to wear silk.
They are all short and poor, and can only wear black and white coarse cloth blouses."
The whole crowd was in an uproar, and people were shouting and yelling. The scene was extremely chaotic for a while.
"You bastard, this Guangling pig dares to look down on us Luzhou people, so I'll skin him."
"There is a bird money in Yangzhou Prefecture, and it is all sold by Yangzhou women. Compared with making money, this little son of a bitch actually has the guts to talk."
"Master Su, where is the turtle grandson? Let me go meet him."
"..."
Su Jin looked at the indignant scene in front of him and was very satisfied; originally he thought that the regional concept of the Song Dynasty was not that strong, and his strategy of sowing discord would not work, but now it seems that the effect is very good.
The woman in purple frowned and thought, thinking: What is he going to do? Why is he fabricating these words? Anyone who knows a little bit about business knows that business people will never offend others easily with words. The so-called business cannot be done with righteousness, Su Jin
It's so pretentious that it can only fool the people, but I don't know what purpose it achieves.
I saw Su Jin shouting loudly on the stage: "Everyone, please be patient and listen to me."
Everyone heard the remark, and their voices gradually subsided, and only Su Jin said: "After hearing what this man said, as a member of the Luzhou Prefecture, how can I not be angry? Even if I angrily reprimanded him for being unreasonable, the man saw that the situation was not good and went to bed that night.
Left Luzhou City."
Someone in the audience shouted: "Master Su, you are too useless. If I were here, I would have slapped him hard and knocked out a few of his teeth."
"That's right, Mr. Su spared him so lightly. How can we relieve his hatred by scolding him?" Everyone agreed.
Su Jin waved his hand and said: "How can you get away with beating someone? This kind of person is a mean-mouthed person. Just beating and scolding will not help at all. He will also have the prefectures of the Song Dynasty say that we Luzhou Prefecture people are arrogant and unreasonable."
"Then let this guy just slap his ass and leave after scolding us Luzhou people?" someone shouted.
Su Jin sighed and said: "Actually, there is something I have always wanted to say, but I couldn't say it."
"Come on, come on, stop being pretentious. If you eat crotons and poop, you will poop out. Stop whining and whining. Don't look like..." The man finally saw the angry looks of hundreds of pairs of women around him.
She reacted very quickly and swallowed the word 'girl' in her stomach in time.
Su Jin swung the hem of his gown and said: "In that case, I will speak frankly. I think what the Yangzhou businessman said is true. Perhaps we people in Luzhou Prefecture are really as cool as he said in the eyes of outsiders."
There was a big uproar in the audience, and someone immediately yelled: "You are not from Luzhou anymore. What nonsense are you talking about? Why are you turning your elbows outward?"
"Don't be upset. Please take a look at yourselves. What are you wearing on your body, on your head, on your feet, and on your waist? Is there anything that can convince others that we in Luzhou Prefecture are not short and poor?"
Everyone looked around at each other in astonishment and fell silent for a moment. There were nearly a thousand people in the field. Except for a few officials, gentry and wealthy families, the others were all wearing linen clothes, cloth hats, or straw sandals. Not to mention accessories, most of them were wearing linen clothes.
Even their belts were just straw ropes. A large group of people looked ugly and looked like a bunch of poor people.
Su Jin said loudly: "On our Luzhou Street, nine out of ten people are dressed like you. Their bodies are either linen or coarse cloth, and their colors are either black or white. Some of you have returned from foreign affairs, so you must know what else is going on."
On the streets and alleys of the state capital, which is known as a prosperous place, everyone is well-dressed and has an extraordinary demeanor. Outsiders can tell that this place is prosperous at a glance. As the saying goes, "food, clothing, housing and transportation", and the clothes come first, which means that dressing is the responsibility of the people.
It's a top priority. With my fellow villagers in Luzhou Prefecture dressed up like this, it's no wonder that I was so speechless by that Nanbarbarian that I could only remain speechless and let him get arrogant."
The people in the audience were speechless. They had to admit that what Su Jin said made sense. You said you were not poor, but you were dressed in rags like a beggar. Who could believe it?
At this moment, an old man who looked like a gentleman spoke from the audience: "What exactly does Mr. Su mean?"
"What I mean is that to stop others from talking, we don't rely on insults and beatings, but on practical actions. We, the folks in Luzhou, should be well-dressed and speak elegantly, so that those who laugh at me in Luzhou can
Shut up, short and poor people." Su Jin said with a smile.
"Moreover, when the man from Yangzhou left, I made a three-year agreement with him. After three years, I asked him to come back to Luzhou and told him that if the streets were full of silk and satin and everyone was extremely popular, he would
We have to apologize publicly. Wouldn't it be more satisfying to apologize on our own than to force him to submit by force?"
Everyone was talking and nodding. If you want to be convinced by someone, you have to be convinced. However, Mr. Su's behavior is a bit childish. Although Luzhou Prefecture is not a remote place, it can also be regarded as a land of plenty, but if everyone wears silk ribbons.
Satin and cowhide are too big.
The old man who looked like a gentleman shook his head and said, "Although what Mr. Su said is reasonable, there are two things that are wrong with me."
"I would like to hear the details." Su Jintai said with cupped hands.
"First, our Song Dynasty court stipulates that all walks of life have regulations on dressing and wearing hats. The colors of ordinary people are mainly gray, white and black. If we follow what Mr. Su said, doesn't everyone violate the laws of the court?"
Su Jin laughed and said: "Sir, you are talking about the old rules. In the second year of Baoyuan, the Ministry of Rites once talked about the clothing of the people. It said, "The basic necessities of the people are food, clothing, housing and transportation. Jinling, Yangzhou, Suhang, etc.
In this land, many people wear silk and satin, and they are gradually becoming extravagant. Although this trend cannot last, there is no need to ban it. Because the people are rich, their clothes are luxurious. It only needs to be restrained a little and not to violate the official system." The Ministry of Rites said clearly,
As long as you don’t use the four colors used in official robes.”
Su Jin was somewhat grateful to the young master he possessed. If he hadn't read a lot of books, he would never have been able to remember the official documents from a few years ago. Official documents issued by the imperial court were often announced in the form of notices, and some literati had no time to do so.
When bored, he would compile these as notes, and then spend some money to engrave them into books. This can be regarded as writing a book and becoming famous.
However, the Su family knew that the young master liked to read, so they would buy everything in the bookstore regardless of what was available in the bookstore. The servant would go out to the street and buy everything. Su Jin, a physical body, had all sorts of things in his head.
As for the color of official clothes, this is already common sense. The Song Dynasty stipulated that the four colors of official clothes were purple, vermilion, green and green. Official clothes of the third rank and above were purple, also known as Feise; red was the official uniform of the fifth rank and above, and green and green were the official clothes.
Corresponding to the seventh and ninth grades respectively, as long as they are not wearing these four pure official uniform styles, then there will be no problem.
The old man turned around and chatted in a low voice with a scholar-looking man next to him. The scholar said something, and the old man nodded repeatedly. Then he raised his head and said, "What Mr. Su said is indeed true, but I have forgotten it."
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter. Except for us in the cloth business, no one will remember this official document in their hearts. It's human nature." Su Jin smiled and handed over.
"But I think there is a second problem." The old man said with a smile.
Su Jin chuckled and said, "Guess what? The old gentleman must be saying that the people of our Luzhou Prefecture are not rich enough to afford silk and satin, right?"
The old man said: "That's right. A piece of silk is worth six guan, and a silk robe requires more than enough money. Ordinary people's money can be enough for a family to live for half a month. Who can buy good clothes when they have nothing to do?"
Su Jin nodded and said: "It's always said that money is too much and too little is too little. Although Luzhou is not the richest place in the world, every household still has this little money. Besides, I, Su Ji, also have a corresponding solution.
It will be announced later that even if we don’t get a penny of profit, we, the people of Luzhou, will have a new appearance.”
The old man twisted his beard and said with a smile: "Young master Su, if you don't gain anything, you will work in vain, so why?"
Su Jin laughed loudly and said: "For the sake of a breath, for the three-year agreement with that Yangzhou barbarian."
"Okay!" Everyone in the audience shouted, but they didn't expect that this weak young man from the Su family would have such a bullish temper that he would never look back until he hit the wall.
Su Jin cupped his fists and bowed, and said loudly: "Don't worry about whether you have money or not to wear new clothes during the Dragon Boat Festival. Let's first see what silk and satin looks like on my Luzhou people. The rest will come later.
Say it again."
After saying that, with a double palm strike, more than a dozen boys ran out from the backstage, carrying dozens of short platforms from the wings. After putting them together, a half-foot-high 'T'-shaped platform was erected on the stage, and the red carpet
On the pavement, more than ten brocade stools were placed on the high platforms on both sides of the T-shaped platform.
A pretty little maid with two hairpins and a red face came forward and said: "If you are willing to come to the stage to watch, please come to the stage from the side. There is only one condition: those who are disheveled are not allowed to come on stage."
Dozens of thugs originally planned to swarm onto the stage, but after hearing the last words and looking at each other, they had no choice but to give up.
But those officials, ladies, ladies, and gentlemen respected their status and were not willing to show up on the stage. Some young gentlemen really wanted to go up, but because of the public glare, they had to stay away.
After the little maid shouted three times, no one came on stage. In the awkward moment, the crowd suddenly gave way. A woman in purple walked onto the stage with two maids, one tall and one short, and sat on the right side.
On a brocade stool.
Everyone was in an uproar. This woman was none other than He Fenglou's unparalleled hostess, the goddess in the eyes of the young master of Luzhou. Unexpectedly, she gave him face and took the lead on the stage. With her as the leader, the young masters and young ladies rushed to the stage, a dozen of them in total.
The seats filled up instantly, and many people were a step too late to grab a seat. They had no choice but to curse themselves for being cowardly and missing out on a good opportunity.
Su Jin secretly glanced at the woman in purple and saw her beautiful eyes staring at the catwalk, with a thoughtful look on her fair and elegant face;
Su Jin stopped thinking about it and sat down on a brocade stool on the left side. He nodded to the little maid in front of the stage. The little maid called out in a sweet voice: "Please appreciate our Su Ji Clothing Store and Su Ji Garment Shop."
