Chapter 1291

"Wu Meiniang wants to make ready-made clothes." after the news came, zhiniang looked at the winter clothes in front of her and couldn't help smiling.

The so-called heroes think alike. Not only did Wu Meiniang see the high profits of silk clothes, but also zhiniang saw the money path of cotton clothes.

Recently, the Weaver has greatly reduced the labor cost by using the hydraulic spinning machine. She finds that she is already the leader of the textile industry in Chang'an city. If she seizes the Chang'an City market at a low price, she will only hurt herself. Making cotton cloth into cotton clothes can not only ensure the profits of the workshop, but also make a way in the small-scale peasant economy.

Because in the small-scale peasant economy where men farm and women weave, the only way to sell cotton clothes is to reduce the price of cotton clothes to the point where it is not cost-effective for farmers to make ready-made clothes, so the weaver sets the price of cotton clothes she produces at a very low price. In order to minimize the price and obtain as much profit as possible, she works between Confucian clothes and ink clothes, Zhiniang did not hesitate to choose the ink clothes with the simplest workmanship and the most material saving.

"Thirty Wen for a cotton padded coat!"

When the cotton clothes of zhiniang workshop appeared in Chang'an City, almost everyone was surprised.

You should know that it takes several kilograms of cotton to make only one cotton coat, buy cotton cloth, and then spend manual time to sew it. The single material cost nearly thirty Wen, so the price of thirty Wen of cotton coat immediately aroused the rush purchase of Chang'an people.

"That's not how it works. If we grow cotton, spin, weave and sew cotton clothes ourselves, we won't spend a penny." a peasant woman said painfully, still unwilling to spend the thirty cents.

The young woman on one side said with a smile: "It's really not like that. The price of male workers in Chang'an city is 300 Wen a day, and the price of female workers is about 200 Wen a day. It takes at least ten days to save 30 Wen from spinning flowers and weaving to sewing, while female workers can earn 100 Wen in half a month. If you save the time to make clothes, wouldn't you earn more?"

Since the Mohist School advocated women's prosperity, in addition to the Mohist School's massive recruitment of women workers, other stores have followed suit and began to recruit women workers. We should know that women workers are cheaper in price and more careful and skillful. Women workers began to prevail in Chang'an city.

The premise of the prevalence of female workers is to liberate women from heavy housework, especially spinning flowers, weaving and sewing clothes. However, it is a big project for every family, and the Weaver's cheap cotton clothes just catch up with this opportunity to liberate women from heavy spinning.

"Yes, not to mention the cotton clothes made by the Weaver's workshop, which are beautiful, diverse, high-quality and cheap." many girls agreed.

For women, in addition to being diligent and thrifty, they also need to pursue beauty. Compared with their own hand-made clothes, the appearance of cotton clothes produced by zhiniang workshop has been greatly improved.

For a while, cotton clothes sold well in Chang'an City, and even spread to other big cities along the brick road. This winter, ink clothes rose strongly.

Zhiniang's cotton clothes impact the clothes of the middle and lower class people in Chang'an City, and the emergence of down clothes completely amazes the middle and upper class ladies in Chang'an city.

"It's fashionable, soft and warm. Silk is the face and down is the lining. It's as light as nothing. It's actually the most perfect thing for women to keep out the cold."

Compared with stiff cotton clothes and heavy fur clothes, down jacket can be said to be light and beautiful. Once it appeared on the market, it immediately caused an uproar in the ladies' circle of Chang'an city.

"Ordinary down jacket 300 Wen a piece, embroidered down jacket 500 Wen a piece!"

Even if the down jacket is expensive, the ladies of Chang'an city rush to buy it, and everyone is proud to have down jacket.

"Meiniang, down jackets are selling crazy! Now merchants in Chang'an city are constantly urging goods." a Mohist daughter-in-law said excitedly.

"OK!" Wu Meiniang waved her fist excitedly. Although she was quite confident in the down jacket, she couldn't help being excited when she heard the success of the down jacket. This was her own achievement.

"From now on, women workers, especially embroidery women, will be recruited immediately. Winter is coming and the weather is about to turn cold. This time, down jackets will not only be distributed in Chang'an City, but also face the whole Tang Dynasty." Wu Meiniang said with satisfaction.

"But our cash has already been put into it, if......" a Mohist daughter-in-law worried that they had spent all Wu Meiniang's coffers in order to store goods.

Wu Meiniang nodded without hesitation and said, "then take the down jacket workshop to the Bank of Mojia village for loans. We don't make special loans. We just borrow according to the normal process. I believe shopkeeper Shen won't refuse."

Sure enough, when Wu Meiniang went to Mojia village bank for a mortgage loan with a down jacket workshop, Shen Hongcai happily approved a huge sum of money.

Wu Meiniang, who got the money, couldn't wait to carry out the next round of expansion. She ordered machinery in the south, bought silk in the East and mules and horses in the West. For a while, the price of silk rose sharply again. Wu Meiniang made silk return to its peak with her own strength.

"Wu Meiniang's down jacket workshop has recruited female workers."

As the news spread all over Chang'an City, the women in Chang'an City exclaimed one after another. It suddenly occurred that the down jacket that caused an uproar in Chang'an city was actually written by Wu Meiniang.

Down jacket is now popular in Chang'an City, and Wu Meiniang is a man of the moment in Chang'an city. People originally thought that Wu Meiniang would be silent after Mo Jiazi sent Wu Meiniang to the cotton spinning workshop, but no one thought that she would rise again in such a short time.

With Wu Meiniang's leading call and the expensive price offered by the down jacket workshop, the price is the same as that of male workers. In January, women in Chang'an City enthusiastically came to sign up as female workers. For a while, female workers in Chang'an City were popular.

A large number of female workers directly stimulate the economy of Chang'an city. One month's salary is enough to buy a family's cotton clothes. When the down jacket in Chang'an City sells well, the Weaver's cotton clothes workshop is at its peak.

Moreover, seeing Wu Meiniang's big hand weaving mother, she also followed the gourd and painted a gourd, took her own cotton clothes workshop mortgage, also opened a new round of expansion and wantonly recruited female workers.

For a while, Chang'an city female owner Chang is no longer a slogan, but really realized in Chang'an city. A female worker can also support family responsibilities.

With a cold current coming from the northwest, the whole north is desolate, and winter is coming.

At the same time, carts of cotton clothes and down coats drove to the whole Central Plains, and the trend of thought of female Lord Chang also spread from Chang'an city to the whole Tang Dynasty.

No one thought that the female Lord Chang was so easily realized by two women.
