Marriage of the Di Daughter

Marriage of the Di Daughter

“Tong Zhi Yang’s official road will be difficult to walk after this.” Ye Ming Xuan said. “Even if it’s for the purpose of giving a bitter lesson, He-shi would not let him have an easy time like before, perhaps reducing the authority in his hand.”

“It’s a good thing for us.” Ye Jia Er said. “However….. Even so, the ancient fragrant satin business has now taken a dive.”

Tang Fan let someone explain the causes and effects of the matter of the Ye family’s ancient fragrant satin. But the common people only cared about the result, not concerned with the twists and turns inside. Regardless of whether it was set up by others, the problem lay in the Ye family’s ancient fragrant satin. Wearing the ancient fragrant satin might cause death, so they would not wear it.

The weaving room had already resumed weaving cloth, but no one dared to purchase the latest batch of ancient fragrant satin. There was no alternative and Ye Ming Hui could only suspend all the weaving production. But up till now they still could not think up a good way to solve this.

“Otherwise, don’t do this business anymore.” Ye Ming Yu said casually. “In any case, our Ye family’s property is sufficient to last several generations, who’s still anxious to earn silver. Just learn from those rich and noble sons from wealthy families, travel around all day long, isn’t it good?”

This simply wasn’t something that a person from a Ye family would say. Sure enough, after these words came out, Ye Ming Hui immediately gave a strict look at his younger brother. He said: “It’s best if you don’t say this in front of mother. These years, I think you have grown up in vain, the more you live the more you go backwards!”

Guan-shi helplessly said: “Third brother, it’s not a question of whether we do business or not. The Ye family’s business is raised by father and mother single-handedly. It’s not as if you are not aware of how much sweat and blood did mother spend on ancient fragrant satin then. How could we let the Ye family’s business be ruined in our hands? In the future, under the nine springs, we won’t have any face to meet father.”

“Yes, third uncle,” Ye Jia Er also said: “right now, eldest brother is sitting as an official. I heard that silver is needed to organize things up and down. Yanjing is not like Xiangyang and it’s not known how much silver needed to be spent. We must not let eldest brother be strapped for cash in the capital.”

“That’s right,” Ye Ming Xuan also said: “even Jia Er understands things better than you.” He glanced at Jiang Li and said: “Moreover, this time something happened to ancient fragrant satin. If it were not for Ah Li stepping out, lending the Jiang family’s name, how could we retreat intact? People have helped you at one end, but on the other end you stop doing business. What would the Jiang family feel if they heard it?”

Jiang Li understood the meaning in Ye Ming Xuan’s words. Not mentioning herself, even though Jiang Yuan Bai was an official, in fact, the officialdom and merchants nowadays used different means to achieve the same result, equally paying attention to benefits. Jiang Yuan Bai helped the Ye family, what value the Ye family had was nothing else but their business that was better than others. If the Ye family stopped doing business, they no longer had any worth. The Jiang family assisted the Ye family enthusiastically but then did not get anything, this transaction would be regarded as not profitable.

Though the words were unpleasant to hear, it’s not as if Ye Ming Xuan spoke without reason.

“Okay, okay, back and forth saying that I don’t understand anything.” Ye Ming Yu was attacked from all sides and promptly cupped his hand to beg for mercy. He said: “I say, it’s not you, but I was wrong. However, it’s not just me saying so. By the look of it, it goes without saying that the ancient fragrant satin business can no longer be done. Our Ye family’s manufacturing plant is precisely relying on the ancient fragrant satin, right?”

The whole Ye family was silent.

Jiang Li said: “Aside from ancient fragrant satin, are there no other weaving in the plant?”

“It’s not that there’s nothing else,” Guan-shi explained, “there are still many other cloths in our weaving plant. It’s just that aside from ancient fragrant satin, those other cloths can be made by other people. Since others can make them, their appeal is much less. At that time, father was still around, every once in a while, father and mother had come up with a new popular cloth. But only ancient fragrant satin could last a long time.”

“The ancient fragrant satin is a first-class material and still carries a fragrance. The nobles and wealthy love wearing it. Even the common people, if they have plenty of silver, are willing to buy one or two bolts for them to make clothes for the festivals. Thus it doesn’t lack buyers.”

Jiang Li pondered and said: “So to say, the reason why the Ye family relies on the ancient fragrant satin is because the ancient fragrant satin is loved by the people, not because it cannot be reproduced by others. As long as we can produce a more attractive material to the people than ancient fragrant satin, the Ye family reputation can soon be revived, right?”

The people in the room were quiet. Ye Jia Er said: “Younger sister, it’s easy to speak, but these many years, there are many merchants dealing with cloths. There are so many designs and colors. You can produce them, other people also can produce them. Don’t mention being fond of or not, even “cannot be reproduced by others”, these five words, is not easy to do,”

This was true, ancient fragrant satin could not be reproduced by others because of the natural fragrance woven into the cloth. That was the secret of the Ye family that outsiders did not know. But secret recipes, this thing, was not something that could be found and bought from the street. Perhaps not even one could be found in ten or a hundred years. There were times when a single secret recipe could save the entire family clan.

“Isn’t uncle Ming Yu running outside all year round?” Jiang Li looked at Ye ming Yu and asked: “Talking about uncommon materials that people have not seen before, uncle Ming Yu should have seen many of them.”

If you wanted to look for “secret recipe”, you had to find a novel “raw material”. It’s hard for the people in the Ye residence to see much, which was different from Ye Ming Yu. He ran everywhere from the desert to the grassland. He could always encounter some rare things that other people could not. Within these rare things, perhaps there’s something that could be made into a new fabric.

Everyone looked at Ye Ming Yu. Ye Ming Yu touched his nose and rather embarrassedly whispered: “I saw many uncommon things all day long, but they have nothing to do with making fabrics. Going out to play, who still thought of work…….”

Both Ye Ming Hui and Ye Ming Yu showed a look of “hating metals for not turning into steel”. It’s a well-known matter that this younger brother was not reliable.

But Jiang Li was not discouraged.

She said: “It does not necessarily be a rare thing related to weaving, for example the box of peacock feather uncle Ming Yu sent me, can’t it also be used in fabric?”

“Peacock feather?” Ye Ming Yu stared blankly.

“What peacock feather?” Ye Ming Xuan asked.

“When third uncle came back, he brought several trunks of good looking conches that look like peacock feathers, very beautiful. However, it’s not worth any money.” Ye Ru Feng said unhappily. After he finished speaking, he curiously looked at Jiang Li, “how can peacock feather be used in fabric?”

Ye Ming Yu also looked at her. Although he found these conches, he was also baffled for its usage. When he originally bought these peacock feathers, he did not think about whether it was suitable for business or not. It’s just that he
