As Wu Zetian's messenger, Shangguan Wan'er set out early in the morning.

When I arrived in Mengxi, I saw camellia and mulberry trees planted everywhere on the vast land.

Many of these camellia and mulberry trees were transplanted from other places, with some specializing in supervising workers, while farmers were fiddling with them according to the rules.

Even Mengxi's barren land had eliminated the weeds and seemed to be reclaiming the wasteland. Shangguan Wan'er looked strange and saw that there were people building large sheds in the distance. The sheds were made of giant trees as pillars, but they were piled up with bricks and stones, pasted with mud, and were airtight. She didn't know what she was doing, but she was just thinking about finding Qin Shaoyou, so she didn't stop. When she arrived at Mengxi's camp, she saw that the camp was surrounded by mountains and rivers, which had been continuous for several miles, and occupied the upstream and downstream with the river water like a snake.

There must be water around the camp, which is common sense. Although the method of building a camp in this way is not easy to defend, it is very convenient in life. Obviously, Qin Shaoyou planned to stay in a permanent camp.

In the camp, the sound of horns whimpering, the sound of horse hooves and shouts were endless, and the atmosphere of training was very strong.

A ranger came over from afar and shouted, "Who is coming?"

Shangguan Wan'er sat in the car, lifted the curtain, revealing her bright eyes like stars: "I am ordered to see your chief Qin Shaoyou, please come out and meet him."

The ranger relaxed some alert, but scratched his head and said, "The captain is not in the camp."

"Where is that?"

"In Nuhongfang..."

"What..." Shangguan Wan'er was slightly stunned.

Female Red...What the hell is this?

She stumbled for a moment.

The rover said, "It's not far away. After passing the slope, I'll arrive. I'll take the female official there."

He rode the horse in front and slowly moved forward. Shangguan Wan'er had to put down the curtain and let the car follow him step by step.

After a hillside, the roar pointed to a greenhouse built by stone in front of him and said, "It's there, but there are rules here, men are not allowed to approach easily. Those who violate the order will be whipped. Someone can only send it here."

Men are not allowed to approach...

But why is Qin Shaoyou there... he is not a man?

Shangguan Wan'er was full of doubts, so she got off the car and ordered the coachman and guard to wait here, and then went down the slope.

As I approached the huge shed, I heard many voices of women coming from it.

"Qin Duwei, you think this is great..."

"Auntie Liu... You won't be able to do this. We have to follow the rules. Look at me."

"This is not a skill. Qin Duwei, my female red girl has always been good..."

"Miss Liu, the problem is not the craftsmanship, you have to have rules. Look at me, you have to use needles like this, the focus is on convenience and speed..."

Shangguan Wan'er frowned. Qin Shaoyou was really not growing. She was so full that she was full...

She was about to lift her legs in, but she heard Li Lingyue's voice. Li Lingyue shouted: "Look at how my embroidery..."

"Your Highness is well embroidered. It's true that he is smart, kind and wise, and he can understand it at a glance."

"Then... can this be sold for money?"

Qin Shaoyou's voice seemed very hesitant: "Your Highness should keep it yourself. Take it as a souvenir."

Li Lingyue said with a slightly dissatisfied voice: "I just want to sell money..."

"Well……"

"I knew you thought I was not well embroidered, right? I really had a quarrel. I knew you were not a good person."

Princess Taiping is here again...

Recently, Princess Taiping and Qin Shaoyou have been very close.

Shangguan Wan'er was thinking, but her face was calm, but her bright eyes were slightly displeased. She raised her legs and found that there were many people inside, most of whom were sitting behind the desk. The most important thing was that there were basically women here, both old and young.

Qin Shaoyou was demonstrating using needles with a middle-aged woman. He pinched the embroidery needle and seemed very serious. He pinched the needle and flew on a piece of cloth. The woman watched Qin Shaoyou use needles with concentration, and was still chanting in her mouth: "So that's it, it's too simple...so simple..."

Li Lingyue sat aside, probably because Qin Shaoyou had offended her just now and was looking at Qin Shaoyou coldly.

There was an embroidery in front of her desk. As for the workmanship, Shangguan Wan'er would look at it carefully, and it would be a terrible sight.

Shangguan Wan'er then stepped forward and coughed.

Qin Shaoyou was alarmed by the sound and panicked for a moment. With a whisper, he pierced his fingers. So he threw the needle and put his fingers into his mouth to suck. After winking for a while, he smiled bitterly: "Shangguan Diezhao, you really scared me."

Shangguan Wan'er glanced at Qin Shaoyou with an expressionless face and said, "Qin Duwei is so elegant."

"Where, where, Shangguan Kaizhao laughed." Qin Shaoyou seemed very modest: "Isn't this serving the court?"

Shangguan Wan'er raised her eyebrows: "Oh, it turns out that the Duwei Embroidery also serves the imperial court?"

Qin Shaoyou coughed and said, "This is natural."

Shangguan Wan'er picked up a piece of cloth for embroidery, but couldn't help but frown and couldn't help but say, "What is this?"

Everyone knows embroidery. Even Shangguan Wan'er knows a little bit of the girl's red color, which is nothing more than embroidering a piece of cloth. However, when she picked up the cloth, she found some differences. The cloth was a bit rough and had a thick texture. What's even more strange is that flowers and birds were painted on this cloth, and the style of flowers and birds was very new.

Qin Shaoyou smiled and said, "I'm a new thing called cross stitch, which is different from ordinary embroidery. Come on, come on, come on, come on, let's go inside and talk in detail."

Li Lingyue, who was standing beside her, seemed a little dissatisfied, but pretended not to hear it, just burying her head and playing with the embroidery needle.

Shangguan Wan'er looked at Li Lingyue with a meaningful look, but pretended not to see Li Lingyue. She moved her legs and went to a inner room separated by a felt cloth. Qin Shaoyou came with his heels and said with a smile: "Why is Shangguan Kaizhao coming?"

Shangguan Wan'er was pinching the embroidery cloth in her hand and said, "Don't ask this, I want to ask you, what is this cross stitch?"

"This..." Qin Shaoyou smiled bitterly and said, "Cross stitch is nothing more than painting flowers and birds on cloth like me in advance, and then using needles according to the pattern on the drawing. Use the color of the top of the drawing. Look, it is probably that way, it is very simple."

"But... you are a captain, so you don't train troops, but you are thinking about what you do?"

Qin Shaoyou said: "Where to make money?"

"Making money...this is certainly a way to make money, but...how many can it be made?"

Qin Shaoyou shook his head and sighed, "Do you know how many food households I have here and how many food households in Tuanjie Camp in Henan Road? Most of these people have wives and daughters. If they are allowed to sit at home, they can be a girl, but after all, they are just earning a little money to subsidize their household income. But I summoned them all together. In the past, they embroidered, just ordinary embroidery, and they can't embroider many paintings in the year. How much money can they sell. There are three reasons here. Do you want to listen?"

Shangguan Wan'er had no choice but to say, "Tell me, let me see."

Qin Shaoyou said: "First, they are not full-time, and they are difficult to get familiar with each other. So, they are busy and occasionally take a break and stab each other a few more times. Shangguan Kaizhao thought about it. The things in this world are mostly practiced and make perfect. The skills of full-time and leisure are completely different. Just like the former united camp, if you don't practice, you can have some combat power when you are free. Once you practice it for a full-time job, you can't speak the same way. In the past, you can only stab a few pieces in a few pieces, sometimes using them for use, and you can't sell the extras. But now, gathering them together day after day embroidery, the skills and speed are very different. The past type of embroidery can be more than thirty pieces in a year, and the output can be increased ten times."

Shangguan Wan'er smiled and said, "There are still there."

Qin Shaoyou said again: "But this alone is not enough, so I tinkered with this cross stitch. Cross stitch is different from ordinary embroidery. The usual embroidery is the embroidery you want, while cross stitch is embroidered according to the pattern on the cloth. There is no need to consider the layout, no need to consider what to embroidery, no need to think about what thread or what method to use, just step by step. In this way, the output can be increased several times, and the same pair of embroidery. In the past, the embroidery could embroider thirty pieces a year with work day and night, and this cross stitch could be embroidered hundreds of pieces by one person. What does Shangguan Kaizhao think?"

Shangguan Wan'er couldn't help but nod: "It seems that there is some truth. This cross stitch is indeed much simpler."

Qin Shaoyou smiled and said, "This third point is the most important thing. Usually a woman stays in her home and becomes a female red based on her own imagination. After all, their vision is very limited. I have seen many women's embroidery. How can I say that the patterns on this are really nothing new, and many are even ridiculous. Can this be sold at the price alone? After all, most of the people who buy embroidery are wealthy families. The things they like are not the patterns drawn by your villagers? This cross stitch is different. I specially hired a painter to conceive the latest patterns, and then asked the painter to paint them on this cross stitch so that the women can thread needles and thread them step by step. Please ask Shangguan Dizhao to think about whether the new things in this way are more loved by people?"

Qin Shaoyou revealed a very simple truth, nothing more than that in a closed environment, these women have limited vision and imagination, but the families who consume embroidery are often wealthy families, and they can like you? It’s like, in later generations, a group of people from the mountains cut their clothes, and these people have never been out of the mountains. Do you still expect the style of clothes they cut can be favored by rich families? If you make a pair of liberation shoes, do you want to sell them for a high price?
