Yang's Tea Building is now the highest-end commercial building in the Tang Dynasty.

Dongshi, which was once more frequented by the children of noble families, is now no longer as good as the Yang Family Tea Industry Building.

Gu Panpan and Wu Meiniang walked around the workshop city and finally stopped at the Yang Family Tea Building.

Shopping is a favorite sport for women of no matter what era.

If you ask them to run and do exercise, people will feel that they may be tired here and there, and they will not want to move for a while.

But if you ask them to go shopping, you will find that they are physically better than you.

You feel sore waist and legs, but they are still very excited.

Even if you don’t buy anything, it won’t delay others’ interest.

The difference between this man and a woman is quite big.

Whether it is Gu Panpan or Wu Meiniang, there is naturally nothing missing.

But it does not mean that they are just walking around in the Yang's Tea Building.

On the contrary, they were wandering around one ready-to-wear shop after another.

"Panpan, I found that the styles of the clothes sold by your Gu's ready-to-wear shop are relatively novel. Especially those new styles, whether they are dresses or trousers, are unique. No wonder your shop's business is so good, and it has surpassed Zixia ready-to-wear shop."

Wu Meiniang's eyes are definitely OK.

I just wandered around and tried a few clothes, and felt the differences between different shops.

It is undeniable that due to the patent for the appearance of clothes, the Royal Patent Office of the Tang Dynasty did not accept it.

So once someone has a good-looking style, other homes will follow up soon.

Of course, most people still need to be more and more serious and will do some micro-innovation.

You must be the main color of blue, so I will be the main color of purple.

You must have embroidered a peony flower, so I will change it to Shanghai Tanghua.

Anyway, if you really look at it, the two clothes are a little different.

"There is no way, it's not what your prince said. In addition to the basic condition of quality, the most important thing in making ready-made clothing shops is the style. Only novel styles can attract more high-end customers and leave other shops behind.

In the past year, I have been working hard on this aspect. The garment workshop has even recruited several talented scholars to be responsible for part of the design work. Sometimes I will personally help design some clothes.

Of course, the easiest thing is to go around your King of Chu’s Mansion to see what styles of clothes you are wearing, what other people have worn in the styles of clothes I have never seen before, and then just move them over."

Gu Panpan did not shy away from it at all and said that many of his clothes were imitating the Chu King's Mansion.

"This shop is divided into men's clothing areas and women's clothing areas. I think this is actually quite important. Especially for high-end clothing sales, people often come from women from noble families. If they feel it is a bit embarrassing to buy clothes in the shop, the business will not be able to continue."

"Hehe, this is also learned from your ready-to-wear shop in the King of Chu Mansion. I am going to open a bigger flagship store next, not only distinguishing between male and female areas, but also preparing a separate area for children."

Gu Panpan followed Wu Meiniang in a happy mood and walked around her shop.

However, her good mood did not last long and was interrupted by a servant who looked hurried.

"Miss Gu, I finally found you. Go to the ready-to-wear workshop, something happened there!"

The servants of the Gu family finally found their own family and breathed a sigh of relief.

"What happened to the garment workshop? What happened?"

When Gu Panpan saw the panting servant, he felt a little bad premonition in his heart.

Is it a fire?

The ready-to-wear workshops are filled with various cloths and clothes that are prone to fire. Once a fire occurs, the fire will be difficult to control.

Gu Panpan has always put forward relatively high requirements for fire prevention.

Equipment like lighters are absolutely forbidden to be carried into the garment workshop.

Have you been on guard against it, but haven’t you been defended?

Gu Panpan's face suddenly became unfavorable.

Such a large workshop, if there is a fire, there will definitely be heavy casualties.

It is estimated that their Gu's garment workshop will make the headlines the next day.

"It's dead! Something happened in the workshop!"

"Um?"

"If you don't go back with us, the helpers in the workshop dare not operate the equipment anymore. The situation on the scene is a bit chaotic."

Gu Panpan heard that it was not because of a fire in his workshop, but something else happened.

"Panpan, let's go over and take a look together."

Wu Meiniang naturally had no mood to continue shopping at this time.

So I simply suggest going over and take a look together.

...

Since the Wang family in Taiyuan first applied waterwheels to the production of cotton cloth in Shuozhou, this new processing method has quickly become popular in the Tang Dynasty.

The craftsmen of Guanshishan Academy’s machinery workshop have developed some types of equipment based on this.

Whether it is cotton fabric making or cloth textile, now it is gradually getting rid of pure handmade work.

For example, Gu's ready-to-wear workshops, in addition to using sewing machines in large quantities, they also try to apply some utensils to flatten, cut and clean the cloth.

Although when installing equipment, the craftsmen in the machinery workshop repeatedly reminded them to pay attention to safety.

But no matter how much I say, there are always some accidents.

In the past year, I don’t know how many accidents have occurred in Gu’s clothing shop where the helper’s fingers were injured by a sewing machine.

Several accidents occurred in which the helper's hands were wounded into the equipment and lost his palms directly.

But this is the first time that a female worker's hair is wrapped in by equipment and then pulls her entire head in.

Needless to say, if such a situation occurs, the female worker must have no alcohol.

When Gu Panpan and Wu Meiniang came to the workshop, the entire workshop had already stopped working.

Helpers gathered there to whisper.

At this time, some weaknesses in the management of Gu's garment workshops were reflected.

If there are drills in this area in normal times, most of the positions that have no impact at this time can still be continued.

Of course, Gu Panpan can understand everyone's mood, so when I saw this scene, I didn't say much.

"Have you cleaned up the spot later?"

When Gu Panpan was about to enter the workshop where something was wrong, Wu Meiniang grabbed her arm.

Even if you didn't see that scene with your own eyes, Wu Meiniang could imagine that the scene should be bloody.

A girl like Gu Panpan must have never seen such a scene.

Wu Meiniang felt that there was no need to let Gu Panpan see it.

Don't leave a psychological shadow then, it will not be worth it.

"The concubine, the scene has been cleaned up a little, and a doctor has also invited to come and take a look, but..."

As the butler of the Gu family, Gu Lei had arrived at the scene earlier than Gu Panpan and simply cleaned the scene.

"Okay, let's go in and see what's going on."

After hearing Gu Lei's words, Wu Meiniang breathed a sigh of relief.

"My lady, when this equipment is running, there is a drum constantly rotating. In the past, this equipment was transmitted through the power of the water truck, so the speed was relatively slow. But didn't you say that we should cooperate with the Steam Engine Research Institute of Guanshishan Academy to replace the steam engine and make the equipment rotate faster.

The staff from the Steam Engine Research Institute had just completed the transformation of this equipment. It was not yet three days since then, but something happened. At that time, the helper next to the female worker saw that the worker's hair was curled in and wanted to help pull it out, but the equipment was running very fast and there was no time or strength to pull it out.

It's just a few seconds..."

Gu Lei simply described what happened today.

Wu Meiniang next to her frowned when she heard this.

Steam engines are of great use. In addition to the railways being built and the sea boats that have not yet begun to try, they are also used as motivation for various workshops.

Gu Panpan was very supportive of Li Kuan's affairs, so after listening to Li Kuan's speech on the Tang Dynasty Royal Science and Technology Awards Ceremony, she immediately asked her workshop to cooperate with the Steam Engine Research Institute, and first tried the use of steam engines in her own workshop.

At the beginning, everything went very smoothly and the productivity was indeed improved a lot.

Who knew something happened just a few days later?

This is not a good sign.

Although the reason for the accident may be that the female worker did not pay attention and put her hair into the equipment.

But others won't understand it so.

They only think that the equipment used by the steam engine is a machine that can eat people.

Before this, even if something happened, it would not have hurt his life.
