Chapter 76(1/2)
Before he could start on stage, the other side was sentenced to lose.
No wonder the general interpreter's face is so strange.
This made everyone in Tingyun Pavilion stunned. After a long time, Tingyun Pavilion instantly boiled and looked at each other.
Many people were puzzled and subconsciously looked at Chu Yu.
Chu Yu seemed to be missing, and his eyes were only stopped on the embroidery picture on the stage. Perhaps most of the people present might not know what it was.
But she knew very well that they were the highest gods of Christianity, gods from the West, like Buddhas in the East, who were deeply respected and believed in by people.
For example, at this moment, the envoy called Calvin also had an exquisite cross necklace hanging around his neck.
Moreover, from his performance, Lord Calvin is an extremely devout believer.
Gong Shaochen's picture perfectly interprets the characters and pictures in the Bible. If she remembered correctly, the European Bible at this time was not as good as everyone's hand in it. Such an exquisite and lifelike and gorgeous Bible figure picture is roughly equivalent to a holy object in the eyes of these Westerners.
So she could understand why the envoy was so excited.
Not to mention the sacred meaning, just saying that this thing will be taken back to Her Majesty the Queen or presented to the Bishop, you will probably receive a great reward.
Chu Yu sighed lightly with his cheeks held back.
Gong Shaochen is knowledgeable, and it has to be said that this person is indeed extremely sensitive and unique.
She looked at Gong Shaochen, and saw that he was shaking the feather fan in his hand and looking at her direction with a smile. When she saw her looking over, she threw a charming look at her.
Chu Yu rolled his eyes directly and saw that he smiled even happier.
"How about it, but I still have the confidence to win?" Aunt Jin looked at Chu Yu with a side face and asked in a low voice, but her face was calm and not as suffocating as the rest of the Qinxue people.
Chu Yu said lightly: "I have never had the confidence to win, but I always have to make a big splash, I'm afraid I'll have to bother His Highness."
After saying that, she turned to look in the direction of Prince Lian, made a bitter face, then folded her hands together, and made a gesture of asking for the gods.
Sure enough, Prince Lian looked in Chu Yu's direction as confused as everyone. Suddenly, he saw the little girl turn to look at him, and he did not care about his superiority and inferiority, and then he made that small appearance. He couldn't help but raise his lips and laughed: "This little girl is really not looking at the occasion."
But Prince Lian was already tired of the politeness and humility. When he saw Chu Yu as "no distinction between superiority and inferiority", he only felt that the innocent and cute little girl was full of the little girl, just like her little daughter who had not yet married at home, so interesting.
"Well, it would be boring if you just conclude a big competition like this."
After hearing Prince Lian’s smile, the prince turned to look at the English envoy Calvin beside him and said with a smile: “Encourt, why are you so anxious to draw a conclusion? Even if you are a villain who kills people in our court, you will have to be heard before the execution of the decree, and you will have a chance to defend him.”
Calvin heard the words of the translator beside him, touching his big belly and hesitating a little: "But I think nothing is better than the Lord's offer..."
Prince Lian touched his beard and smiled: "Since someone in my dynasty can give you something praises, how can you know that there will be no one that will open your eyes and be more satisfied?"
When Calvin heard this, his gray eyes lit up and he nodded with a smile: "What Your Highness said is that I am too anxious."
As soon as the general translator finished translating this, all the people in Yunge, except for the people from Xiangnan Xiuxing, were relieved.
Gong Shaochen was calm and calm. He only looked at Chu Yu, smiled and gave a thumbs up, and said silently - You are amazing.
Chu Yu raised his eyebrows, sneered lightly, and pointed his thumb down - Cheng Rang.
After Mr. Heron briefly introduced it to the envoys and merchants, she stood up and went up.
"Thank you, the envoy, for your willingness to give your little girl a chance to show it. I hope I will not let you down." After Chu Yu went up, he smiled directly and performed a Western-style skirt-raising semi-curtsy.
When he came to a foreign country and saw strange people performing their familiar etiquette, the envoys and merchants suddenly lit up, and he developed a subtle first glance at the girl on the stage.
Chu Yu raised his hand, and then a dozen qin scholars each held an embroidered scroll and went to the stage.
Afterwards, she did not have any fancy movements or music, and only signaled the servants to unfold the embroidered scrolls in turn, revealing the pattern on it.
Everyone held their breath, stared at each other and looked at it, and couldn't help but make a little disappointed voice: "Hey?"
What is this? It's just ordinary, barely considered an exquisite embroidery
Even Calvin, who does not understand oriental embroidery, can see that the quality of these things can only be considered average, let alone the embroidery picture that Gong Shaochen just showed, which almost exudes holy light.
He immediately did not hide the disappointment on his face at all: "Miss, what you showed is not so clever, it is really disappointing. If you just showed these things, I don't think we all have to waste time."
As soon as the general translator finished translating the envoy's words, everyone was in an instant and they all whispered.
Chu Yu lost one game, which made people feel that her first game was just a lucky draw. Now there seems to be no hope of winning in these two big bets. And to present such second-rate embroidery in front of foreign envoys, it was simply a slap in the face of Qin Xue Embroidery Sect, which is still the world's best embroidered plaque.
How can this not make everyone in Qinxue feel both disappointed and humiliated?
"This is simply embarrassing to the other end of the sea..."
"It's true, I still believed in her cleverness so much at the beginning..."
"It's true that I'm ignorant!"
"The faces of our Qinxue, and all the faces of our students have been thrown away by her!"
“….”
Chu Yu seemed to have no idea of the disappointment and angry look of everyone, and only smiled and introduced his embroidery to the envoys and merchants.
"Your Excellency, please don't worry. Let me introduce my embroidery. The embroidery pictures I have here include flowers, birds, fish, insects, landscapes, figures, and other patterns of different sizes, which can meet the various needs of merchants for my Zhongyuan embroidery."
As Chu Yu finished speaking, Gong Shaochen in the audience couldn't help but chuckled: "Little girl, are you planning to sell your embroidery here? But all our embroidery stores, even the least elaborate ones, can be provided, right?"
As soon as Gong Shaochen finished speaking, everyone in the Hunan Embroidery Story laughed and even took the opportunity to humiliate everyone in the Jiangnan Embroidery Story.
"Ah haha, we can use more embroidery than this."
"That's right, how can you take this kind of embroidery?"
"Is this the so-called world's number one embroidery?"
"The embroidery journey in Jiangnan is just a false reputation."
"……Hahaha."
The faces of the masters of the major embroidery businesses in Jiangnan were gloomy, and they felt that they could not swallow it and could not vomit it out. They all turned red and cast annoyed eyes at Chu Yu, Aunt Jin and others.
Chu Yu also smiled and nodded, "Yes, you can come up with better embroidery than me."
She paused, then raised her eyes and smiled at the Western envoys and merchants sitting on the stage, saying, "But the things I show you are the things that we embroidered within four days of a hundred people in embroidery."
After saying that, she raised her hand again and saw four servants dragging two carts of embroidery into Tingyun Pavilion.
Everyone's eyes were all aimed at the big cart embroidery behind Chu Yu, and their eyes widened almost in disbelief.
No one knows that the most effort in spinning, weaving, dyeing, printing, and embroidery is embroidery. Only the effort spent on weaving Shu brocade can compete with the best.
Especially the large size and high precision embroidery took three years and was not surprising. The wedding dress used by the emperor in the wedding that year was made by the best embroiderer in Qinxue embroidery for three years.
What are the two big carts of things she embroidered within four days?
Everyone was uproaring, while Gong Shaochen narrowed his eyes slightly, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.
Anyone who has done a trading transaction can realize what such speed and output rate means.
Even those embroidery looks just ordinary...
All the Western merchants whispered to each other after listening to the translation.
"Impossible!" A Xiangnan embroidery master looked at the excited expression of the Westerners beside him. He could no longer hold back and sternly said regardless of etiquette: "You are lying!"
The people who echoed immediately stood up and accused Chu Yu of lying.
Chu Yu didn't bother to pay attention to them, so he just looked at the Western envoys sitting in the stands with deaf ears: "Don't you know what you guys want to ask?"
In addition to his duke, Calvin was selected as the envoy for this mission, but also because he was half a Zhongyuan. At this moment, his gray eyes flashed: "Beautiful lady, please forgive me for my recklessness just now. Are these embroidery really embroidered by your hundred workers in four days?"
Chu Yu nodded and smiled without changing his face: "That's right."
She paused and signaled that the last servant behind her who had not unfolded the embroidery scroll to unfold the embroidery scroll.
As soon as the servant unfolded the embroidered scroll, everyone in Yun Pavilion couldn't help but breathe: "It's actually... it's that kind of strange painting!"
That's right, Chu Yu's last embroidery scroll is also a classic picture from the Western Bible - the Last Supper of Christ and the Twelve Disciples.
Although her embroidery pictures are not as exquisite as Gong Shaochen and the brilliant and gorgeous as gold and silver threads, they are also considered exquisite.
"You have seen this, our Qinxue Embroidery Workshop can also provide such a picture scroll."
The embroidered scroll that can present the Lord God has opened its eyes to the Westerners, and Chu Yu, this scroll that is so exquisite that it even appears in the Bible, made Calvin and others feel a strange sense of pleasure of being respected and respected for no reason.
He couldn't help but nodded, touched his big belly and laughed: "This lady seems to know our religion very well."
Chu Yu smiled slightly: "All religions and gods that advocate compassion and fraternity and tolerance are worthy of respect and respect."
Although she didn't quite understand why the folk customs she was in was more than the openness of the Tang Dynasty, her productivity was equivalent to that of the powerful empire of the Ming Dynasty. She had already had diplomatic relations with countries on the other side of the ocean, and she didn't know whether there was a Renaissance and religious revolution in the countries on the other side of the ocean at this moment.
But when she saw the cross, she was convinced that Christ must be their Lord God and that the Bible must exist. After checking Aunt Jin, it was true.
So she also made the corresponding embroidery scroll preparations, but she didn't expect that Gong Shaochen had a similar idea with her. It can be seen that this person is well-informed and has a broad vision.
She glanced at Gong Shaochen from the corner of her eyes, but saw him looking straight at her, the light in the enchanting eyes of the phoenix was deep and unpredictable.
Chu Yu's words obviously pleased Calvin. He touched his big belly and stood up with a laugh: "May the Lord be with you and me, this lady, your work has indeed surprise us, but the work of that Excellency is also very wonderful, we need to discuss the results."
Chu Yu bowed slightly and raised his voice and smiled a little: "Please take care of yourself, but the little girl would like to remind you again that this gorgeous work of Mr. Gong Shaochen embroidered by gold and silver thread can also be provided by our piano science. We can supply any embroidery of fineness, size, size, and pattern you need to provide to your country's mission in the shortest time. No one in the world can produce more and faster than ours, and have a more unified quality."
As soon as this statement was spoken and the translator finished translating, all the Western merchants were instantly excited and they all started to talk loudly.
Their time to come to this foreign country is limited, so they naturally hope to get more goods in the shortest time to return home, not to mention that the other party can promise a unified quality.
In business, some of them came to Zhongyuan ten years ago, and naturally some of them were cheated in the purchase of goods.
