章節 13: Chapter 13
Shen Lang hadn't come out yet, but the purple silk dyed by the Xu family had already been placed on the table.
At this moment, the entire hall was lit with dozens of candles, making it as bright as day.
Under the illumination of the countless candles, the purple silk was particularly eye-catching.
The Xu family's most outstanding dyer bowed and said, "Master, Miss, this is our new purple dye. It's no longer a mixture of blue and red, but extracted from a type of purple grass. We've always strived for perfection, so we haven't put it on the market yet. However, the dyeing effect is much better than before. "
Xu, Lin Mo, and the others all looked at the purple silk in front of the candles.
It was indeed much more vivid, a qualitative leap from the previous purple dye.
Not only was the color much purer, but it was also much brighter. This was truly an excellent new purple dye. The Xu family was going to make a fortune again.
The young prison official carefully examined the silk in his hands and had to admit that this new purple dye was indeed excellent. Although he wasn't a noble, he was still from a prestigious family. He was especially fond of purple brocade and was very good at appreciating it.
Xu Qianqian said, "Artisan Xu, tell the lords about the new golden dye."
The Xu family's most outstanding dyer said, "Reporting to the lords, this lowly one's family has been doing dye work for generations, and this lowly one has loved to study it since childhood. In particular, yellow is specially made for the Monarch, so this lowly one has invested most of his energy into yellow and purple. I've experimented with over a hundred types of raw materials, and huai rice is one of them. This lowly one's original records are here as proof. "
With that, he handed over a booklet.
This young official in charge of Xuanwu's prison was one of the several registrars of the City Lord's Mansion.
He took the booklet and flipped through it. Sure enough, it was densely packed with all kinds of experimental recipes, including huai rice. Moreover, the handwriting had been there for some time, so it wasn't fake.
"This Shen Lang used to be the son-in-law of the Xu family. However, because of his low intelligence, he was looked down upon by others. I don't know why, but he actually came to my dye house to take a stroll. When I was experimenting with a new dye, he saw me," the dyer said.
He wasn't completely lying. He did use locust rice to experiment with yellow dye, but he didn't know how to add alum to make it brighter. This was the most important step, and it couldn't be done without it. Because of the process, the color he extracted from the locust rice was not outstanding, so his recipe for the locust rice could be considered a failure.
In the past, Shen Lang often strolled around the dye house, and it was true that he liked to look at these colorful things.
Because of these reasons, Xu and Xu Qianqian were absolutely confident that Shen Lang did not come up with the golden dye formula by himself.
The two of them understood Shen Lang's abilities too well. He was just an imbecile, a good-for-nothing.
Xu said, "Sirs, now that the witness and the material evidence are here, can we arrest him?"
Although he said 'sirs', his eyes were directly staring at the young registrar. If it weren't for this hothead, Shen Lang would have arrested him long ago.
The young official looked at the booklet, then looked at the new purple silk in his hand, and couldn't help but nod.
"It seems that it is true," he said lightly.
"Men, go and capture Shen Lang." The Xu Family's Patriarch shouted.
Then, without waiting for the officials to act, the warriors of the Xu family overstepped their authority and rushed in.
At this time, the door of the backyard was pushed open, and Shen Lang walked out.
Xu said coldly, "Shen Lang, now that the witness and the material evidence are here, you can wait to go to jail!"
Shen Lang immediately looked at the young official, who said lightly, "All the evidence points to you stealing."
Shen Lang looked at the purple silk on the table, and couldn't help but be surprised.
Is this the new purple dye of the Xu family? Compared to before, how much better is it?
The color is very pure, and very bright!
But …
Compared to the purple dye made by Shen Lang using the lichens, there is still a big gap.
The purple dye made by the purple grass is too monotonous, and a little pale, without spiritual energy.
Shen Lang suddenly said with a smile, "Xu Qianqian, this purple silk in front of us is really the highest level of your Xu family, right? You definitely didn't hide anything! "
"No." Xu Qianqian said, "Shen Lang, unless the purple dye you make is better than my family's, you are still a shameless thief. Not only did you steal the golden dye formula, but you also stole the new purple dye formula. It is really hard to guard against a thief in the family!"
Without saying a word, Shen Lang took out the purple silk he dyed and placed it in front of everyone!
In an instant, Xu and Lin Mo's eyes suddenly lit up. The two showed an expression of disbelief at first, and then their eyes became extremely greedy.
The most terrible thing about anything is comparison.
Just looking at the purple silk of the Xu family, they thought it was good, but at this time, compared with the purple silk dyed by Shen Lang, the gap is completely obvious.
Although the silk dyed by the Xu family is very pure purple, it is too thin, cheap and gaudy.
However, the purple dyed by Shen Lang is deep and smart, completely not on the same level.
There is no need to judge the winner at all, it is completely obvious who is better at a glance.
Shen Lang sneered, "Xu, Xu Qianqian, my new purple dye is not stolen from your family again, is it?"
Xu and Xu Qianqian can't help but look at each other, extremely surprised.
What is going on?
Shen Lang has been living in her family for a few months, she knows him best. He is mentally retarded, ignorant and incompetent, a complete waste who knows nothing.
The reason why he can take out the golden dye formula before is entirely because he saw the countless experiments of the craftsman, plus the extremely accidental discovery of this kind of locust rice mixed with alum, will produce a bright yellow color.
This kind of thing is very coincidental, but also very normal.
In the past hundreds of years, who knows how many brand new dye formulas were accidentally discovered.
Therefore, this competition should be won for sure.
Originally, the Xu family could directly use their connections and martial artists to directly arrest Shen Lang and put him in prison, but this young registrar is actually a hothead, he actually spoke up to stop it, and insisted on giving Shen Lang a chance to defend himself. Of course, the Xu family is not afraid of a registrar, but the other party is also considered to be from a prestigious family, and is in charge of the prison, today's matter can be considered as the home court of the registrar.
Therefore, the Xu family has to give Shen Lang a chance to compete, and Xu Qianqian knows Shen Lang too well, he absolutely can't win.
Xu Qianqian's idea was originally right, but she has no idea that the previous stupid Shen Lang is already dead, and the Shen Lang in front of her is the soul of an earthling who time-traveled to this world.
Shen Lang sneered, "Could it be that the color of this piece of silk isn't clear enough? Then what about this one? "
Then, he took out his trump card, the rainbow silk!
Under the illumination of the countless candlelight, the rainbow silk was magnificent and breathtaking.
Everyone sucked in a breath of cold air!
How is this possible?
It is too gorgeous, too spiritual.
It is colorful, but not the slightest bit gaudy, and the key point is that the transition of color is so natural.
If it was said that the violet colored silk Shen Lang took out earlier was a great victory, then this brand new rainbow colored silk completely crushed it, and it caused the violet colored silk of the Xu Clan to seem extremely tacky and unsightly.
Shen Lang asked with a smile, "Xu, Xu Qianqian, did I also steal the new dye formula of my rainbow silk from the Xu family?"
There seems to be a slap in the face in the air.
Xu and Xu Qianqian look at Shen Lang in surprise.
Did they miss something for this son-in-law?
He is so proficient in dyeing, why doesn't Xu Qianqian know anything about it?
This kind of dyeing technique may not be very useful for other families, but it is very useful for the Xu family, which can completely make the Xu family's business rise to a higher level.
In ancient times, silk is almost the same, the key is dyeing.
Once the color technique far surpasses the competitors, the silk and cloth business will be invincible.
They originally thought that Shen Lang is a complete waste, but they didn't expect him to have such a unique and superb skill.
They really didn't expect it!
Shen Lang said to the young official, "Lord Registrar, please uphold justice."
The young bookkeeper looked at the Xu Family's Patriarch and said, "Please confirm if Shen Lang stole the purple dye and the rainbow silk dye from the Xu Family?"
Instantly, Xu's face twitched.
This young official registrar was really a hothead. When he left the City Lord's Mansion, didn't his superior give him an obvious hint?
Xu Qianqian's fiancé is the Prefectural Governor's son, do you want to lose your future by offending the Zhang family?
Patriarch Xu glanced at the young registrar with resentment in his heart. He really wanted to drive him away and dismiss him.
But that also needs to be done behind the scenes, or at least the Prefectural Governor. Moreover, as a businessman, he can't be rude to a registrar.
"No!" Xu said coldly.
The young registrar looked at Xu Qianqian and said, "Miss Xu, what do you think? Did Shen Lang steal the formula for the purple dye and the rainbow dye from your house? "
Xu Qianqian's beautiful eyes narrowed. She could see that this young registrar is not only a hothead, but he is also hostile to the Xu family.
Does he have a grudge against the Xu family? Or does he have a grudge against Zhang Jin?
How dare this young registrar go against the Prefectural Governor's in-laws?
"No." Xu Qianqian said indifferently.
"Since that's not the case, then Shen Lang is innocent." The young Registrar Official said, "Patriarch Xu, Young Miss Xu, please apologize to Shen Lang!"
Xu was about to explode with anger. He snorted coldly, swung his sleeves and left directly.
Xu Qianqian's expression changed a few times, and then she bowed slightly to Shen Lang and said, "I'm sorry, because of some misunderstandings before, so I have wronged you. Goodbye!"
Then, her graceful figure also left leisurely.
She had decided to ask Zhang Jin to take revenge on this young registrar after going back. No officials who are hostile to the Xu family are allowed to exist in Xuanwu City.
After Xu Qianqian left.
Shen Lang bowed to the young registrar and said, "Thank you, registrar. Long time no see. How are you? How are you these years? How is Miss Jin of Xuan Wu Mansion? "
