Chapter 4 Assistant Daisy

"Your Majesty." Duke Keith walked in.

Augustus VI looked at the man he hated the most, but still maintained a simple smile on his face, like a playboy with a weak mind.

"Duke, you are here just right. Come and take a look. I got a very beautiful clothes drawing today!" Augustus VI was happy now, like a fat man with a height of 200 pounds.

"I won't watch it." But Duke Kees was indifferent and waved his hand and refused, "Your Majesty, now the treasury is missing again. Do you think you will increase the tax?"

"Tax? OK, making beautiful clothes for me is the top priority. You can do this. By the way, Duke, my new tailor said that it will be ready in five days. I want to hold a banquet in six days, and then all the ministers will come to appreciate it. What do you think?"

The Duke of Kiss bowed perfunctorily and slightly: "My Majesty, you are the king of this country. You must hold a banquet. I will prepare it for Your Majesty."

"That's great! Everyone will definitely like my clothes when the time comes!" Augustus VI clenched his fists and waved it in the air, but then he thought of something: "Duke, the two tailor masters you have found have been making clothes for half a month. Let's go and have a look?"

The Duke of Keith really disliked Augustus. If it were other requests, he would definitely refuse it completely, but that's it.

"Okay." Duke Kees sneered in his heart.

Looking at the other side, Chen Chu was taken to take a shower and change clothes by Charles. After some cleaning, Chen Chu wore new clothes neatly stacked. The inside was a kind of underwear that looked a bit like fine linen fabric. The outside was an open-clad top with the front closure in two pieces, which was quite comfortable to wear.

I just have a pair of trousers, so I feel a little uncomfortable when I wear it.

A little swaying

After walking out of the bathroom, Charles was waiting outside, and there was a girl who looked in her early twenties next to her.

Seeing the other party come out, Charles suddenly had a bright look. Unexpectedly, after George took a shower and changed into new clothes, he looked so handsome. He really relied on clothes and horses rely on saddles.

Even the girl next to him looked at Chen Chu boldly, and the slightest displeasure in his heart disappeared.

Lord Charles just told her to be an assistant to a new master. She was a little unhappy, but now she would be anxious if she didn't let her be an assistant.

As expected, no matter what world it is, it depends on your face.

It’s a pity that although her skills are good and her hands are relatively fast, her innovation ability is poor and she can’t make new clothes, so she has always been in a position of being up and down in the palace.

"This is the assistant assigned to you by Your Majesty, named Daisy." Charles introduced Chen Chu, then turned to look at Daisy: "During this time, you have followed George. He is a master. Even His Majesty praised the design drawings."

"Yes, Lord Charles." Daisy nodded and said softly, then looked at Chen Chu curiously. Chen Chu looked younger than him. No matter how he looked, he didn't look like a master, but none of these matters.

After Charles left, Daisy took Chen Chu to the weaving room. The interior was cleaned spotlessly, with all kinds of fabrics and all kinds of furniture. It seemed that he would live here for at least a long time.

Chen Chu saw at a glance the loom in the middle, which was a bit different from the ancient Chinese ones, but in general, the functions were similar.

Chen Chu can't use this, and if he has a sewing machine, he can still use it himself.

"Master, what are we going to do?" Daisy asked with some blushing eyes when she was thinking.

"I'll draw it for you."

Chen Chu took a piece of paper and first drew a rough style. This was just a coat, or a burqa that could be used as a cloak. The difficulty lies in the lion embroidery behind the back, the embroidery of the neckline and cuffs.

It took about ten minutes to draw, Chen Chu realized that he didn't know the size. He wanted to measure it, but Daisy directly said that the tailor knew the emperor's various shoulder width and waist sizes. After all, he made clothes for the emperor in the palace, so it was not surprising that he knew these things very well.

After all, the emperor is either changing clothes or on the way to change clothes every day, so there is no time to measure clothes with you every day.

"A variety of sizes?" Chen Chu thought to himself, without saying anything.

This time, the time is tight and the task is heavy. Chen Chu only has five days, but today should not count. If you add it, it will be five and a half days.

Leave the sewing of other parts to Daisy, and Chen Chu specializes in lion embroidery.

Chen Chu planned to use three-dimensional embroidery, which would make the pattern in the middle look more textured and more realistic. Although this would be more difficult, the effect was by no means comparable to ordinary cross stitches.

Although Chen Chu's design drawings are still with the king, Chen Chu doesn't plan to ask for them today. He works overtime tonight and strives to get the general outline first.

If Daisy can get the general style of the clothes, Chen Chu will consider teaching her some other embroidery methods tomorrow.

It’s not that he looks down on the embroidery craftsmanship of this era. Chen Chu can only say that as far as he masters the dozens of embroidery techniques nowadays, the tailors in the medieval era are all spicy chickens.

"Your Majesty, you're here." Here, Duke Kees brought Augustus sixty to a room. The facilities were basically the same as those where Chen Chu was. There were many such rooms in the palace, including tailor masters invited from the people or recommended by themselves.

Augustus couldn't wait to walk into the room at sixty, but saw two people busy inside the room. But strangely, there was nothing on the loom of the two people here, they were just idling there.

Augustus's face pulled down: "You have asked for so many treasures, but you did nothing? Duke quickly punish them!"

But Duke Kees' expression on his face was indeed very surprised: "Your Majesty, what are you talking about? The two of them have obviously completed most of it." As he said that, several stunning expressions appeared on Duke Kees's face: "Oh, God, this is simply a work of art!"

"But there is nothing on it, they clearly say that they can weave the most beautiful cloth in the world." Augustus whispered, but he still looked at Duke Kees's face and didn't dare to speak loudly. He pinched his sleeves and looked like a thirty-year-old child who dared not speak out.

At this time, the short and thin man among the two tailors also explained: "Your Majesty, we are not lying. This is indeed the most beautiful dress in the world. Whether it is patterns or exquisiteness, it is unique in the world. However, this fabric has a characteristic, that is, no one who is foolish or incompetent can see this dress."

After saying that, another tall and thin tailor companion nodded seriously and said that it was indeed the case.

Augustus sneered in his heart, but the expression on his face became even more panicked. He pulled Duke Keith aside and asked in a low voice: "Duke, can you really see this dress?"

"Of course, my Majesty." Duke Kees showed a look of course.

Looking at the empty loom, and then at the Duke of Keis and the two tailors who looked unremarkable, Augustus seemed to have confirmed something, turned around and waved his hand, and said with confidence: "Yes, this dress is really beautiful. I said that just now, the purpose is to see if I trust the Duke of Keis the most intelligent person, that's right!" After saying that, he did not forget to add to strengthen his confidence.

"Your Majesty is wise, of course your Majesty is the smartest and competent person in the world." The two liar tailors did not forget to flatter.

In the evening, Augustus VI returned to the bedroom as usual and changed into a brand new and exquisite pajamas. The woman Chen Chu had seen during the day was leaning on the bed reading a book in her clothes half-exposed.

Augustus VI walked over and put his hand on the other person's smooth shoulders, which were as if he was about to say something, but before he could say anything, he heard the other person say coldly: "Let go! Don't touch me with your greasy dirty hands!"

Augustus's hand retracted like an electric shock, then retreated back to the edge of the bed, lifted the quilt close to the edge of the bed, and lie in timidly.

Muttering in a low voice like a wronged child: "I know, I know, I just don't touch you, why are you doing so fiercely?"

This is Augustus VI's life a day.

The emperor was forced to live an ascetic life, but the situation on Chen Chu was very different.

During the day, Chen Chu roughly outlined the pattern of the lion on the fabric. At night, he lit the oil lamp and worked overtime, and first used black thread to sew out the outline of the outermost edge using cross-stitch.

It was already late at night. Daisy was watching Chen Chu with her chin holding her eyes openly, especially when she saw Chen Chu seriously hand-painting the image of a very realistic lion on the fabric, her eyes shining even better.

"Oh, damn, why is this man so charming!"

She should have already fallen asleep at this time, but when she saw Chen Chu working overtime, she stayed, saying that she wanted to work together, but she didn't say that she wanted to do something else besides working overtime.

Chen Chu saw that Daisy had already processed the collar, sleeves, and cuffs, leaving only some embroidery decoration on it. Although Chen Chu didn't need too much jewelry before, he still had to use some more, such as the eyes of a lion, and the middle part of the patterned petals.

"Okay, Daisy, go back and rest." Chen Chu stretched, and the male hormone breath pounced on Daisy's face, but he didn't get to that point: "You have done well. Come here early tomorrow. I will teach you some needlework and embroidery methods. If you can learn it, I will also give you the embroidery part of the collar and cuffs."
