The Shen family was once one of the leading weaving families in Gusu, and was well-known in the north and south for its ice flower damask.
But once the family's fortunes declined, the clan leader became ignorant, the clan became disloyal, the weaving tree was incomplete, and the workshop was mortgaged, the Lingluo skills passed down from generation to generation were about to be buried in the dust.
Shen Yunzhi was an orphan from a nearby family. She had been living in the care of others since she was a child, and was looked down upon by her direct relatives.
Everyone said that Shen's skills were cut off and it would be difficult to regain his reputation.
He was the only one holding on to half of the damaged book of music, guarding an old loom, and picking up fire in the dust.
Reeling and refining silk, trying weaving on machines, breaking threads, dyeing them, dismantling them and starting over again thousands of times;
Internally, it reconciles suspicions and disputes among various houses, and externally, it resists strife among peers and exploitation by officials.
Everyone just hopes to recreate the ancestor Binghua Ling and keep a trace of their remaining career.
Shen Yun has a long-term plan in mind: the old skills can only be tolerated, and only by opening up new realms can the family reputation be forever revitalized.
After years of hard work, he weaved an unprecedented brocade - Liuyun Tianjin.
The brocade vein that had been broken for hundreds of years was restored, the scattered tribesmen returned to the ancestral hall, and the Shen family once again stood at the top of Jiangnan weaving.
But when the prosperity returned, he quietly listened to the sound of machines in the hall and understood in his heart:
Skills can still be innovated and reinvented, but the greed of the human heart keeps reincarnating.
It is difficult to revitalize the country, but it is even more difficult to maintain the family business for a long time.
Intention: Technological innovation can revive a family business, and only by preserving people's hearts can a family continue to grow; wealth can easily lead to greed, and the rise and fall of a family will eventually cycle. Reviving is never the end, and keeping a business is far more difficult than starting a business.
