47 Mr. Taylor the tailor (2/2)
When chief Harvard mention about my clothes, mister Taylor like being reminded and come closer to me to see my clothes. He rubs the shirt that I'm currently using, the jacket and the trouser too, which make me somehow scared with his enthusiasm.
”Yes, you right chief. This young master is using a cloth that I never see before. The texture is so smooth and neat like silk but it's not silk, only nobles can wear this kind of clothes in this world. And you say that made from this?”
Mr. Taylor ask chief Harvard while pointing the cotton bud in his hand
”Yes, you interested?”
”Of course! Give me more of this and will make you clothes that may be close to that young master currently wears”
”Ehem, mister Taylor, excuse me to interrupt you. This thing called cotton, and it can be cultivated here. I wonder if Mr. Taylor interested to cultivated this cotton here”
”This can be planted here? And I can have this cotton as much as I want?”
”Sure, I'm planning to recruit more people to live here and make this cotton plantation here. But you also must have more people to help you make clothes. So when this plan going to implemented, I want you to supervise this cotton plantation and clothes production. Can you handle that Taylor?”
”Leave that to me, chief Harvard. Do you still have more of this cotton? I want to learn it characteristic”
”Here, you can have it all. also when we go to the beach again you can come along to see this cotton tree. How about that?”
Chief Harvard handed Mr. Taylor all the cotton bud that he brings in his bag. Mr. Taylor accept it with glimmering eyes
”Yes...Yes... Count me in when you go there, chief Harvard”
”Okay Taylor, we've done here. I hope you can use that cotton wisely”
After that, we leave Mr. Taylor house and heading to the place that carpenter and earthware maker lives. In there I only buy some boxes and pot to make the soap. All expenses, of course, will paid by chief Harvard later. With those things in my hand, we return to chief Harvard house because all our agenda today has been done.
