The middle-aged proprietress revealed a bitter smile once more.
"Incredible, isn't it? In this day and age, there are still people who dye cloth by hand."
The young man solemnly nodded in agreement.
Today, hand-dyeing cloth is indeed a hard thing to comprehend. Ever since the V.E Company, who boasted about 'serving from birth to death, delivered right to your doorstep', came into existence, it has become challenging to find traditionally hand-dyed fabrics in the market. Whether it's production or cost, hand-made goods simply cannot compete with the cheap, mass-produced products churned out by industrial assembly lines. Add some other factors, and nowadays, everything sold in the market is either manufactured by V.E or has a profound connection with the V.E Company.
