The main core of the design of clothing is two.

One, the process of expressing the curvy beauty of the human body.

Second, the process of rational color matching.

Especially women's clothing, what type of clothing is the most popular in Zhou Ming's world?

Long and short skirts, pleated skirts, dresses, princess dresses, fringed skirts, sundresses, pullover skirts, etc., are common with waist-cinching designs...... The more common feature of these skirts is that they highlight the graceful figure of women and highlight their proud curves.

There are also stockings and high heels that set off women's beautiful legs, the temptation of these two things does not need to be said, it is estimated that when someone heard these four words, they began to think about it, and their nostrils bled out.

High heels are not difficult to make, if stockings can be developed, Zhou Ming is estimated to make a fortune.

It's just that the high-elasticity material for making stockings needs to be synthesized by industrial methods, and ordinary velvet and other materials can also be used to make stockings, but the thickness is difficult to make thin.

Zhou Ming didn't have much strength in his hands, so he would be overjoyed to investigate this aspect, and if he could find a natural material with high elasticity, high toughness and lightness for the production of stockings.

But he didn't think about it for the time being, he didn't have stockings, and relied on various styles of skirts, underwear, women's shoes, and bags...... In this world's aristocratic clothing market, he contracted.

Because he has more than a million sets of clothing style design drawings in his hands...... Not enough can look for artificial intelligence design.

Of course, half a step ahead is a genius, and one step ahead is a weirdo, and it is impossible for Zhou Ming to directly apply the clothes whose style is becoming more and more exposed to this still relatively conservative plane...... He had to make some changes based on localization.

On the basis of local clothing, make some bold innovations.

So Zhou Ming took Lina to a clothing store specializing in aristocratic costumes and bought many sets of skirts and shoes that were often more than 100 or 300 gold coins.

Then I went to the fabric store to buy some high-end fabrics, and when I returned to the apartment, Zhou Ming began to take Lina to do research.

Regarding clothing, Zhou Ming taught Lina a lot of things.

She was taught advanced theories such as "Human Structure", "Principles of Clothing Design", "How to Match Colors" and so on...... These things are all obtained by Zhou Ming from the real world, and he explains clothing design very thoroughly, and some of these theories, no matter how the fashion trend changes, will not be outdated in another thousand years.

Lina had never been exposed to this knowledge, and Zhou Ming's explanation opened a door for her to become a top fashion design master.

She absorbed it hungrily, and even memorized some points, and worked hard, no worse than her brother Henry.

Even in the middle of the night, Zhou Ming saw that she was still sewing clothes, her eyes were red and swollen, and her fingers were full of needles.

Zhou Ming was a little distressed, she worked so hard to sew a piece of clothing, it took ten days and half a month, and the efficiency was too low.

"The sewing machine is more than ten times more efficient than a human being, so I'll make her a sewing machine." ”

Of course, with the world's level of handicraft development, the probability of making a sewing machine with hundreds of parts and ensuring that it is easy to use and labor-saving is almost zero.

The good thing is that there is magic in this world.

Magic can do a myriad of incredible things.

In particular, after spending three days and mastering the first-level fire magic, the fireball, it was found through measurement that the average temperature of a fireball no bigger than a fist reached 1,500 degrees.

At this temperature, it is already possible to melt steel.

Using the fireball technique, Zhou Ming can easily shape steel parts, ensuring the quality and precision of each part.

By working with a blacksmith shop, Zhou Ming spent ten days and thousands of gold coins to successfully make his first sewing machine.

With this sewing machine, Lina's sewing efficiency has increased more than tenfold.

It took a total of 10 days to make an unusually gorgeous sky blue dress.

Not only is this skirt beautifully made, but the weight has also dropped a lot because of the elimination of the skirt structure.

A few words to describe it: lightweight, comfortable, gorgeous, beautiful.

Lina, as a model, put on this skirt and tried it on, and when she appeared in front of everyone, Rao was used to seeing beautiful scenery, but Zhou Ming was still slightly distracted for two seconds.

"Sister, you're so beautiful!"

Henry clapped his hands and shouted, his sister, it turned out to be so beautiful.

Lina smiled shyly and glanced at Zhou Ming, two lumps of blush appeared on her face, and her heart was full of gratitude.

How could she have achieved such a result without the help of her husband?

Zhou Ming encouraged her to keep up the good work, and he began to gather partners to prepare for the establishment of a clothing brand.

As usual, the first partner he thought of was Lilith, a female classmate who had cooperated quite happily and had formed a tacit understanding.

But this time, when he approached Lilith and said that he was going to enter the realm of clothing and make aristocratic clothing, Lilith took one look at him and then shook her head and rejected him.

Zhou Ming was taken aback, a little puzzled, and asked why he was unwilling to cooperate?

Is it not interested in the field of clothing?

"No, my family won't let me get too close to you, because ...... You are a member of the Leylin family. ”

Lilith was hesitant and embarrassed, and finally told Zhou Ming the real reason.

"So that's it?"

Zhou Ming suddenly realized and nodded immediately.

I see.

He got it perfectly.

To put it bluntly, among the aristocratic class of the royal capital, the Lei Lin family was not welcomed and was seriously ostracized.

Including him, the servant son of the Leilin family, is also "unwelcome".

Why?

What did the Leylin family do that caused them to be so unpopular?

Combined with the residual memories in his brain and the rumors he heard about his family, Zhou Ming roughly understood the reason.

Loyalist Party.

His family is one of the few loyal factions in the kingdom.

In the past three hundred years, it has been reused three times by the king, and a series of reforms have been implemented to consolidate the royal power.

For example, the reform of countyization, the increase in the amount of taxes paid by the lords, and the comprehensive collection of commercial taxes...... Without exception, these reforms, while consolidating the power of the king, also greatly damaged the interests of the aristocracy.

There was a lot of opposition and boycott.

But the Leilin family still has to firmly carry out the reform.

As a result, the three heads of the Leylin family, one died of assassination, one died of food poisoning, and one died in the war against foreign countries...... None of them will die well.

All three reforms failed.

And Zhou Ming's father, Cohen Railling, was summoned and reused by the king, but before he could initiate reforms, he was attacked by political enemies, and the whole family was exiled to the southern swamps.

Depending on the situation, there is no possibility of turning over.

The exile of the Lei Lin family marked the decline of the power of the Loyal Monarchy in the kingdom.

In fact, from Zhou Ming's point of view, for the kingdom of Adude, which has existed for thousands of years, the weakening of royal power is a historical inevitability.

Because the feudal system of the lord system determined that the king's rule was limited to a small area within the kingdom.

Most lords will comply with some obligations, but many more are unlikely to be satisfied.

The resources are fixed and limited, and the royal family's pursuit of money and land will increase with the increase of royal family members, and over time, the king will definitely try his best to strengthen his power and obtain more benefits.

But were the lords willing to give up their land and population to satisfy the king's appetites and needs?

Of course it is impossible.

The lords also have limited land, and they don't have enough for themselves, so how can they cede a little to the royal family?

In the final analysis, in the absence of resources, no lord is willing to cut meat to meet the needs of the royal family.

Foreign wars can be used to grab land and interests, but the kingdoms around the Kingdom of Addud are not weak, and fighting them will only hurt both sides...... Internal contradictions cannot be transferred abroad.

In this case, the king hopes that a family like the Leylin family will come forward to fight for some interests for the royal family.

But......

"It's just foolish loyalty, how can the combined strength of the nobles be able to resist a few loyal royal parties? The loyalty of the Leilin family, in the eyes of the king, is just a tool that can be used, and it is doomed to be sacrificed from the beginning. ”

"If it were me, I would never exchange the lives of my family for the increase of the king's interests, it would be too stupid, it would be better to make the profit cake bigger and realize hello, hello, hello, everyone. ”

Of course, a great country does need centralized power, but it depends on the comprehensive quality of the supreme leader and the successors who can maintain the "Mingjun tradition" well.

But according to Zhou Ming's observation, in the feudal society of the world, the more concentrated the king's power, the faster the perish and weakening, by no means more than 300 years, for no other reason, the probability of a faint monarch and a tyrant is too great, often the previous emperor creates a prosperous world, and the next emperor will die as the king of the country...... Absolute power, absolute corruption, collapse is faster.

And a feudal state like Adud, which has a history of more than a thousand years, can be said to abound in the human world of the Azeroa continent.

And the longer it exists, the weaker the royal power becomes.

Basically irretrievable.

Zhou Ming would not be stupid enough to stand in a team with his own family and do what cannon fodder loyal to the king's party.

However, because his surname is Leylin, it is impossible to draw a clear line with the Leylin family, and the Rudolph family behind Lilith is unwilling to cooperate with him, so he will find someone else.

And Zhou Ming also found a suitable partner - the Torris family behind the female classmate Betty.

The main area of the Torris family is aristocratic clothing, with thousands of professional tailors, and controls half of the aristocratic clothing market in the royal capital.

Betty, a female classmate, is also the most flamboyant of all female classmates, her clothes are not the same every day, and the popular styles of the upper class always start to appear from her.

And she has a proud personality, like a white swan, always looking at people with her nostrils, Zhou Ming said that she wanted to cooperate with her, she looked disdainful and said impatiently: "My cake master classmate, you better make your magic cake, in the clothing field, you still don't come in, the clothes you designed will not be worn by anyone"

Zhou Ming smiled slightly, took out a set of design drawings from his coat pocket, stalked him, and asked Betty for advice.

Betty, who was impatient with him, reluctantly looked at the costume design draft after listening to the sycophancy.

When she opened the first page, her eyes lit up.

Then the cooperation between Zhou Ming and the Torris family was successfully reached.

Betty owns the tailors, equipment and storefront, with a 50% stake.

Zhou Ming sold 100,000 gold coins, technology and design drawings, accounting for 48% of the shares.

As the chief designer, Lina replaces Zhou Ming and participates in all design, management and operation work, accounting for 2% of the shares.

The agreement was reached, and a clothing brand store called "Menglan" will soon open on a busy street in the royal capital.

At this time, the Brno School of Witchcraft and Wizardry also officially opened.
