Chapter 133: Popular all over the country
Next, Guo Zhiyuan and Leng Xianning discussed the details of the operation and marketing of the garment factory, Leng Xianning was born in a wealthy family, and he is actually quite talented in business, and Guo Zhiyuan's modern marketing management concept has opened a new door for her, and it also made her have a better and hotter impression of Guo Zhiyuan, and her beautiful eyes looked at Guo Zhiyuan, full of admiration.
After the two discussed, Leng Xianning left Xichan Temple to meet his father, and put forward the idea of ending the practice of bringing hair to do a garment business, her father Leng Feng, the head of the Leng family, has always felt guilty and regretful for his daughter, and was naturally overjoyed when he heard it, and handed over all the businesses related to textiles and garments of the Leng family to Leng Xianning, and also allocated 20,000 taels of silver to her as start-up capital.
Not long after, a garment store called "Miao Yi Fang" was grandly opened, and people were surprised to find that Leng Xianning, the first beauty in Fuzhou who swore not to marry in Xichan Temple for life, actually appeared in the "Miao Yi Fang" on the opening day, and claimed that this "Miao Yi Fang" was opened by her, and the cheongsam worn by Leng Xian Ning on the opening day was even more amazing to the audience, and became a hot topic in the whole Fuzhou City!
If someone else dares to wear it like this, it is indispensable to be scolded for being immoral, shameless, etc., but no one dares to scold Leng Xianning, first, the Leng family is rich and powerful in Fuzhou, and no one can afford to provoke it, but Leng Xianning's loyalty is well-known in the city, most of the women in Fuzhou are her loyal fans, you scold her shamelessly, you have to be careful to be sprayed with her loyal fans.
So not only no one scolded, but let the cheongsam suddenly popular in Fuzhou City, although the price of a cheongsam is expensive, as high as three taels of silver, but the cheongsam of Miaoyifang was snatched up in just a few days, the interesting thing is that many men also come to patronize Miaoyifang, just to see Leng Xianning, the first beauty of Fuzhou's peerless face, it is naturally not good to go back empty-handed, always to buy a cheongsam back, and even some people in order to swing wide, a buy is several pieces, each style to buy one, Go back and let your own women and concubines wear them, the first beauty in Fuzhou they can't touch, it's okay to go home YY, among them is our Huangliu son who likes vassal elegance.
Huang Liu hadn't gotten married yet, so he gave all the cheongsams he bought to the prostitutes he frequented. Female, I never thought that his unintentional move would actually give birth to another market segment of the cheongsam, those prostitutes in the green building. After putting on the cheongsam, the woman unexpectedly found that her attraction to men had increased greatly, and the "business" was much better than before, so that for a long time, wearing the cheongsam had almost become the standard uniform of the women in the Qinglou.
Leng Xianning used the business network of the Leng family to quickly promote the cheongsam to other cities, and even the Jiangnan area also opened a branch, in this era Jiangnan's commercial radiation ability is very amazing, and soon even the capital also appeared cheongsam, even the concubines in the palace began to secretly wear cheongsam, everyone knows that the concubines in the palace are doing everything in order to compete for favor, Wanli's favorite Zheng Guifei in order to fix the favor, do not allow other concubines in the palace to wear cheongsam, and give the palace eunuch head who is responsible for purchasing ordered, as long as the Miaoyifang has a new style, must be bought as soon as possible and sent to the palace.
In this way, the fame of Miaoyifang is even greater, and even the clothes that Zheng Guifei in the palace likes need to be said? Almost all the families of dignitaries and nobles are proud of owning a cheongsam of Miaoyifang, so that the Qipao of Miaoyifang, which originally only cost 3 taels of silver, was fried to 10 taels of silver.
At the same time, Miao Yifang also launched a customized service, tailored according to each person's figure, so that the cheongsam is more close-fitting and more beautiful, of course, the price has become an astonishing 50 taels a piece, even so, it still makes the families of those dignitaries flock to it, and do not hesitate to ask for each other.
The cheongsam of Miaoyifang is so popular, naturally there are other businessmen who follow the trend and imitate it, but at this time, the fame of Miaoyifang has started, and Guo Zhiyuan has already thought of this problem, so that Leng Xianning embroidered the trademark of Miaoyifang on the placket of each Miaoyifang cheongsam - a blooming hibiscus flower, and there is a small cold word in the middle of the stamen, and the cheongsam made by other merchants can only be regarded as a high imitation at most, except for those women who have no money and want to catch up with fashion, the family members of real dignitaries and nobles disdain to wear it, So it didn't pose much of a threat to the business of Miao Yifang.
Guo Zhiyuan also found a new way to explore intelligence from the information fed back by Leng Xianning, the family members of those dignitaries and nobles were unwilling to show their heads, and when ordering cheongsam, they would ask the tailor master of Miaoyifang to come to measure the size, he immediately asked Zhang Cheng to select more than a dozen people from the dozens of women who had been plagued by bandits, and after some brainwashing and training, they all developed into female spies in the intelligence department, and then all of them were sent to Miaoyifang's branches in various places, taking advantage of the opportunity to enter and exit the mansions of those dignitaries. Establish a good relationship with the daughters of those dignitaries and nobles, so as to gather intelligence. Especially in the branch of the capital, due to the relationship between Concubine Zheng Guifei, the tailors of Miaoyifang had the opportunity to enter and leave the palace, so Guo Zhiyuan sent the most shrewd and capable Shen Yuniang. This intelligence line later gave Guo Zhiyuan a lot of help, allowing him to grasp the opportunity everywhere, which is a later story, so I won't mention it for the time being.
At this time, Guo Zhiyuan has naturally returned to Gutian County, at this time it is close to the Lunar New Year, and his road repair plan will have to wait until the New Year, so Guo Zhiyuan can only take the regimental training township soldiers and the new army to engage in training, just Zhang Cheng sent out to mix in other bandit forces The secret agent sent out to send information, Guo Zhiyuan took the regimental training township soldiers and the new army to end the nest of two small bandit forces, although the seizure was far less rich than the end of the old nest of the leopard, but it made those small bandit forces more and more frightened, I didn't dare to stay in Gutian County anymore, so I moved to several other counties adjacent to Gutian, so that Gutian County did not find any trace of them except for a poisonous king bee bandit force for the time being, and the other bandit forces were basically wiped out, and Gutian County really became peaceful.
The Lunar New Year has finally arrived! Although the common people of this era are not as grand and festive as the later generations, but as the most important festival of the year of the Chinese nation, the people still value it very much, plus Guo Zhiyuan cleared the bandits in Gutian, the people can finally have a peaceful and peaceful Spring Festival, so it is also more festive than in previous years, the Spring Festival couplets are pasted early, and many people also hang red lanterns at the door, and the sound of festive firecrackers can be heard from time to time.
