Chapter 497 Imitation cheongsam
On October 16, Armani clothing is undergoing the final preparations for its opening.
At present, all the cheongsams of Victoria's Secret babies have been prepared, and the bras and pants sent from Fuzhou are all in place.
As for the cheongsam on sale, Cui Wenqing did not make a special trip to make it in advance.
After all, the Armani clothing store has decided to take the high-end luxury route, and will not cut fixed-size cheongsams in large quantities, but will be specially customized according to each person's different body shape.
In other words, in the future, every cheongsam cut by Armani clothing will be specially sewn according to the body shape of each customer.
Cui Wenqing's intention is very clear, since the cheongsam is easy to be imitated, then he directly gave up the low-end market and did not compete with other clothing stores, but specialized in high-end cheongsam.
This is also the truth that scarcity is expensive.
As for the catwalk of Victoria's Secret baby, Cui Wenqing thought about it several times and decided to build it outside the Armani clothing store.
For this reason, he went to negotiate with Jia Nanhe, the city commander, and rented the long street outside the Armani clothing store for a few days.
For such a request, Jia Nanhe naturally agreed without thinking about it, and at the same time praised Cui Wenqing's use of the wall to paint and publicize.
Cui Wenqing was happy to have a good relationship with this Beishi city order, although Jia Nanhe had made it clear that he didn't need to pay the rent of the fang wall, he still gave Jia Nanhe fifty taels of silver, which made Jia Nanhe feel overjoyed.
When it was still Shen to leave the City Decree Mansion, Cui Wenqing saw that it was still early, so he did not rush back to the Yang Mansion, but went to the clothing store.
As soon as he walked into the store, he saw Chang Wen talking to a few tailors in the clothing store, with an anxious look on his face.
Cui Wenqing secretly felt strange, walked in and asked with a smile: "What, could it be something?" ”
Seeing that it was Cui Wenqing who arrived, Chang Wen was overjoyed, and hurriedly stepped forward and smiled: "It's great that my uncle can come today, I have something to tell you." ”
Cui Wenqing sat down and asked, "What's the matter, but it doesn't hurt to say it." ”
Chang Wen sighed and said: "Uncle can know that today's Xingya Silk Village has already appeared as an imitation of the cheongsam, which is said to be imitated by Jiang Xiaoyue, the world's first tailor, according to the pictures on the wall of Beishifang. ”
Cui Wenqing didn't show the slightest surprise, but smiled calmly: "Is it imitated?" ”
Chang Wen said with a wry smile: "Jiang Xiaoyue is worthy of being the first tailor, after her design and measurement, the cheongsam made by Xingya Silk Village is about six or seven percent similar to us, but they have won the first place in the sales of cheongsam, and secondly, the number of cheongsams sold is large, so it has also caused people in the city to rush to buy." ”
After finishing speaking, Chang Wen looked sad and asked, "Uncle, what should we do now?" ”
Cui Wenqing smiled quite confidently: "It's just a small skill of carving insects, why worry about it, but in order to understand the situation, let's go and see it first." ”
"What does my uncle mean, is he going to Xingya Silk Village in person?" Chang Wenden was shocked.
Cui Wenqing bowed his head and said, "Yes, is there something wrong?!" ”
Seeing Cui Wenqing's natural look, Chang Wen said angrily and funny: "Of course it's not appropriate, uncle, you are a thorn in Cai Donglai's eyes, a thorn in the flesh, he already hates you to the bone, and he will definitely be troubled by him if you go like this." ”
Cui Wenqing said with a smile: "If we don't even have the courage to face the enemy, how can we defeat the enemy, let's go, let's go and see." ”
Seeing Cui Wenqing's resolute attitude, Chang Wen naturally couldn't refute it, so he nodded complacently.
After a while, the two of them left the clothing store and headed towards Xingya Silk Village.
The two stores are only 20 zhang apart, and they arrived at the front of Xingya Silk Village without walking a few steps.
It can be seen that the business of Xingya Silk Village is very good, and today's store sales are even more hot, and there is a long queue outside, and most of them are young women.
Seeing this, Chang Wen's face was even more ugly, and he whispered to Cui Wenqing: "Uncle, I'm afraid that most of these girls are here to buy cheongsams, and this alone will rob Xingya Silk Village of a lot of our business." ”
Cui Wenqing smiled but said nothing, and Shi Shiran stepped into Xingya Silk Village.
As soon as I crossed the threshold, I saw that the wooden cargo desk inside was crowded with people, and not far away stood a reception maid in a green dress.
Seeing Cui Wenqing entering, the reception maid came and saluted, although her tone was polite, but her attitude revealed a hint of arrogance: "This son, if you want to buy goods, when you go outside to line up, you can't cut the queue like this." ”
Cui Wenqing was just about to talk, Cai Donglai, who was talking with the shopkeeper in the corner of the store, suddenly saw him, and suddenly smiled and said: "Yo, who am I, it turned out that Cui Gongzi personally came to the shop, and it was really a long way to go." ”
Cui Wenqing seems to have nothing happened, as if the festival with Cai Dong does not exist, and his smile is like a spring breeze: "Cai Gong is polite, I came to Xingya Silk Village to visit it today, and sure enough, the guests are like clouds, and the business is prosperous!" ”
Cai Donglai was angry, and said with a smile: "Speaking of which, thanks to the new cheongsam designed by Armani clothing store, my Xiaoyue imitated it according to the pattern, but it was a great success and a big hit, Cui Gongzi, I have to sincerely thank you here." After saying that, he laughed proudly.
Hearing Cai Donglai's implied provocation and the pride he expressed, Chang Wen's face turned slightly red with anger, and his fists couldn't help but clench, obviously feeling aggrieved.
Only Cui Wenqing's expression was determined, and he said with a smile: "Why should Gong Cai be so polite, no thanks, these are all as they should be, and the one who says thank you in the end should be in the next place." ”
I thought that Cui Wenqing would show embarrassment and indignation, but I didn't expect him to have such a demeanor and such a tone, Cai Donglai's smug smile couldn't help stiffening on his face, and he asked in disbelief: "...... What do you mean by that? ”
Cui Wenqing blinked mysteriously, and under Cai Donglai's questioning expression, he said with a smile: "You'll know tomorrow!" ”
When Cui Wenqing laughed and turned to leave, Cai Donglai was still standing in place and was in doubt, tomorrow? Could it be that this guy has no tricks to do tomorrow?
In the early morning of the next day, the sun was shining brightly, which was a rare warm sunny day in winter.
Inside and outside the gate of the North City, the people in and out are bustling, and the carriages and ox carts are endless, but when people pass by the side of the gate, they will always be unable to help but glance at the wall and appreciate the beautiful woman in the painting.
For more than ten days, this stunning woman wearing a cheongsam has already become a beautiful scenery in the North City, whether it is a peddler or a pawn, or a high-ranking nobleman, they all admire the woman's graceful and luxurious bearing, and the face of the country and the city.
