Chapter 119: Originals and Fakes

"What's the graphic on this dress?" When Li Meiniang saw the phoenix mark, she felt a little dazzling. At that time, when Zhu Youxiao asked Xiaoxiao to embroider this logo on every piece of clothing, Xiaoxiao also felt this way, and Zhu Youxiao told her that the reason why our clothes can be sold so expensive, this trademark plays a decisive role.

"This graphic is called a trademark, which is the trademark of our Phoenix Seeking Phoenix, which was designed by the emperor himself, only the clothes with such a trademark are the genuine products produced by our Phoenix Seeking Phoenix, and the rest are just fakes even if they are the same style." Xiao Xiao explained.

"The emperor designed it?!" When I heard that it was designed by Zhu Youxiao, I instantly felt that it was not so dazzling.

Li Meiniang even praised: "This implication is good, as the saying goes: women are the ones who please themselves, and we dress up beautifully every day, not to attract those stinky men who are willing to spend more money on us." ”

After listening to Li Meiniang's words, everyone nodded and agreed.

Li Meiniang glanced at Xiaoxiao, and added: "Of course, some are also to attract their beloved." ”

After Li Meiniang finished speaking, she continued: "Today, the small clothing store opened on the first day, I will pick a few pieces, which can be regarded as a small start." "The price of clothes here is nothing to Li Meiniang, as an oiran, it is no exaggeration to say that it is a daily income.

"Xiaoxiao is here, thank you sisters for your support, you can choose any one of the clothes here as today's reward." Xiao Xiao said with a smile.

"Xiaoxiao, you have already paid for inviting us here, and I can't say anything more about your clothes here." Li Meiniang refused.

"Sister Mei Niang is right, how can we ask for your clothes again?" Everyone agreed.

"Sisters, don't say that, you usually wear these clothes for a clothing store, and I hope you sisters don't postpone it." Xiaoxiao said.

……

The clothes in the Fengqiu Huang clothing store do have enough gimmicks, designed by the emperor and worn by the concubines, this is the biggest gimmick, and with a small courtesy, the clothes in the entire clothing store were sold out that day.

At the beginning, when everyone chose clothes, they also looked to see if they fit, but seeing that the clothes were about to be sold out, they didn't care whether they could wear them or not, whether they fit or not, they all bought them first, and if they really couldn't wear them, they could give them away.

Although the Ming Dynasty has regulations on the color of clothing materials, by the end of the Ming Dynasty, many regulations have existed in name only, for example, the Ming Dynasty's decree once stipulated that merchants could not wear embroidered clothes, and when Zhu Youxiao arrived, no one did not wear them. In the palace, the internal officials did not talk about it, and began to overstep the system very early, and the cabinet minister Liu Jian once said that "the ministers are especially arrogant", and Xiaozong intends to control it, but "the internal officials have been arrogant for a long time, and they have accumulated habits and habits, and they can't stop it", and when they arrived in Jiajing, the clothes were even more messy, and there were even civil officials who wore animal tattoo clothes.

All these changes are conducive to the growth of Zhu Youxiao, a ready-to-wear store. Xiaoxiao didn't expect the clothes to sell so well at all, she originally thought that at such an expensive price, she could sell one or two pieces a day. This time it was sold out, so she couldn't replenish the stock in time, at this time, the clothes were all hand-sewn, and it took several days to make a dress.

Xiaoxiao had to hang a sign outside the door that said "clothes are sold out, temporarily closed". Fortunately, Zhu Youxiao allocated a group of people from the palace to Xiaoxiao, otherwise Xiaoxiao would have been out of business for more than a few days.

The dress designed by Xiaoxiao combines the characteristics of Ming Dynasty dresses and paddy field clothes, which is more suitable for this era than Zhu Youxiao's design, and at the same time, Xiaoxiao also absorbs the opinions of two Western beauties. So for the girl who hooks the fence, it is not a problem at all to wear it out to meet guests.

Qinglou women were a group of people who led the fashion of dressing during this period, and at that time there was a saying that "the costumes of the Quartet are all imitated by the Beijing Division", not to mention that the first group of people to wear them were also famous prostitutes of the Beijing Division.

Dresses were as popular as ponytail skirts in Beijing that year, and the women of Qinglou imitated them one after another, and for a time dresses could be seen everywhere in the entire Goolan courtyard. It's just that the dress is different from the ponytail skirt, it was designed for women at the beginning of the design, and men can't wear it, unlike the ponytail skirt that could be worn by both men and women, resulting in ponytail skirts all over the capital.

"Sister, Sanniang next door also wore the same dress as you today." The maid who was waiting for Wang Meiniang said softly. The Sanniang in her mouth is Li Sanniang, the second place on the flower list last year. After all, Jingshi is at the foot of the Son of Heaven, and the flower list of Jingshi is not as good as Nanjing's flower list in terms of scale and atmosphere, but it is still very influential in the north, and the ranking of the flower list determines a person's worth.

Li Sanniang lost to Wang Meiniang last year. And this small ready-to-wear show, she did not participate due to physical inconvenience. But what Li Sanniang didn't expect was that after this ready-to-wear display, Wang Meiniang's popularity soared, and her value increased again, and she opened up the distance at once. Although Li Sanniang didn't go, she also imitated a dress.

"Dong Shi is just following suit, this dress of mine is different from hers, do you see this trademark? This was drawn by the emperor himself. Look at the satin of this dress, but it is all a tribute to the palace, and the satin sewn on the clothes alone is worth more than her clothes, and this craft is also the craftsmanship of the palace needlework bureau, how can her tattered clothes be compared with mine? Her one was a fake at best. Wang Meiniang sneered.

"My sister is very right." The maid nodded and said.

Wang Meiniang and Li Sanniang are comparing, and they are also comparing as maids, there is a way: the king worries about the ministers, the king humiliates the ministers and dies, and the same is true for those who are maids.

……

The whole alley is so big, what to say, it doesn't take a day or two to spread all over the entire alley. Wang Meiniang's words reached Li Sanniang's ears in less than a day.

Li Sanniang was really furious, and she asked angrily: "What Wang Meiniang said is true?" ”

"Yes, I asked the people in the alley, and they all know that Fengqiuhuang is genuine, and the rest are just fakes, but the price of each piece of Fengqiuhuang's clothes is very expensive, and the cheapest ones are hundreds of taels." The maid fell to her knees and said.

"Fake?! What a fake. Li Sanniang picked up the scissors and cut the clothes to shreds.

Seeing this, the maid stopped talking, and fell to the ground and didn't dare to move. Li Sanniang's temper has become much bigger since she lost to Oiran last year.

"Can't I afford to wear the original? Isn't my Li Sanniang as good as her Wang Meiniang, can she really only wear fakes? Li Sanniang said coldly.
