The 20 retired soldiers were not retired at the age of retirement, but because they were injured and could not train, so they were forced to retire, Wang Yongan accepted all the orders, did not return any of them, and appointed one of them, Shao Yongqin, who had the highest rank of senior officer and the highest rank of platoon commander, as the captain of the factory guard. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

Although the twenty guards did not have hot weapons, but the cold weapons were not limited, and everyone was equipped with waist knives by Wang Yongan, wearing the same style as the Beiyang Army, but it was a red military uniform, and they walked on the street with great eye-catching.

Within two days, Shao Yongqin ran over and said shyly: "Owner, can we change the color of our security uniform, the red is too eye-catching." The little ones have become dioras when they walk down the street, and anyone who watches us whistle, and the brothers are really angry that one or two little rascals have gone. It's just not a long-term solution. ”

Wang Yongan laughed and said, "Captain Shao, are manly men still afraid of these? You are not even afraid of death, why are you afraid to get dressed? ”

"I'm not afraid of death, but the Red Army uniform is too ...... That's it. Shao Yongqin said embarrassedly.

"It's okay, it's okay, it's okay to get used to it." Wang Yongan said, Shao Yongqin saw that he couldn't move, so he had to leave in a huff. Later, Luo Shitong asked Wang Yongan to inspect the factory, and took him to inspect the workers' work area, dormitory area, canteen, and even the latrine and bathing room, and Wang Yongan was satisfied with all the progress of the factory. In the end, Luo Shitong said: "The owner, according to the current production speed, can complete this thousand sets of military uniforms in two months, and we need to make plans in advance to attract more business." ”

"What do you think? Manager Luo? ”

Luo Shitong said: "There are two ways, the first is that you use your relationship to strive for more orders for military uniforms, and the second is that we can't just produce military uniforms, but also need to produce other clothing, and use them early for civilian use." The owner, although the civilian uniform does not earn much, but it is better in the long run, and the military uniform is profitable, but it is difficult to guarantee the durability. ”

Wang Yongan nodded in approval and said, "Actually, I have already thought about it, and we can produce women's clothing in the future." ”

"Women's clothing? Women's clothes? Luo Shitong was surprised, "What women's clothing?" ”

"Cheongsam!" Wang Yongan smiled.

Cheongsam, formed in the early years of the Republic of China, when the Qing government ruled over, Western culture into China, in line with China's national conditions, gave birth to a Republic of China fashion clothing series, which have men's robes and horse coats and women's cheongsam shawls. Whether it is a robe or a cheongsam, they are not the same as during the Qing Dynasty. Later scholars proposed that although the cheongsam of the Republic of China was developed from the women's clothing of the Manchu Qing Dynasty, it could fully reflect the beautiful curves of Chinese women.

Since the Han Dynasty, Chinese Han women have gradually only worn the "upper and lower clothes" style, commonly known as "two pieces of clothing", and wearing robes has almost become a man's patent. Women's wearing of "two-cut clothes" has also become a symbol of the oppression of women by rituals. Therefore, in the early days of the establishment of the Republic of China, due to the massive influx of Western culture and ideas, the country suffered greatly from the invasion of foreign powers and warlord wars.

The cheongsam is a Westernized variation of Chinese clothing tradition, which integrates the characteristics of the cheongsam vest and the new civilized clothes, and at the same time combines the compatibility form of the Western-style skirt, constituting a new fashion fashion and clothing aesthetics that are not only the shadow of Western fashion but different from the traditional Chinese robes, but also have distinctive Chinese characteristics and the symbol of the Republic of China era.

The reason why the name "cheongsam" eventually became popular during the Republic of China was that throughout the Qing Dynasty, Han women's clothing still retained the traditional "top and bottom" system of Han women. Except for the aristocratic women's dresses, ordinary women generally do not wear robes, while flag girls are robes regardless of whether they are aristocratic women's dresses or ordinary women's daily clothes. Therefore, under the subtle influence of nearly 300 years, ordinary people have become accustomed to the historical memory of "women wearing robes = robes of flag girls", so when the cheongsam of the Republic of China began to appear, ordinary people would be given an association that this was a "cheongsam".

In fact, the first group of the Republic of China cheongsam did not recognize the name "cheongsam", but only called it a long gown, a long robe or a long robe, which was confused with men's clothing, and on February 27, 1926, the "Republic of China Daily" had a short article "Robe but not Flag", proposing to change the name to "Chinese robe". Someone else suggested that it be called a cheongsam, but it was called back to the cheongsam. ”

Although now is not the best time to sell cheongsam, Wang Yongan knows that the best money in the world is always the money on women, a man can wear a set of clothes for ten years, and a woman can only wear ten sets of clothes for one year. The beautiful design of the cheongsam adds a bit of charm to Chinese women, and it will not be abandoned by the times.

However, if you want to design a cheongsam, Wang Yongan definitely doesn't have this ability, he studied animation design in his previous life, and it is okay to draw it, but it is difficult to make it. Nowadays, the male workers in the factory can make simple and crude military uniforms, but it is difficult to make cheongsam, and he needs the best tailors to make samples.

The best tailor in Yangzhou City is surnamed Gu, known as Gu Shizhen, and the Gu family has been a tailor for ten generations. According to legend, Gu Shizhen's ancestors made dragon robes for Emperor Chongzhen of the Ming Dynasty, and later the Manchu Qing Dynasty entered the customs, and the Garment Bureau of the Ministry of Internal Affairs did not hang himself with Chongzhen, but all surrendered to the Qing Dynasty, and made clothes for the emperor of the Qing Dynasty.

No family can enjoy happiness forever, just like the Jia family in the Dream of Red Mansions, the Gu family was also lonely later, Gu Shizhen's great-grandfather didn't know what happened, and the whole family was driven out of the capital.

Later, the Gu family settled in Yangzhou and opened a tailor shop, which has now passed into the hands of Gu Shizhen, and is now the most famous tailor in Yangzhou.

When Wang Yongan told Gu Shizhen about his idea, the old man sneered slightly and said, "What is this?" And make clothes for women, I don't make clothes for women, you go, send off. ”

Wang Yongan was very disappointed, he came to Tianyue Building to drink and relax, Sister Cao smiled and said Brother, what's wrong with you, who has offended you. Wang Yongan told her what happened to him, and then sighed and said, "Why didn't Gu Shizhen help me, is there something wrong with this Gu Shizhen?" Got money or not? If we cooperate, we will definitely become the richest person in Yangzhou City. ”

After hearing this, Sister Cao chuckled and said, "It's strange that Old Man Gu will help you, aren't you smashing other people's signboards like this?" If your ready-to-wear really makes it between the people, wouldn't it just steal someone's business? ”
