Chapter 55 (2)

Xiao Ying's dress left a deep impression on people, and in addition to being noble, elegant and generous, it also perfectly showed the demeanor of a young woman. It dwarfs the ladies of the same age at the same table, but perfectly avoids the grace and luxury of the old woman. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law contrasted with each other for a while, and successfully became the focus of the audience. Su Ningsi, who was carefully dressed that day, could only retreat, otherwise she would become a green leaf that set off the red flowers.

"Can you surpass Xiao Ying?" Zhang Wenyi said with a smile: "That dress is my best work, it's really not easy to surpass it, but at least it won't be worse than that one." ”

Su Ning pondered for a moment, she felt that even if Zhang Wenyi didn't please her, at least she should be for the sake of the concubine, and don't let her compare to the daughter-in-law of a national family.

Zhang Wenyi naturally grabbed Su's arm, and explained while walking outside: "My sister's appearance and temperament are different from Sister Xiao's, if you insist on comparison, it's like comparing what you're not good at, and you're at a loss." ”

Zhang Wenyi said it naturally and reasonably, Su Ningsi looked at her and smiled, and said, "It's me who is stubborn." ”

The two of them said as they walked, Zhang Wenyi saw that Su's attitude was eased, and he didn't want to stiffen the relationship. also talked about some substantive issues: "Sister is not strange, in fact, clothes can only modify the figure, if you want to achieve the effect of Sister Xiao, a set of clothes alone is not enough." Hair buns, accessories, shoes, and makeup all need to be carefully matched, and if you only care about the clothes, you are afraid that no matter how good they are, they will not be effective. ”

Su Ningsi listened to Zhang Wenyi's words, and her steps couldn't help but slow down. After a while, she said: "No wonder the clothes are all from you and your clothing shop, some people wear them that are pleasing to the eye, some are amazing, and some are not up to the bottom of the strange things, is what you said about matching?" ”

Zhang Wenyi smiled and said, "Yes." ”

Su Ning thought for a while and said, "Xiao Ying's outfit that day was not perfect, so that the clothes were too prominent, which made an impression on people but covered them up. ”

Zhang Wenyi said with a smile: "That's true, but her mother-in-law is also there, so she can't even steal the limelight from her." ”

Su Ningsi was stunned for a moment, and then smiled: "It's rare that you are thoughtful. ”

Zhang Wenyi smiled: "This has nothing to do with me, it is Sister Xiao's own consideration." ”

Princess Jinyang saw that the two of them were talking and laughing, and secretly sighed. She has the most contact with Zhang Wenyi, and knows that she seems to be easy-going, but she is actually a very delicate and picky person. Su's initial attitude was a little arrogant, but he was afraid that he had annoyed her.

Although the Su clan is not afraid of fighting with others, those are all skills in the back house, and when she encounters an elf like Zhang Wenyi, she is only afraid that she will not be able to use her skills. But if Zhang Wenyi offended her today, she might not be able to take Su's revenge in the future. It's just that the two of them didn't call her when they entered the inner room, but Jin Yang was powerful and had nowhere to go. can only watch with their eyes open, and in their hearts, the two of them must not turn their faces.

Fortunately, seeing the two of them talking and laughing and walking out, Jin Yang secretly met and silently recited in his heart: Amitabha, it's finally good.

Jin Yang found an excuse and said: I'm afraid that Xincheng will be impatient to wait for too long, and I have to go back quickly. Seeing that she was leaving, Su Shi also got up to say goodbye, and Zhang Wenyi said: "Since that's the case, I won't keep you." ”

After sending the two away, Zhang Wenyi pursed her lips, rolled her eyes, and went back to the house. Anyway, Zhang Wenyi is really busy now, and she has no time to talk to people.

Although the business of the clothing shop was booming at this time, Zhang Wenyi still decided to close the business temporarily. One of the main reasons is that the scale and decoration of her current store cannot meet the needs of her direction. So after selling down a cloth shop that had been half-dead due to poor management, Zhang Wenyi decided to tear down the two shops and rebuild them at a high price.

During this period, the five designers were retrained, and this training not only strengthened their design ability, but also strengthened their ability to communicate with customers, among which the training of psychology was particularly important.

The rest of the service staff were also served by the court's maids of appropriate age, and these girls who were trained in court etiquette were very important to improve the quality of service.

The five designers Zhang Wenyi also retained their identity as palace people and did not let them enter the city, which was conducive to Zhang Wenyi's control of them on the one hand, and a kind of respect for the guests on the other hand.

For the decoration of the store, Zhang Wenyi also spent a lot of effort, due to the need for guests to stay, Zhang Wenyi also set up a garage and stables at the back of the store. There are special people to feed and walk the horses, and there are special places to park vehicles and rest for the coachmen.

Except for a part of the store to provide ready-to-wear purchases for individual customers, the rest of the places are separated separately to form several independent private spaces for designers to communicate with customers and take a break. There is a kitchen in the store, where you can enjoy light snacks and meals.

Before the opening, Zhang Wenyi first asked people to visit the royal ladies in Beijing, told them about the future business philosophy and direction of the clothing workshop, and asked if they were willing to join the VIP customers. However, in the face of the entrance fee of 10,000 yuan, most of the royal ladies refused Zhang Wenyi's invitation to join, and what they thought was: Do you still refuse if we ask you to make a pullover? !

Only Jinyang and Xincheng, who were good with Zhang Wenyi, begged for silver from Li Shimin, and they became the first and second VIP customers of Qiushui Yiren. The third and fourth are, of course, Xiao Ying and Yuan Niang, and the fifth is Concubine Yang, one of the emperor's favorite concubines.

Other royal ladies, including the crown princess and Princess Wei, did not join the association, and most of these people looked at Zhang Wenyi with a "you are poor and crazy".

The first customers on the first day of reopening were Xiao Yan, who Zhang Wenyi never expected, and the three young beauties who came with her, and their outfits turned out to be princesses.

Zhang Wenyi, who was hiding behind, was very helpless to let them lead them to his room, and when she met Xiao Yan, she introduced: "These three are Princess Wu and the other two sisters-in-law. ”

Who is King Wu? Who's going to tell her. Zhang Wenyi was once again ashamed of her historical knowledge, and she basically didn't go out of the door until now. Her presence in the royal family is extremely low, and most people only know her name. Since opening the clothing shop, more people have despised her identity as the daughter of a merchant.

Princess Wu shouldn't be one of them, she took Zhang Wenyi's hand and said with a smile: "I have long wanted to see you, the royal lady Tao Zhu, but I have never been able to do it." I can't imagine that I am still so beautiful when I see it today, no wonder I am always complacent when I mention my sister King Jin. ”

Zhang Wenyi didn't expect Princess Wu to be so approachable, so she also said humbly: "Sister praises falsely, Jiu'er is ashamed." ”

beckoning everyone to sit down, Princess Wu took out four silver tickets of 10,000 yuan and said, "This is our entrance fee." ”

Zhang Wenyi checked out three and returned them to her, and said, "Xiao Yan and I are both the wives and concubines of King Jin, and she doesn't need them." One is enough for the three sisters, and I am very grateful to the family for coming to cheer. It's just that the rules can't be abolished, and the meaning is still needed. ”

Princess Wu was very happy to hear this, and she smiled: "Then sister is welcome." ”

The four of them were talking, and Li Qinglian walked in at this time and said, "The family of Master Zhang, the imperial historian, wants to get a VIP card. ”

Zhang Wenyi asked: "Why is it not enough?" ”

Princess Wu's beautiful eyes wandered and asked, "Why do you still have the conditions as a VIP?" ”

Zhang Wenyi explained with a "hmm": "There are so many noble ladies in the capital, where did we do it." So we only plan to issue 300 VIP cards to serve only these 300 people. In other words, they will serve only these 300 people. Therefore, we now only accept Mrs. Decree of the fourth rank or above. ”

Princess Wu said with a smile: "Merchants still have to choose officials, this is a groundbreaking event, are you relying on the identity of Princess Jin?" ”

Zhang Wenyi explained calmly: "Sister Hugh wants to make fun of her, and my little sister is also helpless." Only such a big head can only borrow such a big hat. Too many people will also affect the quality of service, not to mention that the clothes are not good and the brand is smashed, and the same will offend people. ”

Princess Wu nodded, turned her head to Li Qinglian and said, "Have you ever heard what your chief said?" If Mrs. Zhang's words are provocative, she will reply to her with the words of Princess Jin. ”

It turned out that Princess Wu did not have an opinion on Zhang Wenyi, but was helping her solve the most difficult problems. I have to say that Princess Wu's question just now is the most powerful question, and if she doesn't answer well, it's really easy to provoke criticism.

Zhang Wenyi hurriedly got up and saluted, "Thank you sister for being thoughtful." ”

In the first three days of the reopening, the 300 VIP places were immediately filled. Even Li Shimin secretly smacked his tongue at this result, because a VIP card has to pay a membership fee of 10,000 yuan. This amount of money is not a small number at any time, and the most wanted famous bandit leader in the country is 3,000 guan. In just three days and three days, Zhang Wenyi has gathered a huge wealth of three million yuan, and this means that his son Wen Zheng will sigh to himself.

Zhang Wenyi took out two million and handed it to Li Shimin, leaving one million turnover.

Li Shimin was strange and said: "What do I do with this money, doesn't it mean that if you don't open a store, the entrance fee will have to be returned?" ”

Zhang Wenyi replied: "If you don't turn it off, wouldn't you have to return it?" The father was relieved that the concubine would earn it back, but he just handed it over in advance. ”

Li Shimin smiled: "Are you so generous, don't you want to drag me into the water and help you maintain this clothing shop?" ”

Zhang Wenyi replied without changing his face: "It is not easy to win the trust of my father, if I can get the protection of my father, it is worth paying my father two million." ”

Li Shimin was slapped by Zhang Wenyi's inconspicuous sycophants and laughed: "You kid is true, but I may not be able to brush off the intentions of hundreds of officials." If they rise up and attack me, it will be difficult for me to speak for you, so why don't you please them? ”

Zhang Wenyi smiled and said: "Concubines will not please these people, and pleasing them will only promote these people's sense of taking it for granted." They will only feel that it is deserved, not grateful, and they will only feel cherished when they take out the money. ”

Li Shimin listened to Zhang Wenyi's words and wanted to refute it, but after thinking about it, it turned out to be very reasonable, and he didn't feel that he pondered about it.
