Chapter 66: I'm going to collect fur and make clothes
Yan Jiao didn't understand the affairs of the yamen, so she let An Nanzhi go, she didn't know when he would come back, it was impossible to wait for him to come back before starting the meal, and after letting Qingqing leave the food, she continued to draw her own drawings.
Although the clothes in her store are selling well during this time, but there are many people who follow the trend and plagiarize during this time, the most disturbing thing for Yan Jiao is that there is a store where the clothes are copied from her, and she has also observed, that is, the fabrics in that store are all high-quality goods, even if they only imitate a little fur, but the fabrics in their store are only slightly better goods, and she also wants to use first-class goods, but she can't find a way, and she can't get into that kind of good material at all.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but sigh, although there are still many people patronizing every day, but in the long run, Gillian Pavilion will be compared with the store that copied her.
Obviously, she is the original, but she can't get good raw materials, and the rich people will think that the clothes in her store are inferior, and they will feel that the price is lower when they wear them.
Especially what she does is clothing, this industry is not like the food industry, as long as someone patronizes it, the clothing industry, if you just want to support your family, then you just need to sell the clothes, but if you want to make a lot of money, you must make your own brand, and you have to take the high-end route.
So the main group of people are still those dignitaries, after all, if you sell them a piece of clothing, then you need to sell ten or even hundreds of clothes to ordinary people, and the price is balanced.
Especially now that it has entered the winter, ordinary people only need a warm cotton coat, but for the young ladies of the rich families, this dress is also particular, not only to keep out the cold, but also to be fashionable, but also to be worthy of their identity, and most importantly, she found that this winter, these young ladies and young masters of rich families like to use mink fur to make clothes.
This mink fur is not easy to buy, after all, it is taken off from the animal, and another point is that this kind of mink fur is estimated to be only available to hunters, and each hunter has different methods.
Mink fur also needs to look at the color, the color is not good, the clothes made are not only not good-looking, but I am afraid that no one will buy it, and the most important point is that these skins are picked off from the animal, there is a very heavy smell of blood, the general hunter is just to deal with it, as long as it does not stain the coat color, the smell of blood is not particularly heavy and it is sold, after these furs are bought, they have to be reprocessed before they can be processed into clothes.
Why don't you learn to collect the fur tomorrow? Get to know as many hunters as you can so that the furs they hunt can be delivered to the store in the future?
At this time, Yan Jiao thought for a while, there seems to be a hunter in the village, and the fur generally used to make clothes is rabbit skin, fox skin, and tiger skin, of course, the first two are easy to collect, as for this tiger skin, I am afraid that it is not easy to collect, after all, the tiger is a bird of prey, and there are generally few people who dare not be afraid of death to hunt tigers, and the lethality of tigers is too great, that is, some hunters really accidentally encountered it, and generally can't escape, but also find a way to protect themselves, and finally killed the tiger by luck, I'm afraid it's hard to get a complete tiger skin.
It's not easy to get fur, so everyone likes the clothes made of mink fur.
Speaking of which, it was cold, and she also wanted to make a mink coat, which was not only warm, but also very expensive to wear.
"Forget it! Instead of thinking about these useless things, let's think about where to collect the fur tomorrow. ”
Just when Yan Jiao was worried, this An Nanzhi finally came back from outside, and when he returned to the room and saw Yan Jiao like this, he couldn't help but ask with concern:
"What's wrong, Gillian? Did something happen? ”
In the past two days, An Nanzhi also knew that this Yan Jiao had opened a shop in the town, and she was doing very well on weekdays.
"By the way, do you know who is the Orion in the village?"
"What is this for?"
"I'm not thinking about collecting some fur to make clothes, I think this kind of clothes are selling very well, didn't a new Jinyi Pavilion open recently, the store is all this kind of mink fur clothes, many people are vying to buy it, in this way, the high-quality customers in my store will be lost."
After all, people who can buy mink fur are definitely not short of money, what they lack is clothes, and people are comparative, if you see relatives and friends around you are wearing clothes made of mink fur, you can't do a whole thing, even if you don't like it very much, but in order not to lose face, you have to buy one for everything.
And she also inquired clearly in the past two days, animal fur wants to make clothes, it is a very troublesome thing, there are many processes, and the ready-to-wear is not easy, so it is very expensive, the most important thing is that the people here do not seem to know how to design mink fur, so the clothes made are not bulky, either wear out like a bear, or make animal fur into a cape.
Even if this style is ugly, there are still many people who are willing to pay a high price to buy clothes made of mink fur, and she happens to be able to design styles, what she lacks is materials, if she also has these animal skins in her hands, she guarantees that the clothes she makes are definitely not ugly, and they are very fashionable.
"Collect this kind of fur, although there are several hunters in the village, but they usually hunt some pheasants and rabbits and the like, I remember that animal fur is not easy to handle, and there is a strong fishy smell, are you sure you want to use this fur to make clothes?"
When An Nanzhi heard that Yan Jiao planned to use animal fur to make clothes, he couldn't help but worry about her, not to mention how many animal skins are needed to make a piece of clothing, and the most important point is that the smell is difficult to deal with.
"You don't understand! This thing is rare and expensive, rich people like to be different, feel that this can show their unique status, ordinary clothes they can not look down, want to let them have the silver in their pockets, you have to know what they like, only to invest in their likes, in order to make them obediently pay money. ”
"That's right."
"Xiangzhi, when I collect more fur in the future, I will also make you a dress made of mink fur, I promise that as long as you wear it, you will be the most beautiful cub on this street!"
"What?"
For Yan Jiao's words, An Nanzhi can't understand a little, what is the most beautiful cub? He's not a firefly, and he doesn't shine.
