Chapter 159 In Tessie, it is illegal for a woman to go out in pants

Zhu Jingyuan adjusted his mentality and assigned tasks to the craftsmen.

The average craftsman was responsible for one or two things each, and the Royal Garment Company made a separate copy for all:

"Do it as soon as possible, preferably within five days, because in five days I may be leaving.

"If a few craftsmen do a good job, they can come to my firm as managers in the future.

"The remuneration and income are at least thirty percent higher than you are now."

Five days isn't a long time, and if it's a traditional Tessie dress, it may not be a good time.

But Zhu Jingyuan's new-style suits are all the most simple cuts, and five days is enough.

Push away other jobs and do Zhu Jingyuan's work first.

The craftsmen listened to the previous instructions and subconsciously agreed.

And Zhu Jingyuan's last two sentences surprised all craftsmen.

In addition to Chu Yuqiang, the existing craftsmen either open small shops by themselves, or work as big workers or managers in large stores.

To become a manager in a commercial bank opened by Zhu Jingyuan, the prince, his status will be much higher than now, and the key remuneration will also be increased at the same time.

These Boers or mixed-race Boer craftsmen couldn't refuse Zhu Jingyuan's proposal, and they were all a little excited and hurriedly agreed.

Chu Yuqiang stood beside him, waited for their excitement to subside slightly, and carefully asked the last question:

"Your Highness, whose body size is the standard for the production of these costumes? Do you use His Highness's own for all? ”

In this strange era, in Tessie, high heels were worn by both men and women, and in Daming, skirts were also typical men's clothing designs.

In the eyes of the craftsmen of this era, these extremely simple clothes designed by Zhu Jingyuan, except for the capitalist suit, have no clear characteristics that can distinguish the gender of the audience.

So Chu Yuqiang had such a question.

Zhu Jingyuan was also a little stunned, the men's clothes in these clothes can be tried on by himself, but he can't just wear them by himself.

If you wear it yourself, you won't see the overall effect, and the key is that there are still a lot of women's clothes.

After a short period of thought, Zhu Jingyuan made an arrangement:

"Except for the skirt and high heels, give me the whole set, and make me a leather shoe with a normal sole.

"All the clothes, accessories, and shoes, make a set of ...... for each of Sister An Xiaona and Luo Feiya."

Chu Yuqiang and the craftsmen immediately agreed.

After Zhu Jingyuan finished speaking, he immediately realized that An Xiaona Xie was still a child, especially Luo Feiya was only ten years old, and it was not appropriate to wear high heels.

The point is, a preppy suit with heels is also not suitable, and heels with a pleated skirt are equally inappropriate.

So Zhu Jingyuan picked up the pen again:

"I'll draw a few more drawings, and you can have people make them together......"

Zhu Jingyuan drew the leather shoes in the typical uniform style, and since there were pleated skirts and such leather shoes, he drew the sailor's suit again.

In order to fit high heels and formal suits, women's business tube skirts were drawn.

While drawing these pictures, Zhu Jingyuan casually introduced the key points of production to the craftsmen, and there was basically no pause in his hands and mouths.

In the eyes of Chu Yuqiang and several craftsmen, Zhu Jingyuan was directly stunned by the clothes designed on the spot......

They all subconsciously thought that the previous design drawings had been prepared for a long time.

Now it seems like it's all improvisation.

And these design drafts look very distinctive, which is very outrageous.

His Royal Highness Prince Dashi is not a professional costume designer.

The drawings he drew were not industry-standard clothing design drawings, but rather introductory line drawings.

No one could understand why His Highness had such ability.

can only be considered to be talented.

Zhu Jingyuan didn't pay much attention to the reaction of the craftsmen, and checked a little after drawing all the drawings to confirm that there were no omissions.

Then it was directly assigned, and at the same time made the final details:

"Note that shirts and coats should be divided into men and women, with women being slimmer and men being slightly looser.

"You have to follow the instructions on the drawings and iron out obvious angular lines."

"Understood, we made a note of ......"

Chu Yuqiang and the craftsmen agreed, and immediately called his subordinates to redraw an additional copy of all the design drawings on the spot.

Zhu Jingyuan instructed the housekeeper of the palace to take out the body size data of himself, Sister An Xiaona and Luo Feiya and distribute it to all the craftsmen.

These data are ready-made, and there is no need to wait for someone to come back to measure on site.

Because the southern hemisphere is about to reach summer, Sister An Xiaona and Luo Feiya have just measured their body data and are ready to send summer clothes.

Zhu Jingyuan's data is measured once a month.

The design drawings were redrawn, and all the craftsmen represented them together, and went back to make clothes quickly.

Five days passed in a flash, and Chu Yuqiang and the craftsmen came to the palace again and sent the finished clothes, decorations, and shoes.

These people moved several large boxes, because there were quite a lot of things.

Counting Zhu Jingyuan, there are a total of four people, each with three sets of clothes, a lot of accessories, several pairs of shoes, and all of them have prepared double copies.

The housekeeper and Guan Tianpei carefully inspected all the things on behalf of them, and after confirming that there were no unreported items, they were sent to Zhu Jingyuan's study.

Zhu Jingyuan instructed the servants to put away the clothes made for him by the Royal Garment Firm, and prepare to take them directly to the ship of the Great Food Country.

The royal ready-to-wear was made for Sister An Xiaona and Luo Feiya, and the three maidservants were also put in first.

Then prepare four strips, take out the clothes of the four people made by other individual craftsmen, and display them on them in different categories.

Zhu Jingyuan first picked up the most typical jewelry, a black silk top hat.

The morphology is completely in line with their own requirements, after all, they have given relatively accurate images and data.

The craftsmen specially recruited by the palace are the best in the entire Cape Huangzhuang City, and there is no fault in the craftsmanship.

Zhu Jingyuan took a few other clothes and checked them, and they all met his requirements.

After a general look, Zhu Jingyuan nodded with a satisfied smile:

"Very good job, put away my clothes first, and go and call Sister An Xiaona and Luo Feiya over......"

Because he was about to leave Huangzhuang in the Western Cape, Zhu Jingyuan's three "maidservants" had dropped out of school in the past two days, and they would go back to Daming to find a place to transfer to the class.

After a while, the grandmother in the backyard called the three little girls in.

In the past three months, Zhu Jingyuan would go to the courtyard where they lived when he was free.

Look at their living conditions and ask them about their studies.

Specially instructed some knowledge that cannot be learned in school, and instilled in them various concepts that are unique to them.

While cultivating business managers, it is also to show that they attach importance to avoid other servants in the palace from having any ideas that they should not have.

When Zhu Jingyuan cultivated the three of them, he slowly realized a problem.

I'm almost doing real people now......

At the same time, after three months of familiarity, the three maidservants have fully adapted to life here.

After long-term contact, the three of them have a better and better impression of Zhu Jingyuan

They all felt that Prince Dashi was the most amiable and benevolent high-ranking nobleman in the world.

It is also natural to become more and more trusting and worshipful.

What I want to do now is to continue to study and grow hard, and help Zhu Jingyuan manage various industries in the future......

and having children without forgetting the original intention......

Now when I heard Zhu Jingyuan's call, I thought that Zhu Jingyuan was going to give them a lesson again, but after entering the door, I saw a large group of outsiders.

Then I also saw a large number of clothes on several bars.

The three little girls were all taken aback, and they were all full of doubts, but they were still very well-behaved and greeted first:

"I've seen His Highness ......"

Zhu Jingyuan bowed his head lightly, pointed to the three strips and said:

"These are the clothes I designed, the three of you change them in turn, show me the effect of the upper body, and it will be yours in the future......"

The three little girls were stunned for a moment, and then immediately showed a surprised expression.

When Zhu Jingyuan usually taught them, he had already shown an unusually broad knowledge, but the matter of designing clothes was still too unexpected.

Moreover, the number of clothes and shoes on the three bars is a bit unexpected, and it looks like there are at least three sets of clothes per person.

The key to getting so many new clothes at once is designed by His Royal Highness Prince Dashi himself.

The three little girls were all excited when they realized this.

"Your Highness...... Clothes designed for us personally? ”

"Your Highness, so many clothes...... Are they all for us? ”

"Ah, thank you, Your Highness, for the reward......"

The three little girls are all clever people, although they are extremely excited in their hearts, they quickly reacted and solemnly bowed to thank them.

Zhu Jingyuan beckoned the craftsmen to leave the room and wait in the living room next to it, leaving a grandmother to guide the three little girls to change their clothes.

A few minutes later, the three little girls walked out one after another.

Zhu Jingyuan only glanced at it, and almost couldn't help laughing.

Sister An Xiaona is twelve years old, Luo Feiya has just turned ten years old, and the first outfit that these three little girls try on is a "capitalist" suit.

Black tuxedo, white shirt and waistcoat, suit trousers, and the key is which silk top hat.

It's an inherently fun combination.

The key is that this outfit has its own emoji effect in Zhu Jingyuan's eyes.

The three little girls are also a little unnatural, and they always feel that this set of clothes on them is weird.

It doesn't look like aristocratic or high-end clothing, but the materials used and the craftsmanship are top-notch.

The style design is not like women's clothing at all, but they are all cut to fit their own figures.

An Xiaona was the most outgoing, blushing slightly, and asked Zhu Jingyuan directly:

"Your Highness...... How does it feel? ”

Zhu Jingyuan held back his laughter and kept smiling as naturally as possible:

"Looks pretty good, turn around and look at me ......"

The three little girls didn't think much about it, and moved their bodies according to Zhu Jingyuan's requirements, so that Zhu Jingyuan could observe the overall effect.

Chu Yuqiang stood beside Zhu Jingyuan and said with emotion:

"It's not a traditional aristocratic look, but it now looks high-end.

"The style is obviously men's clothing, but in the three little girls, there is a playful and cute feeling."

Zhu Jingyuan smiled and nodded:

"That's what you want, but in adult men, there will be another effect......"

Chu Yuqiang praised again and said:

"Although Your Highness has never studied design at all, these ideas are really admirable."

At the same time, there was another Boer craftsman next to him, who was the trouser maker in this garment.

The old tailor, who was in his fifties, listened to the conversation between Zhu Jingyuan and Chu Yuqiang, and opened his mouth with a little entanglement.

In a very strong accent, he said:

"Your Royal Highness, you should just let these three maids show you the effect of the costume, and you shouldn't go to Tessie to sell the pants worn by women, right?"

Zhu Jingyuan was noncommittal:

"It depends on the situation, is this a serious question?"

The old tailor nodded earnestly and said:

"In most of the countries where Tessy wears pants, it is illegal for a woman to wear pants......"

At this moment, Zhu Jingyuan was stunned:

"Ah......h Women wear pants? It turned out to be illegal? ”

Several other Boer craftsmen also nodded their heads to help confirm the news.

Chu Yuqiang also realized this problem, and at the same time thought of the other clothes designed by Zhu Jingyuan, so he reminded him:

"Yes, Your Highness, it is illegal for a woman to wear pants in most of the Tessie, at least it is illegal to go out with only pants.

"At the same time, it is also illegal to show the thighs, and the calves and arms should not be exposed.

"But it was legal for women to show their breasts, and it even became a trend for a while......

"In most places, it is also illegal for women to wear men's clothing."

In fact, one of the crimes of Joan of Arc in France is that she wore men's clothes as a woman.

Until 1932, the famous American movie star Marlena Dietrisy was arrested by the police for shopping in pants.

It wasn't until after World War II that women in the Tessie countries were gradually allowed to wear trousers.

It was not until January 31, 2003 that France officially repealed the law that "Parisian women are not allowed to wear trousers".

The process of women striving for the right to wear men's clothes is an important thread in the activities related to the struggle for social status of women in Tessie.

Women in the upper class of the East will not go out only in pants, and neither men nor women will do that.

Men and women at the bottom of the class do not care whether they can wear pants or not in order to facilitate their labor.

There is also a clear distinction between men's and women's clothing in ancient Orientals, but the existence of traditional literary and artistic works such as Mulan Ci proves that the ancient matter of women disguising themselves as men is not a sin at all, but a very inspirational story.

In fact, in ancient times in the Great East, women went out, and in order to avoid unnecessary trouble, it was very common for women to dress up as men.

If you look at the past, you will find that Easterners are much more tolerant than Westerners in many things.

Homosexuality is a similar situation, there is no legalization in the East, they have not been illegal in the first place......

Westerners will always be more serious in places that Easterners don't expect.

If these are more true, if they have nothing to do with Zhu Jingyuan, forget it, the key is that this time it will hinder his new clothing plan.

So Zhu Jingyuan couldn't help but complain:

"What kind of rules are this? Go back and let Honglu Temple inform Xiyi to change all this kind of law! ”

Chu Yuqiang said with some uncertainty:

"In fact, in our Ming Dynasty, if a woman shows her arms and legs, it will also be considered immoral.

"At the same time, people with status, men and women will not go out with only pants......"

Zhu Jingyuan immediately said:

"Not being able to show your legs and arms can be considered conservative, but at the same time you can show your breasts what kind of rule is it?

"We don't just go out with pants to be decent, is it a bad brain to go out with just pants in it?

"The point is, it's illegal for women to wear men's clothes, which fool made the law?"

Chu Yuqiang didn't know how to answer this question, he was just a craftsman manager, not a diplomat or a sociologist......

Zhu Jingyuan complained a few words here, and found a pen and paper to write down the matter.

Zhu Jingyuan really planned to let Honglu Temple negotiate with the Taixi countries.

It's not just a matter of having nothing to do, it's a reason to interfere in Tessie's affairs.

Pushing for the legalization of pants and men's clothing for Tessie women can make Tessie women more ambitious.

At the same time, it is also a means to create a division in Tessie's society......
