Chapter 37 The Shop
The Ye family's ready-to-wear shop has finally officially opened.
Ye Qiong named the ready-to-wear shop "Qiluo Building". On the day of the opening of Qiluo Building, Ye Qiong asked people to set off firecrackers outside the door, and the woman who had already had good things came over to take a look, and saw the puppets with clothes customized by Ye Qiong in the ready-to-wear shop, and said with a smile: "This is good, it is much clearer than looking at the clothes directly." ”
Qiluo Lou has already arranged two good-looking and talkative women, one is the daughter-in-law of the second son of Steward Ye, everyone calls her Ye Er's family, and the other is Huang Li, the daughter of Fan's mother who insisted on staying when Ye Mansion dismissed her subordinates before, in addition to this, she also bought two little girls with innocent backgrounds, named Aya'er and Juan'er.
Although several people are good-looking, their temperament and body shape are very different, Ye Erjia is a little rich, Huang Li is thin and tall, Aya'er is charming and delicate, but Juan'er has a heroic spirit between her eyebrows.
Seeing that a guest came to the door, Ye Erjia hurriedly stepped forward to greet him: "But it's not, you see, this fabric and pattern are all only available in our Qiluo Building." ”
The woman hesitated to come in and asked, "But look at this material...... It doesn't cost a lot of money. ”
Ye Erjia smiled and said: "Don't be afraid, there are expensive and cheap ones in Qiluo Building, besides, our girl said that in the first month of opening, the clothes are only sold at eighty percent price!" ”
Ye Er's family had actually secretly looked at this woman's dress a long time ago, and knew that although this woman was not a famous lady as Ye Er girl said, she was also a female dependant of a rich and noble family, and she was one of the two types of guests in Qiluo Pavilion, so she beckoned the woman in.
When the woman heard this, she became excited, and stepped into the Qiluo Building, but when she saw that the shop was very empty, only a few puppets were placed, and several small rooms were separated by a screen, and she looked much more elegant than an ordinary ready-to-wear shop, so she asked, "How do you sell clothes?" ”
Ye Erjia led the woman to the cubicle, Aya'er immediately brought tea, and the woman drank it, it was warm purple ginger tea, which was the most suitable to drink in such a wet and cold autumn day, and suddenly added a little good feeling in her heart. Ye Erjia saw the opportunity, handed the woman a booklet, and said, "Look, the first few pages are the fabric cut and pasted, and the name and price of the variety are written next to it, and the back is the clothing drawing, you can choose." ”
The woman was amazed, and Ye Erjia pointed to the clothes on her body again, and said with a smile: "Look, the clothes on my body are from the shop, and my body is about the same as yours, you can also directly use me as a reference." ”
The woman looked at Ye Er's family carefully, obviously as rich as herself, but because the lower skirt was specially tightened and the skirt was enlarged, she looked much thinner, and immediately laughed: "This dress is good, I want this version of your body, and then pick two fabrics to make two, so it's decided." ”
Ye Erjia smiled and pointed to the flowers on his cuffs and said, "However, the clothes sold here are all marked with the Qiluo Building, you see, mine is here, can you accept it?" ”
The woman took a closer look, and originally thought it was just an ordinary group flower, but after a closer look, she realized that it also cleverly integrated the three words "Qiluo Lou", which did not affect the dress and effect, so she naturally did not disagree.
The first order was set.
A customer walked out with a smile and satisfaction, and naturally more people would patronize, and soon many people stepped into the ready-to-wear shop, and the whole shop was lively.
Ye Qiong, who was waiting in the box, listened to Steward Chen's report, and her heart was slightly relieved.
The ladies of the rich and noble families say that they buy clothes, but they just ask for good quality and low price, eighty percent of the price is the threshold of attraction, and in the end, what can make them willing to pay their wallets is the quality of the clothes. Qiluolou's clothes were all personally checked by Ye Qiong and Ye Yao, so she naturally didn't worry.
How to sell clothes into the circle of noblewomen in Beijing is the real problem.
Ye Qiong was thinking about it, Ye Yao had already brought someone over, and said with a smile: "Qiong'er, who do you think is coming?" ”
Ye Qiong looked back and laughed, the person who came was Gu Congyan, and there were two girls behind her.
Gu Congyan was wearing the clothes that Ye Qiong gave last time, the upper body was a jade-colored woven gold rhombic cardigan, and the lower body was a silver-red butterfly skirt full of embroidery on the ground. Gu Congyan was tall, and Ye Qiong specially asked the tailor to raise the waistline slightly, which made Gu Congyan's figure even more slender. Because Gu Congyan has a lively personality and a big pace, the butterfly on the skirt is the finishing touch, moving like a hundred butterflies fluttering by, which shows Gu Congyan's beauty.
The eyes of the two girls behind Gu Congyan were straight when they saw her skirt, and before Gu Congyan could speak, one of them, who was about fifteen years old, introduced himself: "I am Yun Qianyi, my cousin from Congyan, and my father's commander of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses. This is the second daughter of Shaoqing of Taifu Temple, named Tang Luxue. We listened to Yan and said that her clothes were made in your family's ready-to-wear shop, so we specially followed to take a look. ”
Tang Luxue, who was younger, shouted happily: "Two Sister Ye, I also want to make the same skirt as Sister Congyan!" ”
Ye Qiong's expression was kind, but she said in a firm tone: "No, you can't make the same dress." ”
Everyone present was stunned, Yun Qianyi and Tang Luxue's faces instantly turned cold, Gu Congyan wanted to say a few words to ease the atmosphere, Ye Qiong had already said: "Congyan has a lively personality and a tall figure, the skirt made for her is only suitable for her, not necessarily for you." ”
Tang Luxue, who wanted to get angry, was stunned, Ye Qiong had already smiled and took the atlas over and pointed it to her: "Why don't you take a look at this set?" This set is suitable for girls who are eleven or twelve years old and have not yet grown up. You are delicate and cute, suitable for brighter colors, and the colors of this row are suitable for you. What patterns do you like? ”
Tang Luxue, who wanted to get angry, lost her temper all of a sudden, and said a little dizzily: "I, I like rabbits, can I embroider a rabbit?" ”
"Absolutely." Ye Qiong smiled, pointed to a place in the drawing and said, "How about embroidering two rabbits that are pounding medicine here, and then embroidering a moon hidden in the clouds in the placket." ”
Tang Luxue looked at the drawings, as if she had seen herself wearing beautiful clothes, and immediately made a decision: "This is good, I want this." ”
Yun Qianyi was surprised to see it on the side, but just a few words made Tang Luxue angry, this girl from the Ye family is not simple.
Seeing this, Ye Yao also learned from Ye Qiong to take the booklet to Yun Qianyi, and pointed to her skirt and said, "Miss Yun is the same age as me, why don't you take a look at this set?" ”
Yun Qianyi smiled and nodded.
Ye Qiong answered in a timely manner: "The signboard of our Qiluo Building is unique, and we will not sell two identical dresses. Rest assured, the clothes you make will be the most suitable for you. ”
The girls' eyes lit up.
The nobles in Beijing like to compare the most, and the "uniqueness" of Qiluo Lou coincides with their thoughts.
Ye Yao took Tang Luxue and Yun Qianyi to the side to measure their shapes first, and Gu Congyan smiled and said to Ye Qiong, who was lonely, "My friend is interesting enough." ”
Ye Qiong was stunned.
The word friend, she hadn't heard it for a long time.
In her previous life, she regarded He Yanyan as a friend, but she didn't want to be stabbed in the back, and the remaining Lu Shaodan, who could barely be regarded as a friend, was very different from her.
In this life, she and Lu Shaodan are still friends, but in the future, after Lu Shaodan recovers his identity, I don't know what kind of situation will be between them.
I didn't expect to get Gu Congyan's "friend" in this life.
Ye Qiong's heart was warm and sour, and she nodded with a smile: "Of course, thank you, Congyan." Isn't your mother going to give you a photo feast? In order to show that my friend is also interesting enough, I have decided to design you a unique riding outfit for you, and keep you shining."
Gu Congyan's eyes lit up, and he said embarrassedly: "Then trouble you." ”
……………………
After Gu Congyan brought two noble girls to the door, the ready-to-wear shops came to the door one after another, and the first to arrive was Gu Congyan's mother Yun.
The Yun family originally came with the purpose of thanking Ye Qiong for taking care of Gu Congyan, but he didn't expect to be attracted by the clothes inside as soon as he came, and immediately ordered new winter clothes for the ladies in the house, and even said very regretfully: "It's a pity that the autumn clothes have already been made, even if you set a new clothes here, you won't have a chance to put on the body, otherwise even the autumn clothes will be made here with you!" ”
Steward Chen was very busy, and a few embroidery tailors were too busy, but fortunately, Ye Qiong had already prepared, and asked Xie to write a letter to the Xie family in Jiangnan as early as when he decided to open a ready-to-wear shop, and asked him to help send a few reliable embroidery tailors over there.
Jiangnan Xie's family is the Xie family's family, and after receiving the letter, he asked the embroidery tailor to pack up his things and come over, and when he arrived, he just caught up with the big list of Gu Mansion.
The person who replied to the letter was Ye Qiong's biological aunt, Ye Qishu's sister Ye Xilan, and the letter earnestly asked about the soul case and Ye Qishu's condition, and also asked her grandmother if she was in good health, so that Xie Shi could find her if she had any problems.
Ye Qiong was very curious about Ye Xilan, when Ye Xilan got married, she was not born yet. In her previous life, when Ye Xilan went to Beijing, Ye Qiong was already married to Zhang Xudong, and the Queen Mother was still there at that time, and she and Zhang Xudong still got along well.
She met Ye Xilan in the Korean Mansion, Ye Xilan's eyes turned red when she saw her, she only grabbed her hand, but she didn't say anything, but left Ye Qiong a lot of property for her to live by. Ye Qiong felt at that time that her little aunt must have cared about her, but she couldn't see her because of something unspeakable.
The business of the shop is booming, but Ye Qiong always has a stone hanging in her heart.
Wen Lei's leg heard that even the imperial doctor said that it was going to be lame, did Wen Tingting really calm down?
Sure enough, on the second day after receiving Gu's order, a sloppy woman came to the door, and as soon as she got closer, many guests covered their noses and walked out of the shop.
The woman walked all the way and scratched her scalp and neck desperately, Ye Qiong realized that something was wrong, and immediately asked the specially arranged family to guard the Qiluo Building to stop people at the door.
Seeing this, the woman blushed and shouted, "Get out of the way, why don't you let me in!" ”
Steward Chen, who had been instructed by Ye Qiong, walked out with a sneer and said, "You are sick, right?" We're here to sell clothes, and there are customers here, so we can't let you in! ”
A few of the guests who had wanted to go out suddenly stopped and looked at the sloppy woman with disgust.
It's good to be dignified, what are you doing outside the door, and you don't let people go!
Seeing this, the woman sat down, stretched her neck and shouted, "It's really unreasonable, the victim is not allowed to be killed!" I bought the clothes in your Qiluo Building, and who knew that your clothes were not clean and there were lice, which made me bite like this. ”
As she spoke, the woman pointed to her face and neck, and sure enough, there were many red rashes.
Steward Chen's face changed, and the people around him were also startled, pointing to Qiluo Lou and muttering.
Seeing this, Ye Qiong, who was hiding in the store, called Aya'er to come over and give a few words, Aya'er walked behind the counter and took the booklet and handed it to Steward Chen, and said in Steward Chen's ear, Steward Chen was relieved and sneered: "You said that our clothes have lice, what about the clothes, you have to show evidence!" ”
The woman pointed to her garments and said, "This is the proof." ”
Steward Chen laughed, picked up the booklet in his hand and said, "You said that it was our clothes from Qiluo Building, but there is no one in our sales records, and there is no one in the tailor's body data that matches you, where did you buy the clothes?" ”
The woman was taken aback, but still argued, "Who said that your records cannot be falsified......
Steward Chen said loudly: "Every piece of clothing sold in Qiluo Lou will be marked with the mark of Qiluo Lou in different positions according to the different clothes when it is sold, and the tailor will point it out to the guests when they design it, and every guest knows and accepts it, and praises us for our good design." ”
The person who looked like a steward who had ordered clothes for his wife in the family immediately nodded and said, "Yes, I will say it when I buy clothes." ”
Someone else said to the troublesome woman Nunu: "I'll just say, Qiluolou's clothes are very visible, and her clothes look like a bucket, how can they be sold by Qiluolou." ”
The woman's forehead began to sweat, and she turned her head to run away, but was immediately taken down by the household.
Steward Chen said with a cold face: "Send it to the yamen." ”
In the shop, Ye Qiong sighed.
Ye Yao sat next to him and frowned, and said, "If you send it to the yamen, I'm afraid it's just a beating, and you won't be able to ask the people behind the scenes." ”
Ye Qiong said coldly: "If this plan fails, there will be a next time, and the people behind the scenes should also show their heads in person." ”
