After spending almost an hour in this high-end children's clothing store, the little girl originally planned to buy only two sets of clothes, but at Ning Qinghua's request, Cao Xiaoqing had no choice but to pick out a dozen or so sets of clothes.
These dozen or so sets of clothes, not counting others, just the dress, were priced at five figures, which made the drivers on the side secretly dumbfounded. The total price of all the clothes was estimated to be around 100,000 yuan.
From the beginning, Li Kaiji felt that the other party had an extraordinary background and spent more than 100,000 yuan to buy some clothes for the little girl. From the perspective of the Li family's children, it was normal, so there was no surprise at all.
However, what makes Li Kaiji feel strange is that if in the past, his cousin would have made a fuss about buying clothes if she saw other people's children buying so many new clothes at once. But today, I just picked one set, and there was no fuss or fuss at all, and I was very well-behaved.
What¡¯s special is that I just looked down on that little girl, but it was just an hour later. I don¡¯t know what happened, but I kept following her behind her. It was such a shameless thing to do.
When did the Li family¡¯s aloof ¡°little princess¡± become a follower of other children?
The girl's dress was available, but Ning Qinghua's evening dress was yet to be found. Fortunately, Li Kaiji, a local, heard that Ning Qinghua wanted to buy a dress. Without saying a word, he took it to another high-end restaurant on the same floor. Men's clothing store. But after going around for a while, Ning Qinghua was still not satisfied.
"Brother Ning, most of these dresses are of the same style. Men are not as good as women. What matters is not the style, but the fabric and workmanship."
¡°I was never very satisfied with seeing Ning Qinghua, but Li Kaiji was good-tempered. Explain on the side.
"If I'm not afraid of making Brother Li laugh, I have never worn this dress in my life, and it still feels awkward. Is there anything more Chinese-style?"
Ning Qinghua¡¯s words made Li Kaiji a little stunned. In many wealthy gatherings in Xiangjiang, there are indeed many people of the older generation who like to wear Tang suits, but now. Let alone young people of my own generation, even my father's generation rarely wears Chinese clothes to attend banquets. Ning Qinghua¡¯s age. She is two years younger than me, but she likes to wear Chinese clothes.
However, since Ning Qinghua took the initiative to ask. Li Kaiji naturally would not refuse. Through the exchange just now, Li Kaiji also had some understanding of the other party's temperament. Like myself, the Ning Qinghua in front of me is probably a very independent person. Since he said he wants Chinese style, he is definitely not willing to wear these Western-style dresses to attend the banquet.
¡°However, Li Kaiji really doesn¡¯t know much about these Chinese-style Tang suits and other clothes. Where to look, I had no choice but to call my grandfather.
As the boss of the world¡¯s Chinese business community, Li Chenglong always wears a Tang suit whenever he attends a banquet in Hong Kong or inland. Only when you go to European and American countries will you change into a Western dress. This is reflected in many of the older generation of Hong Kong business tycoons.
It was almost three o'clock in the afternoon after finally getting "information" from his grandfather. Without any delay, the group rushed to the Chinese-style clothing store that Li Chenglong often visited.
This store has a very small appearance. But there is a world inside, with three floors, selling Chinese clothing such as Tang suits and cheongsam.
Compared with the international famous brands in those shopping malls, the clothes in this store have no brand, but the price of each piece of clothing is not inferior to those of international famous brands. In particular, a pink cheongsam with a phoenix pattern in the window of the front door has a price tag as high as 700,000, which is definitely not affordable for ordinary people.
The owner of the store is also the chief tailor in the store, so he was a little surprised to see Ning Qinghua and his entourage. Today's young people rarely like Chinese clothes, especially in my own store. Any piece of clothing can easily cost tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands. The market demand is not large, and young people are even rarer among them. Even if there are one or two in a year, they are often gifts prepared for the elders in the family.
"Hello, I don't know what style the customer wants to order?"
Although he was curious in his heart, his face was still very enthusiastic. After all, for businessmen, everyone who comes is a guest, and kindness makes money.
"I want a dress for tonight!"
I glanced at the first floor of this store. Most of them were cheongsams, and there were only a few men's clothes. I couldn't help but frown slightly.
"Sir, the clothes we ordered will take at least a month. Tonight"
The boss couldn¡¯t help but have a troubled look on his face.
"Isn¡¯t there one ready-made? "
Li Kaiji took a step forward and pointed at the clothes in the store.
For those of the younger generation, most of the clothes are bought, and there are few tailor-made clothes. Of course, if it's a big event like getting married, that's a different matter.
¡°If the guests don¡¯t mind, of course!¡±
The boss was obviously very helpless about this kind of "stick". This kind of ready-made business is a rare occurrence in a year.
The first floor of this store is where customers are received. Most of the items on display are women's clothing, while men's clothing is on the second floor, while the tailoring studio is on the top floor of the third floor.
The group of people followed the boss up to the second floor, and it took no time at all. Ning Qinghua fell in love with a set of white Chinese clothes with dark patterns almost at a glance. This set of clothes is somewhat similar to the training clothes, but it has some improvements. It is not so sloppy and looks slimmer. Especially the dark patterns of yin and yang fish on the clothes make Ning Qinghua like it very much. . Obviously, this dark pattern is not an ordinary printing method, but a traditional embroidery technique, which requires a lot of time and effort.
"Just this one!"
The clothes in the store are different from ordinary clothing stores. Except for the few clothes displayed in the window, there are no price tags. The boss will keep records of all sample prices for future reference.
"Guest, I'm afraid this dress is a little too big."
This tailor is over sixty years old and has been working with scissors and rulers all his life. He is naturally experienced in this area and does not need to measure at all. After taking a quick look, I had a certain assessment in my mind.
¡°Aren¡¯t there smaller sizes?¡±
Li Kaiji on the other side obviously asked a rather idiotic question. These clothes are all samples. Under normal circumstances, they will not be sold at all. How can there be the same clothes in other sizes in the store.
The boss shook his head helplessly, with a wry smile on his face.
¡°Then choose another style!¡±
"No need. Just this one, boss, I'll add the money. Hurry up now, I'll help!"
Ning Qinghua obviously liked this suit of clothes and said to the boss with a smile.
Help?
The boss was stunned by Ning Qinghua¡¯s words. This is no ordinary clothing store. The three masters in the shop all have at least twenty years of experience in this industry. Even if they have a few apprentices, each of them has been in this industry for about ten years on average. The young man in front of me looks a little older. Even if he has really done it, he has several years of experience.
????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Even after it is completed, the customer still needs to try it on in person. If it is not modified several times, it will not be considered complete at all.
¡°It¡¯s a complete joke to have to complete an outfit in a few hours.
"I'm sorry. We don't accept this business!"
In the eyes of the boss, Ning Qinghua is just here to cause trouble.
Seeing the suppressed anger on the boss's face, Ning Qinghua knew that the other party had obviously misunderstood. In fact, if she didn't really like this outfit, Ning Qinghua wouldn't be willing to be so abrupt. But with his control over his body, Ning Qinghua believed it. The manual work that takes others several days or even ten days to complete does not require much time at all.
¡°Boss, you don¡¯t believe me?¡±
"Young man, every garment master here has decades of experience, but not in those factories where all processes are done by hand."
¡°You¡¯ll know after you try it!¡±
Ning Qinghua looked confident, looking at the old tailor in front of him with a smile who was old enough to be his grandfather.
"All right!"
As soon as the words came out of his mouth, the boss was shocked. How could he possibly agree to such a ridiculous request?
¡°Then please boss, please lead the way.¡±
Ning Qinghua just used a little trick. As soon as he heard the other party nodding, he quickly blocked the other party's escape route, leaving no room for change for the boss at all.
"Young man, you have to say it first. If it doesn't work, you still need to pay for the materials."
For this arrogant young man, the boss obviously no longer treats him as an ordinary customer, and his tone of voice seems a bit stiff.
"Wait, I'm going too!"
When Li Kaiji on the side saw this situation, he was also curious. He immediately followed and left the two little girls to the driver's care.
"Your uncle can also make clothes?"
The little girl from the Li family asked Cao Xiaoqing with a confused look.
"certainly!"
Cao Xiaoqing replied proudly.
On the third floor, including the boss, there are two master tailors and two other apprentices who are about thirty years old. The other master tailor is resting at home today.
Although he was quite unhappy with Ning Qinghua, the boss still measured his measurements very carefully according to the rules, recorded them one by one, and then found the material.
When Ning Qinghua's sister-in-law He Juan was young, she was also considered to be very handy in Shihe Village. Most of Ning Qinghua's clothes when she was a child were sewn by her sister-in-law herself. Although most of them were remade old clothes, the stitching was fine, and Ning Qinghua's daily life I pay great attention to the fact that a piece of clothing can often be worn for a long time.
"I'll cut it!"
After the old master drew a pattern on the material, Ning Qinghua didn't hesitate at all. He picked up the scissors on one side and started using them with his bare hands. His posture did not look like a skilled hand, but every time he cut the scissors, he was extremely smooth.
After cutting out the first shape, the two masters and two apprentices present took the cut piece of material and looked at it carefully. They found that it was exactly the same, and there were no rough edges.
This skill alone impressed everyone. Although the boss was convinced that he could do it, the time it took was many times that of Ning Qinghua, and more importantly, he couldn't do it as easily as Ning Qinghua.
This young man is definitely not a tailor, but his hands are unimaginably stable.
Only when the mind is steady can the hands be steady, this young man is amazing!
,please.
