BXBX NOVEL Chapter 105: Pretty Court opens
After thinking for a while, Tie Zhu only said that His Highness should not have encountered any danger. They are more than just a small number of people in the palace. If something happened to His Highness, it is impossible for them to not receive any news.
Shen Mingjiao also knew this, in his previous life he traveled far away so many times, and each time he returned safely.
Although she thought so, she still felt a little uncomfortable, in order to divert her attention. She began to plan for the reopening of Pretty Court.
It has been nearly a month since she went to the Pretty Pavilion for an accident. During this time, the interior and exterior decoration of the Pretty Pavilion has basically been done. The only thing that is missing is the ready-made clothes on the shelves, but it is almost the same in the past two days.
Although she plans to do private customization, such a big store can't be empty, right? She found all the patterns she drew in her spare time,
Selected together with the embroiderers in the mansion, and then made changes according to the current fashion, and asked Madam Tao to hire some women who can do show work to help, and finally finished a batch of ready-made clothes.
So she went to the Beautiful Pavilion that day, discussed it with Madam Tao, and didn't choose any date, so she chose to open tomorrow.
The next day, when the time was almost up, Madam Tao asked someone to hang firecrackers at the door, and the Pretty Pavilion would reopen.
People on the whole street were attracted by the unexpected sound of firecrackers, and they couldn't help being even more surprised when they saw it.
Obviously it was a new store opening, but the entrance was very deserted. There were neither flower baskets nor guests supporting the venue.
Nurse Tao stood at the door, and glanced lightly at the crowd watching the excitement.
Thinking that this is a good day for the opening of the new store, she pulled her lips stiffly. Trying to squeeze out a professional smile.
However, she is a prisoner who has worked in the Palace Punishment Department for many years. Even though she has left her old profession for so many years, it is still a bit difficult for her to have a soft expression like others.
So the original professional smile made by her is more like a grim sneer. A child passing by was so frightened that he couldn't help shrinking behind the adult.
Aunt Tao cleared her throat, and said lightly, "Today, the Beautiful Pavilion is open, and all clothes and accessories are 20% off."
After speaking, he turned around and entered the lobby without looking at the crowd.
The crowd watching the excitement looked at each other, looking at the luxurious decoration at the door. Then someone couldn't help muttering:
"The owner behind this beautiful pavilion is afraid that they have too much money to burn. If such a shopkeeper is hired, it doesn't make any difference whether the store opens or not!"
Although this is the case, it is human nature to watch the excitement, and most of the people who visit this street are women. Women are naturally curious about newly opened stores, especially those that sell clothes and jewelry.
Immediately, several wives stepped into the beautiful pavilion hesitantly, and the rest of them were eager to try when they saw it.
When they saw the clothes in the lobby, they couldn't walk.
Really, so beautiful!
It is different from other cloth Zhuang clothing stores where the shelves on both sides are full of clothes.
On both sides of the spacious lobby of Meimei Pavilion. Each piece of clothing is slightly spaced apart, so that although there are not many clothes, it gives people a more intuitive visual impact.
Seeing that the person who had just entered hadn't come out for a long time, the people outside looked at each other and followed them in. The originally empty lobby instantly became lively.
Nurse Tao let out a heavy sigh of relief, and pulled her lips stiffly at Shen Mingjiao who was sitting on the side.
Shen Mingjiao was also very satisfied looking at this bustling scene. She thinks that the opening day they chose is still very good. Next month will be the birthdays of Jing and Emperor, and the surrounding countries will send people over at that time, and the scene will be very lively.
And whenever there are major banquets and celebrations in the capital, the business of the major clothing and jewelry shops will be particularly good.
Standing behind her, there was joy in the eyes of an outstanding woman.
Her name is Tang Anfu. Her mother used to be a master of Suzhou embroidery in the south of the Yangtze River. Later, she was hired by a high-ranking official to be a female celebrity for a girl in the mansion. She accidentally fell into the lotus pond in the mansion and drowned.
She was left as an orphan and was sold to Ren Yazi by her cruel aunt. Fortunately, she inherited her mother's talent in embroidery, otherwise she would probably be sold to Hualou based on her appearance.
But because of her looks, no wife would buy her no matter how good her embroidery work is.
Amid the prostitute's increasingly ugly face, she was brought into Su Wang's mansion.
From then on, she no longer had to be terrified every day, but just studied embroidery with peace of mind.
Another embroiderer, Hongzan, who followed from the side, was also very happy. After all, for an embroiderer, it is a happy thing for her clothes to be recognized by others.
Different from Tang Anfu, Hongzan's personality is obviously more lively. She asked Shen Mingjiao curiously: "The princess doesn't seem to be worried that there are no customers in the shop at all!"
Shen Mingjiao replied very confidently: "The smell of wine is not afraid of the depth of the alley, and our clothes are so beautiful. Naturally, we don't have to worry about customers not coming."
Mother Tao also mentioned to him before that she should not hire a smart shopkeeper, or spend money to hire some people to support the scene.
Shen Mingjiao didn't think it was necessary, it's the same sentence, as long as the clothes are nice enough, no one will come to the door.
Although these clothes look good, the prices that can be set are not cheap. Some are even more expensive than the Jinxiufang opposite, so although there are many people who see them, not many actually pay for them.
Shen Mingjiao doesn't insist on this, she mainly wants to do private customization, and when she gradually becomes famous, these clothes will naturally not worry about selling.
Although the guests who come in today are all dressed well, most of them are far from being rich, so they are hesitant.
Shen Mingjiao swept her eyes, and her gaze stayed for a moment on a little girl who was wearing an apricot-yellow skirt with a slightly savage look. She was the daughter of the Jiang family, the largest imperial merchant in the capital.
She stood up and walked towards the girl. She had a veil covering her face at this time. The exposed eyebrows and eyes were also disguised, and if she was not very familiar with someone, she would basically not be able to recognize her.
No way, her reputation is so bad, if these people know that she owns the Pretty Pavilion, who would dare to buy clothes? Not to mention asking her to tailor it.
From a distance, I heard a slightly savage female voice shouting: "What are you doing in a daze? Why don't you wrap up your clothes?"
The maid next to her tried her best to persuade her: "Miss, this dress is obviously too small for you, why buy it back!"
Jiang Wanling shook off the maid's hand and said indifferently:
"So what, whoever made me fall in love with this dress, I'm happy if I can't wear it in the room and look at it."
This girl was born with a loud voice, which attracted many people around her to look at her. Looking along the line of sight, it is a very beautiful Baidie wearing a flower skirt.
Seeing this dress, everyone immediately felt that there was nothing wrong with her idea. Just looking at the price again, the agitated mood instantly calmed down.
The close maid also said: "Girl, how about two hundred taels? It's enough to buy four or five embroiderers, why don't we go to Jinxiufang across the street to have a look."
Before going out, my wife told me not to let the girl spend money so lavishly.
Jiang Wanling didn't care, her eyes seemed to be glued to the dress.
