Chapter 477: New Clothes
seemed to feel the ambition shown by Cui Wenqing, Chang Wen was also excited for a while, and asked with concern: "In that case, uncle, what should we do?" ”
Cui Wenqing thought for a moment and asked, "At present, among the shops you have investigated and know that are going to be used to open shops, which one is closest to the Silk Chamber of Commerce?" ”
Chang Wen was obviously familiar with all the situations, and replied without thinking about it: "There are currently five shops in the North City that are interested in renting, and one of them is the closest to the Silk Chamber of Commerce, and the location is diagonally opposite Xingya Silk Village, and the distance between the two is at most twenty zhang. ”
"Twenty zhang? God help me! Cui Wenqing stroked his palm and smiled, and decided, "In that case, then the Armani clothing store will be opened there." ”
"Uncle, you're completely pulling out your teeth!" Chang Wen was taken aback, and then said with a wry smile, "Moreover, that piece of shop is located in the downtown of Beishi, and there is a small yard behind the three take-outs, and the rental price is not low. ”
Cui Wenqing said with a smile: "The geographical location is good, what does it matter if the price is more expensive, Changwen, you quickly reach a lease agreement with the owner of the store, ask him to rent the store to us, and step up the decoration of the store, and when the right opportunity comes, we will officially open the store." ”
"Okay, I'll do it right away." Chang Wenqing is the same age as Cui Wenqing, and he is also resolute in doing things, and immediately surrendered his orders.
After Chang Wen left, Cui Wenqing fell into contemplation alone.
As far as the current Armani clothing store is concerned, the sales of bra and underwear are very hot in many places, but in Luoyang City, Armani brand underwear bras are rare.
Just because of the blockade and monopoly of the Silk Chamber of Commerce, the Armani clothing store's bra and pants market has not been opened, even if Chang Wen has tried a lot, the results are very weak.
Moreover, the Silk Chamber of Commerce has imitated the bra pants of the Armani clothing store, and the effect of the clothes produced is similar, so in Luoyang City, many people do not know the brand Armani.
Since you want to open a store, it must mean that you must push new products and grasp the trend, so that you can make the clothing store prosperous.
But what kind of clothing should be introduced now, which is not only in line with the aesthetics of the ancients, but also acceptable to the general public?
In response to this problem, Cui Wenqing thought about it for most of the hour, and suddenly his eyes lit up, and he already had a way.
Instructed the lotus leaf to set up the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, Cui Wenqing picked up the brush and thought about it for a while, and then wrote and drew on a clean piece of rice paper.
The lotus leaf has been standing next to Cui Wenqing grinding for him, and from time to time he is contemplating the sketch drawn by Cui Wenqing.
But she saw that the drawing on the rice paper was a kind of clothing that she had never seen before.
Different from the short skirts that people wear through at present, this kind of clothes does not have extra layers of lining, and the placket is tied at the mouth, which seems to be simple and simple.
However, what makes people shine is that the lines of the clothes are very elegant and close-fitting, with a curvaceous beauty that highlights the woman's figure.
Lotus Ye was dumbfounded and asked, "Uncle, what is this kind of clothing called?" Is it worn under a short undergarment? ”
Cui Wenqing kept writing and replied without raising his head: "This thing is called a cheongsam, and it is the outermost layer of clothing worn by women. ”
Lotus Ye suddenly realized, looked at the sketch blankly, but did not speak.
Indeed, the new clothes that Cui Wenqing thought of were the cheongsam that could best show the beauty of oriental women.
Some scholars believe that its origin can be traced back to the deep clothes of the pre-Qin and Han dynasties, and after thousands of years of development, it has become the most common women's clothing in a certain turbulent era in later generations, and has also been identified as one of the national dresses.
At that time, it was common for men to wear tunics and women to wear cheongsams.
However, if the cheongsam is to be implemented in Daqi, there are a few points that are not good.
First, the cheongsam is short-sleeved or sleeveless, and even if a Daqi woman is bold, it is impossible for her arms to be exposed.
Second, the hem of the cheongsam skirt is too high, and it often has to expose the thighs, which is impossible for Daqi women to accept.
Therefore, Cui Wenqing made the following changes to the above two points.
The first is to completely change the cheongsam from sleeveless short sleeves to long sleeves, so that it can naturally avoid the risk of exposure.
The second is to greatly reduce the height of the hem of the cheongsam skirt, and at the same time, almost all women in Daqi will wear pants under the skirt, so this problem is solved.
After the improvement, the main advantages of the cheongsam have not been extinguished, and the graceful effect of highlighting the beauty of the Oriental woman's body is also the same as before.
It can be said that wearing a cheongsam, what can be reflected is the posture, if it can be worn with the bra, it can really be said that the woman's figure is beautiful.
Therefore, Cui Wenqing believes that this improved cheongsam will definitely be popular in Daqi.
However, having said that, Cui Wenqing's sketches did not draw more than a dozen, and because he was not very familiar with the cheongsam, many places needed to be improved, especially the problem of three measurements, which bothered him for a long time.
At first, he wanted to make Lotus Leaf a model and let him measure the appropriate body shape.
However, the lotus leaf is not fully developed, and can only be regarded as a little girl, which naturally cannot reflect the beauty of the cheongsam.
In addition to lotus leaves, the only women he is more familiar with are Zhixiu, but unfortunately Zhixiu has been married for many years after all, and she is a child's mother, and her body will inevitably be a little out of shape, so it will not work to let her be a model.
After thinking about it for a long time, Cui Wenqing was very embarrassed about the candidate, if he couldn't find a woman with the right ratio of measurements as a reference, the design of the cheongsam must be a mistake and a thousand miles wrong.
It's a pity that Zhe Zhao is no longer around, if Zhe Zhao is now in Luoyang, with her almost perfect figure, Cui Wenqing's problem will be solved.
Cui Wenqing thought about it for a long time, and only thought of a suitable candidate, but that person was a famous lady who had not yet come out of the cabinet, would she agree to such a request?

"Invite me to dinner in the evening? Why? ”
In the Guozijian Student Union, Sima Wei was quite surprised when she heard Cui Wenqing's sudden invitation.
Cui Wenqing said in anticipation of Ai Ai's words: "This, I think Weiwei is too busy after you become the vice president of the student union, so I want to invite you to the banquet to apologize." ”
Sima Wei said with some disbelief: "But Brother Wen Qing, the other vice chairmen are also busy, why don't you invite them together, but only invite me?" ”
Cui Wenqing smiled and sighed: "You and I have been working hard for the student union since the beginning of the discussion of the student union, and the credit is in order, so I just want to invite you alone tonight." ”
Sima Wei thought for a while, nodded and said, "Since that's the case, then okay, time and place?" ”
Hearing her agree, Cui Wenqing was overjoyed: "Today at dusk, the North City is full of buildings, and we will see you there." ”
