The first batch to come out were six women with high temples and fluttering skirts.
Ruqun is common women’s clothing in the Song Dynasty. The neckline can be round or square, and the skirt can be used on the right or left lapel. The color is mostly light and elegant, and there are not many accessories. Usually, jade ornaments are hung on the waist to hold down the hem of the skirt. In order to avoid being exposed due to strong wind or other reasons, the shawls on the shoulders are mostly light yellow, without any fancy.
Of course, for ordinary women in the Song Dynasty, it is even simpler on the basis of the above-mentioned simple service. There must be no jade rings on the waist. The silk is also omitted directly. When working daily, who still wears a streamer on the shoulder? Is it used as a towel to wipe sweat?
However, the skirts worn by the six women on the stage greatly shocked the eyes of hundreds of women on and off the stage; as far as the fabrics are concerned, they are mixed and matched with silk. The placket, neckline, hem, and hem of the skirt are decorated with lavender, blue, or pink moiré floral patterns, making the whole dress look lively and flexible.
The 'Jade Ring Ribbon' was replaced by an unknown ring. The material of the ring cannot be seen clearly, but it is densely wrapped with colored silk threads and decorated with colorful tassels. It looks as heavy as light if it is neither jade nor iron.
The shawl has been replaced by a piece of Liuhua brocade slung over the shoulders, eliminating the inconvenience of movement caused by the long shawl.
Accompanied by the drumbeat mixed with silk and bamboo, six women walked and appeared on the runway in a file, showing the unusual features of the skirts one by one. Although the six women were born in a brothel, their delicate faces after makeup were extremely glamorous. While stepping back and forth, the skirt flutters, the head looks forward, and the round fan shakes slightly, making people completely forget their identities, and they are transformed into women from a good family, Xiaojiabiyu;
There was thunderous applause and applause from the audience; the regular customers of the brothel moved their index fingers, they didn’t expect the old friends they patronized to dress up with such a temperament, and they made up their minds to go tonight to savor the taste again, Don't learn from the past, chew peonies and go directly to Hong Kong.
When everyone was mesmerized, the clear voice of the young maidservant on the stage rang out: "Dear folks and elders, this is the first women's Ru skirt launched by Suji Cloth Shop and Suji Clothing Shop. It is cut from silk. And some changes have been made; the price of the finished product is only five, and the first one hundred orderers enjoy a [-]% discount."
Two young servants moved two large wooden boards and arranged them on both sides of the color platform. The two lines of big characters on the top read: "Did you be filial to the mother who gave birth to you and raised you?"Be filial to her and buy her a new dress!Do you feel sorry for the lady who washes and cooks for you?Take pity on her and buy her a dress!
The material, price, and preferential conditions of this skirt are listed in small print below.
There was a lot of discussion in the audience. The eyes of the women in cloth clothes and hairpin skirts were shining, and they looked at the men around them with expectant eyes. But the whole family spends more than half a month.
The maidservant caught on the stage said in a timely and tender voice: "Suji implements preferential prices during the Dragon Boat Festival, and the regular five is a meager profit price. After the Dragon Boat Festival, the price will be adjusted to regular eight; during this period, the top 380 customized folks will enjoy A discount of [-]% off, a consistent five is actually only a consistent one, and at the same time, all the folks who customize clothes will each get a number plate, and a lottery will be held every day. The first prize will be a huge sum of five. [-] winners of the third prize, ten pieces of Huzhou sweet-scented osmanthus rice dumplings, five color water balls, one tea wine and one mugwort, each worth [-] renminbi, all of which I, Su Ji, specially purchased from Jiangnan , are all high-quality goods, and there is no place to buy them in Luzhou Prefecture, please order quickly, the ordering time is only half an hour, and you will not wait when it is out of date."
Xiao Sui'er faithfully conveyed the advertising words designed by Su Jin in a very encouraging tone, and the girls in the audience finally couldn't stand it anymore. Now they only need to order, and they may win a lottery. Let's talk about the skirt The design is really exquisite, looking at the girls on the stage, and then looking at their own clothes, the girls almost want to find a crack in the ground and slip through.
"Officer, I want..." Even wearing a cloth dress, the lethality of this sentence is still extremely powerful. The officials have reason to believe that if they refuse at this time, after returning home, this sentence will definitely become: " Officer, get your old lady out of bed..."
"Officer, I want a new dress, at worst I don't buy rouge and gouache for three months, can't I?" This is the empathetic type.
"Go, buy one for my old lady. My old lady will take care of the old and the young for your family all day long. Such a small request is not too much." This is the type of remembering bitterness and thinking sweet.
"Whatever you want, if you buy a slave's house, you can spend the Dragon Boat Festival wearing rags if you don't buy a slave's house. Hey... Who is to say that the slave's life is miserable." This is the play hard to capture type.
Few men can refuse in full view, unless they really have no money and the family can't open the pot, so whether they want to or not, they move.
The few tables lined up under the stage were quickly crowded with men who paid a deposit of [-] yuan. Everyone who ordered clothes received a number plate and a deposit receipt, and then the same number The cards were dropped into a large box covered in red paper.
Several master masters of the garment shop lined up and directed the husbands of each family to measure the size of their daughters-in-law and recorded it in the book; Scratching and scratching under the ground, I am afraid that those men who stood staring at him will go crazy on the spot.
Amidst the hustle and bustle, the [-] preferential quotas were filled up in a short while, and those who did not squeeze in bowed their heads, and their wives pinched their waists with their nails and cursed.
Su Jin looked at the chaos in the audience with a smile, and beckoned Xiao Sui'er to come over, whispered a few words, Xiao Sui'er came to the front of the stage, and said loudly: "Su Ji's young master said that the preferential quota will be relaxed for a quarter of an hour, please hurry up." Order, there will be a lucky draw in a quarter of an hour."
The crowd flocked again, this time they deeply felt the hard-won discount, and kept urging the people in front to hurry up to save time.
The woman in purple stared intently at all this, her eyes were full of surprise, she seemed a little unprepared for such a crazy scene.
"There are so many tricks, and everyone is fooled around. You are a real businessman." The tall maid muttered.
"Shut up!" The woman in purple frowned and stopped, "What do you know? With such materials and workmanship, the usual price of five is already an extremely cheap price, not to mention there is a [-]% discount, which is almost no profit. Every time the Su family orders a set of clothes, they may lose hundreds of dollars."
"Then isn't he crazy? How can there be a business that loses money and spends money for nothing?" the maid muttered.
"I don't know about this, but I think Mr. Su should not be like this, and there must be a way out." The woman in purple thought deeply.
The short maid said suddenly: "Miss, Mr. Su is here."
The woman in purple looked up and saw Su Jin walking over with a smile.
"Su Jin is very polite, thank you for your kindness." Su Jin clasped his fists in disbelief.
The woman in purple hurriedly got up and said, "Where is it, the slave family would like to thank Mr. Su for giving the slave family a place to join in the fun."
Su Jin laughed, and said in a low voice: "Please tell me the name of the boss, the name of the boss is always very awkward."
The tall maidservant said: "Young Master Su is so impolite, there is no one who asks a girl's name in public, really..."
The woman in purple gave her a sidelong glance, interrupted her, turned to Su Jin and smiled apologetically, "My family's surname is Yan, and the small character is Biyun; Xiaoxian'er is rude, sir, don't blame me!"
Su Jin laughed and said, "What's so strange? Miss Xiaoxian'er is a good name, she is demure and dignified, gentle and pleasant, not bad."
Xiao Xian'er puffed her mouth and said with wide eyes: "Is there anyone who curses like you?"
Su Jin and Yan Biyun looked at each other, Su Jin laughed loudly, Yan Biyun covered her small mouth and giggled.
