Jiujiu was quite lucky. After searching for a while, she found a suitable shop in the east of the city.
This shop could be set up in front of the shop and people could live in the back. It was very convenient.
If it wasn't for the fact that the owner was suffering from an emergency and needed money urgently, he wouldn't have been willing to give up his shop.
Jiujiu only spent 150 taels of silver to get this shop.
Coincidentally, this clothing shop used to be a ready-made clothing business. There was no need to change the decorations. As long as Jiujiu made a few signature clothes, they could open for business.
Although it was fine to stay in a hotel, it was not their own home that was uncomfortable.
Jiujiu, Xiang Bei, and Bai Ze spent three days tidying up the backyard and settled down here.
The autumn examination was about to begin. Jiujiu did not let Xiang Bei teach the two children and asked him to focus on his studies.
Jiujiu, on the other hand, focused on her ready-made clothing business.
When doing business, one had to find their own position.
Jiujiu's shop was located in the east of the city. There was still some distance between the west of the city and the east of the city where the rich lived. Therefore, Jiujiu focused on the ordinary families first.
Ordinary families would buy clothes, but they felt that most of them were the type who would only sell their goods after comparing the goods with other shops. Therefore, the quality and design of the clothes had to be better than other shops to retain customers.
Jiujiu had learned how to design, so she applied it directly. Soon, she designed a few sets of her main clothing. She made a few different sizes for each design and hung them in the shop to wait for customers to come.
After designing the popular designs, Jiujiu began to design a few more exquisite designs. She was prepared to find an opportunity to expand her business into the circle of the rich in the west of the city.
When she really entered the circle of the rich, she would focus on the custom-made route.
One custom-made piece of clothing would definitely make more money than ten ordinary clothes.
Because this ready-made clothing shop was popular before, customers came in very quickly.
After shopping around, he placed an order at Jiujiu's shop.
Jiujiu was different from other ready-made clothing stores in that they didn't use designs. Instead, they made recommendations based on the customer's body shape, skin color, face shape, and other conditions. They tried their best to make their clothes more beautiful.
Those who were able to place orders at Jiujiu's shop were customers who had already approved of Jiujiu's designs. Now that they heard Jiujiu's recommendation based on her personal characteristics, there was no reason for them to disagree.
And the clothes that were designed according to Jiujiu's recommendations were definitely the most suitable for her.
The most suitable one could make a person appear very beautiful.
Becoming extraordinarily beautiful because of a piece of clothing was definitely a free advertisement.
Soon, Jiujiu's shop received more and more orders. There were even some wealthy people from the western part of the city who came to Jiujiu to customize clothes.
The first person that Jiujiu received in the west of the city was the daughter of the Grand Scribe, Gu Pianpian.
Gu Pianpian's previous clothes were all custom-made by the Hongzhuang Pavilion in the west of the city.
However, a few days ago, the set of clothes that she ordered was snatched by Qiongyao, the daughter of the Grand Scribe, Lord Wang.
However, in five days, she would meet Lord He, the son of the Grand Scribe, for the first time. It would be bad if she left a bad impression on him because of a mistake in the clothes.
It was difficult to order clothes from the Hongzhuang Pavilion. She had ordered this set of clothes more than a month in advance. If she wanted to order again, she would have to wait for another month.
However, she would meet Lord He in five days.
She accidentally saw a woman on the street with a very novel style of clothes, so she asked someone to find out which shop it was made in.
She knew that it was made in Jiujiu's shop. Jiujiu's clothes not only had a good style, but also could be adjusted according to each person's characteristics. Therefore, even if it was a style and a color, it would be different on each person.
Gu Pianpian had been discouraged. When she saw that the woman's clothes were really beautiful and she really wanted to marry Lord He, she came to Jiujiu's shop as a last resort, hoping that Jiujiu could help her design a suitable set of clothes for her.
After hearing Gu Pianpian's words, Jiujiu looked Gu Pianpian up and down carefully.
Gu Pianpian had an oval face with double eyelids. The only flaw was that her nose was a little collapsed. Fortunately, the shape of her mouth was very beautiful.
Because Gu Pianpian's skin was a little yellowish, the color of the clothes couldn't be too eye-catching. Otherwise, it would make her already yellowish skin look even more yellowish.
Jiujiu thought for a while and decided on the color of the clothes as pea green.
Pea green was definitely the whitest color, there was no other.
After deciding on the color of the clothes, the next step was the style.
Gu Pianpian put on the clothes for the blind date. Naturally, she couldn't embroider them casually like ordinary clothes.
Jiujiu thought for a while and prepared to embroider some small white flowers on the hemline of the clothes.
Clothes in summer were light and thin. Pea green was a refreshing color with light flowers embroidered on it. As Gu Pianpian walked, the hemline of the clothes fluttered, making people feel that flowers were blooming with every step.
Of course, since the clothes were designed, the hairstyle and accessories had to be done as well.
Jiujiu picked up the abacus and counted. She looked at Gu Pianpian and said, "Miss, the clothes are a little rushed. In order to make the best use of the clothes, I will also match your hairstyle and accessories. This set is 25 taels of silver. If you are willing, you can give me a deposit of 10 taels of silver. If you are satisfied with the clothes and accessories, you can give me the remaining 15 taels of silver. What do you think?"
Gu Pianpian had to pay 25 taels of silver for the clothes she ordered in Hongzhuang Pavilion. At this moment, Jiujiu only needed 15 taels of silver with the accessories. It couldn't be cheaper.
Gu Pianpian directly threw down 25 taels of silver. "If you are satisfied, I have other rewards."
Jiujiu said that she was satisfied with Gu Pianpian's wealth and began to design for Gu Pianpian.
Jiujiu naturally put in a lot of effort because this was the first dress she would make to enter the circle of the rich in the west of the city.
Not only did she use the best material, but she also embroidered the embroidery very carefully.
Four days later, Gu Pianpian came to pick up the clothes in person.
Jiujiu directly took out the clothes she had made and took Gu Pianpian to her room to change. She also changed Gu Pianpian's hairstyle.
She put on the jewelry she had made for the clothes on Gu Pianpian and put on light makeup for her.
Looking at herself in the mirror, Gu Pianpian was stunned.
Gu Pianpian raised her hand to touch her cheek. She looked at Jiujiu in disbelief and asked, "This is me?"
Jiujiu nodded. "Miss, are you satisfied?"
Gu Pianpian stared at herself in the mirror in a daze.
If she was only average before she came, she was devastatingly beautiful in the mirror.
Her eyes were still the same, but she gave people the feeling that she was the Lord of Guanghan Palace, cold and otherworldly.
Gu Pianpian stared at herself in a daze for a long time before she stood up and walked out of the room.
