The waiter was about to take Xu Lan downstairs to find the old tailor when he heard a very provocative voice.
"Man, I want all the Yun brocade in Qingyifang. It will be charged to the Wen family's account in Liushu Hutong."
The Wen family from Liushu Hutong is also a well-known wealthy businessman in the area, so the clerk naturally knows about it.
However, it was not his decision to buy them all, so he smiled and said: "Madam, please sit down for a moment, and I will go and ask how much brocade is left in the store."
"No matter how much is left, I want it." The young woman glanced at Xu Lan intentionally or unintentionally, and her meaning was obvious.
Xu Lan felt a little anxious. This was obviously a deliberate attempt to cause trouble for her. However, it was obviously impossible to reason with such an arrogant person, so she said to the waiter: "I'll go downstairs and wait."
The waiter breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile, "Girl, go slow." Then he said to the young woman: "Madam, you bought more. This brocade is precious. I can't make the decision. I'll call our shopkeeper for you."
Come."
He poured a cup of tea diligently and said, "Madam, please take a rest for a while. The little one will be back soon."
The young woman snorted angrily, "It's unlucky that anyone can come here." She picked up the tea cup and smelled it, and said in disgust: "Is this how your Qingyi Shop treats guests with such bad tea?"
The waiter smiled coquettishly and said, "This is the best Bishan Longjing in our shop. If it doesn't suit my wife's taste, I will replace it with a new one for you. Madam, wait a moment."
After saying that, he hurriedly left the inner room, winked to another waiter, and asked him to pay attention to the inner room, and then went downstairs.
When the man came downstairs, the young woman also winked at her two maids. The two maids understood and followed the man downstairs.
Not long after Xu Lan arrived on the first floor, the clerk came downstairs and apologized to Xu Lan: "I often encounter some difficult bosses, so don't worry about it, girl."
Xu Lan shook her head and said it was okay.
The waiter walked to the counter and said to Xu Lan: "Girl, wait a moment, I will go and tell the shopkeeper about the situation above, and I will take you to Master Song immediately."
Xu Lan said hello and watched as the waiter ran to the counter, said a few words to the shopkeeper, and then ran over again.
But as soon as the waiter came over, the young woman's two maids came downstairs, stared at the waiter, and asked: "Where is the brocade that our young lady wants? Is this how your store treats customers? Let us, young lady, wait.
?”
The waiter quickly turned around and smiled, "Girls, wait a moment, I have already told the shopkeeper about this..."
The two maids locked their eyes on Xu Lan, and one of them stepped forward, "The young lady said that she would buy all the Yun brocades. Now take us to see them. We will buy as many as there are in the Qingyi Shop. Every one of them will be bought."
Can not be less."
The man looked at the two of them awkwardly.
The shopkeeper came over at this time and said, "Boy, the shop has regulations. The amount of brocade is small and precious. You can only buy fifteen pieces at a time. If you want it, I will have it wrapped for you and sent to your mansion."
Unexpectedly, the two maids refused to obey and shouted loudly: "What are you doing to break the rules? Our boss has a lot of money. If we buy them all, we are looking down on you. Why don't you sell? Are you open to doing business like this?"
Another person followed suit, "Qing Yi Fang is known as a place where famous nobles come and go, but anyone can enter your store. I think this place should not be called Qing Yi Fang, but a vegetable market instead."
The two people's nonsense attracted many people to watch, and they intensified their behavior. They turned their eyes and pointed at Xu Lan, "This kind of person has poverty written all over her body, and you still let her come in. In your eyes,
Do all the rich gentlemen and ladies present here deserve to be treated as equals with such people?"
Another person said: "If you don't drive this man out today, our young lady will never come to your Qingyi Shop again from now on.
Shopping in the same place as this kind of person is simply an insult to our young lady."
Xu Lan had never been so humiliated since she was born. Her face turned red with shame and anger, and she couldn't help but refuted: "I spent money to buy things openly, I didn't steal or rob, and I didn't ask for charity. Why can't I come in?"
Your feet are so precious, yet they are not inlaid with gold or silver.
Words and deeds begin with upbringing. If you two are so harsh and mean, if I were your boss, I would be so embarrassed that I would hide in a corner. It’s embarrassing."
"Hey, you are a stinky girl from the country, and you still curse. Ladies and gentlemen, look at this. This is Qingyi Fang. People like this can come in. With people like this here, don't you feel that your identity has been eliminated?
"
Xu Lan was so angry that she was jealous. Just when she was about to say more, the shopkeeper stood up with a stern face and said, "Some people, please don't be so shameless. This is Qing Yi Fang, not a place for you to act recklessly."
You want to buy something, that's fine, but if you want to deliberately cause trouble, then you can't blame Qingyi Shop for kicking you out. Someone, throw these two scoundrels out."
As soon as he finished speaking, four strong men ran out from the inner hall, grabbed a maid in pairs, and carried her out without saying a word.
Xu Lan was stunned for a moment, but the next moment her eyes filled with gratitude. She was deeply moved by the store's maintenance.
The shopkeeper first apologized and then said to everyone onlookers: "Everyone, there have been frequent troublemakers in Qingyi Shop recently. This is just a dirty trick used by some peers to compete. I hope you don't mind.
In the future, the store will control it more strictly to prevent troublemakers from disturbing everyone's interest. In addition, today, all items in the store will be reduced by 10%."
The crowd of onlookers, who were still a little displeased, were immediately appeased. Others who were watching the excitement felt that they had made a profit. They originally only wanted to buy one horse, but they simply turned around and took two more.
The waiter said to Xu Lan again: "Girl, Master Song is in the back hall, please come with the younger one."
It turned out that it was not directed at herself, and Xu Lan felt much better. She turned around and followed the waiter into the back hall.
Master Song looks to be in his fifties, but he is very energetic.
Xu Lan took out the drawing and handed it to Master Song, "Master, can you cut this dress?"
Master Song stared at the drawings for a moment, unable to conceal his surprise, "The style of this dress is quite peculiar. I have never cut such a dress before."
Xu Lan's heart tightened, "Can't it be cut?"
Master Song shook his head with a smile, "I can cut it, but I've never seen this kind of clothes before. It looks pretty good in this style."
Xu Lan breathed a sigh of relief and said again: "Master, can you come with me now? We need clothes urgently. Prince Guan will use them. The wages are easy to talk about, as long as we can make the clothes quickly."
Master Song made some calculations and said, "Prince Guan's meeting is still half a month away, so there is still time."
Xu Lan smiled awkwardly, "We will make twenty sets."
"Twenty sets?" Master Song was surprised, but after thinking about it again, he said, "That's too late." He still has apprentices.
Xu Lan secretly thought that was great and led Master Song and his apprentices to the mountain pavilion.
The disciples of Shange were practicing their swordsmanship. When they saw Xu Lan leading an old man in, they all looked over curiously. When Si Wenzhi looked at the master, he was a little surprised and said, "Master Song, why are you here?"
Master Song was surprised when he saw it, "Third Young Master?!" He cut the Si family's clothes himself, so he naturally knew the Third Young Master.
Wen Ya only stood up at this time and said to the disciples: "Master has customized a set of pavilion clothes for you. Not only for the Guan Wanghui, you will have to wear them whenever you go out. But the money for these clothes is not included. You have to pay for the repair yourself. How much money?" asked Xiang Xu Lan.
Xu Landao: "There are seventy-two taels of Yun brocade and twelve taels of tailoring. The average person has four taels of money."
Wen Ya said to everyone again: "You all heard it, go back and hand the money into your senior brother's hands."
Some people were curious about cutting clothes, and some were unhappy when they heard that they would have to wear them when going out, but they did not dare to show it on their faces. So everyone stood silently in two lines. Master Song and his apprentice took the soft ruler and began to cut clothes. All measurements.
