Chapter 43: Have you finally thought of a good solution?

 Alice vividly described what she experienced after entering the store.

"As soon as I walked in, I asked the boss, do you provide handmade customization services here? She said yes, but you need to pay a deposit, and you have to provide the drawings yourself. So I showed her the drawings drawn by Metien, and after she read them

She asked me what style of underwear this was, and said that even for the style of underwear, this design was too revealing. I told her that this was not underwear, but a swimsuit. Then, she kicked us out.

He scolded me for being shameless, and said that although his store was in decline, he would never accept such a tasteless and morally corrupt business, and told me to get out quickly..."

When Alice said this, she waved her fist angrily: "What are you doing, so arrogant! I was so angry that I wanted to beat her up, but Saint Xalia stopped me and wouldn't let me do this."<

/p>

Ringer then turned his attention to the green-haired girl aside, who nodded silently, indicating that the situation was what Alice said.

The young man rubbed his eyebrows, with mixed feelings in his heart. Although this matter sounded ridiculous, he surprisingly could understand the boss's mood. After all, if Alice's drawings were made public, he would think they were underwear.

There are definitely more people than people who think they are swimsuits, and they are indeed quite revealing. Perhaps in the era when Alice lived, with the development of science and technology and changes in moral concepts, this level of exposure had been eliminated by the people on earth.

It is commonplace, but in today's era, it may be difficult to gain widespread recognition. Because those who are convinced that they are living in a splendid industrial civilization have already invested their openness and tolerance in steam engines.

The various changes in social order and political systems brought about by these changes have not paid attention to these basic necessities that are closely related to ordinary people.

This era is so subversive that sitting on the locomotive towards the end of the track will never return; this era is so conservative that, like a chaste maiden in a monastery, no external forces can pry into it. Subversion belongs to technology and thought, but conservatism still exists among people.

Even if there are occasional changes in morality, they are probably by-products of the Industrial Revolution and are not worthy of the attention of the big shots in the Senate.

In such a strong contrast, it is not so surprising that Alice's swimsuit design was criticized by the store owner as "shameless" and "morally corrupt".

"In that case," Lin Ge quickly thought of a compromise: "Can't you just tell her that this is a drawing of underwear?"

Although the design is too bold as underwear, it is worn under clothes after all. As we all know, people have always had a relatively tolerant attitude towards things that they cannot see with the naked eye. This is another reason why traditional morality gives them the power to criticize.

This is a requirement: they are not allowed to pry into other people's private lives, whether they are corrupt or depressing. Just like what social ethicist George Dolby said: When the public sphere develops to a certain stage, the private sphere will

Gradually it became inviolable.

"No!" Alice flatly refused.

"Why?"

"Because this is a swimsuit!" Alice said confidently: "It's just a normal design. If I lied, wouldn't it mean that the boss's words were reasonable? Are these swimsuits shameless and morally corrupt? I won't be fooled. Lin

The same goes for you, you have to follow the right path in life and don’t always think about opportunism. Doing so will not be good for your future!"

Are you qualified to say this?

And why do you only have this inexplicable obsession in such a strange place?

This guy’s brain circuit is really hard to understand.

Ringer shook his head and gave up the idea of ​​continuing the discussion with her.

Saint Xalia asked Alice: "In this case, should we continue to search?"

"Of course!" Alice clenched her fists and was not discouraged: "If this store doesn't do my business, it's her own fault. What does it have to do with me? I don't believe that there are so many clothing stores on this street.

Are you going to reject all my orders? Let’s go, let’s keep looking!”

She took the lead and walked towards the sign of the next store. Ringer and Saint Xalia looked at each other behind her. Although they felt that things would not go as smoothly as Alice said, they still wanted to persuade her to give up now.

It was impossible, so I followed silently.

……

An hour and a half later.

Alice sat slumped on a basswood bench on the street, leaning back and tilting her head upward, looking helpless. She didn't even bother to brush away a few yellow sycamore leaves that slowly fell on her hair.

, squeezed out a feeble voice from his throat: "How, is it possible..."

Ringer and Saint Xalia, who were sitting on either side of the bench with Alice in the middle, looked at each other silently like half an hour ago, feeling a little speechless.

In the past hour and a half, the three of them visited a total of twelve clothing stores, but in the end no store took over the business. Some of the stores had the same reason as the previous owner, thinking that such revealing swimwear was too revealing.

It is moral corruption and cannot be put on the stage. These old tailors who pride themselves on their style are naturally unwilling to waste their skills on such vulgar designs that have no shame or artistry at all. There is even an old woman with extremely conservative moral concepts.

After reading the drawings, he chased Alice with a broom for dozens of meters. In the end, he couldn't catch up and still stood there panting and scolding her. Fortunately, the store was in a relatively remote location and there were very few pedestrians passing by.

, so there was no big fuss.

As for other stores, considering that the economy is indeed in a slump and life has to go on, some are willing to take this order, but without exception they all gave harsh conditions: or they said they had never seen this kind of thing before.

This type of design requires careful study of the drawings, so the work may take a long time, and it will take at least a week or two to deliver. However, Ringer and the others cannot stay in this city for too long, so they can only refuse with regret; or else

I felt that these customers looked too young and should be easy to coax, so I directly offered an outrageous price of several hundred pounds, saying that it was reasonable labor costs, material costs, service fees... in short, all kinds of inexplicable prices.

Expenses. Although Linge and the others were considered rich after receiving the friendly sponsorship of a certain Countess, they could not be taken advantage of if they were rich, so Linge pretended to tell them to think about it carefully and then sell those stores later.

Blacklisted, will never be considered.

After struggling for a long time, I still got nothing.

"I just want to make some swimsuits." Alice groaned in pain: "Why is it so difficult?"

It wasn't your own impromptu idea without any prior planning. Lin Ge complained, but didn't say it out loud.

"If that doesn't work, let's go back." Saint Xalia suggested softly: "Don't let everyone on the sky island wait too long, Alice."

The golden-haired maid put a hand on her eyes and said dullly: "What about the swimsuit?"

"You can go on vacation without a swimsuit."

"No!"

She suddenly jumped up: "A seaside vacation like that is incomplete, I will never admit it! Just wait a moment, don't make a decision so quickly, there must be a way, let me think about it, let me think about it..."<

/p>

She was spinning in circles, her irritable footsteps making a crunching sound on the withered leaves on the ground. For her swimsuit holiday, the golden-haired maid was using her brain with all her strength to let her brain work well: raising an army for a thousand days and using it for a while.

, I usually give you a holiday, but now it’s finally your turn to contribute. Hurry up and think of a way to do it!

"Huh?"

The brain did not disappoint Alice's expectations. After a sudden burst of inspiration, Alice's eyes lit up and she finally thought of a perfect solution to the current problem: "I know what to do!"

Ringer was noncommittal and did not believe Alice's words. Whether it was a good idea or not would have to be known until she finished speaking. Before that, don't have unrealistic expectations for this golden-haired maid.

Saint Xalia suddenly had a bad premonition.
