"Maybe I can even choose you for the final PK. If you win, the princess will choose the remaining one. I've decided to go to the modern world and help our clothing store grow bigger and stronger."
"You mean if I'm chosen by the princess, I can stay in the palace and do clothing alterations?"
"Maybe, but aren't you curious about the modern world at all? Since you have such innovative ideas, you should come with me to a better place to develop."
"I don't know what kind of modern place you're talking about. That's one thing. Secondly, my dream is that one day I can design clothes for the most fashionable concubines. When they wear them, I'm sure I'll have a sense of accomplishment I've never experienced before. I want to experience that feeling."
"Of course. I just think it's a pity. I didn't expect your expectations to be so shallow."
"Superficial? I just said that the concubines have the finest silks, even better than any in my shop. Only the best quality fabrics can create a sense of luxury."
"You're wrong. Clothes are for people to wear. It's not like I haven't seen them dress so formally all day long. Take eating for example, they should put a bellyband in front of each person, worn outside, or a small rag. Don't you think that would be very stylish?"
"I don't think so. Isn't that like a baby? Or a newborn one at that."
"But it's practical. Take why I'm talking to you and trying to recruit you as my assistant. It's because you can wear one piece of clothing in many ways. It's very practical. The key is that it's down-to-earth. If ordinary people bought a piece of clothing, they could change its look every day for 365 days. And if it could be turned inside out and changed into different colors, one side would be suitable for eating without worrying about getting it dirty, and the material would be soft, while the other side would be exquisite and suitable for various banquets."
After Ji Nianqin finished speaking, she tilted her head and looked at the master. Unexpectedly, he blushed and touched his beard.
"Hahaha, you're dressed up as a feather duster, right? How come you're still shedding feathers?"
"Don't say that. It's not true. My hair has been falling out a lot lately, and it's really bothering me. I always accidentally lose my hair while I'm making clothes. Also, my eyesight is getting blurry, and I'm getting older, so I often sew hair onto clothes, and customers think they've been worn by someone else."
"But the clothes you sell are good, but the looks of some of your customers might be a little hard to describe."
At this time, the pancake vendor was still greeting the master.
"Thank you for what you did for me last time. I feel very warm wearing it."
"As long as you like it."
At this moment, Ji Nianqin seemed to suddenly understand that everything was just the pancake vendor promoting the master, and he was not the best tailor on the street, he just liked to do good things.
"When you do it for them, you only charge a small fee for the labor. Do you think your store can continue to operate? It can't even cover the operating expenses. I have two stores in modern times, and I know all too well that rent, staff, utilities, and other expenses are mandatory. There are also some auxiliary costs, such as the three guarantees and the seven-day no-questions-asked return policy. These are all specially designed to take consumers into consideration, so you also need to take these return costs into account. If you don't have some unique talents, you will soon be eliminated."
"I didn't charge the people a penny. Maybe he wanted to make some money from you..."
