Chapter 36 The suddenly popular tailor shop

Catherine is the first serious customer of the shop, so of course Wang Xu must receive her well. Of course, it doesn't mean that the previous customers are not serious, but that the previous customers are here to be polite, only Catherine is here to shop.

Wang Xu chose two sets of evening dresses for Catherine and told her what kind of shoes and jewelry should be matched with them. By the way, there was still a shortage of jewelry here. Wang Xu quickly made a note that he would need to buy some decorative jewelry when he had time later.

This kind of thing is the cheapest, but it can still be sold very expensively. Good business cannot be lost.

Although Catherine was still young, she seemed to have a lot of experience in this area. She quickly selected a purple silk one-piece dress. After putting it on, she looked around in front of the mirror. The more she looked at it, the more satisfied she became.

When asked about the price, it was 6,000, which was 4,800 after discount. Catherine began to calculate the price in US dollars. After calculating for a long time but to no avail, Tang Yun helped her figure it out, which was 600 US dollars.

Catherine felt it was a good deal and kept saying that things from China were really cheap, which made Wang Xu feel frustrated that the price was set too low.

Tang Yunbang took Catherine into the backyard, measured the size, and then went to the back to adjust the clothes. This is the most important service of the designer brand. In addition to the limited quantity, all the clothes can be adjusted according to your body shape.

Now Tang Yun has basically mastered it. Wang Xu has guided her many times. Every time she makes clothes for Wang Fei, Tang Yun will be called over to make adjustments.

But Wang Xu was on hand to guide him. After all, it was his first order, so there was no harm in being cautious.

The long skirt was quickly adjusted, and the well-fitted clothes were already close to the body. Tang Yun accompanied Catherine into the fitting room. The fitting room here was very large, and two people would not feel cramped standing there.

After being adjusted, the long skirt fits smoothly against the skin, so smooth that wrinkles are almost invisible.

This greatly satisfied Catherine. Customized clothing of this level might not even be available in Ugly Country even if you add a zero, and of course the brands would be different.

Pay the money, fold it, bag it, and the business is done.

There is no branded paper bag business that is common in later generations. Printing is very expensive and requires at least several thousand to print. Wang Xu can only make his own.

Wang Xu made the paper bag himself with kraft paper, and the handles were white shoelaces he bought.

In the center of each paper bag, there is a LOGO drawn directly by Wang Xu with paint. The process is very simple, but the finished product is very effective.

The process of pasting paper bags is not complicated, it just requires carefulness. After practicing it several times, Tang Yun can now paste it decently.

Even the LOGO has to be painted by Wang Xu, but Wang Xu has already made a set of wooden molds, and he can just put them on and paint them later.

The first business was completed so quietly that Zhou Tao next to her was a little stunned. The discounted price of this skirt was still equivalent to her year's salary. This little guy is not simple.

With this business, Tang Yun is not so panicked. At least this month's operating costs have been paid out. However, Wang Xu felt that this business was just a coincidence.

Moreover, it is difficult for foreigners to build a reputation when buying, and it does not help the business much. After all, she bought it and left, and there are no repeat customers even if she has a reputation.

Zhou Tao didn't stay long. The things here were beyond what she, a little policeman, could expect.

Wang Xu gave Zhou Tao a hand-painted silk scarf as a gift for bringing guests. I didn't give a direct kickback, that would look too mean. A small policeman is also a public servant, isn't he?

Hand-painted silk scarves are a very special printing and dyeing method that requires very high skills. In the short term, he can only do it himself, so there is no need to sell it. Since it's not for sale, there's no price tag, so giving it away doesn't mean it's true, which is good.

There were only a few guests in the whole afternoon, but it was Wang Xu who greeted him. After two rounds of polite remarks, he looked at the eye-catching price and left full of complaints.

That's what Wang Xu means. Everyone says it's expensive, and if you keep talking about it, it will become a legend, and then people who don't believe in evil will come to see it, and the reputation will spread.

This idea is actually the same as the small courtyard that housed homeless artists at that time.

At that time, there were rumors everywhere that there was a Buddha here who didn't have much money but liked to pretend to be wealthy.

Later, after going back and forth, I discovered that this brother really liked people in the art circle and was just helping out. From then on, his reputation grew.

Nowadays, even some art circles in other places have spread the heroic reputation of Dong Si Wang Er.

Weird talk is also a reputation. In these days, everything is lacking except idle people. If the things you sell here are more expensive than foreign products, then it will be anecdotal, and then it will spread.

Do you think Chaoyang people will just report it? Spreading news is their specialty. If what you do is strange enough, then within a month, everyone in the entire Imperial Capital will know about it.

Facts have proved that Wang Xu is really unreliable in doing business, and his judgment was wrong again.

On the afternoon of the second day of opening, Wang Fei's pager suddenly kept ringing. After checking, Tang Yun called from the shop and asked Wang Xu to go there as soon as possible. She was too busy and someone wanted to customize it, so he had to be present.

Wang Xu quickly called and found out the cause and effect of the matter.

Yesterday's Catherine was actually the daughter of the president of a chamber of commerce in Chou Country, and the reception she was going to attend yesterday was not some low-end game, but a business dinner hosted by the Chou Country's embassy.

In the 1990s, many U.S.-based companies had actually entered China, but most of them were silent. Neither the media nor magazines made any noise. The essence of making a fortune in silence was lost.

However, when invited by the embassy, ​​these businessmen, large and small, were naturally happy to go. On the one hand, making good friends with the embassy is a very important act in itself. On the other hand, expanding your contacts in China is also a good opportunity.

Therefore, yesterday's business dinner ended up gathering hundreds of business people and their families, which was very grand.

Catherine has received praise from many ladies for her beautiful figure and her purple one-shoulder evening dress with oriental beauty.

After learning that it was actually a local Chinese designer brand, and that all evening dresses were individually designed products of no more than ten pieces, beauty-loving women immediately inquired about the address of this unique designer brand.

It is impossible to put a logo on an evening dress. Designer brands usually show their signature in an inconspicuous place.

But Wang Xu felt that the embroidered signature would cause a small piece of fabric to wrinkle, so he didn't even put the signature.

The same goes for the brown paper bag, which has nothing but the LOGO. Catherine, who was taken there by the driver all the way, is even more confused as to where the store is.

A group of ladies who were even more curious decided to ask the embassy for help. Their small shopping desire accidentally escalated into a diplomatic incident.

In the end, it was the counselor's wife who specifically called the diplomatic department to ask for the contact information of the Chinese policeman who was Catherine's tour guide yesterday.

When the staff of the diplomatic department finally found Zhou Tao and explained the purpose of their visit, Zhou Tao was completely confused. She thought she had caused big trouble by taking Catherine out yesterday.

After a lot of negotiation, a lot of arguing, and a lot of effort. Only then did everyone finally figure out what happened. It turned out that a few aunts wanted to buy something but couldn't find the store.

The staff of the diplomatic department were relieved, the people in the city bureau were dumbfounded, and Zhou Tao felt like she had narrowly escaped death.

However, everyone was happy with the end result. The ladies finally obtained Wang Chao's specific address, and Zhou Tao received praise from the leader.

This is so weird. After struggling to get through the embassy and alerting the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Municipal Bureau, I just found a police officer in the archives room to inquire about the business address of a self-employed business owner.

As a strange story, this incident once again slowly penetrated the streets of the imperial capital.
