Cosma Empire

Before the pretty young lady could tremble and tighten her legs to lean against the counter to enjoy the sage time, a hand pinched her face and pushed her back forcefully. While struggling in panic and trying to hold on to something under the effect of losing her balance, she saw through her fingers that the good-looking young man in white clothes and another guy who was obviously timid walked towards the last partition.

By God, that's M. Dumas' workshop!

Duma omits some meaningless rhetoric and adds the surname Paul. He is currently the main tailor and the person in charge of Paul's clothing store in Tenel City. The success of Paul's clothing store has made this small clothing store already in the empire. Almost all major cities in the southeast have such "Paul ready-to-wear". After the success of the new party usurping the throne, capital power finally ushered in a big explosion. In order to continuously expand the territory and cope with the limited family population during the expansion process, the patriarch of the Paul family formulated a plan for his two sons and two daughters. Require.

That is the "Apprentice Incorporation Plan". The old patriarch believes that if there are suitable and talented apprentices, they can be incorporated into the family in the form of in-laws and become their own people, and then continue to expand the influence and territory of Paul Tailor for the family. This plan has to be said to be a very wise plan. The tailors trained apprentices, but if there were no restrictions, the apprentices would leave here after their studies, and then find a store elsewhere to start their first business in their lives.

It is also the so-called "shameless first time" in the hands of handicraft practitioners in these years.

Why didn't Durin become an apprentice in any handicraft shop? Because he has not yet reached the standard of "preaching", to put it simply, when the inheritor selects an apprentice, he actually selects an heir, or even his own descendant, so each apprentice is carefully selected, There are strict controls. Few apprentices are willing to accept the "exploitation" and "oppression" of the inheritors after learning the craft. They are willing to give up these things they already have and start again. At least everything they do at that time is for themselves, not for others. who.

The girl is such a lucky one. Mr. Duma's eldest son is 16 years old, two years younger than the girl. He thinks it is worth investing in a well-behaved girl who can take care of his son for a lifetime . More importantly, after the two get married, as long as she has the skills and ability to stand up a shop independently, then she will be able to ensure that his eldest son will have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of his life. It is really a good investment, isn't it?

Of course, Dulin is completely unaware of all this. He just wants to find the best tailor in this ready-to-wear shop to make clothes for himself, for Mason, for Dover, for Ellis, and for that idiot Graff. Two decent suits. As for the others? That's not something he should think about.

Mr. Duma is thirty-seven years old this year. He is slightly thin, his skin is very dry, there are some shallow wrinkles, his hair is very fluffy, and he seems to be regularly maintained. He wears a pair of glasses and is lying on a rocking chair with his eyes closed. rest. It wasn't until he walked into this partition that Du Lin realized that the bright light source from the outside was not omnidirectional. In fact, half of it was covered by the lampshade, which ensured that most of the partition was awakened by the soft light, while the other half kept shining on a translucent screen.

He knocked on the table very politely, and the sound of the knock woke Mr. Dumas from his resting state immediately. He sat up suddenly, and the gold-rimmed glasses slipped from the bridge of his nose due to his violent movements. There is a metal chain on both sides of the glasses, otherwise it will definitely fall to pieces. Standing up, he put on his glasses and bowed with an apologetic smile on his face, "I'm sorry, I've been working this morning and I'm a little tired. I'm so sorry. All orders today are 10% off."

The moment he lowered his head, his face changed,

Adjusted back again. That damned girl, didn't she know to come over and remind him in advance? It is really a very bad thing to be rude in front of distinguished guests! Deduct her wages!

Du Lin was very satisfied with this "old gentleman"'s attitude towards work. He pointed to himself first, and then to Mason, "Hello, we need two formal suits for the dinner party, and hope to make them as soon as possible. If you can If you want to speed up, then you'd better speed up."

Mr. Duma dutifully picked up a notebook on the table, he was taken aback for a moment, and then quickly laughed and said: "I'm so impolite, look, I haven't asked you and this gentleman's name until now...", After Du Lin told him, he wrote down Du Lin's name and his request in the notebook, and then let Du Lin stand under the particularly bright lamp, and started the work of measuring the body.

While gesturing with his hands, he asked various questions. The whole process lasted about ten minutes. His question was just finished. Afterwards, he quickly cut out a formal suit with some scraps of paper, fixed it with needles and threads, and placed it in front of Du Lin.

"Look, Mr. Dooling, this is the formal style I designed for you. I adopted the simple style that has become popular in the south and central this spring, and removed the dark edge structure of the front collar edge that was favored by many gentlemen before." , looks more majestic. At the same time, I slightly adjusted the width of the sword collar to reflect the vigor that you should have at this age. With the purple sash around the pocket mouth, it has more youthful vigor and at the same time will not look too Too frivolous, with a touch of nobility and dignity..."

Du Lin raised his hand at this time, and Duma immediately closed his mouth, bent slightly and smiled, showing a listening expression, "I don't like purple." Yes, Du Lin doesn't like purple, because purple makes him Thinking of that sissy De Lier, that guy was so sissy in purple that people couldn't look directly at him.

Duma immediately showed an expression of enlightenment, and he nodded vigorously, "If you don't like purple, are you satisfied with the color dark brown?"

After about 20 minutes, Du Lin was sweating on his forehead before he finished his final narration. This made Du Lin sigh. Fortunately, this shop did not accept him as an apprentice at the beginning. He really might not be capable. Got this!

Next came Mason. After nearly 40 minutes, the two paper "samples" were completely finalized. Mr. Duma calculated the price and reported the price to Du Lin, "Mr. Du Lin, four suits plus For the jewelry rental agreement provided by the Imperial Jewelry Store, you need to pay a total of 3,700 yuan. Because of my impoliteness and the mistakes of the staff, you have some misunderstandings and possible dissatisfaction. I am the master, and you only need to pay 3,000 yuan Three hundred yuan will do."

"Here I need to remind you that the rental fee of the accessories of the Imperial Jewelry is not included in the calculation. You need to go to any Imperial Jewelry with an agreement to pay the rental fee to complete all the accessories and have someone wear them for you. Do you have any other questions?"

Du Lin glanced at Mr. Duma and laughed, "You are a smart person. I like smart people. Now I want to apply for five more membership cards. Is it possible?"

Duma acted as if he didn't know anything, and said, "Of course, it's an honor for the Paul family to have you come to our store. You don't need any fees. I will give you five membership cards immediately without any deadline." , the whole country!"
