Wang Peifang was shocked. Why did Chu Qingzhi enter the shop opposite? What was the relationship between her and the daughter of the richest man in the county?

Xu Wanrong often attended all kinds of gatherings in the county. All the rich people in the county knew her. Many people wanted to get close to the richest family, the Xu family, through marriage.

Chu Qingzhi stood at the entrance of the shop and looked around.

The shop was about 70 to 80 square meters. There was a counter at the entrance, and there were clothes racks inside.

Chu Qingzhi asked Sang Wanlu to renovate the shop into a modern style.

Sang Wanlu was also a business-minded girl. She had renovated the shop well, which was in line with Chu Qingzhi’s thoughts.

Chu Qingzhi brought the bag over. “Second Sister, let’s hang some clothes on the rack and put them outside.”

Chu Qingyue hurriedly replied, “Okay.”

Xu Wanrong and Sang Wanlu also came over to help hang up the clothes.

Xu Wanrong held a sky-blue dress in her hand and couldn’t bear to part with it. “I want this dress.”

This dress had a doll collar and a lotus leaf-shaped pattern. The dress was tucked at the waist, and there was a dark blue ribbon around it. There was a bow, making it look especially cute. The hem of the dress was like a princess dress, and there was also a dark blue ribbon embedded at the edge of the dress.

This dress looked beautiful and refreshing.historical

Sang Wanlu took the dress and looked at it. “Wanrong, I like this dress too.”

Xu Wanrong snatched the dress back. “No, 1 took a fancy to it first.”

Seeing that Xu Wanrong really liked it, Sang Wanlu did not snatch it anymore. “Forget it. As your sister, I’ll let you have it. I’ll choose another one.”

Chu Qingyue smiled faintly. The fact that people wanted the clothes she made made her happy and gave her a sense of accomplishment. The seed of confidence slowly grew up inside her.

The more Xu Wanrong looked at the dress, the more she liked it. “Qingzhi, how much do you plan to sell this dress for?”

The cost of fabric for the dress was a hundred copper coins, and the labor cost was also a hundred copper coins. There was also the rent of the shop, the salary of the workers, and the time cost. This dress had to be sold for at least three hundred copper coins in order to make the shop profitable. “This dress can’t be less than three hundred copper coins. What do you think is the appropriate price?”

She did not know much about the ancient market. She had to listen to their opinions.

Sang Wanlu glanced at Chu Qingzhi. “Six hundred copper coins.”

Chu Qingzhi nodded in agreement. “This dress style can also be made of better fabric. It will be more beautiful and textured. Of course, the price will also be higher.”

Sang Wanlu understood what Chu Qingzhi meant. “Qingzhi, don’t worry. I understand.”

It’s good to work with smart people.. Chu Qingzhi said, “By the way, Wanlu, do you have any gatherings? When you attend a gathering, remember to dress our clothes to display it and increase its popularity.”

“Especially Wanrong. You’re the daughter of the richest man in this county. You naturally have the influence to direct the trend.”

Xu Wanrong said excitedly, “It just so happens that I’m going to attend my grandmother’s birthday tomorrow. I’ll wear this new dress.”

Chu Qingzhi smiled and said, “Ok.”

Sang Wanlu said, “Qingzhi, give the shop a name. I’ll get someone to order a plaque. Once the plaque is hung, we can officially open for business.”

“As for the name..” Chu Qingzhi thought for a moment. “How about Pure and Gentle Women’s Clothing Shop?”

Xu Wanrong smiled and said, “This name sounds good.”

Chu Qingzhi asked Chu Qingyue, “Second Sister, do you like this name?”

Chu Qingyue nodded gently. “Yes.”

Sang Wanlu smiled and said, “I like this name too. Let’s settle on this name.”

Opposite the shop, Wang Peifang had been staring at them. She looked at Chu Qingyue talcing out clothes and revealed a puzzled expression. What were they doing?

Then, she turned her attention to the dresses. These dresses were refreshing and girlish. Even she couldn’t help but like them.

At this point, she realized that they wanted to open a clothing shop. Chu Qingzhi was also involved in this.

She thought to herself that Chu Qingzhi was really ungrateful. Not only did she not give her any ice cream bars, but she also did not give these beautiful dresses to her. If she had known earlier that Chu Qingzhi was such an ingrate, she would not have adopted her back then.

Two 15 or 16-year-old girls walked over from the side of the street. The two of them immediately took a fancy to the dress being displayed outside the shop.

“That dress is so beautiful.”

“Yes, yes, yes. Not only is it beautiful, but the fabric is also not thick. It should be very cool to wear.”

“Will such a beautiful dress be especially expensive?”

“Let’s go and ask. If it’s too expensive, we won’t buy it.”

“Alright, let’s go.”

Hence, the four girls who were discussing the opening of the shop heard a voice asking about the price. “Are you selling these dresses? How much are you selling them for?”

Sang Wanlu walked out and sized up the two girls. They looked like people who could afford the dresses. “The price of these five dresses is five hundred copper coins apiece. There are dresses with better fabrics inside. You can come in and choose.”

Five hundred copper coins was not particularly expensive. They could afford it. “Alright, let’s take a look.”

The two girls walked into the shop. There were still fifteen dresses left, but they were enough to dazzle them. “These dresses are so beautiful.”

Sang Wanlu pointed at the five dresses in the first row. “These dresses cost six hundred copper coins each.”

Chu Qingzhi walked over. “If you don’t like these styles, you can customize a style to your preference. There are a hundred styles to choose from. You can also choose fabrics and colors, but customizing a dress will be more expensive.”

Sang Wanlu raised her eyebrows. Qingzhi was so smart.

A young girl was choosing from the ready-made dresses while the other young girl asked, “Can you show me the styles?”

Sang Wanlu smiled and said, “Sure, follow me to the counter..”
