Chapter 174: 174 Another Big Order
Chapter 174 Chapter 174 Another big order
"This little bastard, does he really not know, or is he pretending to be crazy?" The Meng family ordered Wan Yan to do something, and the two families knew it well.
But Meng Wenyan acted as if he really didn't know whether he should come to see a doctor or come to see a doctor. With a harmless smile, he was approachable, gentle and polite. It really made people wonder what was going on with him.
Yuzhi heard the words and took a look outside, only to see lush evergreen trees.
"Whether he really doesn't know or pretends not to know, this person has deep thoughts, and we can't get too involved with him."
Wang Xinfeng nodded again and again: "That's the reason. The Meng family is really evil. No matter how many people with bad intentions come out, there is not a single good bamboo shoot."
Yu Zhi laughed, who knows.
In the afternoon, Mr. Sang came back from his stroll with Mr. Mo, and brought back a 40-50-year-old **** in military uniform.
"This is a comrade from the Mo family's cub base, the head of the art troupe. If I have something to ask for my grandson's wife, I will bring it back."
The head of the art troupe?
Yuzhi raised his eyebrows: "Hello, head, please sit down."
Xiao Cui smiled and said, "You're welcome, Comrade Yu. My surname is Xiao. If you don't mind, you can call me Aunt Xiao. This time, Mr. Tosang introduced me. I need Comrade Yu's help."
Yuzhi changed her name in a good manner: "Aunt Xiao doesn't need to be strangers, just call me Yuzhi. If you have something to say, just say it. If you can do it, I will definitely not refuse."
Xiao Cui smiled and said yes: "That's right. During the celebration in October, our art troupe will hold a performance. I heard Mr. Mo say by chance that you can make custom clothes here, so I came to ask if I could make a batch for you." Costumes."
"It's true that we have been looking outside for a long time, but there is no suitable one. Everyone has already determined the repertoire for the performance. If we can't find suitable clothes, we have to change the repertoire."
"It's a little troublesome to change the track, and it's easy to affect the mood and effect, so I came here to ask if you can help me. We have a clear distinction between public and private, so just tell me how much it should be, and I'll apply later."
Costumes, this is another big order.
Besides, in October, the wedding with Yun Ran collided.
If the number is not particularly large, it is not impossible to do it.
Yuzhi asked: "What is the specific quantity? Is it one type of clothing, or multiple styles?"
Xiao Cui said: "There are two shows, one with 15 people and the other with 12 people, a total of 27 sets. Here, I brought their sizes to try to fit them as best as possible. This cultural performance is very important. Want to be perfect.”
Yuzhi nodded, took the size and looked at it.
The girls in the art troupe are all well-proportioned, and they can be made according to one size fits all.
A total of 27 sets, not too complicated requirements, can be produced in a hurry.
Yuzhi asked again: "What is the style of the show? Aunt Xiao, can you describe to me the style of costumes in your mind, or what you need to highlight, and what special requirements do you have?"
Xiao Cui hurriedly said: "Yes, for a program, I want to express heroines, with a more ancient style, similar to Hua Mulan, who fights on the battlefield with gold and iron horses, and women do not give up to men."
"The costume needs to be similar to ancient armor, but it has to be suitable for stage performances, combining rigidity and softness. In terms of color, I don't have an ideal one. I have to ask you to help me think about it."
"The other one is a dance song with a bright and cheerful rhythm. It tells about the beauty of youth, the enthusiasm of young people, and the new hope of vitality. I hope the color is bright and vibrant."
"Yuzhi, do you think this can be done?"
After listening to it, Yuzhi thought for a while, then came up with a general idea, nodded and said: "If you can do it, you can do it. However, I want to take a look at the specific forms of these two programs. Is it convenient for you to watch?"
Xiao Cui clapped her hands and was overjoyed: "As long as you can do it, it's convenient. I will arrange it when you have time to watch it."
Yuzhi said: "Then tomorrow morning, shall we go to the base?"
"Yes, yes, I will send a car to pick you up tomorrow."
"No, I'll send it over tomorrow. I know where the Mo family's son is." Mr. Sang said.
Xiao Cui nodded in agreement, and after making an appointment, Xiao Cui happily left.
Wang Xinfeng was a little worried: "Zhizhi, can we do this? What if your body can't handle it?"
Yun Ran’s wedding dress couldn’t be stepped on with a sewing machine, mainly because the yarn was too fine and had to be sewn by hand.
Unfortunately, Wang Xinfeng's hands are too thick, and the silk will hang when he molds, so he can only sew with elm branches one by one.
For the first time, Wang Xinfeng thought about maintenance, but it was too late to make the wedding dress, so Yuzhi could only be responsible for the whole process.
Now that she is taking so many orders, she is afraid that Yuzhi will be too busy and her body will be exhausted.
Yuzhi thinks it’s okay, the wedding dress can be completed in a month at most, and there are still more than three months until October, which is quite enough time.
"No problem, the costumes will definitely not use too fine fabrics, then mom can help me step on the sewing machine, I will just draw pictures, and I won't get tired."
Wang Xinfeng felt at ease when he said that: "That's okay, I will do all the work for Mom, and Mom has plenty of strength."
Yuzhi thought, the old lady has to make clothes, cook and take care of the house, so she definitely can't do it, so she has to hire an aunt.
There is a grandfather at home, which is enough to invite an aunt.
During dinner, Yuzhi discussed this matter with everyone.
Except for Wang Xinfeng who is concerned about money, everyone else agrees. The only requirement is that the cooking should be delicious.
All right, let Sang Dazhuang do the job of finding someone.
In the evening, I also asked Papa Sang if their base art troupe needed help in customizing performance costumes.
Papa Sang said that there is no cultural troupe in their base.
That's fine.
The next day, after breakfast, Mr. Sang took Yuzhi Wang Xinfeng to Mo's base.
The car was allocated to the old man from above, and there was a driver who was a little soldier.
The car is parked in a special place, and the old man needs to use the car, just let him know.
The Mo family's base and the Sang family's base, one south and one north, like two patron saints, one left and one right, are located on the outskirts of the imperial capital.
Yuzhi and the others went there, it took more than two hours to drive, and they arrived after nine o'clock.
Xiao Cui waited at the door early and welcomed them in.
Everyone didn't delay, and went directly to the dance hall where the art troupe usually rehearses.
Yesterday, Xiao Cui arranged for someone to prepare for it.
Everyone was quite excited when they heard that someone would design costumes for them.
Arrived at the dance hall, after a brief exchange of greetings, let everyone do it briefly.
The program has not been officially rehearsed, only simple repertoire, and the general movements that the choreographer wants.
But these are enough for Yuzhi.
The two programs ended in just over ten minutes.
Yuzhi didn’t leave either, and took out a pen and paper to start painting.
The battle armor is made of bright gold with black textures.
The bright golden color has a strong visual impact, coupled with the sonorous and powerful performance, the momentum of the golden and iron horse is easy to interpret.
The light yellow and emerald green used in dance music are also combined with the one-second cross-dressing design that was popular many years later.
After half an hour of quick sketching, two sets of costumes were formed.
Yuzhi handed it to Xiao Cui: "Aunt Xiao, take a look, if something is wrong, I can correct it for you on the spot."
Xiao Cui was pleasantly surprised, and the girl from the art troupe next to her also stretched her neck to watch.
Can't help exclaiming: "It's so beautiful."
Xiao Cui is also very satisfied: "Yes, yes, it is the one I want, your brain is good, no problem, just do it like this, thanks for your hard work."
Yuzhi responded with a smile: "It's good that Aunt Xiao is satisfied. After I go back, I will refine the drawings again. After two days, someone will send the final drawings and agreement. The agreement includes our respective rights and responsibilities. and quotes."
"At that time, Aunt Xiao thinks there is no problem, so I will trouble you to sign it. If there is any problem, we will discuss and change it."
"Okay, okay, no problem, thank you for making a trip."
"It's not hard. If Aunt Xiao has nothing to do, we will go back first. If you need anything, you can call home or ask someone to bring a message."
Xiao Cui responded one by one, and said: "Don't be in a hurry, I'll invite you to the cafeteria to eat. The food in our cafeteria is good. It's rare to come here. You should try it. You have done me a big favor, I I don’t even know how to thank you.”
Yuzhi smiled and declined: "Let's talk about it after dinner. There is plenty of time, and this meeting is not a meal time, so I don't want to bother the comrades in the cafeteria. We are also mutually beneficial. Aunt Xiao doesn't need to take it too seriously. I still have to thank you for taking care of me." business."
Xiao Cui made several polite words one after another.
Seeing that Yuzhi really didn't want to eat, Xiao Cui had no choice but to send them away again.
In the following time, Yuzhi really didn’t leave the house, and worked diligently at home making clothes every day.
The matter of signing the agreement was for Xia Xiaoyue to go alone.
Although this order was not made by her, she ran errands, and Yuzhi paid her the hard work. In the future, there may be jobs that require her to run errands, and they will be settled together at the end of each month.
Because of the two large orders, there are fewer ready-made garments for retail sales.
Xia Xiaoyue is not in a hurry, because there are more customizations.
Although it was a small order of two pieces, she was also very happy.
She sells a piece of clothing for fifty cents, but she can earn at least five or six yuan for an order, which is more and easier than before.
Moreover, selling clothes is recommended by her bitterly.
Orders are those old customers who came to the door by themselves, which saved a lot of saliva. Many times, old customers would bring new customers, which made her a lot easier.
Yuzhi prepared a lot of small gifts, such as a handkerchief, a belt, a pair of socks, a pair of gloves, etc., for Xia Xiaoyue to give as small gifts to old customers who bring new customers.
In this way, if you earn money yourself, and the old customers are happy, the business will naturally be better.
Business is good, everyone is happy, Xia Xiaoyue is much more pleasing to the eyes of those who plagiarize their clothes and make them for sale.
As Yuzhi said, these plagiarists can only follow behind them forever and cannot surpass them.
Yuzhi stayed at home for more than ten days, and it was time for the final exam.
Reborn once again, although she suffered physically, but intellectually, she found that she ushered in a highlight.
Only relying on self-study, every time Xia Xiaoyue helped bring back the test papers, she could do very well.
After finishing the final exam, she didn't find it difficult.
Suddenly realized that I seemed to be a genius, secretly beautiful for several days.
The three-day exam will pass soon.
The hot summer season is approaching, the sun is hot outside, and the elm branches are less likely to go out. When I am not making clothes, I feel very comfortable walking in my yard.
Wang Xinfeng accompanies Yuzhi to make clothes every day, and the old lady has as much work as Yuzhi.
It's a holiday, and Xia Xiaoyue will come to help occasionally. She doesn't know how to make clothes, so she does some chores, such as thread cutting and cloth cutting, and she also goes out to take orders.
As much work as she does, Yu Zhi will pay as much as she wants.
Xia Xiaoyue is very motivated, and she doesn't feel guilty about taking money.
Master Sang and Mr. Wei went to chat under the yellow horned tree every day, and they were leisurely and carefree every day, and the small days became more beautiful every day.
It's hot, the big leaves of the yellow horn tree block the sunlight tightly, and the shade under the yellow horn tree is very cool, and the old men and women around love to go under the tree to cool off.
The yellow horn tree is lively from morning to night, but it is a great scene in summer.
Mulberry, Mulberry Ye, and Lan Tianqin were all taken to the base by Father Sang. They might not be able to play this summer vacation.
Sang Dazhuang is still in school. Although he is on vacation, he has not yet mastered his skills. The old man Feng Suixing will not let him go, and he will give him a small stove alone. Every day is the same as in class, and he is not allowed to be late or leave early. Don't even think about it.
For the sake of the truck, Sang Dazhuang could only accept it.
It was the aunt Sang Dazhuang was responsible for looking for, and it was really long in coming.
Fortunately, it is here, and it is an acquaintance, Wang Shengbing and his wife Xu Chunniang.
Xu Chunniang smiled awkwardly at Yuzhi Wang Xinfeng, with her little one-year-old son on her back.
"Well, the child's father heard that Boss Sang asked Brother Li for help, looking for an aunt who cooks and cleans, but he didn't find a suitable one for a long time, so let me try."
"Auntie, sister, I don't want money, just take care of my meal, let me do it. Our family is better off now, thanks to Boss Sang. I always want to be grateful, but I don't know how to do it."
"Finally there is a job I can do, let me do it. My ancestors were imperial cooks, and my grandfather is a chef who is always invited for weddings and weddings in all towns and villages."
"I studied with my grandpa for a few years when I was young. Grandpa praised me for my talent. I was good at cooking. These years, because I was poor and had nothing to cook for me, I couldn't see anything. Just let me try it. gone."
"My craftsmanship is really good. You guys try it. If it doesn't work, I'll just leave. I'm also quick to clean up the house, and I promise to clean everything inside and out."
Xu Chunniang tried her best to express herself, but she was a shy and timid character. When it came to excitement, she blushed and burst into tears, for fear that Yuzhi and the others would not agree.
Yuzhi didn't doubt Xu Chunniang's ability. She lived with her before and watched her work, so she knew that she was a neat person and had a good character.
The main reason is that everyone is relatively familiar, so there is no need to worry about some messy person.
This is the child, who is only over one year old, can he free his hand?
Yuzhi didn't bring much mulberries and mulberry leaves, but she still knew that children over one year old were the most noisy and couldn't relax.
Seeing Yuzhi's eyes on the child, Xu Chunniang hurriedly said, "The child is very obedient and won't make a fuss, and I won't get in the way or cause you any trouble with me. I promise, besides, his brothers and sisters are on vacation now." , can also help take it, if it’s really not good, just throw it to his brothers and sisters.”
"When school starts, this child will be almost one and a half years old. He can walk and talk, and adults don't need to worry about it."
