Chapter 166 Cooperation
Lu Mengji stared at the beautiful and drooling face and shook his head.
"I don't think I've seen it, otherwise I will definitely have an impression of your face." That face as evil as Xiao Qian, if you see it, you will definitely not forget it.
Xiao Ding seemed to think of something, but when he saw that Lu Mengjian was so resolute, he immediately changed the topic and finally talked about the two sets of dresses designed by Lu Mengjian before.
At the beginning, Xiao Ding only felt that the design was very novel and the style of the clothes was also very unique, but he didn't expect that the effect of the made-made clothes was extremely good. He was bought in the store one day. Two times in a row, Xiao Ding will naturally not miss any good opportunity to make a fortune, but today's meeting was a good start, but it was disturbed by Xiao Qian.
"Well, Miss Lu, today she was reckless and bumped into the girl. Please forgive her. As for the girl's design drawings, Xiao has nothing to say. Well, Xiao apologized to the girl and asked the girl to say a condition of cooperation. As long as it is within Xiao's acceptance, everything is fine.
Lu Mengjie had a variety of responses in his heart, but he didn't expect the opportunity to come so easily, but the other party was originally a businessman. If he opened his mouth, even if he did not make a statement at present, future cooperation would inevitably have a grudge.
"Well, I will provide a drawing for Yunyifang every month in the future, but I won't sell this drawing," Lu Mengji said indifferently.
"Don't sell? Why?"
To tell you the truth, in fact, I don't care about money and other things. Although I am not rich and noble, I never lack food and clothing. It's just that I have always liked to draw pictures. The clothes I designed can be favored by Yunyifang, and these skirts are their glory and my pride. It's a very lucky thing for me."
"Mr. Lu said so, Xiao is really ashamed, but in any case, Xiao must not accept Miss Lu's design for nothing. Yunyifang does conscientious work and sells conscientious clothes. Xiao will never do that ignorant thing." Xiao Ding's words made Lu Mengji more and more appreciate it. If he really accepted those drawings in vain, Lu Mengji would consider cooperating with him again.
Although a drawing is not worth much, the benefits it creates are not a small amount. Even for Yunyifang, the net profit has quadrupled since it was made according to Lu Mengjian's drawings. Xiao Qian refused to be greedy for small advantages, but earned a sincere partner, which is the most cost-effective business.
"Well, I have 20,000 taels of silver here. I want to buy a share in Yunyifang. I don't know what does Manager Xiao think?"
"This..." For Xiao Ding, 20,000 taels of silver is not a large amount, even a fraction of the Xiao family's industry. However, if we can cooperate with Lu Mengji for a long time, Yunyifang's business will definitely get better and better. After all, everyone loves to wear beautiful clothes, but not everyone can design them.
"Well, since Miss Lu trusts us in Yunyifang, Xiao won't go any corners. From now on, how about the income of the clothes designed by Ms. Lu be divided into six or four? How about Miss Lu?" Xiao Ding is slightly painful, and 60% is not a small number for him.
"Shopkeeper Xiao is too polite. I'll take the small head and you take the big head, so that it makes sense."
Xiao Ding just wanted to say a few words politely, but he saw Lu Mengjian wave his hand, "Shopkeeper Xiao, if you say more, you will look down on me. If you really like my design drawings, say a few more words in front of outsiders and beat out the signboard of Yunyifang."
"I have a good idea now," Lu Mengjian's words aroused Xiao Ding's curiosity. "I think there are many women who choose wedding clothes in Yunyifang. In fact, this is a great business opportunity!"
"A great business opportunity, how to say this?" For Xiao Ding, there are many garment stores that sell wedding clothes, and most of the women who can afford wedding clothes are women from large and rich families, but a woman only has only one chance to wear wedding clothes in her life, so no matter how beautiful the wedding clothes are, without customers, it is just a pile of cloth.
"Think about it, those daughters have a chance to wear wedding clothes once in their lives. Of course, they have to choose the best. Besides, those who have money in their hands, even if they don't choose the best, they will choose the most expensive one. In this case, we will seize their psychology and let those brides become the most beautiful women at the wedding."
"No, no. To tell you the truth, the wedding clothes are actually the least popular clothes in Yunyifang. First, fewer people buy it, and second, this dress can only be worn once. No matter how much others like it, it is impossible to buy it together with friends. Xiao Ding analyzed everything involved in business very seriously.
"Shopkeeper Xiao rest assured that although there is only one chance to wear this wedding dress, if this dress can become a woman's most beautiful memory, she will be willing to spend more money. What's more, there is more than one thing sold with the wedding clothes. Lu Mengji smiled and said, "This is the legendary bundled sales."
In modern society, a wedding is driven not only by wedding dresses, but also by catering, photography, makeup, etc. in an industrial chain. Although the ancients did not have so many patterns, for women who think that marriage is too big, even the simplest wedding will be bigger than the sky.
"Miss Lu said very well about the bundled sale!" Xiao Ding clapped his hands with admiration, "What else does Miss Lu have? Just say it. Tomorrow, Xiao will draw up a contract and agree that Miss Lu will invest in Yunyifang."
"Okay, I will prepare a silver ticket to wait for the shopkeeper Xiao. As for bundle sales, the specific idea is not mature enough for the time being, but can shopkeeper Xiao look for a few female mates now?
Xiao Ding looked at Lu Mengji doubtfully.
"All the guys in the store are good, but men and women have always been unfriendly, and women buy clothes, and naturally women's service is good."
Xiao Ding realized, but it was a little difficult. It is his job for a man to work and a woman to take care of the house. However, if he really wants to hire some women as clerks, he is afraid that the outside world will not be well-reviewed, and I'm afraid that Yunyifang's business will also be implicated at that time.
In Pulan City, although women mainly take the family, there are many people who go out to work. Lu Mengzhi never thought that in Kyoto, people's thoughts are more conservative.
"I will think more about this matter. As for other Lu girls, you don't have to worry about it." Xiao Ding smiled and took Lu Mengji's words. I don't know when a servant came up behind Lu Mengji and served a cup of new tea.
Lu Mengji took out the newly painted cheongsam drawings in the morning and handed them to Xiao Ding. Naturally, Xiao Ding was full of beautiful words. Lu Mengji got up and said goodbye, and immediately had a young man leading the way all the way to Yunyifang.
You Ziqi was anxious in the store. He originally wanted to go in with Lu Mengji, but the clerk of Yunyifang didn't let him take a step further. The more he waited, the more worried he was for fear that a weak woman would be bullied. Besides, he was from a business family. Naturally, he also knew the nature of a businessman, and Lu Mengji was not deeply involved in the world. If he met a deep-minded person, he was afraid that he would not know that he would be sold.
"Meng Jian, you came out..." You Ziqi looked at Lu Meng Jian carefully and didn't see anything strange, so he was relieved.
"Go, let's go home and talk about it!" Lu Mengji waved his hand, and You Ziqi immediately followed him out of Yunyifang.
Lu Mengji was very interested and kept wandering on the street. He bought sugar-coated haws and wanted to buy Tang people. After a while, there were a lot of gadgets in You Ziqi's arms. Now, You Ziqi knew the result of the conversation without asking, so the two were no longer in a hurry to go home. They ran to the well-known Muji soup noodle shop in the literary circle to eat a few bowls of tea, added a few water cards to the wall, and then wandered home.
Speaking of Muji soup noodles, to put it bluntly, it is the favorite place for those literary and fresh in modern society, but the most famous thing about Muji is that they can donate water cards to those poor literati who can't afford noodles, which is also an indirect charity.
Out of Muji, Lu Mengji pointed to the east, and You Ziqi pulled her to the west. As soon as the two turned the corner, the figure that worried Lu Mengji immediately appeared at the door of Muji.
But this person is not Lin Daimo, but Xiangzi who rescued Lu Mengji that day.
With no salary for a month, the poorer family, which was already difficult to take over, jingle sounded.
Xiangzi lowered his head for the first time and entered Muji, trying to get a bowl of water for his mother.
You Ziqi was secretly glad that he was not found by Lin Daimo, and Lu Mengzhi's heart was numb with a narrow smile on his face.
"Hey, did you say something wrong just now? Why did you have to pull me here?" Lu Mengji stayed in place and insisted on You Ziqi to give an answer.
You Ziqi's eyes turned and naturally refused to let her find out the fact that she deliberately avoided someone. "Ha ha, of course, you came here because you haven't been shouting that you want to watch juggling. Oh, that's right ahead!"
Lu Mengji looked forward with shining eyes, but saw nothing. "Where is it? Don't you beat gongs and drums in juggling? Why didn't I hear it?
"Hahaha, you're playing monkeys, you really believe it!"
"Stop, don't run, I really won't hit you..."
Lu Mengji chased and fought with You Ziqi on the street regardless of the image. It was only when he returned to the courtyard of Youfu that his image had just been completely destroyed by the person in front of him. "Ouch" covered his face and ran back to his room.
"Mom, who bullied you, I will avenge you." The tender little face is shining. As soon as his mother opens her mouth, he will have a useful place. There is no forest to run here every day, and no friends can fight. It's really boring.
"Your boy's skin is itchy again, isn't it? But for the sake of speaking for your mother, I'll spare you this time! Have you memorized today's class? Come and recite a paragraph to relieve my mother's boredom. Lu Mengjie seriously taught Youyou a lesson. Unexpectedly, he was called by this boy every day that he really felt that he had a son. The difference between the two was only seven or eight years old. The age difference was also strange.
As soon as I heard this, I immediately covered my buttocks and couldn't help moving my feet out. "Mom, my tail hurts. Oh, it hurts me so much. I have to go to the hut..."
sent Youyou away, and You Ziqi immediately followed up, with a strong smile on his face. He sat down next to Lu Mengzhen and counted the delicious and interesting places in Kyoto. As he spoke, he suddenly paused and seemed to say carelessly, "Meng Jian, let's be so happy together, or in the future I'll make do with it. Let's settle it together!"
