The general's wife knows medicine

"Everyone, we accept reservations for the ready-made clothes at this stall. We will not charge any extra fees, but you need to pay a deposit of thirty cents in advance. The deposit will be deducted from you when you come to pick up the clothes. If you want to make a reservation now, please speak one by one."

Tang Peipei took a look and saw that there were about five people who had made reservations.

He pointed to the young woman standing in the front and said, "Young lady, you go first."

Then he carefully wrote down the little woman's request on paper.

After Tang Peipei registered one person, Lu Lifeng collected the money for that person.

A man nearby asked, "You don't have a storefront. If you take our money now and don't come back later, how can we find you?"

Tang Peipei smiled and said, "Since we are sincere in doing business, we will definitely come. If you are worried, you can also come to the Wolf Hunter Village to find me. I am from the Wolf Hunter Village. You can ask the Lu family who is engaged in the garment business and you will know."

Seeing that Tang Peipei explained it clearly, some people still believed that Tang Peipei would not run away, but some also felt that Tang Peipei was making it up.

He asked, "You said you were from Wolf Hunting Village? Then why don't I know you?"

Tang Peipei looked at the man, who was about twenty years old, and Tang Peipei did not know him.

But now I think I haven't met all the people in the village, so maybe it's just some of them I haven't met.

He asked, "Excuse me, is this big brother from our Wolf Hunting Village?"

The man said, "No, my aunt married into the Wolf Hunter Village. I'm from the village next to yours."

Tang Peipei thought that was the case, and asked again: "Who is this big brother's aunt?"

The man said, "My aunt is Zou Ping."

Tang Peipei was amazed, could it be Zou Ping who did the work for her?

But there wouldn't be two Zou Pings in the same village, right?

He smiled and asked, "Does she have a daughter named Du Jinjin?"

When the man heard Tang Peipei say his cousin's name, he muttered in his heart: Could it be that what this girl said is true?

Asked: "Do you know my aunt and my cousin?"

Tang Peipei said: "Since we are from the same village, isn't it normal for us to know each other?"

The man thought he had questioned the wrong person, and quickly apologized, "I'm so sorry, I didn't see you guys when I went to my aunt's house before, so I misunderstood!"

Tang Peipei smiled in understanding, "It's okay, it's right to have doubts, there's nothing to be embarrassed about."

The man became even more embarrassed, smiled, said hello and left.

There were people nearby who had been thinking about placing an order but had not yet made up their minds. When they heard that Tang Peipei was really from the Wolf Hunting Village, two or three more came to place an order.

Tang Peipei looked at the orders, there were eight of them, and said to them, "Because we have limited manpower at home, you may have to wait three to five days. If it is inconvenient for you to come and pick it up yourself, you can leave your address and I will deliver it to your home. If it is convenient, you can come here in five days to pick it up, okay?"

The families who received the custom-made garments this time are not very poor, but they have never enjoyed this kind of service where the goods are delivered to their doorsteps, a treatment only available to wealthy families. They are all very happy and said that door-to-door delivery would be even better.

Only two people said they would come to get it.

Tang Peipei registered the addresses of those who needed goods delivered to their homes.

After registering the addresses of several people, the crowd dispersed.

Tang Peipei was very happy when she saw the empty clothes rack.

I'm afraid it will only take about an incense stick of time. It seems that her clothes are still very popular with people.

It’s just that we don’t have a store, otherwise we could use some high-end fabrics to make ready-made clothes, which would surely be more popular.

All ten sets of clothes were sold out, as well as some small items such as sachets, handkerchiefs, necklaces and other trinkets.

Tang Peipei saw that there were still many people on the street and realized that she had not made enough ready-made clothes.

I'm afraid the few people we have at home are not enough. It seems we need to recruit more people.

Tang Peipei asked Liu Yeling and Lu Lifeng to look after the stall while she looked around.

I wish I could find a store.

Tang Peipei looked at every store that was open and doing good business, and it seemed that no one would be willing to rent out a store for the time being.

Tang Peipei felt a little disappointed, and the good mood she had just received from receiving so many orders also dissipated.

After Yang Tingzhen returned to Beijing, he was assigned to the city guard.

Today happened to be his day to patrol the streets.

From a distance, I saw Tang Peipei standing on the street with a sad face, looking at the shop opposite.

He said to the soldiers behind him: "You go patrol first, I will be here soon."

After saying that, he walked towards Tang Peipei.

He greeted Tang Peipei with a smile, "Miss Tang."

Tang Peipei heard someone calling her, looked up and saw that it was Yang Tingzhen, and tried to put away her emotions, and said with a smile: "Deputy General Yang, why are you here?"

Yang Tingzhen said, "I am currently serving as a city guard. I happened to be patrolling here today. I saw from a distance that you looked worried. What happened?"

When Tang Peipei thought about the lack of a store, her mentality, which had just been adjusted, became bad again.

He said, "It's because I can't find a shop. The shops on this street seem to be doing very good business. I'm afraid it will be difficult to find a suitable shop."

When he heard it was about the shop, Yang Tingzhen was helpless. He could only think of Mu Jintang, but he heard that Tang Peipei had rejected Mu Jintang's shop before, so he had no choice now.

Just when he was thinking about whether to tell Mu Jintang about what happened to him today with Tang Peipei, he suddenly remembered that he seemed to have seen a shop business notice somewhere.

He said to Tang Peipei, "Miss Tang, are you interested in buying a shop?"

When Tang Peipei heard this, she asked, "Isn't the shop in Beijing cheap?"

Yang Tingzhen had never bought a shop before, so he said, "I seem to have seen a notice of a shop somewhere before. I often patrol the streets. I'll keep an eye out for you and ask for the price when the time comes."

Tang Peipei actually felt that there was little hope of buying a shop. After all, after deducting the expenses of the past few months and the money for purchasing goods, she probably only had about 1,300 taels left. She would have to go back and count how much she had exactly.

But no matter how much it is, I’m afraid it won’t be enough to buy a shop in Beijing, right?

Never mind. Some hope is better than no hope.

He said to Yang Tingzhen: "Thank you, Deputy General Yang. Please don't tell General Mu about this for now."

Tang Peipei knew that Yang Tingzhen was Mu Jintang's person. She still remembered the last time she misunderstood Yang Tingzhen and went to Mu Jintang to tell him.

When Tang Peipei thought about this, he felt a little embarrassed.

The two agreed that Tang Peipei would no longer wander the streets.

Returned to the booth.

The small items on the stall were sold again.

At this time, there were fewer people on the street.

Tang Peipei waved her hand and went home.

The three of them packed up and went home.

Everyone at other stalls was extremely envious of Tang Peipei and his team.

Looking at the things on his stall, he decided to just wait a little longer before going back.

Tang Peipei and the other two returned home happily and shared with their family the news that they had received several orders.

The whole family was very happy when they heard it.

Tang's mother smiled brightly, because she knew that the clothes designed by her daughter would be easy to sell.

"I decided to hire a few more embroiderers. We are still short of manpower." Tang Peipei looked at Aunt Wen and others who came to work.

He asked, "Aunt Wen, Aunt Zou, Aunt Du, do you know anyone who is good at sewing? Could you introduce them to someone?"

Seeing that Tang Peipei's ready-made clothes were really easy to buy, several people were very happy and said that they knew a few people.

Tang Peipei asked them to introduce people to them, and if they were suitable, they could stay and work with them.

"My requirements are just a few points. You must be honest and hardworking, not afraid of hardship, and talk less but act faster. When the time comes, you can introduce someone to me. After you actually work here, I will give you ten cents each."

Hearing that there would be money for introducing people, several people said that they would carefully select people according to Tang Peipei's requirements after returning.
