Zhu Jingyuan stood up and came to the living room again, looked at the craftsmen who were still waiting, and asked their opinions with a smile:
"Everyone, please judge whether there will be a market for these clothes if they are sold in Taixi?"
Chu Yuqiang and the craftsman both considered it, and Chu Yuqiang responded directly at this time:
"Reporting to Your Highness, I think it is most appropriate for the first set of clothes to be sold as men's clothing in Thailand and the West.
"If His Highness can personally cooperate with the demonstration and use appropriate means to promote it, the market should be opened quickly.
“Although these clothes use the best materials and the best production technology.
“But the production process itself is simple enough.
“Selling in the name of His Highness’ design can guarantee a relatively high price, and theoretically the profit will be very considerable.
“Then there are high heels, which with a slight tweak to the design and embellishment are unisex items.
"And it will have less impact on Thai and Western society, and it will be easier to directly open the market."
Zhu Jingyuan nodded lightly:
"These are all to be expected. What about the other two sets of clothes? What do you think?"
The old craftsman who spoke before said:
"The top of the second set of clothes, matched with the skirt of the third set, is changed into a plaid pattern and sold to Scottish men. There should be a market.
After hearing this, Chu Yuqiang also added:
“I feel that this combination may not be sold to other Thais. Pleated skirts are not only found in Scotland, but they are also an important feature of Ming Dynasty clothing.
"If we promote it in the name of Ming Dynasty skirts, there may not be a market in other countries in Europe and the West."
A suit jacket with a pleated skirt is the typical Western-style girls' college uniform of later generations.
Selling this kind of clothes to men in the current Thai and Western Continent, with a high possibility of success, left Zhu Jingyuan a little speechless.
Zhu Jingyuan was noncommittal and continued to ask for other ideas.
Apart from Chu Yuqiang, the only Ming craftsman at the scene said:
"Your Highness, I think the third set of clothes... can be paired with the second set of high heels and sold directly to some... romantic occasions..."
Zhu Jingyuan laughed directly after hearing this:
"This great engineer has great ideas, but I don't want to do it for the time being. No one is allowed to do it without my permission."
Chu Yuqiang and other craftsmen quickly agreed.
Subconsciously, they thought that this was something Zhu Jingyuan prepared for his woman to use in the back house.
Several craftsmen discussed for a while, but they didn't have any good ideas for the two sets of women's clothing.
Mainly because in the eyes of the craftsmen, the designs of Zhu Jingyuan's last two sets of women's clothing were too outrageous.
I can only be sure that the first set of men's clothing, the subsequent high-heeled shoes, and the final flat leather shoes should be easier to sell.
Zhu Jingyuan was not too disappointed with this. The main products of his firm were originally capitalist suits and high heels.
Those two sets of women's clothes...even if they are for the foreign maids of my family, that's all they can do for the time being...
After the discussion of the design itself came to an end, Zhu Jingyuan once again threw out the invitation he had mentioned:
“The craftsmanship of all craftsmen is trustworthy, and they are all talents needed by the new business firm that I want to open.
"I am about to leave the Western Cape. Those of you who are willing to join my new trading firm should tidy up in the next two days.
"We will officially set off in five days..."
In the past five days, several craftsmen have already thought about it and even arranged their family affairs in advance.
Now they stood up without hesitation and expressed their willingness to join Zhu Jingyuan's new business firm.
Zhu Jingyuan nodded with great satisfaction, then noticed that Chu Yuqiang's expression was a bit complicated, and he hesitated to speak, so he subconsciously asked:
"What's wrong? Is Chu Gong also interested?"
Chu Yuqiang bowed slightly and said:
"Your Highness, I am indeed interested. If possible, I hope that Your Highness can take him in..."
Zhu Jingyuan asked in surprise:
"Gong Chu is an employee of the royal consortium. My business is just my personal property, and it has not been officially established yet. Why is Gong Chu willing to give up his job in the royal consortium and come over?"
Chu Yuqiang explained helplessly:
“The traditional business of the Royal Garment Company is mainly Ming Dynasty clothing.
“When we make Thai and Western clothing, we just don’t want to give up this market and allow ourselves to have this business scope.
"In fact, we don't pay much attention to this aspect of business, but your highness's business seems to specialize in making Thai and Western clothes.
“His Royal Highness also has to personally design and promote it, which is obviously something he really attaches great importance to.
"So I think that I can play a greater role with His Highness."
Zhu Jingyuan fell silent after listening.
Zhu Jingyuan subconsciously considered separating the Thai and Western clothing business of the Royal Garment Company and building a new business for himself.
But soon gave up.
Making your own clothes is not just for the sake of making clothes, but more of a social experiment.
Developing a large-scale clothing store and making money by making clothes is not its fundamental purpose.
How can making clothes be compared with digging for oil?
So in the end, Zhu Jingyuan did not bring up any other ideas, but just nodded gently to Chu Yuqiang:
"Well, since Gong Chu is really interested in coming here, I will apply to the consortium to transfer Gong Chu over."
Chu Yuqiang immediately bowed and saluted again
"Please, Your Highness."
Matters related to Thai and Western clothing have been finalized.
Two days later, on September 30, the 34th year of the Ming Dynasty, the Mozhou Development Supervision and Management Department under the League of Nations Cabinet was formally established.
Representatives of various countries in the League of Nations formally signed the Convention on the Development and Construction of Mexico Continent.
The various regulations and requirements put forward by Zhu Jingyuan at the Mozhou Development Conference were officially confirmed.
At noon the next day, another grand banquet was held in the Ming Dynasty's Western Cape Imperial Mansion and the Huihai Palace in the outer city.
Celebrate the conclusion of all talks, celebrate world peace, and wish Mozhou a bright future.
Representatives of the Ming Dynasty, all its affiliated countries, Huangzhuang, and all the countries in Europe and the West gathered together again.
At the banquet before the meeting, most of the guests were nervous, but they basically relaxed at this banquet.
Everyone has no important tasks anymore, so they come to this last banquet with a real mentality of entertainment and farewell.
The layout of the banquet was similar to that before the talks, and Zhu Jingyuan was still the undoubted protagonist.
After the banquet officially started, Zhu Jingyuan entered the venue, stood at the main seat holding a wine glass, and delivered another speech.
In order to respond first and foremost, the theme of this speech is world peace.
Zhu Jingyuan once again reiterated the Ming Dynasty's commitment to the European and American countries and would not ask for all the native territories of the European and American countries.
After a burst of warm cheers, Zhu Jingyuan raised his glass high:
"For the sake of world peace, we drink this cup to the full!"
All the representatives immediately raised their glasses high.
Then, following Zhu Jingyuan, he raised his neck and drank it all in one gulp.
The ceremonial activities ended and the singing and dancing entertainment officially began.
After three rounds of singing and dancing, the banquet entered free time.
Zhu Jingyuan stood up and returned to the back hall.
He asked two servants to help him take off the Ming Dynasty Prince's robe and put on the capitalist suit prepared in advance.
During formal ceremonial sessions, it was impossible for Zhu Jingyuan to wear any Thai-Western style clothing, and he would have to wait until free time to show off.
The timing is perfect now.
At this banquet, there were the most important high-ranking officials in the courts of various countries in Europe and the West, as well as the highest-ranking nobles, as well as a large number of high-ranking military officials.
After this banquet, it will not be that easy to gather so many people of the same level.
The key is that you have to be on the western continent to have a chance.
To be on the safe side, it is best not to visit the mainland of Thailand and Western countries.
Although my own firm is not ready yet, the Royal Garment Firm has ready-made manpower, materials, and drawings.
It takes time for news about yourself to spread, and it also takes time for clear photos of yourself to spread.
The time for this news to ferment is enough for the Royal Garment Company's Western Branch to prepare.
Zhu Jingyuan changed his clothes, and sisters An Xiaona and Luo Feiya were also dressed up and rushed over under the guidance of the servants.
The three girls all put on Thai and Western-style dresses, but sister An Xiaona wore adult women's clothes, and Luo Feiya wore children's clothes.
In line with the idea that the three of them would be uncomfortable for a while, but the Thai people would be uncomfortable for decades, Zhu Jingyuan made the three children wear high heels.
Now let the three little girls follow him out just to show off the high heels.
After everything was ready, Zhu Jingyuan came to the front hall again with the three little girls.
There is no need to prepare at all. Zhu Jingyuan himself is the biggest hot spot. As long as he shows up, he will immediately attract the attention of the people around him.
Zhu Jingyuan's current clothes have created a huge topic.
There were exclamations of surprise all around.
These exclamations spread quickly, causing most of the people in the banquet hall to pay attention.
He noticed the outfits of Zhu Jingyuan and the three girls.
Immediately triggered a larger scale of surprise.
Photographers and media personnel from various countries at the scene immediately became energetic after seeing the situation here.
Immediately turn the equipment over and prepare to take photos, and at the same time start thinking about news headlines and content.
Zhu Jingyuan walked into the crowd unhurriedly and chatted nonsense with a few confused Taixi princes.
Then he went to the women's hall, said a few words in public, and then returned to the apse again.
After Zhu Jingyuan left, the scene started to buzz with discussion.
Prince Charles of France muttered in confusion.
"Just now...His Royal Highness Prince Dashi's clothes...are they the clothes of our Taixi?"
French Foreign Minister Talleyrand observed more carefully:
"Not exactly, the style of the clothes is very questionable, there are no tight shorts and silk stockings, and he is also wearing a strange hat.
"Especially those loose and straight trousers... This kind of dress should not appear at a noble banquet..."
Prince Charles asked subconsciously:
"Why can't you show up at the banquet? Is there any banquet with a higher level than this one?
"Furthermore, I think His Royal Highness Prince Dashi's outfit is very spirited, very elegant, and very elegant...
"I really didn't expect that our Taixi clothes would look so good on His Highness Prince Dashi."
Talleyrand felt something was wrong, but he couldn't put it into words:
"It does look pretty good, but it can't be considered a Thai-Western dress, at least it's not an aristocratic dress..."
Prince Charles immediately asked again:
"Can the clothes worn by His Highness Prince Dashi not be aristocratic clothes? Is there any nobleman more noble than His Highness Prince Dashi?"
Talleyrand was at a loss to explain:
"It seems...that's indeed what happened..."
Prince Charles continued:
"Since it is aristocratic clothing, and it is very classy and elegant enough, I also want to try a similar style..."
Similar topics have been discussed in many places.
Many Thai and Westerners feel that the design of Zhu Jingyuan's clothes does not meet the standards and is not considered aristocratic clothing.
But there are more people who directly use Zhu Jingyuan's identity to refute and use Zhu Jingyuan's identity to explain.
Anyway, all problems are no longer a problem when it comes to Zhu Jingyuan's identity.
The discussion later turned into admiration.
The situation is more serious for women, whose signs are more flexible than men's.
They basically didn't question it and regarded the style of Zhu Jingyuan's clothes as the new standard for men's clothing in the future.
The shoes of the three little girls An Xiaona were also noticed by many girls who like high heels.
The first thing they care about is not whether the shoes look good, but that these shoes are obviously different from their own shoes.
The shoes of An Xiaona and the others were worn by the women of His Highness Prince Ming, so they must be better than their own.
I immediately decided in my heart that after returning to Taixi, I would immediately go to a shoemaker to make shoes of a similar style.
Then you can boast that you have the same style as the woman of His Royal Highness Prince Dashi.
At this moment, Zhu Jingyuan had returned to the back hall and changed his clothes directly.
As Zhu Jingyuan, there is no need to show it for a long time. As long as he has actually worn it and this happened.
Some noble men and women and media reporters helped them promote it.
After Zhu Jingyuan changed his clothes and came back to rest, he urged the three little girls beside him to change their clothes as well.
At the very least, put your shoes back on first. High heels really affect growth and development. Just wear them when necessary. They are forbidden for daily use.
Zhu Jingyuan is in the process of training now, and he doesn't want to raise a few with lower limb deformities.
We cannot poison our own people first in order to poison the Thai people.
After the banquet that day, representatives from various countries went back to rest for a day, and then began to leave the port and return home one after another.
On October 3, the thirty-fourth year of the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Jingyuan also officially led the Ming Dynasty mission back home.
Maid and subordinates An Xiaona, An Xiaofu and Luo Feiya.
His staff were Lin Zexu and Niu Jian, and Shi Liu Zhixin, the Minister of Dashi.
Guard Guan Tianpei and all the guards in the town.
Shen Fu, Shaoqing of Honglu Temple in the Ming Dynasty, and all members of the delegation.
Wang Lai, head of the Ship Department of the Ministry of Industry of the Ming Dynasty, and all ship design craftsmen.
Ninth Uncle Zhu Jianfeng, his wife and other clan members.
Members of delegations from various vassal states and foreign imperial villages.
Chu Yuqiang and other craftsmen in the apparel industry.
Nearly two thousand people of all kinds boarded the Zhoushan Island passenger ship again and left the Western Cape Huangzhuang where they had lived for half a year.
