Chapter 244 Continue
Within the fleeting minute, women who had come to get clothes made or to pick up their garments gathered around.
They asked all at once, finding the timing perfect with the current weather; a lighter inner layer was suitable, and when it got colder, pairing it with a sweater or cotton-padded clothes was also fine. The styles were both novel and attractive, and if the price was right, they all wanted to buy.
"So, can you make these here?"
"I’m sorry, but this dress was custom-made for this young lady, and she plans to sell them. We can’t just make them for anyone," Sister Liu explained. This garment was made according to a contract signed with Yang PeiMin and was distributed among everyone to work on the production process. Even if the female workers knew roughly how to make it, they would still miss some details. And while some details might not seem important, to those who know about clothes, it’s these details that show whether a garment fits comfortably and highlights its strengths.
"She’s planning to sell it? Then, how much did she plan to sell it for? If the price isn’t too high, I’d buy one."
Yang PeiMin smiled slightly, "That’s certainly possible. The material and craftsmanship of my product are both of high quality, as you can see, and I’m only making a small profit for my efforts, five yuan per piece."
"Five yuan? That’s expensive, miss. With that amount, you wouldn’t know how many you could buy elsewhere." Indeed, female comrades were the best at haggling.
The price really wasn’t high; she was just making a profit of two yuan for herself, and after running around so much, transportation and effort weren’t even accounted for.
"It’s not expensive, miss. The cheapest you can find these clothes in a store is fifteen yuan. Moreover, their styles aren’t as nice as mine. Look at my material compared to theirs—it’s about the same. It’s both comfortable and warm to wear. There are two colors available, and you can also try them on. Let others help you decide which color looks better. This dress doesn’t discriminate against body types or ages; it’s a real bargain. I didn’t make many, just twenty pieces, and I’m keeping two for myself."
Seeing her say that, half of the six people present were tempted to buy, especially when they heard they could try them on; they picked their favorite colors and started trying them on right away.
