Chapter 118

    Before the beautiful little sister had time to shiver, she stepped up her legs against the counter to enjoy the sage time. One hand pinched her face and pushed her back. As she struggled in panic to hold something under the effect of losing her balance, she saw through her fingers that the good-looking young man in white and another obviously timid guy walked towards the last partition.


    God is up there. It''s Mr. Dumas''s workshop!


    Dumas, after omitting some meaningless rhetoric and adding his surname Paul, is the main tailor and head of Paul''s clothing store in tenell. The success of Paul''s clothing store has made this small clothing store have such "Paul''s clothing" in almost all major cities in the southeast of the Empire. After the new party succeeded in usurping the throne, the capital power finally ushered in a big outbreak. In order to continuously expand the territory and cope with the limited family population in the process of expansion, the patriarch of the Paul family made a request for his two sons and two daughters.


    That is, the apprentice inclusion plan. The old patriarch believed that if there were suitable and talented apprentices, they could be incorporated into the family by marriage and become their own people, and then continue to expand the influence and territory of Paul''s ready-made clothes for the family. This plan has to be said to be a very wise plan. The tailors have trained apprentices, but if there are no restrictions, they will leave here after their apprenticeship, and then find a store elsewhere to start their first business in their life.


    It is also the so-called "shameless first time" in the mouth of handicraft practitioners in recent years.


    Why didn''t Dooling become an apprentice in any handicraft shop? Because he has not reached the standard of "preaching", simply put, when the inheritor selects apprentices, he actually selects an heir or even his own offspring, so each apprentice is carefully selected and has strict control. Few apprentices are willing to accept the "Exploitation" and "oppression" of the inheritors after learning the craft. They are willing to give up what they already have and start over. At least everything they did at that time was for themselves, not others.


    The girl is such a lucky man. Mr. Duma''s eldest son is 16 years old, two years younger than the girl. He thinks it''s very worthwhile to have a clever girl who can take care of her son all her life. More importantly, after the two get married, as long as she has the skill and ability to set up a shop independently, she will be able to ensure that his eldest son will have no worries about food and clothing for at least his whole life. It''s a very cost-effective investment, isn''t it?


    Of course, Turin doesn''t know anything about all this. Now he just wants to find the best tailor in this clothing store to make two sets of decent clothes for himself, Mason, Dover, Ellis and the fool Graf. As for the others? That''s not what he should consider.


    Mr. Duma is thirty-seven years old this year. He is a little thin, his skin is very dry, there are some shallow wrinkles, his hair is very fluffy, it seems that he often takes care of himself. Wearing a pair of glasses, he is lying in the rocking chair and resting with his eyes closed. It was not until he walked into the partition that Du Lin found that the bright light source from the outside was not omni-directional. In fact, half of it was covered by the lampshade to ensure that most of the soft light in the partition was awakened, while the other half was always illuminated on the translucent screen.


    He still knocked politely on the table. The sound of knocking woke Mr. Duma from his rest immediately. He suddenly sat up, and the gold wire glasses slipped down from the bridge of his nose because of his violent action. Fortunately, a metal chain tied the glasses legs on both sides, otherwise he would be broken. As he stood up, he put on his glasses and a little apologetic smile. "I''m sorry, I''ve been working this morning. I''m a little tired. I''m so sorry. All orders today are 10% off."


    The moment he lowered his head, his face changed and adjusted back. That damned girl, don''t you know to remind him in advance? It''s really a very bad thing to be rude in front of distinguished guests! Deduct her salary!


    Du Lin was very satisfied with the "old gentleman"''s attitude towards work. He first pointed to himself and then to Mason. "Hello, we need two formal clothes for dinner. I hope we can do it as soon as possible. If we can speed up, we''d better speed up."


    Mr. Duma dutifully picked up a notebook on the desktop, stunned the whole person, and then quickly said with a smile: "it''s impolite. Look, I haven''t asked you and this gentleman''s name yet...". After Mr. Duma told him, he wrote down his name and his requirements in the notebook, Then let Du Lin stand under the particularly bright lamp and start the measurement work.


    He asked all kinds of questions while gesticulating with his hands. The whole process lasted about ten minutes. His question was just finished. Then he quickly cut out a suit with some pieces of paper, fixed it with needle and thread, and put it in front of Turin.


    "Mr. durin, you see, this is the formal dress style I designed for you. I adopted the simple style that became popular in the South and middle of this spring, and removed the dark edge structure on the edge of the front collar, which was favored by many gentlemen before, making it more atmospheric. At the same time, I slightly adjusted the width of the sword collar to reflect the vitality of your age and match the edge of the pocket The purple ribbons, with some more youthful vitality, will not appear too frivolous, with a trace of nobility and solemnity... "


    Durin raised his hand at this time. Duma immediately closed his mouth, slightly bent over and smiled, showing a listening look, "I don''t like purple.", yes, durin doesn''t like purple, because purple reminds him of delier''s sissy. The guy''s purple look is so Niang that people can''t look directly at him.


    Duma immediately showed an enlightened expression. He nodded vigorously, "if you don''t like purple, are you satisfied with the color of dark brown?"


    About twenty minutes later, Du Lin''s forehead was sweating. Duma ended his last narration, which made Du Lin sigh. Fortunately, the store didn''t accept him as an apprentice. He really didn''t have to be able to do this!


    Then there was Mason. After nearly 40 minutes, the "samples" made of two pieces of paper were completely finalized. After Mr. Duma calculated it, he reported the price to Turin, "Mr. Du Lin, with the four suits and the jewelry rental agreement provided by the imperial jewelry store, you need to pay a total of 3700 yuan. Because of my impoliteness and the mistakes of the staff, you have some misunderstandings and possible dissatisfaction. I''m in charge. You only need to pay 3300 yuan."


    "Here, I need to remind you that the rental fee of imperial jewelry is not included. You need to take the agreement to any imperial jewelry company to pay the rental fee, you can match all the jewelry, and someone will wear it for you. Do you have any questions?"


    Durin glanced at Mr. Duma and smiled, "you are a smart man. I like smart people. Now I want to apply for five more membership cards. I don''t know if I can?"


    Dumas seemed to know nothing, and took it for granted, "of course, it''s the honor of the Paul family that you can visit the shop. I don''t need any fee. I''ll give you five membership cards immediately, without any deadline, which is universal all over the country!"
