Chapter 79: Chapter 79: The First Order (Part 5)

"It really is made in a tailor shop." Tang Yue said with amusement, seeing Tang Mingli’s clearly disbelieving look, she couldn’t help but add, "Uncle, this dress is indeed made by a tailor shop, but the design is my own. You think it’s good, don’t you?"

"It’s more than just good; if this dress were sold in a store, it would definitely be expensive." Tang Mingli wished he could sell this dress immediately. He asked, "How much for this dress? How much should it be sold for?"

"Ahem." Tang Yue cleared her throat, just about to mention the price when she heard a woman’s voice asking, "Young lady, where did you buy this dress? Are there any similar ones?"

Tang Yue turned her head and realized that quite a few people were looking at her. On her way here, everyone was whispering, commenting on how nice the dress looked, and some were inquiring about it, but when they heard the price, they hesitated.

"A friend of mine made it, there’s only this one piece. I just got it." Tang Yue smiled and answered, sizing up the woman in front of her. The clothes on the woman seemed to be on the more expensive side.

"There’s only one?" Disappointment was evident in the woman’s eyes.

"Miss, if you’d like to buy, I can take your measurements and make one for you." Tang Yue added.

The woman’s eyes lit up again as she asked, "How long would it take to make a dress? And how much would it cost?"

"This fabric for the dress was shipped from Sea City, so it’s a bit pricey," Tang Yue started by mentioning the price.

When she quoted US$ 60 for a piece, Tang Mingli’s eyes nearly bulged out. He quickly bowed his head, pretending to arrange the clothes, but in reality, his mind was turning upside-down.

He had been selling clothes for half a year and the most expensive piece was a little over ten yuan. Xiao Yue, on the other hand, was asking for US$ 60 right off the bat.

This coat was worth two months’ salary for some people.

"Can I touch the fabric?" The woman didn’t comment on the price being expensive, she simply made a request.

"Of course." Tang Yue took off the dress and handed it to the woman.

"Let’s talk about it in the shop, I’ve set a stove going in there," Tang Mingli hurriedly interjected, reminding them that they were still on the street.

Worrying Tang Yue might be cold, Tang Mingli took off his coat and draped it over her.

Once the woman had the dress in her hands, she could feel the quality and saw that the stitching was very delicate. She immediately took a liking to the dress, but thinking about having a dress identical to someone else’s didn’t sit right with her, especially after seeing it.

"Miss, if you’d like to have it made, I can add a waist belt for you, and make some adjustments to the collar and cuffs," Tang Yue suggested on the spot, noticing her fondness and hesitation.

"That’s great, I’ll take one, but I would need it in two days. Can you manage that?" The woman said, no longer hesitant upon hearing Tang Yue’s words.

"Sure." Tang Yue nodded immediately and added, "Miss, this dress is expensive, so if you want to have it made, you’ll need to pay half the deposit upfront."

"That’s only right." The woman promptly paid thirty yuan to Tang Yue, then asked, "Where should I come to pick up the dress once it’s ready?"

"Xiao Yue is in Wangjiang First Middle School and ranked first in her grade," Tang Mingli said, unable to resist showing off as soon as this topic was brought up. Being the first in the entire grade in Wangjiang County where there were a lot of students was no easy feat. 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺
