Chapter 178 Build momentum!

When he heard the young man with long faces, the young man with round faces suddenly opened his eyes and asked, "What are you saying right? I remember, you said two days ago that you could not contact your cousin?"

"Hey... It's a coincidence! Just this morning, I wanted to go to the door of the Wuding King's Mansion to try my luck, but who would have thought that not long after I arrived, I saw my cousin walking out of the palace with a few kitchen aunts who bought vegetables. You know, I don't have any other skills, and I still have a good way of following people. Finally, I finally seized an opportunity and chatted with my cousin alone..."

Speaking of this, the young man with a long face suddenly stopped talking and kept him in a silence.

Seeing this, the young man with round face seemed to be angry, but he still patiently bowed and said, "Brother Ma, I know I shouldn't have doubted you just now. You just don't remember the villain, so let me spare this time?"

"Haha...Who of us brothers is with whom? I'm playing with you!" After slapping the shoulders of the round-faced young man, the long-faced young man said mysteriously: "According to my cousin, she is very familiar with Princess Minyi's personal maid, so inadvertently, I heard Princess Minyi's personal maid say that the reason why Mr. Lei has not walked out of the palace during this period is because he is busy preparing for the clothing store!"

"What...that Young Master Lei wants to open a ready-to-wear shop? This...this is really great! To be honest, I have wanted to buy a few sets of new men's clothing he designed!" The young man with round face clenched his fists with his eyes lit up.

"Who said no! When I first heard about this news, I was so excited! So I had decided that even if I didn't go to ", I would still buy a few more new men's clothing he designed!" The young man with a long face also nodded vigorously with excitement.

"That... I'll pay for this wine! Brother Ma, I have something to do at home, so I'll take the lead!" After the round-faced young man threw down this sentence, he threw down a silver ingot and trotted away from the restaurant.

Looking at the hurried back of the young man with a round face, the young man with a long face was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly realized that this guy was leaving so fast that he must have gone to show off everywhere!

"This stingy guy... actually wants to send me whatever he wants to pay for a meal of wine? Humph... there is no door!"

After muttering in a low voice, the young man with long face quickly strode away and chased the young man with round face.

Shortly after the young man with a long face left, the news that the "talented man Lei Ming was preparing to open a garment store" quickly spread throughout the capital like snowflakes, with a overwhelming speed of madness.

People are all showing off. After the powerful children who attended the banquet returned home, in order to show their superiority, they almost met people, and they had to talk about what they saw and heard at the banquet. At first, they might not have exaggerated the facts, but as word of mouth was passed on, the rumors about Lei Dong were quickly exaggerated.

In this way, the new styles designed by Lei Dong were naturally praised to the sky.

If there was no news that Lei Dong was going to open a ready-to-wear store, the ordinary rich children in the capital might not be excited to tell each other. After all, it would be enough for them to be happy for a long time to take a look at things designed by talented people of the level of Lei Dong. How could they dare to hope that they could wear the new style of clothing designed by Lei Dong himself?

However, when they heard that Lei Dong was going to open a garment store, their original mentality that they didn't even dare to expect was immediately ignited by Xiong! They all knew that since they wanted to open a garment store, the price would definitely not be too high! In this way, as long as they save money, they could still buy a new style of clothing designed by Lei Dong!

Once human suffering is born, it can no longer be curbed. With excitement, these ordinary rich children are counting their lives almost every day.

And just as everyone was looking forward to it, another new news spread quickly.

According to some well-informed people, the ready-to-wear garment shop that the talented man Lei Ming is about to open will not only sell high-end boutique clothing in bustling areas such as commercial areas, but also sell relatively low-end ordinary clothing in bustling areas such as civilian areas.

As soon as this news came out, the entire capital caused a sensation.

Compared with the children of ordinary wealthy families or powerful children of large families, the most common people in the capital are the daughters of ordinary people.

Everyone has a love for beauty, so these ordinary children naturally want to wear new clothes designed by Lei Dong to make themselves more beautiful. However, due to family conditions, they can only hope.

However, when I heard that the garment shop that the talented man Lei Ming was about to open would also sell relatively low-end ordinary clothing in less prosperous areas such as civilian areas, these common people were ecstatic to find that their luxury was no longer a luxury, but was likely to become a reality!

Nothing makes people feel happier than a dream come true. When I think that I can wear beautiful new clothes like those rich children, attracting the attention of the opposite sex, these commoners in the capital use their own means and try their best to save money.

Just when the curiosity and expectation of the people in the capital were completely aroused, Lei Dong was planning his next plan in his management residence with a tired look on his face.

In fact, in the past week, Lei Dong did not go out at the gate of the King of Wuding's Mansion like the people in the capital saw. On the contrary, after using simple disguise techniques to disguise himself as a middle-aged guard with a black face and short beard, he had to go out early and come back late almost every day during the more than a week, running back and forth between the various urban areas of the capital.

Of course, there will always be rewards when working hard. After more than a week of busy work, the garment shops and garment workshops that have just been purchased in various urban areas of the capital have basically been run away by Lei Dong. According to Lei Dong's estimate, it may take less than half a month before these new stores will be officially opened.

When Lei Dong thought of this, his fatigue over the past few days seemed to have temporarily disappeared, and his body suddenly became full of energy.

By the way... I don’t know how the matter with Princess Minyi is doing? I have to go and supervise it while I have time now.

After coming back to his senses from contemplation, Lei Dong immediately put on his outer robe and walked towards the door.

"Brother Lei... Why are you going out to work hard again just after you came back?"

As soon as Lei Dong walked out of his management residence, he was just around the corner of the corridor and met Tian Rong, the head of the inner warehouse who was rushing over.

Lei Dong can roughly guess the purpose of Tian Rong's arrival.

Since Lei Dong made a big splash at Princess Minyu's birthday party, Tian Rong immediately changed his attitude towards Lei Dong. If Lei Dong hadn't insisted, I'm afraid that Tian Rong would be calling now, it would not be "Brother Lei" but "Master".

To be honest, when Lei Dong was shocked when he saw Tian Rong regard himself as his eldest disciple and insisted on calling him a master. However, after calming down, Lei Dong still refused Tian Rong's request very resolutely. He didn't want to accept a eunuch as his disciple!

After being rejected by Lei Dong, Tian Rong was not discouraged. As soon as Lei Dong came back from outside, he immediately put down his work and ran over to ask Lei Dong for advice on calligraphy.

Seeing that this was not a solution, Lei Dong simply wrote more than a dozen copies of copybooks and threw them to Tian Rong. Of course, Lei Dong's copybooks were not for nothing. While throwing them to Tian Rong, he also asked Tian Rong to copy these copybooks a hundred times before coming to him.

Not everyone can get Lei Dong's copybooks now! Not to mention, they got more than a dozen copies at once! In Tian Rong's opinion, this was like a dream! In his ecstasy, he didn't say anything, and he held these copybooks in his hands, and couldn't wait to go back and copy them.

Alas... It's rare for a few days to be purified, why did this guy come back?

After sighing depressedly, Lei Dong smiled bitterly and shook his head, "I don't want to be so busy either! But the key to the problem is that things are piled up together, so it's okay not to be busy!"

"Well... I have heard that you are going to open a garment store, too. However, no matter how busy you are, you should pay more attention to your health!" Tian Rong said sympathetically.

"Haha... Thank you for your kind reminder. If nothing happens, I will go to find the princess?"

Seeing Lei Dong say this, Tian Rong quickly reached out his hand, took out an exquisite wooden box from his storage bag, and handed it to Lei Dong.

"Brother Lei, this wooden box contains the copybook that I have copied these days. If you have time, please help me take a look..."

"Okay... there is no problem! When I come back in the evening, I will help my brother take a good look. If there is anything that needs improvement, I will write it down and give it to you by brother." After nodding with a smile, Lei Dong put away the exquisite wooden box handed over by Tian Rong.

Seeing this, Tian Rong also knew that he probably had no chance to ask Lei Dong for advice in person today, so he found an excuse and turned around and walked back to his supervisor's residence.

After parting with Tian Rong, Lei Dong took a big step and walked directly to the attic where Princess Minyi was.

...

In the attic—

Princess Minyi was lowering her head and thinking about something. After hearing the footsteps, she turned her head and looked at the stairs. Seeing that Lei Dong was walking up, her eyes lit up first, and then she deliberately frowned and asked, "You busy man, why did you suddenly run over to see me today when you have time?"

"There's no way... I'll miss the princess!" Lei Dong shrugged and said with a smile.

"Are you lying? If nothing happens, can you come to find me?" After his pretty face turned slightly red, Princess Minyi threw Lei Dong a big roll of eyes.

"Oh... I can't hide anything from the princess' eyes!" After a smile, Lei Dong leaned directly on the wooden chair beside Princess Minyi.

"Tell me... what's the matter with me?" Princess Minyi turned her head and looked, with a thunderous thunder still on her face, and she asked softly.

"It's not a big deal. I just want to ask, how far has the matter on your side been done?"

Seeing Lei Dong ask this question, Princess Minyi suddenly burst into confidence on her face.

"Don't worry, the things we have done will go smoother than expected!"

"Oh... can you tell me in detail?" Lei Dong asked in an instant.

"Okay... there is no problem." After throwing this sentence, Princess Minyi introduced it to Lei Dong in detail.

It turned out that in order to quickly occupy the clothing market in Dali Country, Lei Dong also arranged two tasks for Princess Minyi and the others.

The first task is to take advantage of the curiosity of the people in the capital to first throw out the news bit by bit, and then, when the curiosity and expectation of the people in the capital reach its peak, the first batch of new clothing will be launched.

To be honest, Princess Minyi was a little dissatisfied when she first took on this task. She thought it was somewhat unworthy to spend so much energy to build momentum in the early stage. However, as the plan continued to advance, especially when she saw that the people in the capital were inquiring about all the news about the new garment store, she had to deeply admire Lei Dong's foresight.

Perhaps, this first task was personally led by Princess Minyi. When introducing the first task, Princess Minyi gave a very detailed speech, and even some small details were told to Lei Dong.

Compared to the introduction of the first task, Princess Minyi said it too general when introducing the second task.

Seeing this, Lei Dong had to interrupt and ask.

"That...If I remember correctly, this second task is to be led by Mr. Fang, and set up branches in major cities across the country, right?"

Seeing Lei Dong ask this, Princess Minyi nodded in confusion. She didn't understand why Lei Dong asked this question.

After a smile, Lei Dong promptly resolved the doubt in Princess Minyi's heart.

"Since we are setting up our branches in major cities across the country, why do you only introduce the names of the cities that have already set up branches, and not how many branches have been set up in those cities?"

"Ah... If you don't ask, I'll almost forget this!" After patting his forehead awkwardly, Princess Minyi quickly took out a booklet and handed it to Lei Dong, "This is what my grandfather asked me to hand it to you. He said, if you want to know the detailed information of each branch, just hand it over to you."

"Haha... it's still the thoughtful thought of Mr. Fang."

After taking the booklet with a smile, Lei Dong did not stay at Princess Minyi for too long. After chatting for a few more words, he stood up and said goodbye and left.

...

Obviously, Lei Dong attached great importance to the booklet that Mr. Fang asked Princess Minyi to hand it over to him.

As soon as he returned to his own house in the treasury, he immediately opened the booklet and began to look through it intently.

Time passes slowly...

About two quarters of an hour later, Lei Dong let out a long sigh and slowly closed the booklet in his hand.

At the same time, a smile of relief appeared on his face.

In fact, there are two main reasons why Lei Dong left all the matter of setting up peripheral branches to Mr. Fang.

On the one hand, the reason is that from the moment, only Mr. Fang has the ability to do this in a short time.

On the other hand, Lei Dong also wanted to use this to test whether Mr. Fang is worthy of his long-term cooperation.

If Mr. Fang was short-sighted or too petty in this test, Lei Dong would definitely not work with him for a long time.

Fortunately, this situation did not happen.

Through the search just now, Lei Dong has learned from this booklet that Mr. Fang handled it very reasonably, and could not find any problems.

After putting away the booklet in his hand, Lei Dong thought that no one would come to him again today. However, he had just asked Wei Zai a few questions about alchemy, and someone came over again.

In addition to Princess Minyu, the one who came to look for Lei Dong this time was also her grandfather, Che Ming, the president of Tongda Chamber of Commerce.

Considering that during this period, all he met were big people with high cultivation. Generally speaking, Lei Dong would wrap his dantian with purple light when he went out. In this way, he would not have to worry about being discovered by those old guys with high cultivation.
