Although she was on winter vacation, Xia Yutong did not allow herself to be free.
Teacher Jiang sent a lot of test papers to both her and Wu Qize. Except for a few days during the New Year, the average number was almost one per day.
Xia Yutong didn't dare to relax in the basic skills of dance. It was actually relatively late to start learning dance at this age, so if he wanted to develop a solid foundation in basic skills, he could only rely on his own diligence.
There is also mathematics in the third grade of junior high school. Xia Yutong has not had time to start learning it. She also plans to conquer it during the winter vacation. This way, she will be more confident in the Mathematical Olympiad competition.
Coupled with other winter vacation homework, Xia Yutong was extremely busy.
Mother Xia couldn't bear to see her daughter taking a vacation and turning herself into a spinning top, so she finally stopped her daughter's studies three days before the Spring Festival.
Xia Yutong was actually too busy, so he followed Xia's mother's request to relax for a few days.
So I went with Xia's mother that day to help buy new year's goods.
The Chinese New Year at this time is still very full of flavor. The streets are crowded with people. There are people selling Spring Festival couplets with blessing characters, people selling all kinds of fireworks and firecrackers, and people selling all kinds of roasted seeds and nuts. The cries are mixed with the sounds of children. Their laughter formed a very contagious New Year animation.
Xia Yutong followed Mama Xia as a little follower, taking the opportunity to satisfy her cravings. She had a bunch of candied haws in her left hand and a bag of fried melon seeds in her right hand, eating them with great pleasure.
Xia's mother looked at her daughter funny, she looked like a twelve-year-old girl.
While walking and shopping, the two of them carried a lot of things in their hands.
Fortunately, the main things I bought today were some candies, peanuts, melon seeds and the like for entertaining guests during the Spring Festival, and they were not heavy at all.
When they were all done, Xia's mother dragged Xia Yutong into a clothing store on the street, and bought an off-white sweater for her daughter, which matched the bright red cotton coat that Xia's father brought back from a business trip to the provincial capital. , it will definitely be particularly festive and dazzling to wear during the New Year.
Then he gave Xia Yutong a pair of white sneakers with velvet lining and cute cartoon patterns on them, which were warm and beautiful on the feet.
Xia Yutong is not obsessed with wearing new clothes in the New Year now. After all, in her previous life, she had new clothes almost all year round. Who doesn’t love a beautiful dress?
In the end, Xia's mother actually took her daughter to the tailor shop, and Xia Yutong suddenly remembered that she still had a "business" here.
Xia's mother's behavior was not accidental. When she came to pick up the custom-made new clothes, Master Zhang from the tailor shop specially told her to bring her daughter with her when she was free.
But what she didn't know was that Xia's mother was free, but Xia Yutong was not, so she postponed it until today.
As soon as he entered the door, Master Zhang complained: "You girl, you said you wanted to get a share from me, but as soon as the picture was thrown away, you have never been seen again!"
There is a reason why Master Zhang complains like this. When customers come to her store, many of them are attracted by Xia Yutong's modified designs, but the three styles are too few. If everyone makes these styles, they are not allowed to go out on the street. The same model can be found, so Master Zhang did not dare to agree to sell too many models, and even increased the labor cost of these models by five yuan. However, many people still begged Master Zhang to make them, saying that it was not necessary at all. I don't mind matching clothes, as long as they look good.
Therefore, Master Zhang looked forward to it day and night, hoping that Xia Yutong would come and add two more styles, and even specifically told the little girl's mother, but still no one came.
During this period, she had actually made a similar attempt, but no matter how she modified it, she always felt that there was something wrong with it. The customers' eyes were really sharp, and they always fell in love with Xia Yutong's modified style every time.
There was no other way, so Master Zhang had no choice but to continue waiting patiently.
Don't you have to complain a few times when you see someone?
Xia Yutong didn't dare to tell Master Zhang. She was too busy and had forgotten about the matter.
Xia's mother did remember it, but she saw that her daughter was so busy and it was too late to feel distressed. Why would she put an extra burden on her daughter.
So it's been delayed and delayed, hasn't it been delayed until now?
Master Zhang complained for a few words, and then immediately took out his accounting book and gave it to Xia Yutong: "In the past two months, a total of thirty-six clothes of three styles have been ordered. This is still a situation where I am not allowed to order more. , this little girl is small, but she is really capable! Many customers fall in love with these styles at a glance and are unwilling to change them no matter what!"
With that said, he took out 72 yuan from the drawer and handed it to Xia Yutong.
After taking over, Xia Yutong took out two pieces worth ten yuan and pushed them back: "As promised at the beginning, you have waived the crafting fee for my mother's piece, and I won't take any share of it."
Master Zhang laughed. The little girl was quite trustworthy, but the twenty yuan was indeed what she really wanted to give.
"Little girl, please keep this. Because of your pictures, my business has indeed improved a lot in the past two months. If you feel embarrassed, just provide me with a few more pictures in the future." Then he stuffed the money back. In Xia Yutong's hands.
Xia Yutong looked at the money in his hand and didn't push it back. Since he was giving it sincerely, it didn't look good to give it away.
As Master Zhang said, it is indeed better to draw more pictures. Master Zhang not only retained customers but also opened up a reputation, and of course he also made money. Xia Yutong, on the other hand, just used his hands and his brain. After drawing the pictures, he had nothing to do with her. It’s over, just wait to collect the money, everyone will benefit from each other!
Seeing Master Zhang's sincerity, Xia Yutong had to show some sincerity: "Master Zhang, do you have a spring collection album? It's best if it's new this year."
It’s faster to make changes based on the original picture, and if you have the latest picture album, you can also understand this year’s fashion trends and ensure that you don’t make big mistakes.
"It's true. I asked someone to bring it back from the provincial capital a few days ago." Master Zhang said as he found two latest albums from the drawer and handed them to Xia Yutong.
Xia Yutong was not in a hurry. He first read through the two albums from beginning to end. If he felt there were some advantages or could be easily modified, he marked them with a pencil and picked out more than ten pictures.
Master Zhang was very happy when he saw it. There are going to be more than ten revised versions!
But she was overjoyed. Xia Yutong crossed out seven or eight more drawings, and finally selected six drawings. After working on them for more than an hour, she finally revised the design drawings.
Xia Yutong was thinking that she really needed more styles of spring clothes for customers to choose from, but she couldn't feed them all at once.
When a customer comes to the store, they can only make two or three sets at most, and those six styles are enough to choose from.
The next time she comes to pick up clothes, she will add a few more new styles. If the customer likes them, she might be able to order two more sets. This is business knowledge. Xia Yutong did not get a master's degree in finance in her previous life. This can still be used. Ziru, but there is no need to explain this to Master Zhang.
At that time, I can only make one more trip by myself and add a few new design drawings. Master Zhang will definitely have no objection, but this will probably have to wait until after the Mathematical Olympiad preliminary round. Anyway, there is still time, so let’s do this for now.
