Chapter 75 Incredible Clothes

When the sun slanted into the sky, a convoy of seven carriages slowly stopped outside the gate of Lalu City.

Earl Nassaps, the lord of Lalu City who had been waiting at the city gate for a long time, immediately went up to greet him, and behind him were all the nobles with status and status in Laru City.

It's just that these big figures who are usually high in the city of Lalu, in front of this train team today, all of them bowed their proud bodies, and there was even a trace of humility in the expressions on their faces.

There is only one reason for them to do this, and that is that the family emblems on the seven carriages in this convoy symbolize the Windsor family, the largest family in the southern province of the Candela Empire.

And the person who came to Lalu City this time was the current patriarch of the Windsor family, and also the subordinates sent by the unlucky governor, the Duke of Windsor, to inspect Lalu City.

Although the status of these subordinates may not be as high as most of the people present, but because they represent the will of the Duke of Windsor, they have to show enough respect and awe.

The first carriage stopped in front of Earl Nassaps, the door opened, and a middle-aged man about forty years old stepped out.

After seeing him, Earl Nassaps couldn't help being stunned for a moment.

This middle-aged man is Emmadu, the governor of the Governor's Mansion. Although his position is not high, he is a close friend of the Duke of Windsor and is extremely trusted by the Duke of Windsor.

But in his capacity, he is not suitable to serve as a special envoy for inspection.

Manager Emmatou obviously saw the doubts in Earl Nassaps's heart, walked over, and whispered in his ear: "My lord, the Duchess is also here this time. Please make good arrangements."

"Huh?" Earl Nassaps was taken aback for a moment.

Didn't it be agreed that the one sent here was just an ordinary inspection delegation? Why even the honorable duchess is here?

I was wondering in my heart. The door of the third carriage opened, and a young woman who looked like a maid jumped out from inside, and then a lady stepped down slowly and gracefully from above.

As the lord of Lalu City, the third largest city in the southern province, Earl Nassaps has seen the Duchess of Windsor in person at many banquets at the Governor's Palace, and of course he recognized her immediately.

He didn't have time to think about it, so he quickly walked up, saluted the Duchess of Windsor solemnly, and said with a smile: "Duchess, it's an honor for us in Lalu City that you can come here."

Even though the rest of the nobles in Laru City didn’t know the Duchess of Windsor, but seeing Earl Nasamps’ actions and hearing what he said, of course they reacted, and they immediately came over and greeted the Duke of Windsor. Madam saluted.

The Duchess of Windsor waved her hand casually: "Okay, I just came out to relax, you don't have to pay too much attention to me, just go about your own business."

Although she said so. But as the Duchess, since she has already arrived here. How could Earl Nasamps and the others really not care?

Therefore, all the procedures for welcoming the inspection team originally set by Earl Nassaps were no longer important, and the focus immediately shifted to how to greet and entertain the Duchess of Windsor.

The rush of time made Lalu City a little bit flustered up and down.

Fortunately, the Duchess of Windsor was very accommodating, and directly let Earl Nassaps avoid those cumbersome etiquettes, and the group was able to enter Lalu City smoothly.

"Ma'am, if you want to relax, I strongly recommend the Alps 30 kilometers east of the city. It is late spring, and all kinds of flowers and plants are blooming on the mountain. The temperature is cool, the air is fresh, and there is a large open area at the foot of the mountain. There is a lawn where you can ride horses to your heart's content. Next to it is a private estate that I have arranged a long time ago. After you go..."

The Earl of Nassaps and the Duchess of Windsor rode in the same carriage, and while driving to the City Lord's Mansion, they tried their best to recommend attractions near Lalu City to her.

The Duchess of Windsor listened casually, only occasionally nodding her head to express her agreement.

This performance made Earl Nassaps a little uneasy.

It was strange enough that the Duchess of Windsor came here suddenly, why did she still show such an attitude?

Did she really just come here to relax?

Earl Nassaps did not believe it.

But the Duchess of Windsor didn't speak much along the way, which made him feel a little helpless.

When the carriage drove through several streets and was about to turn in the direction of the City Lord's Mansion, the Duchess of Windsor, who had been silent all this time, suddenly let out a light sigh and pointed out the window of the carriage.

"What is this doing?"

Earl Nassapus looked in the direction she pointed, and saw that the street on the left was crowded with people, extremely noisy and extremely noisy.

"Oh, this is the commercial street in this city. So many days today... Maybe the commercial street is doing something? This is also a common thing. After all, this commercial street is the most prosperous place nearby. People in the surrounding towns Most of them will come here…”

"No." The Duchess of Windsor shook her head and interrupted Earl Nassaps. "If it's just an ordinary event, it's impossible to attract so many people. And you see, these people who come out are holding the same thing in their hands. It seems that they all bought it in a store."

Earl Nassapus was stunned, looked intently, and found that among the people squeezed out of the crowded crowd, each of them was holding a few pieces of clothing that looked very bright in color, obviously they should all come from the same family. clothing store.

"Go and ask what's going on." The Duchess of Windsor said suddenly.

Earl Nassaps was lamenting that the Duchess of Windsor's observation ability is so good, when he heard this sentence, he was taken aback again.

Why is the duchess so curious about such things? It's really strange.

But of course he would not go against the wishes of the Duchess of Windsor, find two guards of the City Lord's Mansion, and ask them to ask clearly.

A few minutes later, a guard came back to report.

"My lord, it is said that a clothing store in the shopping street is holding some promotional activities. The minimum price of each finished garment is only 50 silver coins. They started promoting it three days ago because it was cheap. So when it was officially sold today .It has attracted so many people to buy.”

"Only fifty silver coins for a piece of finished clothing?" Earl Nassaps and Duchess of Windsor looked at each other. They could see the surprise in each other's eyes.

Although the usual clothes of the two are obviously not of the same grade as these ordinary civilians, but this does not mean that they are completely ignorant of the price of civilian clothes.

Based on the general market price in the southern provinces, even a piece of finished clothing made of ordinary coarse cloth can cost more than two gold coins at the minimum.

Many commoners simply cannot afford such a price, so most commoners simply weave their own cloth and make clothes without spending money to buy them.

Over time, the vast majority of tailor shops simply do not make clothes for ordinary civilians, but only tailor-made for wealthy noble businessmen. The price is naturally higher.

Now this shop actually sells them at a price of 50 silver coins each, aren't you afraid of losing money?

"Go and buy some for me to see." The Duchess of Windsor ordered.

Earl Nassups winked at the guards, who immediately squeezed inside.

"Earl Nasamps, it's really unexpected that you have such an interesting Chamber of Commerce in Lalu City." The Duchess of Windsor suddenly smiled at Earl Nasamps.

Seeing the smile on the Duchess of Windsor's face, Earl Nassaps's heart tightened, and he could only laugh along with him: "These businessmen always come up with some weird ideas."

"Really?" The Duchess of Windsor suddenly turned her head to look west, with a complicated expression, and she didn't know what she was thinking.

Glancing at the look on her face, Earl Nassaps did not speak up knowingly.

There was silence in the carriage for a while. The two guards returned at the same time, holding a large pile of clothes in their hands.

The Duchess of Windsor and the Earl of Nassaps just glanced at the clothes. They snorted at the same time.

Just looking at these clothes, you can find that the workmanship is quite good, and the material is not the most inferior linen, but the cotton cloth that many commoners prefer. In addition, the dyeing is quite uniform, and it doesn't look like that kind of crudely made clothes. thing.

The two of them have been to a few pieces of clothing since the guards were injured. They took a touch of the clothes in their hands, and felt that the fabric of the clothes in their hands felt quite good, which was completely different from the fabric of the homemade clothes worn by most civilians.

In order to prove his idea, Earl Nassaps even reached out and touched the clothes under the armor of the guard, and confirmed that the fabric of the clothes in his hands was even better than the clothes on the guard.

You must know that the salaries of these guards under him are not low, and the clothes they wear are much better than those worn by most civilians.

And the minimum price of such a piece of clothing is only 50 silver coins, which is too unbelievable.

The Duchess of Windsor on the other side has a completely different focus from Earl Nassaps.

She just touched it, and immediately confirmed that the fabric of these clothes was finely woven, and it was definitely not of ordinary quality.

And after carefully observing the details of some clothes, you will find that the sewing of these clothes is also fine, and every pinhole and thread are almost exactly the same, which looks extremely neat.

Among other things, just relying on such needlework skills alone is enough to become a high-end tailor in any city in the southern province, and the clothes he sew are absolutely expensive.

After a pause, the Duchess of Windsor fully unfolded the clothes in her hands with both hands. She only glanced at it, and couldn't help but let out another cry of surprise.

This dress is a one-piece dress, not only the fabric is finely crafted, but even the style looks extremely exquisite.

The overall design is very simple at first glance, but if you look closely, you will find a touch of luxury in this dress from various details.

Purely from the design point of view, it may not be as good as the long dress in hand, which was designed by the top costume master of the Candela Empire, and the price is as high as 800 gold coins, but it is not far behind.

The Duchess of Windsor can be sure that with such an excellent design, if it is made of more expensive fabrics, as long as it is combined with such fine workmanship, it can definitely be sold at a high price of no less than 500 gold coins in any city in the empire.

But now...

"How much is this dress?" The Duchess of Windsor asked the two guards.

The two guards scratched their heads: "We didn't ask clearly, we just threw them ten gold coins, and they asked us to pick ten at random..."

The Duchess of Windsor and the Earl of Nassaps were taken aback: "Ten gold coins? Ten pieces?"

The two looked at each other, and both could see the complete disbelief in the other's eyes.

The average selling price of such a good piece of clothing is only one gold coin?

Let other tailor shops live! (To be continued..)
