Why do they take Tokyo's boyfriend rental seriously?

Chapter 112 Pink-haired Little One

During the conversation, with the joint efforts of several female shop assistants, one beautifully packaged box after another was brought into the store.

“Did the store manager make it himself?”

Seeing this, Sugawara Ryuichi, who was completely caught off guard, became very curious.

Although I learned roughly through the Internet and explanations from netizens that Fudori is a luxury brand in the kimono field.

But Fengniao has too few finished garments, and because its customer base is very upper-class, few buyers post photos online.

Maybe someone was being Versailles and deliberately showed off their kimono, but that is too one-sided and not enough to represent the Fengdori family.

Hearing his mumbling, Fuuchoin Renka didn't say anything, but just watched the shop assistants unpack the kimonos, take them out, and hang them on a large hanger.

"it's beautiful."

As everyone was busy, Ryuichi Sugawara couldn't help but sigh when he saw the scene after the clothes were hung up.

This has nothing to do with professionalism, nor is it fake praise or providing emotional value. This is simply my feeling as a spectator.

This kimono is so beautiful. It is white as the cover, cherry blossoms as the color, and birds as the embellishments. The complex lining, straight lines of cutting, and exquisite details visible to the naked eye make it as beautiful as a painting.

Even though he didn't understand fashion design, he could tell that this outfit must have taken the maker a lot of effort, sweat, and time to create.

Until this moment, Sugawara Ryuichi finally understood why the Fudori family was a luxury in the kimono world.

In today's era of assembly line manufacturing, if clothes that are full of traditional craftsmanship, handmade, and of extremely high quality are not considered luxury goods, then what is a luxury?

[Heartbeat value +1]

Feng Niaoyuan Renhua glanced at his astonished reaction and felt extremely proud, but she had no intention of showing off. She just smiled and tied her hair without saying a word.

For her, it is the highest compliment that her works can make people exclaim in amazement and be deeply attracted to the clothes at first sight.

"How long has this suit been in the making?"

After admiring it for a while, Sugawara Ryuichi looked at the woman next to him again, feeling very curious.

"367 days."

"To the exact number of days?"

“Because this is my representative work and it is also a must-have exhibition piece for opening a shop.”

"awesome."

After learning about the effort that went into this kimono, Sugawara Ryuichi looked at it again with a bit more respect.

It took more than a year just to make one set of clothes.

The concentration and seriousness in doing something to perfection deserves respect.

"Manager, please take a look."

After finishing putting on the kimono on the hanger, the deputy manager looked at the kimono so close to him, feeling extremely proud and respectful, and turned around to ask for instructions.

This is why they adore the store manager, not only because of her stunning beauty, touching voice, dignified and noble temperament, and Yamato Nadeshiko style, but also because of her superb tailoring skills and dedicated work attitude.

After hearing this request, Feng Niaoyuan Renhua, although she had been looking, still walked forward.

"It's perfectly worn. Put it on the stand and go get another one."

She slowly walked around the women's furisode, checking every detail, and nodded after confirming that everything was correct.

"There's another set?"

When she came back, Sugawara Ryuichi became curious.

"We must have both women's and men's styles so that customers can see the manager's level of skill."

Feng Niaoyuan Lianhua nodded slightly and explained.

Kimonos are divided into men's and women's styles, and there are big differences between them.

The easiest way to distinguish them is that the men's models are simpler in design, with dark colors and simple patterns, while the women's models are brighter in color and have rich patterns, often with flowers and birds.

After a while, the store clerks ran to the cart outside the store and brought in box after box.

Just like before, I unpacked it, brought the hanger and started putting it on.

"So handsome?"

The first time he saw the men's kimono, Ryuichi Sugawara was attracted.

The design of this kimono is very simple, with pure black as the base and pure white as the lining. There are no unnecessary patterns, but the lines are very smooth, like a night curtain.

It is a design that cannot be simpler, but the overall feeling is handsome and solemn.

Compared to the visible details and exquisiteness of women's kimonos, the simple and direct design of men's kimonos makes it easier to see the level of a tailor.

"Thank you for the compliment."

Feng Niaoyuan Renhua was not surprised to hear him say this, but she still smiled happily.

"How much is this kimono?"

Sugawara Ryu was very excited at the first sight and felt eager to try it.

Because of his talent in styling design, he has a lot of experience in clothing matching.

If you have a kimono like this, you can use it to flirt with girls.

"It is priceless. It is a non-saleable item that will never be sold to anyone in your lifetime."

"So, it will hang in the display window forever?"

"Ten years later, they will be replaced and treasured by the Fuuchoin family, hung in a specific room at home for display, serving as representations of different periods of time to teach their children... For example, they can tell their children, 'This is a work I created when I was 20, you need to work hard,'" he said.

Perhaps this set of clothes will never be worn by anyone, but Fuuchoin Renka did not feel any pity or regret.

Because its meaning and function are more important than being worn by a person.

"I see."

Through these words, Sugawara Ryuichi got a glimpse of the style of the Futouin family.

It was a very traditional practice, and this was probably why a craft could be passed down for so many years, showcasing the honor and excellence of the predecessors to future generations, enhancing family cohesion and pride. If he guessed correctly, the Fuujou family, even if not descendants of the nobility, was still a well-known and prestigious family.

"How much would you charge for making a kimono like this?"

Unable to obtain this kimono, Sugawara Ryuichi started to think of other things.

With Renka Fuuchoin's craftsmanship, it is obviously not difficult to make a kimono of this level again.

Although he has no money now, it doesn't mean he will have no money in the future. This mentality is like seeing a luxury car you like and wanting to ask the price.

"secret."

Fuuchoin Renka noticed that he was interested in her clothes and looked at him sideways.

"secret?"

Sugawara Ryuichi did not back down.

"Because my own handmade works have been booked out for three years, the time it takes to be booked after the opening today is at least forty years. Only in rare cases will I be allowed to jump the queue."

Finding that he really liked her, Feng Niaoyuan Renhua nodded slightly and explained.

"Booked forty years in advance?"

Hearing this, Sugawara Ryuichi was shocked.

It was booked for half a lifetime on the opening day, which is undoubtedly a trick that will make you successful.

This reservation was outrageous, wasn't it? He had heard of reservations being made a month in advance, or even a year in advance.

40 years is half of a person’s life. Is it necessary just for a set of clothes?

“Many customers don’t customize it for themselves, but for their descendants, especially for coming-of-age ceremonies.”

"So that's how it is... What do you mean by rare cases?"

When Sugawara Ryuichi learned about everyone's actions, he nodded as if he understood something and then asked.

"For example, a big shot suddenly rises and needs a good kimono."

In response to the customer's inquiry, Fengniaoyuan Renhua did not hide anything from him.

"Ok."

After realizing the conditions for queue-jumping, Sugawara Ryuichi gave up. He had no interest in becoming an official.

"Actually, there is a rare case. Do you want to try it, little brother?"

Finding that he had given up, Fengniaoyuan Renhua looked at him with a smile and changed the subject.

"what?"

When Sugawara Ryu heard her say that, he immediately became interested.

"After the children of the Kaedori family find a marriage partner and get engaged, they will traditionally have a set of kimonos tailored to match them."

Fengniaoyuan Renhua's peach blossom eyes are so beautiful. I don't know if she is smiling, but her voice is melodious and beautiful, which is very touching.

"..."

Meeting her beautiful eyes, Sugawara Ryuichi's heart rate continued to accelerate, even soaring to over 130, but he did not respond to this question.

Because he had already realized that the other party was teasing him.

If Xiao Chuannan were faced with this situation, he would probably have been completely infatuated and fallen in love.

I have to say, this woman is really charming.

The beautiful young lady from a prominent family is young, promising, versatile, tall and graceful, with outstanding temperament. Even the emphasis in her speech is extremely charming, and she is also very good at teasing men's psychology.

Even though he had rich experience in love in his previous life, this was the first time he met a woman of such a high level. He had no corresponding experience at all and was a little overwhelmed.

Finding that he was overwhelmed, he dared not answer the question. Feng Toriin Renka covered her mouth and smiled, and did not tease him anymore. After all, she was not sure about the relationship between Sugawara Ryuichi and Qianhua.

It would be fine if they were boyfriend and girlfriend, as it would help Qianhua see clearly that this man could not resist temptation at all.

But if they have feelings for each other, it would be bad if I tease him into falling in love with someone else.

After a while, Fuuchoin Renka inspected the men's kimono again, and after confirming that it was correct, she asked the clerk to put it behind the display window.

By displaying two representative works, all preparations for opening the store are complete.

Soon, it was 8 o'clock and the street outside the store was becoming very lively.

During this period, they did not chat anymore. After Fengjian, the bodyguard and driver, moved the clothes in, he drove the car away and moved it to another place to make room.

Although the store has not yet opened, customers have already started coming to congratulate with wreaths.

Ryuichi Sugawara, who was the walking sign, stayed in the store even though it was not business hours yet, just watching the deputy store manager go out to receive customers.

The wreath culture of Japanese people is very special. They send wreaths for both happy and funeral events, especially for business openings. Everyone will send some more delicate wreaths and mark the name of the giver and the company name.

Because he has adapted to local customs for many years, Sugawara Ryuichi has seen many situations and is not surprised by anything.

But when he saw the wreath, he subconsciously took a few more glances at it.

"Congratulations on the opening of the store, presented by Sato of Jiuye Bank."

Although Ryuichi Sugawara didn't know who the high-ranking officials of Nine Leaves Bank were, he couldn't help but look sideways when he saw the bank sending blessings.

This is what connections are all about. The one who comes up right from the start is this unconventional person.

Not just banks, but also various well-known groups.

As time went by, Ryuichi Sugawara, who was curious about the gift, suddenly saw a familiar name.

"Congratulations on the opening of the store, a gift from Morishita, President of the Miki Group."

Seeing this surname, Sugawara Ryu looked up subconsciously and saw the person who gave the wreath.

She was a graceful, elegant, brightly dressed, and charming young woman, with a little pink-haired kid hiding behind her.
