Time Brocade Store

Chapter 81 The Struggle at the Crossroads

After Zhou Fu came out of Wang Zhouyu's mansion that day, he went straight back to the Institute of Ancient Clothing and told Shen Zhiwen about the problems encountered in Jinhua's shop.Shen Zhiwen was very interested in Jinhua's store, so he and Zhou Fu immediately called the staff of the research institute to have a small meeting to discuss together.

A few days later, Jinhua received a call from Zhou Fu and told her the result of their discussion.

"How is it? What did Mr. Zhou say?" Gao Shiqian and Mo Cha asked her together.

"Mr. Zhou said that after their discussion, Mr. Shen suggested that we introduce a unified size system for modern clothing, and then inspect several Chinese clothing production companies to see if they can carry out large-scale production." Jinhua said.

"What is uniform size?" Gao Shiqian looked puzzled. <, l size to standardize the size of clothes, so that each set of clothes does not need to be tailored according to the size given by the user, which can speed up the production speed. "<, l..." Gao Shiqian still didn't understand, Jinhua quickly explained to him, "It means big, medium, and small. Our clothes all have a size, and people's bodies are roughly divided into several according to height, shortness, fatness, and thinness." It’s much more convenient to do so.” Jin Hua took out some clothes from the closet and gave him the size labels on them.

"I understand," Gao Shiqian nodded, and then frowned, "But in this case, the fit of the clothes will definitely be greatly reduced, and it does not conform to the tradition of my Chinese clothing..."

"Tradition also needs to be improved and adapted. As long as the shape of our clothes is correct, we can make bold attempts in other aspects. This is called advancing with the times, understand?" Jin Hua persuaded.

"Let me think about it," Gao Shiqian stretched out his hand to stop her words, "This matter is a bit sudden, let me think about it carefully..." He opened the door and walked out.

"Sister Jinhua, Brother Gao?" Mo Cha looked at Meng Jinhua with some puzzlement, "Isn't it normal to make clothes in a standard size? Is there any need to think about it? What's wrong with him?"

"His feelings for traditional costumes are beyond our comprehension," Jin Hua said, looking at Gao Shiqian's leaving back, "Give him some time to think about it, this is not an easy task for him... ..."

"I've never seen a person like Brother Gao," Mo Cha sighed, "It always feels like he came from another time and space, with a temperament completely different from modern people, although it is sometimes incomprehensible , but it has a unique charm..."

Jinhua thought to himself, Mo Cha's sense is quite keen, and Gao Shiqian is indeed not a person in modern society, even though he has been here for several months, he can skillfully use many modern tools such as computer, network, mobile phone, etc. But his heart has not changed, he is still a citizen of Ming Dynasty, and his love for traditional costumes is still so fierce.

Gao Shiqian left the house and walked on the street in early winter.He is now used to the strange eyes of passers-by, pointing movements, and taking out his mobile phone to film his behavior at will.Even though he has been here for so long, he is becoming more and more familiar with this world, but in his heart, he is always a "citizen of Ming Dynasty".He stubbornly adheres to the principle of no haircut and no change of clothes, just to remind himself all the time where he came from and who he is.

He helped Meng Jinhua set up the "Time Brocade Shop", and the business became more and more prosperous, allowing more people to know and fall in love with Huafu. It seemed that he was getting closer and closer to his dream, but today What happened was like pouring a basin of cold water on his head, which made him sober all of a sudden.

"Look at him, he is the man in ancient clothes on the Internet. I thought he only dressed like this when he was shooting videos. I didn't expect him to dress like this in normal times. Don't you think it's strange?"

"Yeah, it's really inconvenient to dress like this."

"That's right, this kind of clothes are only worn when taking pictures, how can they be worn every day?"

"After all, it's something from the past era. Do you think he has 'ancient fetishism'? It's quite scary..."

Several men and women walked past Gao Shiqian while discussing. Although their voices were low, Gao Shiqian had practiced kung fu and had excellent hearing ability, so he could hear every sentence accurately.

Yes, no matter how hard he tries, these clothes belong to the past time and space. They are old things sealed in piles of old papers and museums. They are not what people in this era need. He wholeheartedly wants to make those clothes beautiful. The costumes reappeared in brilliance, but is this his dream or obsession?For people in this era, is there still value and significance?

He was thinking all the way, but he didn't notice that he had come to the middle of the intersection, the green light was on, the vehicles on both sides couldn't pass because of his obstruction, and he honked his horn hard, so he stopped in a hurry, watching the heavy traffic and the continuous flow The street, my heart is very at a loss.

"Hey, let's go! Get out of the way!"

"Yeah, didn't you see that this is a green light, and you're still standing in the middle of the road?"

"Is there something wrong with this person? Dressed like this and go out, it can't be because of a bad brain!"

"Yeah, get out of here!"

Several drivers yelled loudly, some were even more irritable, and cursed a lot of ugly words at Gao Shiqian.

Only then did he realize that he was blocking the way of the vehicle, and hurried to the side of the road, watching the vehicle whizzing by in front of him, an inexplicable sense of loss and alienation welled up in his heart.Right now, he seemed to be forced to a crossroads and didn't know where to go.

Because no matter how hard he tried, he did not belong to this world after all.

No matter how much he wants Huaxia Clothing to reappear in this time and space, it may be an empty dream that is difficult to realize.

He was thinking about his mind, wandering all the way from the morning to the dimly lit night, feeling like a homeless wandering soul, with nowhere to put his dreams and nowhere to rest his soul.

He didn't return home until midnight.As soon as he entered the door, he saw Jinhua staring at him angrily: "Why did you come back so late? You didn't answer your calls or text messages. Do you know that they have been waiting for you?"

Gao Shiqian took out his mobile phone and found several call records and text messages on it, and then realized that he hadn't looked at his mobile phone all day.Although he can use this thing, he just uses it as a communication tool and doesn't feel that he needs to look at it often and use it to connect with others when he goes out.He froze for a moment, and said, "I was only thinking about things, and didn't pay attention to my phone..."

"Okay, since I'm thinking about something," Jinhua said while crossing his arms, "Have you thought about it, about the big, medium and small sizes of clothes?"

He was asked so hard that he didn't know how to answer for a moment.
