The faces of all the cloth merchants below the stage turned helpless, as they actually lost to a youngster who suddenly popped up.
They had nothing to say about their loss. The opponent’s design indeed had some flaws, however, they could all be modified. Overall, it was more innovative and daring than theirs.
Even though they lost this time, it was okay, as they had learnt new layout methods and bold skirt designs from the competitor.
They would use these next year, and then, these would become theirs.
“Alright, Mrs. Rebecca, we can decide on some details later,” said Fang Hao.
Rebecca nodded slightly and said, “Okay, the people from the Bone Textile Store should stay back. Others can return for now. Your businesses in the city can continue operating as usual, so there’s no need to worry.”
“Yes, Mrs. Rebecca,” replied the rest of the people, bowing before they left the hall.
Even Tavek, left the hall, waving his hand to signal Fang Hao at the door.
Meaning he would wait at the door.
The hall was left with only Fang Hao, Rebecca, and some female servants.
“How long have been running your fabric store?” asked Rebecca.
“It’s a century-old store, passed down undyingly,” Fang Hao replied softly, his throat felt somewhat uncomfortable.
“Where do you live? I haven’t heard of it before?” Rebecca continued to ask, showing some interest in the young man in front of her.
He didn’t have the courtesy of a businessman and was quite unfamiliar with the rules here.
“I live to the north of Pruell City. It’s my first time visiting Lyss City with Tavek’s cloth merchant,” Fang Hao replied truthfully.
Rebecca nodded, and she continued to say, “I am very satisfied with the clothing design, as for the remaining jewelry and that pair of white stockings, would you need me to contact the jewelry merchant for their fabrication?” Fang Hao’s proposal was a full-package offer, from head to toe.
If the clothing was fixed, what about the others?
Time waits for no one.
“No, I will complete those. All Mrs. Rebecca has to do is provide me with the detailed body data. I will provide the jewelry and stockings as well,” Fang Hao single-handedly took all the tasks upon himself.
This surprised Rebecca even more, she stressed, “Are you sure you can complete all of these on your own?”
“Of course, I won’t joke about it here.”
“Well, then come tomorrow morning. I’ll give you the data then. I hope you won’t disappoint me,” Rebecca solemnly said.
Fang Hao smiled and nodded, watching Rebecca go upstairs.
He left the City Lord’s house.
Tavek was still waiting at the door.
“So? How did it go?” Tavek anxiously asked.
“It’s settled. I’ll come get the measurements tomorrow,” said Fang Hao, walking out and speaking at the same time.
“You really did succeed. My goodness.”
Both of them got into the carriage and headed to their accomodations.
On the way, Tavek kept mumbling about some details in the design.
The next day, in the morning.
After lunch, Fang Hao went to the City Lord’s house again.
After he stated his purpose, a maid led him straight up to the second floor.
The maid knocked lightly on the door and said, “Mrs, Mr Fang Hao is here.”
“Let him in.”
“Sir, please.” The maid opened the door, indicating for Fang Hao to step in.
Walking into the room, the golden rays of wheat filled the room through the window.
In the middle of the room, on a grayish-blue sofa, lay a completely naked Rebecca. A blue blanket concealed the significant parts of her body.
By the side of the sofa, there was a partially completed oil painting with paint that hadn’t dried yet.
Seeing Fang Hao’s stunned look, Rebecca’s eyebrows tightened instantly.
“Ahem! Mrs. Rebecca, such habits could easily lead to wrinkles. You have to ensure regular rest if you want to maintain the youthfulness of your skin,” said Fang Hao as he coughed and walked into the room.
Rebecca’s eyebrows relaxed again. She stretched lazily on the sofa.
