Didn't you go to Teyvat to earn money to support me?

So now she's wearing her school uniform jacket tied around her waist, and the fullness that the shirt can't contain makes her look like a JK (high school girl) stunner. To differentiate her from Ayaka Kamisato's gentle style, Shen Liang paired her with orange and white striped knee-high socks, making her look like a small volcano about to burst with energy!

The two beautiful JK girls attracted the attention of many girls, and of course, some boys as well. However, the men were too shy to get together with the girls and ask them questions, so they could only watch the radiant girls from afar.

Shen Liang felt a sense of satisfaction.

—Look, this is the clothing style I personally adjusted! This is the beautiful girl I personally styled! Youthful? Energetic? Alluring? Cute? I painstakingly changed each and every piece of clothing!

Enjoy my greatness!

Then he immediately realized that this sense of satisfaction must be due to the passive skill [Flowers, Birds, Wind, and Moon] that Lady Kamisato had given him! He subconsciously became obsessed with admiring the beautiful girl!

Then, belatedly, he realized that the corner he was in was surrounded by a group of girls.

The young ladies of the shogunate were all quite beautiful, each gentle, kind, well-educated, with fragrant shoulders, flowing hair, and bright eyes. Shen Liang sat up straight, ready to answer the ladies' questions.

"Lord Kaigozen, how do you take care of your hair? Can you tell me?" someone asked.

"This is a confidential matter that our company can only disclose later; it pertains to beauty products that we may launch in the future."

"Lord Kaigozen, what style is your trench coat? May I take it off and take a look? Hmm... what material is it made of?"

"Rococo style, I'll explain in more detail later. This material is artificial leather, which is a material that is artificially made to resemble leather."

"Wow! How amazing! Lord Kaigozen, may I take a look at your belt?"

"Excuse me, but I'm afraid... Hey, please don't do anything! Hey!"

"The shoes are very well made, this..."

"...Please, at least don't take off my shoes."

Lady Umi Gozen is tired.

Yoomiya nudged Ayaka Kamisato in the waist, and the latter turned around in surprise.

"Look at Ryoko-san."

Ayaka Kamisato glanced around and saw Shen Liang surrounded by a sea of ​​girls laughing and joking. He sat on the shelf, staring at the ceiling with a look of utter despair. A delicate foot peeked out from between the crowd, his socks nowhere to be seen.

Ayaka Kamisato burst out laughing.

"What's going on with these ladies? Ayaka, could you remind them?" Yoomiya said anxiously. "I have a feeling that Ryoko's innocence is in jeopardy."

"Let him get a good beating too, and experience how he usually bullies me." Ayaka Kamisato let out a cute little snort from her nose.

"Huh? How did Ryoko bully you? Tell me, and I'll give you some advice! Ryoko is all bark and no bite, he wouldn't dare hit a girl. You should just fight him, that'll definitely let you vent your anger!"

"You've fought her?" Princess Egret glanced at Queen Summer Festival.

Yomiya scratched his head. "But Ryoko-nii really has a lot of admirers. I wonder how many of these young ladies will be snatched away by him in the future... Well, Ayaka, are you really not bothered?"

"I... I don't care what you say," Ayaka Kamisato quickly turned her head away.

Yomiya shrugged: "Maybe I saw it wrong. I remember last time when he gave us a ride, you had your arm around his waist and your eyes were practically squinting from laughing... Only Ryoko-nii was focused on driving and didn't see it. Hmm, I'll go tell him right now that you have absolutely no feelings for him, and that he should show you some respect! Seriously, it's ridiculous that you made us, Ayaka, massage your legs and shoulders, you really don't respect the magistrate!"

"Night Palace!"

--------

But the men seemed consistently uninterested.

Although Shen Liang's opening remarks were very successful, it was mainly the girls who were greatly interested in the clothes in the exhibition hall. Most of the men were whispering to each other in twos and threes, and at most a few picked up a piece of clothing to take a quick look.

Unlike the enthusiastic girls, most of them had already gone to the changing room to experience it firsthand, thanks to the introductions from Ayaka Kamisato and Yomiya.

The men's eyes probably showed some disappointment.

Many of them may have thought that Shen Liang's project was some earth-shattering, awe-inspiring project, but clothing... it's not that the clothing project that would revolutionize Teyvat wasn't big enough, but, how should I put it...

The essential differences stemming from the differences between men and women.

Shen Liang frowned. Although he had considered the possibility of this happening, the fact that it actually occurred still made him a little worried.

It's not just men who aren't interested; even many women who are interested don't really like modern style clothing, and some are quite resistant to it. Take, for example, the velvet stockings that Ayaka Kamisato wore. Although they were the most eye-catching item, they also received a lot of criticism. Many people felt that as pants, they weren't dignified or warm enough, and would be too hot in summer; they preferred the sexiness and smoothness of bare legs.

Shen Liang didn't intend to explain the allure of stockings to them, since such an aesthetic appreciation takes time to cultivate.

However, the response has been quite good. He had even considered the possibility that the project seminar would fail, since it was a project he came up with on a whim.

Chapter 235 Are you drooling?

The seminar had been going on for over an hour, with two pretty girls serving as clothing models, and others also boldly trying on the clothes.

Suddenly, the exhibition hall was filled with beautiful young women dressed in various trench coats, hot pants, skirts, and knee-high socks. However, there were still a few people who only admired the clothes and didn't touch them, seemingly still harboring some reservations about this very different style of clothing.

The men, in particular, had already mostly left quietly by this time.

—But it's already very good!

—As long as it's beautiful enough, eye-catching enough, and advanced fabric technology is enough to make people smell business opportunities, then at least the female group, which constitutes the main force of clothing purchases, is still quite willing to abandon traditional styles and try new things.

As for men, they are never the main consumers of clothing products in any world.

Instead of this, we should consider bringing console games to Teyvat in the future; that would be a more accurate way to target the pain points of both men and women.

Kujo Sara was one of the few women present who had few friends and came to the seminar alone. Having served in the military for many years, she possessed a stern and aloof demeanor, and almost no one wanted to be near her.

Moreover, as a woman, she is quite tall and slender, standing over 1.7 meters tall. Wearing high-heeled wooden clogs, she almost stands out from the crowd. Girls are not willing to stand next to her; getting close to such a beautiful woman makes them feel inferior.

She was holding a pair of light blue hot pants that were just past her hips, and frowning as she examined them.

"What's wrong?" Shen Liang went over and asked.

"If Sara is not mistaken, these are trousers?" Kujo Sara commented doubtfully. "These trousers are so short, they should be undergarments? But they are so tight and stiff, wouldn't it be uncomfortable to wear them underneath?"

"When did our General Saro become interested in clothes?" Shen Liang joked. "Of course, these aren't for wearing underneath. The kind of underwear you wear underneath is on another booth. If you're interested, you can take them home and try them on. These are hot pants, or 'denim shorts,' which are worn as outerwear."

"Hot pants? Does the 'hot' mean 'hot' or 'revealing'?" Kujo Sara asked.

"Smart!"

Kujo Sara smiled calmly, “However, it’s too revealing, at least for Sara. Such clothing offers no coverage, almost exposing the entire thigh, which is not modest enough. Perhaps more open countries like Liyue, Mondstadt, and Fontaine would be happy with it, but in Inazuma, it doesn’t suit the Shogun’s aesthetic.”

"Really? I noticed that Yae no Miko is also bare-legged."

Kujo Sara was taken aback, but still shook her head. "It's different. Lord Kuji is a fox spirit and is not bound by the constraints of mortal women."

"So, in that case, aren't you a celestial dog too?"

Kujo Sara was speechless for a moment, and just as she was about to retort, she heard Shen Liang speak up again leisurely: "As for opening up, I'm not saying this to be mean, but General Sara, don't you also deeply resent the closed-door policy and feudal conservatism of this land? If it's something that can break through the blockade, even a pair of pants, you don't seem to have any reason to object."

The Tengu girl… or rather, the Tengu mature woman stared at Shen Liang for a while, then fell into deep thought. After a long time, she nodded, “You’re right, my thinking has been trapped.”

"I love that you often examine yourself and are never stubborn!" Shen Liang snapped his fingers.

"Is that so?" Kujo Sara suddenly took a step forward, looked down at him, and said with a half-smile, "I heard that our Kaigozen-sama is going to join the Fubuki Corps and become an admiral. Doesn't the Maritime Corps know that it is my formidable enemy?"

"Does a martial artist like General Saro care about having strong opponents in a competition?" Shen Liang took a step back and then realized that he was leaning against a corner of the wall.

"Lord Kaigozen, you misunderstand. Sara is a soldier, not a warrior; he only cares about success or failure. So he has no confidence in a killing god like you. You've deprived Sara of at least half of his chances of winning, half of his effort." Kujo Sara looked into his eyes, then smiled. "Just kidding, don't be nervous. By the way, would you like to see what I look like in your world's clothes?"

Her slender fingertips lifted the denim shorts, and her usually stern and calm face now showed a hint of mischief as she looked at Shen Liang. "Maybe I should try something more open and new."

[A suitable candidate for the Stigmata has been detected]

Name: Kujo Sara

[Current progress: 15%]

[Narukami is eternal! But with this arrogant young man from another world pushing his boundaries, perhaps Inazuma's existence will be even more eternal than the Shogun hopes?]

Shen Liang watched Kujo Sara's retreating figure as she approached the changing room. The tengu-like older sister had a slender and alluring figure, towering over him by more than twenty centimeters. However, strictly speaking, Kujo Sara was only in her early twenties, still considered a young woman.

He suppressed his slightly agitated heart.

—She's really beautiful. This kind of girl, who isn't a demure young lady but rather has a mature and alluring charm, is truly captivating. However, she's too intimidating to him.

—If, as that fox said, the power I build becomes a harem… then I’ll definitely have to lure Kujo Sara in. Then, on my left will be the infamous, aloof princess of Inazuma, and on my right will be a strong, mature, and powerful woman who’s practically too big to handle with one hand… Hmm, all the men on Narukami Island will probably want to kill me! That would be so awesome!

However, he calmed down quickly.

—Compared to the Kamisato family, who are practically begging to curry favor with him, Kujo Sara is definitely much harder to win over. After all, this girl's ambition is probably even greater than Kamisato Ayaka's. I'd better just be honest and quickly defeat her to win the championship and head to Liyue.

—I'm already tired of staying in Inazuma!

And so it went, until two hours had passed.

It's getting late; those who were meant to leave have left, and those who were meant to stay have stayed.

The number of people in the exhibition hall has decreased by more than half, but the remaining people are still bustling about, with a rough count of about twenty.

Shen Liang clapped his hands, and the exhibition hall quieted down. Everyone looked at the little boy with black hair and red eyes who had climbed back onto the shelf and was now taller than everyone else.

"So, what do you all think about establishing a clothing company spanning seven countries, specializing in fantasy-style clothing?"

“I think it’s absolutely possible,” one girl immediately declared, seemingly eager to seize the opportunity to impress His Highness the Regent. “A revolutionary costume design! Mr. Shen’s idea is simply genius!”

"No need for boasting, how about some constructive suggestions?"

“I think it’s very promising.” Kujo Sara pondered for a moment before speaking first. “A subversive design style will definitely be met with resistance from many people. So Mr. Shen, it’s the right choice for you to express your opinion first among the wealthy and young people, even though some of us may not be able to accept it. But think about it, even if only one percent of Inazuma is willing to accept it, that’s still a huge number. And if we look at the Seven Kingdoms, that number is even bigger. The prospects are broad.”

Hiiragi Senri chimed in, “General Sara is right, and as time goes on, more and more people will be willing to accept this style, after all, aesthetics can be popularized. Moreover, unlike other clothing styles, Mr. Shen’s style comes from another world and is extremely difficult to imitate, and its production process is completely impossible to imitate... This is a technological gap, and we don’t have to worry about losing market share at all.”

“Yes, we don’t need to worry about replicas competing for the market; that’s our biggest advantage. And the exquisite craftsmanship that is beautiful and far ahead of its time is very tempting,” Ayaka Kamisato added. “Right now, it’s just that Lady Kaigo-chan has brought over clothing from one store. If we can get more types and styles of clothing in the future, the profit margin will be even greater. Especially the craftsmanship of things like stockings. After all, our silk is extremely expensive, and this kind of fabric that can replace silk is very profitable.”
