Chapter 406: A Dream (5)
Chen Shiqing curled her lips into a faint smile and said, "It seems Miss Qiao is determined to get this dress."Qiao Mo smiled without saying anything.
Chen Shiqing laughed and said, "Alright then, I would like to see to what extent Nancheng spoils you."
At that moment, a nearby sales clerk spoke up with an offer, "Is this lady planning to try it on as well?"
"No need, just tell me the price tag directly."
Qiao Mo also remained silent, turned around, and went to the fitting room first to take off the dress.
She knew the dress’s price very well, three hundred and sixty thousand.
It had to be said that, as a newcomer, she was quite daring in her pricing.
After all, most newcomers at the venue rarely priced above one hundred thousand, with a small portion ranging between one hundred thousand to two hundred thousand, and those over three hundred thousand were few and far between.
But Qiao Mo’s thoughts were different from theirs; each gown was her labor of love. Even if the price would make people stop in their tracks, having six gowns, even selling just one, would bring in far more profit than selling many at low prices.
Moreover, she had hired a team to hand-sew each gown according to her specifications, certainly worth the price. Without this, she wouldn’t have been able to rush and complete them in such a short time.
If she had a bit more experience, she would dare to ask for two or three million.
Besides, there was never a lack of wealthy people coming here.
So, she’d rather not sell a single dress than devalue her hard work.
It’s just... looks like someone is going to be the big spender today...
After Qiao Mo changed clothes, she walked out of the fitting room.
By now, quite a few people were gathered around, mostly women.
They all gazed intently, their eyes fixed on the dress in her hand, and even from afar, she seemed to see the little sparks shining in their eyes.
"I’ll offer five hundred thousand." Without waiting for the sales clerk to speak, a woman in the crowd hurriedly offered.
Once someone led, immediately others followed.o be normal. After all, in this world, for some people, money is the least useful thing.
In a blink, the dress that wasn’t favored was bid up to the high price of ten million.
This naturally attracted even more onlookers.
Every year, Longchang’s auction would have a few hit fashion items, so it wasn’t surprising. Just every year the situation was different, so the highest price for clothing varied as well.
Qiao Mo remembered that last year, the highest-priced item bought was a suit.
It was said the buyer believed the button design by the designer could change his luck, having some mysterious meaning, hence his determination to buy it, finally purchasing it at a high price of twenty-two million.
However, the year before wasn’t as fortunate; the highest-priced long dress only sold for five million six hundred thousand.
So, every year’s situation was different.
Earning much or less also had a portion of luck and visual chemistry involved.
But Qiao Mo wasn’t in a hurry. Initially, she didn’t expect this fashion show would bring her much income, but now it’s different.
After all, now, there exists this heiress of the Chen family.
If she didn’t earn more, she’d be letting down heaven’s painstaking effort to send this woman to her!
"Fifteen million!" The bid came from a second-tier actress, who stopped outside the crowd under the protection of her bodyguards, her eyes also falling on the gown in the sales clerk’s hands.
