"In any case, you can go back first. By the way, you've been very tired this time. I'll give you half a month off so you can have a good rest." Yamamoto said.
"Captain! You are really the best captain in the world!" Yamabuki was so excited that tears were about to fall. Since joining the Gotei 13, he had to complete a lot of work every day and never thought about taking a vacation. This time he had a half-month vacation. Perfect! It's perfect!
It just so happened that he wanted to use this half-month to do something big.
After leaving the captain's office, Yamabuki came to the tailor shop in Seireitei that was responsible for making clothes for the nobles.
The tailor shop was run by a lower-class noble. Lower-class nobles received far fewer resources than upper-class nobles, so they often had to do some small business to supplement their family income.
However, the average life expectancy in Soul Society is very long, and century-old stores are not uncommon.
"The Chief of Staff is here? Do you want to choose some clothes?" The tailor shop owner came up to him with a smile on his face.
"No, I'm here; just take a look! Don't mind me". Yamabuki said with a smile.
He took a quick look around the store and found that the styles of the clothes were all standard and nothing special.
There was not even the stocking he had been longing for.
Yamabuki vaguely remembered that in the real world, stockings were invented in the 14th century AD, and they were not originally worn by girls but by knights to enhance the friction between themselves and horses. Later, this trend gradually flowed into the royal nobility.
Therefore, we can often see ancient European nobles wearing high heels and stockings and attending high-class parties in some famous paintings.
"Oh, may I ask how much it costs to open a clothing store like this?" asked Yamabuki.
"The Chief of Staff wants to open a shop too?" The tailor shop owner looked surprised.
"I may be the chief of staff, but I don't actually earn much. I want to do some small business to supplement the family income." Yamabuki said with a smile.
"It's not much money, actually." The owner of the tailor shop reported a number, and Yamabuki calculated that it was almost his salary for five years.
In fact, according to the time of Soul Society, five years is not a very long time. The key is that he doesn't want to wait.
"Thank you very much! If anyone dares to bully you in the future, just tell me my name, and I'll show you how I'll deal with them!" Yamabuki said with a smile.
As a result, as soon as he left the tailor shop, his face immediately turned bitter.
"No money! No skills! No workers! How can I run this store?" Yamabuki had a bitter look on his face. He originally thought that doing business was a simple matter and would not be more difficult than entering the Hueco Mundo. But now it seems that the difficulty of these two things is at the same level.
"Wait a minute, technology… Isn't there a god-level tailor in Soul Society?" Yamabuki thought of a legendary figure, Senjumaru Shutara.
The creator of the Shihakushō and a future member of Squad Zero.
Now the Shihakushō has not yet appeared, which means Senjumaru Shutara has not yet joined the Gotei 13. Can I talk to her about technical issues?
The Soul Society has developed for millions of years, and many of its technology trees are distorted. For example, it doesn't even have ordinary means of transportation, but it can invent Zanpakuto, transform souls, and create various biochemical bacteria and other super weird things. Therefore, there is no barrier on the technical level.
Before Senjumaru Shutara joined the Gotei 13, it would be better to trick her into working for him. Senjumaru Shutara a thousand years ago should not have been very old, just a little girl, and it would be easy to trick a little girl.
Humph, if it is tricking a girl, then it's my specialty.
Yamabuki immediately contacted Yuan-Feng. He was not good at finding people, but Yuan-Feng was an assassin and must have a relatively mature intelligence network.
Yuan-Feng did not ask the reason and went straight to carrying out the task after accepting it. This is his best feature; he never asks for reasons and only gives results.
In less than half a day, Yuan-Feng came back.
"Chief of Staff, I have found out information about that woman. She opened a tailor shop on Rukong Street in the 14th district in the west. Do you want me to kidnap her?" Yuan-Feng asked.
Kidnap her!
Can you even beat her?
One should not underestimate even the strength of Senjumaru Shutara from a thousand years ago.
"Just give me the address. It's my business, and you won't have to worry about it. I'm sorry to bother you this time." Yamabuki said.
"Okay, Chief of Staff, feel free to let me know if you need anything." Yuan-Feng said it respectfully and left immediately.
He was a smart man; how could he not know what the captain meant? The captain had tied him and Yamabuki together, so if he showed any suspicious behavior, he would disappear from the face of the earth, physically.
After receiving the news, Yamabuki went straight to Rukongai. It was the 14th district in the west and ranked relatively high, so the security was very good. At least there would be no bandit jumping out while he was walking.
Yamabuki went straight to Senjumaru Shutara's tailor shop.
"Welcome!" A rather cold voice came. Yamabuki looked up and saw a skinny beauty wearing a kimono, about twenty years old, tall and thin, walking slowly towards him.
Sure enough, she is different from the black-bellied beauty a thousand years later. Perhaps because she is not very worldly-wise, Senjumaru Shutara at this time seems more pure. Perhaps her dream at this time is just to be an ordinary tailor.
However, the Reiatsu on her body betrayed her.
Although she is not as good as the current captain of the Gotei 13, she has at least the Reiatsu of a vice-captain level. This strength is more than enough to protect her in Rukongai.
"I'm just taking a look." Yamabuki's brain was working rapidly as he was thinking of how to fool her.
Senjumaru Shutara smiled slightly.
"Business in this shop is quite slow, but I think the clothes are of good quality," Yamabuki asked with a smile.
Senjumaru showed a helpless expression: "It's because the quality of the clothes I make is too good. Even if you wear them for ten years, they will remain this is why the prices are a bit expensive. But unfortunately, fewer and fewer people come to buy clothes from me."
Especially in this era, it is very difficult for ordinary residents of Rukongai to have enough food to eat, so how can they have so much money to buy clothes?
"I want to make custom clothes; do you accept such orders?" Yamabuki asked, "The craftsmanship requirements may be quite high. I have consulted many tailors, but they all said they couldn't do it. Of course, if you think it's too difficult, you can give up."
Senjumaru raised his eyebrows and said, "Young man, are you challenging my profession?"
Yamabuki took out two design drawings from his arms.
The first design drawing shows a very exquisite maid outfit, which can be referred to as the dragon maid outfit that Thohru wears.
The second design picture was the stockings that Yamabuki had been dreaming about, but it was difficult to depict the essence of the stockings with words, so he could only describe it while drawing.
"In other words, you want to make a thin silk fabric that can be worn on the legs. It should be elastic, transparent, and able to cover up the flaws on women's legs. Good idea, I can try it!" Senjumaru Shutara looked serious.
