Auspicious Tailor Shop.
This was an old tailor shop that had stood in Dragon Emperor Giant City for nearly eighty years, its longevity not due to craftsmanship but due to funding from above.
An elderly tailor lay on a rocking chair in the sun with a book covering his face.
A customer walked in and tapped on the desk.
Ding, ding-ding, ding-ding-ding.
The old tailor drawled, "What kind of garment would you like to have tailored?"
"Two sets of winter Tang suits."
Once the coded message matched, the old tailor removed the book from his face.
Looking at Chen Xing, "Has the customer prepared the deposit?"
Chen Xing took a thick envelope from his chest and placed it on the desk.
"How many days will it take to be ready?"
After a moment of reflection, the old tailor said, "Approximately 15-20 days."
Chen Xing shook his head, "Too slow, I need it done in ten days."
"Ten days," the old tailor hesitated.
