1960's Daily Struggle

　　Cheng Zhou had no choice but to wait for a while to return to the small yard and take out the stock in the space button to fill his stomach.

　　On the way back to the small yard, he was distracted and noticed a tailor shop. Before it closed, he walked in curiously.

　　An old master is stepping on a heavy sewing machine, his two hands move the fabric regularly, the soles of his feet slide up and down like a seesaw, and then the sharp needles on the sewing machine quickly thread the needles on the fabric, and the speed is visible to the naked eye.

　　Following the master's movements, the sewing machine made a rhythmic sound of "da-da-da".

　　Cheng Zhou stood by and stared blankly for a long time.

　　The old master stopped the work in his hand, picked up the extra coil and wrapped it around his fingers, looked at Cheng Zhou, and said in a kind voice, "Little comrade, are you going to make clothes?"

　　"Ah yes yes yes, I want to make clothes, but I have never been to a tailor shop, how do I charge for making clothes here?" Cheng Zhou came back to his senses and nodded excitedly.

　　This old master's craftsmanship is very powerful at first glance, and it happens that he is going to change his clothes here.

　　The master smiled and gave a detailed introduction: "If you provide the fabric yourself and bring it over and let us make ready-made clothes, it is estimated to be about one yuan. The specific price depends on what you want to make. How long does it take to do it?”

　　"What if I use the fabric from the store?" Cheng Zhou noticed that there were also fabrics of different colors hanging on the back wall.

　　"Little comrade, if you want to make clothes for yourself, such as long sleeves and trousers, you will need at least three yuan, and the cloth ticket will also be counted separately." The old master said slowly.

　　"I want to make two clothes first, and the style is probably the same as what I wear, is that okay?"

　　The price of making clothes is acceptable, and the craftsmanship of this old master should be very good, so Cheng Zhou decided to make clothes here.

　　When the old master heard the words, he looked up and down the clothes of the boat, Cheng Zhou also cooperated and turned around so that he could see the style of the clothes. They were all very common styles, but the details of tailoring were still a little different from the clothes of this era. , there is an indescribable sense of luxury.

　　"Yes, the cutting of this style is not complicated, and it is quite simple to make." The old master stood up and led Cheng Zhou to the counter at the back, "Which color of fabric do you want to choose?"

　　"This navy blue one, and the black one." Cheng Zhou touched the fabrics carefully one by one. He couldn't help but want to choose other colors to make a few more pieces, but in order to be low-key and not conspicuous, he could only do these two for the time being. pieces.

　　"Okay, come with me." The old master gave him a small note, only received a deposit of one dollar, and then picked up the tape measure to measure the size of the boat.

　　Cheng Zhou stood on the spot, stretched his arms to let him measure the size, and asked curiously, "Master, how long does it take for the clothes to be ready?"

　　"You can pick it up at noon the day after tomorrow. Remember to bring your voucher to pick it up." The old master took a careful measurement, put away the tape measure, and wrote down the size in a small notebook.
