The Xu family has become an imperial merchant. No matter how unwilling Mr. Wang is, he does not dare to force the Xu family to sell the secret recipe booklet. But in the end, he still resents the Xu family for not knowing how to promote and not doing what he wanted, which makes him unable to become the prince.
What I explained cannot satisfy the prince.
So instead of leaving in a hurry, he stayed in Yiyang Fucheng, secretly watching the Xu family, and preparing to do something to vent his anger.
I want to reach out and do something in the Xu family's workshop, so that the Xu family cannot deliver the goods on time, or there is a problem with the delivered goods, causing the Xu family to be convicted.
But the Xu family's workshop was very tight, and he really couldn't get in.
I secretly found a few people working in the workshop and gave them money as bribes. In the end, the other people would rather not take the money. They are so poor that they don’t even give the money. It’s true!
They also sent someone to think about breaking into the workshop at night and setting a fire or poisoning or something. But as soon as they entered the workshop, two vicious wolves tore off a large piece of meat.
Xu’s workshop actually raises wolves!
Several times like this, it was impossible to rely on him. Mr. Wang was afraid of being exposed, so he had to stop.
I thought that when the Xu family's delivery arrived in Beijing, I would use other methods to seize and destroy the goods.
But when it came time for the Xu family to deliver goods to Beijing, it was Manager Wu who went to the Xu family's workshop to pull the goods!
Mr. Wang watched secretly and gritted his teeth angrily. There was nothing he could do to the Xu family.
It is true that he can bribe some second-rate people to deal with the Xu family, but this is painless and will also expose himself. If he goes too far, he will not be able to stop the situation.
Xu family, if Manager Wu is willing to help like this, isn't that what the emperor wants?
Mr. Wang had no choice but to return to the capital in despair. After consulting the prince, we will see how to deal with the Xu family's anger.
…
In March, spring was warm and flowers were blooming. All kinds of flowers were blooming. Many petals were collected to prepare essential oils. Xu Yinyin also tried to mix several new flavors, and launched new soaps, balms, lipsticks, etc.
She was practicing vigorously when Dong Qinghua put his arm around her and talked about the cosmetics set.
Others didn't know that the cosmetics set was exchanged for it, they just assumed that it was all made by her. That set was used for a year and was used up. Dong Qinghua was used to using it, but he was really not used to using other ones.
No, just hold Xu Yinyin's arm and act coquettishly, and I will definitely ask her to match her with another one.
Xu Yinyin also wanted to make it herself, but there were too many things in this set, and some of them were really difficult to mix because she couldn't find all the raw materials.
But Dong Qinghua has already been found, and others must also be eager to do so.
If this cosmetic could be sold, it would be a huge profit.
Xu Yinyin thought about it for two days and finally decided to make one!
If you can make it, you can make it yourself, if you can't make it, look to someone else, and you can earn as much as you want.
Beeswax, honey, tea seed oil, various essential oils, aloe vera gel, etc. are all available. These are all needed in the workshop to make toothpaste and are always in stock.
Another option is to use flowers to extract colors for making eye shadow, blush, etc.
The box needs to be customized by a carpenter, the small ceramic jar needs to be customized by a porcelain shop, and the makeup brushes also need to be customized. This is the most labor-intensive, after all, it has to be made so finely.
Then, all you need to do is to exchange them with Tongzi, cocoa powder, etc., and exchange them for large buckets, which are affordable and durable, and you can save the number of exchanges.
When everything was ready, Xu Yinyin took Linglong and Forsythia and started working on it.
It took a lot of effort to wait for the customized boxes to arrive, and then I packed and packaged the cosmetic boxes one by one.
The box was painted and engraved with various patterns. It looked simple and elegant. It was more grand than the box produced by the system. Everything inside looked no worse than before.
It would be even better if glass sperm could be used for this bronze mirror. Unfortunately, Commander Yang has no good news yet.
She was still shelving the glass matter.
Xu Yinyin tried it herself first, and after putting on one set of makeup, the effect was pretty good.
As I said before, this thing is not easy to make. Of course, you can’t put too many on it at once. If you add too much, it won’t look precious.
So besides giving a set to Dong Qinghua and a few others, Xu Yinyin only put out twenty sets for new sale in the Yangliu Lane shop.
The beautiful and exquisite boxes made Mrs. Xu click her tongue when she saw them, and she didn't dare to touch them for fear of being damaged.
She also watched how much effort it took her granddaughter to make this, "Yin Yin, how much money can we sell for such a big box?"
Xu Yinyin said: "Fifty taels."
"What?" Old Man Xu and Mrs. Xu couldn't close their mouths.
This box looks very nice, but it's neither a food nor a life-saving thing. Just fifty taels for this one? Damn, ordinary people can't spend fifty taels a year.
Why do you have such a noble face that you are willing to use such expensive things?
Xu Yinyin felt that fifty taels was really not expensive. Just customizing the box cost a small five taels, and the pots and brushes also added up to a lot.
It was a waste of energy and money to get these things inside, and it cost her several exchange opportunities.
Now this exchange opportunity is hard to come by. She spent a lot of money to ask Hu Pingye to look for her everywhere.
It can be said that these exchange opportunities are almost all made with money.
That's not easy.
Fifty taels of silver can't make much.
If she really wanted to sell it for a hundred taels, believe it or not, someone would buy it?
This cosmetics box is not sold to ordinary people, and those who know how to buy it don't care about the money.
Just like in later generations, if you don't have money, a set of skin care products will cost you a thousand yuan, but if you have money, a bottle of facial cream will cost you tens of thousands.
How to say this.
In short, no matter how expensive things are, people will buy them without fear of not being able to sell them.
No, as soon as Dong Qinghua and others received the cosmetics box, as soon as the news spread, the cosmetics boxes had been sold out not even half a day after they were placed in the shop. That's it, it wasn't enough to sell. There are still some who came late.
Stomping your feet, why is it gone? Just put more on it.
Twenty sets are not enough to fill the gap between the teeth of the ladies of Yiyang Mansion, as well as the ladies of the boudoir.
Xu Yinyin took the opportunity to say that from now on, the shop can only sell ten new units every month, first come first served.
Of course, you can customize it. Customization means you don’t have to wait for new products every month and you can get something.
But if you order it, you can only accept ten reservations at most in a month, and a set costs ten taels more.
Just like that, ten reservations for next month were taken on the same day, and the reservation quota for the next month was also filled.
Old Man Xu and Old Mrs. Xu looked on and silently closed their mouths. At this moment, they no longer marveled at how someone's face could be so precious. Someone's face was really precious!
There is so much gold!
Dong Qinghua and others also sent money, saying that they would buy it themselves in the future, but they could not let Xu Yinyin give it away for free, so they also booked the places for next month.
Now that they can buy one, they don’t have to be so fussy about using it. They will only use it on important occasions. Who doesn’t like beautiful things? Whenever they go out, they will use it!
There was a quarrel about the cosmetics craze in Yiyang Mansion, and the ladies and noble ladies gathered at the banquet to discuss this.
Xu Yinyin is now the Queen of the Township, and every banquet in Yiyang Mansion must have a post for her. It is inevitable that at the banquet, she will see the really inappropriate makeup of a lady who bought her cosmetics.
It's not that she's ugly, it just has some flaws.
Xu Yinyin, who is very obsessive about makeup, really can't stand it. She doesn't allow others to use her cosmetics and still make them look bad. Isn't this a bad sign?
So, I specially held a banquet and posted messages to people of all sizes in Yiyang Fucheng. Although most of them had not bought cosmetics yet, they were all potential customers. I invited them all at once, and they were in place, that’s right.
of.
Why is she holding a party?
Naturally, there is a makeup teaching conference and exchange conference!
At the meeting, Xu Yinyin specially invited some ladies and girls with different face shapes and characteristics to be models. She personally put on makeup for them so that others could watch and learn from them.
It is obvious that the people drawn by her hands have changed greatly, become more beautiful, and have particularly strong personal characteristics. In the crowd, they can be noticed at a glance.
In this way, everyone had to be amazed, and then they all asked Xu Yinyin for advice.
Xu Yinyin did not hide her secrets. She shared some of her own experiences and insights. What kind of makeup should be worn on any occasion depends on the shape of the eyes, the shape of the eyebrows, and the shape of the lips.
For example, if a person has thick lips, will it look good if you apply a big lipstick on them, which will look like a bloody mouth? In this case, you need to learn to apply a primer on the lips to modify the shape of the lips.
For another example, not everyone is suitable for eyebrow eyebrows.
In short, the most important thing is to find your own characteristics, show these characteristics in a good match, and apply makeup that suits you.
After a banquet, all the people who had not thought about ordering before and were still waiting on the sidelines placed orders.
Ever since, the next month’s order quota has been filled up.
Xu Yinyin held a stack of banknotes in her arms and was so happy that she almost couldn't find them.
Let’s not forget that living in the capital is not easy. Houses are expensive and difficult to buy.
Let her make more money and try to buy a house in the capital before her brother goes to Beijing to take the exam!
However, before that, let's buy a house in Zhoucheng first, and we can't break our promise to my bratty brother.
You work hard to study for the imperial examinations to support your family, and I work hard to make money so that you have a worry-free future.
Speaking of Zhoucheng, we must first talk about Xu Erlang's plan to open a shop in Zhoucheng after he visited Zhoucheng last year.
No, at the beginning of the new year, Xu Yinyin sent Tong Zhongliang and his son to Zhoucheng. He just came back a few days ago and said that he had found a shop in a good location.
When Xu Yinyin sent them there, she had promised them that as long as they found a suitable shop with a suitable price, they could make a reservation first and then come back to reply.
Therefore, Tong Zhongliang rushed back to report the news, and the Tong family stayed in the city to keep an eye on it.
As soon as Xu Yinyin heard the letter, she asked Xu Chunhe to take Xu Erlang with him, take the money from the public account, and go to Zhoucheng with Tong Zhongliang.
Then the shop was placed, and the Tong family came back to answer the question first. At the moment, the three of them are still staying there, busy decorating and preparing for the opening.
When the shop over there opens and there are people left, no matter how careful you are to help pay attention to the house, you can buy the house before next year's provincial examination, which is still more than a year away.
Of course, this is only if Xu Dajun can pass the government examination and pass the college examination this time. If not, there is no need to worry.
