Xu Zilan got the shop and drew the drawings herself to find someone to rearrange it. She wrote to Jiang Miao to see the decoration of the shop. The environment of the location was impeccable. Jiang Miao gave her some suggestions from a modern perspective. They opened
Cosmetic stores and shops should ensure lighting and ventilation. It would be great if there are glass mirrors.
You can install two sides in the shop, which not only ensures lighting, but also makes it convenient for customers to try it out.
However, making mirrors requires quartz sand, and Jiang Miao doesn't know where to find it yet. Her most important thing now is to solve the food and clothing problem of the people in Zhenjiang Prefecture. These icing on the cake should be considered later.
Xu Zilan took her suggestion and revised the decoration drawings. If there was no glass mirror, she could use a copper mirror instead. She also opened two more windows and removed the heavy curtains and replaced them with light screens. It was bright and cool for the guests.
Even if we come here in the summer, we won't feel exposed.
While Jiang Miao was leading her men to make fragrant soap and other products, Xu Zilan's shop was also renovated. The name of the shop was decided upon by the two of them.
Because the Xu family sells the shop and Jiang Miao sells the products, the shop does not bear the names of the two companies. Otherwise, if Jiang Miao opened it herself, she would just use the name Jiang Ji Xiangfang. It is simple and easy to remember and does not require her to think of a name.
.
But this is a shop opened by two people, and they cannot deal with it so casually, so after Jiang Miao and Xu Zilan discussed it, they decided to name it Yugui Fong. The elegant name will tell you what kind of business it is.
The plaque was inscribed by Shen Yanqing himself. His words are powerful and powerful, even compared to those of famous masters. Xu Zilan also had no objection to his inscription.
Originally, Xu Ziwen wanted to ask him to answer the question, but when Xu Zilan thought of his dog-like font, she felt disgust in her heart and refused to let him do anything.
Xu Ziwen curled his lips, Xu Zilan just didn't have the discernment to look down on his handwriting. His calligraphy is called cursive script, and he has the most famous character. If Shen Yan hadn't written the title later, he would have done it himself.
Jiang Miao and Xu Zilan's shop opened with great success.
June has just passed, when the weather is getting hot, and young ladies in the capital don't like to go out anymore, but Jiang Ru can't hold it in at home, especially recently when her aunt has been visiting other people for her, and she just wants to get married.
Give it to the emperor, why would you want to look at anyone else?
At this time, in order to avoid Aunt Zhao's nagging, I took my maid and called some good sisters to go shopping.
"Ru'er, I heard that a new shop has opened in Xijiekou, specializing in new gadgets. How about we go and take a look?"
The young lady who spoke was the daughter of General Du under Jiang Zhe. Her name was Du Yanyan. She was as gorgeous and bright as her name, but her clothes were a little tacky. She was too old-fashioned for her age.
Jiang Ru nodded slightly when she heard her words, and looked at her with jealousy hidden in her eyes. Jiang Ru looked just like Aunt Zhao, but she was pretty, and she couldn't stand women who were prettier than her.
But which noble girl in the capital has not grown up pampered and nourished by good things since childhood? Every little lady is as beautiful as a flower and charming, so she can only buy some clothes, jewelry, rouge, and gouache to dress herself up.
When Jiang Ru heard that a new shop had opened, she became interested. She was tired of visiting other shops in the capital, and the items in each shop were nothing new.
"You lead the way and have a look."
Jiang Ruyi gave orders, as if Du Yanyan was her little maid. Du Yanyan smiled on the surface, her hands under her sleeves clenched tightly, her neatly manicured nails dug into her flesh, water vapor came out of her eyes, and a trace of light flashed across her face.
humiliation.
If her father hadn't been working under General Jiang, why would she have supported Jiang Ru, who was just a concubine? She really thought of herself as the eldest lady. When the wealthy lady at the front was found, she would be as good-looking as her.
As Du Yanyan walked in front, she thought about Jiang Ru's fate in the future, and felt a strong sigh of relief in her heart.
Their mansion is not far from West Street Entrance, and they arrived within a short walk. The door of Yu Guifang is wide open. From the outside, you can see the flowers in the house, and the windows are bright and clean. Just looking at it makes people feel relaxed and happy, and even more so.
Not to mention that if you get closer, you can still smell the warm fragrance coming from the shop.
"What does this smell like? It smells pretty good."
A young lady was whispering, covering her nose with a veil, but actually inhaling the fragrance under the veil.
Shopkeeper Xu came up to her with a smile. She was a daughter of the Xu family, and her husband was the steward of Xu's father. This time, she caught Xu Zilan's eye and came to be the shopkeeper in Yugui Fong.
Shopkeeper Xu acted in an elegant manner, fearing that he would disappoint Xu Zilan's expectations.
She had seen the world with Xu's mother, and she knew at a glance that these young ladies were of extraordinary origins, and the clothes they wore were all made of rare and good materials.
Especially the leading young lady was wearing Yunyanluo, which was worth a lot of money. My own lady once got a foot, but she still kept it in the warehouse and refused to use it.
"To my lady, this is the scent of incense in our shop. Do you want to come in and take a look?"
"Aromatherapy? What is that?"
Jiang Ru and others walked in and looked around, and they could see the clues at this glance.
The decoration of Jade Kwai Fong is more exquisite than other shops. Although the shop is not large in area, it looks clean and bright.
As soon as they entered the door, they could still feel the breeze blowing on their faces, and the fragrance of flowers and fruits penetrated their noses. It seemed that they had not entered a shop, but someone's back garden. They all felt that they were relaxed physically and mentally, and they felt like they wanted to wait for the maid to take care of them.
The urge for snacks with tea.
This is the right place!
"Ladies, drink some tea."
Shopkeeper Xu brought several cups of tea on a tray, with bright red hawthorn slices floating in them. It tasted sweet and quickly captured the hearts of the young ladies.
"Shopkeeper, what kind of tea is this?"
Du Yanyan claimed to be the daughter of a general and not an ignorant country bumpkin, but she had never seen anything in this shop.
"This is hawthorn tea, which has the effect of relieving greasiness, appetizing, and beautifying the skin."
"oh?"
When they heard about beauty and beauty, the eyes of several young ladies lit up. They are all as young as flowers. There is no young lady who does not love beauty. Tea with this effect is naturally very popular among them.
"How much does a box of this tea cost? I want it all!"
"Hey, Du Yanyan, you are not kind. Why do you want to buy so many people?"
"Yes, we want to buy it too!"
Du Yanyan's words almost caused the young ladies to fight. She also knew that she was being reckless, so she quickly took a look at Jiang Ru's face. Sure enough, she was frowning with a stern look on her face. Du Yanyan felt nervous and quickly spoke to save her.
"I'm not going to buy it for my sisters. I brought you here, so I want to give you some gifts..."
"Huh, that's pretty much it, but we have plenty of money, so we don't need you to give it to us."
These little ladies are not stupid. How could they not see the look in her eyes just now? They were trying to please Jiang Ru, and they would not let her have her way.
