"You came up with a list of two hundred people in just three days. Isn't it a bit hasty?" Li Chong glanced at the list that Li Zhigao was looking at and couldn't help but ask Han Qian questioningly.
Secret Cao Zuosi infiltrated various residences, firstly, with the help of warehouses, which he had to cooperate with Feng Yi, and secondly, with the help of rouge shops to contact the female relatives in various residences. This was undoubtedly an excellent strategy, but Han Qian did not
Regardless of the fact that they sent someone to control the most critical node, Li Chong couldn't help but wonder if Han Qian didn't take Secret Cao Zuo Si into his heart at all, and maybe just wanted to deal with it by bluffing him.
Otherwise, if you want to select 200 suitable spies, how can you accomplish it in three days?
"As the saying goes, make decisions before taking action, know what to stop and then achieve." Years later, my father and I co-edited "Commentaries on the Yongjian Chapter". Brother Li really thought that my father and son would just sit back at home and work on what would be suitable for the hungry people.
Didn't the soldiers who came to serve as spies not consider it?" Han Qian asked rhetorically.
Li Chong was speechless and speechless.
Li Chong's feelings towards Han Qian were extremely contradictory. On the one hand, he was constantly humiliated and suppressed by Han Qian. No matter how good-tempered he was, he still wanted to tear the bones of this bastard in front of him, but on the other hand, he had to admit that
Han Qian, the bastard, has only played a small role during this period. He knows in his heart that the situation on their side is far from optimistic, and he hopes that Han Qian can continue to play a greater role.
The roster that Han Qian gave to Li Zhigao was naturally a simplified version, with name, household registration, and age. Take this roster to the camp military office, and it also corresponds to the roster of capable soldiers, but there is no more information. Li Zhigao, Li Chong, and the others
Naturally, there's nothing special about it.
Li Zhigao was more generous than Li Chong, and he could also hear that Han Qian said the five words "make a decision and then act" to refute Li Chong, while the five words "know the stop and then achieve" were said to them to show that
He knows what's appropriate. If they don't push him too hard and give him corresponding benefits, he won't go too far.
Inviting Chun Niang to take charge of the rouge shop and participate in the key aspects of the establishment of Secret Cao Zuosi was Han Qian's sincerity to this side.
Li Zhigao carefully took the roster into his arms and said to Han Qian: "I was really surprised by how fast you acted, but I thought that was the only way to make it happen." He then said to Yao Xishui, "Send someone
Go and inform Thirteen Niang to come over, Han Qian’s side is short of manpower, and you shouldn’t be stingy either.”
"Thirteenth Niang is nearby, I'll invite her over." Yao Xishui looked at Han Qian with doubts in his eyes, but finally got up in person and went to the next yard to call Chunniang over.
Only then did Fan Dahei and Lin Haizheng realize that there were so many secrets hidden in the famous Wanhong Mansion in Jinling. They had been trained a lot by Han Qian these days, but they were still a little embarrassed.
Zhao Ting'er sat next to Han Qian and curiously looked at Su Hongyu opposite him.
Su Hongyu is both beautiful and good at piano painting.
Zhao Ting'er's facial features are no less beautiful than Su Hongyu's, and are even more beautiful. However, Su Hongyu's temperament, which has been cultivated for a long time, seems to be relaxed and gentle, and makes people feel gentle and heart-warming, as well as the amorous feelings that flow between her eyes.
, but it was what Zhao Ting'er lacked and envied at this time.
Zhao Wuji, on the other hand, stood behind Han Qian like an old monk who had entered meditation, showing a terrifying youthful maturity.
After a while, Yao Xishui walked in with a stunningly beautiful and charming girl, wearing a chest-length skirt, revealing her snow-like breasts, which were so bulging that they were about to burst out.
Hearing the good-for-nothing Fan Dahei gulp down his saliva behind him, Han Qian understood why Kong Zhou, a well-known wife-fearing warrior, was still trying to marry Chun Niang back to his house as a concubine.
It's a pity that such a character didn't make full use of the talents cultivated in Wanhonglou, and was blocked outside the door of the Kong family mansion.
"Thirteenth Niang has met Mr. Han," Yao Xishui should have told him what should be said. Chun Niang walked in and immediately bowed down in front of Han Qian, "Thirteenth Niang will listen to Mr. Han's teachings from now on."
"There is a rouge shop called Ningxianglou on Fengxiang Street. You go and order some, and I will send my manpower to you later." Han Qian put his hands on his knees, and when he saw Chun Niang leaning over to worship, he smiled brightly.
The indescribable eyes were still looking at her, she was really a beautiful woman who knew how to seduce people, but since Li Zhigao assigned Chun Niang to his use, he didn't need to be polite, he just assigned things to Chun Niang directly as if Li Zhigao, Yao Xishui and others were present.
Yao Xishui and Su Hongyu looked at each other. Since Han Qian had chosen the location, he must have made a move. This made people both happy and worried.
Han Qian didn't care what Yao Xishui and Su Hongyu were thinking, and continued to comment on Chun Niang: "You must teach these people I assigned to you with all your heart. It is inconvenient for me to go in and out of Ningxiang Tower. If there is anything, you must tell Zhao Ting'er about it."
.If there is anything to hide and delay the matter, I will deal with you according to Zuo Si's method, and then the Marquis of Yu will not be able to blame me for being ruthless!"
If she was to follow Han Qian's direct command, Chun Niang was willing. She also wanted to keep an eye on Han Qian for Wan Honglou, but she never thought that Han Qian would ask her to report to a young girl with yellow hair. She felt a little embarrassed.
Han Qian turned a blind eye to Chun Niang's dissatisfaction, and said to Yao Xishui and Su Hongyu: "I originally thought that the lipstick used by the girls in Wanhonglou should be one of the best in Jinling City, so that they can attract customers in an endless stream, but I have seen you several times.
The rouge and gouache applied on the face are messy and dull, so it is easy to get the fragrance and gouache, but without the real first-class rouge and gouache, it will not be able to attract all the noble families in the city, and the follow-up work will not be done either."
"Hey, I heard that Mr. Han is a top-notch stonemason. Is it possible that he can also make makeup products for this woman?" Su Hongyu also has a good temper, but the rouge and gouache used in Wanhonglou is still from Liyang Houyang.
The year before last, I went to Wanhonglou to listen to her playing the piano, but I forgot to bring any money, so I finally left a prescription to pay for the piano.
Su Hongyu made rouge according to the recipe given by Yang Si, and she was either the first or the second in Jinling City. Unexpectedly, Han Qian started to point fingers on this matter. No matter how good-tempered she was, she still wanted to make sarcastic remarks.
sentence.
Su Hongyu didn't believe that Han Qian had read a few ancient books and copied a few ancient recipes from the ancient books, which were really better than the recipes given by Yang En, the chief material officer of the right school.
Han Qian glanced at Su Hongyu. He had speculated about the division of labor among Su Hongyu, Yao Xishui and others in Wanhonglou. At this time, Su Hongyu, who was always sitting lazily, actually interrupted and laughed. He knew that the rouge used by many girls in Wanhonglou might be hers.
That's why it had such a big reaction.
At this time, I thought about the Huandu powder that Yao Xishui mixed into wine and tricked him into drinking last August. Was it made by Su Hongyu?
"Ting'er, take out the rouge you made to open the eyes of some sisters." Han Qian said to Zhao Ting'er.
Seeing that Han Qian was ready to cause trouble, Li Zhigao smiled slightly, rolled up his sleeves and looked at the maids beside Han Qian to see if they could come up with any outstanding rouge that could subdue Hongyu and the others.
Yao Xishui's wonderful eyes swept over, thinking that this guy just said that the maid next to him didn't know about rouge and gouache, so he invited Chun Niang to come out to host the rouge shop. He didn't expect that he could change his words without changing his expression at this moment. I don't know what he is doing with his face.
of.
Zhao Ting'er was a little excited and a little timid. She took out a small copper box wrapped in a brocade handkerchief from her arms. When she stood up, she handed it to Su Hongyu. When she saw Han Qian sitting upright, he handed the rouge box to the case in front of Han Qian.
He said to Chun Niang in front of the case: "Please help me pass it to the two sisters for a look."
When Chun Niang saw that Zhao Ting'er's little hoof actually made her stand up, she resisted the urge to roll her eyes, picked up the rather crude copper rouge box, and opened it directly: "Sister, I would also like to think about Miss Ting'er's wonderful craftsmanship.
It can ruin everyone’s situation in Su.”
Chun Niang was from Wanhonglou, and Han Qian wanted to allow her to be more arrogant, so he put his hands on his knees and watched her open the rouge box.
Yao Xishui is the same age as Han Qian and is under 20. He doesn't need any make-up and his beauty is natural.
Needless to say, Su Hongyu, I heard that the first-class rouge in Jinling City was made by her own hands; Chun Niang is nearly thirty years old and is afraid of aging, so she pays great attention to her makeup, so she can naturally tell the difference between good and bad.
Han Qian wants to use her to run the rouge shop. It can be said that she is making the best use of her.
"..." Chun Niang took a thin cotton ball and took a little rouge from the box and spread it on her hand. She was silent for a long time before asking, "How many boxes of this rouge can be made per month?"
"You can't make too many of the best things. Three to five boxes or seven or eight boxes are enough every month. Only then can the nobles in the city be thinking about them and send people over to check them out. The second-class goods can be supplied by Wanhonglou."
Yes." Han Qian said boldly.
Su Hongyu had already seen from a distance that the rouge oil spread by Chun Niang's palms was even in color and revealed a natural jade color. It was definitely the best quality. She made it by herself, and she would produce one or two boxes a year. It was also pure.
Depend on luck.
"How is that possible?" Su Hongyu couldn't help but got up and walked to Chun Niang, took the rouge box, put it to her nose and smelled it, and asked doubtfully, "It is also made of red orchids, why is the color so uniform and translucent?
There’s no trace of impurity at all?”
Han Qian just smiled and would not tell them the rouge-making method that he and Zhao Ting'er spent two or three months improving. He said, "It's good if everyone in Su knows how to use it together..."
