Female supremacy: sweet girl turns into a rough woman, farming and starting a business to support he
Chapter 12 Long-term business
It took half an hour by ox cart to reach Nanshan City.
Lin Jiaojiao and Lin Shen walked in silence all the way and separated after arriving at the destination.
When she arrived in the city, she was no longer in a hurry. She wanted to take a good look around and experience the local customs and culture.
After walking around for half an hour, she felt that everything here was so strange. The streets were almost all filled with women, who were tall and strong. Occasionally, she would see men, who were all petite, but most of them wore veils. Those who didn't must have been married.
Fortunately, the body shapes of her family members are quite normal.
As she was walking around, she came to the largest cosmetics shop in Nanshan City. She also visited a few smaller ones and got to know some of the market conditions.
There were quite a lot of people in the store, mostly men. When they saw a poorly dressed woman suddenly walk in, if it weren't for the fact that she was pretty and had a good temperament, they would have shown some displeasure in their eyes but didn't say anything.
"Sir, what do you need to buy?" A waiter came towards him.
Lin Jiaojiao didn't intend to be polite and went straight to the point.
"Go find your shopkeeper. I have some good extra goods."
When the waiter heard that it was a bonus episode, he immediately perked up and took Lin Jiaojiao to the lounge. "Please take a seat first. I'll go get our shopkeeper."
Lin Jiaojiao sat on the chair and looked around the lounge. As expected of the largest cosmetics shop, the lounge was decorated in an antique style and there was a faint smell of incense in the room.
After a while, the door was pushed open.
Lin Jiaojiao thought it would be an elderly, middle-aged woman with shrewd eyes, but she didn't expect it to be such a young woman, about the same size as her, wearing a royal blue brocade dress, a jade hairpin in her hair, and a jade pendant of the same color around her waist.
I'm so jealous, you're wearing such a nice outfit.
"I am Fu Ling, the young master of Furong Pavilion. May I know your name, young lady?" The woman's voice was clear and pleasant.
"Lin Jiaojiao."
Fu Ling walked over to Lin Jiaojiao and sat down, then picked up the teapot on the table. "I heard that Miss Lin has extra items?" He poured the tea and handed it to Lin Jiaojiao.
"I apologize for my impoliteness, Miss Lin."
Lin Jiaojiao took the teacup and said politely, "It's okay." Then she took out her bag, took out a box of soap and placed it in front of Fu Ling.
"This is soap, similar to bath beans, but better than bath beans. It makes your skin smoother and more delicate after washing, and it also leaves a fragrance."
Fu Ling picked up the bamboo box and opened it. A square piece of pink soap was lying inside. She picked it up and looked at it carefully. She leaned in and smelled it. There was indeed a strong floral scent.
"Do you mind if I use it to test the effect?"
Lin Jiaojiao's expression remained unchanged, "I don't mind." But she felt annoyed in her heart, wondering why she was so stupid. She forgot to get a sample and now wasted a piece of it.
Fu Ling walked to the corner of the room, where toiletries were placed and there was clean water in the copper basin. She put her hands in to wet them, then picked up the soap and rubbed them on her hands.
It started to bubble up after a while, and the texture was delicate and smooth, very gentle, with a light floral scent, and her eyes lit up.
She washed her hands and excitedly walked up to Lin Jiaojiao with the box.
"How much do you have? I'll give you three taels of silver."
Lin Jiaojiao looked at the excited woman in front of her. She thought the price was at most two taels of silver, but she didn't expect it to be one tael higher. She didn't even bother bargaining.
"Including the box in your hand, there are ten boxes in total."
There was a flash of disappointment in Fu Ling's eyes. This was too little.
Seeing that she was disappointed, Lin Jiaojiao also wanted to do a long-term business. "My friend went out to sea. He should be back in about half a month and will bring some back."
Fu Ling immediately said excitedly: "Leave them all to me! I want as many as you can get!"
"Row."
"Ms. Lin is straightforward. I'll go and draft the contract right away."
Seeing Fu Ling getting up to leave, Lin Jiaojiao quickly said, "No need. Things are unpredictable when you are out at sea. I am afraid that something might happen to my friend. When she is brought back safely, I will definitely come to see Master Fu."
In fact, the original person was illiterate and only knew a few common words. She didn't even recognize the characters here, which meant she was also illiterate. She was afraid of being cheated and causing contract disputes.
Fu Ling thought about it and could only say regretfully: "I believe in Miss Lin, so let's have a happy cooperation."
Then Fu Ling went out and called the shopkeeper, "Ms. Lin, the shopkeeper Fu will handle the rest of the matters with you. I have something else to do, so I'll leave now."
Fu Ling took the box of tried soap and walked upstairs excitedly.
"Xiao Qiu, Xiao Qiu, look what great stuff this is!" Fu Ling shouted before she even got close to the door of the innermost room on the second floor.
As the door opened, a man in apricot-yellow brocade robe with round flowers was seen sitting by the window. His thick black hair was half-tied up with a golden lotus hairpin. His fair skin made his gorgeous facial features look even more delicate. His plump and round ears wore long gold earrings inlaid with garnets.
Half leaning on the windowsill and looking at the scenery outside the window, she turned her head when she heard the voice and said helplessly: "Sister, you are the young master after all, why are you still making such a fuss?"
Fu Ling walked over and sat on the other side of the tea table. She poured herself a pot of tea and drank it in one gulp. Then, with a proud look on her face, she handed the bamboo box of soap to Fu Qi.
"Open it and take a look."
Fu Qi took it and opened it curiously. Inside was a pink, square, and slightly moist object. He examined it carefully, touched it lightly with his fingers, and asked in confusion, "Is this a bath bean?"
"Hahaha, this is much better than bath beans. It's called soap from the extra chapter."
Fu Ling stopped teasing his younger brother and asked the servant to bring a basin of water.
"After wetting it, try applying it on your hands."
Fu Qi did as he was told. Soon, foam formed on her hands, with a faint floral scent, and her face was full of surprise.
"Sister, can you give this to me?" After washing the foam off his hands, he smelled his hands. There was still a faint floral scent, which smelled so good.
"That won't work. I've already used it. Ask Manager Fu to give you a new box later." Fu Ling reached out and took the box, just in time to catch a glimpse of Lin Jiaojiao's departing back.
"Look, it's the girl below who brought it. She looks ragged, but she's pretty decent."
Fu Qi followed Fu Ling's gaze and looked at the figure walking away on the road. The figure was tall and straight, and her long hair was tied behind her head with a cloth strip.
Lin Jiaojiao carried the empty bag, her back straight. She was a rich person now.
I made thirty taels of silver from ten boxes.
She walked to the jewelry stall she had visited before and bought everything she liked, spending a total of ten taels of silver.
She planned to go back to Chongkan Town to buy food and other things. Now that she had money, of course she would go back by carriage.
Lin Jiaojiao and Ge You were lying in the carriage, eating cakes bought in the city. After eating two pieces, she couldn't eat anymore. She felt that the taste was just average. Modern food is still more delicious.
I opened the curtains to get some fresh air and saw a dark shadow flash by outside.
Um...is that Lin Shen?
