Quick Wear: Crazy Fox Calm Tree
Chapter 68 The Young Master and the Jinyiwei Leader 29
"Since you are going to give away sachets, why not give away some spices unique to the capital. I remember hearing someone say a few days ago that a new store opened nearby. There are many novel things in the store, one of the spices is water of different colors. Each color represents a flavor, and all the commonly used scents are available. Why don't we go there and take a look." Qin Yu remembered the shop that his subordinates mentioned casually when he was checking things before, and spoke immediately.
"Perfume?" A hint of surprise flashed in Mu Qing's eyes. It seemed that this shop should be opened by the heroine again. But didn't the heroine only know how to make food? When would she also make these things?
"Yes, it seems to be called this name. In addition to perfume, there are also some soaps in it. It is said that it can wash things more cleanly, and it smells good too." Qin Yu nodded.
"It sounds quite interesting. Let's go and take a look. If it's really that good, we should bring some for my aunt and the others." Mu Qing became interested. Although he had made soaps before out of boredom, they were all made with soap bases bought online. He just had to melt it and add some essential oils.
As for starting from scratch, Mu Qing had never done it before, and he didn't know what the heroine had done before. She actually knew how to make soap, which she really was a talent.
"Well, the business of that store was not very good in the beginning. It could even be said to be very bleak. But I don't know how the people behind it came up with so many novel and weird ideas. Within just a few days, it attracted a large number of customers, especially the ladies and girls of various families. Now they have become accustomed to using the things in that store." Qin Yu introduced as he walked.
"What methods did they use?" Mu Qing asked curiously.
"For example, points and models. When the store first opened, they found a bunch of girls to stand at the door and try out the products. They also told them a lot about how to use the products and their benefits to the body.
In addition, they wrote the news of the store opening on a piece of paper and sent it to people throughout the capital." Qin Yu said.
"These methods should be quite useful for ordinary people, but they are probably not suitable for the wives and daughters of officials! They probably don't think highly of them." Mu Qing nodded, then became a little confused.
These methods are indeed enough for ordinary people, but if the people you want to sell are the ladies of various families, then it is far from enough.
The ladies and girls of each family have their own things and shops. Not only has the hostess's shop just opened, but the things it sells are all weird things that have never been seen before. Even if it has been open for a long time, those ladies and girls may not necessarily appreciate it. How can they regard this as a fashion?
"Originally, they should have looked down upon it, but the owner of the shop got in touch with the Shangshu's wife. The Shangshu's wife tried those things and brought them to the Beginning of Summer Banquet, so the ladies of the families knew about it.
Seeing that the Shangshu's wife liked it very much, the ladies and wives of other families also tried it one after another. They felt that it was good, and later they used it more and more.
For the ladies who bought the most, the shop would occasionally give out some things as gifts. Although those things were not worth much, they were very novel and unique, which made them look good.
So the ladies of each family began to compete secretly, and gradually the reputation of this shop became more and more famous. So far, in just over a month, it has become one of the most popular shops. "Qin Yu couldn't help but admire him as he spoke. The means were secondary. The key was that the other party had good connections and luck.
As soon as she arrived in the capital, she saved the life of the Shangshu's wife, which earned her gratitude and helped her get in touch with the Shangshu's mansion. Later, because she helped Prince Xue, Prince Xue gave her his shop and gave her his guards and maids as his subordinates.
In addition to this, they have helped countless people, and they always helped the other person where they needed it most.
Either he picked up a seriously injured businessman or a young master, or he encountered a rich girl who was sick on the street, or he saved the grandson of a high-ranking official who was kidnapped...
It can be said that the other party did not spend any capital to open these shops, and even the people working under him were given by other people. This luck is simply too good to be true.
If he hadn't found out that those were just accidental and not intentional, Qin Yu would have wanted to take his brothers to take the other party away and give him a thorough interrogation.
Listening to Qin Yu's complaints, Mu Qing couldn't help but want to laugh. It seemed that the male and female protagonists this time were quite impressive, and the protagonist's halo was really turned up.
They are really much stronger than the two things encountered in the previous world. Just by listening to this, the male and female protagonists' skills in all aspects are almost maxed out.
The heroine is a beautiful farm girl who can cook delicious food, practice medicine, play chess, and do handicrafts, and is particularly good at making money.
The hero is a bastard from a distinguished family, with great martial arts skills and a high IQ.
With their luck, it would be extremely easy to win people's hearts and recruit soldiers. As long as they had a little ambition, they could overthrow the Great Zhou and ascend the throne directly.
Fortunately, this novel is a farming novel, and their greatest development is to become the free and easy prince and princess.
Mu Qing and Qin Yu walked towards the store while chatting and laughing.
The store opened by the heroine was not far from the street they had just visited, just one street away.
Standing in front of the heroine's shop, Mu Qing looked up and down at the store in front of him. Unlike the previous shop selling milk tea, this shop looked very spacious and bright.
The female owner replaced all the wooden doors in front of the shop with hollow ones. Through the window in the middle, one can clearly see what is going on inside the store.
There are rows of cabinets in the store, with various things placed on them. There are also tables, chairs and mirrors on both sides for customers to try out the goods.
"This shop is quite different from the usual shops. It looks quite unique." Qin Yu commented.
"Well, let's go in and take a look." Mu Qing nodded.
As soon as you enter the store, a faint fragrance hits your nose, which smells particularly tempting.
Mu Qing looked around and found that in addition to perfumes and soaps, the store also displayed some familiar things, such as common modern lipsticks, eyebrow pencils, etc.
"Hello, gentlemen!" A beautifully dressed woman came over, greeted them warmly and introduced the products to them.
Mu Qing picked up a blue perfume and sniffed it gently. The fresh scent made him feel happy.
"This perfume smells quite special." Mu Qing said, "It smells very nice. Is it the scent of blue wind chimes?"
"This gentleman has a good eye. This is indeed the scent of blue wind chimes. This blue perfume is our signature product. Its scent can make people feel relaxed and peaceful, and it sells very well.
There are only a few bottles left now, if you like it, you can buy one to try."
Mu Qing nodded slightly and looked at the other perfumes, soaps and the like.
"Please introduce other things to us. I want to know more."
"Okay, no problem. I wonder who the two gentlemen want to show it to or what their goal is?" The woman nodded and then asked.
"I want to buy some as New Year's gifts for my elders at home, some of whom are my age. You can look at the introduction. Price is not a problem." Mu Qing said with a smile
The woman's eyes lit up, the smile on her face became even brighter, and she began to introduce herself more actively.
Mu Qing listened to the woman's introduction and began to choose seriously. Qin Yu, who was standing beside them, followed them for a while, then said something to Mu Qing and started to look at it himself.
Compared with these things in the store, he is more interested in the owner of this store.
Xia Yimei, an ordinary peasant girl, transformed herself from a peasant girl to a business girl, and then from a business girl to the wife of the third young master of the Xu family in just two years.
The changes in this situation cannot be explained by mere luck.
……
Xia Yimei put down the abacus in her hand and looked out the window.
"What's wrong? Are you tired?" Xu Zhou wiped the sweat off his head and walked in from outside. Seeing that Xia Yimei was not looking at the account book but looking out the window, he asked curiously, "How about I take you out for a walk? Although the weather is a little hot now, the scenery outside is very nice and many flowers are blooming."
"No, I just suddenly thought of something. The weather is so hot now, I'm too lazy to go out, I'm almost tanned." Xia Yimei said as she touched her face and looked at her hands that had turned white with great effort.
When she first came here, her skin wasn't dark, but it was quite yellow. She had put a lot of effort into making herself so fair and tender.
"You are good-looking, so it doesn't matter if you are a little dark." Xu Zhouzhong walked away with a smile, went over and kissed Xia Yimei, his eyes full of love.
Xia Yimei smiled and pushed him.
"By the way, have you heard any news about the victims outside these two days?" Xia Yimei asked seriously.
"Are you talking about the north? I saw some victims when I came here, but I didn't pay much attention to them after arriving in the capital. What's wrong? Are the victims coming here?" Xu Zhouzhong asked with a frown.
The reason why they hurried to the capital in the middle of winter was, firstly, because of his identity, and secondly, because of the snowstorm.
The village was already very cold during that time, and heavy snow fell for several days in a row. Everything was buried under the snow. Not to mention hunting, even if you wanted to go out to the river to get some water, you couldn't find the way.
Although there were no casualties when they left, the area nearby was extremely deserted. Everyone hid in their houses, not daring to go out for fear of falling into the snow.
Those who have a little bit of means have already started preparing things, and people are scrambling for food everywhere.
As a wealthy family in the vicinity, Xia Yimei and her friends were in a very dangerous situation at that time.
Although they had lived in harmony in the past, they were outsiders in the county town and were the first to be bullied. In the countryside, they were the richest relatives. Once something happened, the whole village would definitely rely on Xia Yimei for help, so in order to ensure safety.
Before the second snow fell, the family packed up and left overnight, leaving behind only some food that was difficult to carry with them, but it was presumed that it had been taken away.
The snow never stopped falling on their way to the capital, and it kept getting deeper and deeper, and the weather was getting colder day by day. If they hadn't been well prepared, with plenty of food and charcoal in their carts, they would have frozen to death on the way.
If they were still in such a state despite their adequate preparations, then the people who stayed in the villages and the county town would probably have had an even harder time. The snow was so heavy that even if the houses were fine, people would have been frozen to death or starved to death.
"I don't know, but I saw a few people with northern accents on the road a few days ago. They were dressed in rags and looked like disaster victims." Xia Yimei shook her head and said with some regret.
"Have the victims arrived yet?" Xu Zhou frowned.
"Well, they have appeared now. I estimate that in ten days or half a month, there will be a large number of victims." Xia Yimei estimated.
Xuzhou frowned and said nothing. Although he felt sorry for the victims, he had no other options. Although he was a prince of the royal palace, he didn't have much money or power. All he could do was to give out some porridge.
Xia Yimei sat aside, seemingly in a daze, but in fact she was looking at the system in her mind. She didn't know what bug had happened to the system. It had just sent her here, and before she could say anything, the system disappeared.
Only this panel is left, which can be used to check the major and minor events in this world, as well as some future trends, but it is very useless.
However, if you just farm and sell things, it is still enough, such as which year there will be drought, which year there will be a good harvest, and which year there will be a war.
What policies were promulgated and when, what major events will happen in the future, etc.
Xia Yimei avoided many dangers in this way, and even when she had nothing to do, she could read the history of the Great Zhou to relieve her boredom.
But looking at the current panel, Xia Yimei's face looked a little ugly.
Originally, I thought that the blizzard and severe cold were just natural disasters, but I didn't expect that they were also mixed with man-made disasters. Someone actually misappropriated the money for disaster relief, which caused the snow disaster to become so serious and so many people died.
"Zhou Chong, do you know Qin Yu?" Xia Yimei asked with a grim expression.
"Qin Yu?" Xuzhou raised his eyebrows again, with a hint of surprise on his face. He didn't know where Xia Yimei heard this name from. Of course he knew Qin Yu, the leader of the Jinyiwei, a ruthless and heartless lackey of the royal family.
"Where did you hear about him? Did he bully you?" Xu Zhou asked with a frown, a hint of doubt in his voice. Although Qin Yu was not a good person, he didn't seem to have a hobby of oppressing the people. Logically speaking, he should have no intersection with Yimei.
"No." Xia Yimei shook her head and made up what she had just seen.
