Dressed as a concubine instead of a concubine

After leaving the beauty shop, the eldest princess looked at Zhao Lanxue with some dissatisfaction.

"How can you help Meng Xiyue?"

Zhao Lanxue blinked her innocent eyes and said, "I didn't help her. I just really like those skin care products."

"Princess, as women, don't we all want to be beautiful? The products in the Beauty Shop are useful, so why don't we use them?"

"But she belongs to Nan Rongzhi and is our enemy. We can't let her get ahead."

Nan Rongwan said unhappily.

"What's the big deal? It's just a small shop. It doesn't matter if it makes a fortune every day. The more famous her shop is, the more people will know about Master Mo Ran's business. It won't be bad for us."

Zhao Lanxue smiled and said, "Cousin, why do you still mind having sex with a businessman?"

"I don't mind her at all. She is not worthy of my attention at all."

Nan Rongwan snorted coldly, "It's just that she just came to the capital and she made such a big fuss. This princess just can't stand it."

"Cousin, she is courting death by doing business. Let her do whatever she wants. However, these skin care products developed by Doctor Bai are really useful. You are getting married soon, so you must take good care of yourself."

Talking about her marriage, Nan Rongwan showed some shyness, "That's true, the most important thing right now is my marriage."

"Okay, this princess is going back to the palace, you should go back home too."

"Yes."

Zhao Lanxue leaned over to see her off, and only raised her head after the carriage had gone far away.

The clear innocence in his eyes turned into a hint of mockery.

Her eldest cousin is willful, ruthless and cruel, but her brain is still as stupid as ever.

She turned around and looked in the direction of the beauty salon again, muttering to herself.

"Meng Xiyue, I hope you won't let me down."

……

Meng Xiyue was busy all day. After checking the accounts in the evening, she found that the total income for the day was 80,000 taels. After deducting the costs, the net profit was 30,000 taels.

Seeing this number, Nan Rongzhi was shocked, "How can it be so many?"

Even though he was a prince, he couldn't help but be frightened. The thirty thousand taels were almost as much as the tax revenue of a county.

"Today, there are more people applying for VIP cards. There won't be so many in the future."

Meng Xiyue calculated that under normal circumstances, the shop could earn about one or two thousand taels a day.

However, this is already one of the top shops in Beijing, making a fortune every day, and that is no exaggeration.

"These are originally prepared for those wealthy ladies. The price is high and the profit is big, so you can make money quickly."

This is similar to modern luxury goods, which are not very good things. They just represent status and allow rich people to have somewhere to spend their money, thus making the money circulate.

In ancient times, there was no brand effect or concept of luxury goods. What they valued was practicality, and skin care products just happened to meet their needs.

"By the way, how's the dessert shop going?"

"It will be finished tomorrow. Let's go take a look."

"it is good."

When Prince Zhennan received the 20% interest from the Beauty Shop, he was a little stunned.

He guessed that skin care products would make money, but he didn't expect it to be so much.

The money he earned on that day was as much as the profit of his other shops for two or three months, and it was still a prosperous shop.

When he learned from the servants that Meng Xiyue had obtained a VIP card to earn so much money, he couldn't help but admire her business talent.

In his eyes, this VIP card was just a way to get something for nothing, but it worked wonders for those ladies.

Just because they can't resist something that can make them beautiful.

He is really looking forward to it more and more now.

“Nanrong Country may really be able to usher in a new life.”

next day

Meng Xiyue and Nan Rongzhi came to the dessert shop together.

"You partitioned off the shop?"

"Yes, that part is used to buy new products, this side is for snacks, and the second floor is for private rooms."

This shop is somewhat similar to the style of today's afternoon tea shops, with simple and elegant decoration.

"I'm just a little worried about what containers to choose for drinks and snacks."

This is also the reason why Meng Xiyue delayed the opening of the business. Nowadays, plastic products are both convenient and beautiful, but they cannot be produced in this era.

If we still use ceramics, they will be clumsy and ugly, and wooden products will be even worse.

"Desserts not only taste good, but also look beautiful. If they are packaged, it is better to use glass. Drinks can also be served in glass cups."

Nan Rongzhi thought about it and felt that this was the most suitable thing.

"I've thought about it, but colored glass is too expensive, and there's not enough of it. It's not suitable to use it in a shop."

The colored glass nowadays is all natural and extremely rare. Only royal nobles have some of it. She doesn't want to use the money she just earned to buy those colored glasses.

"It would be nice if there was glass."

"Glass?"

Nan Rongzhi's eyes lit up, "Yes, we can make glass."

"I can't." Meng Xiyue shook her head with an innocent look on her face. If she knew how to do it, she would have done it long ago.

"You won't, but I will."

Nan Rongzhi was very happy. "When I was a child, I was adopted by an old grandfather for a few years. He made glass. He wanted me to inherit his business, so he taught me the method of making glass."

This is also the only thing Nan Rongzhi knows besides guns and artillery shells.

"Then why did you become a police officer?"

"Becoming a police officer is my dream. Besides, my grandfather passed away a few years later, and his kiln factory was taken over by other relatives."

She was an adopted orphan, only eleven or twelve years old at the time, and was not capable of managing the kiln factory at all.

"Then let's quickly find a kiln factory to try it out."

Meng Xiyue couldn't wait any longer, but Nan Rongzhi held her back.

"I'll write down the recipe, and you can go find the master to try it out."

Nan Rongzhi's face turned pale, "I can't do this. It would be bad if it arouses suspicion from others."

After all, she grew up in Nanrong Country, and everything she learned was under the watchful eyes of the public. It was inevitable that she would be noticed when she suddenly acquired such a skill.

Meng Xiyue understood what she meant. It was indeed not suitable for her to do this personally.

"Okay, then write it down and I'll work with the King of Zhennan."

Almost all the kiln factories in Nanrong Kingdom are under the name of Prince Zhennan. If she wants to make glass, he will inevitably find out.

It is better to take the initiative to show goodwill and seek cooperation.

Moreover, the emergence of glass will bring greater profits, which she cannot bear by herself, and someone must share it with her.

"I don't understand business matters. Just make the arrangements yourself."

Nan Rongzhi gave her the greatest trust.

Having solved the problem at hand, Meng Xiyue was very happy. She made some desserts by herself and ate them with Nan Rongzhi.

"Take the rest back to the Queen."

"My mother is looking forward to you bringing her snacks every day. The food cooked by the royal chef is not to her liking anymore."

Meng Xiyue completely controlled her mother with the help of desserts.
