I just want to rob you of your luck

Concubine Deng almost laughed out of anger: "Lin, is this what you call a good thing? Why should we do business together and split the profits 30% and 70%? Sorry, I don't want to be a sucker, you should find someone else."

Lin Jiuer still smiled: "Don't worry, listen to me. I am actually trying to save some money for the prince. You also know the situation of our house. If we rely on the prince's salary, sooner or later we won't be able to maintain even this superficial appearance."

After she said that, Concubine Deng really didn't know what to say.

"Then how can you be sure that the beauty cream made with your recipe will sell well? There are many shops in Shangjing City that sell beauty creams, and many of them are time-honored brands.

Are you sure your product can compete with others?"

Lin Jiuer said shamelessly: "This is a secret recipe passed down from my ancestors. Don't worry about the product effect.

It's just that I'm not very good at business, and I don't have many connections in Beijing, otherwise why would I come to you for cooperation? Isn't it good for me to make money on my own? "

Naturally, the identity of a disciple of the Valley of Divine Doctors cannot be publicized casually. Lin Jiuer only told others that her ancestors were from a medical family.

Lin Jiuer lowered her voice and said, "Let's take advantage of the fact that the princess is under house arrest to get this done, and make money quietly without telling anyone. Then the Seventh Prince will be grateful to you."

Concubine Deng was finally persuaded. The reason why she didn't dare to cooperate with Lin Jiuer was because she was afraid that the prince's wife would find out and make things difficult for her.

But behind Lin is the Seventh Prince, who is the boss of this mansion, so perhaps this may be feasible.

Making money quietly neither offends the princess nor pleases the Seventh Prince.

Isn’t this the best of both worlds?

Her tone was still calm: "You make some first. I want to see the effect. If the product is good, I have a cosmetics shop and can help sell it."

Lin Jiuer happily agreed: "Okay, let's do this, do you know of a pharmacy? I need some medicinal herbs and raw materials. Here is the list and a silver note of 1,000 taels. Please help me buy some materials."

Deng looked at the silver note with a complicated expression. She remembered that when Lin Jiuer first came, she was still wearing coarse cotton clothes.

"Is this something His Highness gave you? He really dotes on you."

Lin Jiuer smiled modestly: "It's okay, don't worry, I will say a few good words for you in the future."

Deng was speechless. No one would believe her.

However, it seems that His Highness did acquiesce to Lin Jiuer's idea of ​​looking for her to cooperate in making money.

Deng took the banknotes and the list of materials and immediately arranged for her trusted men to go out and purchase them.

Lin Jiuer chatted for a few more minutes before she stood up to say goodbye and returned to Qingzhu Courtyard.

Deng was very efficient and in the afternoon he sent someone to buy a large amount of medicinal herbs and various other materials.

Lin Jiuer had someone put the things in the side hall she had vacated in Qingzhu Courtyard, and then she made a few doses of beauty cream herself.

She gave a few to Concubine Deng, who tried them herself first. Sure enough, after a few days, she found that her skin became much whiter and smoother.

This time, she finally readily agreed to cooperate with Lin Jiuer in selling beauty cream.

She also arranged for her two trusted maids to come and help. After a week of hard work, they finally made a batch of beauty cream.

At the same time, a higher-end product was also developed, specifically for wealthy ladies and young ladies.

Lin Jiuer also specially made some samples as gifts and trial products, and named the beauty cream Snow Skin Cream and the high-end product Jade Face Cream.

She discussed it with Concubine Deng and decided to set the price of Snow Skin Cream at ten taels of silver each and the price of Jade Face Cream at fifty taels of silver each.

Once these two beauty creams were put on sale, they immediately attracted the attention of some women from aristocratic families. Combined with Concubine Deng's marketing methods, these two products soon became hot-selling skin care products that were passed on by word of mouth among the noble ladies in Beijing.

Not only did they make back the costs in just a few days, but they also earned a lot of money. Deng was now in high spirits and actively helped purchase raw materials and promote products.

Zhou Yichen didn't expect that Lin Jiuer could actually make money from this. He couldn't do much, but he could provide her with convenience.

So they asked people to vacate the yard next to Qingzhu Courtyard and use it as a workshop for Lin Jiuer, and arranged for a few servants to help her, as they couldn't let a "pregnant woman" be busy all the time.

Now Lin Jiuer’s beauty cream can finally be produced in large quantities.

However, she was working in full swing, and Hu Yunshao's half-month confinement was about to end.

While she was still under house arrest, Chunyu secretly went to deliver a letter to her. She heard with her own ears that Lin Jiuer told the Seventh Prince that she had earned more than 10,000 taels from the beauty cream.

Hu Yunshao didn't expect that Lin Jiuer had such ability, and his eyes turned red with jealousy.

At the same time, she was somewhat dissatisfied with Concubine Deng. She didn't expect that during her confinement, Deng had hooked up with Lin Jiuer and helped her make so much money. Did she still have her as the prince's consort in her eyes?

This time, Hu Yunshao was no longer low-key. As soon as he came out, he informed the woman in the backyard that he would visit her every morning and evening.

Lin Jiuer was counting the banknotes when she received the news.

She took out a stack and placed it on the table in front of Zhou Yichen.

"This is for His Highness."

Zhou Yichen looked at the banknotes and was very impressed with Lin Jiuer. She actually earned so much money in just half a month.

He counted them: "Ten thousand taels? Are these all for me?"

Lin Jiuer couldn't help but want to laugh when she saw Zhou Yichen's cute look.

"Yes, you are a prince after all. Don't you need silver to watch a play or drink with your colleagues?"

Zhou Yichen put the banknote in front of Lin Jiuer again.

"I don't need it, and I'm too lazy to deal with those people. You should keep it."

Lin Jiuer was speechless. Zhou Yichen would come back and stay by her side after finishing his shift every day. He really didn't socialize with his colleagues much.

She sighed: "Well, I'll keep it for now and I'll tell you when I need it."

"By the way, Hu Yunshao requires us to go to the morning and evening prayer hall every day. I guess she wants to target me and set rules for me. Your Highness, you must protect me when the time comes."

Zhou Yichen looked at Lin Jiuer with a helpless smile: "I feel like you can handle it without my help."

"That's different. I have a tool like you, so it would be a waste if I don't use it."

"I know. How could I let her bully you?"

For several days in a row, Lin Jiuer was not harassed when she went to Hu Yunshao's courtyard to pay her respects in the morning. On the contrary, she chatted with everyone in a very friendly manner.

He insisted on keeping everyone in Cuiyun Courtyard for an hour before letting them leave.

This made Lin Jiuer a little puzzled. Thinking that something must be wrong when things were abnormal, Lin Jiuer began to pay close attention.

Sure enough, I found that every time I was at Hu Yunshao's place, I could smell a faint soothing fragrance.

With her superb medical skills, she naturally knew there was nothing wrong with the fragrance.

But the tea they drank every day was the same kind of black tea, which made Lin Jiuer realize it.

Several Chinese medicinal herbs are added to this tea, and the taste is very light, so most people cannot taste it.

And even if you taste it, you won’t find any problem, because this medicinal tea can indeed regulate the body and enhance physical fitness.

Just when combined with this tranquilizing incense, it becomes a medicine for promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis.

It is especially harmful to pregnant women, and the fetus will definitely be in danger if exposed for a long time.

Lin Jiuer sneered. It turned out to be directed at the fetus in her belly.

She actually dared to play with medicinal herbs under her nose. Since she was plotting a conspiracy, Lin Jiuer planned to play an open conspiracy against her.
