After crossing, I was forced to hold on to my thighs and build a kingdom

In addition to pearl powder, Jinchu also bought ginseng. These two items cost nearly eight taels of silver, and the remaining ingredients cost only two taels of silver in total.

Since she was doing it, she wanted to make a ginseng pearl beauty cream in addition to the pearl whitening powder.

In the following days, Huizhen followed Jinchu and began the busy process of making flour.

The pearls were first boiled on low heat for an hour, and then two girls each held a stone mortar and crushed the boiled pearls bit by bit until they were ground into fine powder.

Then use two layers of fine kudzu cloth to sift the ground pearl powder little by little. At the same time, add clean water to the coarser particles. Use the water flying method to continue grinding repeatedly in clean water until the pearl powder is ground into a fine and smooth powder and completely dissolved in water.

This step alone took the two of them a whole day to complete. Jin Chu poured out the clean water on top of the pearl powder, and left the rest in a ventilated place to allow the water and powder to separate.

After finishing these, she gave Huizhen a few more instructions and then hurried to pick up Zhaoer from school.

When Jinchu brought Zhaoer home, Huizhen had almost finished the work at hand. The two girls were very tired after a busy day. They made a simple dinner and went to bed early after eating.

The next day after sending Zhao'er back, Jinchu and Huizhen started to develop pearl beauty powder again.

After about four or five days of hard work, I finally managed to produce forty-six blocks of rose pearl beauty powder, fifty-seven bottles of ginseng pearl cream, and one hundred and eight blocks of moisturizing cleansing soap.

After being busy for six or seven days, Jinchu and Huizhen couldn't help laughing when they saw the fruits of their labor in front of them, which exuded a faint fragrance.

"Can we take it to the beauty shop to sell it tomorrow?" Huizhen looked at the bottles and jars in front of her with excitement, her eyes shining.

"hold on."

"Why wait any longer?"

Impatient Huizhen glared at Jinchu in confusion. "I've used the powders, ointments, and soaps from Yangyanfang before, and even with the bottles we bought this time, none of them can compare to the powders, ointments, and soaps we make. We worked so hard to make these great things, what are you going to keep them for if we don't sell them?"

Jin Chu smiled and soothed her, "Don't worry, Huizhen. What I mean is that we should first test the effects of these newly made products ourselves. Only when we have a good idea of ​​their effectiveness can we negotiate the price with the owner of the beauty salon, right?"

"That's true. Look at my impatience."

Huizhen slapped her forehead sheepishly. "Jin'er, you're indeed calm and thoughtful. No wonder my mother always asks me to learn from you. So, how long do you think we should try it out before we can sell it?"

The skin's metabolism cycle is 28 days. Jinchu thought about it and discussed with Huizhen: "Why don't we try it ourselves for a month? If the effect is good, we can go to the beauty shop to discuss business, how about it?"

Huizhen felt that this was a long time, but she always trusted Jin'er, and this set of bottles and jars were made by Jin'er. In addition, Jin'er always acted calmly and measuredly, so she suppressed her anxiety and agreed to Jinchu's suggestion.

Jinchu looked at Huizhen's face, which was in good shape but a little gloomy, and said with a smile, "Tomorrow we'll go to the beauty salon to get to know her so we can discuss business next month."

"Just to make yourself familiar?" Huizhen asked in surprise.

Jin Chu nodded and smiled meaningfully: "Yes, let's get to know each other! Tomorrow, we must let the female employee in the store look at you and me more, so that she can remember our faces clearly, so that we can discuss business next month!"

After sending Zhao'er off the next day, the two girls went to the most famous beauty salon in Lincheng together.

Because Jinchu came to the store not long ago and bought several bottles of cosmetics, and Jinchu was good-looking, many female employees in the store remembered her, especially the female employee who had received Jinchu, who was even more impressed by her.

When Jinchu and Huizhen came in today, the waitress greeted them with a smile: "I haven't seen you for a few days. You look even more beautiful now."

Jinchu smiled and thanked her, pointing at Huizhen and saying, "This is my sister. She's been busy at home lately, and her face has become darker and rougher. Sister, come and see her."

Jinchu took the waitress's hand and asked her to take a closer look at Huizhen's skin. The waitress smiled and comforted her, "This girl has a good foundation and she's young. If she takes care of these blemishes for a few months, they should be fair and smooth again!"

"Then sister, can you please look at my face too?"

Jin Chu unceremoniously thrust his face in front of the waitress, complaining softly, "My stomach isn't very good. I wasn't paying attention a few days ago and caught a cold. I've been bedridden for a month or so, and now my face is pale and haggard, dull and lifeless."

"How can you exaggerate like that, young lady? You are naturally beautiful. Although your complexion is a little worse, as long as you take good care of yourself, you will be as flawless as a white jade in just three or two months!" The female shopkeeper looked at the girl in front of her and burst out laughing.

"Okay, thanks to my sister! We'll take good care of it after we get back. I hope that when we come back next time, my sister will see a different us."

Seeing that her goal had been achieved, Jin Chu took a step back and said with a smile, "Since we're here today, sister, why don't you recommend a hand balm to us? We can't let you treat us for nothing, right?"

"You are indeed a beautiful and kind-hearted girl. I just applied a new hand cream yesterday. It has a pleasant fragrance and is smooth and moisturizing. Why don't you try it?"

After an incense stick of time, Jinchu and Huizhen walked out of the beauty shop with two bottles of hand cream, with the female waiter saying "Come back another day" to say farewell.

"Jin'er, you are such a clever ghost!"

Huizhen couldn't suppress the joy in her heart. Her big eyes curved into crescent shapes. She put her arms around Jinchu's shoulders, her tone full of praise.

When leaving the house, Huizhen was still confused. She didn't know why Jinchu insisted on bringing her to the beauty salon again. Now, after everything that happened, if she still didn't understand Jinchu's intentions, then she would be considered a blockhead - she would never understand!

Jinchu smiled slightly and pulled Huizhen into the alley next to him.

Suddenly, there were fewer people on the road, and Huizhen felt relieved. She couldn't wait to continue the previous topic: "Jin'er, that female waiter saw you and me clearly today. Even the two sisters next to us came over to take a look!"

"Well, I saw it too!"

Jin Chu was not surprised by this result. If two more people saw it, it would be more beneficial for his future sales of pearl powder.

"Who is that waitress? Today, I think you're just looking at her. If we come to discuss business in the future, what if she's not here?"

Jin Chu turned to Hui Zhen and explained, "Since you weren't around a while ago, I came to Yangyan Shop a few more times. I managed to find out a bit about the waitress who entertained us today. She's the owner's sister-in-law, basically the deputy owner of Yangyan Shop! I hope she remembers us today. Next time we come to discuss business, we can use her connections to find the owner of Yangyan Shop."

"Great! This way, she will be our most powerful witness! When you go to the shopkeeper to discuss business again, it will be much easier!" Huizhen clapped her hands and gave Jinchu a thumbs up, "You are worthy of it!"

"You don't have to be so flattering!" Jin Chu put away his smile and sternly instructed Hui Zhen, "The preliminary preparations for the beauty salon have been completed. From now on, we both need to take good care of our skin and skin every day, and strive to appear in the best condition in a month. This is both a requirement and a task!"

"As ordered!"

Huizhen raised her hand, a serious expression on her face. "In the days ahead, I will definitely take good care of my face and strive to appear at the beauty salon looking radiant in a month."
