Chapter 68: Preparation

I don't know if Old Man Cui believed Cui Yuanjian's words or what, but he didn't bother them later. The brothers and sisters of the Cui family are even more happy and leisurely, busy picking flowers every day. Sometimes Uncle Guo will be caught strong, and every time he comes back, he pretends to have a sore back, and confidently asks Cui Yuankang to beat his back, and asks Cui Yuanjian and Xiaoxiao to cook for him, and sometimes he has to order food when he is interested.

Cui Xiaoxiao plans to pick more flowers to dry and prepare, after all, the flowering period of peach blossoms and pear blossoms is only a few days, and there is nothing if you miss it. The peach and pear trees that had been moved into the space had risen to a height of more than two feet in just a few days, and at this rate, it was estimated that they would be able to blossom and bear fruit in less than two months. Having these dried flowers can also give cover to the flowers of the space.

Now that it is spring, it is not easy for Cui Xiaoxiao to buy almonds to boil rouge stock solution, so Cui Xiaoxiao uses rapeseed oil and sesame oil instead.

Boil for more than two hours every day, for more than 20 days in a row, the pink peach blossoms also show her domineering, and the rouge crude oil is so red that it turns black.

Pour out the stock solution and leave the dregs for later use.

Another pot is heated with rapeseed oil and beeswax to boil into a milky white emulsion, then add mung bean flour, rice flour, flour, corn flour, mix well, add the rouge stock solution, and the remaining flower residue is also added, according to the amount of rouge stock solution can be adjusted into different colors of rouge.

Stirring constantly, the flower residue and powdery particles that are not completely dissolved will float up, take them out, and then box them, dry them, and the rouge is ready.

Cui Xiaoxiao tuned three colors, one is the common red, one is peach, and the other is a pale pink that is close to colorless.

The rouge box is a specially bought painted water dot peach blossom white porcelain rouge box, one costs 20 yuan, Cui Xiaoxiao bought 20 pieces, and when he paid for it, he felt that his liver was hurting. If you can't earn it back, you will lose a lot of money, and Cui Xiaoxiao, who has never taken money seriously unconsciously, has become a small money fan, his hobby is silver, and his wish is to be a pixiu (only in but not out).

People rely on clothes and horses to rely on saddles, and if the product wants to sell at a good price, it must also have a good packaging.

Cui Xiaoxiao gave full play to his sweet-mouthed and cheeky specialties, and took advantage of selling cuteness in the blink of an eye, took a turn in the best rouge shop in Beigang Town, asked the price clearly, and consciously walked out of the store before the guy was impatient and ready to sweep Cui Xiaoxiao out of the house.

The rouge made by the brothers and sisters of the Cui family is not bad compared with the two-two-to-one box from the point of view of fineness, if it is not sold at a good price because of the poor packaging, Cui Xiaoxiao feels that he will not only have a liver pain at that time, but also a heart that hurts to death.

The soap box was bought by Uncle Guo when he drove to other towns, although there are carpenters in the village, but the people in a village don't have so many secrets. If the old man Cui knew, he would have one more time of right and wrong, and the Cui brothers and sisters would not have saved that money.

After you have a product, you have to go to find out the enemy's situation, oh not to do market research.

The Qinglou before the time was quiet, and the Qinglou, which had reversed day and night, could finally take a breath during the day after a busy night. After a tiring night, the girl in the Qinglou who had a benefactor stayed overnight, slept sweetly with the gold master, and the turtle slave and the maidservant who were busy soliciting guests worked hard all night and were making up for sleep.

After a while, the people of the Qinglou got up one after another, and after lunch, the day of the Qinglou people began.

The maidservants served the girls to groom and dress up, and the turtle slaves took the opportunity to listen to the stories and also run errands for the girls.

The three brothers and sisters of the Cui family took a fancy to a turtle slave, who often haunted the best restaurant Yuexiang Pavilion in Guojia Town, the best rouge shop Weixin Pavilion, and the best dim sum shop Yipinxiang to help the girls buy things.

If you can come to these places to buy things, you can talk to a girl with a head and a face in Zuixiang House, and she is indeed a good candidate for cooperation.

After choosing the candidates, the Cui family brothers and sisters sharpened their knives and Huo Huo Xiang Qinglou.

On this day, three boys in silk robes came to the town, two large and one small, the eldest was about four and a half feet tall, and he was of moderate stature, about thirteen or fourteen years old. The one of his age was only an inch shorter, and the youngest was less than three feet tall.

After the three of them dressed up, Cui Xiaoxiao and others, the three of them wore Cui Xiaoxiao's special ten-centimeter wood-soled soap boots, and used two layers of heightened insoles in the shoes, and their height was 15 centimeters taller, and they wore a few more layers of clothes so that their bodies would not look thin.

Cui Xiaoxiao also used homemade cosmetics and put on a simple makeup, her eyebrows, eyes, and skin color changed, and her height, fatness, and appearance were different from the Cui brothers and sisters.

The clothes on their bodies were made by the mother of the Cui family brothers and sisters before their deaths, maybe the Cui family brothers and sisters' mothers knew that they would die soon, and actually made all the clothes of their brothers and sisters from childhood to adulthood.

I also embroidered flowers on the silk clothes prepared for Cui Yuankang and Cui Yuanjian to go to the private school, the embroidery is very good, and the green bamboo on the clothes seems to have spirituality, so that people can feel its verdant and upright.

"Can we sit down here, officer?" The three brothers and sisters of the Cui family walked into a teahouse.

The man's name was Double Happiness, and when he heard the sound, he raised his head, and when he looked around, he saw that there was indeed no empty table, so he nodded.

After the Cui family brothers and sisters sat down, they asked for a pot of tea and listened to the storytelling.

It turned out that the turtle slave liked to listen to and hear stories, and would come to this teahouse every day to listen to stories.

"This guest officer, we are sitting next to you, there is a lot of trouble, this cup of tea will be regarded as my reparation." Cui Yuanjian poured a cup of tea and handed it to the double happiness.

"No annoyance, you're welcome." Shuangxi saw that Cui Yuanjian was so polite, and he also took the teacup.

Cui Yuanjian saw him take the teacup, his face was happy, and he continued, "You also love this storytelling? ”

Shuangxi seemed to be interested, and looked at Cui Yuanjian carefully, "You look at Miansheng, aren't you a regular visitor here?" ”

Although he had already thought about what to do at home, Cui Yuanjian was the first time to do such a thing after all, he couldn't help but be a little nervous, his palms were slightly sweaty, he lowered his head and took a sip of tea, stabilized his mind, and said, "I also heard that the storyteller here is good, so I just came here today." ”

"Then you've come to the right place." Double happiness," this storyteller claims to be the second in this Beigang Town, and no one dares to call it the first. ”

"Oh? Looks like you're pretty well researched. So what do you think of this 'Yanwang sweeping the north'? ”

"I won't tell you the truth, I like Wei Lan, the entourage of King Yan the most, but he is the person who serves by King Yan's side, and in the end, he can fight side by side with King Yan, and he can also give advice to King Yan" The more he spoke, the more excited he became, and he could see that he really liked that Wei Lan.

"I also like this Wei Lan very much, it is really worth his life to get out of slavery and become a general side by side with King Yan." Cui Yuanjian said. (To be continued)
