Chapter 34: Return Visit (II)
The next morning, the Nineteenth Princess's Mansion wanted to celebrate the festival, the lights were colorful, and all the people were bathing and changing clothes, dressed neatly. Even Chief Wu changed into a new outfit.
Someone was sent out early to watch, and as soon as the Seventh Princess and her entourage were about to arrive, they would immediately line up to greet them!
Today, the nineteenth princess also changed into the most exquisite clothes, her hair was neatly combed, and there was a golden hairpin stuck in the back of her head. The face is thinly powdered, and the lips are lightly touched, which looks dignified and delicate! The female guards behind her are all in a strong suit, although there is no armor, but everyone is a close-fitting strong suit, showing a toned and tall figure! Even the subordinates were neatly dressed and stood behind the samurai in good spirits.
All the personnel of the Nineteenth Princess's Mansion, including the princess, were a total of 387 people, and now 385 people have gathered. Only Zhu Xiaobao and Ying Xiuxiu did not come! (Originally, there were more than 200 people in the princess's mansion, but since Ji Zhihui opened a shop, some more people have been added!) )
In fact, Zhu Xiaobao basically didn't sleep much last night, and he was busy all night, and now it's time to hurry up and sleep for a while!
At half of the hour, it was almost half past ten o'clock in the morning, and the phoenix of the seven princesses arrived, and the seven princesses were named the king of Rong, and they had their own phoenixes! Since it is an official return visit, the Seventh Princess is also very solemn today, and there are nearly 100 guards and subordinates behind her!
After getting off the phoenix drive, the seventh princess also smiled, and the nineteenth sister Xia Zhen'er was also attentive enough, and actually hung a huge banner at the gate, which read: Welcome to King Rong's Chitose!
Today, the seventh princess is also in formal wear, with a phoenix crown on her head, which is only available to King Rong, and other princes and princesses don't have it, and they can't take it casually!
"Nineteenth princess Xia Zhen'er, welcome King Rong's thousand-tose!" The nineteenth princess hurriedly greeted her first. This is the rule, first it is the gift of the monarch and the minister, and then the sisterhood!
"Huh! Excuse me! It's the first time I've seen the nineteenth sister! Xia Zerong smiled and hugged the nineteenth princess and looked at Xia Zhen'er carefully! This nineteenth sister is really very beautiful, and there is innocence and weakness in her eyes, which makes people feel good at once!
"The seventh sister is very happy to come to the little sister's house in person!" The nineteenth sister hurriedly said in a coquettish voice.
"Hmmm! What a delicate beauty! Of all the princesses I see, you are the most beautiful princess! In comparison, my sister is an old man! Xia Zerong couldn't help but sigh after seeing it.
"Where? The seventh sister is in her prime, famous all over the world, and has always been a model admired by the little sister and an example to learn! Xia Zhen'er said with a red face and a laugh. Xia Zhen'er didn't expect the seventh sister to be so easy-going, and she also smelled the fragrance of rose soap from the seventh princess!
The seventh princess also smelled the unique fragrance of magnolia flower soap on Xia Zhen'er's body, the two looked at each other and smiled, and the seventh princess pulled Xia Zhen'er into the princess's mansion together!
Entering the mansion, the seventh princess couldn't help but be a little surprised, Xia Zhen'er's mansion was even more humble than she thought! The number of people is also pitiful. Although the Nineteenth Princess's Mansion is very clean, it is much more shabby compared to other princes and princesses!
However, to the surprise of the Seventh Princess, the two hundred female guards behind Xia Zhen'er were all in good spirits, and they all had a very confident and proud look on their faces. The martial manager on the right hand side made the seventh princess a little surprised, this person is definitely a master! And it's the ones who have been killed countless times!
"You are the Wu Yue who is going to compete with the high-speed rail flower?" The seventh princess suddenly asked as she passed by Wu Yue's side.
"Yes! Chitose Rongwang! Wu Yue was also taken aback, and hurriedly clasped her fists and saluted.
"Are you sure?" Xia Zerong asked with a smile, Wu Yue's age was much younger than she expected, so Xia Zerong couldn't help but ask again!
"As long as it's a fair competition, I can win!" Wu Yue said very confidently.
"Huh! Don't worry, your contest will be held in my house. But that high-speed rail flower has some real skills! Xia Zerong said softly, and then whispered to Wu Yue: "But I hope you can win!" ”
"Princess Xie Qi!" Wu Yue looked at the Seventh Princess very gratefully, and said again.
Xia Zerong smiled, and then smiled at Ji Zhihan, who was standing aside: "Mr. Ji, the tea you sold me is not very good!" ”
"Huh? No, no, princess, it's good to get used to it! Ji Zhihui was a little confused, of course he knew that his tea, and the so-called best in the shop were indeed not very good!
Xia Zhen'er, the nineteenth princess on the side, was also slightly hot on her face, but she didn't expect the seventh princess to point out the shortcomings of tea in person! hurriedly said: "Seventh sister, please sit in the living room, I will let the next person serve tea!" ”
Of course, when they entered the living room, the guards and subordinates did not follow up, and there were only a few people left in the living room. This time, Xia Zhen'er didn't dare to serve green tea, so she ordered her subordinates to bring the best tea on the market! And then I started talking to the Seven Princesses!
And the steward outside the living room is counting the gifts sent by the seventh princess, this time the gift sent by the seventh princess is not light, two gold beads, a pair of jade ruyi, as well as the incense powder and rouge used by the seventh princess, as well as twenty jars of good wine. And two hundred taels of gold! It seems that the seventh princess knows Xia Zhen'er's situation, these two hundred taels of gold can make Xia Zhen'er's hands much easier!
It didn't take long for Duanmuqi and Manager Wu in the living room to find an excuse to run out. There's no way that the two princesses have already started to talk about the experience of using soap, and then they will talk about topics such as bathing and changing clothes, so the two big men are very interested in running out!
If you want to say that women put aside politics and talk about beauty and beauty, they will immediately become very popular! The seventh princess doesn't look like a Rong prince at all! On the contrary, she was talking enthusiastically about the soap that Xia Zhen'er gave her. Speaking of which, the Seventh Princess has been fascinated by this soap for the past two days, but this thing is used too quickly! It's no wonder that she takes a bath twice a day, and she has to wash her face and hands before and after meals, so the usage rate is super high!
"Yes, Seventh Sister! I'm also used to it, and the original fragrant pancreas is no longer used! There's no comparison! Xia Zhen'er also responded positively.
"Hmmm! Nineteenth sister, I have a question, is there any incense powder in that soap? The Seventh Princess finally couldn't help but ask first.
"Yes! Originally, the fragrance of the soap we produced was too light, but the fragrance powder of the fiefdom specialty of the seventh sister became very different! This is the most perfect result! Xia Zhen'er said very frankly, didn't she just want the seventh princess to talk about this topic!
"Oh! No wonder, I feel very familiar and familiar with it! The seventh princess said a little abruptly, but she was still quite proud in her heart, after all, with the specialty of her own fiefdom, she could make a perfect soap!
"Yes, yes! I still want to cooperate with Seventh Sister for this matter! I just don't know if the seventh sister is willing to carry the little sister! Xia Zhen'er immediately took over the conversation.
"Oh? Tell me about it! The Seventh Princess looked at Xia Zhen'er with great interest and asked.
"Hmmm! It was the seventh sister who provided me with incense powder and other raw materials, and I handed over half of the soap to the seventh sister for distribution! In this way, I and the seventh sister benefited, I don't know what the seventh sister thinks? Xia Zhen'er asked tentatively.
"How much can you make a month?" The Seventh Princess thought for a moment and asked.
"The yield of this soap is not high, but it is only a thousand pieces! Because the process is more complicated, 1,000 yuan is already the upper limit! Xia Zhen'er seemed to think about it seriously, and then said softly. In fact, the processing of this thing is extremely simple, not to mention a thousand, even tens of thousands are not a difficult task. But Zhu Xiaobao takes into account that scarcity is expensive, and Xia Zhen'er does not have too strong strength, once it becomes popular, it is easy to be hated and calculated!
"I want seventy percent! Nineteenth sister, it's not that my sister is greedy, not only do I have a store in the imperial city, but my fiefdom also needs to be sold. It's only 700 pieces of soap a month, which is too little for my own use! How much does a bar of soap cost? "The seventh princess has returned to her true character of a strong woman at this time, and her words are irrefutable at all!
"About a tael of silver!" Xia Zhen'er whispered.
"And how much are you going to sell it?" The Seventh Princess's eyes lit up, the cost of this thing is not high!
"A tael of gold! Do you think it's suitable or not? "Xia Zhen'er is a little unsure, after all, it has not been sold on the market!
"Two-two! Two taels of gold! If my estimate is good, even two taels of gold will be snatched up! "I didn't expect the Seventh Princess to directly price two taels of gold! It's a chance to grab money! You must know that it is very terrifying for a woman to launch a madness for the sake of beauty!
"Hmmm! I listen to the seventh sister! Xia Zhen'er said very well-behaved, but her heart trembled with shock, originally Zhu Xiaobao said that one or two gold had already made Xia Zhen'er think that he was crazy about money! I didn't expect the seventh sister to be even more ruthless here! Xia Zhen'er felt that she couldn't understand this world a little! Although I don't know the processing process of Zhu Xiaobao, the cost of that thing is definitely very cheap!
Xia Zhen'er didn't expect the cooperation with the Seventh Princess to be so smooth, although it was accounted for by the Seventh Princess, but with this relationship, Xia Zhen'er's situation was much more stable! In addition, the seventh princess has doubled the price, so that her net profit has increased a little!
Of course, as for how much the seventh princess can earn in this regard, then there is no need to worry about it. Don't look at the seventh princess is very rich, but her expenses are also very large! Maintaining those ships is a huge expense! Many of the ships are very old, they just haven't been updated! There are also horses, armor, weapons, if you want to spend money, you can spend thousands of taels of gold in a minute!
The seventh princess and the nineteenth princess chatted happily, and before they knew it, it was time for lunch. The nineteenth princess seemed to suddenly remember! Hurry up and invite the Seventh Princess to move and go to her streamside house for dinner!
"Creekside Residence? It's a very chic name! I just don't know what's so special? The seventh princess also smiled a little curiously.
"Hmmm! It's very special and the objects inside are all new! The food was also very special! The nineteenth princess smiled a little ostentatiously at this time. At this time, the relationship between the two seems to be much closer! The nineteenth princess is not so restrained!
"Good! Then I'll see! ”
