Chapter 8 Hot Spring Water Slippery Cream
Zhu Tong and Lei Heng didn't expect Chao Gai and others to cut off He Tao's ears, these two people knew that it was a little big, but despite this, the two still accepted Liu Zhenglong's invitation to go to Caiyun Tower to drink.
This time I was drinking, I didn't look for a companion, nor did I look for a singer, just three men drinking, and they looked a little embarrassed, but Zhu Tong and Lei Heng are both people who have seen the world, and they know that the more this is the case, the more things to discuss, it is obvious that it is definitely not so simple for this Yaoxian county to come to invite guests.
After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, Liu Zhenglong put down his wine glass and said: "It stands to reason that you should find a few singers to accompany you, but today I have something to discuss with the two of you, and it is inevitable that it will be a little abrupt to invite each other, and I hope you don't mind." ”
"Liu Daguan is too polite, both of us are rough people, we won't beat around the bush when we speak, it is useful to our two brothers, even if we open our mouths, we will do it well, and if we can't do it, we will try to help with it." Lei Heng is a straight man, he has always been straightforward, he knows that this big rich man must have something to ask for, otherwise he would not have invited him out to drink.
Zhu Tong is a wise person, he generally does not express his position easily, he looked at Liu Zhenglong quietly, wondering what kind of medicine was sold in the other party's gourd.
Liu Zhenglong said with a smile: "It's not a secret, I am the big boss of Xiaohuanggang, and I am not a wealthy person, but I didn't come to Yuncheng to do anything to kill people and steal goods, but to come here to make a fortune." On the ground in Yuncheng, many things are inseparable from the two, and today I hope to make a friend. ”
Making friends, strangers making friends, the simplest, most direct, and most effective must be real money, Liu Zhenglong sealed one hundred taels of gold to Zhu Tong and Lei Heng, and he believed that this gift was enough to show his sincerity.
One hundred taels of gold, that's not a small amount, Lei Heng's eyes were straight, Zhu Tong's heart was a lot heavier, and he always felt that this Liu Daguan was not simple, he was so generous, just to make a friend, it was indeed a bit too much.
Liu Zhenglong didn't want to say his purpose, he continued: "I have a little friendship with Cao Dahe, the county magistrate of Yaoxian County, and Shi Wenbin, the commander of Yuncheng County, and Liu Dahua, the head of Yaoxian County, is my eldest brother, and I hope to be closer in the future." ”
Zhu Tong was relieved at this time, it was obvious that Liu Zhenglong had not done anything to collude with officials and bandits at all, so he had nothing to worry about, he picked up his wine glass and said, "Liu Daguan, come and I will toast you." ”
"Cheers."
At this time, Liu Zhenglong didn't plan to hide it, he said with a smile: "Actually, it's nothing, I just opened a workshop in Yuncheng, but I will soon go back to the capital to participate in the martial arts." I'm afraid that I still need two people to help take care of one or two here, and I am very grateful here, of course, I won't let the two of you work in vain, 500 yuan per person per month. ”
No one thinks that there is little silver, although Zhu Tong firmly believes that this Liu Daguan must have other purposes, but he still chooses to make this friend, no matter what, it is possible to meet and not ask for a person who gives 500 yuan a month, since he has met it, how can he categorically refuse?
After the matter is settled, then it should be happy below, after all, they are all big men, and there is no need to pretend to be a non-chaotic Yanagishita Megumi. Leaving Zhu Tong and Lei Heng happy and happy, Liu Zhenglong is going to visit Bai Xiuying, the first flower in Yuncheng County, you must know that this is the concubine of Wenbin in the county order, and if you find this woman, the whole plan can be carried out logically.
For Liu Zhenglong, who came from later generations, it is not difficult to make soap, the key is how to make a hit and speculate the price, otherwise, the first pot of gold plan will be shattered, it is obvious that the problem of soap, with the help of Bai Xiuying, the Oiran is very suitable.
Since Bai Xiuying had dealings with Shi Wenbin, she basically rarely saw guests, and now there is a young and golden son, and she is cheap to the county official, so she made an exception to receive Liu Zhenglong.
Beauty cherishes heroes, seeing Liu Zhenglong, a tall and mighty beautiful man with a jade tree in the wind, Bai Xiuying's calm heart lake set off ripples, and red clouds suddenly appeared on her pretty face, containing thousands of autumn waves, and the big eyes of ten thousand styles seemed to tell the story.
Liu Zhenglong doesn't want to have anything to do with the woman of this county master, he still likes to go straight and solve problems with interests, this guy handed over a beautiful sandalwood brocade box, which looks very precious.
Bai Xiuying thought it was jewelry, so she asked the maid Ah Xiang to take it, and she said with a smile: "Liu Daguan is generous, I don't know what kind of treasure this is!" ”
"Unique, you can only be worthy of the white family, you will definitely like it."
(In the Song Dynasty, the Oiran with a high level of literary attainment was also called everyone.) )
Bai Xiuying motioned for Ah Xiang to open the brocade box and put it in front of her.
The brocade box was slowly opened by Ah Xiang, and the elegant fragrance suddenly floated inside, and there were four small square boxes inside, and each of the four square boxes had a beautiful woman pattern on it, which were written with sinking fish, falling geese, shy flowers, and closed moons.
The four small square boxes are decorated with the four beauties of ancient times, "shy flowers and closed moons, sinking fish and geese", which means that there must be different treasures in the square box. Bai Xiuying, who was full of curiosity in her heart, couldn't wait to open the first small square box with the sinking fish written on it, only to see that there was a pale green heart-shaped thing inside, and there was a quiet orchid fragrance from it, and the faint fragrance slowly filled the whole room, and the refreshing fragrance made this Oiran a little intoxicated.
"What is this baby?"
It's no wonder that Bai Xiuying doesn't know what kind of treasure this is, this is the first soap in the Great Song Dynasty, which was made by Liu Zhenglong on Xiaohuanggang, not to mention that this woman has not said it, even the high-ranking Daojun Emperor is in the clouds.
"Aren't you going to open the other three boxes and ask me questions?" Liu Zhenglong was not in a hurry at all, he said unhurriedly: "After reading it, you will definitely like this group of babies." ”
The second box is the Falling Goose, which is a round soap as white as jade, which looks like the bright moon in the sky. What comes from it is the quiet fragrance of lotus flowers, giving people a kind of artistic conception of wide cold and loneliness.
The third square box of shy flowers, inside it looks like a peony flower with a national color and fragrance, this fiery red rose, carefully looks like it is really a masterpiece of art. The aroma fills the whole room, but it does not dilute the orchid and lotus fragrance, but this rich aroma gives people a feeling of unattainable.
The fourth square box is the closed moon, which is a crescent-shaped soap, which looks very ordinary, but the faint fragrance of plum blossoms gives people a hollow valley orchid fragrance, which can be said to be wonderful.
The four different scents did not have the slightest flavor in the room, this aroma made Bai Xiuying intoxicated, this beauty lost herself a little for a while, and her eyes were a lot hotter when she looked at Liu Zhenglong, as if she wanted to devour the other party.
After a long time, Bai Xiuying was able to stabilize her mind, and she said with a smile: "Daguan, it won't be a simple sorting of the spices passed over from the big food and send it over." ”
Since the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, the merchants of the Persian Gulf began to do business in the Central Plains, and the Song Dynasty called them the Great Cannibals, these merchants transported the tea, porcelain, silk and other precious items of the Great Song Dynasty to the Persian Gulf, and sold many local things to the Central Plains, the most typical of which is spices. Of course, there are perfumes, glass, etc., but spices are more precious.
"No, this is the 'hot spring water slippery wash cream', when you take a bath, gently rub it on the ice muscle jade bone, not only moisturizing the skin, but also making you fragrant and charming." Liu Zhenglong couldn't think of what to name the soap for a while, and it seemed too old-fashioned to call it soap directly.
There is no woman who does not cherish her skin, and the more beautiful she is, the more she cherishes it. Bai Xiuying is twenty-four or five years old, and she is no longer young, and taking care of her skin is more attractive to this woman than gold, silver and jewelry.
Liu Zhenglong saw that Bai Xiuying's heart was moved, so he hit the railway while it was hot: "You can use it after taking a bath today, and feel if there is a feeling of 'hot spring water slippery and creamy', if you feel better, please give this baby a name tomorrow, this is my exclusive secret recipe, and I also made it myself, I hope Bai Girl likes it." ”
Before Bai Xiuying could react, Liu Zhenglong quietly left.
