Chapter 178: Imitations
"What the hell is wrong with this, if it's just an imitation, why did the princess leave in such a hurry?" Ye Junhao straightened up and looked at the maid and asked.
The maid looked back at Ye Junhao and replied: "Back to the prince, most of these folk imitations are bought by myself from the princess and then returned to my own match, and some of them are not accurate, so although the price is much cheaper, it will cause great harm to the user." ”
It doesn't matter if you make money or not, for Shi Yingqiu, you must not let unscrupulous things enter the capital.
"He'an, what's going on? How did you find out? When Shi Yingqiu rushed into the beauty salon in a hurry, he found that there seemed to be a lot fewer customers today than a few days ago.
When he saw this scene, Shi Yingqiu probably already knew something.
"We only found out in the last few days that fewer and fewer people come to our beauty salon, and after sending people out to inquire, we found that there are people in the capital who don't know when they started to engage in this skin care product, and the price is much cheaper than ours, so there are many customers who would rather go to them than come to us." He An said with a little headache.
In the house, Ye Junhao was a little worried about Shi Yingqiu, so after she went out, he quietly followed out not long after.
He saw Shi Yingqiu listening to the maid's report in the beauty salon, and after the report was finished, Shi Yingqiu asked the people arranged by He An to quietly buy a few bottles of other people's imitations and come back.
"Boss, this replica looks almost exactly the same as our skincare products, what can you see?" He An looked at the boxes in Shi Yingqiu's hand, and even the outer packaging was almost exactly the same as theirs.
At this time, there was nothing called copyright, and it was the only way to do it after someone stole their work.
But Shi Yingqiu couldn't swallow this breath, why did the things he worked so hard to develop end up cheaper than others.
"If there are any guests in the past two days, you will entertain them, and I will go back and study it first, what are the main ingredients in this?" Shi Yingqiu said as she took those things and prepared to leave.
As soon as she walked to the door of the store, she saw Ye Junhao standing at the door and was stunned for a moment.
"Aren't you still in the palace? How did you get here? Shi Yingqiu pretended not to know that Ye Junhao was following her.
When she asked this, Ye Junhao's whole person was a little aggrieved.
Ye Junhao looked at Shi Yingqiu pitifully and said, "Didn't I want to come and see you?" See if there's anything that can help you. ”
Shi Yingqiu put all those skin care products into his bag, patted his bag and Ye Junhao and said, "Okay, don't worry about it for the time being, let's go back first, I want to study it carefully, what is the difference between the main ingredients in this and mine." ”
She had used the method of cold pressing when developing those skin care products, and she was sure that no one had used such a method of extraction.
Ye Junhao sat obediently in the courtyard alone, sitting opposite Shi Yingqiu, watching her make some bottles and cans and so on on the table, and then dug out a piece from the box of skin care products and put it in it.
"Seriously, the taste and texture of this thing are exactly the same as the ones you developed, what are you still looking at?" Ye Junhao curiously took the box of skin care products from Shi Yingqiu's hand, and gently dug out a piece from it and said.
He once brought a lot of skin care products from Shi Yingqiu, so he knows the texture of skin care products very well.
Shi Yingqiu wore gloves and analyzed these skin care products in the same way.
"They probably only know what some of the things I add in it, and they can't fully grasp my technology of making skin care products, and you see that there is also a little mercury added to it, mercury is highly toxic, and if it is used for a long time, it will kill people, and if such skin care products are used for a long time, not to mention that they will beautify and nourish their skin, and even their own bodies will be ruined." Shi Yingqiu looked at the bottles and cans in front of him with a headache.
He An bought her some skin care products from most of the skin care products, and the skin care products in front of her were mainly divided into two types after research.
One is that the price is relatively lower, and the ingredients added in it are also more damaging to the body, and the other is slightly more expensive, but the effect is not very good.
"So what are you going to do now? Even if this matter is reported to Jing Zhaoyin, he will not say anything. Ye Junhao saw Shi Yingqiu's discouraged look, looked at her distressedly and asked.
Shi Yingqiu held his chin with both hands and looked at these things in front of him silently.
Seeing that she didn't speak, Ye Junhao didn't dare to speak, for fear of disturbing Shi Yingqiu, who was thinking.
The sunlight shone through the branches, dappled on the two people, and Shi Yingqiu didn't speak until I don't know how long it was.
"But if they use skincare products like this, it won't be long before they have problems." She said with an anxious look on her face.
Ye Junhao also had his own opinion on this matter, he shrugged his shoulders indifferently and said: "But some people are willing to spend less money to buy that bargain, and you can't pull them and tell them not to buy them." ”
said the same, after hearing this, Shi Yingqiu fell into deep thought.
Their beauty salon now has a certain scale, and also has a stable customer base, these customer groups have strong consumption power, which will bring her a very stable and objective income, to be honest, she does not need to be entangled in the appearance of imitations.
"Although these imitations may be effective in a certain period of time, they will definitely do more harm than good in the long run." Shi Yingqiu said unrelentingly.
Ye Junhao saw that she resolutely wanted to investigate this matter to the end, sighed, and said helplessly: "Your new store is about to open, if you are distracted to investigate this matter, it will definitely delay the matter of the new store, it is better to do this, you leave this matter to me, I will help you investigate, you can concentrate on doing a good job in the store." ”
Hearing that Ye Junhao was willing to help her investigate, Shi Yingqiu put down a big stone in her heart.
"It's a lot of trouble for you, and it's hard for you to do things at the new store." Shi Yingqiu said and got up to pinch his shoulders and beat his back.
When it was evening, Shi Yingqiu went to bathe first, and Ye Junhao called the guards around him.
"How's the matter of the beauty salon that asked you to investigate?" Ye Junhao asked.
Hearing this, the guard half-knelt on the ground and replied, "As the prince guessed, half of the imitation of skin care products in Beijing this time is related to those noble ladies. ”
If there is no certain material and financial resources, even if the materials in skin care products are analyzed, it is impossible to have the strength to produce them in large quantities, but those noble ladies represent not only themselves, but also an interest group.
As the emperor's younger brother, if he is involved in the conflict of interests of the imperial court, it will cause a series of troubles, which is one of the reasons why he is unwilling to let Shi Yingqiu chase after him to the end.
But even if he didn't dig into it to the end, he looked at Shi Yingqiu's sad appearance, and his heart was as uncomfortable as a knife.
Ye Junhao waved his hand to signal that the guard could go down.
Shi Yingqiu returned to the room after bathing and changing, her hair was a little wet, and she was drying her hair with a cloth towel.
"I've checked the imitation of skin care products for you, this matter has a certain relationship with the ladies in the capital, and there are unscrupulous merchants, half of the products are those ladies who think it's not cost-effective to always come to your store, so they find someone to study it, and some are unscrupulous businessmen who see that you make money, so they also want to make money, and most of the products they imitate add things like mercury, which is more harmful to the body." Ye Junhao said as he took the cloth towel in Shi Yingqiu's hand and carefully wiped her hair for her.
After hearing this, Shi Yingqiu was a little annoyed.
"I can understand the thoughts of those noble ladies, their products are not easy to use at most, but I really can't understand what those unscrupulous businessmen think, once this thing is used on the face, it is not only the appearance of a girl's family, but also the health of a girl's family." Shi Yingqiu said in an angry manner.
Her hair is long and numerous, and Ye Junhao has always been careful when he helps her wipe her hair, for fear that he will accidentally hurt her.
This girl is like this every time, and when she takes a bath, she always tends to get her long black hair wet, but if she doesn't dry it at night, she is prone to crying out for headaches the next morning.
Ye Junhao finally helped Shi Yingqiu wipe his hair half-dry, he folded the cloth towel that was also wet and put it aside, sat next to Shi Yingqiu, looked at her and asked, "Then according to what you see, what do you want to do with this matter now?" ”
Shi Yingqiu said categorically: "Track it down!" Be sure to crack down on these unscrupulous businessmen! ”
Ye Junhao sighed, and said with some self-reproach: "But you have to know one thing, if you want to investigate like this, it will definitely involve the interests of those noble ladies, and our Rong'an Mansion will also be affected at that time." ”
Although he is said to be an idle prince, after all, he is in the court, and it is impossible for him to leave the court by birth.
Shi Yingqiu suddenly realized when she heard this, she pursed her lips and was silent.
Seeing her so entangled, Ye Junhao's heart suddenly regretted it, no matter what kind of Rong'an Mansion he had, how could Shi Yingqiu's hard-working research results become someone else's?
At this time, Shi Yingqiu suddenly said: "In that case, then let's find out from those unscrupulous businessmen first!" ”
