Chapter 197: Good Advice

This suggestion is good, Shi Yingqiu thought about it, turned his head to look at Ye Junhao, and asked embarrassedly poked his hand: "It's not bad, but I don't know much about the people in the palace, I don't know if I can bother you to help me pick a few people out?" ”

Madame needs to come to herself, Ye Junhao naturally agreed, so in just three days, more than 20 maids have been selected, waiting for Shi Yingqiu to choose.

When so many maids stood in her courtyard, Shi Yingqiu was still in a trance, as if she thought that she was an ancient king and was choosing a concubine.

The most important thing is that although these maids don't look like they are all over the country, they are very attractive.

"First of all, I think that since you are going to carry out the business of makeup, if the maids are too ugly, it will also lower the appearance of the store and make the customers unhappy, but if you want the too good-looking maids to stay in the house, you will have no sense of security, so you will simply give these people to you." Ye Junhao stood beside Shi Yingqiu, put his hand on her shoulder, and gently squeezed it to relax her.

When he heard these words, Shi Yingqiu's old face turned red, he didn't expect Ye Junhao to be so careful.

So she temporarily selected ten maids from among them, trained them first, and the rest were treated as standby, and when the branch opened later, she sent them outside.

Soon the makeup business was launched, and although those high-quality imitation stores were able to imitate her skin care products, the quality was a big difference, and it didn't take long for the side effects to appear.

Those noble ladies in the capital, after seeing this, turned their heads to Shi Yingqiu's shop, it was a little more expensive, after all, their face was more important, wasn't it?

In addition, Shi Yingqiu was holding activities in the store during this time, and this makeup service attracted many people to come, so the business went to a higher level.

There are many unscrupulous businessmen who want to imitate Shi Yingqiu's makeup techniques, but no matter how many people they send to pretend to be guests, they haven't learned this makeup technique from Shi Yingqiu.

The most important point is that many of Shi Yingqiu's cosmetics are made by herself, and she does it herself.

"Those maids you left me before really have other uses now, such as helping me make cosmetics now." Shi Yingqiu said with a smile as he stirred up the things in his hand.

I don't know why the things seized in her hands suddenly felt a little cold in Ye Junhao's heart, because he knew that Shi Yingqiu was definitely going to try new snacks again.

Shi Yingqiu made crystal cakes before, and those cooks later told him that Shi Yingqiu had spent so much effort in order to make him a birthday gift, and he was a little worried while being moved.

"I'm making new loose powders, the ones I used before are not very easy to use, and I found that the makeup setting effect is not very good, this is my new research and development, made with rice grinding, and then add my specially prepared essential oil after drying, you can achieve a good moisturizing effect." Shi Yingqiu stretched out the things in his hand as he spoke, showing them to Ye Junhao.

Seeing that it wasn't for him to eat, Ye Junhao's heart was really relieved.

Everything in business is going on in an orderly manner, but now there has been a slight change in the capital, Shi Yingqiu is not in the court and has not felt it, but Ye Junhao has already sensed the danger one step ahead.

The guard stood beside Ye Junhao and said in a low voice: "The heavy rain in the Liangcheng area in recent days has flooded a lot of farmland and crops, and now there have been more or less riots over there, the victims can't eat and go to grab it, and the rich people are closed their doors, and now there is chaos over there, if you want to think about it, only you are the best person to be sent to the disaster relief in the court." ”

Ye Junhao's heart was very clear about these things, but he had no way to refuse, but if he wanted to go to disaster relief, there was no way to manage the affairs in the capital, and he couldn't take Shi Yingqiu with him anytime and anywhere, and that place itself was dangerous.

"You go and investigate secretly first, what kind of situation is there over there!" Ye Junhao sighed and said after thinking about it.

He hasn't told Shi Yingqiu about these things yet, if he told Shi Yingqiu, she would definitely be very anxious, and before the matter was settled, he didn't want it to be too anxious.

Running two beauty salons in Ancheng and Beijing, Shi Yingqiu is busy every day, but he ignores that Junhao's mood is not quite right in the past few days.

The holy decree that sent Ye Junhao came unexpectedly, and Shi Yingqiu was stunned when he saw that holy decree.

Shi Yingqiu was stunned: "How could I ask you to go to that place in Liangcheng so suddenly, isn't that place very dangerous now?" ”

At that moment, she wanted to ask Ye Junhao if she could go with her, but before she could ask this sentence, she saw Ye Junhao looking at herself apologetically.

"During my absence, you must take good care of yourself in the capital, don't be afraid that someone in the capital will find you trouble, if there is anything, you can go into the palace to find the queen mother for help." Ye Junhao put the holy decree aside, he took Shi Yingqiu's hand with both hands and said nervously.

Yingqiu noticed that he was talking about going to the queen mother for help, not to the emperor for help, one was probably because the emperor was too busy, and the other was ......

Shi Yingqiu didn't know if there would be a reason for thinking too much about this, but she shook her head lightly and nodded vigorously: "Don't worry, I will definitely protect myself in your absence, but what about you, you must know that disaster relief is definitely not such a simple thing." ”

In the middle layer, how many corrupt officials and corrupt officials withheld rice and grain for disaster relief.

With the strength of Ye Junhao alone, if you want to protect these rice grains, it may be a little difficult, originally these rice grains are probably not enough to eat, and then the layers of deductions are put into the hands of the victims, and there is not much left.

"Okay, don't worry about anything now, just rest at home." Ye Junhao really couldn't bear to see Shi Yingqiu's worried gaze, he always felt that it was his fault to make her worry like this.

The next day after the holy decree was issued, it was time for him to leave, and Shi Yingqiu helped Ye Junhao pack some things overnight.

"You can take some silver here, and you may be able to use it when you get to the disaster area." Shi Yingqiu said and stuffed several silver tickets into his package.

On the morning of departure, Shi Yingqiu got up early to see off Ye Junhao.

Seeing Shi Yingqiu standing outside with a small umbrella, the rain soaked all underneath, Ye Junhao frowned and ordered someone to send her back quickly, "Go back quickly, it's a little cold today, and it's raining a little, you ran out wearing so thin, if you catch a cold at that time, who will do the things in the beauty salon?" ”

But Shi Yingqiu was reluctant to leave, and Ye Junhao had no choice but to get on the horse by himself, and Shi Yingqiu only went back after watching him leave.

The situation in Liangcheng is a little more serious than Shi Yingqiu thought, although she runs a beauty salon these days, not all she thinks about all the time is Ye Junhao.

He An looked at the account book in front of him, and said to Shi Yingqiu: "Boss, according to the current situation, we now have a large amount of silver in our hands, so it is better to buy a large amount of grain quickly." ”

Shi Yingqiu looked at He An with some puzzlement and asked, "We run a beauty salon, why do we suddenly buy so much food?" ”

"Since the proprietress is so worried about the prince, she should know that if you want to provide disaster relief, it will definitely not be enough to rely on the food allocated by the imperial court, so what kind of way do we have now? One is to suppress by force, and the other is to buy enough food, the prince is now on the cusp, if you want to suppress it by force, you will inevitably be caught by someone with a heart, but if you don't use force to suppress it, you must buy enough food to use it for those disaster victims. He An said as he fiddled with the abacus in his hand.

When Shi Yingqiu heard this, the whole person suddenly realized, and He An was more thoughtful.

However, there are millions of people in Liangcheng alone, not counting the victims from other places who came here because of the flood.

It is estimated that millions of people up and down need thousands of taels of silver.

"I'm not saying that I feel sorry for the silver or anything, but the grain in the capital is relatively scarce, and if we buy these grains on a large scale now, it will inevitably attract the attention of others, so I am afraid that someone will do it in the back." After Shi Yingqiu said this, he sighed heavily.

"In fact, we now have a way, that is, to send people around the capital to buy these grains, although it may attract the attention of others, it is better than buying directly in the capital, I originally wanted to plan to buy grain around Liangcheng, but after thinking about it, the current grain in Liangcheng is comparable to a thousand gold, so forget it!" As He An spoke, he reported a large number of numbers.

Shi Yingqiu didn't understand those numbers, but summed up one sentence, that is, buying grain around the capital now is the best way, and there is no one.

Just do it, Shi Yingqiu now took out a large amount of silver, handed it over to the people in the house, and asked them to go out to buy food, and handed it to He'an, and asked He'an to help with this matter.

On the side of Liangcheng, sure enough, Ye Junhao encountered a lot of troubles, such as the fact that there was no way to resettle those disaster victims, and for example, the food escorted by the court was not enough at all.

He only brought a staff member with him this time, called Shuyuan.
