Chapter 65 Cosmetics

A few days ago, I told Moxi that she planned to let Aoki help me do business, but she was strongly opposed, but in the end, she couldn't withstand my repeated persuasion and reluctantly agreed. For this, he also gambled with me for a day.

I complained that I didn't want to save people at the beginning, why is it so concerned about their sister and brother now, it seems that it is all my fault, and it makes me depressed for a few days.

But I have to say that Aoki is indeed a smart person, he showed me the plan, the rules and regulations are very well planned, how to operate, how to prepare, how to carry out, the plan is not leaky, along with the budget estimate, it is like it was planned in advance, but it surprised me for a long time.

Finally, after I asked him repeatedly, he told me the truth, saying that he had always kept these things in mind and had been planning, but he was a small person, and he wanted to earn some principal in the past few years, but he didn't want me to help him.

A twelve-year-old child, with such a meticulous mind, is really not inferior to those young heroes.

Aoki only went around the neighborhood a few times the next day, and then came back and told me that he knew what business he was going to do, but I was taken aback, and when I was surprised, he slowly told me what he was thinking.

This Qingzhou is a remote small county, although it seems to be prosperous, but it is not as prosperous as those big cities outside, and not to mention anything else, just say that Qingzhou is a bad environment and traffic, surrounded by mountains on three sides, only one Huai River is water, which is not conducive to entering and exiting, so that the traffic is very closed and blocked.

Foreign businessmen are naturally reluctant to come to this kind of place to make a living, but people in Qingzhou are also reluctant to go out, and the pace of life is also very slow, just like a cage, those commodities and goods are framed, what Qingzhou lacks, merchants will buy something.

If you organize a caravan and go to the neighboring big city to buy some fresh things that Qingzhou does not have, it will naturally sell well, and you can also go to the nearest Jin country to buy foreign goods in the future.

Although he said it more implicitly, I probably understood that he wanted to stimulate luxury consumption.

Although this place is remote, the people here have plenty of food and clothing, and their lives are much richer than elsewhere, perhaps because of the fertile land, or something else, but in any case, they have a lot of spare money.

I have been in Qingzhou for more than half a month, and I have seen it, as long as it is a rare product, how much money will be rushed to buy it, and there are ordinary people who do not have it, which is not exactly the symbol they use to show off their status.

But Aoki is a teenager, I really don't worry about letting him go out alone, and there is no one to rely on, which really makes me entangled for a long time, but Aoki said that things are man-made, and success or failure is in heaven. Since I believe in him, he is willing to give it a try.

After Qinghe found out, she knelt down in my study and begged, begging me not to let Aoki get into danger, she cried and swollen her eyes, so much trouble, made me in a dilemma.

As soon as I finished lunch, I went back to the wing room with Moxi, and just now at the dinner table, Aoki and his sister were angry, and the two were silent, the atmosphere was very depressing, and it also made me feel a little uncomfortable.

Even I questioned my thoughts, what was this for? Could it be that you have done something bad with good intentions?

"Xianggong......" Mo Xi helped me knead my shoulders and called out suicidly.

I was in a trance for a moment before I answered, "What's wrong?" ”

"Xianggong, don't you often make perfume and flower dew for yourself in the palace, presumably those things are not available in Qingzhou." She paused, I turned around and gave her a continuing look, and then she continued, "I went out to buy vegetables a few days ago, and I saw that Yulufang just got a new batch of pearl powder that you used in the palace earlier, and those ladies and young ladies were simply snatched up. ”

Cosmetics? Woman? By the way, why didn't I think of it, since ancient times, this has been the best money for women and children.

Women are the ones who please themselves, not to mention that everyone has a love for beauty, if they want to attract their sweethearts, they must be willing to spend money on their appearance. As for the child's money, I don't believe that any parent doesn't care about their own blood, but I'm afraid that they can't wait to give their children the best things in the world.

"My good lady, you really make me feel enlightened." I grabbed Mo Xi and hugged him into my arms and laughed.

She exclaimed, just smiling shyly.

Since Qinghe doesn't want his younger brother to travel far, not to mention that I'm really not at ease, then why don't we take local materials, I think, the things I make are not sold in the entire southern country.

Having made up my mind, I hurried to my study.

In the past few days, Aoki has been sullen after knowing that Qinghe has interceded with me, and has been sullen all day long, staying in the study all day in a daze at those plans he wrote himself, and I can't comfort anything, although he is just my minion, but I should also think about his personal safety.

"Aoki, Aoki." I snatched the paper from his hand and said to him, "I have a new way, you don't have to go out somewhere else to buy goods." ”

His eyes were dull, but when he heard me say this, his eyes suddenly brightened, and he couldn't help but look at me, and asked blankly, "Really?" What's the idea? ”

"That's naturally true, when did you see Childe and I told a lie." Seeing that he was relieved, I smiled proudly, sat on the desk with a skillful hand, grabbed the bone fan on the table, unfolded it, and then said slowly, "I am responsible for providing you with goods, and you are responsible for selling them." ”

"Childe, what kind of goods?" Although he was a little puzzled, he still asked when he saw that I was so confident.

I shook my head and said what I was thinking, "Cosmetics, I heard that the business of Yulufang in Qingzhou is the best, aren't they just selling rouge gouache, we can too." ”

"No, no, no, no." Hearing my suggestion, Aoki shook his head and said, "That Yulufang is just a branch in Qingzhou, and their main shop is in Yanjing, and the rouge gouache in the workshop is all modeled after those ladies in the palace, how can we compare with them." ”

"Cut, it's just an old thing in the palace, and it's like a treasure." I pouted disdainfully.

Aoki was stunned for a moment and laughed, "Childe, you have never been to the palace, how do you know that it is using old things, the little one knows that Childe is unhappy in his heart, but it is not good to belittle others." ”

I ...... "I'm what you call the lady in the palace, can I not know!!

But I naturally didn't dare to say this, and I was stumbling for a long time before I reluctantly made up nonsense, "I'm from Yanjing, listen to me, that's right." ”

When he saw that I was so persistent, he didn't want to say anything, so he said, "What is that boy going to do?" ”

"Go buy me some flowers, what time is it?"

He listened to me and thought for a while, "It's just a few days after Qixi Festival, and the autumn weather is over." ”

"Then go buy some jasmine, osmanthus back, don't chrysanthemum." I pondered for a moment and commanded.

The flowers that bloom in this autumn are also flourishing, such as the moon season, jasmine, osmanthus, and countless flowers, but only chrysanthemums are the symbol of autumn.

Anyway, I don't like Qiu Ju, if I don't say it carefully, I'm really afraid that he will bring me back a big handful of golden chrysanthemums, and I will really cry and laugh at that time.

He nodded, and was about to get up and go out, but I pulled him again and again, and said, "By the way, as long as the flowers, not the roots, don't buy me a bunch of potted plants back." ”

"Huh? Flower? Flower bud? Petal? When he heard my command, he turned around and looked surprised.

Looking at his embarrassed appearance, I felt strange, "Yes, flowers! Flower bud! Don't you sell flowers like that? ”

Could it be that in ancient times, people sent flowers to potted plants? Holding a pot bigger than your face, with a few flowers on it?

He didn't speak, but he still looked at me with that expression, which made me a little embarrassed to ask, "Ahem, don't you all give flowers to others?" ”

"That's not it, but I haven't seen anyone send flowers...... Sending flower petals. He said with some difficulty.

Did I miscalculate? Did this ancients really not send flowers? But I clearly remember that Yuan Zhen's "Folding Branches and Flowers Sending Away" is a poem about sending flowers, and I still asked a little reluctantly, "Uh, didn't you send one by one?" Isn't there anyone to send cherry blossoms and roses? ”

He looked at me, swallowed his slurp, shook his head, frowned and looked strange, "How can anyone send flowers and poems one by one, doesn't that look shabby?" Besides, it's not good to give it, why do you want to send flowers, these flowers, most of them are bought home to enjoy themselves, unless they are particularly precious, otherwise it's not good to give them away. ”

His answer still made me unwilling, and I didn't believe it, "Then when you men pursue women, don't you give things?" ”

"Send it, send jade pendants, hairpins, and send pen and ink, or inscribe poems." I suddenly changed the subject, and before he could react, he thought for a few minutes before answering me.

Inscription poem? Calligraphy? This time it was my turn to be dumbfounded.

Yes, yes, it's me who overestimated the emotional intelligence of the ancients, and things as romantic as sending roses are naturally unthinkable for these nerds. No wonder there are so many falling flowers deliberately flowing and ruthless things, who dares me to send those things, I really want to tear him apart.

"That'...... Then I don't care, you go buy it, anyway, I just need petals, you can find a way. He let go of the hand that was holding him by the shoulder, and rubbed his forehead, a little forceful.

It was the first time he saw me so unreasonable, so he was stunned for a moment, but he nodded, "Childe......, yes, Childe just wait." Seeing that I didn't say anything more, he withdrew.

If the jasmine grows well, I don't have to be so entangled, hey, it's really not easy, but everything is difficult at the beginning, as long as I can make perfume and flower dew, it will be much easier.
