Chapter 498: Opening
"It's okay," Qingwan knew that this pot was specially prepared for the owner, and she must not have expected her to come in the afternoon, so she didn't prepare much hot water: "Bring the water you drink and pour some more." ”
The young man hurriedly said, "How can this be done?" The small ones are going to be burned! ”
"It's all the same, so why bother?" Qingwan pointed to a young man who happened to walk by: "Isn't what he is holding in his hand the hot water you drink?" ”
"Oh, you're talking about Cheng Yong?" As he spoke, the young man beckoned, "Bring the kettle!" ”
The young man named Chengyong hurriedly came over when he heard the voice: "Changyong, what do you want the pot for?" ”
As soon as Changyong took it, he diligently filled Qingwan's cup with water: "There is no hot water in the owner's pot." ”
"The taste of this water is different from usual," Qingwan took a sip casually, and was suddenly a little surprised: "Is there anything else in it?" ”
Changyong was stunned and speechless, that Chengyong was already leaving, but when he heard the words, he turned around and came back, and said with a smile: "It's all small, I forgot for a while, there are some wheat Dong and Yuzhu in it, so there is some medicinal smell." Ask the owner for forgiveness, and the small one will go and boil the water. ”
"It doesn't matter," Qingwan smiled and made a stop gesture, "It's not hard to drink." You put this herb there? What do you put this for? ”
"Yes," Cheng Yong said busily: "Now that the autumn weather is dry, I see that the big guys are busy every day, and they are a little on fire, so I want to add something that defeats the fire, but honeysuckle and the like are too cold, so I used the yin nourishing product, and I saw that everyone drank it for two days, and it was not bad, so I had the courage to put some more, but I didn't expect it."
"You studied medicine?" Qingwan asked with interest.
"No, no," Cheng Yong waved his hand again and again: "The small family is very difficult, where can I study medicine?" However, there is a medical hall next door to my house, and since I was a child, I often heard Mr. Lang Zhong talk about these medicinal materials, and I remembered some of them. ”
Qingwan nodded: "Yes, at a young age, you are very thoughtful, and you can still worry about the physical condition of the people in the shop, you two are fine, you will do things well here in the future, I will naturally not treat you lightly." ”
"Thank you, owner." The two of them hurriedly agreed, and went their separate ways.
"Sister Wei, let's hurry up and work, shall we?" Lu Xiufang didn't pay attention to the conversation here, just walked around the shop and looked at it a few times, and she couldn't wait: "Such a big counter, those few small bottles of makeup, it seems too few!" ”
"Don't worry, you come with me." Qingwan handed the burden to a young man and held it, and set it up from the large counter facing the door, followed by several small counters on both sides, although the makeup bottles were small, but they were interspersed with flowers, knick-knacks and the like, and when they were all put in, they looked shining.
"Sister Wei, I really didn't expect that this little thing could be so beautiful!" Lu Xiufang looked at the very different counter and was excited.
"Didn't I say that? As long as the furnishings are exquisite, they don't look small. And cosmetics can't be crowded, in that way, it's like a big road goods. ”
"Sister Wei, I dare to say, as soon as our shop opens tomorrow, even the threshold of the quasi-insurance will be broken!"
"The hidden dragon and crouching tiger in the capital, these shops," Qingwan pointed to the street: "Which one doesn't have a backer behind it?" I'm afraid that it can't be done by things alone. ”
"It's okay," Lu Xiufang said confidently, "My second brother is not an ordinary person!" With him to support us, don't be afraid of anything, I know, the second brother often comes to the capital, and he is very familiar with many eunuchs, just find the second brother when there is something to do! ”
Qingwan just smiled, although she was full of confidence in the makeup, she always had a faint premonition that there seemed to be some murderous motive hidden in the capital at this time.
"Wei Dongjia, when will we put the goods?" Chang Yong came over and asked earnestly.
"Don't be in a hurry," Qingwan said, "You let everyone put down the work in their hands first and come over for a while." ”
"Yes." Changyong knew that she had something to command, so he hurriedly brought everyone over and stood with his hands down.
Qingwan looked at everyone, there were about seven or eight, all of them were eighteen or nineteen years old, although they were wearing the same shop clothes, but their eyebrows were full of leanness, and they nodded unsatisfied: "What have you all done before?" ”
Changyong was the first to come out: "Back to the owner's house, the small one sold groceries and drove the carriage." ”
Then everyone gossiped, and they all talked about the past, but they had not done anything in medicine.
"Although we are a cosmetics shop, but the people who come and go are the ladies in the house, not ordinary guests," Qingwan said slowly: "So you must be extra careful, words and actions can not be reckless, and you must also know that what our shop sells is not ordinary cosmetics, they are all made of flowers and plants, each with its own role, you also have to learn some medical knowledge in the future, so that the guests will not ask three questions." ”
The guys showed puzzled looks, Qingwan only didn't see it, and continued: "Don't worry, in two days, I will naturally invite Mr. Lang Zhong to teach you, this is also an assessment item, if you can't learn, it will be difficult to do it in our shop." ”
"Yes." The voices were not as loud as they had just been, and they were uneven. When I first entered this cosmetics shop, I saw that the owner was Lu Yanyi, and everyone was still a little afraid, and then I heard that it was another woman who came to manage it, and they were a little apprehensive. When I heard these words today, my mind suddenly became complicated.
Qingwan knows all this: "This is also for your good, if you can learn more things, it will always be beneficial in the future." Although our shop is not big, but we can't slack off because of this, don't feel that I'm demanding, if you are a capable person, you can get ahead anywhere, if you are a mediocre person, even if you go elsewhere, I'm afraid it won't help. In the future, when the work grows, there will naturally be rewards according to the merits of each person, and they can either invest in it or resettle the house. Everyone is for this store, for our shop to be more prosperous, and after getting along for a long time, we will naturally know it. That's all for today. ”
Everyone agreed, their faces recovered, and they didn't dare to say anything, so they went to work.
Before dawn the next day, Qingwan got up to freshen up, and just when she was ready, she saw Lu Xiufang coming over happily: "Sister Wei, when are we leaving?" ”
Looking at her impatient expression, Qingwan felt a little helpless and funny: "It's too early, right?" You're such an impatient! ”
"Isn't our shop open today?" Lu Xiufang smiled: "I haven't slept well all night." ”
"Then we'll have to have breakfast before leaving, right?" Qingwan looked at the maids who were serving the food up: "Why don't you have the strength to work?" ”
"Okay, okay," Lu Xiufang had something in her heart, so she just hurriedly ate a piece of snack and put it down: "This can go, right?" ”
Hanguan hurried over at this time, and when he saw it, he smiled and said, "Second sister, you guys are so early, I'll go with you too!" ”
"It's the twenty-ninth today, and you're going to school the day after tomorrow, don't you prepare anything?" Qingwan said: "Don't worry about me, just take care of your own affairs." Tomorrow, if I have time, I will accompany you to the streets. ”
"Second sister, don't worry, I'm ready." Hanguan hurriedly said: "Today is the big day when your shop opens, how can I stay at home?" ”
"Okay then," Qingwan agreed with a smile: "I'll leave when your brother Lu comes." ”
As soon as she finished speaking, she heard the sound of a carriage outside, and Lu Xiufang immediately laughed: "The second brother must be here!" ”
As he spoke, he took Qingwan's hand and ran outside.
Sure enough, it was Lu Yanyi, and when he saw the appearance of the two, he smiled: "How is it?" With my sister, no one has to be disturbed by her! ”
"Who said that?" Lu Xiufang said with a smile: "You ask Sister Wei, is it that I am here, and she is much happier?" ”
"Okay, okay, can you say that you can open your mouth?" Lu Yanyi said: "Get in the car!" ”
When I came to the shop, I saw that the red colors were already decorated, and Hanguan said: "Brother Lu, this is all prepared by you, right?" ”
"What do you think?" Lu Yanyi asked.
"What Brother Lu did, naturally he didn't say it." Hanguan looked at the completely new storefront, "When is the auspicious time?" ”
"The time chosen." Lu Yanyi smiled: "It's almost there! ”
Greeting guests came one after another, all of them were Lu Yanyi's old acquaintances in Beijing, the small shop, suddenly crowded, and most of the people who came were dignitaries, and the cars and horses outside filled the door, which immediately attracted the attention of many passers-by.
When the auspicious time came, the shop officially opened, out of curiosity, many people poured in, and when they saw the makeup on the counter, they all showed a look of surprise: "What is this made of?" I've never seen it before. ”
"Say it's made of flowers and plants?"
"It's never been used, is it good?"
Some people also said: "I seem to have heard that in some state city, there is a new kind of cosmetics, which are all made of flowers and plants, and they are different from the usual." You can't grab it if you don't make a reservation! ”
Qingwan was busy greeting everyone, and according to everyone's skin type, she helped them try some, and the people who used it all praised and were amazed.
"I still have some business, so I'll leave first, if you want to find me, call someone to come to the yamen of the ministry." Lu Yanyi whispered to Qingwan.
"To the ministry? What's the big deal? ”
Lu Yanyi looked left and right: "I don't have time to talk about it now, you don't have to worry about it." ”
After saying that, he walked away quickly.
Qingwan nodded, although he was very worried in his heart, but he also knew that he must have his own reason, so he could only watch the back of the hurried departure.
Before she could think about it, a group of women surrounded her and asked questions, which made people dizzy.
Among the guests, there are also female relatives of rich and noble families, but Lu Xiufang is familiar with most of them, so those noble ladies have bought a lot of them, and the big bags and small bags have attracted everyone's attention more and more.
