Chapter 57: Six Gods and One Flower
Fang Tian sneered, and replied loudly in the direction of the kitchen: "There are not many orchids that can be bought at this season, and there are not many that can be used, and the raw materials are not enough, so the perfume is prepared less, mother, I promise you, when the orchids are in bloom next spring, I will personally mix a bottle of perfume for you, and ensure that you use it and go out the door, and the aunts at the entrance of the village are impressed by you." ”
Zhao Xiuqin laughed twice, muttering that Fang Tian was really a caring little padded jacket.
Fang Gang was also laughing, when he heard the word selling in Zhao Xiuqin's mouth, he moved his mind and frowned slightly: "Little sister, how do you sell this perfume, I see that my perfume smells comfortable and forgetful, I'm afraid it's not easy to sell, you are a daughter who is not easy to show up, do you want me to help you take it to the market tomorrow to shout?" ”
Fang Tian shook his head and said with a smile: "Brother, you are too worried, this perfume can't be put on the street like an ordinary item to be sold on the street, after all, those who will sell things on the street are generally people with low consumption power, our perfume is developed, and we must set a high price at the beginning, otherwise we will not even be able to recover the cost if we sell it." ”
Fang Gang was puzzled: "What you said is also reasonable, it is true that the development of this small bottle of perfume not only consumed a lot of energy and material resources, but also burned a lot of cost money. ”
But at this time, their family's perfume was wrong, so they ordered the shop at a high price, there was no goods to sell, and the shop couldn't make money.
"I also want to set up a store in the city, but considering that our current method of configuring perfume is not mature enough, and we can't mass produce, when the time comes, the shop will be in short supply, and it will not be able to do business, and the current orchids are far less open and better than in the spring, and we can wait until next spring when the orchids bloom in the shop."
"What about perfume now?"
Fang Tian thought for a moment and said: "When the perfume was still being developed, there was already a distinguished guest who wanted to buy perfume from me, I now have a few bottles of perfume in my hand, I want to sell a bottle to a nobleman, she is from the capital, her identity is very noble, it is estimated that she should have her own small circle in the capital, even if she sells the perfume to her at a loss, let her take it back to the capital to gain some popularity in that small circle, it can be regarded as paving the way for the future." ”
Fang Gang was slightly stunned, he didn't know what he should say for a while, he had always lived in the countryside, and the farthest place he had ever been to was only a neighboring town, although the capital was not far from their home, and he could get there in half a day by hurrying, but he had never been there.
Hearing that the city was resplendent and the people who lived in it were either rich or noble, Fang Tian dared to go to the capital to think about it, which was very surprising.
"Do you want to do business in the capital?"
"What capital?" Zhao Xiuqin happened to be a meal and served it on the table, and when she heard Fang Gang say this, she said casually.
Fang Tian raised his eyebrows and said: "Actually, it's not that I want to do business somewhere, it's just that the opportunity has come, I want to grasp it, that's all, that noble lady appeared in front of me, and she was a little interested in the perfume I developed, in the words of Buddhism, it is my fate, I want to grasp it." ”
She paused, and smiled slightly in the eyes of her brother and mother: "Besides, I really want to go to the capital to have a look." ”
There is no memory related to the capital in the memory of the original owner, and her only impression of the capital is that the nobles and rich people often mentioned by adults, I heard that the prices there are expensive, and even a meal can eat a hundred taels of silver, and that kind of luxury and extravagance are completely unimaginable for rural people like them.
Fang Tian, as a traverser, has an impression of the capital as the prosperous appearance in a brain-dead novel or a TV series, and now she is fortunate enough to be able to go to the capital to see it with her own eyes, of course she has to think about it, if her business can become bigger, then she will definitely drag her family to the capital to take a look, instead of trapping herself in this town for the rest of her life, so she is self-contained.
The next day, Fang Tian got up early in the morning, she has always been a lazy bone, and she hates things about rouge gouache the most, and today she not only got up early in the morning, but even turned out her makeup box, picked out her favorite dress, and combed in the mirror.
When Zhao Xiuqin entered the door, she thought that she had gotten up too early and her eyes were hazy, and she rubbed her eyes to look, only to believe that she was not looking away, but that Fang Tian really got up early in the morning and was dressing up.
"Is this the sun coming out in the west, and my girl is actually dressing up? Who is this going out to meet? ”
Zhao Xiuqin said, and suddenly became vigilant again, she was such a daughter, she used to look away for Zhao Wenxuan's scumbag to die or live, but now she suddenly opened her mind to dress up and go out, she had to start being vigilant.
"Who are you going out to meet, where are you going, when are you coming back, and will you bring that person with you when you come back?"
Fang Tian is still young now, and even just past the marriageable age, Zhao Xiuqin is not in a hurry to marry her, and even wants to let her stay by her side for two more years, and wait for the boy to carefully choose a good man and marry her.
Fang Tian raised his eyebrows in the mirror, and said without replying: "I don't want to see my lover, mother, you are too worried." ”
Where would Zhao Xiuqin believe her words, at this moment she was wearing a light purple long skirt, combing a delicate bun, and a delicate hairpin was obliquely inserted in the bun.
Fang Tianhe once cared so much about her dress, in the past, when she and Zhao Wenxuan were still together, she always got up early to dress up and go out on a date with Zhao Wenxuan in order to be beautiful.
Zhao Xiuqin was also a person who came over, and sighed and said: "Tell me who the man you are going to see is, whether you met him at the temple fair that day, you have confessed to your mother, I am also here, and I will not blame you." ”
Fang Tian couldn't help but feel funny, in the past, when she was addicted to experiments and couldn't go out, she wanted to persuade herself to go out and walk around more, but now when she dresses up and wants to go out, she has to ask questions again, she really pity the parents of the world.
"Mother, you don't have to guess, I went out this time, it's really not to meet my lover, I'm for business."
Fang Tian said, lifting a small white porcelain bottle on the dresser.
The little white porcelain bottle Zhao Xiuqin recognized, it was the small porcelain bottle that Fang Tian used to hold the perfume she developed, could it be that she went out today, really for the perfume in the small porcelain bottle?
Zhao Xiuqin was puzzled: "If you go out to talk about business with people, you can talk about business, why do you have to dress up, my girl is so good-looking, if I were a man, I would definitely not be tempted, girl, I am also worried about you." ”
"I understand all of this." Fang Tian smiled and said, "But mother, you really misunderstood me this time, I told you yesterday, there was a noble lady who decided before my perfume was prepared, I went out today, just thinking about sending the perfume to others in person, as for dressing up, isn't this because people dare not slack off because of their noble status?" ”
In a small and delicate building, the veil is swaying lightly and the incense is swirling.
The beautiful woman in a brocade dress was lying on the Taishi chair, her eyes closed as if she was asleep, holding a fan half-covering her face, and gently shaking it from time to time.
The room was quiet, and the servants on the side stood respectfully to the side, their bodies straight and straight, like a straight tree, because the women closed their eyes as if they were taking a nap, and the servants did not dare to make a noise, for fear of accidentally waking up the noble master, and then being beaten badly.
A maidservant dressed in a light white maid's dress hurriedly came, knelt down behind the curtain, and whispered: "Madam, Madame Yang asks to see." ”
When the woman heard this, she opened her eyes, and her eyes were bright and clear, like a pool of unpolluted spring water in the mountains and forests.
The petal-like soft and red lips opened slightly, and spit out a crisp voice falling on the jade plate: "Which Mrs. Yang asks to see?" ”
"It's the wife of the local county commander's family, I heard that you came here and live in this small building, so I came to pay a visit."
Madame Bai frowned slightly, and said in her heart that her itinerary has always been low-key, and she has never alarmed anyone, how can she still attract attention, and she has to make a special trip to meet her?
If the personal maid kneeling on the ground could hear the doubts in the heart of the lady, she would have rolled her eyes, although they were indeed much more low-key along the way, and they had not preached on the road, but this place was remote after all, their team was huge, and the lady lived in this courtyard after it was even more strict, as long as you were not a fool could know that there was a noble person living in the small building, plus some rumors on the way, and then think about it a little with your brain, anyone could guess the identity of the one who lived in the small building.
Madame Bai was puzzled and simply threw the matter aside.
Everyone in the capital knows Mrs. Bai's personality and temper, she has always been arrogant and coquettish, she also has arrogant and coquettish capital, and she has always disdained to touch the favor of a person with a low official rank and no relationship.
The wife of the local county magistrate asked to see her, but she naturally didn't want to see her: "Just send people away, saying that I am not feeling well and do not see guests." ”
Qinghe frowned slightly and said: "Madame, isn't it good to be like this, after all, we are now on other people's territory, and they have specially prepared gifts to visit, isn't it embarrassing for us not to see us?" Otherwise, it would be good to see her and be able to say two or three words. ”
Qing He has been by Mrs. Bai's side since she was very young, and she was raised by Mrs. Bai as half a daughter, so what she said naturally carried some weight.
"You even brought a present?" Madame Bai raised her eyebrows slightly when she heard this, as if she had heard something very interesting, and after a moment of silence, she replied, "Return the gift of that Raushzi, if you don't see it, you won't see it, what's wrong with the rudeness, can she still be angry and send someone to kill me?" ”
Mrs. Bai has this confidence, her status is noble, in case Mrs. Yang is really angry and does something terrible, then the local officials will be punished, and she doesn't have the courage to think about it.
The servants who came to report agreed and retreated, and accidentally bumped into a servant girl in a hurry on the way.
The two were familiar with each other, and the angry maid frowned and asked casually, "Why are you in such a hurry?" ”
"There's a son outside who wants to see his wife, I'll let you know."
The maid turned her eyes to look out of the door, and at the end of her eyes there was a weak boy who was not good at walking, waiting quietly in a wheelchair, and behind her there was a thin little man with a restless face.
The clothes of the boy and the little girl did not look like the dress of a rich and noble family, they were very ordinary, like two ordinary people in the vast sea of people, which happened to be in stark contrast to Mrs. Yang who was waiting on the side.
