Chapter Seventy-Two: Makeup for Lord Rui
After the end of the preferential period, there will be fewer customers, which was expected by Liu Yunyi.
It's just that she never thought that except for the familiar "old customers", the number of new guests completely exceeded her expectations.
At first, I didn't think that until one day I calculated the books, and the profit was barely half of the first day, Liu Yunyi knew that something was wrong.
After sending Ah Xiao to inquire around, he finally figured out the cause and effect.
Liu Yunyi suddenly became angry - it turned out that she was targeted!
It was not one person or two people who targeted her, but a group of people who took shortcuts to plot gold and silver.
That's right, her product was pirated.
Although I knew from the beginning that makeup brushes and cotton pads would be imitated, I didn't expect it to be so soon, only six or seven days, and there were three small shops in the capital that launched similar makeup brushes.
Ah Xiao bought all one set and came back, but the three sets of brushes added together were not enough for two taels of silver, and their quality can be imagined.
Sure enough, the moment he took out those brushes, Liu Yunyi was shocked by the fishy fur.
What the heck? Can this kind of thing really be used on the face??
The smell of the bristles is not wiped clean, and some can even smell what animal it is!
And the use of these brushes is also terrible, neither scratching powder nor coloring, and the loose hairs fall off as soon as they are plucked.
With a little effort, if you accidentally smudge people into a big flower face, you can't play the role of a brush at all, and it's not as good as your fingers.
Liu Yunyi has no doubt that this brush can even make people allergic.
The most annoying thing is that none of these brushes are printed with an auspicious cloud pattern on the surface, although there is a slight difference with the logo of her Dream Weaving Residence, but ordinary people will not delve into it, and even think that these brushes are also her Dream Weaving Habitat goods.
Or even if someone knows that those are knockoffs, they may still buy them, after all, the real brushes of Weaving Dream House are five taels in a set, and the fake brushes are cheap and have a natural appeal.
But the problem is that once they have allergies or encounter a bad experience, they will naturally substitute this dissatisfaction into the real brush for Weaving Dreams.
This is the biggest disgusting thing about fakes.
Liu Yunyi endured his anger, and sent Axiao to continue to inquire, and sure enough, he heard some terrible news about Dream Weaving.
Some scolded her for inflating the price, scolded her for too big shelves, and scolded her for poor workmanship......
It's really infuriating.
But this time, Liu Yunyi really didn't have anything to do.
Those shops, deep in the essence of a modern spell, copied the shape of the brush and copied the mark of the brush, but subtly changed the logo of the brush a little.
And in ancient times, there was no copyright, let alone patent protection, and Xiangyun itself was simple and easy to imitate, even if she really made a big deal about it, it is estimated that she would have to stop it.
Can't, let Feng Chengqian come to her every time, right?
In the final analysis, the influence of Weaving Dream House is still too small, and others don't pay much attention to it. And the brand effect of Weaving Dreams is not enough, so the people's ability to distinguish Weaving Dreams is insufficient.
Is there any way to enhance the influence of Dream Weaving House in a short period of time?
That's a big problem......
Liu Yunyi pondered, learn the essence of modern advertising, find a place with many people and be familiar with it, but I don't know if this ancient advertising is expensive......
These troubles were overwhelmed, Liu Yunyi couldn't find a positive solution, and the whole person became depressed.
Uncle Xu, Cai'er and others are not easy to persuade each other, and they really don't have any ideas, so they can only silently pray in their hearts that things will turn around.
At this time, Mingyue suddenly jumped in, followed by a quiet and beautiful maid.
Liu Yunyi recognized her as Feng Qingwu's side, and reluctantly greeted her with a smile: "Did Sister Qingwu let you come?" ”
The maid was busy and blessed her body: "Exactly, I saw Miss Liu San, and the slave maid came on the instructions of the county lord and invited Miss Liu San to come over the house." ”
Liu Yunyi finally remembered that he had made an appointment with Feng Qingwu before, and he would go to King Rui's Mansion to catch up in a few days, but he was too busy recently and forgot about it.
It just so happened that he was not in a good mood at the moment, and there were enough of four guys in the store, so Liu Yunyi nodded with the maid, took Mingyue and went to Rui Wangfu together.
The capital is not small, but it is not big, and the Rui Wangfu and the Chengwang Mansion are both in the east of the city.
Liu Yunyi got out of the carriage, but he had no intention of admiring the magnificence of the Rui Wangfu, and pondered with one heart that it would be better not to run into Feng Chengqian.
Although she was now sure that he would not kill her, she had not forgotten his pestilence nature...... In short, there really won't be anything good in a place with him!
Fortunately, Feng Chengqian is not here.
Liu Yunyi breathed a sigh of relief, and the maid led her to the front hall.
Everyone in Beijing knows that King Rui is kind and low-key, good vassal and elegant, this mansion is exactly the same as his character, delicate and introverted, simple but gentle, very pleasant.
Thinking of being able to raise a wonderful person like Feng Qingwu, Liu Yunyi couldn't wait to meet King Rui and Princess Rui.
After passing through the corridor, there is the main hall, Liu Yunyi just crossed the threshold, and Feng Qingwu greeted him like a butterfly.
"Sister Liu, you're finally here, I've been waiting for you for a long time!" Feng Qingwu's voice was crisp and pleasant, and he did not hide his joy.
Liu Yunyi was infected, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but smile.
"Sister Qingwu has been doing lately? The gift box I asked Mingyue to send before, do you still like Sister Qingwu? ”
"Okay, good, I like the gift box very much, but there are still a lot of things I don't understand, Sister Liu will have to teach me well later."
The two chatted at the door for a while, and Liu Yunyi remembered something in hindsight, quickly grabbed Liu Yunyi's arm, turned around with a smile and said, "Daddy, this is Sister Liu I told you." ”
Liu Yunyi raised his head in surprise, looked around Feng Qingwu, and looked behind her, only to find that there was indeed a person sitting in the hall.
The man is over fifty years old, wearing brocade clothes and jade silk and looking rich, and his figure is slightly chubby, but he has no frame at all.
When he met Liu Yunyi's eyes, he grinned, his eyes were crooked, and the whole person looked like a Maitreya Buddha, which was very intimate.
Liu Yunyi hurriedly blessed his body: "I've seen Lord Rui." ”
In his heart, he secretly said that although this prince and Feng Chengqian are half-brothers, their appearance is 108,000 miles apart, and they are not similar at all.
But it's also thanks to them that they are not like, and the character of the light dance sister can follow the Rui King, carefree and happy. And Sister Qingwu's appearance must be more like Princess Rui, otherwise if she looks like King Rui, she will definitely grow into a chubby girl.
"You're Xiao Wu's friend, you're welcome, come and sit here."
Feng Qingwu glanced at the maids and motioned for them to hurry up and serve tea.
The table was already full of all kinds of food, such as Fu Ji cakes, Hook Xiang Ju desserts, Liu's candied fruits, and the rumored small shortbread of friends who had to wait in line for an hour to buy.
Feng Qingwu remembered that she loved to eat these small snacks, so she prepared them for her early.
Liu Yunyi's heart became warmer and warmer, and then Shi Shiran sat down.
King Rui's gaze fell on her again, looking at her with a bit of inquiry, but it didn't make people feel uncomfortable.
"Miss Liu San is young, how can she understand so much. I heard Xiao Wu say that not only can you make such a powerful makeup powder, but you also opened a store specializing in fat powder business, and the business is quite good. ”
Liu Yunyi still said the same thing: "My mother was in the spice business back then, and I know a little bit about this aspect. And before I ...... During my exile in Jiangnan, I was rescued by a kind mother-in-law who taught me this. ”
When Liu Yunyi was in the south of the Yangtze River, the Liu family naturally tried their best to suppress it.
Although Liu Yunyi's reputation doesn't matter, but as the so-called prosperity and loss are lost, if Liu Yunyi's reputation is completely ruined, then Liu Lianyi and Liu Linglong will naturally suffer, and Zhao Yuanyuan will naturally not let this kind of thing happen.
But even if you can hide it from outsiders, you can't hide it from King Rui, after all, the person who rescued Liu Yunyi back to the capital is his daughter.
As a father, King Rui naturally has pity and sympathy for Liu Yunyi, and seeing Liu Yunyi working so hard, he has more appreciation in his heart...... As well as curiosity.
Yes, he was very curious......
"Miss Liu, can you tell me how that makeup powder works like this?" He asked.
Liu Yunyi was a little surprised, but he didn't think much about it, and said slowly: "That makeup powder is not an ordinary makeup powder, I call it foundation." ”
"That's apt." King Rui laughed, thought about it and said, "Now that you are open to do business, it is naturally difficult to tell me all this thing, because I am too abrupt." ”
Liu Yunyi was embarrassed by him.
The dignified prince, who used the word "I" to talk to her throughout the whole process, was enough to surprise her, but King Rui was so careful and considerate, compared with a domineering and shameless man, it was almost killed in minutes.
"Daddy is curious, in that case, why don't you ask Sister Liu to try it for you?" Feng Qingwu suddenly proposed with a grin.
King Rui was shocked.
Liu Yunyi couldn't help but be taken aback.
It's not uncommon for men to wear makeup in this era, but that's only something that happens in fireworks venues, and Feng Qingwu is too much even if it's a joke.
But what made her jaw almost fall off was that King Rui, a fat old man who was over half a hundred years old, really agreed after thinking about it...... Promised......
Liu Yunyi felt that his hands couldn't help but weaken.
She has no experience in applying makeup to men, hey!
Feng Qingwu looked at her nervously and said with a smile: "Sister Liu is out of the way, Daddy just thinks it's novel, so I want to try it, he has been talking to you for a few days, how about you just draw one for him?" ”
This is the prince, how can he be casual......
"Yes, yes, what about the princess?" Liu Yunyi tried to change the subject.
Feng Qingwu directly instructed the maid to bring her gift box, and then replied: "My aunt has an appointment to watch the play, and it will take three or four days to come back." ”
King Rui is so elegant, and Princess Rui is also an idle heart, studying opera all day long, which is well known in the capital.
After a while, the little maid ran over with the gift box, and even the maid came over with a basin of water very knowingly, wet and wrung out the cloth towel, and handed it to Liu Yunyi's hand.
This is simply a knife on his neck, and Liu Yun has to do it if he doesn't want it.
Looking at King Rui's chubby and mellow smiling face, Liu Yunyi couldn't cry or laugh for a while.
It's the first time to put on makeup for a man, but it's not impossible to try it at all, people live in the world, and they always have to do something challenging.
After comforting himself like this, Liu Yunyi nodded in a broken jar: "The sun is too big in this house, I don't know if there is a room with light and bright spots?" ”
