Chapter 237
"Really?" When Wei Zi heard that Liuli had decided to open a shop in Shangjing, she was excited, "Erniang has decided." ”
"Seriously." Liuli nodded, "It's just that I'm going to be fortunate with the shopkeeper Wei again." ”
Wei Zi waved his hand: "It's not hard, it's not hard, I'm still looking forward to the day when our Rouge Pavilion can be opened all over the country." ”
"Hopefully one day." Ruri smiled.
The original shop in Beijing is no longer there, and the Rouge Pavilion has opened a branch, so it is natural to find a new shop and find people, fortunately, Wei Zi has previous experience, and there are also acquaintances in Beijing, so after arranging the affairs of the Rouge Pavilion here, she packed her luggage and set off.
Coral went with her.
Originally, Liuli didn't plan to let Coral follow, but Coral heard that after opening a branch in Beijing, she had to go together, and coupled with Wei Zi's intercession, Liuli finally agreed.
As soon as Coral and Wei Zi left, the business of Rouge Pavilion was about to be in charge of Liuli. However, there are Fandel and Xiaocao, except that they are busy on weekdays, it doesn't matter.
At this time, the Zhao Mansion was in the secret room.
"The manpower and the news have already been disseminated," Azeryu reported, "and it will soon attract the attention of the imperial court." ”
"Be careful in everything you do." Zhao Mingxu explained.
Ah Ce replied in a low voice, and said, "Doctor Luo doesn't know what he's been studying recently, and he asked me for ambergris that day." ”
"Ambergris?" Zhao Mingxu was stunned, ambergris is a royal spice, and now Emperor Zhengxuan can use it justifiably, if the rest of the people are found to use ambergris without permission, it is not a problem to be convicted of trespassing.
"What does he want this thing for?" Zhao Mingxu frowned.
"I said that I was going to do an experiment," Ace said, "My subordinates have already given it to him, and I will report it to my son." ”
Zhao Mingxu nodded and didn't say anything else.
Although ambergris is a royal spice, if ordinary people want to find it, it is not that they can't find it, but they don't dare to use it.
Therefore, Zhao Mingxu didn't take it seriously.
In addition to being busy, Liuli took the time to send another fairy jade dew water without adding fragrance to Zhao Mingxu. The rest of the time, I mostly help out at the Rouge Pavilion.
Now in the Rouge Pavilion, the people who sell things remain the same, mainly Fan Dai and Xiao Xing, in the small courtyard at the back, Xiaocao specializes in making lipstick, and the rest of the people work together, there are two women with great strength who are responsible for stirring the cauldron full of soap, and the solution in it is in a pre-configured proportion, they only need to be responsible for stirring.
There are also four or five young daughters-in-law who are responsible for pouring the mixed soap into molds, and then placing these molds in specific places to wait for natural solidification.
The extraction of glycerin is now made by glass, and the extracted glycerin, according to a certain proportion, is added with water and perfume, and then put into a small bottle.
Everything was in order, and it was really good at first. But gradually, Liuli realized that something was wrong.
The earliest problem was discovered by Fandel, and the soap produced was relatively small for several days, but the amount of raw materials such as lard and caustic soda did not decrease.
"Will someone steal it?" Fan Dai hesitated.
Liuli thought about it, maybe it's because the ratio is wrong recently, but it's the relationship between the bottom of the soap? Later, she went to see the mixing and proportioning of the soap in person, and found that there was no problem, but after a while, the amount of soap that came out was further reduced.
Now, even if Liuli doesn't want to believe it, she knows that among those who work, there is probably a thief.
I went back and thought about it all night, and when Liuli came on the second day, he was quiet, and for those who worked, as usual, until he was about to get off work, Liuli announced that everyone was fortunate during this time, and Liuli was the east, and invited them to eat outside.
When everyone heard this, they were overjoyed, and they followed Liuli with excitement on their faces.
During the meal, Liuli even persuaded these people to drink some wine, and after the wine and food were full, he took out a stack of clothes, all of which were of similar colors and styles, saying that he would wear them when he would work in the store in the future.
The clothes were bought by Liuli in advance in the ready-to-wear store, and at this time she took it out and said with a smile: "It's all ready-to-wear, and I don't know if it fits or not, let's try it first, if there is something inappropriate, take it back to the shop to change." ”
When everyone heard that there were still clothes and hair, they were immediately even more happy, and they had just drunk some wine, and they were already vigilant, and happily took their clothes to try.
Liuli gave Xiao Cao Fandel and Xiao Xing a color, and the three of them understood, and followed into the room, taking advantage of the fact that everyone was trying on clothes, rummaging through their original clothes.
This rummaging turned around and I really found something.
Three of the five people in charge of pouring the mold turned out small bottles and opened them to reveal the soap that had not yet fully solidified.
How can this result not make Liuli feel cold, they are all neighbors in the same village, Liuli hired them to work, but also for the friendship of the same village, thinking about giving them a chance to work, but I didn't expect these people to not only be grateful, but also stolen.
"It's really ungrateful, our Rouge Pavilion gave them a good job, and even the wages are a lot higher than elsewhere, and these few are not satisfied, and they have stolen from us." Xiao Xing hated the way.
"I don't know how long they've been stealing," Fandel said, "from the moment they found out that the soap was missing, I think they probably started stealing our soap like this recently." ”
"How to deal with these three people, do you want to report to the official?" Xiaocao asked.
Suppressing the shock and anger in his heart, Liuli shook his head: "This idea, even if it is reported to the official, it is not a big deal." ”
"What then? Could it be that they stole it for nothing? Xiao Xing said hatefully.
While speaking, everyone had already come out of it, and it was inevitable that there would be inappropriate places in the ready-to-wear, so they reported them one by one, and Liuli asked Xiaocao to write it down and take it back to change.
Only the three of them had different faces, holding their clothes cowardly and not speaking, Liuli looked at them and smiled: "Is there anything wrong with the clothes of the three sisters-in-law?" ”
"Also...... It's okay, just make do with it, don't bother to change it. One of them stammered.
"Then how can it be done", Liuli was still smiling, "From now on, it will be the uniform of our Rouge Pavilion workers, and it is not good to do work if it is a little ill-fitting, so let's take it back and change it." ”
When the words fell, Xiao Xing couldn't help but snatch the clothes from the hands of the three people, and the three of them looked at the empty arms, and were a little stunned for a while.
After the three of them changed back into their clothes, they immediately found that something was wrong, the small bottle containing the soap liquid hidden in the clothes was gone, and the three of them did not have it at the same time, and they immediately knew that it might have been searched by the owner.
