After two days, Ding Ji's carriage came to Dawan Village and sent two beehives to Liuli. Liuli was overjoyed and felt that the shopkeeper Zhou was really reliable.

"How much money did you spend?" Liuli asked the guy and asked him to bring it to Shopkeeper Zhou.

The guy hurriedly waved his hand: "The shopkeeper said, this hive happens to be a beekeeper who doesn't want it, it doesn't cost money, and Erniang doesn't have to be polite." ”

After sending Ding Ji's buddy away, Liuli happily took the hive into the yard, went directly to the kitchen, and began to extract beeswax.

Using the steaming method, she really made beeswax, and now the necessary raw materials for making lipstick are complete, glass and coral, grass together, the cat in the kitchen, began to make lipstick.

According to a certain proportion, add grease to the powder, stir and grind slowly, wait for the fat and powder to mix evenly, then put in beeswax, heat it with water until the beeswax melts into liquid, pour it into the box that originally held the powder while it is hot, and after cooling, it becomes an ancient version of lipstick.

It's just that this one made of glass is more like a blush than a lipstick.

Coral watched his eyes widen on the side, and when it cooled into a grease, he couldn't wait to hold it in his hand: "This is it?" ”

"Just try it." Liuli doesn't know if this lipstick is a success, but the appearance is not bad.

She smeared some with her little finger, the texture was soft, similar to the lipstick of her previous life, and then applied it carefully to her lips, it was really moist and bright, and the color was easy to apply evenly.

Coral followed her example and wiped some with her little finger. "Wow, this rouge works so well." Holding this small box, I suddenly couldn't put it down.

Liuli said with a smile: "It's not the best yet." ”

"Huh? Is there anything better? Coral asked stupidly.

"Nature." Liuli smiled mysteriously, although the lipstick inside was made, but there was still an important thing missing, that is, the lipstick tube, if it was placed in a box like ordinary rouge, it would inevitably be ordinary, since she had done it, she had to do her best.

In the afternoon, Liuli went to find Carpenter Chen and asked him to make some molds for lipstick and tubes for lipstick.

Liuli even drew with a drawing, and finally made it clear what she was going to do.

"This shape is easy to make", Carpenter Chen, as an old carpenter who has been accumulating years, it is not difficult to make such a delicate object, "It's just that Erniang said that the mechanism that can be lifted by rotating the bottom still needs to be studied." ”

Together with the organ, Liuli was not very proficient, so she had to hand it over to a professional to study, and she repeatedly described the appearance of the lipstick tube, and then went home to wait for news.

During this period, he received a letter from Zhou Xiaoshu who dragged people back, only saying that everything was going well, and that Liuli did not have to worry, the first foot shop was already quite rudimentary, and after it was done, he was going to Zhengwu County to carry out the work of the second foot shop.

Liuli took Coral and Xiaocao to Rouge Pavilion to buy two boxes of Jiayan powder, and this time she also bought a box of pink and a box of rose-red powder, but the powder is not as delicate as Jiayan powder, and the price is much cheaper.

After bringing back these two boxes of powder, I carefully ground them again.

At the same time, there was also good news from Carpenter Chen's side, and the thing was done.

Liuli went to take it with great interest, only to see that the wooden lipstick tube revealed a simple and natural atmosphere, the appearance and the inside were polished smooth, and it was brushed again with clear oil, which looked oily and shiny.

She tried to spin it around, and sure enough, it was as flexible as the lipstick from her previous life.

"Great, that's what I want!" Liuli was pleasantly surprised, and immediately asked Carpenter Chen to make ten more.

This thing is only the first thing that is difficult to make, knowing the method of the mechanism, it is easy to make thousands of more, and this thing is small, and the leftovers sawed when he makes furniture can be made, so Carpenter Chen also happily agreed.

Liuli took this small lipstick tube and a row of molds, went back to make lipstick, it was much finer, and the watery liquid made was poured directly into the mold, and after drying, it was fixed in the lipstick tube, and the lid was closed, which was no different from the lipstick in the previous life.

Coral was surprised when he saw this small and delicate thing: "How can this be used?" ”

"Easy!" Liuli pulled off the lid and swirled slightly at the bottom, and the brightly colored paste slowly emerged from the tube.

Liuli directly took the paste and applied it to her lips, the bright color made her lips delicate, and the grass and coral were stunned.

"This, this is amazing!" The grass stammered, and the eyes were straight.

"I want it too! I want it too! Coral howled high, and Ruri knew she meant she was going to do it too.

"When Carpenter Chen's pipe is done, let's do it again." Ruri smiled.

Carpenter Chen really did not disappoint Liuli, in this batch of lipstick tubes, there are two round, Liuli first got the square, because the square is easy to make, after Carpenter Chen made it, he tried two round tubes, which are also very exquisite.

Liuli directly gave two taels of silver.

"It's not going to be done." Carpenter Chen said busily, he felt that Liuli made this thing for a little girl to play, and he didn't plan to ask for money. What's more, his little daughter-in-law got the errand of collecting eggs because of Liuli, and she made a lot of money.

Even if Liuli stopped making cakes later, she also introduced this work to Ding Kee Restaurant, and the shopkeeper Zhou of Ding Kee Restaurant saw Liuli's face and asked them to continue to collect eggs.

Now the youngest son and his daughter-in-law have also collected eggs together, and the money earned has made the young couple live a solid life. The eldest son inherited his carpenter's trade, and the younger son also had a regular income, and the family was very grateful to Liuli.

"It's just made of wood from the corners of the corners, it's not worth much money at all, Erniang quickly put away the silver." Carpenter Chen said busily.

"How can it be done, although this thing is small, it also takes a lot of work, I can't take things for nothing and not give money." The glass does not follow.

"If you want to talk about money, Erniang helped us make that egg business, wouldn't it be more money." Carpenter Chen's daughter-in-law also spoke.

"One yard to one yard." Liuli said: "Besides, I didn't do it this time, I may have to do it in large quantities in the future, don't you want to do it in vain every time?" ”

"This ......" Hearing her say that she would do it in large quantities, Carpenter Chen hesitated for a moment, after all, it does take some effort to make such a delicate thing.

After thinking for a while, he finally said: "Then it won't be as much as two taels, so Erniang will give a manual fee of 500 yuan." ”

Liuli couldn't compete with the old couple, and finally left 500 yuan to go back.

These ten lipstick tubes, Liuli handed over to the eager coral to do, and Zhou Xiaocao also made two, she only watched from the side, and gave two words of guidance, and did not do anything.

Ten lipsticks, five bright red, three pink and two rose, most of the good face powder bought from Rouge Pavilion is left, and the other two boxes of powder are almost not missing.

"Will you keep one for each of you?" Liuli asked the two young, although they didn't need lipstick at this age, in the end it was their first time to make it, and Liuli wanted to ask each person to keep one as a souvenir.

Who knew that Coral was surprised when he heard it: "One? And what about the rest? ”

Liuli smiled indifferently: "Naturally, I took it and sold it." ”
