Liu Pan'er put all the tools she bought yesterday on the big table in the main hall, assigned tasks to Li Rong and Ah Fang Ali, and began to grind various pigments.

Liu Paner put the notes she had made in advance on the table and followed the steps above.

Not only did she do this, but she also asked her daughters and nieces to do the same, which was faster and could also exercise the children's hands-on skills.

Liu Paner has always felt that it is good for her to be capable, but if she can make the people around her also capable, then she will achieve more results.

This was especially true in ancient times.

Low labor productivity requires more labor to do more.

She doesn't have three heads and six arms, no convenient logistics and transportation, and no fully automatic machines, so it is particularly important to cultivate talents, especially those who can be trusted by her.

In a small stove, candles are lit and small porcelain pots are placed on it.

The olive oil used was taken out of the space, and the beeswax is now a medicinal herb that can be bought outside.

Olive oil and beeswax were poured in, heated and melted, and Liu Paner put a few more drops of vitamin E. Originally, this thing was packaged one by one, and it took a lot of effort to pinch these vitamins into the bottle.

The non-toxic plant pigments are ground into a powder, then mixed with the dissolved oils and stirred well. Pour in a small, flat, round jar that has been steamed before.

Time will take care of the rest!

Now it's cold, and it's naturally formed.

Today's colors are bright red, aqua red, and orange.

"Aunt Liu, is this lipstick?" Li Fang smelled a faint fragrance, and the color of the lipstick was very beautiful.

For upper-class women, it is a kind of red paper, which can be dyed red with a sip of the mouth. The color is also quite good-looking, but the color is not too much, but it is easy to fade, and the lips are easy to dry and chapped, and it is not moisturized.

Ordinary women in the lower classes don't need it at all. Only on festive days, the mouth is smacked on the red paper on which the pairs are written.

Liu Pan'er nodded, "Yes, I did a lot just now, according to different proportions." We'll test it later, which one works well. ”

Li Rong was eager to try, and her heart was full of joy, "Mother, I can't wait to use it." ”

"No hurry, wait! Let's make nail sanitizer now. Liu Paner cleared the table and began the second development work.

In fact, Li Fang and Li Li have already done some before, and now they need to refine it, and then determine the most appropriate ratio, which can be used as a recipe in the future.

After half an hour, the nail polish is prepared in a variety of colors, including red, aqua, and orange, as well as green, blue, and purple.

Liu Paner recorded these in detail and made them in such proportions in the future.

After freezing, the lipstick has been set.

Use a small piece of bamboo to pick out a little bit, place it on your lips, and gently blend it on your lips. After comparison, a ratio of just right was selected and settled.

Liu Paner missed the lipstick tube in her previous life very much, and it came out after twisting it. Although the principle is simple, it is especially difficult to make it with existing materials.

Therefore, Liu Paner could only give up and choose filling.

Liu Paner finally found a way to match a small oval bamboo piece to apply lipstick.

Something that is made, everyone can't wait to use lipstick.

Liu Paner was newly married, wearing a red embroidered padded jacket, and the lipstick was red, which made her more and more colorful.

Thinking that one was given to Mrs. Gu, these colors were not suitable. Old Madam Gu usually likes to wear sauce-colored and purple clothes, and her skin is very white, so she concocted purple and dark red lipstick.

In one go, with the help of her daughter and niece, Liu Paner made a total of ten sets of lipstick or nail polish.

Each set, complete in color.

Packed in delicate bottles and cans, it looks good.

Placed in a small box, as a New Year's gift, novel and good-looking.

Later, Liu Paner and Li Rong calculated the price and found that it took two taels of silver to make this set. Some things are still taken out of space.

Li Rong blinked, "Mother, the cost is a bit high, even if our shop is sold, it may not be able to sell." ”

Liu Pan'er also nodded, "Yes, the cost of lipstick is too high, and this olive oil is a kind of oil squeezed from fruits." Not only is it expensive, but the production volume is also very small. Now is really not suitable to make and sell, I am going to plant more olive trees, have enough raw materials, and then make lipstick. However, nail polish is low cost and can be done more. ”

"It's a pity, how pretty!" Li Fang held a bottle of water-red lipstick, reluctant to put it down, she liked this color.

After she applied it, she looked good and looked good.

Several of the children were disappointed and felt that it was not perfect.

Liu chuckled, "You have to eat the rice one bite at a time, you can't do it now, you can still do it in the future, why are you in such a hurry?" Now we have a cloth dyeing workshop at home, and there are two cloth businesses, all of which need people, so we can't be in a hurry. By the way, after the New Year, spring is coming, and spring plowing is coming soon. Let's talk in front of Lord Gu and those adults in the capital about trying to plant two crops of rice, adding up to a thousand catties per mu. Although making money is important, we can't put the cart before the horse and live up to the emperor's grace, which is the foundation of our life. ”

Everyone was stunned and looked at Liu in shock.

Liu was stared at like this by everyone, a little overwhelmed, a little nervous, and touched his face, "What's wrong?" Am I wrong? ”

Liu Pan'er smiled and shook her head, "Sister Xiaohua, why didn't you say anything wrong?" It's just too right, money is such a thing, you can never finish earning it. We are able to gain a foothold here because of the output in the field. Lipstick is a thing used by the upper class, which can only add to people's lives, but cannot help more people. ”

"Besides, the money is inexhaustible, and now there is a shortage of various raw materials, and the cost of making it is high and it is not cost-effective. Therefore, our focus is still on the fields. For example, I said before that the iron plough used now cannot be turned. We planted terraced fields, which were very short and often had to be turned, which was very troublesome. If the iron plough can turn directly, the plough will be cultivated faster. ”

Li Dabao nodded in agreement, "Mother, then let's start studying this iron plow that can turn, right?" If you can really increase the speed of cultivating land, you may even get a reward from Your Majesty! ”

Li Fang thought for a while and said, "Aunt Liu, we are not good at doing this, and I don't like to do it, but I must be optimistic about the business of the cloth village and not let you worry." ”

Liu Pan'er looked at the three girls' homes and nodded, "You three little girls are in charge of the business of the cloth village and the production and sales of nail polish. Dabao, Xiaohuajie and Dabao's work focus is still on farming. Do you have faith? ”

"Yes!" Everyone shouted in unison, full of confidence.
