When he said this, through the side window of the hall, the soft moonlight blended with the lights in the house, making the color of Zheng Dan's long skirt a little more three-dimensional, as if it was endowed with life in full swing, giving people the feeling of "the national color is drunk in the morning, and the sky is fragrant and dyed at night".

Not long ago, after reaching an agreement with Zhao Qing to learn swords, she naturally had the idea of celebrating this in her heart, and when she saw that there was indeed beauty in the dinner, she drank a little, and her expression seemed to be slightly drunk, but it did not affect her clear thinking:

"'Image endorsement', it sounds, this is indeed a good idea of cooperation, and Guan Zhong seems to have similarities with letting others buy Shibi under the banner of 'Chaotianzi', but Zhou Tianzi has been replaced by a few of us. So, how are you going to plan in the details? ”

"In the past, the price of horses was ten times that of horses, and it can be seen that if the world's famous people can connect with specific products, they will be able to open up the sales channels of goods, and the sales volume can increase significantly, and at the same time, it will also save the cost of publicity."

Hearing Zheng Dan's understanding, Gao Yu nodded unhurriedly and replied sincerely: "Compared with ordinary facial makeup powder, 'Stomach Makeup Powder' is the principle of our stomach family's refined medicine, a collection of more than 2,000 kinds of exotic flowers and plants, extracted into the world's treasures, with excellent beauty effects. ”

"As long as you admit to the outside world, applying this kind of makeup powder from time to time is indeed beneficial to your appearance, can moisturize the skin, permanently beautify your face, and the effect is similar to the beauty elixir, and the stomach will also give corresponding rewards here."

The so-called "makeup powder" refers to the foundation and base makeup used in makeup, which are mainly divided into two kinds, the first is the powder made of corn, herbs, pearl shells, etc., which is the reason why there is "rice" in the "powder", and the second is the powder made of minerals such as lead powder and tin powder, so there is a saying of "washing away the lead".

It is said that the king has made great contributions to the invention and promotion of "makeup powder" and rouge, and belongs to the ancestor of the beauty industry.

In today's world, after a long time, powder makeup has also spread to a wide area, regardless of status, has become a custom, and is not limited to women, the men of Qi and Chu are also quite good at makeup.

Of course, unlike rich people who can afford to wear makeup anytime and anywhere, ordinary folk women will only apply Zhu Fu powder when they get married.

There is no doubt that even in the barbarian and uncivilized areas, cosmetics are hot selling goods in short supply, and as long as they are of high quality, they will be sought after by high-level aristocrats.

Although most of their cultivation qualifications are more outstanding, most of them are at the level of one in a thousand or one in a thousand, and it is difficult to reach the realm of permanent appearance when they are still young, which has this demand;

Considering that makeup can not only maintain the appearance and add color, but also add icing on the cake, so that a beauty can show different styles and charms by changing makeup, which can be applied to various occasions, it is even more indispensable.

Since the evacuation of the Wu army, there has been no war in Vietnam for more than ten years, the economy has recovered, trade has been stable, everyone has been able to have enough food and clothing, some aristocratic families have not been able to pay attention to daily food and utensils, and the prices of luxury goods such as high-end clothes and jewelry have risen all the way.

Although the city of Yueguosi and Jia City have corresponding regulatory measures for basic daily necessities, standardize the market price, and divide them into A, B, C, D, etc. according to the quality, and sell them at the guide price, but the price of luxury goods is not controlled and contains huge profits.

At present, it seems that after being born in the Si Nong family, which is responsible for managing finances, Gao Yu's business acumen is quite good, and with the help of Yue Wang's order to search for beauties, he plans to develop the eight beauties selected by the country into "image endorsements" to promote his own "makeup powder" products.

Although clothing and jewelry are also luxury goods with a high degree of relevance to beauty, these two types of things, whether or not they use the brand of Gas, outsiders can know at a glance, far less than cosmetics that are difficult to verify, and the launch of the product "makeup powder" is indeed just right.

Also in order to make a name for himself, the White Deer Sword Academy's plan to send someone to serve as a bodyguard for Shipin is obviously a big difference compared to this interlocking endorsement advertisement, at least the vast majority of people must be more concerned about why the beauties are so beautiful, rather than what guards they have recruited.

If the "makeup powder" of the stomach is really good, and there is no false publicity, the use of "image endorsement" to promote, you can definitely get huge profits, if there is a proportion of dividends in the remuneration he gives, it will undoubtedly be an amazing income for the spokesperson.

After tasting a few mouthfuls of the soup on the table, Zhao Qing turned his head and winked at Zheng Dan, secretly using the storage jade pendant to fill the dishes in the dinggui, preparing to take them back to share with his family, while also waiting for the next move of the stomach.

Although this can be regarded as a good thing that can easily reap a lot of profits, she will definitely not directly agree to irresponsibly endorse a type of product that has not yet been tested, otherwise, if the merchant secretly deceives the buyer, the spokesperson will also be implicated accordingly.

"What is the specific effect of your makeup powder?" Not far away, Yuebo put down the dagger in her hand that was cutting the dried meat, chewed the food in her mouth carefully, beckoned to the maid she brought over, and asked lightly.

Immediately afterwards, Yuebo's twin sister Xuanbo took a sip of juice and continued: "If we can audition first, and then explain the principle in detail, we may be able to relax and agree to your 'endorsement' cooperation." ”

Zheng Dan casually knocked on the wine lord who had drunk most of it, and asked: "The sects of the major qi refining schools, such as the Yunmen Sect, one of the seven sects of our Dayue Huiji Mountain, have many cases of selling 'Dingyan Dan' to the outside world, and the price is about five hundred gold. ”

"And the next product 'Dingyan Dan' in the material refining, you can get 'Yangyan Dan', the price ranges from more than ten gold to dozens of gold, and then take the next product to refine, you can get 'Xiang Muscle Pill', 'Jade Muscle Powder' and other defective products. As for alchemy raw materials such as dragon smoked grass and centella asiatica, they can also be sold for a high price of fifteen gold. ”

"And look at the coastal areas, there are often fishing boats to hunt deep-sea whale salamanders, one can refine tens of thousands of catties of blubber, with a variety of pearl shell corals, to make plasters to apply to the body, can increase skin activity, a liter of about one gold, the effect is similar to the" jade muscle powder ".

"There are dragons and giant turtles diving in the rivers, if you can take their beads and wear them on your body, you can calm your mind and concentrate on it, and all poisons will not invade, and the effect of retaining your face is no less than the effect of fixing your face pill, and it has the ability to prolong your life, which is worth more than 100,000 yuan."

"Juzhangjun, who is in the traditional territory of the sea, has always maintained the acquisition of such treasures, and has accumulated over the generations, Jiaozhu and Yuanzhu are probably dozens of them, and they have never been given as gifts to high-ranking and powerful people, and they have been cultivated to be profound, so as to have the effect of making friends."

"Obviously, in the high-end, mid-end and low-end markets of beauty drugs, a series of industries have already been carved up by the big forces, and if you want to win one acre and three points of land from them, you will definitely encounter the resistance they launched and take great risks."

"Since you want to compete with these giants with thousands of years of history, but you don't know what level of output your 'makeup powder' can reach, and whether there is a unique sales channel? And how much are you going to price, and how does it compare to many of the things I've mentioned? ”

Zhao Qing was also a little surprised when he heard about so many beauty elixirs for the first time, and at the same time knew very well that the transaction in this area was by no means a simple matter of money and goods, but because of the semi-monopoly nature of its commodities, it deeply involved in the political level and indirectly affected the situation on a large scale.

Characters like Xi Fei and Xia Ji are different from the rumored Daji and Bao Xi, and they have indeed caused wars between countries, and Nanzi, for example, is currently almost the controller of the country, and if you offer the best beauty treasures to people like them, you will definitely achieve great gains.

Understanding the meaning of Zheng Dan's words, Gao Yu waved his hand to remove the special musical instruments of Yue Di such as the Sentence Ring, Qian Yu, Zheng, Zhenduo, Ding Ning and so on in the hall, stopped the singing and dancing on the field, and casually pointed to the four maids, told them to stay where they were, and sent someone to move the four dressers.

Apparently prepared, he took out four delicate porcelain boxes in the shape of a clover from a cabinet on the side, and gently threw them at the four maids, so that the porcelain boxes fell into the hands of the maids, and then they were opened and placed on the table.

As a standard dresser, there are all kinds of makeup items such as copper mirrors, rouge, gouache, eyebrow pencils, bone combs and other daughters' makeup on the table, and a basin of water with a few petals floating on the side, exuding a faint fragrance.

In the direction that could be clearly seen by the four people who were being entertained, the maids washed their faces with the water in the basin and gently wiped them with a soft silk scarf until their skin was clean and refreshed, which was the removal of their original makeup.

Immediately afterwards, facing the shiny bronze mirror, the maids gently picked up some makeup powder with their fingertips, as if holding up a white cloud, and between the fingers dancing lightly, the makeup powder fluttered on her face like smoke.

In an instant, the faces of the four maids, who were only delicate and delicate, immediately showed a delicate luster like porcelain, like the snow gently touched by the moonlight, quiet and energetic, and like pearls in the morning dew, crystal clear, which made people feel refreshed and happy.

Skillfully applying the makeup powder evenly to the face with a delicate small brush, every detail is handled just right, and then rubbing it with a new soft silk scarf, their facial skin becomes fairer and more delicate, naturally a little more elegant and feminine.

What surprised Zhao Qing was that in her induction, the four maids who had no cultivation foundation had a faint strength on their faces, which fluctuated with the flow of medicinal power, as if they were running a special beauty cultivation method.

"The external appearance and the characteristics it manifests are actually closely related to the five internal organs and five breaths in our body. When the five qi are abundant, the face is radiant; If the five qi decays, the complexion will be dull. ”

As the four maids took the initiative to let Zhao Qing and the others check, Gao Yu opened his mouth on the side and explained: "Therefore, the 'Stomach Makeup Powder' and the matching beauty cultivation method, both the outside and the inside, make the internal and external yin and yang five elements of the qi circulation not leak, and naturally have the effect of nourishing and beautifying. ”

"As long as you use it a lot, the level of this 'Elite Alchemy' will become higher and higher, and its effect will gradually increase as your cultivation deepens. In other words, the deeper the practice, the better the beauty effect will be, and it will not become invalid due to the discontinuation of the 'Stomach Powder'. ”

"Generally speaking, compared with the popular beauty elixir with fixed efficacy, the 'Stomach Powder' is closer to the nine-turn Flying Snow Pill that Xiao Shi refined for Qin Mugong's daughter Langyu in the past, and each turn is a new world."

"It sounds like you're quite accomplished in this area, and it seems like you're quite a bit ahead of the beauty industry today." Turning his head and whispering a few words to the maid who was carrying him, Yuebo said calmly: "As long as the output is acceptable, I should be able to have a good cooperation intention with Xuanbo." ”

"That's right," I don't know when I let two of my subordinates enter the hall, and engraved the swirling waves of a thin jade plate with a pen, so that the accountant and the name around him preliminarily checked the content of the cooperation contract, and then asked one of them to hand it to the stomach to complete it, and then said lightly:

"The premise is that half of the channels you use to promote and promote your stomach need to be shared with us, and in addition to endorsing 'makeup powder', you can also carry out some actions that are controlled only by the two of us, so as to interact with our original plan......"

Although they have seen the physical demonstration of the makeup powder, Yuebo and Xuanbo did not immediately believe the statement of Gaoyu, but they also had the intention of cooperating with it, and did not plan to obtain profit dividends from this risky project, but were ready to start from another direction to ensure that they could get full benefits.

"Well......" glanced at the densely written plan on the other side of Xuanbo, Zheng Dan also blinked, feeling that the other party's preparation was really sufficient, and he didn't know if he should compete with him for the position of image endorsement, and suddenly his heart moved slightly, and he couldn't help asking:

"If you apply this makeup powder on your face, and then run that 'Elite Alchemy', since its effect can change with the depth of cultivation, will it affect your daily cultivation and combat induction of the aura of heaven and earth?"

Asking if makeup interferes with the practice is undoubtedly an extremely strange question, because in the eyes of ordinary people, a thin layer of powder, even if it does have a negative effect, is probably less than one millionth of the whole, and clothes that are much thicker and cover a larger area should have a greater impact.

For ninety out of nine female cultivators in the world, being able to obtain a top-grade Dingyan Pill has already satisfied nearly half of their pursuit when they embarked on the path of cultivation, and naturally they will not carefully ponder this seemingly simple, but in fact quite complex problem that contains a large number of changing factors.

The fluctuation of mood and mentality before and after makeup, the adsorption or rejection of specific aura by the materials in cosmetics, the barrier effect of powdered substances on the outside world, and the promotion of spiritual energy on spiritual practice...... All these factors are combined, and only by personal experiments can the corresponding conclusions be drawn.

There is no doubt that if he didn't really care about his future cultivation, and he really had the willingness to make an image endorsement for Gaoyu's products, and was ready to use it in person when the time came, Zheng Dan would not have raised such an unexpected tricky question.

……

Suddenly asked such a trivial question, Stomach Yu couldn't help but be a little surprised, and found that he didn't seem to have tested this effect, suppressed the inexplicable irritability in his heart, he quickly regained his calm, and replied succinctly and clearly:

"When a fallen leaf drifts into the forest, and the wind and rain wash away, who will pay attention? However, in my personal use of 'Stomach Powder', it should still have a slight benefit because it contains a rich aura and can moisturize the body. ”

Although he seemed to have answered appropriately and generously, he couldn't find the slightest mistake, but Zhao Qing, who was not far away, still keenly noticed the unnatural feeling of the flashing face of the stomach, and doubts were born in his heart.

According to common sense, the other party may have summoned his subordinates to study pharmacology for many years in order to poison his uncle for medicine, but it is very unlikely that he wants to break through the threshold of technology at once and directly surpass the giants of the beauty industry in Vietnam from scratch.

According to his senses, the maids had actually only been trained in the use of "Stomach Powder" in recent days, and although they had served here faithfully for many years, they had never heard of it before......

Perhaps, this can be explained by a good job of secrecy, but it is really unreasonable not to have a sufficient number of trial subjects, and it is unlikely that they will secretly control another group of girls to participate in experimental research and development for a long time.

All in all, Zhao Qing carefully examined all kinds of clues, and did not believe that Gao Yu could really develop such a superb makeup powder technique under the extremely limited number of tests, because she had a premonition in advance that this trip seemed to be dangerous, so she asked Zheng Dan to help ask targeted questions, and finally found out the flaw.

"Jinghua Alchemy" is a beauty cultivation method that non-cultivators can also practice by themselves through elixir, but it is claimed to be able to increase its effect with cultivation, and can be practiced to the extreme, in this process, there must have been a lot of normal practice when applying makeup.

However, the difference between makeup and non-makeup should have been detected in a few tests, but the stomach did not know much about the details, and the answers to the questions were obviously made up, which was undoubtedly very strange.

Perhaps, the formula of this "Stomach Makeup Powder" originated from a big force outside the Yue Kingdom, and the reason why it fell into the hands of Stomach Yu is most likely due to the unsightly interest relationship...... Moreover, this relationship of interest was concluded a few days ago.

Zhao Qing's mind moved slightly, he was already full of thoughts, staring at the stomach that was suspected of colluding with foreign enemies, still silent on the surface, took a sip of the wine jue, and suddenly a thought flashed:

As we all know, advanced cultivation can play a role in beautifying the face, and there is even a miracle in the world that the "Jinghua Alchemy" purely increases beauty, so can the "beauty" that is superior to the world be transformed into a boost to cultivation?

A woman like Zheng Dan, who has the appearance of one in a billion, although she also has middle-to-upper-class cultivation talent and top-class tenacious willpower, if she wants to really give full play to her strengths, theoretically, she should start from this aspect.

……

As if he didn't intend to continue the delicate topic of "the influence of makeup on spiritual practice", he coughed, and his fingers, which seemed to have become thinner during the dinner time, poked out his fingers, opened a large bronze cabinet that shone brightly, and took out treasures wrapped in silk.

Zhao Qing looked straight and saw that on the luxurious and soft silk cloth, there were many pieces of agate crystal hibiscus, agate crystal crescent, turquoise crescent moon, turquoise water chestnut and other jewelry, as well as jade rings, jade belt hooks, jade flying phoenix and many other precious jewelry.

In particular, the jade flying phoenix that is put out, the jade is crystal clear, slightly colorful, pondering finely, faintly visible feather patterns, carved with a head and tail to spread its wings and fly hard, the overall shape is slightly inverted "phoenix" word flying phoenix, and other rings are strung together with gold wire, forming a beautiful jade ornament component.

As for the Huang jade, it also reflects the Yuedi style, with two ends carved with a symmetrical variant of the dragon extending to the middle, with a protruding ridge on the head and ridge, and small holes carved at both ends that resemble an eye, decorated with pan patterns on both sides, or semi-embossed moire on one side.

"Actually, you are willing to go to the banquet and listen to me talk about the trivial 'makeup powder' sales plan, which has made the stomach very grateful. Whether you decide to cooperate in the matter of 'image endorsement' or not, these precious jewels are a thank you gift from my stomach. ”

I saw that Gao Yu asked people to withdraw a few feasts from his own side, personally picked up a table of dazzling ornaments with both hands, and moved forward to the center of the hall, indicating that it was up to Zhao Qing, Zheng Dan and others to choose, which was extraordinarily generous, which made the environment and atmosphere have some indescribable changes.

As if he suddenly thought of something, after he put down the table, he ordered the waiter to take a few fresh and tender peaches with white and pink inside, and put them on a large silver plate, which was specially placed on Zhao Qing's side, obviously knowing something about her ape, and specially sent peaches that the apes loved.

"Ah Qing, what do you think?" Before she went to the middle of the hall to choose the jade ornament that was given to her, Zheng Dan walked to the bead curtain that separated her from Zhao Qing, stretched out her finger and flicked it on a pearl, and asked softly, wanting to listen to the other party's opinion.

……

At the same time, thousands of miles away, in the depths of Huiji Mountain, under the extremely dense jungle and chaotic trees, opposite a square stone of a few feet in size, full of chaotic lines, sat a girl in a goose-yellow robe.

I saw that the girl in the yellow shirt suddenly opened her clear eyes, causing a faint vibration, causing the long-standing dew at the end of her long hair to fall quietly, falling in the middle of her open palm, and then with a gentle flick of her palm, it soared and hit the stone face in front of her.

In the next moment, a dazzling scene suddenly appeared, as if due to the breaking of some kind of stable state, the chaotic texture on the square stone suddenly changed rapidly, and transformed into an indiscernible afterimage, showing a different pattern at each moment.

After staring at the stone face for a while, the girl seemed to realize that her comprehension had failed this time, and she couldn't help but sigh lightly, took out a jade pendant engraved with the nine-tailed fox pattern from her arms, and muttered to herself:

"It seems that it is difficult for me to do it alone. I don't know if the friend Sister made can grasp the charm of this stone, so that this opportunity will not be wasted? ”
