Coming out of the Tianyun Pavilion, Wei Ruo walked away quickly, and Xiumei followed behind, waiting for a long way.

Xiumei breathed a sigh of relief, and then asked Wei Ruo: "Miss, why didn't you just ask King Jing about the Nine Emperors?" ”

"It's probably not much use to ask him, when it comes to the Nine Emperor Princes, it's nothing more than sick, weak, eccentric, and brutal, people outside say so, I've heard it countless times, and my ears are going to sound calloused."

"But His Royal Highness King Jing should have more contact with the Nine Emperor Princes, maybe he can know more. Maybe you will also know why the emperor wants to marry the young lady to the Nine Emperors. ”

"The Nine Emperors don't have much contact with outsiders, and since he is in poor health, he has spent most of his time recuperating in his own residence since he was found, and King Jing may not know much more about him. As for the emperor's thoughts, I'm afraid I can't ask anything. I still didn't take this risk to ask King Jing, in case he noticed something, it would be worth the loss. ”

It was mentioned in the original book that the current emperor is a very thoughtful monarch, and after the death of Empress Xu, he no longer trusts anyone around him, including many of his princes.

This is also the reason why there has been no reserve for so many years.

It's a pity that there is no such person as the Nine Emperors in the original book, so Wei Ruo is still confused about the existence of this person.

Wei Ruo patted Xiumei's arm: "It's okay, your young lady and I are not so easily defeated, even if there is no way to change the fact of being given marriage for the time being, your young lady and I will not be negative and decadent because of this." ”

"Well, I know, young lady, you will only be defeated, but not defeated!" Xiumei replied.

Wei Ruo smiled: "Let's go, go and see my rouge gouache shop, don't think about those things that you can't figure out for the time being, let's use this effort to make money." ”

She can't change her marriage for the time being, but she doesn't want to be idle either, so she keeps busy when she should be busy.

In this way, even if she can't change her fate of marrying someone she doesn't want to marry, she still does what she wants to do when she can live happily and earns some money for herself.

Wei Ruo named the soon-to-be-opened rouge gouache shop Waiting for the Moon Residence, and chose a relatively remote address, not in the bustling center, but in an inconspicuous corner at the end of Baihu Avenue.

In front is a bunk, and in the back is a large yard.

It cost Wei Ruo five thousand taels of silver to buy it, which is also a lot of silver for Wei Ruo at this stage.

Wei Ruo likes two points here, one is that although the shop is a little off, it is the only way to go to the center of Baihu Avenue.

Second, the courtyard behind this shop is relatively large, and Wei Ruo used it as a workshop for the production of rouge gouache and a place to settle the Zhao brothers and others.

The Zhao brothers and the six villagers from Stone Village who came with them have been working here for a while.

They now produce four products: skin cream, whitening cream, peach blossom rouge, and blue wind chime perfume.

Among them, she has been selling skin care cream in Tongdetang for a while, and the sales are very considerable, and when her rouge gouache shop opens, skin care cream can drain her and help her make a reputation.

When Wei Ruo came to the courtyard, the originally empty courtyard and the houses on the east and west sides had been transformed into a production area and a warehouse for storing raw materials.

Seeing Wei Ruo's arrival, Zhao Hai, who was busy chopping wood, got up to greet him.

"Young owner!" Zhao Hai's smile was honest and excited.

"How's your brother doing?" Wei Ruo asked.

"Thanks to the Shao Dong family, my brother is in good health now and is about to take the exam, so I will let him study in the back room with peace of mind." Zhao Hai replied.

"Well, you let him prepare well, the exam is the most important, and he doesn't have to worry about other things for the time being." Wei Ruodao.

"Thank you for your concern! I don't know how to thank the Shaodong family, if it weren't for the help of the Shaodong family, I wouldn't have been able to accompany my brother to the capital, and my brother wouldn't have such a good place to study and prepare for the exam with peace of mind. Zhao Hai said gratefully.

"I just need you to come to the capital to help me, so don't take it too seriously."

Saying that, Wei Ruo asked Zhao Hai to tell her about the work arrangements in the workshop now, not only to understand the progress of the workshop, but also to check whether Zhao Hai had arranged the work correctly and properly.

"Shao Dong, these are grinding bowls, which are used to crush materials, and now Ah Fu is in charge; The large boiler over there is used to boil the mixed liquid, and the iron lid on top is used to collect the steamed perfume, which is in charge of Da Zhuang; This side is with the materials, the work is fine, Ah Chang is doing it, he used to be an apprentice in a pharmacy, and he has experience in doing this......"

Zhao Hai looks honest, but the work arrangement in the workshop is not ambiguous at all, methodical, and accurate.

Wei Ruo smiled: "You did this arrangement?" ”

"This ......" Zhao Hai scratched his head.

"Your brother arranged it, right?"

"I still can't hide it from you." Zhao Hai looked embarrassed.

"It's okay, you have content that you're good at." Wei Ruodao.

Although Zhao Hai is not smart enough, he is very down-to-earth and willing to work hard, if Wei asks him to be in charge, he will charge ahead in everything and lead by example, so he is very convinced by his subordinates.

Zhao Hai became more and more embarrassed, and hung his head down with a smile.

After walking around the workshop to make sure everything was going according to her plan, she went to the shop in front of her and looked at the progress of the renovation.

The entire shop was divided into three areas by Wei Ruo:

First of all, there is the guest lounge area, which is decorated like a tea room, with a warm and comfortable environment and good privacy.

Because her target customers are dignitaries in the capital, if she wants to sell them at a high price, she must first make them happy.

Naturally, the ladies and ladies don't want to mingle with strangers when they go into the store to buy something, so it's important to create a comfortable environment for them to use the product.

The second is the display area, although there are not many types of goods sold in the shop, but each of them is a high-quality product, so the introduction of the product can not be sloppy.

The shelves where the goods are placed are carefully designed, and in addition to the samples, there are also signs next to them to explain the origin and efficacy of the goods.

Finally, there is the checkout area, which is made up of the storage room at the cash register, which is nothing special.

Coming out of the Moon Residence, Wei Ruo went in the direction of Caiyun Room, because Wei Ruo did not plan to directly open a shop that sold fabrics, but planned to take the materials to Caiyun Room to sell for a period of time.

Today she came to see if she had a chance to talk to the boss of Caiyun.

As soon as he entered the door, Wei Ruo heard a familiar voice......
