Chapter 195 Opening a Shop
Chapter 195 Opening a Shop
I always feel that it was memorized in advance, and it doesn't feel real at all. Besides, this guy is so reluctant that he has coughed up blood from his head. I stopped Ling'er's action.
"I will investigate the matter again. You just stay here. If I find out that you've lied to me, you'll die an even more miserable death." Then I called Hongdou in. As soon as Hongdou came in, she saw Ling'er kneeling in front of me with blood on her head and crying.
I waved my hand and asked Hongdou to clean Ling'er and take her out, otherwise if it got out, it would seem like I was abusing her.
After everyone was cleared away, I began to think that what this guy said was not even 10% credible. He spoke haltingly before, but suddenly became so smart. Someone must have taught him.
Finally, I called Ling'er into the room to talk because I thought of one thing, which was Shen Jing. I was not sure whether Shen Jing was there or not, and he might hear it, so I deliberately let him hear it.
If there is testimony from the parties involved, it would be easier to decide the matter. After a long time, there was still silence in the room. It seemed that Shen Jing was really gone. When he was about to make a portrait, a piece of paper flew in from the window.
This paper seemed to have life and fell right into my hands. Everything happened so naturally. It was written on the paper that what you hear is not necessarily true. Judging from the handwriting, it should have been written by Shen Jing.
What was written was not completely certain, and it sounded like a sophistry. I simply burned the paper, and when it was half burned, I threw the paper into the air, which also showed my determination not to believe it.
The paper was completely burned before it hit the ground. I looked at the ashes on the ground, and I couldn't help feeling mixed emotions. I didn't know what was wrong with me. It was as if someone had drugged me. Why did I feel other emotions towards such a person?
I adjusted my mindset, sat back at my desk and started painting. My painting skills can only be described as average. But the point is not to make the person look lifelike or good-looking. The important thing is to make the person look good after the flowers are painted on.
This is enough. Looking at the painting that I am satisfied with, I can see that the picture with the flower ornaments has been lightly photoshopped.
After putting the painting away, he strolled around outside and finally came to the silk shop. He suddenly remembered the best place. He had checked Manxianglou before and found that there were always people inside. They were probably very familiar customers now.
It's just for use in case of emergency. We spent so much money to keep it, and it's for use now. We called everyone together and asked them to draw a portrait of their favorite girl.
Start drawing on their foreheads, the flower ornaments that suit them. I point to the flower ornaments on their foreheads and give them some time to find a way to make this appear on their heads. To put it simply, at first I put a little on their heads and casually say that I like the way they look.
When a girl puts on her own makeup, she starts by dotting on her forehead, then expands outwards and begins to draw shapes. This has to be done little by little until the girls in Manxianglou start to catch on.
Seize the opportunity to start promoting the special pigments, you can make a lot of money and make this thing popular. During this period, it seems that you can prepare the pigments in advance. As for pigments, it is definitely best to go to the pharmacy to ask.
I seemed to be like that monster hunter, running around all night and finding many recipes in the pharmacy. I took them home to study and see which one was suitable. Then I dragged Hongdou to study with me. Hongdou asked me why I had to do all this, and after I tried all of them, I said that I wanted to study this recently.
Hongdou obviously didn't believe it, but she still followed me and studied her own and Hongdou's faces. They must have been painted all over, and studied waterproof, oil-proof, and sweat-proof.
Finally, I decided on three types, one suitable for oily face, one for dry face, and one that is rub-resistant, just like the eyeliner. After I was sure, I went to the drugstore to get prescriptions and also started thinking about setting up a shop. I didn’t want the prescriptions to be too big, a very small one would be enough.
I chose a shop that was quite close to a drugstore. It would be easy to get supplies this way, which was great. After talking with the shop owner, I started to prepare for the renovation and also researched pigments. I had to open the shop before Manxianglou was ready.
Otherwise this matter would be very suspicious. This way it won’t look so strange. At the beginning, the type of cosmetics sold were those that specialized in eyeliner. Eyeliner was still not very popular at that time.
I was very busy for the next ten days, studying the decoration of the store and watching the progress of the pharmacy. When I finished it completely, they told me that mole removal had become popular in Manxianglou.
This is a good start, but it also means that I need to speed up my work because I don’t have much time left. The decoration must be unique, so I used very bright colors to give the entire shop a unified color.
I selected a lot of fragrances, the kind that didn't smell strange but were very comfortable. In the end, I could hardly smell anything. Hongdou was busy with the account books of many stores and couldn't spare the time to help me with these.
Seeing Hongdou always keeping the account book in her hands and even researching an inkstone that she could carry with her, she felt a little sorry for her. She said that Hongdou was a personal maid and she was trained like a sister, so she should do these things by herself.
Hongdou is also in charge of the review, and the final decision is still in her hands. Thinking about it this way, it seems to be okay and she won't feel so sorry for Li Fu and Zi Fu.
Finally, I called Ling'er over. I planned to let Ling'er sell these things. Then, the flower would naturally appear on her face.
Ling'er was definitely skeptical at first, but let her be skeptical. Spread a bunch of incense in front of Ling'er, and Ling'er sat on the ground and started to smell them. After she decided on a few, she sat outside and started to light them.
Lighting the incense sticks one by one, it was obvious to see that Ling'er was visibly tired, and I must be the same. It took me three days just to choose the incense. Even if the business was bad, it was unjust.
Later facts proved that there were so many unfair things. When the shadow opened for business, there was a lot of fanfare. Ling'er and I were busy all day. There were a lot of people, but most of them were there to watch the fun.
It was both reasonable and unexpected, and still very depressing. Ling'er also seemed to be very shocked.
You can tell that she is very happy and is introducing the product very hard. Then I see Ling'er squatting next to the money box, wondering what she is thinking about.
When I was researching it with Ling'er, she liked the product very much and was particularly looking forward to opening the shop.
