The Village Doctress Chapter 240: Who to cooperate with

On the second day, Lin Fufu got up early in the morning, washed up and went straight to her "laboratory".

Picking up the porcelain bottle and looking at it, the top layer of water is clear and clear, and the powder has settled underneath.

She poured out the clear water in the white porcelain bottle, and then used a thin blade to hang off the top layer of coarse powder, leaving the most delicate powder below, and then took the fine powder, and then hugged Take the white porcelain bottle and go to the main room.

The powder I made yesterday weighed a catty, and if I hung up the top layer, at least nine taels would be left. The small box of powder sold in the market only weighs a few cents. Lin Fufu really needs these powders It's worth selling it.

"Sister Fen, Sister Fang, each of you bring out a few small ceramic jars." Lin Fufu thought about the jasmine osmanthus fragrance powder he made for the first time, which is very meaningful, so keep more.

Even as a souvenir.

"This powder smells so good! It's exactly the same as the smell of sweet-scented osmanthus in autumn, but the smell is a little lighter!" Lin Fang held the jasmine sweet-scented osmanthus powder dug out by Lin Fufu, closed her eyes and sniffed. A look of selflessness.

Lin Fen said: "The scent of sweet-scented osmanthus is good, but the scent is too strong. I still think the scent of this face powder is better."

"Yes, yes, I also think this powder smells better." Lin Fang also nodded, impatiently picked a small piece with her fingers and put it on her face, wiped it evenly, and looked forward to it Looking at Lin Fufu and Lin Fen, "Sister, Fufu, do you see that my face is white after applying this powder?"

Lin Fufu took a closer look and found that the face powder looked brighter and whiter when it was applied on the face.

"Okay, this person has three points of appearance, and the face powder made by Gospel is seven points!" Lin Fen said in admiration, and then looked at Lin Fuspel with a hint of excitement on his face, "Gospel , I think the incense powder you made is better than that of Caizhizhai.”

Lin Fufu also thought this way, but he still asked Lin Fen, "Sister Fen, what do you think is good?"

Lin Fen thought for a while, pointed to Lin Fang's face and said: "This powder is more even when applied on the face, it looks more natural, without that sticky feeling, and the face looks more white and tender , my Ah Fang looks like everyone's young lady after wearing this powder!"

Hearing her sister's praise, Ah Fang smiled so much that her eyebrows and eyes curled up, "Yeah, I feel that the powder that Caizhizhai claims to be the best has a sticky feeling when applied to the face, as if there is a tinge on the face. It’s like putting on a mask, but this powder doesn’t do it at all.”

"Well, that powder is drier, but this powder always feels wet." Lin Fang said again.

Lin Fen nodded to Lin Fufu, "That's right!"

Lin Fufu's eyes were also narrowed with a smile. Of course she knew that the powder she made was not dry. The secret was that when she made the powder, she put in distilled liquor, that is, ethanol.

Ethanol added to cosmetics not only has an excellent bactericidal effect, but also has an excellent cleaning and degreasing effect.

In fact, the skin of the ancient people was healthier than that of the modern people, and the skin problems were not serious. The effect of using cosmetics added with ethanol is very good, and the application will be more extensive.

The more Lin Fufu thought about it, the more confident he became, "Then I'm going to find Mrs. Qin, and you can keep these vials."

"Hey, wait a minute, Gospel, your face powder is so easy to use, I happen to be at home today, teach us, we can make more of this face powder for you!" Lin Fang immediately stopped Lin Gospel .

Lin Fufu thought about it, so he told the two sisters how to make incense powder.

Lin Fen participated in the following steps, and she has mastered this, so she listened very carefully when Lin Fufu taught them the previous steps.

"Okay, it's actually as simple as that. You should try a few times with less material first, and if you really don't want to wait until I come back." Lin Fufu explained and went out with the big porcelain vase in his arms.

Lin Fen and Lin Fang looked at each other and smiled.

Lin Fang said: "The Gospel is really big, it tells us all..."

Lin Fen squinted at her, "Could it be that you can still spread the gospel?"

Lin Fang asked, "Am I stupid?"

"That's enough." Lin Fang lowered her eyes and said, "If it weren't for the Gospel, I'm afraid neither of us would be able to escape the palm of Lin Dalang and his master. Something bad is coming!"

After listening to her sister's words, Lin Fang's eyes became serious, and she nodded fiercely.

Yue Ke Restaurant.

Meng Jun sat in a beautifully furnished room on the third floor, propped her chin with one hand, and watched the people coming and going on the street.

"My lord, shopkeeper Hua has sent you away." A young man in black clothes knelt down on one knee and reported.

Meng Jun then turned her head around, looked at the young man kneeling on one knee and nodded, "How about it, what's wrong with Lao Hua?"

The young man shook his head, "My lord, Lao Hua has already been frightened to the point of being shattered by the means of the young master, and she dare not be unconvinced. Rather..."

The young man hesitated.

"If you have anything to say, tell me directly. I haven't seen any troubles, my son?" Meng Jun stood up and smiled slightly, but her tone was full of vicissitudes.

"Yes!" The young man lowered his head and reported: "It's the eldest son of shopkeeper Hua. He is very fierce. He has been saying that his family belongs to the old man. He is... the one left by the old man to the young master. I have no right to deal with them like this, their family is going to see the old master and the young master!"

"Oh?" After hearing the report from his subordinates, Meng Jun's voice was drawn out, and the smile on his face deepened, "No wonder, the Old Hua's family was a nail that the old man arranged for me, or was it for his old man? It was arranged by Laizi... Heh."

The young man hangs his head lower.

"Tell me, how old is our little master this year?" Meng Jun touched the back of her hand and asked the young man who came to report.

"Back to the eldest son, the young master is nineteen this year."

"Well, he's two years younger than this son. It's right for the old man to plan for him." Meng Jun smiled coldly, "I'm afraid, no matter how hard he tries, he won't be able to support that youngest son."

The young man didn't dare to answer those words.

Meng Jun didn't expect him to answer the conversation, and said boredly: "Since Laohua's affairs are arranged, then seal up this Yueke restaurant and prepare to return to Jiangnan."

"My lord?" The young man was startled, looked up at Meng Jun and said, "My lord, although the business of the Yueke restaurant in this town is much worse than in previous years, the money earned is also quite a lot."

"Although Qinglian County is a central fortress in the north, it is also a good place to earn money, but this place has been targeted by the eldest princess's people, so let's withdraw slowly." Meng Jun said without hesitation. road.

It's just a money-making restaurant, and it's not worth offending the ruthless characters in the Wei court that no one dares to offend for it.

"Then... my lord, the Yueke Restaurant in Qinglian County will also be withdrawn?" the young man asked.

Meng Jun thought for a while, then shook his head and said, "The Yueke Restaurant in Qinglian County earns as much silver as a wealthy provincial capital in the south of the Yangtze River. The guest restaurant has been withdrawn. Take this matter slowly, and don't make it obvious at a glance."

The young man immediately answered yes, and then said: "Don't worry, eldest son, the subordinate will let the people below find a good excuse to remove the restaurant."

Meng Jun nodded, "Go."

The young man cupped his fists and left. Meng Jun turned his head out of the window again, and suddenly he saw a familiar figure.

Isn't that the interesting little girl from yesterday?

What are you doing with a big porcelain vase?

Meng Jun felt strange, but she didn't have much interest in such a farm girl, so she just smiled and passed away.

Lin Fufu went to Miss Qin's makeup shop.

Oh!

I saw many little girls and sisters-in-law buying rouge and gouache, and Mrs. Qin and the two mistresses were too busy.

Looking at the hot scene, Lin Fufu felt happy for Mrs. Qin.

I didn't expect that after Mrs. Qin stopped doing Caizhizhai's business, the business would be better than before.

Think about it, too. After all, the prices of Caizhizhai's goods are too high. Although the source of customers is stable, they are maintained by old customers, and the growth of new customers is not much.

And even if the little girls and sisters-in-law who have some spare money spend money to buy such expensive rouge and gouache, they will save their use slowly, so the number of re-purchases will be less.

Seeing that Mrs. Qin was busy introducing products to the guests, Lin Fufu waited quietly.

She carefully observed the facial expressions of the guests, as well as the products they favor the most, and found that the most bought by these customers was the melting cream.

She couldn't help but smiled slightly, Xuemelting Ointment is high quality and cheap, so it's not surprising that it can sell well.

"Shopkeeper Qin, the best thing in your shop is Xue Rong Ointment, which is good and not expensive. But the others are..." A well-dressed middle-aged woman came over and said to her. Mrs. Qin said.

Ms. Qin immediately responded with a smile, "Mrs. Ma, actually, I also want to buy more good things like Xuemelting cream, but unfortunately, good things are hard to come by."

The lady called Mrs. Ma smiled and said: "That's right, but the rouge powder you buy now is not bad. Too much, but it saved me and my daughters a lot of money for rouge and gouache."

Ms. Qin laughed: "Caizhizhai's products are good, but in fact the price is indeed a bit expensive. We ordinary people should buy these cheap and high-quality products and use them."

Madam Ma bent down and smiled: "The shopkeeper Qin's words are reasonable. To be honest, I think there is no big difference between the incense powder made by Caizhizhai and the incense powder made by other companies. It is more fragrant and whiter, and it is still dry when rubbed on the face."

"There is no way to do this. To be honest, not only the incense powder of Caizhizhai, but all the incense powders are like this. After all, apart from the different things added by each family, the materials and steps of making powder It's all the same." Mrs. Qin looked a little helpless.

Hearing this, Lin Fufu smiled and glanced at her big porcelain vase.

After a while, the number of guests finally decreased by half, and Lady Qin saw Lin Fufu.

"Fufu, why are you here? I haven't seen you for a month or two." Mrs. Qin was very happy to see Fufu Lin, and handed over the business to the two mistresses. "Come on, I'll treat you to some good tea!"

Lin Fufu smiled and passed by.

"What are you doing with such a big porcelain vase?" Mrs. Qin let Lin Fufu go to the back hall of the shop, arranged for her to sit, and then went to get tea to make tea.

Lin Fufu smiled and said, "I am a baby."

Mistress Qin glanced at her with a smile, then held the teacup in front of her, and said, "This is the new Yuqian Longjing tea that my brother and sister-in-law brought back when they went to the south of the Yangtze River to help me get the goods. Try it." /

Lin Fufu took it with a smile, thanked her, and asked, "How long has it been? I see that your business is better than before."

Ms. Qin's face was also happy, but she shook her head and said: "You are wrong, you see the excitement now, it is really not as good as the Caizhizhai before."

Lin Fufu nodded understandingly, after all, after listening for a while, he knew that although the goods Mrs. Qin bought were much more expensive than those sold at the stalls outside, they were still twice as cheap as those from Caizhizhai So this profit is naturally not as good as selling Caizhizhai's goods.

"I think you are fine now, and you are more humane than before." Lin Fufu teased her.

Miss Qin did not refute, but instead said: "You are right, I don't know why, at that time, I always felt that I was superior to others. If you don't buy my things, it means you have no vision. Everything I have here is worthless." It is the best, you buy it from someone who knows the goods."

After she finished speaking, she didn't wait for Lin Fufu to say anything, but she laughed first.

Then said: "I feel very good now, customers come and go, even if they don't buy anything, I feel very good to talk to them a few more words."

Lin Fufu nodded.

"It's all about me, what about you? I said what are you doing holding the big porcelain vase? What kind of treasure is it inside?" Qin Niangzi asked with a hearty smile.

Lin Fufu blinked mysteriously, then put the white porcelain bottle on the table, and then said to Mrs. Qin, "This is my newly made incense powder. Mrs. Qin, please help me."

"You made it?" Mrs. Qin looked at Lin Fufu in disbelief, and Lin Fufu pouted at her, "Look first."

Mistress Qin took out a silver hairpin from her head, reached into the white porcelain bottle and picked out a small piece of powder.

"Hey, this powder is really fragrant!" Lady Qin immediately fell in love with the delicate fragrance of sweet-scented osmanthus, she tapped it with her finger, "Oh, it's still very moist. "

Miss Qin stopped talking to Lin Fufu, rubbed the powder from the silver hairpin onto her fingers, tapped it on her face, and wiped it carefully.

"When you apply it, it feels very even, not heavy or sticky." Mrs. Qin shouted in surprise, and then looked at Lin Fufu seriously, "This powder is really your own. Come out?"

Lin Fufu smiled and nodded, and asked, "Miss Qin, how do you think this powder compares to the best fragrance powder in Caizhizhai?"

She is very confident that the powder she makes is better than the best powder in Caizhizhai, but in the final analysis, this is only her own opinion.

"I think this incense powder is much better than the best powder in Caizhizhai. It is said that this powder is fragrant and not vulgar, and it is much better than Caizhizhai's powder if it is neither dry nor astringent." Mrs. Qin He said happily, and then said to Lin Fufu: "Actually, Caizhizhai's powder is the same as the powder made outside, but more spices are added in it, but those spices are not processed cleanly. When the powder is applied, it can be rubbed on the face, and it hurts from scratching the face. But, because Caizhizhai has a good reputation, no one cares about it."

After finishing speaking, he touched her own face carefully, "I feel that the powder you made is very docile, and there is no dry and uncomfortable feeling on the face, but a faint cool feeling." .”

This connoisseur is a connoisseur. He is much more sensitive than ordinary people to the commodities he often handles.

Seeing that Lin Fufu just smiled and didn't speak, Mrs. Qin thought for a while, suppressing the excitement in her heart and asked, "Fufu, do you sell this incense powder?"

"Oh, sell it. If this fan isn't for sale, I won't bring it to Mrs. Qin." Lin Fufu said with a smile.

When Mrs. Qin heard this, joy flashed in her eyes, and she hurriedly said: "You can sell this incense powder. What my customers say the most is that they are not satisfied with the current incense powder. Complaining about the dryness of the powder on the face or something."

"That's true." Lin Fufu nodded, feeling very proud that Mrs. Qin also thought that her fragrance powder was better than the best fragrance powder in Caizhizhai.

Frowning and thinking for a while, she looked at Mrs. Qin and said, "So, it took me time to make the current fragrance powder. It took time and a lot of money. It didn't happen overnight. Now it seems that it is worth it." of."

The implication of Lin Fufu's words is that the price of such a good face powder cannot be low.

Even if the price is lower for small profits but quick turnover, what she is doing now is not following this path.

Just like Caizhizhai, she wants to follow the path of high-end customers.

Ms. Qin was not surprised at what she said. Instead, she smiled and said, "Of course, to be honest, you just saw it after staying with me for a long time. Those guests who really have money are really right. I'm not satisfied with the current fragrance powder, in fact, they used to buy Caizhizhai's rouge powder, and if they can afford Caizhizhai's fragrance powder, they must be able to afford your fragrance powder."

Anyway, the old customers she has accumulated in this makeup shop used to buy the things from Caizhizhai, and the new customers don't want to spend more money, so they can just buy the cheap ones she is buying now.

When Lin Fufu heard Mrs. Qin say this, he knew it in his heart and felt relieved.

"Then Mrs. Qin, how much money do you think is the best price for my incense powder?" Lin Fufu really has no experience in this field, and he is willing to listen to Mrs. Qin's opinion.

Ms. Qin pondered: "Your incense powder is worse than the best incense powder in Caizhizhai, but you are not well-known. I think it is better to sell it at the price of the best incense powder in Caizhizhai."

"How much is a box of the best face powder in Caizhizhai?" Lin Fufu asked.

Ms. Qin laughed and said: "The best powder in Caizhizhai is packed in powder boxes made of silver, so they are expensive. After all, the powder is used up, and the powder box can also be taken away." In the silver shop, other jewelry is melted down. So, Gospel, you have to think about what box you want to put your face powder in, and then choose a nice name, so I can push it out!"

"Name?" Lin Fufu was taken aback, that's right, she hasn't named the powder she made yet.

After thinking for a while, he said, "How about calling it Jasmine Powder?"
