Datang: Li Er, are you teaching me how to do things?

Chapter 144 The price is too high
As the sun sets, the tired birds return to their nests.

Fang Yiyu left Li Yun's carriage, waved with a blushing face, and then led a group of maids into Liang Guogong's mansion.

As soon as she came to the hall, she saw Fang Xuanling and Lu Shi.

As usual, Fang Xuanling was reading, while Lu Shi was reconciling the account book, and her sister-in-law was also in front of Lu Shi, helping Lu Shi settle the accounts.

Fang Yiyu walked over quickly, "Hello, Mom, hello, dad, and sister-in-law."

Lu looked at Fang Yiyu, "Like a little swallow today, why are you so happy?"

Fang Yiyu giggled, then took out five lipsticks and slapped them on the table, "Aniang, this is our new product."

"New product, what is this for?"

Fang Yiyu took out a lipstick, and then unscrewed the cap, "Aniang, this is lipstick, it is specially applied on the lips, the effect is better than rouge, not only the color is brighter, but also has a fragrance."

Lu Shi smiled, she didn't quite believe these things.

"Aniang, let me put on lipstick for you."

Then she stepped forward, took down Lu Shi's book, and put on lipstick on Lu Shi.

After a while, Fang Yiyu finished smearing, "Father, take a look, does it look better than rouge?"

Fang Xuanling put down the book, looked up, and found that the lipstick was really brighter than the rouge, and said with a smile: "This lipstick is indeed brighter, Madam looks better with it."

Lu rolled her eyes at Fang Xuanling, and then said: "Did the prince invent it?"

"Aniang has a clever plan, she is right."

Fang Xuanling put down the book, couldn't help but look at it and said, "How long did it take Your Highness?"

"I don't know, it should be soon. He has been very busy in recent days."

Fang Xuanling groaned and stopped talking, he just felt that it was not worthwhile for Li Yun to spend time doing these things.

But when Fang Yiyu said that it took very little time, he ignored it.

Knowing Fang Xuanling's thoughts, Mrs. Lu chuckled, and then said: "The prince's invention is quite good. This lipstick is more convenient to carry than rouge, and it looks better. How much do you plan to sell it for?"

"Five hundred dollars."

Not only Fang Xuanling and Lu Shi, but Fang Yiyu's sister-in-law also raised her head in surprise.

"It's so expensive?"

"Well, it may be a little expensive. It depends on the situation. If the sales are not good, then consider whether to lower the price."

"Why is the price so high?"

"His Royal Highness said that the noble ladies in Chang'an would like to collect lipsticks, because lipsticks can be stored for about two years and are far more durable than rouge."

Lu Shi nodded. She still felt that it was expensive. In fact, she also felt that the perfume Li Yun and the others sold was expensive.

Although she came from a famous family and is now the wife of the Duke, she will never be short of money, but she feels that five or six hundred yuan of perfume is really too expensive.

But there are not many empresses from famous families like her in Chang'an, and most of the women still can't control themselves when they have money.

Now there are five fragrances, and every shipment will be wiped out quickly.

This is just a place in Chang'an, and it is not for sale.

It is said that in Luoyang, Guangzhou and other places, the price of perfume has been raised to thousands of dollars a bottle, which is simply stealing money.

One must know that ordinary male workers only spend six or seven hundred dollars a month, and this bottle of perfume can be sold for one thousand dollars, which is outrageous.

Seeing the expressions of the others, Fang Yiyu knew everyone's thoughts, she was not very sure in her heart, she nodded, and then left.

Back in the room, Fang Yiyu immediately arranged for the maid to go to the shop to check the situation.

For example, have you done a good job in tomorrow's sales activities?Have you got your prize ready?Have you stored your lipstick properly?
She was very nervous, even more nervous than the laundry soap promotion before.

That's the way people are, when it comes to laundry soap, she has low expectations.

But now, she is already full of expectations for the lipstick, and she hopes to sell it well. It is precisely because of the goal that there is pressure.

……

At around eight o'clock in the morning the next day, Li Yun picked up Fang Yiyu and went to the lotus laundry soap store together.

At this time, a stage has been set up outside the store, and today Li Yun will arrange for the actors in the East Palace to perform "The Romance of the West Chamber".

Naturally, women like to watch The Story of the West Chamber, and the target users of the lipstick are also women, so they don't plan to perform some operas that men like to watch.

Accompanied by the sound of bells, drums, and pipa, "Romance of the West Chamber" officially began, and soon attracted a group of women to watch.

The actor who played Cui Yingying then sang, everyone's eyes lit up, both shocked and liked.

In this way, Lotus Armani Red Love Lipstick is officially on sale.

Soon it was time for a break, and the drama was suspended. The women onlookers curiously asked what kind of event the Lotus Laundry and Soap Shop was going to do.

"Madam, what we are selling is the latest product, which is exclusively for the East Palace. This thing is called lipstick. Please look at it, this is the upgraded version of rouge."

"Yes, everyone, our lipstick is a higher grade than rouge, come here, everyone, please see the effect of this lipstick."

"Miss Cui Yingying, can you come over and show our guests the effect of lipstick."

Several of the salespersons were previously recruited guys. After selling in the laundry soap shop during this period, they had already accumulated a certain amount of experience.

Yesterday, Li Yun also taught them face-to-face, telling them what to say today.

In addition, they have a commission for selling lipsticks today, so everyone is working very hard.

"Cui Yingying" who was on the stage just walked over, causing everyone to sigh, "Cui Yingying" saluted, then took a lipstick and smeared it on her mouth.

"Everyone, please look at the effect of this lipstick."

A group of women poked their heads to look at it, and they all sighed. This lipstick is very good in color and has a sense of brilliance, which is incomparable with rouge.

"And our lipstick has a shelf life of two years. As long as you don't expose it to the sun, the lipstick can be used for two years."

"And our lipsticks are edible. They use pure natural medicinal materials and fresh flowers. There is absolutely no harm."

"Yeah, who dares to eat rouge, who dares to eat? But we can eat our lipstick."

"Also, this lipstick is delicious, and it will definitely look a hundred times more beautiful when you apply it on."

When everyone heard the words, they were a little moved and asked about the price one after another.

"Five hundred coins, today is the first day of sale, the grand opening ceremony, five hundred coins, the next sale will be six hundred coins each."

"Everyone, don't miss it. It's only five hundred dollars. Buy it for your own use, or give it to relatives and friends. It's very face-saving."

"Lipstick is an upgraded version of rouge. It is ahead of a field in an all-round way. Don't miss it."

Hearing five hundred dollars, most of the onlookers were disappointed, but Chang'an has never been short of rich people, just because they are afraid that your products will not be up to par.

Just like perfume, the price is also high, but now it has swept the whole Tang Dynasty.

However, Li Yun did not open a shop in other places. The biggest consideration is to maintain the nobility of the perfume and make the perfume have a strong style.
