If the business woman does not help the poor, the villain's dream of prosperity will be shatter

Three days before the store opens is the annual Outing Festival.

After a whole winter of dullness and boredom, the spring season with blooming flowers, growing grass and singing birds makes the whole city become much more lively.

On this day, young men and women will go out of their homes to row boats, fly kites, play, and go for an outing.

There are green grass and willows on both sides of Jinyue Lake. On the north side of the bank, there are women dancing in fluttering sleeves and light gauze; on the south side, there are young men in long gowns, crowns and belts, who are elegant and suave, reciting poems and composing essays.

It was a rare occasion for women to go out without wearing veils. Their tender faces were facing the spring breeze, and their moods were as free and easy as kites flying in the sky.

Of course, there are also girls who love beauty and would rather die than take off the veil from their faces because of the pimples and spots on their faces.

Qin Shu brought a dozen maids from the mansion, took the rouge creams that she and her people had made overnight, and set up a long stall on the north bank of Jinyue Lake.

Different from other stalls in the surrounding area, there is a big stage behind her stall, on which prostitutes hired at a high price from Liuxianlou are singing and dancing.

There is a big "billboard" next to the stall, which says that Qin's Rouge Shop's new gouache cream is specially designed to treat various skin problems.

The maids in the Qin mansion each held a box of ointment, claiming that all the products in the store were free to try today.

At the end of Qin Shu’s stall, there was a big tent.

There are tables and chairs inside, as well as all kinds of strange snacks that you have never seen before.

The stall soon attracted several beauty-loving women to come and watch.

After all, most rouge shops have built their brands over more than ten years or even dozens of years in order to retain old customers.

This is the first time I have seen a new store being promoted like this.

Qin Shu was smiling as she introduced her product to the little girl who had been watching for a long time. "Girl, why don't you try it in the tent? If it doesn't work, you will be compensated with five taels of silver immediately."

Five taels?

It’s equivalent to her monthly salary.

The girl next to him was also a little tempted, "Is it really going to work right away? If it doesn't work, will I have to pay you money?"

Qin Shu smiled slightly, "When opening a store and doing business, honesty and integrity are the most important thing."

The little girl bit her lip and walked into the tent first.

After entering the tent, she took off her veil, revealing the small pimples on the little girl's face.

Qingliu put a hat around her neck, gathered her hair with a handkerchief, cleaned her face with a hot handkerchief, and then evenly applied the ointment Qin Shu had prepared on the little girl's face.

Afterwards, he placed a cup of hot milk tea in her hand and said, "Miss, try this tea. Do you like it? This is made by our young lady herself."

The little girl took the milk tea doubtfully, put it under her nose and smelled it. The sweet taste was also mixed with a hint of milk flavor.

It was unlike the goat milk that she usually drank, which had a strong fishy smell.

She tried a small sip, and her eyes lit up immediately, and she exclaimed, "Mm, it tastes so good!"

After shouting, he realized his rudeness and his face turned red immediately.

Qin Shu smiled and said, "As long as the girl likes it. I opened a rouge shop on North Fourth Street. Any customer who enters the store can drink it for free."

The girl found it more delicious the more she drank. After finishing it, the fragrance lingered in her mouth and she was still not satisfied. She smiled and said, "When will your shop open? When it opens, I will invite all the sisters to come and support you."

Qin Shu smiled and thanked him, and said that the shop would open in three days.

Another little girl came in curiously.

Qingmei and the other maids followed suit, applying ointment on the little girl and serving her milk tea.

Soon the tent was full.

The first girl who had her facial done was taken by Qingliu to wash her face.

After washing her face, the little girl touched her smooth face and screamed, "Oh my God, is this me? My face..."

Everyone turned to look at the same time.

The little girl was so excited that tears came down her face. She jumped up and down on the spot, "All the pimples have disappeared! They are really gone!"

Girls all love beauty.

But at the age when we love beauty the most, annoying little pimples, whiteheads, festering and small black spots appear on our faces.

If the abscess is squeezed out, a deep, red pit will be left behind.

That is literally every girl’s worst and most terrifying nightmare!

There were only girls in the tent, so there were fewer concerns.

Everyone looked at each other, and in addition to asking for facials, they were also exchanging the taste of various flavors of milk tea and snacks.

After the first girl went out, the news spread quickly.

But after a while, more than 80% of the women on the embankment were attracted over.

Qin Shu's stall was surrounded by people.

No one appreciated the singing and dancing on the stage; even the dancing girls and musicians ran into the tents to watch the fun.

Women who couldn't get a number in the tent were choosing their favorite rouge at the stalls outside.

In less than two hours, all the rouge and cream Qin Shu brought were sold out.

Qin Shu took the opportunity to take out the invitation card for the opening day that she had prepared in advance. "This is the invitation card for the opening day of our store. For all the distinguished guests who come to the store with this card, all products will be sold at half price on the opening day. Only women are allowed to enter the store."

Nearly a hundred invitations were snapped up.

The "grand occasion" on the north shore of the lake stunned the young men on the south shore who were planning to take this opportunity to "show off their skills" and they all asked what happened on the other side.

A curious boat owner found out what had happened and told the people on the south bank the whole story.

Cheng Zonghao was also among these people.

But now he has lost his former glory.

His father, Cheng Mao, was exiled to Jiyangguan, a small border county with less than 300 households, as a county magistrate half a month ago.

Counting the days, I'm afraid we are still halfway there.

The eldest brother went to Beijing to gather information, but he wasted a month there and gained nothing.

Finally, it was Grand Tutor Wei who had someone send him a brocade box, which contained a fake silver note with a face value of ten thousand taels. The note was whitish in color, so fragile that it would break at the slightest touch.

The whole family spent the whole night studying and discussing the fake banknote, but they still couldn't understand what Grand Tutor Wei meant by this action.

Could it be that Grand Tutor Wei was implicitly criticizing Cheng Mao for his bad conduct and incompetence?

Or is he a paper tiger that will break at the slightest touch?

Later, Mrs. Cheng said cautiously, "Is this the banknote we sent over?"

Cheng Mao immediately denied it, "The banknote was sent just a few days ago, how can it be the same as this one?"

The silver bills in front of me seemed like old items that had been stored for thousands of years, but they all looked very new.

How could it be the same one?

Having said that, Cheng Mao still had some doubts in his mind.

Now, the remaining banknotes have been returned, Qin Jingchang has committed suicide by hitting his head against the wall, and Xiao Qin has been sent out of the house.

Even if Xiao Qin was not sent out of the house, she might not know, so it would be useless to ask.

If you want to verify it, there is nowhere to find it.

Do they have to run to the Qin Mansion and question the eldest daughter of the Qin family, asking whether the banknotes Qin Baoyi brought in when she married into the Cheng Mansion were fake?
