Everyone is attacking me

Chapter 31 Fu Chun┃The most extravagant and cutting-edge.

The promotion gathering of the queens was undoubtedly very successful.

From the beginning to the end, from the decoration to the food to the soap to the perfume, everything amazes these wives who are at the pinnacle of living standards in the current Wei Dynasty.

Because of constant battles and changing dynasties, Wei's food is far less than that of the queens. The original world was prosperous and diverse at the same time.

There are mainly two types of cooking oil in Dawei today, sesame oil and animal oil. Although soybeans are available, with the current oil extraction technology, the oil yield of sesame oil is much higher than that of soybeans.

Of course, other plant seeds are also used to extract oil. For example, renzi is also called perilla or brassica is also called rapeseed, but it is not as common as sesame oil.

As for peanut oil, not to mention, according to the normal trend of history, it will take another four to five hundred years for peanuts to be introduced to China from the Americas.

The oil yield is comparable to sesame oil and tung oil, but tung oil is not edible.

Because of the lack of vegetable oil, for the current Wei Dynasty, frying and frying are only popular among the upper and middle class people, and ordinary people still mostly use steaming and roasting.

Although the Yuan and Qing emperors learned about the prevalence of modern vegetable oils from the empresses, because no one, including the empress dowagers, knew about the more advanced oil extraction method, they could only temporarily list peanuts as a crop that needs to be popularized in the future and try to cultivate them first.

Because of the scarcity of oil, the people of Wei at this time have not been able to let go of their imaginations to make various attempts, so they gave the Queen Mother and the Queen a few people a chance, so there are all kinds of pastries and snacks that have not yet appeared in Wei at this time It was created one by one by them, and it was brought to this party, which shocked all the wives.

Not to mention all kinds of shortbread, deep-fried snacks are cooked by the kitchen, what fried fresh milk, fried oil cakes, fried twisted croquettes, fried chicken wings, fried chicken legs...

If the potatoes were not cooked yet, there would certainly be plenty of French fries and mashed potatoes, but it will not be too late in the future, and it can also help to promote various methods of new crops.

There will be no shortage of snacks and drinks, and all the milk tea and juice that can be imagined and made can be served, which dazzles all the wives.

Because it was the Dragon Boat Festival, rice dumplings were specially served, and most importantly, salty rice dumplings were served.

There are roughly two types of zongzi that Dawei eats today, one is white zongzi, dipped in sugar or honey, and the other is filled with red dates, chestnuts, beans, etc., and rich people also have meat.

But generally speaking, almost all of them are sweet zongzi, and there is no such thing as salty zongzi.

As soon as these salty rice dumplings were served, everyone was amazed, especially Princess Qingkang, who didn't like sweets very much, and fell in love with these salty rice dumplings almost immediately, and ordered an extra box before leaving.

Of course, most still prefer the sweet bean paste honey rice dumpling.

But the battle for sweet and salty zongzi in the future has already begun thousands of years in advance.

And these meals are not the highlight of this party, everyone is full of food and drink, when the palace people came to serve everyone to clean their hands, they brought up a big, square and beautiful pastry-like thing with delicate patterns printed on it, unexpectedly It is used for washing hands, called soap.

The wives followed the empress dowager's example and washed their hands with soap. The oil that was accidentally stained with the snacks earlier was washed off immediately. Not only that, but also a faint fragrance remained.

Before it was over, I wiped my hands, and another palace servant presented the same small jade bottle, saying it was called perfume.

Because of the custom handed down from the Zhou Dynasty, Wei also liked flowers. There is a flower room in the palace, which provides flowers for the emperor and concubines all year round. The queen once went to the Bulgarian Rose Festival and tried to make rose water when visiting the rose garden. There is also research on perfume, and Liang Cairen also knows a little bit. Xia Chan and Song Jie made up the numbers and worked out the 1.0 version of Dawei Perfume.

Because the time is too short, the fragrance is not very good, but it is enough for the women who have never seen it before. After learning how to use it, I like it almost immediately.

The queen immediately said that the ones in her hands will be given to everyone, not only the perfume, but also a box of soap that has just been used, as well as these foods, whichever ones you like can be packed by the imperial chef to take away.

In the end, everyone—including the little girls who came with me—is sent out a new female newspaper, which is also the first version of 1.0. Because of the Queen Mother, the column of manicure has been replaced with popular science and food and detailed methods, so it has to be re-published. Typesetting, re-changing illustrations, and official release will take a few days.

The wives who got the things could still hold back on the spot, and started to show off when they got back, especially those smart ones, who almost understood the meaning of the Queen Mother and Queen's words at that time, and directly held a banquet.

Among them, Princess Qingkang, who has always had a keen sense of smell in this area, was the leader. Two days later, she held a big banquet under the pretext of appreciating flowers, and invited almost everyone who could catch her eye in Chang'an City.

As soon as her wives saw it, they all followed suit.

Fresh ways of partying, fresh food, never-before-seen soaps and perfumes, and a female newspaper edited by the Queen Mother herself, which is said to be the first version only available upon invitation.

All of them surprised everyone.

All of a sudden, the dozen or so wives who were invited by the queen became celebrities in the circle. Those who were not invited were envious and jealous, and when they returned home, they urged their husbands or sons to work hard to get promoted.

The little girls who came with the wives also became the envy of the ladies.

This craze quickly swept across the entire upper class of Chang'an, and gradually spread to the middle and lower classes. Soaps and perfumes, the food spread quickly, especially the detailed recipes in the newspapers. Within half a month, they were in Dongshi and Dongshi. It became popular in restaurants in West Market.

Snacks, snacks, and wives communicate with each other, and then ask the cook at home to think about it a few more times, and it is almost enough, but soap and perfume are not available to everyone.

The queen and the others really put in a lot of effort to make practical and good-looking soaps. This time, Song Jie did his best. He followed a beautiful internet celebrity who is good at all kinds of handmade. In order to pursue her, he followed The other party has experienced making handmade soap. Although the materials are all ready-made, but they have experienced the specific process, which is also experience.

The materials for making soap are not hard to find, plant ash and animal oil.

The lye is obtained by filtering plant ash, adding water and standing still, adding oil and mixing, heating and stirring, and finally hardening in a mold. This is the most basic version, it sounds not difficult, but if you don’t know the ratio, you can only try it again and again.

And you have to figure out how to make the color look good, and you have to add fragrance.

After trying again and again, before the Dragon Boat Festival, I finally made a pass. Not to mention the function, but just looking at the appearance, it is so beautiful that it is exciting.

However, the queens were not very satisfied and felt that there was still room for improvement.

This batch of finished products excludes everyone's own use, and there are about [-] pieces left, and each box of five is given to the wife who came to the party that day.

The status of these wives is already high enough that they don’t need to give soap as a gift. They either go home to share with their families, or give it to their good friends to show off at banquets.

There are even fewer perfumes, two bottles per person, one bottle is only finger-high, not enough for one’s own use, how can one be willing to give it to others, to show off is to put it on oneself for others to smell it, and at most it is to put some on one’s friends.

Even more shocking to the women, those who got perfume, or put on perfume, attracted their husbands to linger for days.

Don't underestimate women's comparison and jealousy, soon all kinds of stories about soap and perfume spread all over Chang'an. You will change your mind, and the person you like will please you.

So the food heat passed, and soap and perfume became what everyone wanted, including the eager businessmen.

But where can I get the things passed down from the palace?Where to buy it?

For a while, some chatted with Princess Qingkang, some visited the Empress Dowager and the Queen's mother's house, some asked the construction department for news, and some simply poked their husbands to ask the emperor directly.

Not to mention that someone really came to ask, which made Emperor Yuan Qing dumbfounded.

Then I couldn't help but feel that what the queen said was really right, women in this world are the easiest to earn money, and the celebrity effect, Internet celebrity marketing and troll strategy, the effect can be so fast.

Yes, this matter has fermented so quickly and so hotly, of course it is not that simple.

Not to mention Princess Qingkang who got three times the soap and perfume of others, but there are quite a few sailors in the market who spread rumors such as "my fellow countrymen" and "my relatives" without pretentiousness.

Therefore, the Yuan and Qing emperors were not surprised by the current fiery situation, but because this incident actually saw the effectiveness of the navy, they had some ideas about newspapers in their minds.

The atmosphere was already hot, and the empress immediately distributed the prepared newspapers. Other contents remained the same, only the contents of the empress dowager's diet column were changed, and at the end she explained the release of soaps and perfumes.

According to the queen's plan, soap and perfume are just the beginning, and she plans to build a cosmetics brand.

The ancients were not stupid. When soaps are sold, they will always find out how to do it. It will be no secret at that time. They, including the royal family, cannot completely monopolize the market. Therefore, before this, the brand must be established to ensure that in the future When people think of it, their first reaction is their brand, and if they want to do it, they should be the most luxurious and cutting-edge.

And the biggest shareholder of this brand is not the Queen or Queen Mother, let alone Liang Cairen and Song Jie, but Princess Changle.

Once the empress and the others have to go back, it is useless to ask for these things. Although the empress dowager will not leave, she is already the empress dowager, so what is the use of these private properties.

Secondly, they are all soul wearers, and they still have family members in their original bodies. The queen is fine, her biological mother has passed away, and only one grandmother needs to be taken care of by her. Song Jie and Liang Cairen have a lot of family members, as well as the queen mother. There are more troubles involved. With their identities, their survival is already the greatest care for those family members. At least Liang Cairen's original family has moved from the suburbs to the city, not to mention the Empress Dowager's family. If it weren't for her, I'm afraid I would still be farming in my hometown.

So after all the calculations, it just happened to be under the name of Princess Changle.Although the Great Wei banned clansmen from doing business, there was a tacit unspoken rule that only those princes and county kings were banned, not princesses and princesses. Therefore, if princes want to buy property, they must either put it under the name of their wives, or wait for their daughters to grow up. But most of them are the former, and try to keep a low profile.

Emperor Yuan and Qing agreed without much thought, and it was time to buy some property for Changle as a dowry.

So the world's best-selling cosmetics brand in the future was born, and the brand name was taken by the queen.

"In my world, there used to be a brand called Xie Fuchun, Fu, rich and fragrant, and homonymous, Fu, restored, spring is youth, remove the surname of the creator, it is called Fuchun!"
