I opened a mall in ancient times
Chapter 17 Day 7 of Store Opening
The fox spirits who are very obsessed with becoming beautiful took out their spirit stones and slapped them on the table in front of Luo Chaoxi, the meaning was self-evident.
Luo Chaochao also took out the same style, and handed them over one by one. In a short time, there were more than a dozen vixens in Luo Chaochao's front hall who were putting on makeup in front of the mirror.
Even a few Tibetan foxes bought cosmetics to join in the fun.
Only Hong Hong, who had already finished her makeup, looked at the mirror and felt sorry for herself, and then suddenly remembered something and took out a small jade tablet, and poured spiritual power into it.
A figure in red appeared in the void in front of him.It was a woman, wearing a red wedding dress, she was very beautiful, but there were a few red marks on her face, which ruined the beauty of that face, her skin was so pale that it turned blue, and her exposed fingers were sharp and blood red.
"Li Wenwen!" Hong Hong yelled, "Your Aunt Hong Hong is here!"
In Luo Chaochao's impression, Hong Hong was a shy and shy vixen, but she startled him immediately when she spoke.
"Hu Xiaohong?!" The female ghost in red was puzzled when she saw Hong Hong after she put on her makeup, but then she reacted suddenly.
"What did you do with your face? Tell me, tell me, tell me!"
The two have the same problem, and they are both young girls. When they get together, they will exchange experiences with each other, so the two became best friends very early, and they chatted casually in private. Now seeing Honghong's sudden change, it is natural Curious as hell!
"I bought it from this boss!" Hong Hong adjusted the camera angle, and with Luo Chaoxi's permission, he was also included in the recording.
"Wait for me!" The female ghost in red glanced at Luo Chaochao, and saw the other vixens in the back poking at the mirror, and immediately made a decision: "I'll be there right away!"
After finishing speaking, Hong Hong said to Luo Chaoxi embarrassedly: "Boss, it should be fine."
"No problem." Naturally, Luo Chaoxi couldn't say anything, besides, this was to attract clients for himself, even if the client was a female ghost, he had no reason not to let the client in.
A few vixens were chirping together, Luo Chaochao was doing his own thing behind the table with a smile on his face, and then had a wave of commercial bragging when the vixens came over to ask for praise.
Until the door was knocked, a soft, resentful voice came from outside the door, but the content was not very friendly.
"Hu Xiaohong, I'm here, your aunt!"
Only then did Hong Hong pull her head out from the mirror: "It's Li Wenwen!"
"Then come in." Luo Chaoxi was puzzled by the girl's friendship, and let her in.
A female ghost wearing a red wedding dress covered her red hijab and floated in all the way. The exposed red embroidered shoes were three inches above the ground, and she couldn't see her shadow under the light.
Luo Chao Chao responded with a polite smile, and then quietly covered his little heart.
It was the first time he saw a ghost.
Foxes don't count!
The red-clothed female ghost Li Wenwen's eyes lit up when she saw Luo Chaochao, she lifted her hijab abruptly, and pounced on it like a hungry tiger. Luo Chaochao dodged back and blocked Li Wenwen from the counter.
"Does this guest need anything?"
"The one on her face, give me one." Li Wenwen pointed to the red face and said.
Seeing that Li Wenwen had also come, Honghong's other sisters came over and chattered, and some people touched Li Wenwen's face, wiped the red thread on her face with stitches, and distributed it from their respective cosmetic bags. After coming out a little bit, he pulled Li Wenwen to a stool beside him: "Boss, Wenwen will use it for us first."
Luo Chao Chao could only nod his head, what else could he say?
This time, just smile.
Li Wenwen was surrounded by these fox spirits, who frantically put makeup on her face.Li Wenwen didn't struggle, just surrounded by the vixens and looked at himself in the mirror expectantly.
Her situation is different from that of a vixen.
She died in a miserable state, her body was divided into several pieces, after becoming a ghost, such traces could not be hidden anyway, if she used a lot of ghost energy to cover up for a period of time, but at most it would only last for half an hour.
What girl doesn't want to be pretty all the time?
The suture marks on Li Wenwen's face were gradually covered up under the effects of concealer and foundation, the horrifying visual effect was suppressed, and Li Wenwen's original face was restored.
She is naturally extremely beautiful, different from the enchanting beauty of Hong Hong and the others, Li Wenwen is more inclined to the pure Xiaojiabiyu, especially those eyes, I still feel pity for them, and they are most likely to ask for pity from others.
The vixens would even infer other things from one instance, and change Li Wenwen's bean paste-colored gentle lipstick into Li Wenwen's wedding dress, as if they were really going to get married.
After these vixens experimented on their own faces, their level of make-up improved by leaps and bounds. After Li Wenwen's face was finished, it was even raised to a higher level. At least Luo Chaochao, a layman, could see that the make-up effect on Li Wenwen's face was quite natural.
"I haven't seen this face for a long time... If it was back then..." Li Wenwen looked at himself in the mirror, and suddenly burst into tears. Pearl-like tears rolled down from the corners of his eyes, but did not leave any traces on his face after makeup. The next trace, instead, left a small water mark on the table.
"Wow! There will be no watermark!" The fox yelled after seeing this scene, making Li Wenwen, who was still grieving for the spring and autumn, speechless.
What the hell!
Can you give her a little space to move?
Emotions came and went quickly, and Li Wenwen's sad mood disappeared immediately. She stood up with her face in her hands, and wiped a few layers of red knife marks on her neck, so that the scars that were exposed outside were hidden. stand up.
And Luo Chaochao pretended to move a full-length mirror in from the back and put it in the corner.
It's still the kind that pulls the legs up.
Girls probably like to look in the mirror.
The girls were excited again, wishing they could show the purest and most lovely poses in front of the one-meter-wide mirror.
Zhiyou and the other Tibetan fox couldn't squeeze in, so they had to sit by the counter, looking at the faintly lit sky, and chatted with Luo Chaoxi: "Boss, do you have anything suitable for our men here?"
The makeup videos provided by the boss are all for girls, how unfair!
Luo Chaochao didn't expect that Tibetan fox also had a heart to become beautiful, so he let out an "uh" and frantically searched for boys' make-up videos in the backstage of the mall.
"Yes, but maybe not for you."
After all... To be a beauty blogger, there really isn't a guy like Zhiyou with a swollen face. Even if he has a round face, he's still a bit unqualified compared to Tibetan Fox.
Zhiyou looked very disappointed.
"This is discrimination!"
"Not really, it's just that men wear less makeup."
"No, our fellow tribe in the south said that the men over there can also make up, but it's not as complete as the women's painting."
"Personal freedom, personal freedom." Luo Chaoxi had no choice but to find him a grooming tutorial for a handsome guy with a square face. Zhiyou and another Tibetan fox immediately got together to watch.
"Boss, are you selling this mirror?" When Luo Chaoxi was still talking to Zhiyou, the vixens were already arguing. Every monster wanted to monopolize this mirror, but there was only one mirror, and they couldn't break it. take away.
If it is broken, isn't it no different from an ordinary small mirror?
"Sell it." Just as Luo Chaoxi finished speaking, several extra spirit stones popped out on the counter.
It is red.
Hong Hong boldly took another twenty spirit stones, "I want it!"
The suddenly confident Hong Hong is bound to get this mirror, Luo Chaoxi slowly put away the spirit stone: "Don't fight, I have everything I want, everyone has it, how many do I want? Shall I get it?"
Including Li Wenwen, there are fifteen life-size mirrors in total.
It's not that there is no body-sized bronze mirror for them to look at, but the bronze mirror is yellow in color and can't perfectly show their beauty. Now that they see such a good mirror, they naturally want to take it down.
They were all ready to talk nonsense, but now Luo Chaochao said that everyone has it.
Everyone is good!
Luo Chaochao went to the second floor, and after a while, fifteen mirrors were wrapped in foam paper, cartons and wooden supports, and the firmly packed mirror flew down from the second floor, and then stood in front of everyone.
"This kind of mirror is easy to break, unlike bronze mirrors, try not to bump it vigorously, or you will need to buy it again if it breaks." Luo Chaoxi instructed.
Several vixens directly put the mirror into their own space, but Li Wenwen hid in the shadow in the corner after putting it away, not daring to come out of the shadow.
Seeing Li Wenwen like this, everyone realized in a daze that it was already dawn.
They vixens are not afraid of light, but ghosts like Li Wenwen are very afraid of the sun, and their skin will peel off if they are not careful.
Luo Chaoxi recalled that those ghosts seemed to often come out of the mirror, so he said, "Can you try to hide in the mirror?"
Li Wenwen was a little dazed, but still touched the mirror.
After she deliberately signaled that she wanted to enter the hard mirror, the mirror surface was like a lake, sucking her hand in.
"You can go in!" Li Wenwen exclaimed. "Quick, take me away, or I won't be able to get out when the sky is completely bright!"
A group of people hastily packed up again, and then hurriedly slipped away before dawn.
Before leaving, Luo Chao Chao told them: "There will be new products tomorrow night."
Come!Must come!
If you don't come, you're a bastard!
They could already imagine their shocked faces when they put on makeup and appeared in front of their own race!
They left without disturbing anyone, leaving only a table of garbage and a pile of spirit stones on the table.
Luo Chaochao cleaned up all the disposable tableware, then put away all the large plate of spirit stones, kept half of it for points, and did not choose to turn the remaining half into points.
The reason is very simple, he really wants to know whether it is true that he can absorb the energy in the spirit stone for cultivation in the novels he has read before.
[Yes, yes, but this is quite valuable. If you save a little more, you can go up to level three. 】The system doesn't matter, he thought that Luo Chaochao would exchange all of them directly, and strive to upgrade to level [-] as soon as possible to open new functions and unlock other small props in the backpack.
A total of fourteen vixens and one female ghost spent money, which can be exchanged for experience according to the exchange rate, which can make the experience bar climb one-fifteenth further.
Just selling cosmetics in one night earned him two days' turnover, which is not to say that he didn't make a profit.
It doesn't sound like a lot, but except for Luo Chaoxi's introduction at the beginning, they are almost all choosing and trying by themselves at other times, and there is almost no labor cost.
Most importantly, it was the money spent by fifteen guests.
In other words, these fifteen vixens spent thousands of people spending two nights in one night. Although cosmetics are not very expensive, the price they paid for their beauty was enough to shock Luo Chaochao.
The vixens are so willing to spend money, but what about the rich people in real life?
What about the female relatives of those rich merchants and noble families?
Even the well-informed vixen has a soft spot for Luo Chaochao's cosmetics, so it's unreasonable for ordinary people to be indifferent to it.
Luo Chaochao took the spirit stones that had not been converted into points to practice.
After all, money can be made again, and there are too few opportunities to get spirit stones in the early stage, and only by surviving can you make money.Luo Chaochao doesn't know if he can be resurrected in case of any accident, but he will.
As long as you can dog, you can live a long time.
After all, Luo Chaochao will be going out from today, and his dealings with non-humans like vixen can easily attract the attention of other non-humans.
The vixens have no hostility towards Luo Chao Chao, but that doesn't mean that other non-human beings have no hostility towards Luo Chao Chao. If he wants to protect himself, he has to give up something.
Luo Chaochao counted the time, and it was less than two hours away from the time he and Banan agreed upon. Taking advantage of these two hours, Luo Chaochao could try to absorb a little.
The system guides and assists at the side, and it goes smoothly. At least Luo Chaochao doesn't have to worry about being disturbed, and he can concentrate on absorbing it.
Banan's family of three came out early.
Their home is not far away, but one is old, one is disabled, and there is a frail little girl. Adults can walk for 10 minutes at most, and they walked abruptly for nearly an hour.
They went out at six o'clock in the morning, and when they reached the door of the store, it was already seven o'clock.
The store door is still closed, but the surrounding shops have already opened. Xiaoer is already busy in the store preparing to open for business today. Some of them recognize Banan and say hello to Banan, but Luo Chaochao's store Also the door is closed.
Banan certainly understands.
After all, their store starts to open at night and stays open until early in the morning. After I leave, the boss will definitely have to do a daily inventory and calculate the accounts.
Just because I haven't slept all night, doesn't mean the boss will also stay up all night. I guess he hasn't woken up yet.
They were not in a hurry to knock on the door and go in, they just waited at the door, for fear of disturbing Luo Chaoxi's good sleep.
The system naturally discovered that Banan and the others were waiting outside the door, but now that Luo Chaochao was absorbing the critical moment, it was inconvenient to disturb them, so instead of calling Luo Chaochao, they asked a few of them to wait outside.
Luo Chaochao was originally the owner of the protective array. After the protective array was upgraded to a high level, Luo Chaochao, as the owner, could feel everything within five meters outside the store.
If Luo Chaoxi was still awake, he would naturally be able to detect someone outside the door, but now he just got the knack of cultivation and was completely immersed in cultivation, so he didn't notice it.
On his side, he absorbed all the spirit stones on the table, and the energy slowly circulated in his body, and the body's protection mechanism was lifted, and he finally woke up.
Luo Chaochao only felt that he had broken through something, his body was extremely light and powerful, and his consciousness seemed to be able to reach every corner of the room with his thoughts. It was precisely because of this that Luo Chaochao could better perceive how terrifying the protective array of this system was. .
【Go take a shower. 】The system reminded him, 【Congratulations, you can buy more advanced cheats, which are quite expensive as I remember. 】
Luo Chao found that the system really liked to pour cold water on himself, especially when he should be congratulated for his promotion.
He was obviously very happy, but the system suddenly said, cheat books are very expensive.
It can't be said that what he said is wrong, because the cultivation cheats after foundation establishment are very expensive. Although Luo Chaoxi can afford them, he feels uncomfortable when he thinks that he has been spending money and not making money.
[Has anyone ever told you that you can't read air? 】
【You are my first host. 】
So no one else is saying I can't read air.
And there is no need to read air in the capacity of system 001.
Luo Chaoxi didn't bother to pay attention to him, so he found a family of three sitting outside the door, looked at the time, it was only less than eight o'clock, why did he seem to be waiting outside for a long time, he quickly let them in .
One looked like an old man in his 60s, and the other was a little girl who was only as tall as his waist. Her withered hair was carefully tied up with a hemp rope, and her clothes were ragged but clean.
Luo Chaochao's first impression of them was not bad, at least the clerks in the food store must be clean so that everyone can eat with peace of mind. It is a naked lesson to eat customers directly into the medical hall like Boss Rong.
"Hi, boss." They stood up quickly, and Banan introduced: "This is my grandfather, and this is my sister."
"Come in first." Luo Chaochao let them in, poured a glass of water for each of them, and then put a piece of paper in front of everyone. On it were simple arithmetic problems, all of which were three-digit addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. The elderly's were even more difficult. One point, there are also questions on word recognition and writing.
After all, what was required at the beginning was literacy, and Luo Chaochao would not release water just because he was a relative of Banan.
"Let's not talk nonsense, answer this question, Banan, I have something to go out, I put the ingredients to be processed in the back kitchen, and you can deal with them later, and I will trouble you both, no matter what Those who fail to pass will be paid for their work today." Luo Chaoxi said.
Banan nodded, and wrote down everything Luo Chao said. Luo Chao asked them to make papers first, and then put today's ingredients in ice cubes and put them in the freezer.
Originally, there was no need for ice cubes, but in order to conceal that it was a refrigerator, Luo Chaochao could only put more ice cubes in it.
Luo Chaochao and Master Yin made an appointment to meet at ten o'clock, and there was still an hour and a half before ten o'clock, Luo Chaochao had to go there ahead of time, that is to say, Luo Chaochao still had forty minutes to give them an interview.
Even if you don't need it, you have to get busy with today. Today, he may not be able to come back before opening at night.
Luo Chaochao took advantage of the time when they were making the test paper to briefly write down the seasoning, and then wrote down the process on the paper, and even made preparations for not coming back tonight.
"We're done." After Luo Chaochao finished writing, he went upstairs to get the gift he had prepared for today's visit, and saw that the three of Banan were already standing aside with the finished paper, waiting for Luo Chaochao to review it.
Luo Chaochao's attitude towards these things is not bad, and he can tell whether it is correct or not at a glance. Seeing that there are only ten minutes left, Luo Chaochao simply asks, focusing on why Grandpa Ba passed the Tongsheng exam Still so poor.
It stands to reason that even if a person who can read and write works as an accountant in a store, even if he writes family letters for others, he will not be so miserable, unless there is something unspeakable, or he is too lazy.
Grandpa Ba sighed and explained: "I had already taken the examination of scholar, but another examinee from my hometown was rich and powerful, so he changed my paper when grading. He took my grade and paper, and now I have already gone to the capital to be an official, but in order to cut grass and roots, I had to take my family to Kangping City. We were separated from my son and daughter-in-law on the way, and finally survived, but my leg was broken. I’ve been here for two months. Thanks to Nan Yazi going outside to earn money, I, an old man, survived.”
Banan touched his face in embarrassment: "I only have grandpa and sister left..."
In ancient times, the patriarchal situation was very serious. Those who can run out with their granddaughters at this time are those who love their families.Seeing how attached Ba Yu was to his grandfather and elder brother, and knowing that the two were not lying, he was sure that what the other said was true.
"Where are the papers?" Luo Chaochao asked.
"Here." Banan took out three folded scrolls, ink marks could be seen from the back, and it could be seen that there were no traces of modification, and they should have been put away after they were finished and dried.
After Luo Chaochao took it, he opened his eyes and saw the three-digit addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division in it. Luo Chaochao could get the answer with just a glance.
The first one was from Banan.
Banan was good at arithmetic, but not at reading.
This is not a big problem, as long as you can remember the words on the menu and some commonly used words.
As for Bayu, she is not very good at arithmetic, but she is good at reading and writing, and she can use it and pass it. Banan's grandfather not only writes beautifully, but can even write articles, and he also does all the arithmetic problems in it. correct.
"Yes, the assessment has passed first, but the first month is the probationary period, and the wages are settled daily, [-] yuan a day. Because Banan is a skilled worker, it will be higher. After a month, your wages will rise to [-] yuan. , in the middle of every month, you will pay the bill, and you will be provided with meals, and you will be covered after the trial period is over. Is there any problem with this treatment?"
More than just a problem?
This treatment is quite good, there are not many restaurants in the entire Kangzhou city that can pay [-] yuan a day and pay back meals!
The three naturally nodded in agreement. Luo Chaoxi took advantage of the last few minutes to explain the precautions when he was away, and then called Banan over alone, and taught him what to say if a guest came early, or someone came to look for him. How to deal with it yourself.If Musa and his guards came over yesterday, let them help with the ingredients first.
This very trusting attitude made Banan a little at a loss, but he immediately understood that this should be the test given to them by the boss. If they can pass today's test, they will be able to work in the store.
So Banan nodded seriously: "I know the boss, you can go at ease."
"Then I'll trouble you." Luo Chaoxi said, and hurriedly left the store with the gift he had packed.
Master Yin lived in a separate courtyard.
Although people with their identities can also live in inns, but with the sensitive status of Master Yin, they brought a lot of guards, so after arriving in Kangping City, the Jiedu envoy simply arranged a set of three-entry houses for them. Master Yin lived here temporarily, and he also arranged a lot of guards, together with the soldiers he brought, surrounded the small courtyard tightly.
Luo Chaochao hired a carriage, and the clothes he was wearing were the fashionable clothes that were unlocked in the backpack after he reached the second level. They looked like a literati's toga with long sleeves, and his hair was pulled back. He didn't have any accessories, but he really didn't look like a businessman.
Originally, Luo Chaochao could use those pendants in his backpack as gifts, but this kind of thing is a novelty, but how can Luo Chaochao explain where he got it from?
And I don't sell it myself.
After all, I was penniless two days ago and couldn't even pay the rent.
Luo Chaoxi glanced at the things he had brought, and only hoped that Master Yin could understand what he meant, so he could do me a favor by the way.
It's not that Luo Chaochao didn't drink with the leader when he was a social animal.At the beginning, he was still a novice, and he drank with his boss until he needed to go to the hospital for gastric lavage. Later, he got used to it, and he was fine. He could even talk business with the bosses without changing his expression after drinking two taels of white.Now we need to change the way to talk about cooperation with bosses with background.
Master Yin told the concierge in advance that Luo Chaoxi would come to visit, and soon, a middle-aged man about 40 years old ushered in at the gate. The simple-looking but expensive item is obviously not an ordinary waiter.
The other party introduced himself as the butler of the Yin Mansion.
"This is a new gadget for the ladies. I am thinking about letting the ladies try these gadgets, as well as the wine dug up from under their own trees."
The housekeeper had long known that Luo Chaochao was an ordinary small businessman, and probably wouldn't be able to bring out anything valuable, so he didn't feel surprised to see these very simple little things now.
"It's going to be hard for you to wait in the side hall for a while. Someone is looking for the master now, and they are discussing matters now." The housekeeper did not have the same arrogance to the businessman to Luo Chaoxi, and he could see that he was well educated. He said to Luo Chaoxi, "You take a break first, and I will let you know when the master is free."
This is also expected.
Luo Chaochao had no objection, and sat in this small living room.
The butler left the yard, and then asked the servant next to him in a low voice: "Miss and madam haven't come back yet?"
"No, I went out early this morning." The servant next to me said awkwardly, "I said I was going to go shopping and buy some new cosmetics."
But here is no better than the capital, if there is anything new, I must be back soon.
Although there are merchants from Beidi and the Western Regions here, the women in these two places don't take care of themselves very much. They don't even use the ordinary cosmetics of Sheng Kingdom. It's better to stay in the capital and wait for the merchants to deliver expensive cosmetics. .
"Forget it, you can serve him some snacks and tea first, and come over later when the master is free." The butler said to the servants in the small courtyard.
After a while, a few maids came up with some snacks.
They were peach crisps and mung bean cakes, and there was also a bright yellow piece that Luo Chaochao had never seen before.
These dim sums are all made of fine grains, ordinary poor people can't afford them at all, and compared with the western dim sum that Luo Chaoxi had eaten before, this kind of dim sum is lighter and more delicate, not as straightforward and sweet as western dim sum impact.
Western-style dim sum is to put a lot of sugar, using sweetness to give the eater a kind of psychological satisfaction, as well as physical satisfaction.
This is more impactful to the ancient times that lacked sugar. Even nobles who can often eat honey may not be so resistant to desserts. Do you have a soft spot for egg tarts and various taro pies and red bean pies without seeing Musa? ?
Western-style desserts...maybe there are some tricks too?
Luo Chaoxi ate a piece of pastry and took out a wet towel to wipe the crumbs and oil on his hands. He was so idle that he didn't dare to wander around, let alone do useless things, so he could only stand up and stand outside the small hall look at the scenery.
"Really, there is nothing good in this Kangzhou city. Look at your face. Even the doctors here don't like it." On the main road outside the bamboo forest, two beautifully dressed women complained, One is a well-maintained young woman, and the other is a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl. The guards behind her are stacking several boxes in their hands, so high that they can't see their eyes.
The two of them went shopping for less than an hour, and they bought so many things, and this was when the store was not fully open in the morning.
"Just stay in the house for a few days and take good care of it? Shall we go to the nine o'clock restaurant for dinner at night? I heard them say that the barbecue in that restaurant is delicious, and the boss is also very handsome. "The younger girl was beaming with joy, but the jewels on her head didn't sway because of her slightly lively movements.
Even when excited, these girls were taught not to let their ornaments hang around.
"It's just a roadside stall. Why don't you just call the cook to the house to cook for you?" The older woman said, she touched the red marks on her daughter's face, feeling very distressed.
"Old Song, what are these boxes?" The two walked back to the back house, just in time to see Butler Song walking towards the warehouse with a few exquisite boxes.
Within a few days after their family came to Kangzhou City, people big and small in the city began to send gifts to them.
Originally, it would be fine to just ignore it and send it directly to the warehouse, but Mr. Yin doesn't like to accept too expensive gifts, so every time someone sends something, he will open it and check it.
"It was sent by a boss named Luo Chaoxi, who said it was a gadget for the lady." The housekeeper followed the mother and daughter back to the room, and opened several boxes in the small living room.
Coincidentally, the first thing to open was the perfume that Luo Chaochao stored alone.
The two bottles of perfume were placed in a red velvet box. The transparent bottle body and exquisite and ingenious shape immediately hit the hearts of the two women.
"Mother, this one is emerald green!" The daughter carefully picked up the small light blue bottle inside.
This small bottle was made into a streamlined oval shape, and the bottles made in pure industrial batches had no flaws, and they were even more beautiful than the transparent glass they had seen in the capital.
The most important thing is that there is no trace of handwork on it!
Perhaps the modern pursuit is handwork, but at this time, what the nobles are pursuing is that there is no trace of handwork, and it is best to look like natural.
There are also a few strings of incomprehensible patterns engraved on the glass, which are a bit like characters, but the Western Regions and Beidi characters they know are different.
"What is this?" In the box, the daughter found a thin hardwood board that was slightly smaller than the box, but it didn't feel like it. The whole body was black, and the words "True Me" were written on it in golden letters.
Is this the name?
In addition to this small card, there is a thinner but harder paper at the bottom, tied with a bow with a white ribbon, and after opening, there is a small string of text and an instruction manual with pictures.
"Can I use it?" The daughter asked her mother, and she saw that the mother took out another light concubine-colored bottle from another box. This bottle is more girlish, it is light pink, and the liquid inside is also pink. It was made into a round heart shape, each face was cut three-dimensionally, and placed in the sun to refract colorful light, just looking at it made me breathe lightly.
Although Luo Chaochao didn't know much about perfumes, he knew what types of women of different ages probably liked, so one chose a more concise and generous packaging, and the other chose a girlish one. No matter what they like, they can use it, and it turns out that , Luo Chao Chao was indeed right to follow the trend.
The daughter prefers the pink bottle, and the older mother prefers the simple and elegant one.
"This should be very expensive." Mrs. Yin obviously had more worries.
They can't collect valuable items, if they do, they will be caught by their opponents.
"I didn't say anything about it, but the boss who gave the gift is now waiting in the small hall for the master to talk to the Jiedushi. He hasn't left yet. Madam wants to find him now, and he can still be found."
said the butler.
Originally, the daughter was a little frustrated when she heard her mother say not to take it apart, but when she heard that the gift giver was at home, she immediately looked at her mother begging.
"See what's in the other boxes?" Mrs. Yin didn't go immediately, but opened the other boxes.
In addition to the three-piece set of perfume and beauty makeup that Luo Chaochao chose to give at the beginning, he also put some skin care products.
Essence creams, face creams and the like can be replaced with small ceramic jars, but not for sheet masks. There was no such convenient storage device in ancient times, so Luo Chaochao just asked the system to wipe off all the brands of masks and the like. Leave the degradable plastic packaging of pure color, which looks much simpler, and will not affect the ancient ecological environment and cause pollution because the plastic is difficult to degrade.
There are instructions and effects inside each one, and the packaging on the outside is so simple and beautiful, the mother and daughter are very itchy.
"What is this?"
"It is said to be a kind of candy called chocolate from other countries." The butler looked at the instructions and said, "Maybe the taste is a bit bitter at first, but if you feel it more, you can taste the mellow sweetness."
What Luo Chaochao took was normal-purity milk chocolate with strawberry fruit filling inside, so it won't be hated by people because it's too bitter.
Although sugar is also expensive, it is still affordable for them as they are. Only then did the mother and daughter remove the thin oiled paper packaging outside, revealing the brown chocolate block inside, which is only as thick as a finger, and every inch is concave. The slot can be broken into a small piece that can be directly imported.
Mrs. Yin took a handkerchief and carefully broke off a piece and put it in her mouth.
At first, this strange taste and slightly bitter taste was really unacceptable, but what followed was the dense and smooth taste unique to chocolate.The milky aroma of milk and the slightly bitter chocolate blend together, and the unique aroma of chocolate is intoxicating.
After the chocolate on the outside melted, the strawberry filling inside flowed out from the cracked inside. The completely different sweetness really caught people's attention. Mrs. Yin's eyes lit up immediately, and she liked the texture and taste of this candy very much.
Sure enough, it tasted completely different from the candy I ate before.
Even for rich people like them, there are actually only a few kinds of sweetness that can be tasted.
The best is honey, then maltose, or dried fruit, as for the others, I really haven't eaten much.
This kind of texture and taste has never been experienced before, and it is not unpalatable, and it even feels a bit delicious after eating a few more pieces.
Mrs. Yin can still control herself not to eat too much. Miss Yin over there is already tearing apart the second piece, and there is even a little brown mark on the side of her mouth. This is considered rude in the Yin family, which is very strict in tutoring. up.
In addition to these, there are several white disks in these boxes. Mrs. Yin opened it and looked at it, and there were various eye shadows inside.A total of five sets of nine-color eyeshadow palettes with different colors, two sets of four-color blushes, one set of five lipsticks, and two sets of thirteen makeup brushes. The makeup brushes are made of rabbit fur, which is very soft to the touch, very similar to The rabbit fur collar won't prick your hands.
"What is this?" Miss Yin came over to look again.
These things are so interesting that she has never seen them before.
"This is... cosmetics?"
They had never seen such a style before, and it was very novel. They touched the eye shadow with their fingers and scratched it on their arms.
The delicate powder leaves a conspicuous mark on the arm, the blush is lighter in color to highlight a natural look, and the lipstick is screwed out according to the instructions.
All kinds of red and pink immediately captured their hearts.
Especially there is a very small but very clear and non-polarized mirror on the top cover of the lipstick. They can see themselves after applying lipstick from the mirror.
This is comparable to the mouth they use now
Luo Chaochao also took out the same style, and handed them over one by one. In a short time, there were more than a dozen vixens in Luo Chaochao's front hall who were putting on makeup in front of the mirror.
Even a few Tibetan foxes bought cosmetics to join in the fun.
Only Hong Hong, who had already finished her makeup, looked at the mirror and felt sorry for herself, and then suddenly remembered something and took out a small jade tablet, and poured spiritual power into it.
A figure in red appeared in the void in front of him.It was a woman, wearing a red wedding dress, she was very beautiful, but there were a few red marks on her face, which ruined the beauty of that face, her skin was so pale that it turned blue, and her exposed fingers were sharp and blood red.
"Li Wenwen!" Hong Hong yelled, "Your Aunt Hong Hong is here!"
In Luo Chaochao's impression, Hong Hong was a shy and shy vixen, but she startled him immediately when she spoke.
"Hu Xiaohong?!" The female ghost in red was puzzled when she saw Hong Hong after she put on her makeup, but then she reacted suddenly.
"What did you do with your face? Tell me, tell me, tell me!"
The two have the same problem, and they are both young girls. When they get together, they will exchange experiences with each other, so the two became best friends very early, and they chatted casually in private. Now seeing Honghong's sudden change, it is natural Curious as hell!
"I bought it from this boss!" Hong Hong adjusted the camera angle, and with Luo Chaoxi's permission, he was also included in the recording.
"Wait for me!" The female ghost in red glanced at Luo Chaochao, and saw the other vixens in the back poking at the mirror, and immediately made a decision: "I'll be there right away!"
After finishing speaking, Hong Hong said to Luo Chaoxi embarrassedly: "Boss, it should be fine."
"No problem." Naturally, Luo Chaoxi couldn't say anything, besides, this was to attract clients for himself, even if the client was a female ghost, he had no reason not to let the client in.
A few vixens were chirping together, Luo Chaochao was doing his own thing behind the table with a smile on his face, and then had a wave of commercial bragging when the vixens came over to ask for praise.
Until the door was knocked, a soft, resentful voice came from outside the door, but the content was not very friendly.
"Hu Xiaohong, I'm here, your aunt!"
Only then did Hong Hong pull her head out from the mirror: "It's Li Wenwen!"
"Then come in." Luo Chaoxi was puzzled by the girl's friendship, and let her in.
A female ghost wearing a red wedding dress covered her red hijab and floated in all the way. The exposed red embroidered shoes were three inches above the ground, and she couldn't see her shadow under the light.
Luo Chao Chao responded with a polite smile, and then quietly covered his little heart.
It was the first time he saw a ghost.
Foxes don't count!
The red-clothed female ghost Li Wenwen's eyes lit up when she saw Luo Chaochao, she lifted her hijab abruptly, and pounced on it like a hungry tiger. Luo Chaochao dodged back and blocked Li Wenwen from the counter.
"Does this guest need anything?"
"The one on her face, give me one." Li Wenwen pointed to the red face and said.
Seeing that Li Wenwen had also come, Honghong's other sisters came over and chattered, and some people touched Li Wenwen's face, wiped the red thread on her face with stitches, and distributed it from their respective cosmetic bags. After coming out a little bit, he pulled Li Wenwen to a stool beside him: "Boss, Wenwen will use it for us first."
Luo Chao Chao could only nod his head, what else could he say?
This time, just smile.
Li Wenwen was surrounded by these fox spirits, who frantically put makeup on her face.Li Wenwen didn't struggle, just surrounded by the vixens and looked at himself in the mirror expectantly.
Her situation is different from that of a vixen.
She died in a miserable state, her body was divided into several pieces, after becoming a ghost, such traces could not be hidden anyway, if she used a lot of ghost energy to cover up for a period of time, but at most it would only last for half an hour.
What girl doesn't want to be pretty all the time?
The suture marks on Li Wenwen's face were gradually covered up under the effects of concealer and foundation, the horrifying visual effect was suppressed, and Li Wenwen's original face was restored.
She is naturally extremely beautiful, different from the enchanting beauty of Hong Hong and the others, Li Wenwen is more inclined to the pure Xiaojiabiyu, especially those eyes, I still feel pity for them, and they are most likely to ask for pity from others.
The vixens would even infer other things from one instance, and change Li Wenwen's bean paste-colored gentle lipstick into Li Wenwen's wedding dress, as if they were really going to get married.
After these vixens experimented on their own faces, their level of make-up improved by leaps and bounds. After Li Wenwen's face was finished, it was even raised to a higher level. At least Luo Chaochao, a layman, could see that the make-up effect on Li Wenwen's face was quite natural.
"I haven't seen this face for a long time... If it was back then..." Li Wenwen looked at himself in the mirror, and suddenly burst into tears. Pearl-like tears rolled down from the corners of his eyes, but did not leave any traces on his face after makeup. The next trace, instead, left a small water mark on the table.
"Wow! There will be no watermark!" The fox yelled after seeing this scene, making Li Wenwen, who was still grieving for the spring and autumn, speechless.
What the hell!
Can you give her a little space to move?
Emotions came and went quickly, and Li Wenwen's sad mood disappeared immediately. She stood up with her face in her hands, and wiped a few layers of red knife marks on her neck, so that the scars that were exposed outside were hidden. stand up.
And Luo Chaochao pretended to move a full-length mirror in from the back and put it in the corner.
It's still the kind that pulls the legs up.
Girls probably like to look in the mirror.
The girls were excited again, wishing they could show the purest and most lovely poses in front of the one-meter-wide mirror.
Zhiyou and the other Tibetan fox couldn't squeeze in, so they had to sit by the counter, looking at the faintly lit sky, and chatted with Luo Chaoxi: "Boss, do you have anything suitable for our men here?"
The makeup videos provided by the boss are all for girls, how unfair!
Luo Chaochao didn't expect that Tibetan fox also had a heart to become beautiful, so he let out an "uh" and frantically searched for boys' make-up videos in the backstage of the mall.
"Yes, but maybe not for you."
After all... To be a beauty blogger, there really isn't a guy like Zhiyou with a swollen face. Even if he has a round face, he's still a bit unqualified compared to Tibetan Fox.
Zhiyou looked very disappointed.
"This is discrimination!"
"Not really, it's just that men wear less makeup."
"No, our fellow tribe in the south said that the men over there can also make up, but it's not as complete as the women's painting."
"Personal freedom, personal freedom." Luo Chaoxi had no choice but to find him a grooming tutorial for a handsome guy with a square face. Zhiyou and another Tibetan fox immediately got together to watch.
"Boss, are you selling this mirror?" When Luo Chaoxi was still talking to Zhiyou, the vixens were already arguing. Every monster wanted to monopolize this mirror, but there was only one mirror, and they couldn't break it. take away.
If it is broken, isn't it no different from an ordinary small mirror?
"Sell it." Just as Luo Chaoxi finished speaking, several extra spirit stones popped out on the counter.
It is red.
Hong Hong boldly took another twenty spirit stones, "I want it!"
The suddenly confident Hong Hong is bound to get this mirror, Luo Chaoxi slowly put away the spirit stone: "Don't fight, I have everything I want, everyone has it, how many do I want? Shall I get it?"
Including Li Wenwen, there are fifteen life-size mirrors in total.
It's not that there is no body-sized bronze mirror for them to look at, but the bronze mirror is yellow in color and can't perfectly show their beauty. Now that they see such a good mirror, they naturally want to take it down.
They were all ready to talk nonsense, but now Luo Chaochao said that everyone has it.
Everyone is good!
Luo Chaochao went to the second floor, and after a while, fifteen mirrors were wrapped in foam paper, cartons and wooden supports, and the firmly packed mirror flew down from the second floor, and then stood in front of everyone.
"This kind of mirror is easy to break, unlike bronze mirrors, try not to bump it vigorously, or you will need to buy it again if it breaks." Luo Chaoxi instructed.
Several vixens directly put the mirror into their own space, but Li Wenwen hid in the shadow in the corner after putting it away, not daring to come out of the shadow.
Seeing Li Wenwen like this, everyone realized in a daze that it was already dawn.
They vixens are not afraid of light, but ghosts like Li Wenwen are very afraid of the sun, and their skin will peel off if they are not careful.
Luo Chaoxi recalled that those ghosts seemed to often come out of the mirror, so he said, "Can you try to hide in the mirror?"
Li Wenwen was a little dazed, but still touched the mirror.
After she deliberately signaled that she wanted to enter the hard mirror, the mirror surface was like a lake, sucking her hand in.
"You can go in!" Li Wenwen exclaimed. "Quick, take me away, or I won't be able to get out when the sky is completely bright!"
A group of people hastily packed up again, and then hurriedly slipped away before dawn.
Before leaving, Luo Chao Chao told them: "There will be new products tomorrow night."
Come!Must come!
If you don't come, you're a bastard!
They could already imagine their shocked faces when they put on makeup and appeared in front of their own race!
They left without disturbing anyone, leaving only a table of garbage and a pile of spirit stones on the table.
Luo Chaochao cleaned up all the disposable tableware, then put away all the large plate of spirit stones, kept half of it for points, and did not choose to turn the remaining half into points.
The reason is very simple, he really wants to know whether it is true that he can absorb the energy in the spirit stone for cultivation in the novels he has read before.
[Yes, yes, but this is quite valuable. If you save a little more, you can go up to level three. 】The system doesn't matter, he thought that Luo Chaochao would exchange all of them directly, and strive to upgrade to level [-] as soon as possible to open new functions and unlock other small props in the backpack.
A total of fourteen vixens and one female ghost spent money, which can be exchanged for experience according to the exchange rate, which can make the experience bar climb one-fifteenth further.
Just selling cosmetics in one night earned him two days' turnover, which is not to say that he didn't make a profit.
It doesn't sound like a lot, but except for Luo Chaoxi's introduction at the beginning, they are almost all choosing and trying by themselves at other times, and there is almost no labor cost.
Most importantly, it was the money spent by fifteen guests.
In other words, these fifteen vixens spent thousands of people spending two nights in one night. Although cosmetics are not very expensive, the price they paid for their beauty was enough to shock Luo Chaochao.
The vixens are so willing to spend money, but what about the rich people in real life?
What about the female relatives of those rich merchants and noble families?
Even the well-informed vixen has a soft spot for Luo Chaochao's cosmetics, so it's unreasonable for ordinary people to be indifferent to it.
Luo Chaochao took the spirit stones that had not been converted into points to practice.
After all, money can be made again, and there are too few opportunities to get spirit stones in the early stage, and only by surviving can you make money.Luo Chaochao doesn't know if he can be resurrected in case of any accident, but he will.
As long as you can dog, you can live a long time.
After all, Luo Chaochao will be going out from today, and his dealings with non-humans like vixen can easily attract the attention of other non-humans.
The vixens have no hostility towards Luo Chao Chao, but that doesn't mean that other non-human beings have no hostility towards Luo Chao Chao. If he wants to protect himself, he has to give up something.
Luo Chaochao counted the time, and it was less than two hours away from the time he and Banan agreed upon. Taking advantage of these two hours, Luo Chaochao could try to absorb a little.
The system guides and assists at the side, and it goes smoothly. At least Luo Chaochao doesn't have to worry about being disturbed, and he can concentrate on absorbing it.
Banan's family of three came out early.
Their home is not far away, but one is old, one is disabled, and there is a frail little girl. Adults can walk for 10 minutes at most, and they walked abruptly for nearly an hour.
They went out at six o'clock in the morning, and when they reached the door of the store, it was already seven o'clock.
The store door is still closed, but the surrounding shops have already opened. Xiaoer is already busy in the store preparing to open for business today. Some of them recognize Banan and say hello to Banan, but Luo Chaochao's store Also the door is closed.
Banan certainly understands.
After all, their store starts to open at night and stays open until early in the morning. After I leave, the boss will definitely have to do a daily inventory and calculate the accounts.
Just because I haven't slept all night, doesn't mean the boss will also stay up all night. I guess he hasn't woken up yet.
They were not in a hurry to knock on the door and go in, they just waited at the door, for fear of disturbing Luo Chaoxi's good sleep.
The system naturally discovered that Banan and the others were waiting outside the door, but now that Luo Chaochao was absorbing the critical moment, it was inconvenient to disturb them, so instead of calling Luo Chaochao, they asked a few of them to wait outside.
Luo Chaochao was originally the owner of the protective array. After the protective array was upgraded to a high level, Luo Chaochao, as the owner, could feel everything within five meters outside the store.
If Luo Chaoxi was still awake, he would naturally be able to detect someone outside the door, but now he just got the knack of cultivation and was completely immersed in cultivation, so he didn't notice it.
On his side, he absorbed all the spirit stones on the table, and the energy slowly circulated in his body, and the body's protection mechanism was lifted, and he finally woke up.
Luo Chaochao only felt that he had broken through something, his body was extremely light and powerful, and his consciousness seemed to be able to reach every corner of the room with his thoughts. It was precisely because of this that Luo Chaochao could better perceive how terrifying the protective array of this system was. .
【Go take a shower. 】The system reminded him, 【Congratulations, you can buy more advanced cheats, which are quite expensive as I remember. 】
Luo Chao found that the system really liked to pour cold water on himself, especially when he should be congratulated for his promotion.
He was obviously very happy, but the system suddenly said, cheat books are very expensive.
It can't be said that what he said is wrong, because the cultivation cheats after foundation establishment are very expensive. Although Luo Chaoxi can afford them, he feels uncomfortable when he thinks that he has been spending money and not making money.
[Has anyone ever told you that you can't read air? 】
【You are my first host. 】
So no one else is saying I can't read air.
And there is no need to read air in the capacity of system 001.
Luo Chaoxi didn't bother to pay attention to him, so he found a family of three sitting outside the door, looked at the time, it was only less than eight o'clock, why did he seem to be waiting outside for a long time, he quickly let them in .
One looked like an old man in his 60s, and the other was a little girl who was only as tall as his waist. Her withered hair was carefully tied up with a hemp rope, and her clothes were ragged but clean.
Luo Chaochao's first impression of them was not bad, at least the clerks in the food store must be clean so that everyone can eat with peace of mind. It is a naked lesson to eat customers directly into the medical hall like Boss Rong.
"Hi, boss." They stood up quickly, and Banan introduced: "This is my grandfather, and this is my sister."
"Come in first." Luo Chaochao let them in, poured a glass of water for each of them, and then put a piece of paper in front of everyone. On it were simple arithmetic problems, all of which were three-digit addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. The elderly's were even more difficult. One point, there are also questions on word recognition and writing.
After all, what was required at the beginning was literacy, and Luo Chaochao would not release water just because he was a relative of Banan.
"Let's not talk nonsense, answer this question, Banan, I have something to go out, I put the ingredients to be processed in the back kitchen, and you can deal with them later, and I will trouble you both, no matter what Those who fail to pass will be paid for their work today." Luo Chaoxi said.
Banan nodded, and wrote down everything Luo Chao said. Luo Chao asked them to make papers first, and then put today's ingredients in ice cubes and put them in the freezer.
Originally, there was no need for ice cubes, but in order to conceal that it was a refrigerator, Luo Chaochao could only put more ice cubes in it.
Luo Chaochao and Master Yin made an appointment to meet at ten o'clock, and there was still an hour and a half before ten o'clock, Luo Chaochao had to go there ahead of time, that is to say, Luo Chaochao still had forty minutes to give them an interview.
Even if you don't need it, you have to get busy with today. Today, he may not be able to come back before opening at night.
Luo Chaochao took advantage of the time when they were making the test paper to briefly write down the seasoning, and then wrote down the process on the paper, and even made preparations for not coming back tonight.
"We're done." After Luo Chaochao finished writing, he went upstairs to get the gift he had prepared for today's visit, and saw that the three of Banan were already standing aside with the finished paper, waiting for Luo Chaochao to review it.
Luo Chaochao's attitude towards these things is not bad, and he can tell whether it is correct or not at a glance. Seeing that there are only ten minutes left, Luo Chaochao simply asks, focusing on why Grandpa Ba passed the Tongsheng exam Still so poor.
It stands to reason that even if a person who can read and write works as an accountant in a store, even if he writes family letters for others, he will not be so miserable, unless there is something unspeakable, or he is too lazy.
Grandpa Ba sighed and explained: "I had already taken the examination of scholar, but another examinee from my hometown was rich and powerful, so he changed my paper when grading. He took my grade and paper, and now I have already gone to the capital to be an official, but in order to cut grass and roots, I had to take my family to Kangping City. We were separated from my son and daughter-in-law on the way, and finally survived, but my leg was broken. I’ve been here for two months. Thanks to Nan Yazi going outside to earn money, I, an old man, survived.”
Banan touched his face in embarrassment: "I only have grandpa and sister left..."
In ancient times, the patriarchal situation was very serious. Those who can run out with their granddaughters at this time are those who love their families.Seeing how attached Ba Yu was to his grandfather and elder brother, and knowing that the two were not lying, he was sure that what the other said was true.
"Where are the papers?" Luo Chaochao asked.
"Here." Banan took out three folded scrolls, ink marks could be seen from the back, and it could be seen that there were no traces of modification, and they should have been put away after they were finished and dried.
After Luo Chaochao took it, he opened his eyes and saw the three-digit addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division in it. Luo Chaochao could get the answer with just a glance.
The first one was from Banan.
Banan was good at arithmetic, but not at reading.
This is not a big problem, as long as you can remember the words on the menu and some commonly used words.
As for Bayu, she is not very good at arithmetic, but she is good at reading and writing, and she can use it and pass it. Banan's grandfather not only writes beautifully, but can even write articles, and he also does all the arithmetic problems in it. correct.
"Yes, the assessment has passed first, but the first month is the probationary period, and the wages are settled daily, [-] yuan a day. Because Banan is a skilled worker, it will be higher. After a month, your wages will rise to [-] yuan. , in the middle of every month, you will pay the bill, and you will be provided with meals, and you will be covered after the trial period is over. Is there any problem with this treatment?"
More than just a problem?
This treatment is quite good, there are not many restaurants in the entire Kangzhou city that can pay [-] yuan a day and pay back meals!
The three naturally nodded in agreement. Luo Chaoxi took advantage of the last few minutes to explain the precautions when he was away, and then called Banan over alone, and taught him what to say if a guest came early, or someone came to look for him. How to deal with it yourself.If Musa and his guards came over yesterday, let them help with the ingredients first.
This very trusting attitude made Banan a little at a loss, but he immediately understood that this should be the test given to them by the boss. If they can pass today's test, they will be able to work in the store.
So Banan nodded seriously: "I know the boss, you can go at ease."
"Then I'll trouble you." Luo Chaoxi said, and hurriedly left the store with the gift he had packed.
Master Yin lived in a separate courtyard.
Although people with their identities can also live in inns, but with the sensitive status of Master Yin, they brought a lot of guards, so after arriving in Kangping City, the Jiedu envoy simply arranged a set of three-entry houses for them. Master Yin lived here temporarily, and he also arranged a lot of guards, together with the soldiers he brought, surrounded the small courtyard tightly.
Luo Chaochao hired a carriage, and the clothes he was wearing were the fashionable clothes that were unlocked in the backpack after he reached the second level. They looked like a literati's toga with long sleeves, and his hair was pulled back. He didn't have any accessories, but he really didn't look like a businessman.
Originally, Luo Chaochao could use those pendants in his backpack as gifts, but this kind of thing is a novelty, but how can Luo Chaochao explain where he got it from?
And I don't sell it myself.
After all, I was penniless two days ago and couldn't even pay the rent.
Luo Chaoxi glanced at the things he had brought, and only hoped that Master Yin could understand what he meant, so he could do me a favor by the way.
It's not that Luo Chaochao didn't drink with the leader when he was a social animal.At the beginning, he was still a novice, and he drank with his boss until he needed to go to the hospital for gastric lavage. Later, he got used to it, and he was fine. He could even talk business with the bosses without changing his expression after drinking two taels of white.Now we need to change the way to talk about cooperation with bosses with background.
Master Yin told the concierge in advance that Luo Chaoxi would come to visit, and soon, a middle-aged man about 40 years old ushered in at the gate. The simple-looking but expensive item is obviously not an ordinary waiter.
The other party introduced himself as the butler of the Yin Mansion.
"This is a new gadget for the ladies. I am thinking about letting the ladies try these gadgets, as well as the wine dug up from under their own trees."
The housekeeper had long known that Luo Chaochao was an ordinary small businessman, and probably wouldn't be able to bring out anything valuable, so he didn't feel surprised to see these very simple little things now.
"It's going to be hard for you to wait in the side hall for a while. Someone is looking for the master now, and they are discussing matters now." The housekeeper did not have the same arrogance to the businessman to Luo Chaoxi, and he could see that he was well educated. He said to Luo Chaoxi, "You take a break first, and I will let you know when the master is free."
This is also expected.
Luo Chaochao had no objection, and sat in this small living room.
The butler left the yard, and then asked the servant next to him in a low voice: "Miss and madam haven't come back yet?"
"No, I went out early this morning." The servant next to me said awkwardly, "I said I was going to go shopping and buy some new cosmetics."
But here is no better than the capital, if there is anything new, I must be back soon.
Although there are merchants from Beidi and the Western Regions here, the women in these two places don't take care of themselves very much. They don't even use the ordinary cosmetics of Sheng Kingdom. It's better to stay in the capital and wait for the merchants to deliver expensive cosmetics. .
"Forget it, you can serve him some snacks and tea first, and come over later when the master is free." The butler said to the servants in the small courtyard.
After a while, a few maids came up with some snacks.
They were peach crisps and mung bean cakes, and there was also a bright yellow piece that Luo Chaochao had never seen before.
These dim sums are all made of fine grains, ordinary poor people can't afford them at all, and compared with the western dim sum that Luo Chaoxi had eaten before, this kind of dim sum is lighter and more delicate, not as straightforward and sweet as western dim sum impact.
Western-style dim sum is to put a lot of sugar, using sweetness to give the eater a kind of psychological satisfaction, as well as physical satisfaction.
This is more impactful to the ancient times that lacked sugar. Even nobles who can often eat honey may not be so resistant to desserts. Do you have a soft spot for egg tarts and various taro pies and red bean pies without seeing Musa? ?
Western-style desserts...maybe there are some tricks too?
Luo Chaoxi ate a piece of pastry and took out a wet towel to wipe the crumbs and oil on his hands. He was so idle that he didn't dare to wander around, let alone do useless things, so he could only stand up and stand outside the small hall look at the scenery.
"Really, there is nothing good in this Kangzhou city. Look at your face. Even the doctors here don't like it." On the main road outside the bamboo forest, two beautifully dressed women complained, One is a well-maintained young woman, and the other is a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl. The guards behind her are stacking several boxes in their hands, so high that they can't see their eyes.
The two of them went shopping for less than an hour, and they bought so many things, and this was when the store was not fully open in the morning.
"Just stay in the house for a few days and take good care of it? Shall we go to the nine o'clock restaurant for dinner at night? I heard them say that the barbecue in that restaurant is delicious, and the boss is also very handsome. "The younger girl was beaming with joy, but the jewels on her head didn't sway because of her slightly lively movements.
Even when excited, these girls were taught not to let their ornaments hang around.
"It's just a roadside stall. Why don't you just call the cook to the house to cook for you?" The older woman said, she touched the red marks on her daughter's face, feeling very distressed.
"Old Song, what are these boxes?" The two walked back to the back house, just in time to see Butler Song walking towards the warehouse with a few exquisite boxes.
Within a few days after their family came to Kangzhou City, people big and small in the city began to send gifts to them.
Originally, it would be fine to just ignore it and send it directly to the warehouse, but Mr. Yin doesn't like to accept too expensive gifts, so every time someone sends something, he will open it and check it.
"It was sent by a boss named Luo Chaoxi, who said it was a gadget for the lady." The housekeeper followed the mother and daughter back to the room, and opened several boxes in the small living room.
Coincidentally, the first thing to open was the perfume that Luo Chaochao stored alone.
The two bottles of perfume were placed in a red velvet box. The transparent bottle body and exquisite and ingenious shape immediately hit the hearts of the two women.
"Mother, this one is emerald green!" The daughter carefully picked up the small light blue bottle inside.
This small bottle was made into a streamlined oval shape, and the bottles made in pure industrial batches had no flaws, and they were even more beautiful than the transparent glass they had seen in the capital.
The most important thing is that there is no trace of handwork on it!
Perhaps the modern pursuit is handwork, but at this time, what the nobles are pursuing is that there is no trace of handwork, and it is best to look like natural.
There are also a few strings of incomprehensible patterns engraved on the glass, which are a bit like characters, but the Western Regions and Beidi characters they know are different.
"What is this?" In the box, the daughter found a thin hardwood board that was slightly smaller than the box, but it didn't feel like it. The whole body was black, and the words "True Me" were written on it in golden letters.
Is this the name?
In addition to this small card, there is a thinner but harder paper at the bottom, tied with a bow with a white ribbon, and after opening, there is a small string of text and an instruction manual with pictures.
"Can I use it?" The daughter asked her mother, and she saw that the mother took out another light concubine-colored bottle from another box. This bottle is more girlish, it is light pink, and the liquid inside is also pink. It was made into a round heart shape, each face was cut three-dimensionally, and placed in the sun to refract colorful light, just looking at it made me breathe lightly.
Although Luo Chaochao didn't know much about perfumes, he knew what types of women of different ages probably liked, so one chose a more concise and generous packaging, and the other chose a girlish one. No matter what they like, they can use it, and it turns out that , Luo Chao Chao was indeed right to follow the trend.
The daughter prefers the pink bottle, and the older mother prefers the simple and elegant one.
"This should be very expensive." Mrs. Yin obviously had more worries.
They can't collect valuable items, if they do, they will be caught by their opponents.
"I didn't say anything about it, but the boss who gave the gift is now waiting in the small hall for the master to talk to the Jiedushi. He hasn't left yet. Madam wants to find him now, and he can still be found."
said the butler.
Originally, the daughter was a little frustrated when she heard her mother say not to take it apart, but when she heard that the gift giver was at home, she immediately looked at her mother begging.
"See what's in the other boxes?" Mrs. Yin didn't go immediately, but opened the other boxes.
In addition to the three-piece set of perfume and beauty makeup that Luo Chaochao chose to give at the beginning, he also put some skin care products.
Essence creams, face creams and the like can be replaced with small ceramic jars, but not for sheet masks. There was no such convenient storage device in ancient times, so Luo Chaochao just asked the system to wipe off all the brands of masks and the like. Leave the degradable plastic packaging of pure color, which looks much simpler, and will not affect the ancient ecological environment and cause pollution because the plastic is difficult to degrade.
There are instructions and effects inside each one, and the packaging on the outside is so simple and beautiful, the mother and daughter are very itchy.
"What is this?"
"It is said to be a kind of candy called chocolate from other countries." The butler looked at the instructions and said, "Maybe the taste is a bit bitter at first, but if you feel it more, you can taste the mellow sweetness."
What Luo Chaochao took was normal-purity milk chocolate with strawberry fruit filling inside, so it won't be hated by people because it's too bitter.
Although sugar is also expensive, it is still affordable for them as they are. Only then did the mother and daughter remove the thin oiled paper packaging outside, revealing the brown chocolate block inside, which is only as thick as a finger, and every inch is concave. The slot can be broken into a small piece that can be directly imported.
Mrs. Yin took a handkerchief and carefully broke off a piece and put it in her mouth.
At first, this strange taste and slightly bitter taste was really unacceptable, but what followed was the dense and smooth taste unique to chocolate.The milky aroma of milk and the slightly bitter chocolate blend together, and the unique aroma of chocolate is intoxicating.
After the chocolate on the outside melted, the strawberry filling inside flowed out from the cracked inside. The completely different sweetness really caught people's attention. Mrs. Yin's eyes lit up immediately, and she liked the texture and taste of this candy very much.
Sure enough, it tasted completely different from the candy I ate before.
Even for rich people like them, there are actually only a few kinds of sweetness that can be tasted.
The best is honey, then maltose, or dried fruit, as for the others, I really haven't eaten much.
This kind of texture and taste has never been experienced before, and it is not unpalatable, and it even feels a bit delicious after eating a few more pieces.
Mrs. Yin can still control herself not to eat too much. Miss Yin over there is already tearing apart the second piece, and there is even a little brown mark on the side of her mouth. This is considered rude in the Yin family, which is very strict in tutoring. up.
In addition to these, there are several white disks in these boxes. Mrs. Yin opened it and looked at it, and there were various eye shadows inside.A total of five sets of nine-color eyeshadow palettes with different colors, two sets of four-color blushes, one set of five lipsticks, and two sets of thirteen makeup brushes. The makeup brushes are made of rabbit fur, which is very soft to the touch, very similar to The rabbit fur collar won't prick your hands.
"What is this?" Miss Yin came over to look again.
These things are so interesting that she has never seen them before.
"This is... cosmetics?"
They had never seen such a style before, and it was very novel. They touched the eye shadow with their fingers and scratched it on their arms.
The delicate powder leaves a conspicuous mark on the arm, the blush is lighter in color to highlight a natural look, and the lipstick is screwed out according to the instructions.
All kinds of red and pink immediately captured their hearts.
Especially there is a very small but very clear and non-polarized mirror on the top cover of the lipstick. They can see themselves after applying lipstick from the mirror.
This is comparable to the mouth they use now
