Make money through high profile

Chapter 4 [Minor Repair]

Qian Yu didn't sleep much all night, always thinking about how to make these flowers and plants into skin care products with limited tools.

In the morning, Qian Ying saw that he looked sluggish, and asked worriedly, "Is Xiaoyu too tired from reading?"

"It's okay, I just didn't sleep well, and I'll be fine if I sleep well tonight."

"Otherwise, my sister will cook fish soup for you at noon, and the fish soup will soothe your nerves."

"No need, fish must be quite expensive, right?"

Qian Ying nodded: "It's also expensive, but it's better than meat." Qian Ying continued with some annoyance: "Sister, it's true. You didn't like fish before, so you never thought of buying it. Fish is more healthy than meat." , should let you eat more."

Qian finally understands that in Nanyang, anyone who can give birth to cubs is expensive, "Sister, I really don't need to eat, we have to save some money, don't we?"

"No matter how much you save, you can't save on food. You are growing your body. If you are short of food and drink, how can your body grow well? Whether your health is good or bad depends on you for the rest of your life."

Qian Yu was speechless, he was very eloquent to strangers, he was trained in selling goods before, and he was not a problem with small tricks.On the contrary, it's not good to talk to the familiar ones, especially the family members who are kind to him. They are very stupid.

After Qian Ying said something, he went out to buy fish. Qian Yu wanted to follow, but Qian Ying told him to read a book at home.

Qian Yu had nothing to do in the house, so he went to the door and walked around. He didn't know the place, so he didn't dare to go far.Instead, I saw that old couple again, walking hand in hand, looking very happy.

Qian Yu stared at it for a while, and suddenly felt a little envious.In his previous life, he was busy making money, but he didn't have a girlfriend. It was because he was too stingy, and no woman would like to be with him. I don't know if he can meet someone who doesn't think he is stingy in this life.

By noon, Qian Ying hadn't come back yet.Qian Yu couldn't help worrying if something would happen, he stood at the door anxiously and looked back and forth into the distance.

Fortunately, not long after, I saw Qian Ying walking over with a fish in his arms.

Qian Yu trotted over, took the fish, and asked worriedly, "Why did it take you so long to come back?"

Qian Ying smiled and said, "The fish stalls are a little far away. It's too late for me to hurry. Is Xiao Yu hungry?"

"I'm not hungry, I'm afraid something will happen to you."

"Sister, what can happen, our Puming City is next to Kunnan, so close to the royal family, it's very peaceful."

Qian Yu thought to himself, so this place is called Puming, and Kunnan should be the capital of Nanyang after all.

Qian Yu asked again: "Why is the fish stall so far away? I thought it was in the market."

Qian Ying laughed again: "That was before, there happened to be a fish stall set up by the government in the market next to our mansion. Now it's no longer the case, this street is relatively remote, farther away from the fish stall set up by the government. "

"Sell fish and return it to the government?"

"That's right. In Nanyang, private fishing is not allowed. It's all managed by the government. I heard that there is a specified quantity. Only fish stalls set up by the government can sell fish."

Qian Yu understood that it was because he was afraid that the people would catch all the fish at once.Fortunately, Nanyang has a small population. If it was in the Celestial Dynasty, wouldn't it be like grabbing a train ticket for fish?

The two entered the room while talking, Qian Ying quickly went to cook, Qian Yu wanted to help, but Qian Ying said nothing.

Qian Ying's cooking skills are still average, but he hasn't eaten fish for a long time, and he feels pretty good.

"Sister, I want to visit the rouge shop this afternoon."

"Want to buy rouge? Xiaoyu, tell me the truth, do you have a crush on some girl?"

Qian Yu quickly said: "No, I just want to see what kind of rouge there is."

"My sister has it all, why go to the rouge shop?"

"I haven't seen you put on rouge, so I thought you didn't."

Qian Ying smiled wryly and said, "It's all left over from before, and I can't think of painting it." Who is it for?

Qian Yu said: "Then show it to me this afternoon?"

"Why is Xiaoyu so interested in Rouge?"

"Well, I want to do the rouge business."

Qian Ying frowned lightly and said: "This business is not easy to do. There is no profit in rouge, and those rouge shops do not specialize in selling rouge, they all sell clothes and accessories, and rouge is only sold with a little bit."

"Why is this happening?"

"The materials used for rouge are all over the place, and many people can make them themselves, so of course they can't be sold at a high price."

"Oh? Then sister, can you do it?"

Qian Ying laughed triumphantly and said playfully, "Of course!"

Qian Yu said happily: "Really?!"

"Of course it is true. You were young at the time, so you may not remember. When our family was not rich, my sister often helped our mother make rouge. At that time, our mother was a well-known beauty in all directions, and she was especially good at dressing up."

Qian Yu was surprised and said: "Then why did you marry our father?" Isn't it difficult to marry a daughter-in-law? At that time, he was poor, so how could he marry a beautiful woman?

Qian Ying's smile slowed down, and she said helplessly: "Our mother's fate is not good. I heard that there was an arranged husband's family in the past. It was a very rich family, and our mother was still a childhood sweetheart. As a result, before we were going to get married, my mother went to the temple. I accidentally broke my leg while offering incense. The doctors said that this leg will not get better, and I will have to walk with a limp in the future. Unexpectedly, when the man heard about it, he immediately ran to divorce his mother My mother couldn't think about it, she ran to the river to commit suicide, and was saved by my father."

Qian Yu feels cold in his heart, and likes vulgar plots.This is also due to the blessing of Mr. Qian, most people would not run to the riverside to commit suicide if they have bad legs and feet.This is what should be done, what is destined.

Qian Ying said again: "However, no one thought that our mother would be so prolific. She gave birth to me not long after I married my father, and then gave birth to you a few years later. I am so envious of others." The family has no children so far, this is all retribution!

Qian Yuxin said, really, judging from the current low birth rate, the mothers of these two sisters are really able to give birth.

"Sister, you will teach me how to make rouge this afternoon."

"Are you still planning to do it?"

"Ah."

"Okay then." Qian Ying knew that her younger brother was very stubborn. Although she felt that there was no future in the rouge business, she also thought that when her younger brother knew that he was no longer making money, he would naturally stop.

In the afternoon, Qian Ying went out for a trip, and when she came back, she was holding a large bouquet of flowers.

Qian Ying handed the flowers to Qian Yu, "These are called red and blue flowers, and Rouge is made of these flowers."

Qian Yu nodded, he also recognized the red and blue flowers.

Qian Ying took out a pile of things in bottles and jars, and explained while doing it, "After picking the red and blue flowers, the first step is to "kill the flowers". Pick the leaves, mash them, wash them with water, and spin them with white cloth." Filter out the leaf dregs with a cloth. Wash the remaining juice with vinegar, so that only red is left. Then pour the red pulp into a bag made of fine silk and hang it to drain the water.” Qian Yinghang The good bag said again: "Okay, let's twist it into small cakes when it is half dry tomorrow, and after drying in the shade, it will be powdery rouge cakes."

Qian Yu observed carefully from the side, and the ancients' method of extracting colors was extremely wise.From the perspective of modern chemistry, the basic principle is that substances react differently to certain solutions due to their different internal physical and chemical structures and properties.Red and blue flowers contain two pigments, red and yellow. The yellow pigment is soluble in acid solution and can be removed by dissolving it with vinegar; the red pigment is not soluble in acid solution, so it will not be dissolved.If you want to remove the red color, you can wash it with alkaline solution.

"Can this rouge be used for both face and lips?"

Qian Ying nodded: "Yes."

"Is there anything else?"

"There are also thrushes, you wait for sister to bring them for you to see."

Qian Ying went back to the room and took out all her rouge powder and put it on the table for Qian Yu to see.

Qian Yu looked at them one by one, and there were only so many differences in total, it was really monotonous.

Qian Ying picked up the thrush pen and said, "This one is made of graphite. It can be used to draw eyebrows by dipping it in water. There is also a kind of black ash that is condensed after burning cotton wool with sesame oil. It can also be used for drawing eyebrows after drying."

Qian Yu nodded, already having a thought in his mind, "Sister, do we have agaric here?"

Qian Ying was stunned for a moment, but didn't realize it for a while, why did she suddenly mention the cauliflower again? "Is it the one that grows in the sea?"

"That's right." He was really afraid that there would be none here.

"That's right. There are fish stalls selling them. They are very cheap. Xiao Yu wants to eat?"

"I don't want to eat it, but I want to use it as a skin care product."

"Skin care products?"

"It just makes the skin better and better after applying it on the face."

"real or fake?"

"Of course it's true." Qian Yu thought, now he can try a skin care product first.Throughout the ages, whitening and freckle removal has always been the most sought after by women. Qian Yu decided to make a skin care product for whitening and freckle removal first.

Using the acetic alkali decolorization method used to make rouge, the juice of flowers and plants can be made white.When the agarose is heated and melted, it becomes agar, which is a gelatinous seaweed essence.It can be eaten and wiped on. Qian Yu intends to use aloe vera, rose, lemon, and evening primrose to prepare a whitening and freckle-removing juice, and then mix it with agar to make the freckle-removing juice into a paste, which is convenient for application and storage. .

"Is it feasible?" Qian Ying was still worried.

In order to reassure her, Qian Yu said, "It's feasible, I read it from the book."

When Qian Ying heard that it was in the book, she felt relieved.In her consciousness, everything said in the book is correct, and only a knowledgeable person like her younger brother can understand it. "Then Xiaoyu made it and let my sister wipe it first."

Qian Yu smiled and said, "Okay."
