I have a supermarket system, shocking the whole court

Chapter 33 Crisis and Business Opportunity

Ning Ning approached Shang Wenqi in disbelief, wanting to confirm whether he was really injured inside his sleeve.

However, as he approached Shang Wenqi, he didn't have time to see clearly what was in the hole, and the next second he felt a darkness in front of his eyes.

Shang Wenqi simply waved his hand and pushed her back to her original position.

Although the force was not strong, it was enough to make the weak woman, who was powerless, fall to the ground.

Ning Ning got up cursing.

"Shang Wenqi, I find you are really too much. You don't like to be called Brother Qi. As an ally, you care about whether you are injured, but you don't appreciate it. You either make me mute or slap me away. If I care about you again in the future, I will be your grandson."

Shang Wenqi was shocked by her heartfelt cursing and looked at her in astonishment.

"What are you looking at? I won't apologize!" Ning Ning frowned, her eyes full of anger.

Anyway, he is no longer the strongest, so there is no need to tie him up. When we get to the capital, we can just go our separate ways!

After Ning Ning finished speaking, she turned around and sat facing the wall with her back to him.

Ning Ning looked really angry, completely different from her hypocritical and weak expression before. Shang Wenqi was stunned at first, then he felt both amused and helpless, with a rare smile in his eyes. Unfortunately, Ning Ning had her back to him, so he missed it.

In the end, Shang Wenqi didn't explain, but just dealt with the wound hastily.

The two still maintained a cold relationship and ignored each other even when riding in the same carriage.

But for Shang Wenqi, this is normal.

They were not friends, nor were they allies. His mission here was just to bring Ning Ning back to Beijing.

After this little episode, Ning Ning, who had been running around in the troupe, also calmed down. After all, Shang Wenqi didn't say who he had a conflict with. If it was someone lurking in the dance troupe, it would be dangerous for her to run around everywhere.

Of course, even if he is not a member of the dance troupe, it proves that this person is lurking around the dance troupe. Running around everywhere by himself is equivalent to exposing himself to danger, which is not cost-effective.

All in all, Ning Ning never moved around except at mealtimes these past two days, so much so that everyone in the dance troupe was not used to it and kept inviting her to play together.

Ning Ning didn't dare to be arrogant, and finally Shang Wenqi gave in. He got out of the car and gave them the space.

So, these days, it was Ning Ning who visited the house instead of the dancers.

Shang Wenqi had no idea what method Ning Ning used to become so close friends with the dancers in just a few days, until now, he finally understood.

Ning Ning had been discussing rouge and powder with them. The dancers from the Western Regions had a lot of spices, and no one knew how Ning Ning persuaded them, but the dancers all voluntarily presented the spices to her. Ning Ning then tinkered with rouge and powder with them, and after a while, they became close sisters.

Of course, these innocent little girls often gave away their gold beads and gold necklaces as tribute to someone.

Shang Wenqi curled the corners of his mouth. He was actually somewhat accustomed to this situation. It would be strange if she was not greedy for money.

It’s also fortunate that she is a woman. If she were a man and passed the imperial examination and got a government job, she would definitely become a corrupt official in the future.

Shang Wenqi felt inexplicably happy for Daliang.

However, these were all Shang Wenqi's inner complaints, and he did not really interfere. As long as she did not delay her trip to Beijing, it was fine. As for which unlucky guy she cheated on the way, it was not within his jurisdiction.

What was giving Shang Wenqi a headache at this moment was the people who recognized him. Although he had killed them, there were still hidden dangers. He couldn't help but frown and lowered his hat again.

In the carriage, Ning Ning was happily handing the last box of rouge to Bonnie.

"This is yours, sorry to have kept you waiting."

"What are you talking about? I should be thanking you. Keep this!" Bonnie said as she took off the ring on her hand and stuffed it into Ning Ning's hand in a very polite manner.

"You're too polite. You've already given me earrings before." Ning Ning declined.

"No, I still need to order that foundation cream! And these things are just for show but not for use to us. I'll give them to you as a favor."

Bonnie was smiling, and the other little sisters also looked kind.

As dancers from the Western Regions, the thing they had the most was gold jewelry. Every time they performed, they would receive a reward from a nobleman, and everyone had accumulated quite a bit.

However, these things generally cannot be bought and sold, mainly because ordinary people cannot afford them, the pawn shops lower the price too much and it is not worth it, and the nobles look down on those used by dancers.

All in all, the good things became useless in the hands of the dancers. Instead of handing them over to the troupe owner, it would be better to give them to Ning Ning as a favor. It was quite a good deal to exchange the gold jewelry for high-quality rouge and powder.

"Okay, then I'll make more styles and make sure all the sisters are satisfied."

"Okay, okay, it's up to you."

The dancers were very satisfied. They took the latest batch of rouge and left happily.

Ning Ning, who had finally seen everyone off, was now happily counting today's earnings.

That’s right, this was a new way to make money that she figured out when she went to Beijing with the dance troupe - making rouge and powder.

Through these days of contact, Ning Ning discovered that the dancers basically made their own rouge and powder.

They brought many spices from the Western Regions, which they mixed with white flour, rice, and even Chinese medicinal materials, wild flowers and weeds. They ground them into powder, boiled them with lard, and dried them.

After some house-like operations, foundation, rouge, lipstick, etc. are made.

The things are indeed natural and pollution-free, but they are also very rough. More importantly, these things are easy to spoil in the hot summer and have to be redone every now and then. Along the way, everyone has to practice dancing and make rouge and powder, so they are very busy.

Ning Ning also discovered it by accident and helped with the production on the first day. As the finished products were completed, she suddenly realized that these cosmetics from the Western Regions were not very good.

It is not as good as those in the Central Plains, let alone modern ones.

So Ning Ning unconsciously started to think about Yiwu small commodities. Is it possible that she could bring modern cosmetics back to ancient times and sell them?

Although the dance troupe came to avoid disaster, they were covered in golden ornaments, which had dazzled Ning Ning's eyes a long time ago.

Using this to barter... is quite a good idea.

Ning Ning went to the mall that night and finally found a seller who could provide ready-made blush and lipstick, even with matching boxes.

However, Ning Ning did not need the boxes provided by the merchant for the time being. She only ordered the finished product, and then processed it herself and put it into the box provided by the dancer.

Not to mention, whether it is foundation or rouge and lipstick, they are much better than those made by dancers, and they have a longer shelf life.

As for the spices given by the dancers, she hid them for the time being.

One can imagine how surprised the dancers were when they saw the finished products. Everyone was asking Ning Ning how she made them, but Ning Ning just vaguely said that this was a secret recipe of her family that was not passed on to others.

The dancers actually accepted this reason.

People stopped asking for the recipe and started to order from Ning Ning.

So Ning Ning started to make rouge and powder with the dancers.
