After dressing as a widow

A few days later, Mrs. Shi sent to ask Lin Zhen to go to the house. Only then did Lin Zhen know that Mrs. Shi had solicited several business deals for him. He took a booklet and wrote down the names of these noble ladies one by one, and told them that it would take seven or eight Days can be done.

Mrs. Shi really likes these noble ladies who have seen Lin, and they all said that there is no hurry.

Lin Zhen once again thanked Mrs. Shi for showing her kindness to him. Mrs. Shi smiled and said: "Thank you, next time you figure out something new, just send me two copies, just like the one with Yurong pink flower dew." Generally speaking, I will not refuse anyone."

After interacting with her a few times, Lin Zhen felt some of Mrs. Shi's temperament. She has a straightforward temperament and can't tolerate sand in her eyes, but just like him, as long as she is distracted one or two times, she will treat people well.

Lin Zhen looked at her and said, "Sure, I will deliver it to Madam in person."

The intuitive makeup effect of Yurong powder flower lotion and lipstick can be seen by anyone with eyes. Since Yong'an Hou's mansion, Ministry of Industry Minister's mansion, and those wives introduced by Mrs. Shi have bought it, more and more people have come to the door. There were knocks on the door of Lin Zhen's house from morning till dark.

Lin Zhen was afraid of disturbing Gu Lin's study, so he simply bought the house behind this yard, and went to Ren Yazi to buy a few brothers and daughters and a complete family of prostitutes, and let them each take charge of a step. The production of white jade powder, purple jade powder, jasper powder, toilet water and lipstick is still under the sole control of myself, and I spend on it every day.

He also forcibly spared a little time to get out the playbook for the old troupe master, but he really didn't have the time to conceive a new story, so he randomly picked up "Legend of the White Snake" from his memory, which is suitable for all ages, and almost all Chinese people All the stories I have heard are written in a script and sent to the old class leader.

Time passed quickly after getting busy. When Lin Zhen was walking down the street with his notebook in his mouth, he realized that the weather had gradually warmed up. It seemed that it was suddenly transitioning from winter to spring, and the clothes on the passers-by were also dressed more colorfully. At that time, there were few letters.

Lin Zhen counted the days and found that it was already the [-]th of February, and almost half a month had passed since Huaxin. Fortunately, the old class leader was calm and did not look for him.

Suddenly, just as Lin Zhen was going to the place where Qianhong Opera Troupe lived, a middle-aged man stopped his way: "Lin Fulang, our shopkeeper wants to talk to you about a business, it's in the Sanjiang Tower, go up Sit down."

Lin Zhen looked at the person who stopped him, and looked at the Sanjiang Tower next to him: "I don't know you, and I don't know your shopkeeper either."

The man said: "When we met for the first time, we were not familiar with each other, but we will become familiar with each other in the future."

"I'm sorry, I'm still in a hurry, so I won't go to Sanjiang Tower, and I don't think I have anything on me that is worthy of your shopkeeper's cooperation, so excuse me first." Lin Zhenzhen said with a headache, this day Yes, from the day he sold Yurong powder toilet water and lipstick to Mrs. Shi, he knew that this time would come.

The quality of the jade powder he made is first-class, and it quickly spread in Mrs. Shi's circle. In just half a month, he has already earned more than 3000 taels of silver, and more orders are yet to come. , not yet shipped.

Moreover, powder and toilet lipstick are consumables, which can continuously earn more money for a long time.

He has taken so many orders from noble ladies and noble daughters, the man who monopolizes the rouge and gouache business in Kyoto should have noticed it, and he couldn't wait to come to his door.

Lin Zhen wouldn't follow if he didn't know who the other party was and what power was behind him.

At least the other party will stop him on the street now, talking about discussing cooperation, and he should still be afraid of the power of his group of guests.

The people who stopped Lin Zhen saw that Lin Zhen refused, his face twitched, a little ferocious, "Fu Lang really won't go?"

"I've never met you. If I followed you just based on your words, I would be really stupid."

The expression on Lin Zhenzhen's face became more and more ferocious, and he reached out to forcefully drag him into the Sanjiang Tower. Lin Zhen said: "If you touch me, I will immediately call for help. Look at the Jingdu who is patrolling the streets over there." People from the yamen, can you get here before you drag me to Sanjiang Tower?"

The people from the Yamen in Kyoto patrol the streets every day, and they happened to be here right now, not to mention that the people who stopped Lin Zhen wanted to pull him in, I'm afraid they would run to them as soon as they came across them.

The person who stopped Lin Zhen obviously didn't want to make matters worse, he gritted his teeth and said, "Since Lin Fulang is inconvenient right now, let's talk again when we have time."

Lin Zhen watched him leave in front of her eyes without squinting, and walked away quickly after confirming that the man had entered Sanjiang Tower.

Upstairs in Sanjiang, the man who stopped Lin Zhen just now said to the man sitting by the window on the second floor: "Master, that Lin Fulang obviously doesn't want to hand over the prescription in his hand, how about we..."

The meaning in his eyes is that he has moved bad thoughts.

If Lin Zhen was here, he would know who it was when he saw the person in front of him. It turned out to be the first rouge and gouache shop he went to with Yurong powder dew, the shopkeeper of Furong Pavilion. The price of a box of ten pennies for powder and eight pennies for mouthwash.

At this moment, he looked at Lin Zhen's back, and said: "I didn't expect that what he took that day turned out to be that jade face powder. If I knew it, I should have a look at it, so I bought the prescription at that time."

"Don't act rashly for now, I'll report this situation to the master above first."

"But the shopkeeper, now half of the noble ladies and ladies in the capital have not ordered our rouge and gouache, and the loss is a lot of money!"

"What's the use of you howling in front of me? What is the money he earns now? If you give him some more time, he can take all the orders of the noble ladies and daughters in the capital!" The shopkeeper of Furong Pavilion was also in a bad mood. He scolded the people under him angrily, "But don't you look at those people he sold, which one you and I can afford!"

"Forget it?!" The people under the shopkeeper of Furong Pavilion said unwillingly. When have they been so aggrieved in the past few years? Lang hit the wall.

The shopkeeper of Furong Pavilion said: "I just said that you are impatient. Didn't you report this to the master above? Don't say that he is not a rich man, but a poor man who relies on those noble ladies for business. See if the person behind you is tough, who is our master, the younger brother of the imperial concubine, there are not many who can be more expensive than him."

It was their master who took a group of well-known prostitutes from Kyoto to enjoy themselves a few days ago, and he might have to wait for a while before returning.

Lin Zhen left the street with his story book in his mouth, and went straight to the place the old class leader told him. This land is also in Nancheng District, but it is a little far away from where he and Gu Lin live, almost close to Nancheng District. the edge of the city.

When he arrived, he heard the sound of opera singers hanging their voices from the yard, and the master was speaking to the young actors.

After he knocked on the door, the door opened quickly. It was an eight or nine-year-old brother: "May I ask who Fulang is looking for?"

Lin Zhen looked at this guy and said: "I'm looking for your old class leader, just tell him that Lin Zhen is here."

"So you are Boss Lin, come in quickly, Boss Lin, I'll call the head of the class right away!" The brother, with the feminine make-up of a girl painted on his face, looked like a girl, and invited Lin Zhen in.

The people practicing in the yard were startled by his voice, and many people Lin Zhen had met came over to greet him: "Boss Lin."

"Boss Lin."

"Boss Lin, good afternoon, Xiaoshu, go and call the team leader."

Opening the door for Lin Zhen, Xiaoshu's brother, who was called by the Qianhong troupe, laughed and ran into the house.

The girl who played "Mei Niang" asked Lin Zhen to sit on a stone bench in the yard: "Boss Lin, have you done any business recently? You have become famous."

Today, the girl didn't put on the popular big white face like Huaxin that day, but applied a thin layer of powder. Looking at the color, Lin Zhen knew that it was the water-toned powder he bought and studied a few days ago. Rongfen is the same as a box of three taels of silver, but the color doesn't quite match the girl's complexion, it's a bit fake.

Lin Zhendao: "Why have you all heard about it?"

The lady said: "There are a lot of ladies and wives who came to see the show, and they would mention jade powder, flower lotion, and lipstick from time to time, and the makeup on their faces is different from others, so naturally they all know about it. "

"However, Boss Lin, your rouge gouache is small, and many people who have placed orders have not yet received it. We have only heard of it, but have not used it yet."

The girl who played "Mei Niang" obviously wanted Yurong powder and Hualu lipstick very much, but she knew that the customers Lin Zhen was selling to were all dignitaries and dignitaries. Will there be any bad influence, so I didn't say that.

Before Lin Zhen could speak, the old class leader walked out quickly. The sound of Boss Lin came to Lin Zhen's ears first, and then flamboyantly held the teapot in one hand and the teacup in the other. He sat opposite Lin Zhen and poured him a cup of tea: "Boss Lin! Boss Lin, let me tell you how you have such a long brain, you can make such a big noise in everything you do!"

"Back then in Anyuan Town, who didn't know the spicy hot milk tea of ​​Zhenyouwei Snacks, who didn't know "Mei Niang" and "Xunxian", and they were vying to give you money, so they wanted to taste it, take a look These two scriptures."

"Now what kind of jade powder flower lotion and lipstick are coming out, hey, you don't know, but all the girls and wives who go to listen to our opera will talk about it, but not many buy it. , the eyes are red, but there is still nothing in the hand!"

He chanted and fought like an opera. Lin Zhen was a little amused. He knew that his jade powder business was doing well. He had sold more than 100 copies, and 200 orders had not yet been shipped. Three hundred copies more, but the grand occasion that the old class leader said was a bit beyond his expectation.

The old class leader saw what he was thinking, and said: "The guests you have now are all powerful officials and women, but there are also a large number of rich but powerless wives and ladies."

"They are still waiting to see the limelight, to see if you only do business with the female family members of the official family, or even their business. As long as you accept an order from a rich family's female family members, your threshold for custody will be broken!"
