The Farm Girl's Charismatic Fortune-Chapter 301 - 297 Wang Cai the Little Boy
Chapter 301: Chapter 297 Wang Cai the Little Boy
Buying?
The wife of the Protectorate Duke’s princely heir squeezed her handkerchief tightly in secret.
The shop’s goods were divided into several series, including skincare and makeup.
The skincare line itself was further divided into multiple series: there were products for whitening, hydrating, sun protection, wrinkle removal, anti-aging, acne treatment, moisturizing, and each had several scents to satisfy different preferences. Then there were products that combined the effects of whitening and hydration, or whitening and moisturizing!
Moreover, all the products tailored for the face, hands, body, and hair were all separate!
There were even special eye creams for the eyes!
Then the makeup options were even more numerous; just the lip colors alone came in dozens of shades and floral scents!
So, adding up all the varieties in the shop, were there over a hundred different items?
The simplest floral-scented cleansing soap cost one tael of silver, and with added whitening properties, the price increased by another tael.
This cleansing soap was the cheapest item in the shop!
The skincare and makeup products were the most expensive; the basic hydrating and moisturizing bottle cost over ten taels, some of the more effective ones cost fifty taels per bottle! And the wrinkle-removing ones were as much as a hundred taels per bottle!
Which means, to buy every item in the shop, a thousand taels wouldn’t be enough!
If she dared to spend a thousand taels on these items, the Princely Heir would turn against her!
Although the Protectorate Duke’s Residence was indeed a duke’s residence and among the founding nobility, the nation had not been established for many years, and their foundation wasn’t as deep as those of the true noble families; she really couldn’t afford it.
Ruo Xuan blinked her big eyes and looked smugly at Princess Kangyi, "Didn’t I tell you? If you buy the whole set, you’ll have priority purchasing rights. What do you think, are you buying or not? Can you even afford it?"
Ruo Xuan then said to the shopkeeper, "Shopkeeper sister, give me a full set, make the packaging beautiful, I want to give it as a gift at the New Year’s Eve palace banquet!"
The shopkeeper barely held back a laugh, and sweetly said, "Alright, a full set of goods, special offer of one thousand three hundred and eighty taels! I wish Princess Wuyou lifelong happiness, health, and prosperity, may you prosper! Once we have the goods nicely packaged, we’ll deliver them to your residence."
Ruo Xuan took out a silver note of one thousand taels and another of five hundred taels from her small purse, "The rest is a tip for you and the other sisters in the shop!"
Flower Shopkeeper said with a smile, "Thank you, Princess Wuyou."
The Capital City was not short of wealthy individuals, and doing business there was prosperous. Many fabulously rich merchants and hundred-year-old noble families had been deep-rooted in the imperial city for several generations, their wealth beyond imagination.
Seeing that as long as one bought the complete set, they could indeed get the products immediately, some who had been waiting for certain products until the flowers wilted couldn’t help themselves, "That’s great, I want a full set too!"
"Flower Shopkeeper, I’ll take a full set as well!"
"Flower Shopkeeper, give me two sets! I want to give one as a gift."
"I want two sets as well."
...
The New Year was approaching, and being able to use these products early would surely make one shine during the festival.
Moreover, giving them as gifts would certainly win people’s hearts.
It’s important to note that once this cosmetics shop opened, it ran out of stock the very next day!
Even when the Empress sent people to buy, they had to queue.
Many ladies in the palace, upon hearing about it, sent people to shop, but none could get their hands on the products.
If someone had a set to give away, it would definitely please those of high status.
Truth be told, every item in this cosmetics shop was incredibly miraculous!
The name of the shop was Immortal Technique, and those who used the skincare products from the shop felt as if the name rang true. It was as if by using them, they were applying an Immortal Technique to their visages, instantly beautifying them—a little more beautiful each day, and starkly more beautiful after three days; after a month, it was as if they had become a completely different person.
If you wanted to get rid of acne, just buy a bottle of their acne treatment product, apply it, and the next day your pimples would deflate, and after three days even the acne marks would vanish!
If you sought to whiten your skin, purchase a bottle of their whitening moisturizer, and within three days you’d be a shade whiter; if you kept using it for a month, you’d become so fair that even acquaintances wouldn’t recognize you!
If you want to get rid of wrinkles, buy a bottle of wrinkle-removing skincare cream to take home. Within three days, it will smooth out a fine line, and if you keep it up for half a year, even if you’re fifty, as long as you don’t smile, there wouldn’t be a wrinkle in sight on your face—it’s almost like getting a facelift, making you look ten to twenty years younger, so at fifty, you would appear to be in your thirties.
Is your skin too dry? Buy our moisturizing product, guaranteed to leave it tender and hydrated!
Is your skin too oily? Get our oil-balancing product, guaranteed to leave your face clean and soft.
...
Anyway, everyone who has used it has said nothing but good things about the product and its effectiveness; nobody thinks it’s expensive because buying ten bottles from other shops doesn’t compare to half a bottle’s effect from here!
Is it expensive? Not at all!
A bottle lasts a very long time!
The only complaint people have is that it’s hard to get!
It’s too difficult to obtain!
Flower Shopkeeper said with a smile, "All right, ladies, please follow me to the counter to register."
Then the Flower Shopkeeper didn’t forget to ask the Zhenguo Crown Princess, "Crown Princess, do you want to make a purchase? Shall I register for you? We can write it down, and when we deliver the goods, we’ll collect the silver at your door."
Ruo Xuan glanced over at Princess Kangyi, raising an eyebrow, "Princess Kangyi, are you buying? The shop’s stock probably isn’t abundant, oh, and if you don’t buy now, there might be none left."
Princess Kangyi was fuming, "We’re buying too! It’s not like we can’t afford it! Mother, we’re buying!"
The wife of Protectrate Duke’s heir had no way out now; she could only use the silver saved as her dowry, or else she’d lose face inside out.
After all, she represented the face of the Protectorate Duke’s Residence.
She smiled faintly and said, "Would you please also deliver a set to the Duke Residence, Flower Shopkeeper?"
Flower Shopkeeper replied with a smile, "Of course! We will make sure it’s delivered within the hour."
The wife of Protectrate Duke’s heir managed a rigid smile, "Great!"
Then she completely forgot about her appointment and hurried home to prepare the silver.
After wandering around the shop for a while, Ruo Xuan had earned quite a fortune, and now it was time for her to head back, to have her household skincare products delivered here.
She knew there were indeed no ready-made products left in the shop.
And not this many sets available either.
Fortunately, Divine Lord Xuanyuan had suggested if she had too much time on her hands, she could make some of the older products in the carriage, since the New Year was approaching and the shops in the Capital City would definitely be short on stock.
Otherwise, she wouldn’t dare to trick Princess Kangyi like this today!
With a mischievous wink at the Flower Shopkeeper, Ruo Xuan then left the shop.
Upon leaving the shop, He Xinghua sighed, "The people of the Capital City are too rich." freewebnσvel.cøm
They decide to purchase things worth over a thousand taels as if they were spending a mere copper coin.
More than a thousand taels, this was an amount she didn’t even dare to dream of before.
Madam Liu said, "There will always be fabulously wealthy people in the world, whose wealth is beyond our imagination."
Madam Jiang nodded, "Some people spend over a hundred taels on a single meal, while others get by with a penny for two buns. I wonder how others make their silver."
He Xinghua and Yichu, upon hearing this, simultaneously turned to look back at the cosmetics shop. Observing the people inside and the queue outside waiting to make an appointment, they suddenly realized how others made their silver.
Sometimes, those in business don’t even know how much they’ve earned!
No wonder it’s said some merchants are wealthy enough to rival nations.
Xuanbao really is a fortune-bringing child!
