After Retiring from Marriage, I became the Favorite of a Powerful Minister

Shi Qingluo, an expert in agriculture, opened her eyes after her death and transmigrated into an ancient peasant girl.

In the beginning, she was sold by her family and forcibly taken away to ...

Chapter 171: Really Good at Pretending

Shi Qingluo took out the tea fruits that she had picked on the mountain before, squeezed them into tea oil, and took Xi Rong and Xiao Xiaomei to make handmade soap and lipstick.

Xi Rong had a lot of fun.

After making her first bar of handmade soap, she was so excited, "Luoluo, is this the soap we use in the bathroom?"

Shi Qingluo smiled and said, "That one is made of sheep fat, and this one is made of tea oil."

“But the effects are similar.”

"You added aromatherapy to this, so it will smell better."

“It can also be carved into soap flowers.”

Xi Rong sniffed it and said, "It smells really good."

"Then I want some more, so I can carve them into soap flowers and take them back as gifts."

Grandma and aunt will definitely like it.

Shi Qingluo smiled and said, "Okay!"

Then I taught them how to make lipstick.

To make the lipstick, Shi Qingluo first applied it on her own lips.

Xi Rong couldn't wait to take the one she made, and applied it on her lips in front of the bronze mirror, imitating Shi Qingluo's way of applying it.

"This lipstick is really good to use. The color is beautiful and moisturizing. It is much better than lip balm."

Shi Qingluo smiled and said, "As long as you like it!"

After they finished applying the paint, they left the room.

Liang Youxiao and others also discovered that after applying lipstick, they both looked better.

Liang Youxiao immediately became interested, "Qingluo, are you selling the recipes for soap and lipstick?"

He knew that women all loved beauty, and his mother and others spent a lot of money on rouge shops every month.

Therefore, when he saw soap and lipstick, he saw business opportunities.

Shi Qingluo smiled and said, "I won't sell my house, but we can cooperate like skateboarding."

It is quite troublesome to open a workshop by yourself. This kind of thing has a huge market and profit, so it is easy for people to be coveted.

So it's nice to work with these people.

In modern times, seeing that she was really unwilling to take over the company, her father suggested that she invest in some potential companies on her own.

In the future, you will receive various dividends and won’t have to worry about the rest of your life.

Shi Qingluo also did so. She felt that this could be done in ancient times.

In the future, she would become extremely wealthy just by receiving profit dividends, without having to start her own business.

When Liang Youxiao saw that there was a chance, the smile in his eyes deepened.

Just as he was about to speak, Xi Rong spoke first.

"Luoluo, please cooperate with me."

"Let's sell soap and lipstick together. You provide the recipes and come up with new things from time to time, and I'll have people run the business."

"How about we split the money we earn in half?"

Not only Liang Youxiao saw the business opportunity, but Xi Rong did too.

Who would complain about having too much money?

She had always wanted to form a women's army, but with the money she had, it was not difficult to establish one, but it was difficult to keep it going.

Even if her uncle agreed, the court would never give her military funds.

Liang Youxiao: “…” This tigress is actually trying to steal his business.

As soon as the key point came, he proposed a 50-50 split, which made him swallow his words about a 30-70 split.

This woman is so cruel.

He asked, "How about the three of us work together?"

Xi Rong gave Liang Youxiao a disdainful look and said, "Go play somewhere else. I won't take you with me."

Liang Youxiao: “…” I really regret bringing this woman here.

Xi Rui is not interested in doing business, but he enjoys seeing his friends suffer setbacks.

He looked at Liang Youxiao with a gloating look and said, "Brother, it seems that your lofty ambitions cannot be realized. People don't want to play with you."

Liang Youxiao: “…” What kind of friends did he make?

Shi Qingluo treated Xi Rong as a friend, and it was more convenient to cooperate with a woman than with a man.

Especially Xi Rong was so generous that she directly proposed a 50-50 split.

She looked at Xi Rong and said with a smile, "There's no problem with cooperation."

"I will provide the recipes and new tricks from time to time. You can find someone to build a workshop and open a shop, and then sell these things throughout Daliang."

"You've paid more than I have, so there's no need to split it in half. You get 70% and I get 30%."

Shi Qingluo has never been a greedy person.

Especially since her family used to be a wealthy family, she knows some of the twists and turns in business.

It is not easy to manage relationships, build workshops, find people to sell, etc.

In addition, all the early investments were made by Xi Rong, and if they were split in half, the other party would suffer a loss.

She won't take advantage.

And putting aside the friendship, the Empress Dowager and the Emperor are standing behind Xi Rong.

With a 30:70 split, she not only made money, but also gained connections, so she didn't lose anything.

Xi Rong didn't expect Shi Qingluo to propose a 30-70 split. There are not many people with such a broad mind.

Seeing that Shi Qingluo was serious and determined.

Xi Rong laughed out loud, "Okay, then 30-70."

She put her arms around Shi Qingluo's shoulders and said, "From now on, you are mine. I will protect you."

She really needed the money urgently, so she didn't pretend to refuse.

As soon as Xiao Hanzheng returned home, he saw Xi Rong hugging his young wife's shoulders and saying something like "You will be mine from now on". He couldn't help but face darkening.

The young wife is his only, and no other woman can snatch her away from him.

His eyes flickered, and he spoke weakly, "Madam, I feel a little dizzy."

When Shi Qingluo saw him like this, he immediately walked over worriedly, "Are you sick?"

Xiao Hanzheng held her hand and said, "Maybe I didn't sleep well last night. I feel a little dizzy today."

Shi Qingluo thought about last night when Liang Youxiao and a few others were playing cards in the yard over there. The noise was a bit loud and she was woken up.

Her husband has to read books every night and go to the county school the next day. How hard it is!

So she glared at Liang Youxiao and the others and said, "Play cards quietly tonight. If you disturb my husband's rest, I won't play with you."

Liang Youxiao and others: "..." This Xiao Hanzheng is very bad, and it is obvious that he is pretending. Only Shi Qingluo would believe him.

But it was really fun to follow Shi Qingluo, so I had to accept it with a pinch of my nose, "Okay, let's keep our voices down at night."

Shi Qingluo supported her husband and said to Xi Rong, "We will discuss cooperation later."

Xi Rong looked at Xiao Hanzheng unkindly. What a bad man this was. He was competing with her for Luo Luo.

Then he met Xiao Hanzheng's cold eyes.

In the past, she would not have been able to swallow this.

But in order not to embarrass Shi Qingluo, she could only force a smile and said, "Okay!"

"Just take good care of your frail husband." She said with some gritted teeth.

Xiao Hanzheng bowed to her and said harmlessly, "Thank you for your understanding, Lord."

Xi Rong: “…” What sympathy? This guy is really good at pretending.

Shi Qingluo helped Xiao Hanzheng into the room.

Xi Rong cursed Xiao Hanzheng in her heart and pulled Xiao Xiaomei to continue making soap and lipstick.

Liang Youxiao and a few others went back to the yard to play cards.

After entering the room, Shi Qingluo helped Xiao Hanzheng sit on the bed.

She looked at Xiao Hanzheng with a half-smile, "Husband, are you still dizzy?"

Everyone else could see that he was pretending, but how could she, who had been together for such a long time and had such a good understanding with him, not see it?
