Chapter 203: Your soaps and perfumes are really amazing, and so cheap!

Of course, some people had noticed it a long time ago, after all, this shop was being renovated a few days ago.

When I saw it today, I found that it has completely changed compared to before.

There are three large flower baskets on each side of the shop door, and the baskets contain the most appropriate flowers for the occasion, which are beautiful and fragrant.

There are also red banners on it with the names of the donors written on them.

Above the gate is a simple and elegant plaque with the four large characters "Yingfengxiangfang" written on it in a vigorous and powerful manner, yet with a touch of elegance.

This shop was already very large, and now it was painted in a light platinum color, making it look even more spacious, bright, and luxurious.

The store is lined with rows of shelves of goods, with green vines entwined around them, making them look lush and lively.

On the shelves, there were things that I had never seen before. I had no idea what they were or what they were used for.

Several waiters and ladies with identical clothes and hairstyles stood on both sides, all smiling and welcoming the guests.

Everything is very different from other stores.

Although some people find it weird, many others find it refreshing and unique.

"This is my shop. We just opened it today. I didn't expect to encounter this incident."

Chen Xingyun introduced them generously, not feeling embarrassed at all because of her female identity.

Today's official system is open-minded and does not restrict women from doing business. However, most people still maintain traditional customs and do not like women to show their faces in public.

"Your shop looks nice."

He Chunyu looked around and deliberately praised.

"I wonder what you sell in this shop? Is it really better than soapnut powder?"

Chen Xingyun smiled and said, "There are two kinds of items sold in my shop. One is soap, and the other is called perfumed soap."

"Soap is mainly used for washing clothes and hair, and of course, it can also be used for washing hands and bathing."

"I'll have someone wash this dress with soap in front of you all in a moment. I'll make sure it's spotlessly clean for you."

"As for soap, you can use it to wash clothes, but it might be a bit wasteful since it's more expensive."

"Soap is mainly used for washing the face and bathing. It contains various spices and medicinal herbs. It is as good as the bath beans used by wealthy families, but the price is much cheaper."

When she said this, it immediately aroused the interest of many people.

Some wanted to see the soap she was talking about, while others wanted to see the soap that was comparable to bath beans.

This is the first time they have heard of these two things. Are they really that useful?

As they were talking, two waiters had already carried a table out of the shop, a woman brought in a basin of water, and another woman brought in a bar of soap and a piece of scented soap.

"Wan Niang, please help this girl wash this dress. Make sure it is clean."

Chen Xingyun instructed one of the ladies and gave a special reminder.

These people were hired and were paid one or two taels of silver per month. They were also given a uniform when they went to work, so many of them were willing to come.

These people were all selected by Chen Xingyun himself. They are smart and hardworking.

"Don't worry, miss. I will make sure this dress is as clean as new."

Wanniang immediately promised with a smile, and then began to wash the skirt in public.

Everyone stared at them curiously, seeing how confident the master and servant were. Could this soap really be that powerful?

Wanniang first soaked her skirt in water, then took the soap and rubbed it on the dirty area a few times.

Amidst everyone's questioning gazes, he just rubbed it gently.

The crowds watching became more and more skeptical, especially those who washed clothes frequently. They had to add a lot of soapnut powder. Could this soap really be effective if just applied a few times?

Facts tell them that it really works, and the effect is very good.

The grease and dirt disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye, and yellow bubbles appeared.

After rinsing it with clean water, the marks have become very light, which is really magical.

Next, Wanniang rubbed the clothes with soap a few more times, still rubbing them gently. After this time, the marks completely disappeared and were almost invisible.

Not only that, the clothes also exuded a faint floral fragrance, which attracted everyone present to take a few more sniffs.

Afterwards, Wanniang rinsed the skirt several times with clean water until it was completely clean as new.

"My lady, the skirt has been washed. Are you satisfied?"

Chen Xingyun asked with a smile, immediately drawing everyone's attention back.

He Chunyu was extremely excited. Even though he knew it was an act, he could hardly suppress his excitement.

"Satisfied, very satisfied! Your soap and fragrance are really amazing!"

"It only takes a few swipes, and you don't need to apply too much pressure when washing. It also takes a short time to clean. No wonder they say it works better than soapnut powder!"

"Besides, this soap smells so good. My daughter loves nice smells on her clothes. She used to use incense after washing. If she uses this soap, wouldn't she even save on incense?"

She praised the soap and the perfumed soap to bits, her eyes sparkling, and she seemed extremely satisfied.

After hearing what she said, the people around her nodded repeatedly.

They had just seen it with their own eyes. These two things really looked very good. They washed clothes effortlessly and cleanly.

So many people were tempted.

Chen Xingyun smiled and said, "As long as the young lady is satisfied, I'll have someone take the skirt to the back to dry. After it's dry, you can take it back."

"Okay, at worst I can just delay the lady for a while." He Chunyu agreed and asked immediately.

"I wonder how much you sell these soaps and perfumed soaps for? The price is right, I want to buy some to take back. My daughter will definitely like them."

The others were about to ask, so they all looked at Chen Xingyun curiously.

Chen Xingyun's smile grew even warmer. "Our soaps and perfumed soaps are all new, and only available in Yun'an County. Since we're all from Yun'an County, the prices are a bit cheaper."

"A bar of ordinary soap like this only costs 20 wen, which is at least equivalent to two boxes of soapnut powder. If it's something more exquisite, it'll cost 50 to 100 wen, and it even comes with a box to store it."

"Soap is a bit more expensive. The kind I just used for washing clothes is 500 coins a piece. There are also more exquisite ones that come in a Huanghuali wood box and cost between 2 and 5 taels of silver."

"But one bar of our soap is worth at least five bath beans, and the price is even lower. Ladies and girls who love beauty shouldn't miss this."

"We have many varieties of soaps and perfumed soaps. If you want to know more about them, you may want to come to the store and check them out in person. We guarantee that you will be satisfied."

As soon as she finished speaking, the crowd burst into heated discussions, and some people even looked surprised.

"That's a really good price. I'm talking about soap. How can such a useful thing only cost 20 cents a piece?"

"Yes, I thought it would be at least 30 wen. After all, a box of soapnut powder costs 7 wen. I think this soap is indeed better than soapnut powder, and the style is also beautiful."

"If you think it's cheap, you can buy more expensive ones. Didn't the young lady just say there are 50 or 100 wen ones?"

"I'd like to buy a bar of soap to try. I can't afford those bath beans, but the cheapest soap here is only 500 wen, and one bar is worth five bath beans."

"I want to buy a bar of soap and try it too. That way, we can use the same soap as the ladies of rich families."

"Yeah, it still smells good after washing. Won't the man at home be completely seduced by it?"

"Pfft... What kind of obscene things are you saying here? How shameless!"

“…”

Looking at this situation, surprisingly few people think it is expensive, which is very different from Hongye Town!
