Chapter 058 Modern Society 19

After the hair growth drink was launched on a large scale by the Chinese Research Institute, everyone thought that Shire would return to being an ordinary tea shop. However, who knew that they had launched a new beauty drink.

The usual practice is that there is no publicity, just the terms of the new product are released on various platforms.

However, everyone knows that Shire's drinks are magical, and their effects are determined by their names. Many people went to Donglin City to check out the new products, which triggered a new trend.

"I just bought ten boxes of hair growth drink at the supermarket, and you told me Shire has a new product?"

"Since we're going to Charles's anyway, we might as well buy some hair growth drink there."

"This is so funny! I thought I could finally say goodbye to my monthly trips to Donglin."

"I've been controlled by the Ciel family for my entire life!"

"Damn it, wallet, can't you be more sensible and make the money appear on your own?"

…

Wu Xiaoshan is a beauty blogger who deals with various cosmetics and skincare products all year round. She often has closed comedones and acne on her face, which makes her very annoyed.

By the way, when she first entered the industry, people often praised her for having a "face like a peeled egg". Now, even with all the expensive skincare products and a two-hour skincare routine before going to bed every night, it's useless. Her face has become super sensitive under the influence of all the cosmetics.

It has been a month since the last video was filmed. During this month, the acne on her face has recurred and has not healed. Her fans have been urging her to update, but who knew that she couldn't update at all!

When she woke up, there were three big red pimples on her face. They were very painful and Wu Xiaoshan didn't dare to squeeze them.

She went to see a doctor, who just said that she had a reversed day and night cycle and a hormone disorder. He told her to have a regular life and a healthy diet, and also prescribed some expensive medicine.

It's useless!

Feeling depressed, she had to wear a mask and go out to date her friends to relax. She couldn't stay at home all the time.

"Then let's meet at the Shire Tea Shop downstairs from your house!" the little sister said happily, "I was thinking about coming over these days, but unfortunately I never had the time."

Wu Xiaoshan had heard of the name of Shire Tea Shop a long time ago. Coincidentally, it was just downstairs and across the street from where she lived, but she had never tried it.

In order to look good on camera, she has always only drunk black coffee and purified water, and has not drunk any small drinks, and has persisted in this for many years.

So even though the Shire Tea Shop had been on the hot search for many days, she never joined in the fun.

Since her little sister hadn't arrived yet, Wu Xiaoshan decided to sit in the tea shop and wait for her.

It was a weekday morning, so there shouldn't be much business. However, when Wu Xiaoshan entered the store, she discovered there were three long queues inside.

Weird? Is their business so good?

She lifted her hat and took a look, only to find that the handsome guy in the ordering area was really handsome, tall and long-legged, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth. He was really a killer.

Well, it turns out to be a beauty.

Her sister, a cartoonist who likes to look at handsome men and beautiful women, probably came here for this.

Wu Xiaoshan had participated in many events with handsome men and beautiful women, so she had some resistance to beauty and found a seat in a corner.

The chair is made of wood, with smooth and rounded corners. It fits the curve of the body when you lean on it, and it doesn't feel uncomfortable at all.

Wu Xiaoshan unconsciously gave this store a higher rating and took out her phone to check the latest makeup trends. Although she hadn't released a video in a month, she couldn't fall behind in her studies.

"Shanshan!"

Luo Qing spotted the little sister in the corner outside the store. He knocked on the glass to attract her attention before walking into the tea shop.

Wu Xiaoshan glanced at her and was startled. She hurried to the door to meet her. "What skincare products have you been using lately? Your face looks so good!"

Wu Xiaoshan knew that her younger sister didn't like to wear makeup. She would only put on some sunscreen when she went out in the summer. Now she saw that her younger sister didn't have any foundation or whitening cream on her face. Her face was still smooth, white and rosy, and very beautiful. She was so envious that she almost cried.

Once upon a time, her sisters had to work day and night to meet the deadline for manuscript submission, and they drank bottle after bottle of sweet drink to prolong their lives. As soon as they handed in the manuscript and went out, they became bloated, greasy, acne-prone, and bald, suffering from all the five problems.

"Didn't you just receive several manuscripts? They said they're scheduled until the Chinese New Year!" Wu Xiaoshan couldn't believe it.

Luo Qing first pulled her to the end of the line, then explained: "I told you before, their drinks are really effective!"

She has become a loyal fan of Shire Tea Shop. She comes here every month to buy a few boxes of concentrated liquid, including a month's supply of energy drink, sleep drink, and hair growth drink.

Now she has completely bid farewell to baldness, and her hair is thick and smooth. Even if she does not drink the hair growth drink for ten days or half a month, her hair will not fall out as usual.

When I’m on deadline, I drink a lot of energy drinks. I feel more inspired when I’m full of energy. At night, I drink a sleeping drink. I won’t think about playing with my phone for a while before going to sleep. I fall into a sweet dream not long after I lie down on the bed.

Work hard during the day, go to bed early at night, and naturally wake up early the next day.

Life has unknowingly become regular. Even if I eat takeout every meal, it is better than sleeping until the afternoon. Breakfast is other people's dinner, and I eat supper when my body needs to rest. The takeout at night is mostly spicy hot pot and barbecue, and there is not much room for choice.

Luo Qing enjoyed the benefits and recommended Charles many times online and even on his WeChat Moments, but not many of his friends accepted the recommendation.

Just like Wu Xiaoshan, Luo Qing and she are both freelancers. No matter how busy they are, they can always get together and recommend products to each other the most often.

However, Luo Qing had not changed much before, and his words were not convincing. Wu Xiaoshan was a die-hard averse to drinking beverages. Every time Luo Qing spoke, there was no response, so he gradually stopped recommending it.

Last month, the tea shop launched a new product. With the mentality of "I'm here, I might as well buy it", I bought two boxes of Beauty Drink and went back to try it. I didn't feel anything after drinking it. At least Luo Qing felt that compared with the previous drinks, its effect was not very obvious.

A week later, she found that the pimples on her face caused by eating spicy hot pot had disappeared. Two weeks later, she found that the closed comedones on her cheeks had shrunk significantly. Only then did she realize the benefits of the beauty drink.

It will look better indeed!

The bumps are gone, the face is smooth, and I look much cleaner and refreshed!

It's just like the one-click skin smoothing tool in the photo taking software.

Luo Qing is so happy. She doesn’t need to spend a lot of money or follow any dietary restrictions. She can become beautiful just by drinking a little happy drink. Who can not love this!

There is no special publicity for the beauty drink, and the effects vary from person to person. It doesn't seem to be as popular as the hair growth drink when it was first launched.

But Luo Qing has a hunch that in the future, beauty drink will definitely become a best-seller that surpasses hair growth drink!

Since the little sister asked about it, Luo Qing of course praised the beauty drink again, almost unable to contain his excitement.

Wu Xiaoshan hesitated and said, "How is that possible? These drinks are high in sugar and are most likely to cause acne."

The young lady in the queue at the front glanced back at them, then whispered, "Charles' drinks are famously bland. If you want something sweet, you have to add syrup yourself. Look."

She pointed to the production area in front. Like other milk tea shops, Shire's beverage production area was also transparent, so everything could be seen clearly at a glance.

It seems... there are indeed no small ingredients soaked in sugar water, nor is there any thick syrup.

The ingredients for the Vitality Drink and Sleeping Drink are fruit jam, and there are special people responsible for cutting the fruit and then mashing it into a paste.

No sweeteners or syrups are added during the entire process. The fruit is real. The closer you get to the workbench, the more you can smell the fresh fruit aroma, without the sweet water smell of canned fruit.

Wu Xiaoshan suddenly had the idea of ​​"why not give it a try".

"Hello, what can I do for you?"

The shop owner's voice was warm and low, revealing a gentle atmosphere. Wu Xiaoshan felt embarrassed to say no, so she said, "A glass of beauty drink."

Ah, why did you click it?

Wu Xiaoshan felt a little regretful, but Luo Qing had already stepped forward and told her what he wanted: "I want a beauty drink, four boxes of vitality drink, four boxes of sleep drink, and four boxes of beauty drink, and I'll pay for them together with hers."

Wu Xiaoshan was dumbfounded: No, sister, aren’t you buying too much?

While waiting for the drink, I realized that my sister's behavior was normal. It was rare for her to only buy one drink.

The employees in the store moved quickly and soon got their order number. Wu Xiaoshan saw Luo Qing take a big sip, and then let down his guard and slowly took a sip.

Huh? A light herbal aroma, a rich pear aroma, and the drink itself has the sweetness of pear juice.

Her eyes lit up and she took a big sip.

Luo Qing smiled and said, "Isn't it delicious? It's worth my while to travel across half the city to buy it."

Wu Xiaoshan pursed her lips and said, "I thought you admired the handsome employees of this store, so you always came all the way here to buy drinks."

Luo Qing was stunned for a moment, then burst out laughing: "What? Boss Xie and that handsome guy who packs drinks are a couple. They've even got their marriage certificate."

Wu Xiaoshan: "...No wonder their eye contact just now seemed a little shady. I thought I was just seeing too much gay eyes and automatically pairing them up with handsome guys."

Luo Qing raised his eyebrows knowingly.

The two got in the car and headed for their next meeting point. Wu Xiaoshan habitually searched for Shire Tea Shop online and found that the number of fans on the Weiwei platform had exceeded two million.

And the comment section is also very lively, it feels like all of them are active fans.

"Oh my god, I've only been drinking this for over a month, and my face has become so much more hydrated. My roommates are all asking me what kind of facial mask I'm using, hahahahaha."

"What kind of devil is the Ciel family?! All the drinks they make are my favorites!"

"Wow, before the Ciel drink came out, I didn't know Chinese medicine had other flavors besides bitter."

"Sisters! Beauty Drink is not only good for your skin, but it can also help you lose weight! I've been drinking it for over a month, and my body has shrunk significantly."

"Help! History books show that imperial concubines used traditional Chinese medicine to make slimming and whitening pills, enjoying their favor for many years. How did something so good only just become known?"

"Charles' teas are so popular, the number of applicants for Chinese herbal medicine exams has more than tripled in the past two years! What's going on? Are everyone trying to get into the Chinese herbal medicine industry?"

"This is @Central Research Institute. When will Beauty Drink be launched nationwide?"

Academia Sinica:?

The Chinese Research Institute just made a splash but was instantly drowned out, and then was praised and pushed up again.

Academia Sinica: We are talking about it [starry eyes]

Didn’t they just develop a hair growth drink?

But no one cared and kept clamoring to get Meiliyin online as well.

Yu Jianmin, the contact person at the Central Research Institute, had no choice but to call Xie Yunsui. "A lot of people tagged us, and some even sent us letters, asking us to develop the beauty drink first, otherwise there would be trouble."

Xie Yunsui: "...They said the same thing under my account."

Yu Jianmin smiled innocently: "It's not a bad idea to launch it at the same time as the vitality drink and the sleep drink."

In fact, it was the teams in the institute who failed to get the Chinese herbal medicines who were clamoring for them.

Like Shengfa Drink, Huoli Drink and Mianmian Drink both have some herbal genes that they don’t have. Based on the pleasant cooperation with Shengfa Drink, Xie Yunsui sent them the Chinese medicinal seeds or rhizomes of the two drinks this time.

When the Academia Sinica was studying the two Chinese herbal medicines for research, it discovered that the seeds given by Xie Yunsui could feed nutrients back to the soil. This special soil was used to grow ordinary herbs, which not only accelerated their growth but also enhanced their activity.

It was as if the seeds given by Xie Yunsui had an indescribable spirituality.

The institute has recruited a lot of people in the past two years and set up several teams to specifically study the seeds given by Xie Yunsui. There are a total of nine seeds sent this time, and Dr. Song Lengyun's team alone takes up three of them, which is not enough to go around!

Yu Jianmin remembered the original agreement and asked, "Boss Xie, are you free recently? Would you like to come and see our gene bank?"

Xie Yunsui chuckled: "What a coincidence... My wife and I are planning to travel to Zhongjing City soon."

"Haha, that's great."

Yu Jianmin was no longer on guard against him. If Xie Yunsui hadn't been determined to open a tea shop to make a living, he would have really wanted to get him to work at the Academia Sinica.

It doesn’t matter if he doesn’t have academic qualifications. He has provided so many new seeds in a row that he deserves the title of honorary professor.

Get the people here first, and we’ll deal with the rest later.
