Xie Yunjiao's several shops have opened, one is Qinyuanfang, one is Lanxinfang, one is a bamboo weaving shop, and the other is Jixiang Cloth Shop.
It didn't attract much attention when it opened. Even though there was a big sign outside the door saying "Grand Opening Sale", no one noticed.
There's no way around it. There are so many shops here that you can't even count the rouge and powder shops on one hand.
Xie Yunjiao's Qinyuanfang shop was small and not very famous, so naturally no one noticed it.
But Xie Yunjiao was not panicked. She knew one thing very well: musk is naturally fragrant.
However, it takes some tricks to make people discover this "fragrance".
She set up a makeup cabinet at the entrance of Qinyuanfang and shouted, "Free makeup. If you are not satisfied, we will modify it until you are satisfied."
Free things are always so attractive, and once she shouted, she attracted a lot of people.
But they are just ordinary women who are greedy for small profits and have no purchasing power.
But Xie Yunjiao didn't mind, because she was shouting like this not to get these people to buy but to use them as a free publicity channel.
After a while, under the gaze of everyone, Xie Yunjiao used her skillful hands to transform the face of a woman with pockmarks all over her face. She became as pretty as a lotus, delicate and elegant.
Not to mention others, even the woman herself forgot to close her mouth as she stood in front of the mirror so clearly that she could see her pores.
"Why have I never seen such a bronze mirror? Are you playing some magic trick to fool me?" The woman said, touching her face carefully.
The touch feels so real, it doesn't seem fake.
"I didn't take your money and provided you with the service for free, so how could I say I was cheating you?" Xie Yunjiao paused and said, "If you don't trust my mirror, you can look in the bronze mirror next to you, or ask the person next to you."
The woman actually took the photo and asked her companions. Only after everyone said it was true did she believe it.
Xie Yunjiao helped several women change their appearances one after another. This news spread throughout the capital and attracted a lot of onlookers.
Naturally, it also attracted the interest of some high-ranking officials' daughters.
"What are you selling here? They don't look like rouge and they don't have powder. I don't know who made your store sound so magical. I think it's a scam." A young girl in light blue and fancy dress walked in and started pointing at Xie Yunjiao's products.
The salesmen Xie Yunjiao had just hired were timid and didn't dare to say a word in rebuttal when someone said that.
Xie Yunjiao shook her head. She also knew that not everyone was Shao Yan.
It is difficult to train a new Shao Yan.
But these people can be used as is, and if they are trained slowly, they won't be too bad.
Just as Xie Yunjiao was thinking, a little girl suddenly stepped forward and began to introduce things to the guests. Xie Yunjiao nodded with satisfaction.
However, the girl was still a little timid and spoke in a low voice, so the guests couldn't hear her clearly. After hearing a few words, she became impatient.
Xie Yunjiao personally went out to explain to the customer, but the customer seemed to look down on this small shop. Before Xie Yunjiao finished her introduction, an expression of impatience appeared on her face.
Xie Yunjiao knew she couldn't continue the introduction, so she said, "I think the young lady doesn't like the things we have here?"
The little girl in light blue clothes snorted coldly, glanced at Xie Yunjiao, and said nothing.
Isn't Xie Yunjiao's question nonsense? With her status, how could she possibly be interested in things from a small shop like Xie Yunjiao's?
"If I had known this would happen, I wouldn't have come."
I thought they had some high-quality rouge and powder, but it turned out to be some things I had never heard of, a mess, a waste of expression.
"If you're willing, I can help you change your makeup and redesign your image to ensure you stand out at the banquet later." Xie Yunjiao said.
The little girl was stunned for a moment, and looked at Xie Yunjiao in surprise, wondering how she knew that she was going to attend the banquet?
Could it be that you have already found out about it?
If that was the case, then this place was a scam. She couldn't fall for it.
"Miss, please don't get me wrong. I guessed it based on the way you're dressed." Xie Yunjiao paused and continued, "But look outside. Although the material of your clothes looks good, the style is very ordinary, almost the same as what people wear outside. If you only look at your back, only someone who is very familiar with you can recognize you in a crowd.
This dress is already a failure, and your makeup and accessories are also not eye-catching. Even if you appear at the party, you won't make much of a splash, and no one will even notice you.
The little girl snorted unhappily. What Xie Yunjiao said was right. This was usually the case when she attended banquets.
Because her appearance was not particularly outstanding and her father's official position was not very high, she was always looked down upon by the daughters of wealthy families who attended the banquet.
She had heard about such a rouge and powder shop, so she came here early in the morning, but the result made her a little disappointed.
"If you believe in me, please give me some time. It doesn't need to be long, just half an hour. I can make a great change in your image and temperament. If not, I am willing to pay you fifty taels of silver." Xie Yunjiao said.
Fifty taels? My god, that's a lot of money.
Her monthly salary is only a few taels of silver!
Even if Xie Yunjiao really made her look ugly, she would just stay at home. She was too ordinary anyway, and even if she didn't attend the banquet, no one would notice her absence.
"The boss wants to pay fifty taels of silver to someone all at once. Isn't that too much?" Xie Yunjiao's people whispered.
"That's right. If this store can't continue, we'll have to find new jobs."
It's so hard to find a job that doesn't require any hard labor and pays a good monthly salary. No one wants to lose it so soon.
"Boss, do you need help?" someone asked with courage.
"Yes, go to Jixiang Cloth Shop and get me a piece of clothing, and go to Lanxinfang and get me a set of jewelry." After Xie Yunjiao gave the instructions, she asked the other two to help her put on makeup for the little girl.
The girl was so focused on getting the fifty taels of silver from Xie Yunjiao that she didn't care and let Xie Yunjiao mess around with her face.
She didn't know how much time had passed, but when she was almost drowsy, Xie Yunjiao asked someone to bring her some clothes to change.
She looked at the clothes in Xie Yunjiao's hands and was stunned for a moment: "Oh my God, where did you get this dress? Why is it so beautiful? I have never seen such a style. You have to tell me where you bought it, and I will buy a few pieces later."
The little girl thought happily in her heart that she would use the fifty taels that Xie Yunjiao gave her to buy it.
