As soon as Song Wanning said this, Cui Xiaoxiao hurriedly waved her hand and looked at Song Wanning and said, "To be honest, Madam, I was very confident in the rouge shop I opened before, but who would have thought it would end up like that. Later, the shop was sold to me by Madam, and I thought the shop's losses were all due to Madam. Later, I had another opportunity to run it again, but I lost everything again. I have completely given up hope now and dare not even think about running the shop. I hope Madam will forgive me. Although I have many ways to make money now, I dare not run it myself anymore. I only hope that if Madam makes money in the future, I can also let me have something to eat."
Seeing this, Song Wanning didn't say much. She just looked at Cai Que beside her and said, "Take this new thing down and try it out to see how it works. If it's really that good, then open a new shop in the capital. This thing will definitely be able to make a living. When the time comes, you can also boost the cloth business in Xifang."
Song Wanning looked at Cui Xiaoxiao again and said slowly, "Excuse me, Miss Cui. If the shop makes money in the future, I will certainly not treat you unfairly. If you think of other ways to make money, you can also tell me, and we can make money together. If your method can make money, I will definitely promote it and will not let you be buried."
After hearing this, Cui Xiaoxiao was finally satisfied. Now she didn't dare to ask for anything else and just went back to the yard.
However, Song Wanning, seeing that she had become quite obedient, even assigned him two helpers.
Zhuque, standing aside, was rather dissatisfied and said, "Madam, have you forgotten how Concubine Cui troubled you in the past? Now that she has done something fake, will you believe her again? Who knows if she is a spy sent by Master Bai to investigate our mansion?"
Cai Que also echoed from the side, "Madam, you really should think this over carefully. This Concubine Cui was the one who caused Madam such a miserable life in the past. Madam, you should treat her more carefully than others and make sure you don't suffer any harm from her again."
Song Wanning knew that the two maids were only thinking about her, so she smiled and said, "I know what you are saying, but there are no eternal enemies in this world. What she is doing now is indeed a good way to make money. In that case, I might as well bear with it. Besides, I have already sent people to keep an eye on her. If I see that she has any second thoughts, I will definitely not give her another chance. Besides, I have two such smart girls like you by my side. If she does anything bad to the Prime Minister's Mansion, you will definitely help me keep an eye on her."
After hearing what Song Wanning said, Caique and Zhuque finally felt relieved, and went downstairs to help Song Wanning figure out whether the soap was useful.
Soon the two maids came back with two sets of dried clothes.
Zhuque handed the freshly washed clothes to Song Wanning with a look of shock, and exclaimed in surprise, "Madam, this soap is really useful. It washed my muddy clothes clean in just a few strokes. In the past, such greasy stains would have taken a lot of effort to clean. And the clothes now even have a faint fragrance. It's really a good thing."
Song Wanning looked at Zhuque and smiled faintly, "I don't know where Cui Xiaoxiao came from. She says all sorts of weird things, but she can make such a good thing. It's really surprising. But since she's the only one who can make something like this, it's okay for us to have a share. There's no need to be stingy with the money."
The two maids have been convinced by her now, so how can they say no?
Seeing this, Song Wanning immediately said, "Now that we know this thing is good, why not switch the poorly-traded grocery store in West Square to this shop specializing in soap? West Square is crowded with people, and most of those who come and go are the heads of households. This is the most suitable place to sell this soap. Assign a few more people to Cui Xiaoxiao. Once the soap is mass-produced, we should open our shop."
Song Wanning had a good idea. The shop had only been open for a few days, but after she found a way to spread the word among the ladies in the capital, the shop quickly became popular.
This kind of novelty had never existed in the capital before. Now someone had made something so useful, and it even had different flavors and colors, which made everyone feel very fresh.
The Mansion of Marquis Zhongping.
Ever since he offended Song Wanning and Yin Yichen in the palace last time, Wen Tingbai was so frightened that he dared not even leave the house. He was afraid that Cui Xiaoxiao would implicate him, and he was terrified every day in the courtyard.
But not long after, his concubine Guan E came back from outside and brought him a new piece of news.
Guan E pulled out a new object from her sleeve and placed it in front of Wen Tingbai, sounding puzzled. "Second Master, look at this! Wasn't this something Aunt Cui made in the yard a while ago? There's a shop in the West Quarter selling it now, and business is booming. I was curious, so I went to ask around, and found out that the owner of this shop is the Prime Minister's Mansion. It turns out that Aunt Cui didn't die after going to the Prime Minister's Mansion, but was instead given a new position. Second Master, you better seize this opportunity! Don't let that little bitch get away with you."
After hearing this, Wen Tingbo was surprised and picked up the cube on the table to study it. He saw that this soap was made by Cui Xiaoxiao.
He was now both helpless and upset. Who could have imagined that Cui Xiaoxiao would go to the Prime Minister's Mansion and actually bring him back to life with her eloquence? But he had a really bad fight with her before, so if he wanted to use her to build a relationship with him now, he was afraid it would be impossible.
Wen Tingbo was now very angry and helpless. He thought of his previous plan with Cui Xiaoxiao and always felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't put his finger on it.
Wen Tingbai thought about it and decided that he couldn't just give up on Cui Xiaoxiao. After all, he and Cui Xiaoxiao had feelings for each other in the past. With that in mind, he sent someone to monitor the soap shop and the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion, waiting for Cui Xiaoxiao to show up so he could report her.
Hard work pays off. Within a few days, Wen Tingbo's men saw Cui Xiaoxiao coming out of the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Wen Tingbai's men hurried back to report, and Wen Tingbai quickly left the mansion to chase Cui Xiaoxiao. He was definitely going to have a good talk with Cui Xiaoxiao now. If Cui Xiaoxiao was willing to listen, she would have to contribute more to the future efforts to win over the Prime Minister's Mansion.
Cui Xiaoxiao came out this day to buy raw materials for soap.
