"To be honest, these are all good things sent from the Western Regions. They passed through three routes and sixteen roads, and a total of forty-eight counties. The journey was not easy!"

"The whole process will take more than three months. If it is sold in the capital, each small box will cost seventy or eighty taels of silver."

When everyone heard this, their eyes widened instantly, some of them unable to believe the price.

But then they all felt relieved.

They knew very well whether the quality of rouge and powder was good or bad, after all, they had tried them all.

All they want is a suitable price.

The salaries of unfavored concubines in the palace were certainly not that high, so they naturally wanted to get good things at a bargain price.

Qian Ruoyu threw out a depth bomb at the beginning just to whet everyone's appetite.

The three concubines who had originally bought Qian Ruoyu's rouge and powder at a low price also began to cooperate at this time.

"Yes, yes. Princess Ye is not a simple person herself. If she didn't have great abilities or acquaintances in the Western Regions, where could she buy these rouge and powder?"

"It is said," said the second concubine, "that rouge and powder are sold for more than fifty taels of silver in the Western Regions, not to mention how dangerous the transportation process was!"

The third concubine continued, "What Princess Ye has done is really not easy. Sisters, you must cherish this opportunity and see how good a price Princess Ye will give us."

Qian Ruoyu spoke only after seeing that everyone was so cooperative.

"Oh, the sisters have said so, and we will continue to cooperate with each other, right?"

Everyone nodded.

"In that case, I won't charge you too high a price. Each box of the stuff here will only cost you fifty taels of silver. If you are willing, you can take it away. If not, I will have to let you bear the grievance a little bit..."

When one of the concubines saw Qian Ruoyu say this, she immediately slammed the table and said.

"Okay, no problem!"

"I want all seven boxes. Please wait for a moment. Sisters, please wait for a moment. I will go back to my courtyard and bring the silver. Please wait for a moment..."

After saying this, the concubine turned around and started to get the silver.

When the other concubines saw this, they naturally began to rush forward, and first said goodbye to Qian Ruoyu, and then left Concubine Rong's bedroom.

At this time, Qian Ruoyu looked at Yan'er beside her.

Qian Ruoyu gave her a casual look, and Yan'er came to Qian Ruoyu's ear and whispered.

"Don't worry, Madam. I have brought out all the things. We can only bring so many things, and now we have sold them all..."

Qian Ruoyu didn't expect that she could sell everything she brought this time so smoothly.

Qian Ruoyu was even happier in her heart, wanting to know how much money she could earn this time.

Not long after this, all the concubines returned to Concubine Rong's bedroom.

One of the concubines even asked five palace maids to come over with plates.

The plates in the hands of these five palace maids were almost entirely filled with silver.

After all, she bought a lot of rouge and powder, so she brought over a hundred taels of silver at once.

Not long after, the entire table was filled with various kinds of silver, and there were even a dozen gold ingots.

Seeing all this silver made Qian Ruoyu a little dazzled.

But Qian Ruoyu restrained herself and spoke to the concubines in front of her.

"Thank you for your care, sisters. You can take these things back. If there are good goods next time, do I need to notify you sisters?"

As soon as Qian Ruoyu finished speaking, they began to speak one after another.

"That's natural, that's natural!"

"Alas, I only brought two hundred taels of silver this time. My small courtyard can't hold much silver. If you come next time, I will definitely prepare more silver. You should eat less and save more money to buy your rouge and powder."

Almost everyone has this attitude.

This made Qian Ruoyu feel more at ease. It seemed that she could easily open up sales channels in the palace, but this was just one of the sales channels.

After all, there are so many people in the inner court of the imperial palace. Even if these concubines are wanted, there are still other concubines. In addition, there are also high-ranking officials and nobles living near the street near the palace.

Qian Ruoyu didn't need to worry about not being able to sell the rouge and powder she bought.

Afterwards, Qian Ruoyu said goodbye to the concubines who left happily one by one, and only Qian Ruoyu and Concubine Rong were left in the bedroom.

Qian Ruoyu realized that Concubine Rong was not just a simple concubine, but also her good sister.

If she wasn't her good sister, how could Concubine Rong be so willing to help her? This made Qian Ruoyu's sales this time very smooth.

Before Qian Ruoyu could open her mouth to thank her, Rong Fei had already said.

"Alright, alright, don't say any more polite words. There is no point in saying them. Don't worry, I won't take a penny from you. You can take all the money as you like."

"But next time if you have any of these good things, you must bring them to my bedroom."

Qian Ruoyu nodded quickly.

"Hehe, dear sister, you helped me so much this time, how could I not come to you next time? No matter what, I will only come to you first in the future, even if you are the Queen Mother, I don't care!"

But just after Qian Ruoyu said this, Concubine Rong panicked.

Her expression changed slightly and she quickly spoke to Qian Ruoyu.

"Sister, don't say that!"

"The Queen Mother is a phoenix body, and she is the mother of the country. If people hear gossip about her, it will be bad. It is a serious crime!"

Qian Ruoyu knew that only Concubine Rong would be so kind as to remind her. If it were anyone else, they would have probably said what they wanted to say by now.

Such words in the palace might be overheard by some palace maid or eunuch, and would naturally be spread out. Moreover, it was indeed a heinous crime in that era, but Qian Ruoyu didn't care.

After all, there were only Qian Ruoyu and Rong Fei in this bedroom. Even Yan'er was moving silver outside and didn't pay any attention to the situation inside.

Qian Ruoyu said without hesitation.

"Good sister, you are my real good sister. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't say a word if it was someone else."

"Don't worry. From now on, I will only recognize you as my good sister in this inner courtyard of the imperial palace. If you need my help with anything, just let me know. As long as I, Qian Ruoyu, can do it, I will definitely help you!"
