Chapter 236 The Small-minded Divine Sect
"Mr. Chen, are you selling this peach blossom powder of yours to others?" The beautiful and graceful geisha in the brothel stared straight at Chen Ge in front of her with a pair of bright eyes full of spring water.
The person on the stage who knows the most is definitely the geisha from the brothel. It's simply because she's skilled.
She always uses these rouge and powder to conceal concealers and set her makeup before going on stage. As soon as she puts it on her face, she immediately feels the difference of the Jade Girl Peach Blossom Powder. The powder is fine and light, does not show pores, is fresh and natural, brightens the skin tone, and is not afraid of sweat. It is truly a top-quality product.
"I've already told you all the secret recipes, so you can make it yourself. Like I said earlier, today's sharing is about love. Talking about money is so vulgar!"
"Other things are fine, you can always buy them if you spend a little more money, but this motherwort has to be picked in May with the flowers and roots together. No matter how much I spend, I can't buy it." The geisha said coquettishly, "I want it so badly now..."
Her eyes were focused and her voice was charming. Chen Ge, who was not very resistant to begin with, became slightly erect and almost made a fool of himself. He quickly said, "This small jar of Jade Maiden Peach Blossom Powder is for you. If you find it useful, you can come to our newly opened beauty salon. We will provide the raw materials and have someone to guide you in making Jade Maiden Peach Blossom Powder. Once you are proficient, you can make it yourself in the future."
The two of them were talking loudly, and many people on and off the stage heard them. They were also thinking about the raw materials, so someone asked, "Does it have to be beast gold charcoal? Does it have to be motherwort in May with flowers and roots to be effective?"
"Not entirely. The materials used by the previous imperial court must have been the best. Beast gold charcoal has a pine-scented aroma, and motherwort, with its flowers and roots, not only whitens the skin but also has skin-care and oil-control properties. Substituting other materials will still work, but the results will be less impressive. Everyone should do what they can based on their own circumstances."
Chen Ge's words conveyed a signal that this Jade Maiden Peach Blossom Powder also has different grades, and the highest grade will not be available until after June of this year at the earliest.
The effect of the application was seen by everyone on and off the stage. It would be a lie to say that I wasn't moved. Dongcheng District is a concentration camp for the rich and powerful. The main theme is arrogance. What is the rich and powerful? I have what others don't have. This is the rich and powerful!
In an instant, everyone's attention was focused on the porcelain bottle containing the Jade Girl Peach Blossom Powder on the table. This was the only stock available.
"I'll give you ten taels of silver for a small porcelain bottle."
"Haha, ten taels of silver? You can actually say that. I'm afraid you don't know the price of beast gold charcoal. I'll give you fifty taels. I'll take whatever you have."
"You want them all? Shopkeeper Wang, you're so arrogant! You're probably buying them for fifty taels of silver and then selling them in your shop for a hundred!"
"Mr. Yang, stop slandering me. You also run a rouge shop, so what qualifications do you have to criticize me?"
"Young Master, please sell it to me!"
“Sell it to me, sell it to me!”
There was a lot of noise in the audience. The fat girl on the stage was the first to get the upper hand, so she took action herself. She picked up the large porcelain vase on the table and put a stack of silver bills on the table. They were all denominations of 100 taels. A rough look showed that they were no less than 3,000 taels.
The Qian family is really rich!
Look, making money is so easy. A large sum of money is right in front of me, but I can't take it. The slogan has been shouted out. Today, there is only love.
Although Ouyang Qingqing is obsessed with money, she can't guarantee that she won't complain.
Chen Ge handed the money on the table to Qian Shiyun, took the Jade Girl Peach Blossom Powder back from her hand, and filled it into small porcelain bottles one by one. He filled another 8 bottles. Including the ones distributed to the six people before, there were a total of 14 bottles.
Chen Pingping struck the gong for silence. Chen Ge said, "Thank you for your cooperation, everyone on stage. These six bottles are for them. As for the remaining eight bottles, with so many people present, I don't know who to give them to."
"Fair competition, the highest bidder wins!"
"Yeah, fair play!"
Chen Ge quickly said, "I definitely won't make money with the Jade Maiden Peach Blossom Powder. It's a blasphemy against love. However, I can't think of any other solution right now. How about letting the highest bidder win? Whoever gets the Jade Maiden Peach Blossom Powder should donate the money to Lord Han, the Three Envoys. I heard he's worried sick about the finances of our Great Song Dynasty."
"Ha ha ha ha!"
"Lord Han is having a hard time. Everyone in the court only knows how to ask him for money. He's almost overwhelmed."
"Then let's get started!" Chen Ge took the first bottle in his hand.
"Fifty taels!"
"Five hundred taels!"
Shopkeeper Wang just called out fifty taels, and the fat girl Qian Shiyun directly increased the amount tenfold. The scene instantly became quiet, and Shopkeeper Yang had to hold back the hundred taels he had not yet said.
"Five hundred taels once, five hundred taels twice, five hundred taels three times."
"It's yours!" Chen Ge handed the small bottle to Qian Shiyun.
"It all ends up being the same. It's just a few bucks, why make it so complicated?" Qian Shiyun muttered, pulling out an even thicker stack of banknotes and handing them to the guards below the stage. "Go and take this to the residence of Lord Han, the Third Envoy."
Chen Ge: This is truly arrogant...
Wang Rong: Zi Zheng is crazy, why don’t you want so much money?
Cai Bian: This is truly the demeanor of a gentleman...
Cai Jing: Does it still count if I confess in person that the dowry is three times thicker?
Geisha: Being rich is great, but don’t I deserve a name?
Chubby-faced maid: "Miss, this is true love! Hey, why don't I have a name...?"
Audience: That’s money, not paper…
Qian Shiyun left contentedly.
