Although the coldest time has passed, Beijing is still very dry in late winter and early spring. The launch of body lotion has undoubtedly made Huayan once again the number one hot search among beauty lovers.
Because body lotion is much more expensive than lipstick and toner in terms of both R&D and packaging costs, Shen Anning was not as generous as before this time to give it to all her mother, aunt and other colleagues. However, she still had to do some publicity. She asked her mother and aunt to release the news and flyers in advance. Due to production reasons, all Huayan's directly-operated stores only have one hundred bottles of body lotion per day, and the first ten people who buy in the store will receive a box of lipstick for free.
Shen Yipei looked at her colleagues sitting in her office, feeling helpless. "Friends, I'm not hiding this from you. I just got the new product yesterday. Their research cycle took a bit longer this time, and it must have cost a lot of time and money, so it's normal to keep it secret, right?
And what I'm bringing you is the latest news. Others still don't know about this new product. Everyone, remember, it goes on sale tomorrow morning. Each store is limited to 100 pieces, and the first ten to buy will receive a lipstick. I suggest that if you plan to use it long-term, you should stock up on a few bottles. Each bottle weighs one pound, which should last about a month, and it's not expensive, only two yuan and seventy cents a bottle."
As soon as Shen Yipei finished speaking, Zhong Hui stood up. "Oh wow, the body lotion I've been waiting for is finally here. Hey, Peipei, is it still rose scented?"
"It should be. The sample I got yesterday was rose-scented, but I'm not sure if there are other flavors. Anyway, there's a Huayan store near your house. You can just stop by and buy a few more bottles before work tomorrow morning."
Zhong Hui nodded and agreed. She wanted to be the first customer to come in tomorrow!
Shen Yipei originally thought that her colleagues would be happy after she shared this news, but she forgot that there are always people who just can't get enough of taking advantage.
Before, Shen Anning gave her thirty free samples of lipstick and toner. Her good friend definitely didn't have thirty, so she gave some to colleagues who were not very familiar with her but were still very polite. This time, she also called those colleagues who said Huayan was useful to the office.
Just as she was about to say that it was almost time to go to work and let everyone go back to their posts, Shen Yipei heard someone talking, "Doctor Shen, isn't this Huayan factory run by your niece? Although the lipstick and toner are both very good, we haven't used this body lotion and don't know if it works well. Why don't you talk to your niece and arrange a trial for us? If it works well, we can buy it all. She will still be the one making the money then, don't you think?"
Shen Yipei really didn't expect that someone would say such a thing. After hearing it, she was stunned for a moment, and looked at her good friend Zhong Hui. They both read two words in each other's eyes - weird!
Fortunately, no one agreed, or even if someone wanted to, they refrained from agreeing. Shen Yipei was not too angry. If these colleagues who were not so familiar with her said such things, she would probably not be able to control her temper - she would give them two hits each!
Taking a deep breath, Shen Yipei smiled and looked at the person who had just spoken, "Doctor Liu, didn't I just say that this body lotion is expensive? Besides, it took a group of students so long to research it. There's not a single spot available for this trial outside. It's just over two yuan, which is not very expensive for us. You can buy a bottle and try it out. If it doesn't work for you, come to me and I'll refund you the money."
Although she said it politely, Shen Yipei was actually already furious. At that time, she had never thought of giving the trial to Liu Qin. If she hadn't heard her talking to another doctor, and hadn't followed her stubbornly for the sake of her family's face, Shen Yipei felt that she was really too tolerant!
Liu Qin was unhappy when she heard Shen Yipei say this, but she was too embarrassed to say anything. Just now, she clearly saw a few people who wanted to try a bottle for free like her, but she was the first to speak out, and these people shrank back, bullying the weak and fearing the strong. She remembered it. No matter how unhappy she was, she didn't dare to say anything for the sake of Shen Yipei's father and husband. She made a smooth situation, "Hey, Doctor Shen is right. How can Hua Yan's products not be effective? I definitely trust them. I will buy a bottle to try it out tomorrow morning."
"Haha, it's time to go to work. I have to go back to the clinic first!"
Doctor Liu, whose original name was Liu Zhaodi and now is Liu Qin, became more and more angry as she thought about it on the way back to the clinic. Ever since she married the old man in her family, she has rarely suffered such injustice as today!
When they arrived at the outpatient clinic's collective office, the other doctors saw that Liu Qin looked unwell, but they didn't say anything. They took their stethoscopes and went to their respective clinics.
Liu Qin was the only one left in the office with more than a dozen desks. She turned around, locked the door, and made a phone call.
"Hello, hello, this is General Xu's house. May I ask who you are?"
"Aunt, it's me. Is Lao Xu home? Let him answer the phone."
Hearing Liu Qin's bad tone, Liu Chunhua didn't dare to ask anything. Although she was Liu Qin's biological aunt and now worked as a nanny in the Xu family because of her relationship, her niece was very cruel. "Ah, Xiaoqin, the general is here. I'll go get him."
General Xu is already in his fifties and almost sixty this year. He suffered a lot of injuries during the war, so he retired early. He had two children with his first wife from the countryside, and they are now married. He married his second wife later. Ten years ago, he was in poor health and went to the hospital for recuperation, where he met Liu Zhaodi, who was a nurse at the time.
