Chapter 46 Rouge Shop Recruitment
Xiang Wenyuan was choked by Qiao Youyou for a long time before he uttered a cruel word -
"Okay, you wait!"
After saying that, he turned around angrily and ignored them again.
Qiao Youyou won the verbal battle against Xiang Wenyuan and felt much better.
The four of them lined up and soon arrived at the counter selling iced plum cheese.
Qiao Youyou couldn't wait any longer and stood on tiptoe to see what the ice plum cheese looked like.
According to the rules of Yuxiang Pavilion, only one bowl of ice plum yogurt is available to each person in the queue, and it must be eaten in the hall. No one is allowed to take it away.
Xiang Wenyuan paid the money readily.
"Sir, please enjoy your iced plum cheese in the hall."
The waiter from Yuxiang Pavilion attentively brought a small bowl, less than the size of a palm, and handed it to Xiang Wenyuan.
Xiang Wenyuan was about to take it when his hand suddenly trembled.
The bowl fell directly to the ground, and the white sticky stuff spilled all over the floor!
"What's wrong with you, man?" Xiang Wenyuan asked first.
The waiter, with the attitude of "the guest is the Jade Emperor", quickly bowed and apologized:
"Excuse me, sir. I will make you another bowl right away!"
Xiang Wenyuan glanced behind him complacently.
Zhu Lan and others didn't expect that Xiang Wenyuan would use such a despicable method.
"You—asshole!"
Qiao Youyou was so angry that she wanted to take action, but was stopped by the people at the door of Yuxiang Pavilion, who looked like they were afraid that they would cause trouble.
In just a short while, Xiang Wenyuan had already taken away the last bowl of iced plum cheese.
Humming a little tune, he entered the private room of Yuxiang Pavilion.
"Dear guests, our ice plum cheese is sold out today.
If you want to try it, come early tomorrow!"
After the waiter finished speaking, he hung a wooden sign with the words "Sold Out" on the table.
Turn around and do something else.
…
Zhu Lan and the other three returned to Longchang Academy, all of them were very angry.
Along the way, Qiao Youyou greeted all of Xiang Wenyuan's eighteen generations of ancestors.
When I returned to the door of the study, I saw Liang Zhou and a few other boys gathered together.
"They're back!" Zhou Da saw Zhu Lan and the other three and waved hurriedly.
Only then did Zhu Lan and his companions know that the academy was going to hold a sports meet.
The boys plan to sign up for Cuju and ask Zhu Lan and the others if they want to join.
"I'm not going." Qiao Youyou was still angry and had no interest in anything else.
I told everyone again what happened in Yuxiang Pavilion.
"I heard that Xiang Wenyuan signed up for the hundred-rope jump in order to compete with Zhu Qingyan?" Liang Zhou said.
Qiao Youyou's eyes flashed with ferocity instantly:
“Where can I sign up?”
Liang Zhou showed the way.
Qiao Youyou was full of murderous intent, and waved his hand——
"Let's go get him!"
With her around, Xiang Wenyuan will definitely look good in the competition!
The most important thing is that in order to encourage everyone to actively participate, the academy actually cooperated with Yuxiang Pavilion.
Each member of the winning team will receive two tickets to Yuxiang Pavilion for skip-the-line admission!
Qiao Youyou and the others must win.
When the time comes, I must show off in front of Xiang Wenyuan and make him angry to death!
It takes six people to sign up for the rope skipping, and because it involves swinging a large rope, it is best to have two boys with greater strength.
When Xiao Wan counted to three, Zhao Sicheng obediently defected from the Cuju team.
Under the contemptuous gazes of his brothers, he switched sides to Tiao Baisuo.
There is still one boy missing, but the Cuju team cannot have any fewer people.
Several people simply extended their claws towards Chang Yunxiao.
Chang Yunxiao was so annoyed that he had no choice but to agree.
Six people signed up together, and the next step was to find time to practice and wait for the day of the competition.
…
On the day of the agreed recruitment interview at the Rouge Shop, Qin Yuwei came to the shop.
Zhang Sigu brought in three women, all of whom knew how to make rouge and powder, and came to sign up.
The three of them brought their finished products to Qin Yuwei's house. Qin Yuwei looked at them one by one and felt that they were all good.
However, according to the calculations of financial analyst Qiao Youyou, with the current size of the shop, it can only employ one person at most.
So Qin Yuwei asked them to each introduce the advantages of their own rouge and powder.
The first woman who came up for introduction had a stout build and her fingers were covered with calluses. Her family must have been mainly engaged in farming.
"What's there to introduce?" She pointed at the bottles and jars in front of her, "These are the skills my mother taught me before she died. Here, the makeup powder, lip balm, and eyebrow paint you want."
After saying that, he picked his nose with his hand.
Qin Yuwei shook her head and let her leave.
"Tsk, you don't know what's good!" The woman walked away cursing.
The second woman was plain-looking and called herself Second Sister Lin. She pointed at her own work and spoke eloquently:
“This is Jade Face Powder, which is made from rice powder. It can not only whiten the skin tone, but also beautify the skin.
This is the smoke ink used for drawing eyebrows, named "Yuanshandai".
It is a slanting red, which looks like a paste at first glance, but is actually as fine as powder. Use your fingers to apply it to the end of the eye, and it will be like the setting sun. "
Qin Yuwei was satisfied after hearing this and asked the last person.
When Aunt Zhao heard Second Sister Lin's introduction just now, there was a hint of pride in her eyes.
When asked by Qin Yuwei, she raised her head and said with some arrogance:
"No matter how good the rouge and powder are, it's better to try them on your face, don't you think?"
She suggested that Qin Yuwei try Lin Erjie's Jade Face Powder first.
Sister Lin nodded: "Indeed, you can tell whether a cosmetic is good or not by trying it."
She applied some of her jade powder on the back of Qin Yuwei's hand and spread it evenly with her slender fingers.
Qin Yuwei only felt that this was more similar to modern loose powder. After all, it was a powdery substance and was a bit dry when applied on the skin. It was completely incomparable with modern foundation.
Then try Aunt Zhao's on the back of your other hand.
Aunt Zhao seemed to be confident of success. She stretched out her tone while applying the paint:
"The most important thing about makeup powder is its fineness. If it's not fine and smooth enough, what's the difference between it and applying flour on your face?"
Qin Yuwei felt the touch on the back of her hand and raised her eyebrows slightly.
Aunt Zhao's makeup powder is indeed finer than Sister Lin's, and it feels smooth when applied.
The smoothness is comparable to that of a certain Fu!
"Girl, this is Auntie San's secret recipe. Come, let me give it a try."
Aunt Zhao wanted to show off, so she also took Lin Erjie's hand and started to apply the makeup.
"This..." Second Sister Lin was stunned. The touch was indeed more delicate and silky than the powder she made.
A look of dejection appeared on his face.
"Okay, you make the decision."
Aunt Zhao folded her arms and looked at Qin Yuwei.
The difference in workmanship between the two was immediately apparent, and the outcome was no surprise.
Qin Yuwei nodded, wiped the powder off the back of her hands, and then walked towards Aunt Zhao.
Aunt Zhao's expression showed she was confident of victory.
"Aunt San, thank you for your trouble. But your makeup powder is not in line with the business philosophy of our shop, so please go back."
Qin Yuwei then turned to Lin Erjie and asked her to go to the shopkeeper to register and that she would be a formal employee of the shop from now on.
"My makeup powder doesn't work, why should hers work!?"
Aunt Zhao's face changed and she shouted loudly, demanding an explanation from Qin Yuwei.
