Chapter 6 Blackhearted Merchant
Looking at the small porcelain bottles, Chen Shou fell into deep thought again.
Spice essential oils are made, but how to sell them, especially how to promote them.
The most important thing is to make a name for yourself, otherwise it will be worthless in this small courtyard.
There was no TV network in this era. Even if there was oneself, he had no money to advertise. He was unable to move with his gold medal and could not help but sigh.
Unfortunately, in this era, there are no stars and no spokespersons
Hey, star?
Chen Shou suddenly thought that if the diners in the restaurant, Miss Xue from Zuiyue Tower would have to pay a thousand taels of silver when they met. The ones they made were either rich or noble, or the best candidate.
These people are contemporary female celebrities.
Zuiyue Tower or something, isn't it just a brothel? Chen Shou was still a little nervous when he thought about it.
"Chen Fu, go wash your face and go to the same place with me."
"Go to eat roast chicken?" Chen Fu asked excitedly.
"Drink, you know the chicken, hurry up and wash your face."
Chen Fu went to wash his face, and Chen Shou looked up and down. This kid was dirty all over. I don’t know how long it took to take a shower, so he was still going to negotiate business. I’m afraid he couldn’t even enter the gate of Zuiyue Tower.
Chen Shou glanced at the porcelain bottle in his arms and the bulging purse, which was full of silver.
"Forget it, I can't get this courage, so what's the point of making money?"
Chen Shou gritted his teeth and took his nephew to the tailoring room first, bought two sets of forging clothes, and spent ten taels of silver.
Chen Fu's eyes were red with heartache. When he went out, he held his clothes in his hands and walked carefully.
Chen Shou also asked for a fitted robe, with a brocade belt on his waist and a hairpin tied with a bun. He leaned on his clothes and horses leaned on his saddle. Chen Shou looked more and more handsome when wearing this outfit.
Chen Shou kicked him, "What a weird thing to do, let me walk well."
The two of them came to the perfume shop again, which was later known as the bathhouse, and paid a few cents to clean it.
In addition to a large pool, there are also bath beans in this perfume business.
Pinch your feet, rub your back, and beat your legs. The love of bathing in the Han people began as early as the Spring and Autumn Period, and there are many records in the Book of Songs.
Xu Shen of the Eastern Han Dynasty also recorded in "Shuowen Jiezi": "Bathing is to sprinkle the body; washing is to sprinkle the feet; bathing is to sprinkle the hands." During the Han Dynasty, the government set some holidays for bathing, "Washing every five days is also called resting the bath." That is, after five days, everyone had to go back to take a bath. In the Tang Dynasty, it was changed to ten days, called "rest the day".
They were not the most lively time when they came. There were not many people in the pool. Chen Shou took Chen Fu to soak it, and he was refreshed and comfortable all over.
After changing into new clothes, Chen Fu went to fold his old clothes, but Chen Shou threw them away, "This thing is very good and I will never have to wear it again."
Chen Fu looked at his new outfit, excited and distressed, and grinned: "Second Uncle, this is too expensive. In our village, it won't cost so much money to marry a wife."
"You carry the small porcelain bottle for me and stand behind me for a while. Don't look at my eyes, let alone talk nonsense. Do you understand?"
"knew."
Chen Shou nodded with satisfaction. At this time, a carriage stopped. The groom who was driving the carriage asked with a smile: "Two masters, you are not the identity of walking. You can tell me wherever you go. The villain will take you there. Just give me some hard work."
It’s different in big cities, you can take a taxi. Chen Shou smiled and said, “Okay, how much does it cost to go to Zuiyue Tower?”
"It turns out that the young master is going to Zuiyue Tower to have fun. The road is not far. Just give it to Shiwen."
Ten folks are really not expensive, Chen Shou nodded, and his uncle and nephew got on the carriage and came to a quiet alley. Although it was not time to light the light, the strong fragrance of powder and the sound of silk and bamboo could still float out from the courtyards of each room.
Along the way, I learned a little about the Zuiyue Tower. It was opened by a madam named Su Le. It was really a cash-selling nest.
In Liangzhou City, many high-ranking officials and nobles are spending money here.
But looking at the appearance, Zuiyue Tower is more like a college with pink and white walls, blue bricks and green tiles. Anyone said it is an elegant place.
As soon as the two walked into the door, they had turtle men wearing pigskin boots and green scarfs to come to welcome guests and shout.
"Two young masters, please come in."
Although Chen Shou had never been to such a place, he was not nervous. He threw out the last piece of silver, "Don't be clamoring, call your madam."
The Turtle Master, who received the reward, smiled a little, nodded and said, "Please please, please, the young man, I'll call you now."
It was not yet night, and there were not many guests in Zuiyue Tower. Chen Shou found a place to sit down in the yard. Chen Fu behind him was indeed obedient, lowering his head to look at his toes, without saying a word.
Chen Shou felt relieved. The old madam came and went to see him off. She was like a sperm. If she showed her timidity, she would definitely be ridiculed and looked down upon. Then her business would be difficult to do.
"Hey, two young men, I haven't come one day and miss me so much." A woman wearing a pink gauze held a fragrant veil and waved her words and waved them all over again.
As soon as she saw Chen Shou, her eyes lit up, "What a handsome little man, I don't know which girl I made an appointment with, so lucky."
As for Chen Fu, she was automatically regarded as a servant and book boy.
Chen Fu lowered his head and disagreed, "My second uncle and I are here for the first time."
However, Chen Shou did not let him speak. He was afraid that he would ruin his second uncle's major affairs, so he kept silent.
Chen Shou smiled and avoided the woman's arm, "Forget it, girl, please ask my mother to find us a Yaxuan, let's have a drink."
The woman was a little surprised and then smiled and said, "Young Master is not a big man, but she has a tricky taste. She also knows our benefits? But when I look at you, I feel familiar. I think I have a lot of fate. Since that's the case, please come with me."
After saying that, his waist twisted slightly, and he smiled charmingly to guide the way.
Chen Shou swallowed and turned around to remind Chen Fu to make tea here, then took a small porcelain bottle and put it in his arms.
Su's mother was already in her thirties and no longer accompanied her guests, but this young boy is so handsome today that she made an exception and agreed to tease her.
As soon as she sat down, Su's mother approached with a smile and was pushed away by Chen Shou, "Mom Su, you, Zuiyue Tower, must you make money every day?"
Mama Su's expression moved, and she became secretly alert in her heart. She raised her eyes and said with a smile: "What does your son mean?"
"I heard that in Liangzhou, the Fengyue Land is the best place to buy and sell our Zuiyue Tower. I have a way to make money faster, but I don't know if Mama Su is willing to make money."
"The gold and silver are annoying, but no one can do without it. However, I would rather starve to death than touch it."
"Don't worry, Mama Su, it's absolutely safe and clean."
Mama Su's expression moved, "The wise man will not say secret words. Since the young master has said this, why not be honest and say it directly."
Chen Shou took out a small bottle from his arms, and after opening it, the fragrance was strong.
Mama Su looked at the light yellow transparent spice essential oil, her eyes were full of radiance and asked, "What is this?"
"When taking a shower, just one drop can make the girls in Zuiyue Tower have a strong fragrance all over. How about it, is Su Mama interested?"
"How much does the young master offer?"
"Hehe, I'm not going to sell it to you, but I want you to be my Liangzhou City agent, purchase goods from me, and sell them to share them with us."
Mama Su's eyes rolled and said, "Young Master, are you a little greedy? Since you are doing business, you are too cruel to exploit us who are frivolous."
She said as she was about to cry, her charming look was natural, which made Chen Shou say she couldn't bear it.
Damn, Fox Meizi, is indeed a professional.
"Mom Su, what I said is that you get 70%."
"One word is certain!"
Mama Su couldn't wait to say.
Chen Shou looked at her happy look and smiled in his heart: These ten bottles are all advertising fees. I will first develop dependence for you. When you make me famous, you can't live without my essential oil. Then you will raise the price. Not to mention Panax notoginseng, you will have to buy it. Then you will say it is the price, and even your home business will be charged for you.
