Counting the days, I haven't seen Duan Chengde for a while.
Last time when Duan Chengde was about to hand over the escort agency to Zhou Dalang, Fang Qingshi remembered that this man was about to go through a love crisis, and didn't know what was going on now.
Although I am a reborn person, there are some causes and effects that it is better not to get involved in. After all, Duan Chengde is not disabled in this life. If they really love each other, they will grow old together. If they can't, they will part ways. I feel that no matter what the outcome is, it will be good for Duan Chengde.
Not a bad thing.
Perhaps because she knew what Duan Chengde was going through, when she saw Duan Chengde who had lost a lot of weight, she couldn't help but exclaim in her heart, this is still an infatuated person.
"The boss." Li Cuihua walked at the front carrying a heavy basket with a smile on her face: "They hunted some game in the mountains, and our sisters prepared it and sent it over. We also opened our eyes to see it.
Big drama.”
Fang Qingshi smiled: "There are stools at the back. Come and take a look."
Feng Baoniang followed Li Cuihua: "I steamed a pot of meat buns. They taste pretty good. I sent them to the back to watch the show."
Zhang Mandun and Lu Jiu held their children in their arms, waiting to watch the show with joy.
When these people went out to watch the theater, Zhou Ling and Wang Ying were looking at the shop in the front, while Fang Jing'an, brother and sister, went to the back to eat. They had been so busy since the morning that they didn't even have time to take a bite. They couldn't see the food or drink, but they didn't realize how delicious it was.
The food was placed on the table. The three brothers and sisters didn't want to talk, and they all buried their heads in eating.
When they were full, Fang Qingshi took out the aconite green salt powder he had prepared, and all three of them rinsed their mouths before going to the front.
"You little girl, what's wrong? You gave me money and you still don't sell it?"
Wang Ying said with a smile: "Madam, it's not that I won't sell it, but the owner hasn't set a price yet. I'll go ask the owner right now."
Fang Qingshi raised her head and looked at the middle-aged woman who was speaking. She was dressed in a red dress that was really eye-catching. The square neckline exposed a large area of skin. She had a hairpin on her head and a particularly large red silk flower on her temple. She was dressed like this.
Needless to say, everyone knows that he is from the building. Depending on his age, he is probably the person in charge inside.
There are not many buildings in Luwu County. In addition to the official prostitute house, there are two buildings. One is called Chunxiang Building, and the other one has no name. The one with no name is Goulan Courtyard. There are all old and lustful people who spend their whole lives in the romantic field.
When he got older, his benefactors didn't want to come to visit him, so he went to Goulan Courtyard to make a living.
In comparison, Chunhua Building is much better than Goulan Courtyard, so the clothes are much more decent.
"You have really good taste. Among the spices in our house, this one is the best." Fang Qingshi walked over with a smile: "If you want, thirty taels of silver a box."
The middle-aged woman turned her head, and Fang Qingshi resisted laughing. I don't know what she was thinking. Her round face was smeared with blush like a monkey's butt. How dare she show off to the public?
"Thirty taels? Why don't you grab it?" The middle-aged woman shook her plump waist and took two steps: "Little girl, you must be a kind person. If you don't protect Sister Qi Hong, I will be happy. You will make a lot of money here."
Fang Qingshi followed with a smile: "There are two kinds of fragrant pills. One is used in the incense burner, and the other is placed in the Shenque point. It is a good thing for regulating internal temperature and regulating qi. Wearing it for a long time will make the body fragrant and smell good."
It's not strong or enchanting, it has a light orchid fragrance. It's cool and refreshing at first glance, and there's a sweetness of stamens when you taste it carefully. I opened a shop to sell from a stall, and I must pay a penny for the goods, so that the goods are genuine.
of."
The middle-aged woman turned back and looked at Fang Qingshi: "So magical?"
"How about inviting you to the elegant room to taste the incense?" Fang Qingshi asked.
This aroused the interest of the middle-aged woman, and she happily agreed. She followed Fang Qingshi to the small incense room at the back. The place was very elegantly arranged. After sitting down, Fang Qingshi brought the incense burner and took out an incense burner from the box.
He put a fragrant pill in the stove and lit it, then took out a fragrant pill he was wearing with him, opened the wax seal and handed it to her: "You can try it."
"How to try?" The middle-aged woman held the fragrant pills and looked at Fang Qingshi with questioning eyes.
Fang Qingshi asked her to put the fragrant pill on Shenque's point, and then use a handkerchief to cover it. The two of them said nothing, quietly enjoying the fragrance emanating from the incense burner.
"Orchid fragrance?" The middle-aged woman raised her eyebrows slightly: "It really made me feel warm in my abdomen. It's really a good thing!"
Fang Qingshi handed over a cup of tea: "There are not many people who know the goods in Luwu County. It seems that Madam is a master. This spice is Zimu Pills, called Junzi Incense. The incense pills in the incense burner are indeed mainly orchids. Specifically,
It’s inconvenient to reveal anything, but it can soothe the mind and make people feel comfortable.”
"Thirty taels is still expensive, so aren't you worried that no one will care about you?" the middle-aged woman asked.
Fang Qingshi shook his head: "I'm not afraid, of course. All rare spices are obtained by those who are destined. The production techniques are special and the craftsmanship is complicated. You can only get a few boxes a year. The foundation of Fangjia Incense Shop displayed in the shop can really make money."
The spices that make money are goods that ordinary people can carry a few packages with. Only small profits and quick sales can support the business. It is not easy to make money with this kind of spices, but it is not difficult to get a good name."
"She looks young, but she is quite transparent." The middle-aged woman took a sip of tea and said: "I am the head of Chunxiang House. Others call me Sister Hong. If your spices can be cheaper, I will
How about you let all my girls give it a try?"
Fang Qingshi looked troubled: "Sister Hong, the price of this spice is already very low. Not to mention far away, a box of 50 taels in Qinghe Prefecture must be a good thing that can't be bought at once, but Chunxiang Tower's business is still
I really want to make it, why don’t I bring some spices over and if Sister Hong thinks they are suitable, let’s continue the discussion?”
Although I have lived two lifetimes, in my previous life I was old-fashioned and looked down on the people in Feng Yuechang, so the spices at that time were not sold like this.
With the business of Chunxiang House in hand, I can get involved with the official brothel again when I have time. With these two companies to rely on for my business in Luwu County, I can not only become rich, but also have a solid family foundation.
Ouyang Hong nodded: "Okay."
Fang Qingshi went out and picked eight kinds of spices. They arranged them in groups of four in two rows and sent them to Ouyang Hong: "Sister Hong, these are eight kinds of spices. Four are lavender incense and can also be used as incense."
Indoors, they are prune, potpourri, peony and hibiscus."
Ouyang Hong opened them one by one, smelled them, and asked, "What about the other four kinds?"
"This is Peixiang." Fang Qingshi opened the first box, which was plum blossom-shaped and about the size of a thumb: "This is Meixiang, a fragrant pill that you wear with you. There are eighteen flowers in a box, and you put one in the sachet.
Just put two of them, and even if people are sitting upright, others will smell the fragrance. It’s not strong, but it’s definitely not something that can be overcome by rouge and gouache.”
Ouyang Hong is not very proficient in spices, but after using them a lot, she knows a lot about this place: "Are the remaining several kinds of spices the same as Xiang Wan'er?"
"One-to-one correspondence, each has its own merits. Burning incense and wearing incense complement each other, making people unforgettable after smelling them." Fang Qingshi said.
Ouyang Hong looked at Fang Qingshi curiously: "You are really capable. There has never been an incense shop in Luwu County. Your accent is from Luwu County. Why haven't you done it before?"
Fang Qingshi raised the corners of her lips and smiled: "My sister and I were too young to learn the craftsmanship passed down by our master. We were afraid that our master would be disgraced if we were not good at it. Now that we are somewhat successful, we dare to open a shop."
"So that's it." Ouyang Hong asked about the price. Burning incense and wearing incense cost ten taels of silver per set, totaling four sets.
I happily gave him 40 taels of silver, and when I was about to leave, I couldn't help but glance at the 30 taels of spices on the table, and reluctantly left.
Fang Qingshi sent the person outside, accompanied Ouyang Hong to select a few more common spices, and finally presented four exquisite sachets and several packets of insect repellent incense.
Just as Ouyang Hong was walking out, she met Duan Chengde who was entering.
Duan Chengde stopped and Ouyang Hong glanced at Duan Chengde, snorted disdainfully, twisted her waist and walked away.
When Fang Qingshi saw this scene, he murmured in his heart, do these two people know each other? It seems that the person Duan Chengde likes is in the hands of Ouyang Hong. Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk tsk, he wanted to stand by and watch, it looks like it is quite embarrassing.
