"Sister, do you know what kind of rouge and gouache the sisters in your house usually use? I am in business in this area. Seeing that my sister is kind, can I give you some discounts?"
Zhu Gui smiled and took out a wooden box from his arms. It looked very expensive. Zhu Yunwen on the side was stunned.
The madam wanted to refuse, but he also saw that the box in Zhu Gui's hand was not a mortal thing.
So he asked: "The sisters under me are all very delicate. If this thing of yours is not good, I will not give you money."
Zhu Gui said with a smile: "Of course I understand this truth, but you still have to use it to know the effect. Sister, why don't you give it a try and then make a decision?"
Zhu Gui naturally has this confidence because the thing in his hand comes from the system and is the same cosmetics he gave to Guo Huifei.
Seeing how determined he was, the madam took it over.
But the place where the two of them were talking was on the street, and it was not convenient to dress up here, so they were led to the brothel behind her.
The guards behind the two were stunned. If anyone knew that the acting king Zhu Gui had brought his grandson into the brothel, the current emperor would definitely chop off Zhu Gui's head.
But at this time, they had no choice but to guard the door of the brothel and not let anyone enter.
Zhu Gui and Zhu Yunwen were pulled into a room in the backyard by the madam.
The boss sat in front of the dressing table, opened the box, and took out the contents one by one.
Her eyes immediately lit up, because the things in front of her were very exquisite and seemed to be expensive.
She knew she had made a profit, so she hurriedly picked up a small bottle, poured out the liquid inside, and wiped it on her face.
"Ah, it's so refreshing. It feels good. Where did I find this stuff?" the madam asked as she applied it on her face.
"I'm in this business, so I have my own skills. Let's see if it works well. If it works well, we can continue talking." Zhu Gui said with a smile.
The madam nodded, and seeing that the other party refused to let go, she had no choice but to look in the mirror and start dressing up.
After half a stick of incense, the madam was surprised to find that the wrinkles on her face were no longer visible.
"This is really good stuff. What do you call the company?" the madam held the small bottle and said as if it were a treasure.
"My dear Zhu Gui, have you ever heard of my name?" Zhu Gui said one after another.
"Zhu Gui? Such a familiar name. There are really not many people with the surname Zhu in Nanjing." The madam thought for a moment in confusion.
Suddenly a ball of golden light burst out in his eyes, and he knelt down on the ground: "It turns out to be the acting king. The common people didn't know that it was the prince who arrived, so they begged to suffer."
As the madam spoke, he knelt on the ground and kowtowed, and soon there was a bloody mark on his forehead.
"Okay, I am not here to trouble you today, but I want to do a business with you, which is the things you are holding in your hands." Zhu Gui waved his hand and said very calmly.
"Business? Your Majesty, it's better not to joke with the untouchables." The madam said with a look of fear.
"Do you think this king is joking?" Zhu Gui said with a serious face.
His fierce look actually made the other party relax a lot. This was the face of a powerful man she was familiar with.
"Your Majesty is not joking with me. Your Majesty only wants my life. How much money do you want? Please tell me the number." The madam used Zhu Gui's things and knew that she had been deceived, so she stopped making excuses.
Zhu Gui was also troubled by this. If he had known about it, he would not have reported his identity.
"Can you tell me whether the things I brought out are useful?" Zhu Gui asked.
"It's easy to use, but the little one thinks it's lifeless." The madam said with a sad face.
"How about this box giving you five taels of silver?" Zhu Gui asked.
He has now mastered the system experience and money exchange formula. About one tael of silver can be exchanged for five taels of refined salt or cosmetics.
So even if he sells it to a brothel for five taels, he can still earn 4 times the price difference, which is considered a huge profit.
"Only five taels?" The madam raised her head in surprise, as if she didn't believe her ears.
"Yes, this first batch of goods only costs five taels of silver, but we still have to see how many people in your brothel are willing to switch to this kind of cosmetics."
Zhu Gui said calmly.
Opening up sales is the most difficult and important thing in business, so he did not hesitate to use low prices to open up the Nanjing brothel market.
After he has complete control over this market, it will not be too late to raise the price. He will have the final say on how to set the price at that time.
Naturally, the Madam didn't know what Zhu Gui was thinking. She was just very surprised. Did the prince really want to do business with him?
And at this time, he had a very bold idea in his mind, and he couldn't help but ask Zhu Gui: "My lord, do you want to sell it to me for only five taels of silver, or the price for me to buy it from you?"
The difference is huge.
If Zhu Gui asked him to sell it to other women in the brothel for five taels of silver, there would be no benefit to her.
But if this is just the purchase price, then the madam can sell it to others at a higher price.
In her heart, Zhu Gui's cosmetics are more effective than the best rouge and gouache she has ever used, so even if it sells for 20 taels, many people will rush to buy it.
And the price difference is what she, the middleman, can earn.
Zhu Gui naturally saw through her thoughts and said: "I will sell it to you for five taels of silver to other women in the brothel. For each copy sold, I can give you one tael of silver as a reward. If you can win
How about I give you 10% of the price increase rights for all orders from brothels on this street?"
When the old bustard heard this, he couldn't help but become happy and immediately kowtowed to thank him.
"Moreover, the news that this king is here today must not be spread, otherwise you will know the consequences."
Zhu Gui gave a final warning, the madam said.
"The common people know, and the common people know that this matter will never be spread." The old bustard immediately swore.
Zhu Guijie nodded, and then left the brothel with Zhu Yunwen who looked surprised.
"Uncle Emperor, did you just make a big deal?"
Although Zhu Yunwen didn't know how many cosmetics a brothel on a street could sell, he knew that Zhu Gui must have his own purpose in doing this.
"Yes, since brothel girls always have to spend money, why not let me earn it?" Zhu Gui said with a smile.
"When you become the emperor, you will know that firewood, rice, oil and salt are expensive." Zhu Gui said while patting Zhu Yunwen on the shoulder.
"Emperor? Actually, I don't really want to be an emperor." Zhu Yunwen had a melancholy expression on his face.
