The Big Farmer of Time Traveling

Chapter 321 Book and Makeup

The most expensive rouge used to be only one tael of silver, but now Lin Xiazhi raised the price to 15 taels of silver for a set, and three taels of silver for a box. Those who have money will naturally buy it.

Cheng Fulang was not convinced by Lin Xiazhi this time, he still felt that the price Lin Xiazhi set was too high.Before selling jewelry, he felt that Lin Xiazhi's price was low, but now that he sold cosmetics, he felt that Lin Xiazhi's price was high.

Lin Xiazhi didn't say much, time is the only criterion for testing the truth, and Cheng Fulang will understand when the result comes out.Yuxi team organizes, please pay attention.

Looking at the account book, Lin Xiazhi became in a very good mood. Although the business of the Liang family had been affected by the fragrance powder before that, their business was still the best in the county. From today onwards, Zhu Yuge's Joining, the status of the Liang family is in jeopardy.

I heard from Cheng Wenliu that not only did Zhu Yuge affect the Liang family's business, but also the Zhou family, who had negotiated marriage with the Liang family before, also took action against the Liang family, eating away part of the Liang family's business very quickly, and causing the Liang family to lose several townships at once. .

At this time, if Mr. Liang made a decisive decision to reduce the size of his shop, maybe the Liang family could still be saved.

I don't know what choice Mr. Liang will make. It's best to pack up his things and leave Jiangning County in despair, so that he won't get upset every time he thinks of the Liang family.

Since Zhu Yuge started to sell new cosmetics, a trend of makeup has gradually become popular from Jiangning County, and spread to the counties outside Jiangning County at an extremely fast speed.

Although Zhu Yu Ge no longer has free makeup experience activities, there are still an endless stream of people who come to Zhu Yu Ge to buy new cosmetics.

Within a few days, Mrs. Huang, the shopkeeper of Zhu Yuge, came to Lin Xiazhi to report the problem, saying that the shop assistants had to deal with countless questions from customers about how to use these cosmetics every day, so that when customers who chose jewelry came to the door, no one could be identified to receive them.

Lin Xiazhi didn't think about this before. In modern times, there are various ways for people to learn how to make up. How to use cosmetics is not what everyone pays attention to. Everyone pays more attention to the cosmetics themselves.

When it comes to Jingguo, apart from getting information from books, the information is passed on by word of mouth. Not everyone who comes to buy cosmetics knows how to use them. Those rich people from other places usually let their servants come to purchase. The servant made a mistake, and went back and said it was wrong, so the painted makeup can't be seen.

Thinking of this, Lin Xiazhi immediately asked several makeup artists to sum up several kinds of makeup that are suitable for most people, and made a simple instruction manual, and asked someone in the printing shop to print it and put it aside, and give a copy to anyone who buys it .

With these few basic makeup explanation pictures, almost immediately these buddies who bought cosmetics were inspired to study makeup.

Overnight, Zhaojun makeup and Xishi makeup suddenly became popular, no matter whether they bought the new cosmetics produced by Zhu Yuge or not, everyone followed suit.

This is because at the end of July, Qingdai Publishing House published two story books again, "Wang Zhaojun" and "Xi Shi". Does Mei Geer have any good suggestions?

The first thing that popped into Lin Xiazhi's mind were two beauties, one was wearing a hood, was slender, and was riding a tall horse. In the resplendent and resplendent imperial palace, among the emperor and concubines, she appears weak, intelligent and tenacious.

Lin Xiazhi's understanding of these two characters is different from that of the people of Jingguo. He did not give any advice on appearance, but only told them that they can give the two protagonists different characteristics in the storybook, so that readers can think of them as long as they see this characteristic. Whoever it is will do.

I don't know what the brothers who wrote these two scripts thought, but in the end, the protagonists created by the two of them are very distinctive in appearance.

There is a red birthmark between Xishi's eyebrows that looks like a flower. Every time Xishi comes out, she will use a thin brush to paint the flower between her eyebrows vividly and gorgeously.

And because Wang Zhaojun was going to the outside of the Great Wall, Wang Zhaojun’s brother heard that the cheeks of people outside the Great Wall were always red, so he wrote that in order to quickly integrate into the environment outside the Great Wall, Wang Zhaojun would deliberately smear his cheeks every time he appeared in front of people. Red, to win the favor of the king outside the Great Wall.

The characteristics of these two people are integrated into the makeup by everyone, and it becomes Xishi makeup and Zhaojun makeup. Walking on the street, the oncoming brother either has a flower on his forehead or flushed cheeks.

The stories in these two scripts are that the brothers are in the middle of the two countries and have an impact on the war. Although they are not as hotly discussed as the stories of the other two brothers going to the battlefield, they have also become a topic of discussion after dinner. .

Naturally, the former Taifu sent the emperor a new assignment.

The emperor wanted to read it, and needless to say, the ministers below all read the book.

The war faction feels that Brother should not be a victim of the war.How incompetent a country is to let weak brothers come forward to prevent wars and send their own citizens to other countries to suffer. The people who are sent will definitely not easily win the favor of the enemy king as the script says.

There are also peace factions who think that wars will shed blood. Once the war starts, it will not be one or two people who will be sacrificed, but tens of thousands of families will be broken. If a few people can be exchanged for peace, why not.

The main combat faction does not approve of my brother's appearance.They feel that the person opposite is a hypocrite who talks about benevolence, righteousness and morality, but in fact it is for their own safety and only thinks about themselves.

The peace faction says that people who talk about war every day are reckless, and they only want to have fun for a while, regardless of the hardships of the people's lives.

Discussions on both sides spread from the court to the people, and the common people also had their own opinions. Although everyone had different opinions, they all restrained themselves within a certain range, and no conflicts broke out due to disputes.

This discussion was led by the emperor. The nomads in Xiliang have always been eyeing Jingguo. In the ten years since he took the throne, Xiliang has only harassed Jingguo in the first two years, and fought with Jingguo from time to time. Later, because of the outbreak of civil strife in Xiliang, Jingguo could not take care of Jingguo, which gave Jingguo a chance to recuperate.

Now the emperor has received the news that the Xiliang Kingdom will be reunified again, and those warlike barbarians will once again look at the fat of Jing Kingdom. As the emperor, he must let the people of his country understand what war is.

The emperor of the previous dynasty adopted a policy of ignoring the people, so that the country would only become poorer and more backward, so after the overthrow of the previous dynasty, the Zhao family, as the kings of the Jing Kingdom, have been working hard to enlighten the people, but unfortunately they couldn’t find the right way. A generation finally has the eyebrows.

The Taifu gave these scripts to the emperor, and the emperor used the scripts to cause controversy, and then led the people to participate in it, moistening things and quietly telling the people what the royal family wanted to say.

Now there have been some effects. The people in the capital and the surrounding counties and towns have "their own views". It is to work hard to strengthen one's own country. Only when the country is strong will there be no invasion by foreign enemies, let alone the following things.

This "thinking" ethos will spread from the capital all the way to the outside, and become a seed in the hearts of every Jingguo person, growing up with them.

Lin Xiazhi doesn't think at all now that he just wanted to write a few story books at first to let his buddies improve their self-awareness.

As a result, the script has a huge influence and will be used by the emperor to "educate" the people. If he knew, he would definitely not tell these stories and replace them with other stories.

Now that the emperor is a Mingjun, I don’t mind if he writes these things. If the emperor’s thoughts change in a few years, it’s hard to say what will happen because of these words.

Lin Xiazhi's stomach was getting bigger and bigger, neither Cheng Wenliu nor Cheng Fulang would let him go out anymore, but Lin Xiazhi couldn't sit still, if he was not allowed to go out, someone had to accompany him to talk about new things from time to time.

Cheng Wenliu stayed with him for two days, but Lin Xiazhi got tired of him, and sent someone to invite Yang Yusheng and Li Xiu to come to the county to accompany him after driving him out.

Without further ado, Yang Yusheng and Li Xiu packed up their luggage and said they would go to the county town for a short stay. Li Xiu was worried that Lin Xiazhi would get impatient, so he let Yang Yusheng go first. He went to Lin's house to settle the staff today, and went to Cheng's house tomorrow.

"Brother Yusheng, when you were pregnant, how could you be so patient and not go out, I was locked up at home every day, and I got moldy." Lin Xiazhi stood up when she saw Yang Yusheng, and went forward to pull Yang Yusheng to complain.

"Brother Xia, you are not a piece of wood, how could you get moldy?" Yang Yusheng quickly helped him to sit back.

Seeing Lin Xiazhi this time, Yang Yusheng felt that Lin Xiazhi's belly was much bigger than last time. Seeing that he was really bored at home, he picked up some interesting topics to talk about.

The people Yang Yusheng had the most contact with were the villagers. He talked about interesting things in the village: "I still remember that Chengzu ran to many villages to find milk for the rice cakes and millet balls. If they were born in two nights and one year , you won’t be short of milk anymore.”

"Why, is there a lot of milk now?" Lin Xiazhi didn't understand what Yang Yusheng meant. He didn't pay much attention to the livestock in the village, and he didn't know the specific situation.

"Now everyone has money in their hands. Basically, every household raises cattle and sheep raised with bean dregs. Now our village does not need to go to other villages to buy lambs. The ewes we raise can give birth to lambs, and the lambs drink milk. There are so many cows and goats’ milk in the village.” Yang Yusheng couldn’t help laughing at this point, “Not only is there no shortage of milk, but even the adults are drinking milk. Last time I heard the cow talking to my grandmother , said that he has gained a lot of weight because of drinking milk every day, and he doesn't want to enter the kitchen if it smells of milk."

"Haha, there are still people who think they are getting fat." Lin Xiazhi never thought that such a situation would happen if there is too much milk. Being fat means that the family is well-off and rich. "Can the excess goat milk and milk be sold to people in other villages? The child grows well after drinking milk."
