Aunt Wang and her aunt have already steamed the balm they are going to make today.
"Wan Chun, you're awake." Du Damei walked to her side and said with a smile, "Your mother and your father went to the fields. I helped you prepare breakfast."
She said, looking at the child she was carrying behind her.
This child is four or five months old. Her little face is chubby, and she looks a bit like her father.
Du Wanchun took out a little of the bun in his hand and handed it to the little baby, then turned and entered the house.
The Zhou family's life didn't seem to have changed because the emperor came to Qingzhou Mansion. On the contrary, their life was getting better and better.
Aunt Zhou used gardenia, jasmine, osmanthus, magnolia, chrysanthemum, and camellia to make six kinds of balm.
The ointment is packed in small porcelain bottles and sold in shops. It is more popular than perfume. ?.?????.???
Compared with perfume, balm is smaller and more convenient to carry. The small porcelain bottle is about the size of an egg. You can put it on your body and apply it anytime and anywhere.
At the same time, the fragrance lasts longer and it also has a moisturizing effect.
In addition, the price is also very cheap. It only took half a month for almost everyone in Cheng'an County to have one bottle.
Seeing that the sales were good, Du Wanchun followed Aunt Zhou to make some more and asked the escort agency to send some to Zhou Feng's shop in the capital.
Not long after this batch of balm arrived at the shop, Zhou Feng sold out only the last box.
Within a month, it is hard to find a fragrance.
As his business got better and better, Zhou Feng gained more and more status among the vendors in the capital, and soon everyone knew about this shopkeeper Zhou.
After Concubine Wu heard about this magical balm in the palace, she specially asked the palace maid to buy some.
However, the ointment became more and more fragrant the more others applied it, and the more she applied it, the more smelly it became, and finally she got so angry that she threw away all the ointment.
The maids thought the ointment was good, so they secretly picked it up and took it back for use.
Later, the ladies in the palace smelled good, so they all asked their maids to go to the Zhou Family Incense Shop to buy some.
Soon, all the ladies in the capital knew that the Zhou family balm was a good thing.
Du Wanchun saw that there was more and more money in his family's books, so he went to Aunt Zhou and discussed with her: "Mom, this money?"
Aunt Zhou took the account book, looked at it, and said, "This money is enough for us to rebuild several big houses."
Du Wanchun replied: "This is only the account book of our store in Cheng'an County, and does not include the money of my second brother's store in Jingcheng."
Aunt Zhou thought for a while and said: "Wang Chun, let's divide the money into two parts. One part will be used by my uncle to recruit soldiers and horses, and the other part will be reserved for Feng'er to continue doing business and expand the Xiangpu business!"
Du Wanchun nodded, "Okay, mother!"
After she finished speaking, she immediately wrote a reply to Zhou Feng, asking him to open another incense shop in the capital.
The Zhou family's life here was getting more and more prosperous, but the emperor was frustrated. He stayed in Qingzhou Mansion for a month and couldn't find any news about the queen.
The old eunuch advised from the side: "Your Majesty, let's go back to Beijing, otherwise Concubine Wu will be suspicious."
The emperor took a long sip of wine and sighed, "I always feel that the queen is here, but why can't I find her?"
The old eunuch thought for a while and thought: "Your Majesty, didn't the fortune teller say that His Highness the Prince will have twins, a son and a daughter? How about we wait a little longer and come back here in a few months to check to see who has twins? fetal."
The emperor thought it made sense when he heard it, "We in Xuanyue Kingdom don't have many twins, so it is indeed much easier to check it this way."
