Soon Du Wanchun's rouge shop gradually became famous among the noble ladies in the capital.
It's just that Cheng'an County is far away from the capital, so these ladies will send their servants all the way to buy it.
Du Wanchun had just arrived at the shop when he saw a servant riding a dusty horse.
"Is this the Zhou Family Rouge Shop?" The servant got off his horse and strode into the shop.
Du Wanchun smiled and raised his head and responded, "Yes, this is the Zhou Family Rouge Shop."
The servant wiped the sweat from his forehead, then took a sip of water and said with a smile: "Shopkeeper, do you sell some beauty cream here?"
Du Wanchun replied: "Yes." ?.?????.ℂ??
The servant was shocked, "That's great. My wife sent me to buy it. How much does it cost?"
Du Wanchun responded with a smile: "We have three types of balm here, one is thirty taels, one is 3 taels, and another is 30 taels a bottle. It depends on which one your wife wants. "
The servant listened and said quickly: "Thirty-two bottles, my wife told me, she said the more expensive your ointment is, the better."
Du Wanchun was happy when he saw the business coming, "How many bottles does your wife want?"
The servant took out three or four silver notes directly from his arms. Each bank note was worth one hundred taels of silver. He smiled and said, "Shopkeeper, there are a total of four hundred taels of silver here. How many bottles can you give me?"
It was the first time Du Wanchun received such a big business, and he asked tentatively: "I have thirty taels a bottle here. Four hundred taels of silver can only buy thirteen bottles at most. But seeing you come in such a hurry, I will sell you fourteen." bottle."
The servant was overjoyed after hearing this and saluted Du Wanchun: "Thank you very much, shopkeeper."
Du Wanchun turned around and took out fourteen bottles of ointment, and then sealed each bottle with a seal.
When sealing it, he did not forget to tell the servant: "Look carefully, if this seal is opened on the road, our shop will not be responsible after the lady uses it. If the seal is not opened, if you have any questions, madam, you can come to the shop to find it." I."
The servant looked at it carefully and responded quickly: "I know, the shopkeeper."
Du Wanchun put the balm in his hand into a wooden box and handed it to him.
The servant took it in his hand, turned around and got into the carriage with a smile on his face.
Here, the carriage has just left.
Not long after, two more carriages stopped at the door.
Du Wanchun looked up at the door and saw a young woman in gorgeous clothes stepping out of the carriage.
Then a middle-aged man came up behind her.
When Du Wanchun saw the middle-aged man, his eyes narrowed slightly, then he saluted him and said, "Your Majesty..."
The emperor changed into a pair of light yellow civilian clothes, holding a fan in his hand, with his hands behind his back, looking left and right at her shop, "No need to be polite, I just came to take a look at your rouge shop."
The balm from their Zhou Family Rouge Shop is very popular these days in the capital.
Even the empress in the palace wants a bottle of it.
The one who came with the emperor today was his newly adopted concubine, who had been pestering the emperor to buy balm. The emperor thought that he was taking her for fun, so he came to Cheng'an County incognito for a private visit.
Du Wanchun was surprised and stepped forward to pour a cup of tea for each of them.
The little beloved concubine looked to be as old as Du Wanchun.
She picked up the teacup and glanced at it gently, "You'd be so kind as to give us this kind of tea."
Du Wanchun put the tea on the table and did not reply to her words.
She saluted the emperor and said, "Your Majesty, are you here to buy ointment?"
After looking around the shop, the emperor smiled and said, "This little shop of yours is smaller than I thought."
Du Wanchun lowered his head and said, "Yes, it was originally a small shop."
Seeing Du Wanchun ignoring her, the beloved concubine felt a little unhappy and said to the emperor, "This little girl really doesn't know etiquette."
She originally thought that the emperor would help her scold Du Wanchun, but she knew that the emperor just said: "This is a private visit incognito, what etiquette is required."
The beloved concubine's face darkened when she heard this, she gritted her teeth and lips and sat down angrily.
This beloved concubine's surname was Yue, and the emperor named her Mrs. Yue, not even a concubine.
The emperor walked up to Du Wanchun and continued: "Where is Mr. Zhou?"
Du Wanchun replied: "Master Zhou is at the Yamen."
The emperor nodded lightly, "I will go to the county government office to pay him a proper visit later."
Du Wanchun breathed a sigh of relief, "Yes, Your Majesty."
Normally Zhou Ruiyuan would not disguise himself if nothing happened, but this morning Du Wanchun always felt that something was going to happen, so he asked Zhou Ruiyuan to do a simple disguise before leaving.
Fortunately, she reacted quickly, otherwise she would have been caught by the emperor.
The emperor asked the eunuch behind him to give Du Wanchun one hundred taels of silver and buy three bottles of Zhuyan Cream here.
Mrs. Yue was very unhappy at first, but after receiving these three bottles of beauty cream, she immediately put her unhappiness behind.
Du Wanchun followed the emperor to the mansion next to the county government office.
When the three of them arrived at the door, Xiao Mianmian ran out with a smile on her face.
"Mother~"
"Mother~"
