Chapter 284 Lipsticks
Ning Xianxian was startled by him.

"Don't be crazy, the fields are used to grow flowers, where does the food come from?"

"Are you afraid you won't be able to buy food if you have money?"

"Your father won't go crazy with you." Ning Xianxian originally wanted to beat him up, but when he thought of Uncle Li Zheng, he immediately felt relieved.

In the eyes of old farmers, no matter how profitable they grow flowers, they are not as down-to-earth as growing grain.

Even if Liu Danfeng forced him to die, Li Zheng would not pay any attention.

Liu Danfeng himself realized this problem very quickly, so he had to say: "Okay, let's be serious now. I thought that your flower shop had little chance of success. I didn't expect you to use small tricks one after another to instigate customers They are all crazy. It seems that the flower shop can expand."

Ning Xianxian nodded: "Expansion is for sure. I just received the news from Ding Cha from Kyoto that almost all of the [-] flowers he prepared were sold out."

Liu Danfeng: "...so exaggerated?"

"It feels a little less than I expected." Ning Xianxian shook his head, "You don't even think about it, where is the capital? If a plaque falls, it can hit five officials."

Liu Danfeng: "I understand, they are all big fat sheep."

Ning Xianxian sighed: "It's still Ding Cha's shame, and he's too stingy. I asked him to hire a talented woman or a beauty like an oiran, but he actually thinks that she asks for too much money, so he is not willing to invite him!"

"I've heard your description of Nading tea recently, and I think he's more suitable for flower cultivation and planting. It's not good enough for business, he's not thick-skinned enough, and his brain isn't flexible enough." Liu Danfeng looked eager to try, "How about I go to Kyoto to be your shopkeeper?"

"You should rest." Ning Xianxian gave him a look, "You are not much better than Ding Cha, besides, if I send you to the capital, you will stop studying and take the imperial examination? Your father Mother still won't turn against me?"

"Then what about your business in Kyoto? Didn't you say that Kyoto is the most important thing?"

"You forgot, there is still a little fox in Kyoto." Ning Xianxian smiled mysteriously.

Liu Danfeng thought of that Miss Tang who was elegant in appearance but very unrestrained in her actions.

He hesitated: "It would be better if she was there, but she..."

"I don't want her to intervene in our business, I just want to borrow two shopkeepers from her." Ning Xianxian said with a smile, "The shopkeepers of the Tang family are all smarter than monkeys, so it's not so easy to borrow."

"fair enough."

Liu Danfeng was a little relieved.

Then he remembered something again and asked, "This shop is rented, should we just buy it?"

"Don't worry." Ning Xianxian looked calm, "Although we have a good start, we must not be impatient, we still have to take it step by step, steadily. In the future, flower shops like ours will definitely appear one after another of."

"You said you imitated the trend?"

"That's right." Ning Xianxian frowned and said, "This is very normal. We can only build a brand before this, gain a firm foothold, and then develop other aspects."

"What else?"

"Although selling flowers is a good business, the demand is not too great after all." Ning Xianxian said thoughtfully, "Flowers, in fact, can also be derived from many other products."

Liu Danfeng scratched his head: "For example?"

"For example..." Ning Xianxian glanced at him and suddenly smiled, "Have you ever bought rouge for a girl?"

Liu Danfeng's heart skipped a beat, but there was a smile on his face: "Young Master never does this kind of mother-in-law thing."

"Well, you are very straightforward." Ning Xianxian nodded solemnly, then changed the topic, "Isn't this rouge made of flower petals?"

Liu Danfeng understood a little bit: "You still want to make rouge and gouache? But Fendiexuan is already the largest store now, and it is difficult for us to surpass them."

"We can sell what they don't have." Ning Xianxian smiled and took out a piece of paper from his pocket, on which was drawn a round tube-shaped thing, "Guess what it is?"

Liu Danfeng took it over, looked left and right, looked up and down for a long time, and finally shook his head: "I've never seen it before, could it be some kind of weapon?"

"Weapon?" Ning Xianxian laughed, "You're not wrong to say that, it's a woman's weapon. My master said it's called lipstick."

After listening to her explanation for a while, Liu Danfeng suddenly realized: "Isn't it just the rouge for red lips? I saw that my mother used it, it's just a piece of red paper, it's not like that."

"How many colors does your mother's rouge have?"

"Aren't these... all red?" Liu Danfeng glanced at the girl's cherry blossom-like pink lips, and muttered in a low voice, "I didn't see any other colors. Actually, the pink color is also pretty. "

"Right, there is not only one color of lipstick. Different people have different skin colors, and the suitable color is also different." Ning Xianxian said excitedly, "My master said that hundreds of colors are rare!"

Liu Danfeng swallowed his saliva: "Your master...where did you meet him?"

"She didn't say it, and I didn't dare to ask." Ning Xianxian smiled, "But my master knows a lot of things that I have never heard of, and I have to coax her to write them all for me. When the business of the flower shop stabilizes , we will discuss this matter slowly.”

Liu Danfeng squinted at her: "I heard that Mrs. Qing traveled around the world when she was young, and I think she has learned a lot. But won't your conscience hurt when you oppress the elderly like this?"

"That's right, now that Northern Qi and our Great Zhou are about to fight again, master and master are also going to help out. War consumes the most food and grass. Although master didn't say it, as a disciple, I also want to share his worries." Ning Xianxian said with a smile .

Liu Danfeng said, "What do you want to do?"

"War needs a lot of food and grass to support. Those rich businessmen and rich people are not willing to pay for it. I can only help my master and get money out of their pockets." Ning Xianxian laughed and said, "You say, I exchange food and grass with Master for things like lipstick, will she be willing?"

"Are you going to use the money you earn to buy food and grass for your master and the others?"

"No, it's from the fat sheep's pocket to buy food and grass for my master." Ning Xianxian lowered his voice, "I heard that you have a good relationship with the young master of the county master's family in the academy?"

Liu Danfeng looked at her warily: "What do you want to do?"

"Go and treat him to a meal, and then find out which family's fat sheep his brother-in-law is." Ning Xianxian showed his white teeth and smiled sinisterly, "It's time to slaughter the fat sheep!"

As she spoke, she took out a piece of silver and gave it to him: "Take it, this is a business matter, eat and drink with public funds, and reimburse the full amount!"

Liu Danfeng: "..."

After all, he had been fooling around, so he went to find the son of the county master's family. After eating and drinking, he not only found out who the groom was, but also introduced Ning Xianxian to his sister.
