Chapter 589 Lottery

Then look at the other accessories.

Qushui Building will open tomorrow. In order to attract customers and increase its popularity, Jiang Ran plans to hold a lottery.

If the prize is not attractive, it will naturally not mean much, but the famous "Sea Blue Enchantress" gave Jiang Ran inspiration.

She wanted to take advantage of the situation.

Therefore, Jiang Ran asked Yu Sanniang and other silversmiths to create a batch of jewelry based on Niqi pearls as soon as possible.

Of course, Ni Qi pearls are very rare. Even Jiang Ran only has nearly 2,000 Ni Qi pearls in her hands, and the number of perfect and flawless Ni Qi pearls above lake blue is only less than a hundred.

Therefore, the Niqi Pearl used in the lottery is definitely not as good as the "Blue Sea Enchantress", and it is not even as good as the few accessories Feng Chi ordered.

But Yu Sanniang and others are about to play their role.

"It's so beautiful. Who would have thought that these were just inferior and inferior Niqi pearls that were not eye-catching." Li Fusheng looked at these pearls. He, a grown man, wanted to wear one on his body.

"..."

The prizes for the opening of Qushui Building are divided into the special items "Stars", the first item "Several Liangs of Broken Silver", the second item "Blue Blood Dragon Lin", the third item "Blue Snow Rose", a participation award and a prank unlucky award.

The rewards for special to third-grade products are only one piece each, but they are all jewelry made of Niqi pearls.

There are tens of thousands of participation prizes, and the prizes are not limited to jewelry. They may also be some spiritual herbs provided by Baicaotang, or a dining coupon for a seafood restaurant run by Hong Yuan's family, etc.

The winner of the unlucky prize will be rewarded with an opportunity to perform in front of the Longzhu Spring in Qushui Tower. They can perform at will and do not force it. However, winners who have performed can be drawn again.

However, the number of unlucky prizes is very small, only about twenty.

Liu Wenyan, the newly appointed manager of Qushui Building, said with embarrassment: "I have to say that the person who set up this unlucky prize is a talent."

Jiang Ran nodded slightly in approval.

That's right, the person who set up the unlucky prize was Jiang Ran herself.

……

Yu Sanniang confirmed that there was nothing wrong with these accessories, and left after Jiang Ran put them into the storage ring.

"Manager Li, where did you throw those mud unicorn shells?" Jiang Ran played with a carved "Blue Blood Dragon Scale" with her fingertips. Thinking of something, she turned her head and asked Butler Li.

"Niqi shells?" Li Fusheng thought for a moment, "You said these shells were still useful, so we washed them and put them in the warehouse."

Needless to say, when the mud clams are fished out, the watch case always looks like a layer of mud attached to the stone. However, after the surface mud and stone are washed away, the watch case takes on a white color with a hint of blue. , quite beautiful.

Li Fusheng said, "Do you want to use it? I'll ask someone to bring it to you."

Jiang Ran nodded, "Take it here and find a few people with spots, scars, dark skin, etc. on their faces who are not good-looking."

Li Fusheng immediately called a few servants to arrange these two things. At the same time, he was a little confused, "What are you doing?"

"I remember that every time the Qingchen Chamber of Commerce came to Suling County, they would bring some rouge gouache to sell. It was very popular with young girls?" Jiang Ran did not answer, but asked this question instead. Li Fusheng nodded, "Yes, our house also purchased some and put them in your room..." However, I never saw the adults using them. Instead, I gave some to the women in the house, and they all liked them quite a lot.

Jiang Ran was always very patient with this old man. She explained, "Wearing Niqi pearls for a long time has the effect of preserving the appearance of the skin. Grinding Niqi pearls into powder and applying it on the face or swallowing it directly has a negative effect on people." The effect will be faster. In fact, most pearls in the ocean have a beauty effect on people, but the effect may not be as good as that of Niqi pearls. Moreover, there is also a thin layer of substance in the inner shell of Niqi pearls, which is good for us. Good for the human skin.”

"No wonder I heard the maids at my house discussing all day that the craftsmen's hands seemed to be getting smoother and smoother. It turned out to be due to long-term exposure to Niqi Pearls."

Li Fusheng was a little stunned. He only knew that Jiang Ran valued Niqi pearls very much and even spent thousands of dollars to let fishermen catch Niqi shells. He did not expect that these small pearls and humble-looking shells could have such wonderful uses.

At this time, the Niqi shells Jiang Ran wanted and the makeup testers arrived.

The master and the servant walked to a vacant room that was usually not used, where the shells and people were.

Jiang Ran said to several young and strong waiters, "Use a knife to scrape the powder from the inner shell of the mud clam. Try to scrape the powder as finely as possible."

"Yes."

Several waiters followed the instructions, and after a while they scraped out a small bowl of shell powder.

Shell powder is roughly white, with a hint of blue luster if you look closely.

Jiang Ran rolled some of it onto her fingers. It was slippery. It was obviously powder and dry, but it felt a little slippery when held in her hand.

Moreover, when the Niqi Shell Powder is in the bowl, there is still a hint of blue, but when it is touched evenly on the skin, it does not show that trace of blue. Instead, it adds a touch of moisture to the white color, unlike ordinary gouache. , if you put it on, it will be in vain.

Jiang Ran was a little surprised. After reading the information about Ni Qibei and some experiences from her previous life, she decided to develop a face powder using Ni Qibei powder, but the effect was better than expected.

However, Niqi clam powder also has disadvantages, that is, it smells a bit fishy and sweet. Ordinary people cannot smell it when using it, but it is not very friendly to some people with an extraordinary sense of smell.

Jiang Ran wiped off the powder on her hands, turned her head and said to a waitress who knew how to put on makeup, "I want to see the difference by using Niqi shell powder for their tops and comparing them with the gouache brought by the Light Dust Chamber of Commerce."

The maid nodded, took her tool and carefully dipped it in muddy shell powder and painted on other people's faces.

The people who were called to try on the makeup were a little nervous at first, but they soon felt comfortable with the cold and tender feeling on their faces, and gradually felt relieved.

But people who apply ordinary gouache are not so lucky. They only feel that their face is very thick, and some powder flies off from time to time, making it difficult to breathe.

Soon, makeup was put on the face of the makeup tester.

After seeing the finished product, the onlookers were shocked. Even the maid who applied their makeup personally was in disbelief, "Was this beauty born in my hands?"

"The contrast between the two kinds of gouache is so obvious when applied to the face." Even Li Fusheng, a man, could see the obvious difference.

The face of people who apply Niqi Bei powder is very natural, the skin color is very similar to other people's, and it has a more supple feeling.

Moreover, the spots and scars on the face are probably covered, leaving only some faint traces.

Relatively speaking, the gouache brought by the Qingchen Chamber of Commerce from Chaolian appears to be of very inferior quality. Perhaps in order to cover the flaws on the face of the person trying the makeup, the maid used a lot of paint on the person's face, so the whiteness was very unnatural.

Even the makeup tester couldn't help but complain, "Although I look ugly, I don't look like I've been dead for a few days before."
