CHAPTER 328: CHAPTER 328: YOU’RE ALL IN CAHOOTS

Pei Shu’er withdrew the words she hadn’t managed to say: Then let’s make it cheaper for everyone, only five hundred coins.

However, this result is still good. She continues selling gift boxes, saving everyone from just buying one piece in the future.

Anyway, everyone can buy it. As for the gift box, it’s actually just a gimmick.

Pei Shu’er realized that women are very willing to spend on products that make them beautiful.

The girls buying beauty soap here, some are not very good-looking, and some are very good-looking.

But without exception, they all buy this beauty soap to become beautiful.

The other shops were stunned. This thing is sold so expensively, and they all thought no one would buy it, just waiting to see Pei’s joke.

But everyone was scrambling to buy it, Pei’s business got even better. Compared to theirs, it seemed a bit deserted.

That Miss Li, usually such a gentle girl, now actually fought with the girl next to her for the beauty soap.

Lin Yu came over to maintain order, and the scene finally stabilized, with everyone lining up to buy.

After taking the beauty soap home, everyone tried it immediately.

Then they discovered the longer they used this beauty soap, the more pronounced the effect was, and their skin became more delicate.

Huang Xiaocui, who was originally dark and rough, found her skin at least two shades lighter when she looked into the copper mirror after using a piece of beauty soap.

Previously she was darker than Xiao Hua from next door, and Xiao Hua had even laughed at her for looking like a country bumpkin.

Now she walks down the street, whiter than Xiao Hua, her skin smoother than Xiao Hua’s.

Now Xiao Hua is unwilling to go out with her.

Huang Xiaocui hurried to Mrs. Pei’s to buy beauty soap, only to be told it was sold out.

Huang Xiaocui was very anxious and finally took out her private stash of money to order a gift box immediately.

"I want to place an order."

Yinxing immediately came over to fill out the order form and handed a copy to Huang Xiaocui.

"Miss Huang, keep this safe. Your beauty soap will be delivered in five days, and you must pay the balance then to take the beauty soap away."

Huang Xiaocui nodded repeatedly. She was just at the age to get married, and her parents were previously worried she wouldn’t find someone.

Now having used the beauty soap, matchmakers were coming one after another, making her parents both annoyed and happy.

Five days later, Huang Xiaocui’s beauty soap gift box arrived, and others also wanted to place orders but were refused.

"We won’t accept any more orders in the future, only selling what we have in stock."

Pei Shu’er was considering her death deadline, fearing that if she accepted more orders, she wouldn’t be able to fulfill them.

Better to let everyone wait and avoid stirring up trouble later.

Moreover, after this batch of soap, Pei Shu’er made as much as 200 taels of silver, with beauty soap selling for double the price of regular soap.

Soap takes the thin profit and high sales route, while beauty soap takes the high-end precision route, selling one batch worth many regular soaps.

But for Pei’s Trading House to establish a reputation, high-end routes alone wouldn’t suffice.

The people-friendly route must also be taken.

Because Pei Shu’er is currently here, with the raw materials and manufacturing tools available, she can also produce here.

These days, Pei Shu’er was very busy here, and with no bothersome issues, she wasn’t thinking about going back.

But just as her beauty soap sales were booming, a girl suddenly appeared at Pei’s doorstep, covering her face.

"Someone, help! This Pei’s Trading House’s beauty soap disfigured me."

The commotion outside grew louder, and those who were going to buy beauty soap put them back.

Pei Shu’er walked up to the girl and saw her face indeed had many red rashes.

When the girl saw Pei Shu’er, she immediately tried to grab her collar to seek justice.

"You compensate for my face! I had such a beautiful face before! I’m about to get married soon, and if you ruin my face, how am I supposed to get married?"

The other girls frowned. If this thing indeed disfigures, then they wouldn’t dare to use it anymore. Some were already shouting for returns.

"We don’t want it anymore. If you don’t refund us, we’ll report this to the authorities!"

The business had been lively, and everyone liked the beauty soap, but now, everyone despised it equally.

Considering it costs three taels of silver per box and could ruin their faces, no one was calm.

Pei Shu’er responded with a gentle smile, "Everyone, please rest assured. Let me first see what’s going on with this girl. If this beauty soap indeed disfigures, I will surely refund everyone their money."

Everyone’s emotions were calmed down, but the girl was relentless.

"Compensation is one thing, but my face is ruined like this. Can money make my face better?"

Liu Hongwang hid on one side, feeling delighted. If Pei Shu’er had to pay compensation, the shop couldn’t continue.

Maybe, she might even end up in jail.

Then his house would return to his hands.

Pei Shu’er still wore a gentle smile, but it inexplicably gave the girl a sense of unease.

"Of course, your face won’t get better. If you don’t treat it soon, your face might stay like this forever."

Pei Shu’er had circled around the girl, getting a closer look, detecting no scent of the beauty soap on her.

Seeing the girl being aggressive but somewhat bluffing, Pei Shu’er understood the situation.

It turns out to be someone trying to extort.

Upon hearing Pei Shu’er, the girl froze and then her eyes turned red.

It’s incurable? No... that’s impossible. Liu Hongwang said that after finishing the medicine, it’d be fine in a few days?

Thinking Pei Shu’er was lying to scare her, she raised her voice even more.

"Since my face can’t be healed, you owe me money even more."

Pei Shu’er’s lips curled slightly, "Didn’t the person who sent you to frame us already pay you once?"

The girl was shocked at first, thinking Pei Shu’er must know something.

"I’m just here to get justice for my disfigured face; don’t twist the facts."

Pei Shu’er casually pointed at a girl in the crowd who appeared very honest.

"Miss, come up and smell this girl’s scent and see if there is any fragrance of our Pei’s beauty soap."

Huang Xiaocui stepped up and sniffed, indeed finding no scent.

"No scent."

The disfigured girl quickly retorted, "After discovering the rash last night, I haven’t washed again, so why would there be a scent."

Huang Xiaocui straightforwardly stated, "But this beauty soap, after washing once, leaves a scent for at least three days."

With those words, everyone realized that the girl might never have washed with this beauty soap, which is why.

Everyone noticed the girl’s shabby clothes, even with patches on them.

She didn’t seem the type to spend five hundred coins on beauty soap.

The girl stood up and pushed Huang Xiaocui.

"You’re all in cahoots, that’s why you’re siding with Pei’s."
