Springtime Farming: A Happy Wife At Home

Chapter 1101: Shao Yunduan

Editor: Henyee Translations

Qiao Xuan remained unfazed by the outcome, recognizing that it hinged on Shao Yunduan’s position and influence.

However, she harbored no concern about it.

To her surprise, the topic shifted to lipsticks.

The lipsticks she had created had already gained considerable fame within the capital.

For the time being, Yuezheng Xiao had decided against selling the lipsticks in the capital. Instead, he had discussed with Qiao Xuan the prospect of selling them in the province.

The capital’s market was vast, upscale, and intricate in terms of connections. It was best to avoid involvement in it for now.

Although they could collaborate with the Xie Family to alleviate some of the challenges, the Xie Family was a massive clan, and Xie Jingrong’s influence was limited. There was no guarantee that the Xie Family wouldn’t cause complications.

Furthermore, the quantity of goods available was limited.

Given the restricted production capacity, Qiao Xuan couldn’t obtain a substantial supply of lipsticks.

Thus, she decided to keep this lucrative and secure venture to herself. She had no intention of sharing the lipstick formulas and craftsmanship with anyone else, aligning with Yuezheng Xiao’s opinion.

Yuezheng Xiao respected her boundaries and never probed into the lipstick formulas and craftsmanship, fostering Qiao Xuan’s eagerness to spend time with the Yuezheng Family.

Once she possessed the means to keep the secret hidden from everyone, she could establish a workshop in a suitable location.

Yet again, it depended on Shao Yunduan.

But she didn’t feel rushed.

Although Yuezheng Xiao was only selling lipsticks within the province, they had gained considerable renown.

His elder brother would bring some as gifts for his business partners during his travels, and some people within the province purchased them for their relatives and friends in other regions. Gradually, news of these lipsticks reached the intermediate circles within the capital.

Yuezheng Xiao possessed ten limited editions, and out of those, five were acquired by noble ladies residing in the capital.

Numerous ladies and madams were fervently inquiring about the purchasing process, and some even sought assistance from others to obtain them.

Merchants based in the capital, particularly those specializing in rouge and cosmetics, attempted to study the strategies for selling these limited editions. However, their efforts were all in vain.

Due to Yuzhang’s remote location and the fact that the lipsticks posed no threat to the sales of lip gloss within a 500-meter radius of the capital, people either approached Yuezheng Xiao for cooperation or resorted to empty threats of collaboration.

Being situated in a secluded corner, the Yuezheng Family enjoyed relative tranquility.

The merchants who visited their doorstep were nowhere near the same league as the Yuezheng Family, let alone capable of suppressing them.

Yuezheng Xiao had publicly declared that the production process was intricate, involving complex raw materials, and the products were strictly limited in quantity.

This created the perception that the product was exceedingly rare and difficult to produce, causing many to step back.

However, Qiao Xuan was taken aback by her own mention in this context.

The topic of lipsticks ignited great excitement among the madams, who indulged in comparing the variety of styles and colors they possessed.

“I’ve heard that lipstick production is quite troublesome, resulting in limited availability. Such a pity!”

“Yes, if only we could establish a store in the intermediate area, we wouldn’t have to go through so much trouble to acquire them.”

“At times, we can’t even manage to purchase them!”

“There’s an overwhelming demand here!”

“In my opinion, it seems that the owner lacks business acumen. Why not consider opening a store in the capital? What’s the point of worrying about the business?”

“The owner is not unintelligent. They are capable of making profits, but opening multiple stores might not be feasible. I’ve heard that there is only one store in Yuzhang City, just one!”

“Absolutely!”

“Exactly! Otherwise, there would have been additional stores by now.”
