Two flowers bloomed, each occupying a branch. After the King of Hell and Liu Ruyan entered the Middle Guizhou County, the two people separated in a alley.

Liu Ruyan was wearing a bamboo hat to hide her beauty. There was a ban on sabers in the city, so she handed the weapon to the King of Hell. Once again, she was alone on the busy street!

When they parted ways, the King of Hell had given her quite a bit of money to buy the items that could be used in disguise. Thus, Liu Ruyan did not waste time and directly began to search the county for the raw materials she needed!

Since it was her first time coming here, Liu Ruyan could only find someone to ask for directions. She went to a stall that sold small toys, and spent some money to buy a hairpin. Then she asked that person, "Boss, do you have any shops that sell good rouge powder in the city?"

When the shop owner heard Liu Ruyan's inquiry, he saw that the other person had bought something at his stall, so he enthusiastically pointed it out to Liu Ruyan and told her that he had an acquaintance at the head of the store. When he went there, as long as he reported his name, he would be able to get less silver taels.

After Liu Ruyan thanked the shop owner, she followed the directions her boss had given and walked all the way there. After walking for only two steps, she saw a makeup shop with the name "Hong Yan Zhai" hanging on it!

The surface of the store was rather bright. It was likely that the items sold here were quite varied as well. Thus, Liu Ruyan walked towards the "Beauty's Shop" very happily!

After Liu Ruyan entered the Beauty Lodge, she discovered that there were many young ladies who were picking out rouge powder. The shopkeeper was also a woman, and she was probably around 30 years old. She wore makeup and had a golden hairpin on her head.

Seeing Liu Ruyan enter the store, the shopkeeper had a waiter come to entertain her. The shopkeeper was also a woman, and she was about 20 or 8 years old. However, she did not wear any makeup on her face.

After the woman came over, she opened her mouth and her voice was very light and pleasant. She asked Liu Ruyan, "Sister, is this your first time in our shop? If you need anything, you can just tell me. "

At this moment, Liu Ruyan was still wearing a bamboo hat, and her outfit was very eye-catching. When the other young mistresses saw her, they all sized her up a few times, and when they saw that she was wearing a farm's bamboo hat, they thought it was just a rural woman, so they didn't take her seriously.

After Liu Ruyan heard what the woman said, she said to the woman, "I'm afraid that your shop doesn't have the things I need. How about you call the shopkeeper over and I'll talk to her!"

When the lady heard this, she glanced at Liu Ruyan's dressing again, and felt that she might be bragging. Thus, the lady said to Liu Ruyan, "We have everything in the beautiful Yan Zhaoyang, as long as it's rouge, you can take it even if it's for the palace maids. But, Miss, you have to pay the price!"

After saying that, the little girl shot a glance at Liu Ruyan. Liu Ruyan could hear the thorns in the little girl's words, and the corners of her mouth curled up. She then took out a slip of paper and passed it to the little girl.

After giving the list to the little girl, Liu Ruyan said, "Here, since you have everything here, give me a copy of what's on the list!"

The little girl took the list and with just a glance, she was shocked. Then, she said to Liu Ruyan with a bit of panic, "Miss, please wait a moment, I'll go find the shopkeeper!"

After Liu Ruyan took out the list, the crowd saw that the girl actually went to call for the shopkeeper. They were very surprised, so some of the ladies began to whisper among themselves, wondering what kind of order the girl had given the little girl. How could it cause such a ruckus?

At this moment, the shopkeeper was holding a list that Liu Ruyan had given him. He was frowning with happiness as he walked over to Liu Ruyan and asked, "Lady, do you want the items on this list immediately, or can you wait for a day or two?"

When she heard the shopkeeper's question, Liu Ruyan smiled and said to the shopkeeper, "I want the things on this list immediately. I wonder if your shop can collect the items on this list?"

After the shopkeeper heard Liu Ruyan say this, she said apologetically to Liu Ruyan, "Lady, I'm really sorry. If you want the goods in hand, forgive me for being blunt, but I still lack something from this list. This thing will only come tomorrow, so why don't you go to another house and buy it, or wait for a day, then come back tomorrow!"

Liu Ruyan thought for a while, then said to the shopkeeper, "Then you can give me everything you have on the list. I'll go to another house to buy those that are missing!"

When the shopkeeper heard this, he nodded his head and said to the waiter, "Swallow, take the list and bring all these items over. Then, you can wrap them up for the customer."

After saying this, the shopkeeper said to Liu Ruyan, "You are my shop's esteemed customer now that you have bought so many things. Please rest in the inner hall for a while, my shop assistant will deliver these items to you. With that said, she led Liu Ruyan into the inner hall!

After Liu Ruyan entered the inner hall, the young wives of the ladies who came to watch the fun surrounded her. Some people directly asked the shopkeeper how much he had bought. How did he become a VIP in the blink of an eye? And he even gave her half a price afterwards? [There are so many people buying here, yet the shopkeeper gave us half the price?]

When the shopkeeper saw everyone making a fuss, she smiled and pointed to one of the noble ladies dressed in gorgeous silk and silk and said, "Madam Hua is a frequent customer of mine. I can say this: Madam Hua has bought makeup for three years already. Do you think it's wrong for me to give her the next half price? "

It must be known that Madam Hua loved to buy high grade cosmetics. No matter what, it would cost her one or two hundred taels of silver a year, and even after three years, she still needed four or five hundred taels. This was only half of their total.

When Liu Ruyan came out, everyone looked at her in awe and eagerness. Some people wanted to go up and chat with her, but Liu Ruyan completely ignored them. She walked up to the shopkeeper and asked, "How much is it in total?"

The shopkeeper slightly smiled and said in a loud voice, "A total of 1006 taels of silvers. If I remove all of them, I will pay you 1000 taels of silver!"

When Liu Ruyan heard this, she just gave an 'oh' before reaching into her pocket to take out a silver note and give it to the shopkeeper.

The storekeeper took the banknotes and sucked in a breath of cold air. The banknotes were worth 10,000 taels of silver, but he had only received 1000 taels of silver. He still had to find 9000 taels for her! I don't think I have that much money in this shop!

In the end, the storekeeper could only say to Liu Ruyan, "Miss, how about this? You take these things first. It's not too late to settle the bill after you find the money!"
