Chapter 255: 255: Wang Yuan’s Beauty Salon
Wang Yuan’s new company is finally ready and about to open. On that day, she specially invited a group of high society women to her beauty salon as guests; her sister-in-law Tong Yunyun, the Zhan Family’s eldest wife Fu Chunxue, and the second eldest’s wife Ge Teng all went to support her.
Even Mu Qiuniang made a brief appearance, cutting a large red flower at the ceremony before retreating backstage to rest.
Whether it’s Fu Chunxue, Ge Teng, or the elegant Tong Yunyun, they came today for Mu Qiuniang.
What a joke! Whether Wang Yuan’s beauty cream or Body Care Cream is effective, don’t they have eyes?
Just a few months ago, they were all about the same age, and now Wang Yuan suddenly looks several years younger?!
When standing together, others thought Wang Yuan was their "younger sister," but only heaven knows that Wang Yuan is around their age.
"Auntie Grandmother, the beauty cream you gave me last time is so effective. Look at my face; isn’t it much fairer and more tender?" Fu Chunxue was extremely satisfied with her current skin. Previously, after having too many children, her skin had become somewhat loose, especially the flesh around her waist, which retained a bit of a swimming ring no matter how she took care of it.
She always thought of ways to wear clothes that would cover her waist, making her appear slimmer.
But she didn’t expect that her son, Zhan Jingshu, brought a bottle of Body Care Cream sent by Mu Qiuniang. After just a few days of use, all the stretch marks on her stomach disappeared, and her skin became supple.
In the end, after using that bottle, her whole skin condition transformed as if she became a different person.
Her husband, Zhan Zhengxiao, even asked her whether she had undergone some laser treatment at the beauty salon, saying that such things are not good for the body, and beauty should not come at the expense of health.
Fu Chunxue helplessly said, "No, isn’t this the Body Care Cream your son gave me last time? It was handmade by his Master."
"You mean, last time..." Zhan Zhengxiao remembered, "At that time, your son gave you the one meant for your sister-in-law as well. Since it’s so effective, did you later give her any? So she won’t make trouble with you if she finds out."
"I gave it to her. After two or three days, she saw my skin was much better and shamelessly asked for a bottle. You know your sister-in-law’s temper; once she asked, how could I refuse?" To be honest, she hadn’t originally wanted to give it.
Although Ge Teng used it a bit late, the effect was also superb. Even if she was dissatisfied with her family’s sister-in-law or unhappy with Mu Qiuniang for favoring the sister-in-law’s family, it’s human nature to love beauty. Even if she didn’t like the owner of the product, as long as she liked the product, that’s all that mattered.
Ge Teng had thick skin, completely forgetting her previous disdain for Mu Qiuniang. Seeing her sister-in-law open her mouth, she immediately followed saying, "Yes, yes, Auntie Grandmother, it’s my skin that became much more tender after using your beauty cream. So many sisters have seen it and mistook it for some foreign high-end product, making them so envious, all asking me."
"Indeed, can Auntie Grandmother be ordinary? The stuff she provides is naturally the best. Rest assured, in the future, you won’t have to worry about the beauty cream or Body Care Cream. The stuff used in my beauty salon is based on Auntie Grandmother’s formula. As long as you come, it’s definitely 25% off," Wang Yuan said, having undergone "emergency training" either by her husband or nephew Mu Qing, to give her some understanding of business so as not to be fooled.
They all reminded her that since this is a formula from Auntie Grandmother and so effective, she doesn’t need to worry about having no business. Therefore, if she secures the formula and ensures quality, she doesn’t need to worry about anything else.
Good stuff, even if priced high, will still be in demand.
"Moreover, Aunt-in-law, you are catering to a select few. You don’t need to go big; just grasp these rich ladies in high society tightly. You have so many friends, give them some samples. Once they find it good, nothing more needs to be said."
"Mu Qing, your mind is so quick. I’ll listen to you!"
...
The beauty salon hadn’t even opened yet, but with the help of her husband Mu Mingsi, Wang Yuan had already prepared sample packs for those sisters to try. Therefore, at the opening, many high society women who had used it came rushing to grab the first VIP card of the beauty salon.
It’s said to be a black card and offers a 25% discount.
They all have money to burn; they aren’t afraid of expensive things, just the thought that the items might not be good enough. As long as it’s good, no price is too high for them. And Wang Yuan had already made it clear that although the ingredients of the beauty cream and Body Care Cream are all-natural, the environment required to grow them is very particular, so only a limited amount can be made at one time. It’s first come, first served; those who come later will have to wait.
But anyone who has used these products knows their benefits, right?
No beauty-loving woman would want to miss out. Hence, many came.
Wang Yuan just briefly greeted Fu Chunxue and Ge Teng and handed them over to her sister-in-law Tong Yunyun, while she rushed outside to greet other sisters.
Having run a studio for a long time, Tong Yunyun was already accustomed to dealing with these noble ladies, knowing how to entertain them. Sitting there, with just a few words, she managed to create an engaging atmosphere, diving into the topic of women’s love for beauty, unable to stop chatting for an hour or two.
Wang Yuan’s beauty salon is called Wang Yuan’s Private Garden. It only caters to clients with a VIP card and requires an appointment in advance. After all, the good stuff in the store is limited; if you don’t book ahead and there’s no stock, wouldn’t it be a wasted trip?
Normally, it’s frustrating when a customer comes to buy something and you don’t have it. But at Wang Yuan’s Private Garden, she offers the cream of the crop—so many people want it and there’s limited stock—so this is the only solution.
Everyone expressed understanding. If good stuff were abundant, would it still be considered good?
They expressed to Wang Yuan that they want extra stock to gift; another one said the trial effect was too good last time as sisters have already asked her to buy more; yet others mentioned they need it for their entire body and fear a small amount won’t suffice.
Wang Yuan laughed, "Sure, sure! You leave the number of pieces you want and your contacts, as soon as there’s stock, I’ll immediately have the store’s staff deliver it to your door."
"That’s great, it saves us a wasted trip. We don’t mind paying a bit more for delivery."
"Hehe... How could I charge you for that? I opened this beauty salon not to earn money but for everyone’s convenience. If it wasn’t for the fact that I found it effective myself and felt bad always imploring our Auntie Grandmother to hand-make it, I thought I’d just make some myself, so I could use it whenever I want. I wouldn’t have bothered."
"But you can’t just close down; where would we go otherwise? These are not everyday items; we can’t shamelessly ask you for freebies daily. Don’t you think?"
"There are so many of you, even if I wanted to give them, there has to be something to give. That’s why it’s better to have a store. If you want something, come and order, if we have it, we’ll deliver, if not, you’ll have to wait a bit—no one will be left short. Isn’t that great? It’s much better than me making just a little and not having enough to share."
"Hahaha...You’re absolutely right! Good stuff deserves to be shared with everyone."
