Chapter 156 Perfume
Chapter 156 Perfume
The fragrance is fresh and natural, as if you are in a forest after rain, breathing fresh air and feeling the gifts of nature.
"Try it. Does this perfume give you the feeling of a morning after the rain?" Xu Qingqing handed the perfume bottle to Mrs. Zhang and asked softly.
Mrs. Zhang took the perfume bottle, took a deep breath, and showed a surprised expression on her face. "Yes, that's the feeling! Fresh and natural, it seems to take me back to the early morning of my youth, walking in the garden, enjoying the tranquility and beauty."
Others echoed the sentiment, with exclamations of praise rising one after another.
After everyone who was interested had chosen their favorite perfume, Xu Qingqing took everyone to the second floor for a stroll.
It can be said that those who followed Shopkeeper Zhang today did not return empty-handed in the end, and more or less found what they liked.
Although Xu Qingqing paid for everything, judging from the final result, it was definitely Xu Qingqing who made the profit. After all, these connections cannot be bought with money.
Seeing that everyone was a little tired from shopping, Xu Qingqing took the lead and led everyone to the rest area on the second floor.
The rest area is located deep inside the store and is cleverly separated from the shopping area by an exquisite screen.
If we say that Xu Qingqing was restrained in the layout of Ya Ming Xuan and all the layouts on the second floor that we had seen before, then the rest area in the luxury area on the second floor can be said to be Xu Qingqing's showpiece.
The screen is painted with delicate oriental landscape patterns, with smooth lines and elegant colors, as if bringing customers into a peaceful landscape. Through the screen, you can vaguely see the busy scene of the shopping area, but the screen's shielding makes people feel a sense of comfort of "separation without separation".
On both sides of the screen stood two pretty maids wearing newly designed clothes and a handsome young man. They smiled and quietly served every distinguished customer.
The layout of the rest area is full of oriental charm and modern comfort. The floor is covered with soft carpets made of top-grade wool, with delicate and intricate hand-woven patterns. Every step is like walking on soft clouds.
There are several ink paintings hanging on the walls around. The mountains, rivers, flowers and birds in the paintings are lifelike, making people feel as if they are in the embrace of nature.
A set of comfortable sofas and coffee tables are placed in the center of the lounge area. The sofas are made of high-grade silk fabrics, which are soft to the touch and make you feel like you are wrapped in clouds when you sit on them.
The coffee table is carved from a whole piece of jade. It is as smooth as jade and has a flowing luster. It is filled with exquisite tea sets and snacks, each of which is a carefully selected treasure.
In the corner of the rest area, there are several pots of precious flowers and green plants. These plants are not only rare, but also carefully maintained. Every leaf is emerald green, every flower is delicate and beautiful, exuding a faint fragrance, making people feel as if they are in a garden.
The candlelight design is even more ingenious. Soft candlelight sprinkles from the crystal chandelier on the ceiling, illuminating the entire lounge area without being glaring. Each chandelier is made of top-grade crystal, crystal clear and dazzling. At the same time, there are soft wall lamps and table lamps dotted around, creating a warm and romantic atmosphere.
The choice of background music is also exquisite. Soft classical music and modern light music are intertwined, with both oriental charm and modern comfort. Every note seems to be carefully selected and arranged, allowing people to relax and enjoy a moment of tranquility and luxury during their rest.
That’s right, the reason why it is said to be Xu Qingqing’s showmanship is because Xu Qingqing used a lot of modern equipment in this rest area.
For example, there are record players, crystal chandeliers, and even modern model shows.
The entire rest area is a space that combines luxury, dignity and comfort.
Everything before their eyes could be said to have shocked everyone who had been shocked all the way before once again.
I really want to open Xu Qingqing's brain and see what's going on in her mind.
How can you come up with so many novel things!!!
The night falls and the lanterns come on.
Xu Qingqing, County Magistrate Zhang and others sat around an exquisite wooden table, enjoying their meal.
The restaurant is filled with a light scent of sandalwood, intertwined with the aroma of the food.
The dishes were served one by one, each with bright colors and fragrant aroma. There was fresh and delicious fish soup, soft and fragrant roasted meat, and refreshing seasonal vegetables. Each dish was carefully cooked, with just the right taste, leaving people with endless aftertaste.
During the meal, Xu Qingqing chatted with Zhang Zhixian and others from time to time, talking about local customs and poetry.
Their joyful laughter echoed in the restaurant, interweaving with the chirping of insects outside the window and the sound of the wind in the distance, forming a harmonious and beautiful picture.
Magistrate Zhang raised his glass to Xu Qingqing and said, "Miss Xu, we are so lucky to have you invite us today. Everything about Xiaoyao is admirable!"
Xu Qingqing smiled softly and replied, "Master Zhang, you are too kind. It is my honor to be able to gather with you all today and talk about world affairs."
A young man next to her also interrupted and said, "Miss Xu is not only talented, but also cares about the world. She is truly a role model for our generation. Every one of your poems and songs is amazing. You are truly a talented woman of our time."
Xu Qingqing waved her hands modestly: "My Lords, you are too kind to praise me. I am only a little knowledgeable in literature, so how can I be called a talented woman? My Lords, it is the one who governs a place and eliminates harm for the people that is the real hero."
Magistrate Zhang nodded and agreed: "Mr. Xu is right. As officials, we should put the people first and work for their well-being. However, Miss Xu, you are not only so accomplished in literature, but also very successful in business. It is really admirable."
Xu Qingqing smiled and said modestly: "It was just luck. How can I deserve the title of 'prosperous'? I just tried my best to contribute to the prosperity of the country."
As the topic deepened, everyone's admiration for Xu Qingqing grew stronger.
After everyone had rested, County Magistrate Zhang and others planned to return home.
Madam Zhang took Xu Qingqing's hand and said, "Sister, if you need any help, just tell me. Although our Northern Frontier is a remote place, I will definitely do my best to help you."
Xu Qingqing was deeply grateful when she heard this.
She knew that it was a blessing to receive support and help from Magistrate Zhang and Mrs. Zhang in this strange place. She quickly expressed her gratitude: "Thank you for your kindness, sister and adults. If Qingqing needs anything, she will definitely ask for help from you."
