Chapter 22 Leading the fashion is the royal family
Because of his lazy nature, Xu Qilin doesn't want to make toys too delicate and complicated.
What's more, this is just a display effect, a small sample of flattery and cheating money, so there is no need to be too serious.
The first flight took some time. If you want to be skillful, Xu Qilin can type a hundred characters in one minute with smart pinyin, but he is not so skillful in doing this manual work.
However, it was much faster when making the second flight, and practice made perfection was indeed not a scam.
Walking to the window with a little excitement, Xu Qilin raised the first telescope in world history.
He carefully adjusted the direction and focal length, and slowly saw the scenery in the distance. No, it was a person. It was Xiao Zhao, who was walking towards this side.
Xu Qilin raised his face slightly and looked at his pretty face getting closer and closer. He was so cute.
Xiao Zhao stepped into the house and saw his second brother smiling and holding a cylinder to look at him. He couldn't help but giggle and pounce on him, shouting, "Brother!"
Well, it’s acceptable to call it that way, but don’t be too coquettish. The sweet and greasy call of “Ge Ge” is really dizzy.
"What is this?" Xiao Zhao jumped onto his brother and asked curiously while snatching the cylindrical thing in his hand.
Xu Qilin didn't want to hide it at first, but when he saw the girl discover it, he smiled and said, "This is a gift from me. I just made it, but you're a coincidence."
Xiao Zhao hurriedly reached out to take it, fiddled with it in his hand for a few times, not knowing how to use it.
Xu Qilin raised the telescope and made a lookout position. He pulled the two pieces of paper tubes with his hand and smiled, "This is called a telescope, which can bring things in the distance closer and make it clearer." After saying that, he handed it to the girl and reminded him, "Don't take it wrong, otherwise it will be farther and farther. It's dark at night and it's interesting to see during the day!"
Xiao Zhao snatched it again, followed Xu Qilin's appearance, raised the telescope, put his eyes on it, and glanced at the outside.
"Yeah? Yeah!" Xiao Zhao made a shocking sound, pulling the paper tube, probably adjusting the focus, and laughing happily, "It's so interesting! Look at that servant, clumsy, haha... Hey, who is that little girl..."
"That's the maid I found for you. I'm about the same age and can play with you!" Xu Qilin laughed happily when he saw the girl coaxing her.
"I have a playmate, I have a little maid!" Xiao Zhao cried and suddenly turned around, and mischievously pointed the telescope at Xu Qilin. Xu Qilin laughed and made a sudden face.
Grizzly, Xiao Zhao smiled crisply, put down the telescope, and her bright eyes bent into crescent moons.
The brother and sister laughed for a while before they talked about the serious matter.
"How was the time I was having fun in the palace today? Did you ask me?" Xu Qilin stretched out his finger and gently flicked the girl's baby's fat face.
Xiao Zhao lit his head and said, "Sister asked you what you are doing at home, are you not doing your job?"
"What did you say?" Xu Qilin rolled his eyes, but his sister still didn't believe in the big career she was doing.
"I said—" Xiao Zhao deliberately paused for a moment, and smiled slyly: "You went to Zhuangzi to play, and you never read and write."
Xu Qilin touched the girl's little head hard and smiled, "Bad girl, I'll give me the gift, so you won't say good things to me."
"No." Xiao Zhao held it firmly, raised it like a demonstration, and knocked his brother on the head, saying, "I'm angry, I'll ask you to go to the palace to see her in the past two days."
Xu Qilin blinked and asked in confusion: "Is it true or false?"
Xiao Zhao slapped his eyes and said with a smile: "The front is fake, the back is real. My sister was not angry either when I said good things. But she asked you to enter the palace, but it was real."
"What are you doing when you enter the palace?" Xu Qilin frowned slightly and said, "Aren't you comparing with poetry and articles again?"
Xiao Zhao shook his head and said, "Then I don't know. You came back early. If it was two days late, I would be really angry!"
Xu Qilin scratched his head, not sure why it was because it would take several days for the big business to be completed. I would be afraid that it would not be possible if I delayed it.
"Do you want me to accompany me?" Xiao Zhao said understandingly when he saw his brother in a dilemma.
Xu Qilin looked at the little sister, laughed, and reached out to give her a "head touch kill", "I'm not that bad, I want you, a little boy, to be brave."
"Oh!" Xiao Zhao knocked Xu Qilin with a telescope, pouting and said angrily: "It messed up all her hair."
Xu Qilin didn't block it, and it didn't hurt to knock it anyway. He just kept laughing and shivered Lengzi and touched the little girl's hair again.
…………………
It was afternoon again, and the hot feeling made Xu Qilin feel very uncomfortable, but when the old sister called him, he still went to the palace with the sun.
In his opinion, although he was young, it was not so inconvenient to enter and exit the palace. However, in the morning, there were many officials and ministers and servants accompanying him. My sister must have tried to avoid other people's attention.
Xu Qilin has made several perfumes, namely osmanthus, jasmine, sandalwood, musk, and citrus.
The perfume bottle customized in the porcelain kiln is also unique and looks flat and cylindrical. The back of the bottle is a fragrance mark, and there is a poem at the front: The wind blows the fragrance all over the sky.
The plugs made of cork have also been processed and carved into the shape of flowers.
Not to mention perfume, just looking at this styling design is enough to attract attention. As for packaging, Xu Qilin certainly knows the importance of it.
Giving my sister perfume is not just about flattering and pleasing, but Xu Qilin also has another meaning.
You should know that the Tang people, or women in the Tang Dynasty, pursue fashion very much. All fashion in the Tang Dynasty began in Chang'an.
A timely proverb in Chang'an: "The city is full of high buns, one foot tall in all directions. The city is full of eyebrows, half-brow. The city is full of big sleeves, and full of silk in all directions."
From a fashion perspective, it is a wonderful example that Chang'an is not only the political and cultural center of the Tang Dynasty, but also the fashion capital.
Many fashions are spread from the palace, for example, the main trend of clothing is like this. From cover to exposure; from simplicity to complexity; from simplicity to luxury; from elegant to plump.
For example, when Princess Taiping attended the inner banquet of Emperor Gaozong of Tang, she not only dressed in men's clothes, but also was fully armed, which made Emperor Gaozong of Tang and Wu Zetian laugh endlessly, which caused the craze for women to become men's clothes.
Due to the production of perfume, Xu Qilin has designated it as a luxury product. In fact, he wants to make huge profits.
Therefore, it is still very feasible to introduce the perfume to the palace, from the elder sister to other concubines, and then to hype and build a brand.
