How I Pampered the Tyrant Into Devotion With My Space-Chapter 490: Taking Advantage, Aren’t You?

Moreover, with current technology, there’s actually no way to grind pearl powder very finely.

If you want to make the pearl powder finer, you have to create a dedicated machine for it.

But it can’t use electricity, only the grinding components, which must be precise.

So making it isn’t too difficult.

Therefore, when she came up with a semi-automatic grinding machine, the people of Liu’s were stunned.

"This... what is this?"

Pei Shu’er smiled, "It’s just a simple grinding machine that can help you produce pearl powder materials."

Now, the people of Liu’s were really convinced. How did Pei Shu’er’s brain grow to have so many ingenious ideas?

They couldn’t take this machine for free, though Pei Shu’er didn’t ask for money, she could be introduced to resources.

After Pei Shu’er left, Old Madam Liu immediately said, "Quick, find someone to check where to choose a location for the fabric shop."

She originally didn’t like Pei Shu’er, but the more she interacted with her, the more she found Pei Shu’er delightful.

She had met that boy Zan’er, and marrying such a daughter-in-law was truly worth it.

The next step was Pei Shu’er researching pearl skincare products.

In addition to pearl powder, it also had some medicinal ingredients added to enhance and improve the effect of the pearl powder.

Once the pearl softening water was made, Pei Shu’er gave a sample to Old Madam Liu, and she got a servant girl from the manor to try it.

A month later, the skin indeed became a bit fairer and more delicate.

And the effect was very obvious.

And this was just the effect of the pearl water.

It’s important to know that the pearl series is a complete set, and the final result is worth looking forward to.

When Pei Shu’er finished the pearl series, it took a full half month, during which time she was also constantly experimenting with blends.

Of course, when she had downtime, she didn’t forget about Pei’s other ventures.

Liu’s pearl series was completed, and the packaging was finalized, though there was some disagreement over it.

Old Madam Liu said, "Also add the Pei’s logo, at the bottom a bit, just not overshadowing."

Most of the Liu Family didn’t want to add it, and harbored resentment against Pei Shu’er.

"Why should we? This is our Liu family’s brand, adding Pei’s brand, what does that look like?"

Old Madam Liu didn’t listen to persuasion and simply said, "Add it, it’s just a package, after all, if you’re really worried, you can add Pei’s logo at the bottom of the bottle."

This way, it was resolved, but there was still a thorn in the heart.

Also, Pei Shu’er was unaware of this, otherwise, she wouldn’t be willing to add it.

But Old Madam Liu meant well, thinking since they used Pei Shu’er’s stuff, she didn’t take much commission, if they accepted her good without anything in return, that would be truly ungrateful.

But Old Madam Liu didn’t expect that it was precisely because of the Pei’s logo that their pearl series became a hot seller.

In fact, everyone’s perception of pearl cream had changed from initial admiration to later neglect.

The effect was not significant, it became harder to use the more it was used.

But there were still some nostalgic old customers who asked, "Is this skincare product made by that old Imperial Physician?"

Liu Zhang didn’t hide it: "It’s made by Pei’s Manager Pei, and their skincare products are all developed by her."

Upon hearing Pei’s reputation, customers who were initially indifferent suddenly lit up.

The price of pearl cream was slightly lower than Pei’s, so people bought it to try.

Upon trying it, they found that no matter the texture or scent, it was unbelievably good.

This news spread like wildfire to Liu’s, and people also turned over the bottle to see Pei’s logo, their eyes lighting up.

They had used Pei’s samples, which worked great, but weren’t they unaffordable?

So, this pearl series also became a substitute for Pei’s skincare products, and quite an effective one at that.

Some Liu Family members who previously opposed adding Pei’s logo couldn’t help but cough lightly.

"Perhaps, we should make Pei’s logo a bit bigger, right next to Liu’s?"

Old Madam Liu said, "Just do as was previously said, place it slightly below Liu’s and make it smaller."

That evening, the juniors of the Liu Family surrounded the old lady. 𝙧𝙚𝙚𝔀𝒆𝓫𝓷𝙤𝓿𝒆𝙡.𝒄𝙤𝓶

"Grandma, how about having Pei Shu’er and Liu Xu over for dinner tonight?"

Old Madam Liu looked at the juniors of the family, then at Pei Shu’er and Liu Xu, and nodded.

"Have the kitchen prepare, and send someone to deliver the invitation."

Everyone was secretly jubilant, and Old Madam Liu didn’t reveal what was on her mind, as long as no accidents happened.

When Pei Shu’er and Liu Xu arrived, those of the same generation, regardless of gender, were briefly stunned upon seeing Pei Shu’er.

After Old Madam Liu coughed lightly, they quickly regained their composure.

No matter how beautiful the beauty, staring like that made them no different from lechers.

After being seated, the elders of the Liu Family raised a glass, "For our Liu’s Rouge Shop to be revitalized, it’s all thanks to Shu’er. Uncle toasts you."

Pei Shu’er drank and responded with courteous words, smiling all the while.

She spoke gently and skillfully, changing some opinions people had of her.

In the end, an uncle spoke up.

"To be honest, Shu’er, the pearl skincare products are good now, but I’m worried that after some time, people might not like them anymore."

Pei Shu’er slowed her pace in eating, looked up with a slight smile, intending to decline.

The man, feeling encouraged, continued speaking.

"Originally, I was going to bring this up years later, but since you’re leaving Jiangnan soon, could we perhaps create a few more series like Pei’s? We’ll share the profits with you."

Old Madam Liu’s face darkened.

Liu Xu set down his chopsticks.

This was Liu Yang, son of Old Master Liu’s third concubine, managing a branch of the Liu’s Rouge Shop, not representing the family’s main interests.

Of course, many in the Liu Family were thinking the same way.

Liu Xu said, "Liu Yang, that’s not appropriate, not just for you—the whole Liu Family should understand that Shu’er developing the pearl skincare products was a lifesaver for us."

"Why are her commissions so low? She has a workshop, raw materials, and technology—she could earn a hundred percent on her own. You’re being greedy."

She couldn’t bear to see her daughter-in-law bullied.

Moreover, Shu’er, who usually acted tough, might agree out of respect this time.

That would really put her in a tough spot.

Liu Yang frowned, "I think Shu’er finds researching these things quite simple. I’m not asking her to do it for free; we would give her a commission."

Pei Shu’er looked up with a smile, "Sorry, Uncle, we don’t have much time here. We need to finish our tasks and leave soon."

After a pause, she added with a smile:

"Also, this pearl skincare line, at least for ten more years, won’t be outdated. The business might even get better."

Upon these words, the people at the table wore varied expressions.

Liu Yang’s smile faded.

They’re just a bunch of convicted criminals, is there a need to be so arrogant?

Do they still want face?
