Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Before the release of The Lion King, most people did not know what a lion was. The stage play educated everyone on what the world of lions was like.
Since children loved watching such plays, their parents would bring them to the Grand Theater to watch.
Moreover, everyone had extra money after Tenghe Town and Su Teng Village’s improvements. Hence, the parents were willing to buy tickets for their children. People would even watch shows and go shopping during their off days.
There were several performances of The Lion King throughout the day. In between shows, people would advertise their products on stage.
“Let me tell you all about my beauty mask. We made it using pearl powder, and it’s excellent for your skin. You can apply some to your face and leave it on for fifteen minutes before washing it off. It’ll make your skin fairer and more beautiful for longer. Allow me to demonstrate.”
Someone soon went on stage and applied the facial mask. After washing it off, the audience noticed a significant improvement on the person’s face—it had become smoother and fairer.
Everyone thought it was magical when they saw it.
“Such a thing exists?!”
“Twenty copper for a box isn’t too expensive, especially since it can last a month.”
“Yeah, I thought the pearl necklaces were good, but now there’s a face mask made with pearls. It must be just as good.”
“Yeah, Her Highness invented this facial product, so it must be good, right? I want to buy one.”
“Yeah, me, too!”
The host then told the audience that they could buy the facial masks backstage once The Lion King performance ended. Even so, it was a limited edition because the factory had just launched the product.
Previously, Su Binglan had cooperated with Teng Sushui to open a pearl factory. Although they began making pearl necklaces, they also tinkered with the pearls to make facial masks and other skincare products.
After inventing and developing the facial mask, Su Binglan gave them to her family first. Everyone felt better after using it as their skin became supple and delicate.
Afterward, Su Binglan made some more and prepared to open a facial mask factory. The factory would then use the pearl extract to make facial masks and skincare lotions.
She believed these products would be popular once she introduced them to the market. Whenever she had time, she would go to the mountains to find something she could use to make other facial masks.
Ultimately, Su Binglan found herbs and plants to use for her facial products. She even planned to make medicinal makeup. Afterward, she could set up cosmetic chain stores in various places to sell her products.
Su Binglan could then teach women to care for their skin and become even more beautiful.
Zi Die said, “Being a member of the Su family has its benefits. You can use all the new stuff before anyone else.”
She had been using the pearl facial mask for a few days and felt her skin was smoother and more delicate. She even wore a pearl necklace that Su Binglan had gifted her.
“Teng Sushui said that there are plenty of pearls on her parents’ island. I don’t know what the island looks like, but it sounds completely different from our village.” Zi Die was referencing Su Wenxian’s wife.
Su Wenxiu said, “Sushui said that her cooperation with Binglan has brought many benefits to her island. Sushui even invited Binglan to check out the island, but Binglan still can’t find the time to visit. I reckon she’ll go there when she’s free.”
