After accompanying Lin'er to eat lunch, he gave the child to his father and led Lv Yun to Linlang Workshop.
The Linlang Workshop s were still closed, and since the Great Surge once again started operating, the business became better and better every day, and the Liuli Workshop s next door, because of the appearance of the young ladies, had already started dancing in ice, which also attracted an endless stream of guests.
Jin Xiaolou planned to turn her Liuli Workshop into a Star Creation Factory, and the first round of stars she would build would be the twelve girls in this factory.
Tonight was their first knockout match.
The advertisement had already been posted on the busiest, busiest, street of Xuanwu Street in Beijing for a whole day. Jin Xiaolou believed that no one in the entire capital could reject such an innovative method.
And just as she had expected, just as noon had passed, there were already many people outside the Liuli Workshop, eagerly waiting for the gate to open.
Jin Xiaolou calmly walked towards the third floor of Linlang Workshop and found a wet clothes that was in the middle of cooking a bowl of milk soup.
The rich aroma of the milk made Jin Xiaolou and Lv Yun's throats tighten as they entered the room, and their saliva started to flow uncontrollably.
”Big sister in wet clothes is working on a new recipe?” Like a grasshopper, Lv Yun jumped to the side of the stove in an instant, filled with interest.
The wet clothes nodded, picked up a spoon to scoop up a bit, blew on it, and brought it to the wet clothes lips: ”You try the taste.”
”Yes, yes, yes!” Lv Yun's eyes were so blissful that stars were about to pop out, ”Delicious! With this sweet water pushed out, the threshold of our Linlang Workshop will be stepped on again. ”
Jin Xiaolou followed the two little girls and laughed for a while, then said: ”I have a new recipe, Tidal Robe. I'll give it to you, make it before the Profound Star Creation Competition tonight, and it will be the first snack in the Liuli Workshop.”
”Alright.” The wet clothes stirred the milk soup in the stove, and the voice responded, ”What is it?”
”Cane Fruit Jelly!” ”I have already sent people to deliver the Kaunitz and the Honeysuckle to the workshop, but I'm afraid that it's already been dealt with. Let's make two flavors first, the Honeysuckle and the Sweet Orchid, and then see how the effects will be added.”
”The pineapple jelly? What is that? ” Lv Yun's face was full of curiosity and expectation.
”The kookaburra is a plant whose ground powder can be made into a kind of... ”Hmm …” It's crystal clear and very flexible. ” Jin Xiaolou thought for a moment, then continued, ”We will add the water from the gold-silver flower bubble, the juice from the sweet oranges, and some honey to taste. After mixing them, we will freeze them in the ice cellar, and it will be done.”
After that, the three of them went to the small kitchen and started to prepare the kookaburra fruit jelly for the Star Forging Competition that would take place during the evening.
The tickets to the Star Forging Competition were very cheap. They only cost one tael of silver. For a place where officials and dignitaries gathered, it was almost free of charge.
The reason why Jin Xiaolou set such a cheap ticket price was to create momentum and attract more citizens to participate in this competition, to make the people into stars!
Only the stars that are created like this can make people angry. Otherwise, how could they be called stars?
The Star Forging Competition was divided into eleven stages. Every single time, the ladies of the Liuli Workshop would perform a specified type of talent, and then, based on the votes of the guests below the stage, the one with the least votes would be eliminated.
The guests who voted would become the girl's fans during the next competition, and they would have the chance to vote for her next talent category. If the girl was eliminated, then according to the route of the Courtesan Belle selection, the fans on the spot would throw away their money, and the eliminated girl could choose one of the top ten guests on the Golden Ranking that was pleasing to look at and follow him.
Therefore, every Star Forging Competition was divided into two parts. The first half was to choose a star, while the second half was to earn money.
Furthermore, to be able to spend so much money to get into the top ten of the Golden Ranking, that must mean that they were both rich and honorable. The servant girls entering those people's residences was the third step for Jin Xiaolou, to find out the news.
Jin Xiaolou would make the best out of the twelve girls and would send her to the Linlang Workshop to perform at the top of the stage. She would ask the best painter to make all kinds of advertisements for her and put her portraits up in the streets and alleys of the capital.
At that time, he could earn another large sum of money from the advertising fee.
Jin Xiaolou was elated. She was glad that she was from the modern era, and that she was able to put all of the proven and popular entertainment methods into this simple and rigid entertainment industry.
Just as Jin Xiaolou had expected, once the Star Forging Competition started, it became extremely popular in the entire capital. Even the hawkers who walked the streets or the poor families who could not even afford a single silver coin did not go to watch the competition and continued to keep an eye on the competition.
There were even betting shops that opened, betting on which girl would be eliminated tonight.
Along with the Star Creation Competition, there was also the kookaburra jelly in the Liuli Workshop.
Jelly gradually increased from the first three flavors to the third one, and you could even make any taste that you could think of using Liuli Workshop.
In the daytime, when the Liuli Workshop was not open, there was a small window beside it, and he only sold Jelly.
Because it was fresh, delicious, and cheap, the people in line practically lined up from the Liuli Workshop gate all the way to the end of Golden Appendices Lane every day.
This was mostly a merry party for humans, causing the entire capital to be in high spirits. However, there were also a few people who were so popular that their eyes were red.
De's Shop Manager's Jin Xiaotao was the one who was the most envious.
