Chapter 1903
Mountain God 7
"welcome!"
Mao Lianlian and all the employees welcomed the county magistrate and his family at the entrance of the resort.
When the county magistrate's wife saw Mao Lianlian and the other women, she frowned, as if she were treating the manor like a brothel.
But after thinking about it, he realized that brothels couldn't possibly entertain women, and his brow relaxed slightly.
Mao Lianlian led the group into the mountain villa and arranged accommodations for them.
Mao Lianlian: "Would you all like to soak in the hot springs first or rest first?"
After discussing it, the county magistrate and his family decided to rest first and then soak in the hot springs after dinner.
Mao Lianlian introduced them to the chess club, the qin pavilion, and the calligraphy and painting room.
The county magistrate was very interested in playing chess and went to the chess club.
The county magistrate's daughter went to the Qin Pavilion, eager to learn the qin (a seven-stringed zither). However, due to limitations, she couldn't find a skilled qin player—men and women were strictly separated, and a man who knew the qin couldn't possibly teach the young ladies of the inner court.
The county magistrate's son went to the calligraphy and painting shop.
When the county magistrate's wife heard that all three places had young and beautiful female managers, she worried that the magistrate would be bewitched by the beauties and have another woman in his harem. So she followed the magistrate to the chess club.
She stayed close to the county magistrate, watching him play chess with the chess club's manager, Siqi, and then yawned.
The county magistrate's wife, who knew nothing about chess, watched the game with boredom.
However, seeing that her husband was focused on the chessboard and that Siqi did not make any seductive moves, she felt relieved.
She left the chess club and went to the calligraphy and painting club. Seeing her son sitting by the window painting, she felt relieved.
When I went to the Qin Pavilion, I saw the manager there teaching his daughter to play the qin.
Baoqin taught diligently, and his daughter also studied diligently, having already mastered some basics.
The county magistrate's wife wondered if she should invite Baoqin to her home to teach her daughter, and let Qi be her daughter's tutor.
Mao Lianlian walked over: "Madam, are you bored? Would you like to try our spa packages?"
"Silk Pad Set Meal? What's that? Is it one of your local specialties? But I'm not hungry right now."
Mao laughed and said, "It's massage and beauty treatments!"
The county magistrate's wife: "??"
Mao Lianlian took the county magistrate's wife to experience a spa.
The beauty products in the resort are all made from pure natural plants. Needless to say, they are effective and have no side effects.
Dan Qing even guided the little demons to make essential oils!
It's said that all the little demons of Daqingshan are incredibly talented!
Before, without anyone to guide them, they just lazed around and waited to die. If no one were to restrain them, they might be tempted to go down the evil path of cannibalism or draining people's life force.
Now, with Shan Qing's guidance—and Liu Dong's secret guidance—each of the little demons has developed a special talent, and several have grown into outstanding chemical engineering talents, oh, no, demon talents!
The little demons of Daqingshan all have professional jobs to do, so it's a waste of their talents to have them do service work in the manor.
Moreover, they are very busy and cannot find time to work at the resort.
The mountain resort was still short of people, so Huangfu You went to the county town to find brokers and bought some young girls and boys.
Shan Qing provided these people with professional training, teaching them not only etiquette for receiving customers but also massage techniques.
These young men and women naturally didn't know Shan Qing's identity, nor did they know that the beautiful ladies in the manor weren't human.
They worked hard to learn the skills, hoping to stay at the resort for a long time.
The living conditions here are so good. We have new clothes to wear, enough to eat, and a monthly salary.
Compared to my previous life of poverty, this is paradise.
No one who enters the villa is willing to leave.
The county magistrate's wife lay on a specially made beauty bed, feeling a pair of soft hands massaging her face and body. She felt incredibly comfortable and fell asleep without realizing it.
When the technician finished the work, the county magistrate's wife's maidservant went up to wake her up.
The county magistrate's wife felt completely relaxed.
She touched her face and body, finding them smooth and soft to the touch, and even noticing that the wrinkles around her eyes had diminished considerably. The magistrate's wife was overjoyed.
Not only did I enjoy using this silk handkerchief, but it also made my skin look better. I will definitely come here often in the future!
After being dressed with the help of her maid, the county magistrate's wife was led into a room where a woman claiming to be a makeup artist came to apply her makeup.
The county magistrate's wife had her own maid who did her makeup, but her previous experience with the silk handkerchief had surprised her, and she wanted to see if she would like this kind of makeup as well, so she nodded in agreement.
The makeup artist opened the makeup box, and the cosmetics inside made the county magistrate's wife's eyes widen.
Is this some kind of rouge? Why are there so many colors?
The makeup artist introduced the products to the county magistrate's wife: "This is rouge, this is lipstick, this is eyeshadow..."
Actually, the variety and colors inside the box are not many; compared to modern ones, they can only be described as pitifully few.
But in ancient times, these colors were already incredibly diverse!
There was no other way; ancient technology was simply too backward.
The fact that the villa has so many colors is thanks to the "cheating" of sorcery.
The county magistrate's wife was filled with anticipation when she saw these cosmetics and wanted to do her makeup.
She closed her eyes and let the makeup artist work on her face.
As the makeup artist worked, she heard the gasp of the maid beside her.
What happened? Did the makeup artist make her look ugly?
"That's enough!" The makeup artist stopped what she was doing.
The county magistrate's wife immediately looked in the mirror.
The mirrors in the villa are bronze mirrors—they've really run out of material to make glass—but they're polished so smooth that they can clearly reflect a person's face.
The county magistrate's wife also gasped.
Is the person in the mirror her?
Is this woman, who looks to be in her early twenties, really her?
Yes, upon closer inspection, the facial features are indeed her own, but she looks much younger and more refined.
Moreover, it looks like she's not wearing any makeup at all!
Could this be some kind of magical or demonic magic?
He glanced at the maid behind him and dismissed the above idea.
The maid watched the whole thing.
The magistrate's wife said, "Would you like to come to my residence to do my makeup? I'll pay you more than you would here."
The makeup artist refused.
Are you kidding me? Go work as a servant in the county magistrate's office?
She doesn't want it!
Although they were bought by the owner of the manor, the owner did not treat them as servants, but instead worked hard to cultivate them and gave them freedom, allowing them to go wherever they wanted.
Makeup artist: "You can send someone to learn from us and buy cosmetics produced at the resort. That will give you this kind of effect."
The county magistrate's wife immediately ordered her maid, who was in charge of her makeup, to learn makeup techniques from a makeup artist.
Of course, learning comes at a price, and it's not cheap.
The cosmetics are also very expensive, since you can't buy them anywhere else.
The total cost was more than half of what the county magistrate's family spent on a single trip to the hot spring resort.
But the county magistrate's wife gave him the money without even blinking.
Women are very willing to spend money to stay young and beautiful. (End of Chapter)
