I'm in the Red Mansion

Chapter 76 Lin Daiyu, Flower Fairy

When Lin Daiyu heard Jia Cong say that he wanted to make money by making foundation, she did not look down on him at all. Instead, she stood in Jia Cong's shoes and considered him.

Lin Daiyu couldn't help but ask, "Third Brother Cong, the foundation market is basically occupied by those old brands."

"Even if you can develop new products, how can you compete with those old brands?"

Hearing this, Jia Cong smiled and said, "Sister Lin, this is a secret. It doesn't matter if I tell you, just don't tell anyone."

Without waiting for Lin Daiyu to refuse, Jia Cong said, "All the high-quality foundations popular on the market are made of lead powder."

"Lead powder is toxic and long-term use can cause great harm to the human body."

"And the new foundation I'm going to develop doesn't use lead powder as a raw material."

"One is toxic and the other is non-toxic. If they are really developed, are you still worried that there will be no market for it?"

Hearing this, Lin Daiyu's eyes lit up.

She couldn't help but say, "Third Brother Cong, your ideas are indeed unique."

"If we can really succeed, we will definitely be the best!"

"By the way, is this the debugging product you prepared?"

Jia Cong nodded and said, "This taste is too light and not suitable for me. I plan to try it a few more times."

It is normal for an experiment to fail dozens or even hundreds of times.

It is said that the 502 glue of later generations was successfully tested on the 501nd time after 502 failures.

Therefore, there are no shortcuts in experimentation.

At this time, Lin Daiyu picked up the failed product prepared by Jia Cong and put it to her nose and sniffed it a few times.

Then he closed his eyes and carefully identified it for a while, then pointed to one of the bottles of bark extract and said, "Third Brother Cong, if I'm not mistaken, you should have dropped a few more drops of the stuff in this bottle, maybe three or five drops at most."

Lin Daiyu's performance left Jia Cong dumbfounded.

Oh my god, do you think you have a dog's nose and can smell it out just by sniffing? Is it because three or five more drops of a certain raw material were used?
Jia Cong instinctively didn't believe it, but he didn't want to offend Lin Daiyu.

He had no choice but to mix it again, and this time, he really put in four drops less of bark extract.

After the mixing was completed, Jia Cong smelled it and was stunned!

This taste is just right!

This, this is truly amazing!

Lin Daiyu’s nose is simply - a fairy’s nose!

Jia Cong couldn't help but said in surprise: "Sister Lin, your sense of smell is really amazing! How did you do it?"

Lin Daiyu smiled and said, "I have loved flowers since I was a child. I can smell even the slightest difference in the fragrance of flowers."

"Just now, when I saw Third Brother Cong was in trouble, I thought of giving it a try. I didn't expect that I could really help Third Brother Cong. It was a pleasant surprise!"

This must be a pleasant surprise! It must be a pleasant surprise!
Lin Meimei, you are my biggest surprise!
If Lin Daiyu were to join this blending experiment, the time required for the experiment would be greatly shortened.

And more than that, only women understand women better.

Moreover, Lin Daiyu has such a keen sense of smell. Wouldn't it be the best use of people and resources to let her develop new products in the future?
Thinking of this, Jia Cong could not help but say: "Sister Lin is indeed the reincarnation of a fairy from heaven, a flower fairy descended to earth! She is truly a figure among the gods."

"Sister Lin, let's make a deal. How about you join us? Once our new products are launched on the market, I will definitely give you a share."

Jia Cong told Lin Daiyu that he would leave her a share, not 10% of the shares. In fact, it was impossible to give her 10% of the shares.

Lin Daiyu did not even ask how Jia Cong was treated. She simply shook her head and said, "Brother Cong, please stop joking."

"If you ask me for help, I will be happy to help you, but how can you ask me to join in?"

"How can a woman do such things? This is absolutely unacceptable. Please don't mention this matter again, Third Brother Cong."

Lin Daiyu is not a good girl, she has a rebellious spirit.

In fact, from her words and actions just now, Jia Cong could see that she was actually very interested in it.

However, in the end, I had too many concerns and did not dare to agree to it.

But it would be impossible to say that she was not moved at all.

Thinking of this, Jia Cong continued, "Sister Lin, who says women can't accomplish anything?"

"In ancient times, there was Hua Mulan who joined the army to replace her father. There are countless talented women like her."

"Doesn't Miss Lin want to make a career? When people talk about rouge and powder, they will have to mention Miss Lin's name."

Lin Daiyu quickly shook her head and said, "Not right, not right. Girls should always behave themselves."

"How can one be so prominent and have one's name known to everyone?"

Jia Cong hurriedly continued to persuade her: "Sister Lin, if you don't want to be famous, this is actually very simple."

"You don't need to show up in public. You just need to help me analyze some ingredients at the critical moment."

"Also, Sister Lin has a keen sense of smell, so when developing new products in the future, we will definitely need Sister Lin's help."

"You don't need to do anything else that would expose you to the public. If you don't want to be famous, your name won't be known to outsiders."

"I wonder what Sister Lin thinks?"

Jia Cong could clearly feel that Lin Daiyu should be moved, but she was still hesitant.

Lin Daiyu asked again: "Brother Cong, I can help you with all these. There is no need for me to join in."

"These things are just trivial things that can be done easily, and they are not worth much."

Jia Cong said sternly, "Sister Lin, if you don't join me, I will never dare to use you in the future."

"It's a favor to ask for your help once or twice, but it doesn't make sense for me to bother you for help every day. If I do that, not only will we lose the favor between us, but we may even become enemies."

"Sister Lin, why don't you go back and think about it carefully, and then tell me your final decision."

"In fact, I don't need you to do much, nor do I need you to show up in public, nor will I make you famous."

"If you want to quit, you can quit at any time. You are free to come and go. I don't know what Sister Lin has to worry about?"

After Jia Cong finished speaking, Lin Daiyu looked conflicted and unable to make a decision.

After a long while, she finally said, "Third Brother Cong, let me go back and think about it carefully. I will come back and tell you when I have thought it through."

Jia Cong nodded and said, "Okay, then I'll wait for Sister Lin's letter."

After sending Lin Daiyu away, Jia Cong couldn't help but smile slightly.

He felt that the probability of Lin Daiyu joining in was at least 80%.
