Datang: My apprentice is Li Chengqian

Chapter 71 Shocking Results

The location of Zhengji Cosmetic Powder Shop in Dongshi is relatively good.

Normally, this would naturally attract more people.

However, on today's occasion, it also attracted more people who eat melons.

Some customers who were going to buy cosmetics or soap also stopped and watched.

When everyone heard that the woman with acne all over her face suggested that shopkeeper Zheng randomly take out a bottle of cosmetic powder from Zheng Ji's cosmetic powder shop to test whether it is poisonous, they all felt that the show became more and more interesting.

What kind of confidence does this woman have to dare to make such a request?

"Okay! Song Shan, go to the shop and get a bottle of makeup powder! This time, if you can't prove that our Zhengji makeup powder is poisonous, then don't blame us for being rude!

The Zheng family in Xingyang is definitely not something that anyone can insult casually. "

Shopkeeper Zheng struggled for a few seconds, then looked at the growing crowd, and felt that it was better to weaken his momentum.

If he disagrees with that woman's suggestion at this time, many people may really think that there is something wrong with Zheng Ji's makeup.

Otherwise, why don't you dare to let people do an experiment in front of everyone?

Soon, Song Shan went to take out a bottle of the best-selling cosmetic powder from the shop.

After the woman took the makeup, a weird smile appeared on her face.

She held the bottle of powder in one hand, walked around in front of the crowd, and kept saying: "Everyone must be a witness, this is the powder that was just taken out of Zheng Ji's powder shop.

If I remember correctly, this should be the best-selling powder in their powder shop, and many female relatives in Chang'an City should have used it. "

"That's right, our girl is using this one now!"

Among the crowd, Ru Hua also squeezed to the front, looking at the scene in front of her with excitement.

Back at Tianxiang Pavilion today, I have something to brag about to everyone again.

"It is indeed the best powder sold in Zhengji powder shop, and the price of a bottle has reached the usual price."

Among the crowd, there are other people who know the goods talking there.

"Now that everyone has seen it clearly, our experiment is about to start, and everyone must see it clearly."

After saying this, the woman opened the bottle of makeup powder and began to pour the duck in the hands of her companion next to her.

They obviously came prepared today.

Soon, with the cooperation of several people, the bottle of powder entered the duck's stomach.

There is a saying in later generations called duck-feeding education. Why is it duck-feeding instead of chicken or dog-feeding?
That's because ducks are the most suitable animals to passively feed food to them.

For example, in the place where the livestock is sold in the West Market, the duck sellers must manually stuff some food into the duck's mouth every morning.

This will make the duck appear heavier.

There are even some over-the-top merchants who can directly stuff three or four taels of food into a duck.

Even if it's stuffed with rice, it's a good deal.

After all, no matter how cheap duck meat is, it is more expensive than rice.

"If you feed this powder to ducks, will it prove that our powder is poisonous? It's just a joke?"

Shopkeeper Zheng breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the duck was still alive and kicking after eating a bottle of powder.

"Everyone can see clearly that the bottle of powder has been stuffed into the duck's belly just now. After a while, let's see how the duck will react."

The woman had a confident face.

She found that the current scene was developing completely according to what others told her in advance, and she was immediately full of confidence in the subsequent situation.

Qin Fugui promised them yesterday that as long as everything goes well today, he will pay each of them an additional five pennies.

This is enough for their expenses for a whole year.

"With so many people gathered in front of the shop, how do you want us to do business? It's not that you deliberately created some experimental gimmick, and then influence our business there?"

Looking at the energetic duck on the ground, Shopkeeper Zheng's confidence also increased.

He obviously firmly believes that there is nothing wrong with his own powder.

He looked at it very seriously just now, the other party really used his own makeup and didn't do anything wrong.

That would put him at ease.

"A quarter of an hour! No more than a quarter of an hour! If everyone can't make an accurate judgment at that time, then it's killing or cutting, and we will let you handle it."

Shopkeeper Zheng and the woman exchanged each other with each other, wanting the scene to proceed according to their own rhythm.

"Look, did the duck stagger a bit?"

Suddenly, a loud voice rang out from the crowd.

Soon, other people immediately said: "It seems to be about to fall."

At this time, everyone's attention was turned to the duck.

"fall down!"

"It really fell!"

After a while, the duck became unable to stand still.

Obviously, after the fat powder full of lead powder entered its stomach, it had already started to attack.

A duck weighs only two catties.

At least one tael of lead powder that has just been stuffed in, um, it's a powder, how can it stand it?

Being able to support it until now is already considered amazing.

After all, lead powder is just lead powder, not arsenic, let alone potassium cyanide.

"Impossible! Impossible! How could something happen?"

Unlike the excited expressions of the melon-eating crowd, shopkeeper Zheng turned pale.

The duck fell right under his nose.

At this time, regardless of whether it was really because of eating his own makeup, Zheng Ji's makeup shop was in trouble.

"Everyone saw it! The duck was poisoned to death just like eating poison.

We said that Zheng Ji's makeup powder is poisonous, but they still don't admit it. Now everyone sees it clearly, right?

If anyone feels that the scene just now can't fully explain the problem, they can also take out their own powder after returning home and stuff it for ducks to see if something really happens. "

A smug smile appeared on the woman's face, and she began to incite the emotions of the melon-eating crowd.

"If this powder is really poisonous, wouldn't it be disfiguring if we put it on our face every day?"

"My God! I spent so much money on makeup and ended up with toxic makeup."

"Zheng Ji's makeup shop sells poisonous makeup!"

"Zheng Ji makeup shop, an unscrupulous merchant, give me back my face!"

"It's outrageous, in order to earn money by any means, Zheng Ji makeup shop, give me an explanation!"

Soon, the scene that shopkeeper Zheng saw at the beginning began to appear again.

Among the crowd, some voices began to shout these slogans.

Soon, some angry melon eaters also shouted.

Seeing that everyone's emotions were mobilized, the woman waved her fist and rushed into the makeup shop shouting, demanding a refund and compensation.

Some people simply shouted to eliminate harm for the people and smash those poisonous powders.
