Chapter 39 The Prince’s Blessing

Angel water was previously only popular within the Palace of Versailles, but after ladies and ladies tried it during this period, its miraculous effects have already spread throughout Paris.

Nowadays, no one in the entire aristocratic class of Paris knows about this magical cosmetic.

"Smooth acne in two days," "Smooth skin in five days," "Fade spots in one week," etc., are all proven by many people.

Especially the advertisement that started to appear on the front pages of major newspapers ten days ago, with only one line of large characters on the entire page - "Angel Water, you deserve it."

Simple and straightforward.

Like a sharp arrow, it hits every woman's heart. Yes, although the noble and luxurious angel water is expensive, I deserve a bottle!

If you turn to other pages of the newspaper, you can see the news about the grand opening of the Paris Angel store. It states that in the future, angel water will only be available in this store, and a large number of new products will be released here.

It is scheduled to officially open at 12 noon. People have gathered outside the store before dawn in the morning, peering through the completely transparent glass exterior wall to look at the products displayed inside.

Joseph frowned and looked at the streets that were crowded with people waiting to open a shop. Although he was the shop owner, he couldn't get close to the shop door at all...

It wasn't until Quesold ordered the guards to step down to maintain order that a narrow passage appeared on the Champs Elysées.

At 12 o'clock sharp, more than a dozen clerks who were over 1.8 meters tall, blond and blue-eyed, handsome in appearance, and wearing crisp bright red terry uniforms walked out of the Paris Angel store.

They stood in two neat rows at the entrance of the store filled with flowers. The band behind them played cheerful celebration music. Two slim girls pulled up a red ribbon with a flower ball in the middle and laid it across the front of the store.

The manager of the specialty store came to the front, bowed first, and then said loudly:

"I would like to invite the 'son of the gods' of Versailles, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of France, to cut the ribbon for our store!"

A burst of cheers suddenly erupted from the Champs Elysées. People just saw the royal guards maintaining order and guessed that someone important might be coming, but they didn't expect that the crown prince was coming in person.

Joseph, dressed in fine clothes, walked out of the store, waved to everyone, and announced loudly:

"Today, the first store of Paris Angel Company officially opened.

"The mission of Paris Angel is to allow every French woman to stay young and beautiful forever!

"I wish everyone a happy shopping!"

The crowd was restless and cheering again, and some fans even started shouting: "Long live the Crown Prince!"

Joseph took the scissors from the manager, cut the red ribbon in front of him, and then quickly "escaped" from the scene through the back door under the cover of Kesode.

There was nothing he could do. He was afraid that if he walked slower, he would be surrounded by those noble ladies with stars in their eyes and swallow them up.

Someone was throwing petals all over the place, and the manager smiled and signaled that everyone could enter the store to buy.

People were talking about the novel opening ceremony and poured into the store one after another. Almost instantly, the store with a total of more than 1,000 square meters on the upper and lower floors was crowded with customers, but there were also thousands of people gathered outside the store, anxiously waiting for people inside to come out.

A young girl with a tall figure and elegant curves, wearing a dark blue dress and a wide-brimmed hat with a gauze hanging from the edge to cover her face, looked at the crowds of people outside the Paris Angels store. She couldn't help but frown slightly and complained softly:

"Why are there so many people? If I had known earlier, I would have asked Mr. Balvito to buy it..."

She touched the almost indiscernible acne mark on her cheek, as if she had made up her mind.

A few days ago, one of her best friends gave her a small half bottle of "Angel Water," which is said to be the most popular skin care product at the moment. After only a few uses, her extremely troubled acne significantly subsided.

But that little bit of "angel water" was about to run out. For the sake of my pretty face, I would buy another bottle no matter what!

She took a look at the Paris Angel store, then moved her long legs and walked quickly towards the back of the store.

Joseph came out of the back door of the specialty store. The carriage was already waiting here. He was about to get on the carriage when he suddenly saw an eight or nine-year-old boy with disheveled hair and dirty body at the entrance of the alley. He was praying pitifully:

"Dear Sir and Madam, please reward me with a few coins."

The little boy glanced at the smaller girl leaning in the corner, and his voice became anxious:

"Please, for only 5 dennies, let me buy a 'Crown Prince's Blessing' for my sister! Please, she has been burning all day long..."

However, there were no pedestrians in this alley, and even if two people occasionally passed by in a hurry, they didn't even look at him.

Joseph walked over and put two silver coins in the broken jar held by the boy. The boy immediately knelt down excitedly and said in a choked voice:

"Thank you, sir, thank you! May God bless you!"

Kesode helped him up first.

Joseph said:

"It's nothing. Go and see your sister quickly. By the way, what is the 'Crown Prince's blessing' you just mentioned?"

The boy hurriedly said:

"Honorable sir, it's that little pill called Shui Yang or something like that. It can save lives, and it's very cheap. I heard that this medicine was invented by His Highness the Crown Prince, so everyone calls it 'The Crown Prince's Blessing'."

Joseph signaled to Eman, who immediately took a few pills of salicin - Joseph had also been using salicin to control his pneumonia.

"Is this the medicine?" Joseph handed the light yellow pill to the boy.

"Yes! This is it!" The boy was overjoyed. He leaned over and fed a pill into his sister's mouth. He also gave her some water and nodded vigorously at her. "Swallow it. You will feel less uncomfortable soon after swallowing it." "

When Joseph saw that he was about to kneel down again, he quickly supported him and asked:

 "where is your family?"

The little boy forced out a broken smile:

"They all got sick and died last year. Only my sister and I were fine."

As he spoke, his stomach made a series of "gurgling" sounds.

Joseph felt sad for a while and gave him some more money, but suddenly he saw a crowd of people rushing to buy angel water on the other side of the alley.

It is better to teach people to fish than to teach them how to fish.

He looked at the little boy: "Do you want to stop being hungry?"

The boy nodded very seriously.

"Let me teach you a way." Joseph pointed to the crowd, "There is a shop called Paris Angel over there. You use the money to buy some chairs and rent them outside the shop for 2 dennies an hour. Remember to collect a deposit.

"When you are familiar with the situation in the store, you can buy clean and neat clothes to change into. Then you can help those ladies and ladies who don't want to queue up, or you can buy them on your behalf. I estimate that you can charge 1 livre each time."

The boy's eyes widened and he saluted vigorously:

"Thank you so much! You must be sent by God to save my sister and me!"

Behind a raised wall pillar in the alley, a long-legged woman covered by gauze looked at Joseph from a distance and whispered to herself:

"That person seems to be the crown prince? I didn't expect that he has a good heart. It seems that the royal family is not all poisonous snakes and parasites."
