He obtained the God of All Laws from human skin.

Sister Wu led Qin Chuan up to the second floor, and then they entered a room.

The eight women from yesterday were sitting on several round stools inside. When Qin Chuan came in, they all stood up. Their expressions were much calmer than when they first met yesterday, but their eyes still held a hint of restraint.

There were two other people sitting in the corner of the room, which Qin Chuan noticed as he entered.

They were two elderly women, each with a bulging cloth bundle beside them.

The other person, who was rather thin, was slowly sipping his tea when he saw Qin Chuan enter. He looked Qin Chuan up and down.

Sister Wu stepped forward with a smile and introduced, "Mr. Qin, it took me a lot of effort to invite these two."

She first pointed to the woman carrying the cloth bundle: "This is Granny Sun, a famous tailor in our Qinghe County. She has been making clothes for thirty years. She has worked as an embroiderer in several silk shops in the south of the city. Her skills are unparalleled."

Grandma Sun stood up and gave Qin Chuan a slight bow.

Sister Wu then turned to the woman holding the teacup, her tone becoming more solicitous: "This is Granny Liu, and she's even more remarkable. In Qinghe County, everyone of a certain age knows the name 'Granny Liu.' Years ago, she worked as a hairdresser in wealthy households, specializing in styling the hair and makeup of young ladies and wives. I heard she even styled the wedding hair of the eldest daughter of a retired official. These days, she's gotten older and doesn't take on many jobs anymore. I brought a generous gift to invite her this time, and only then did she agree."

Granny Liu took a sip of tea, nodded, and had a smug look on her face.

Qin Chuan greeted everyone politely without much formality, and then glanced around the room.

He had seen it clearly yesterday; to be honest, the backgrounds of these eight women were quite ordinary.

In terms of appearance, he wouldn't stand out in a crowd; at most, he could be described as handsome and decent-looking.

The reason why Yan Chun Ge is so deserted is not only because of its remote location, but also because the girls are not very attractive.

But Qin Chuan wasn't worried about that. Having stayed here for some time, he had already discovered that women of this era naturally wore makeup as well.

But to be honest, it's still far inferior to the makeup techniques used in modern times to transform an ordinary person into a fairy.

If we could find a skilled hairstylist who could combine modern styling concepts with ancient techniques, perhaps we could create something extraordinary.

That's why, after returning from Yanchun Pavilion yesterday, he specifically instructed Sister Wu to spare no expense in hiring a skilled hairdresser.

Qin Chuan walked up to Granny Liu and said, "Granny Liu, now that you're here, I'll get straight to the point."

"The makeup I want can't be too heavy," Qin Chuan gestured. "The powder shouldn't be too thick, the blush shouldn't be too red, and the eyebrows shouldn't be too curved or thin. Just a thin touch of blush on the lips, and the eye makeup needs to be extra careful, to brighten the eyes and make them look more energetic, but the color shouldn't be too heavy..."

Qin Chuan's speech was rather long, and Liu Mama grew increasingly impatient as she listened. She said, "Oh, there's no need to say any more. When I was young, I served the young lady in the Vice Minister's mansion. I know how to do makeup. Just wait for me to finish."

After saying that, she stood up, picked up her bundle, walked to a young woman, and began to put on makeup.

Seeing this, Qin Chuan didn't say anything more. He turned to Granny Sun, took out a stack of papers from his pocket, and spread them out on the table.

The paper contained several clothing sketches he had drawn before coming. The lines weren't very detailed, but the styles and structures were clearly depicted.

Grandma Sun looked down and her gaze immediately froze.

She bent down and leaned closer, squinting at the clothes for a long time before raising her head, her tone hesitant: "I've been making these clothes for thirty years, and I've never seen this style before."

Grandma Sun could never have seen this; it was designed by Qin Chuan using modern techniques.

One of the designs on the paper is a modified version of the ancient Ruqun (a type of traditional Chinese dress), similar to the one in "The Legend of Big Head Stickers," which emphasizes a profound and sophisticated style.

The other design is even bolder, incorporating modern aesthetics. Although the neckline is quite low, it is subtle yet exquisite, aiming for a push-and-pull effect, a sense of wanting to resist but not wanting to give up.

Granny Sun looked at it very carefully, then looked up at Qin Chuan and said solemnly, "Manager Qin, I have never made this kind of clothing before. If you want to make it exactly the same, I will have to think about it carefully."

"It doesn't have to be exactly the same," Qin Chuan said. "Make it whatever Grandma Sun can make it, as long as it's roughly the same."

Grandma Sun nodded and carefully put the papers into her cloth bundle.

Then Sister Wu found her a room so she could make a sample garment.

After some time,

Granny Liu had also finished her work, and then she called Qin Chuan over and said, "It's done."

Qin Chuan frowned as he looked at the woman's makeup.

Because the makeup Liu Mama applied wasn't done according to his instructions at all, but rather resembled the style depicted in ancient paintings of court ladies.

His face was pale, with two bright red dots around his mouth...

Qin Chuan looked at Granny Liu and said, "I told you not to draw your eyebrows too curved or too thin..."

Before she could finish speaking, Granny Liu retorted, "I've been doing hair and makeup for people for thirty years. Which young lady or mistress of the provincial governor's mansion or the various families in Qinghe County doesn't have her hair done like this? This is proper and respectable makeup."

"Erase it and redraw it." Qin Chuan was too lazy to argue with her.

"Do you even know how to do makeup?" Being questioned like this made Granny Liu very angry.

Qin Chuan didn't let her finish speaking. He looked at Sister Wu and said, "Settle the bill and let her leave."

Upon hearing this, Granny Liu's face changed drastically: "What did you say? I've lived in Qinghe County for decades, and no one has ever dared to do such a thing..."

"roll!"

Qin Chuan didn't tolerate it either.

With that shout and the added advantage of her professional skills, Granny Liu dared not utter another word and slunk away.

Qin Chuan then looked at Sister Wu: "Sister Wu, you should also know how to do makeup, right?"

"Yes, definitely," Sister Wu added, "It's just..."

"That's enough," Qin Chuan waved his hand, "I'll continue, and you can just follow along with the drawing."

......

Half an hour later, Qin Chuan took two steps back, looked the woman in front of Sister Wu up and down, and finally nodded in satisfaction.

Her skin was even and radiant, her eyebrows and eyes were delicately adorned, and her lips were only lightly tinted with rouge, giving them a natural, healthy glow.

The affected air of those paintings of court ladies is completely gone, replaced by a purity that runs deep.

This level of skill would be around 6 or 7 out of 10 in modern terms, and of course, it can't compare to the techniques of the beauty bloggers he remembers.

But in this era, it's a completely different thing.

at the same time,

The sample garments from Grandma Sun's side have been made and delivered.

"Who wants to give it a try?" Qin Chuan had barely finished asking when...

A woman walked over and said, "I'll do it."

Qin Chuan recognized her; she was the one who had taken off her clothes first last night, and her name was Xiao Taohua.

Little Peach Blossom walked up to Qin Chuan, reached out, and generously took the clothes from him. Without lingering, she turned and walked to the center of the room, where she began to undress in front of everyone.

After taking it off, she picked up the garment, put it on, and then reached out to straighten the belt around her waist, tying a simple knot.

Then she raised her head and looked at Qin Chuan, her expression calm.

Qin Chuan glanced at it a few times and nodded slightly.

Ok,

What I want is a "photo booth"!
