Ni Chengui stirred with his spoon, surprised when he saw the black granules inside, “Yangyang, what’s this black thing?” He hadn’t seen anything like this when he was drinking this in Inner Mongolia.

Ni Yang explained, “It’s tapioca pearls, made from cassava flour.”

“Can it be eaten?” Ni Chengui asked.

“Yes, it can,” NiYang nodded.

Ni Chengui took a sip from his spoon and was met with a rich milky fragrance, followed by a fresh tea aroma and a subtle fruity scent, all lingering in the mouth for a long time.

The tapioca pearls were chewy, with a really nice texture, similar to that of fruit candy but much tastier.

It was far tastier than the milk tea he had back in Inner Mongolia!

Ni Chengui’s face was full of surprise.

Seeing Chengui’s reaction, Cuihua knew the milk tea must taste good, so she immediately picked up her cup and took a sip.

Yum!

Indeed, the taste did not disappoint her.

Since the milk tea received such high praise, Ni Yang made two more pounds of tapioca pearls that evening to serve at the Noodle Restaurant the following day.

After prepping for the next day, Ni Yang went on to make some facial cleanser and aloe vera gel.

With the blender, she didn’t have to think much about making skincare products.

Since villagers kept bringing her aloe vera, Ni Yang was not worried about running out of stock.

Ni Yang was sorting out her skincare products when Chengui walked in.

“Yangyang, the freckle-removing cream you made last time is really good. I want to have two more sets. By the way, my colleague’s sister is having acne problems, can you make any acne-removing cream?” he asked.

“Acne?” Ni Yang slightly raised her eyebrows, “It depends on the type of acne. Is it caused by heatiness? Is it serious?”

Actually, aloe vera gel could suffice for mild acne, but if it’s severe, the gel could only serve as an auxiliary inflammation reducer.

Ni Chengui continued, “It’s not that severe, but it isn’t mild either. She has about eight or nine pimples, and it doesn’t seem to be caused by heatiness. My colleague said his sister doesn’t eat spicy food.”

Ni Yang nodded, “Alright, please tell her if she can wait a day, I’ll make it for her. The acne cream will be the same price as the freckle cream.”

Ni Chengui took the cream from Ni Yang with one hand and handed over the money with the other, “Fine, it’s a deal.”

The market for acne products is actually pretty large.

It’s arguably better than that for freckle removal!

So, once Chengui left, Ni Yang started researching acne products.

For products applied to the face, safety comes first, and only pure, unpolluted ingredients should be used.

Why couldn’t domestically produced skincare products keep their foothold in the market?

Because of their unethical practices!

They made inferior products and charged a fortune!

Customers aren’t fools.

All of a sudden, an idea popped into Ni Yang’s mind. She took a flashlight and went to the Vegetable Garden.

When she came back, she had a handful of Portulaca.

Portulaca is a kind of wild grass, edible and medicinal.

According to Traditional Chinese Medicine, “Portulaca can be used for clearing heat, promoting urination, detoxification, reducing inflammation, quenching thirst, and diuresis.”

In fact, Portulaca has a significant effect that is often overlooked – acne removal!

After Ni Yang cleaned and blended the Portulaca, she added some honey and a secret formula, turning it into a paste. This was how she made the acne­removal cream.

Of course, Ni Yang wouldn’t hastily sell the products she made. After washing her face, she applied a bit of cream on the skin behind her ears. Only after confirming there was no issue would she proceed to sell it.

The first thing she did the next morning was to check the acne cream she applied the night before.

Very good.

The skin in the mirror was fair and showed no abnormalities.

Ni Yang hummed a tune in satisfaction, packed a box of skincare products to the back seat of the bike, and then nonchalantly went to wash up. Shortly after, noises could be heard from the kitchen.

She finished all these just after three in the morning.

By the time Cuihua and Chengui got up, Ni Yang had already ridden off on her bike.

As it was the first day of selling milk tea, Ni Yang followed her usual routine by giving away a cup of milk tea to every noodle customer.

The milk tea came in both hot and normal temperature versions.

Everyone was drinking milk tea for the first time, so as expected, Ni Yang received countless positive reviews.
