Chapter 30 Perfume is poisonous

That night, Qin Mu delivered the spices to the Qi Palace.

"It smells so good!" Luluo grabbed a handful of spices and sniffed them on her nose, squinted her eyes and enjoyed the fragrance.

Aster said, "Your Highness, here are agarwood, balm, dried jasmine, dried tulip, and dragon head fragrance. I also have some understanding of this spice in the palace, and it is indeed a great spice."

"Well, that's fine. There can't be any mistakes in the things given to the queen." Xiao Ming said.

Luluo asked, "Your Highness also wants to give these spices to the Queen, but the Queen has many spices. Although these spices are good, they may not be able to attract attention from the Queen."

Aster glanced at Green Ivy, "Silly, Your Highness asked to buy wine and spices again, so I will definitely not only give these ordinary spices."

Xiao Ming nodded, "Of course, in two days, the Equipment Department will deliver the things. I will let you see them in person."

Three days later, Chen Qi brought the distiller that Xiao Ming wanted, which was actually three connected pots.

At this time, Xiao Ming was not idle, but summoned the servants in the mansion to tell them about the specific steps of distilling alcohol and purifying the fragrance.

As soon as the still was transported, the servants in the mansion immediately set up the still and heated it underneath to purify alcohol and essence.

Because of this, the entire royal palace became busy. In addition to Qian Dafu and his men taking them to mine the graphite mine, Luluo and Aster also came to help.

Luluo and Aster have not escaped Xiao Ming's knowledge teaching these days. When alcohol and fragrance flow out of the still, they put the two together in exquisite porcelain bottles and began to mix and shake evenly.

In Xiao Ming's head, there are no less than tens of thousands of methods for making various perfumes.

Generally speaking, the perfume composition consists of fragrance, fixative and alcohol.

Fragrance is naturally essential oil purified by various plants, and fixatives refer to things like balm, that is, things containing more oils, similar to things in facial cleansers, and can also be used as foundation.

Xiao Ming knew these three ratios clearly, because the first perfume was made without any experiments and it went very smoothly.

The final work is to mix three things together and stir.

Two sets of distilled stills, one set of distilled rice wine, and one set of distilled flavors, which operate at the same time, and the rest of the people were shaking the porcelain bottles.

Xiao Ming also took a porcelain bottle and shook it. The weather was too cold. It was better to exercise if you stood there and remained still.

"Your Highness, when will this be shaken?" After half an hour passed, Luluo was panting, her mouth was foggy, and her little face was red.

Xiao Ming said: "If you open the bottle plug and smell it, it will be almost done if the smell becomes even."

Luluo lit her little head, pulled out the bottle plug and sniffed it, and was stunned, "Your Highness, this smells so good!"

Aster also leaned over and smelled it, showing a look of surprise, "This spice is very fragrant, but this taste is different. But how do you use this thing?"

In the country of Dayu, spices are basically made into fragrant cakes, and their usage is basically divided into two types: compression and smoke. His perfume is unique. He said: "It's very simple, just take out a little and sprinkle it on your body."

As a woman, she was not interested in spices. She poured a little perfume on her face and applied it to her face. The fragrance suddenly drifted out, which was the fragrance of jasmine.

The comfortable smell made Aster envious, and she poured a little on her body.

"How about it, it's much more comfortable than fragrant cakes, and the fragrance can last for a day." Xiao Ming said.

Luluo was so happy that she just laughed, smelling herself from time to time, and smelling Aster again, like a child who had not grown up.

Aster smiled. This kind of thing called "perfume" by King Qi is indeed extraordinary. This fragrant cake will eventually be applied to the body and will easily fall off. It is far less practical than perfume.

"Your Highness, if you give this perfume to the Queen, the Queen will be happy." Aster said.

Xiao Ming was relieved now. Green ivy and Aster were both from the palace, so he naturally had the right to speak. "Since that's the case, I'm relieved. This time, there are no less than a hundred bottles of perfume. I'll give you the perfume in your hands."

"Thank you Your Highness!" Lu Luo smiled and bowed to Xiao Ming. Ziyuan hugged the porcelain bottle in her arms like a baby, for fear that Xiao Ming would regret it.

This time, compared to spices, there is a lot of rice wine left. After using up the essence, there is still a lot of rice wine left.

In the idea that waste is shameful and it is difficult to swallow after drinking it, Xiao Ming turned this inferior rice wine into modern white wine.

"Li San."

Xiao Ming still doesn't know much about the servants in the mansion, and the only thing that impressed him is Li San.

Because Li San is very eloquent and has good efficiency in his work, Ziyuan has also had a good evaluation of him.

Qian Dafu is very busy now, and Xiao Ming can't always get along with the Green Ivy Aster. After all, some occasions are not suitable for girls to follow.

"Your Highness, little slave is here." Li San ran to Xiao Ming, "Your Highness, what are your instructions?"

Looking at Li San who looks like Sandezi, Xiao Ming said: "Go and prepare a few wine jars and distille the remaining rice wine."

"Okay, Your Highness." Li San immediately ordered other servants to go to the warehouse of the royal palace to get the wine jar, and continue to distille rice wine here.

When I was making the perfume just now, the rice wine was repeatedly distilled to obtain high concentrations of alcohol.

This time it was different. It was directly distilled at one time. The original green rice wine turned into pure rice wine in a blink of an eye.

This time the rice wine is mixed with the sweetness of rice wine, but the alcohol content has been greatly improved.

The ancients did not get drunk for a thousand cups. Originally, it was a low-degree rice wine, but when they met the rice wine they distilled, they would not get drunk for a thousand cups.

All day long, the entire royal palace was busy distilling rice wine and perfume, and only in the evening were all these raw materials.

"Li San, please put away this distiller, so you don't want others to see it, and you are not allowed to say anything." Xiao Ming said, and he had to keep his skills confidential.

Li San patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, your highness, I won't say anything if I beat you to death."

Xiao Ming nodded, "Well, it's not bad, but there is another thing to hand over to you. I need you to send these perfumes to my mother in Chang'an City.

"Chang'an? Your Highness, Chang'an is a thousand miles away from here. If the little slave goes alone, he will meet a bandit halfway..." Li San said worriedly.

"You don't have to worry about this. This time I asked you to go to Chang'an with the Qin family's ship." Xiao Ming thought.

He beat the Qin family two days ago and should have given him a candied date, so he had to change the big stick carrots.
