That night, Qin Mu will deliver the spices to the Qi Palace.
"It's really fragrant!" Luluo grabbed a handful of spices and smelled it on the tip of her nose, squinting to enjoy the fragrance.
Aster said: "His Royal Highness, here are agarwood, balsam, dried jasmine, dried tulip, and dipterocarp. The servants have some knowledge of this spice in the palace, and they are indeed excellent spice."
"Well, that's all right, there must be no mistakes in the things given to the queen." Xiao Ming said.
Lulu asked: "His Royal Highness also wants to give these spices to the Queen Empress, but there are many spices in the Queen Empress's collection. Although these spices are good, they may not be attractive to the Empress Empress."
Aster gave Lulu a white look, "Stupid, your Royal Highness asked to buy wine and spices. I will definitely not only give these ordinary spices."
Xiao Ming nodded, "Of course, two days later, the Department of Equipment delivered the things, and this king will let you see it personally."
Three days later, Chen Qi sent the distiller Xiao Ming wanted, which was actually three connected clay pots.
At this time, Xiao Ming was not idle either, but instead summoned the servants in the mansion to tell them the specific steps of distilling alcohol and purifying essence.
As soon as the distiller was shipped, the servants in Fuchu immediately set up the distiller and used a briquettes to heat it to purify the alcohol and essence.
Because of this incident, people in the entire palace are busy. In addition to Qian Dafu who took people to mine graphite mines, Luluo and Aster also came to help.
In the past few days, Lulu and Aster have not escaped Xiao Ming's knowledge. After the alcohol and essence flowed out of the still, the two of them packed the two together in delicate porcelain bottles, and began to mix and shake them evenly.
In Xiao Ming's head, there are no fewer than tens of thousands of different types of perfume making methods.
Generally speaking, the composition of perfume is composed of fragrance, fixative and alcohol.
Essence is naturally the essential oils purified from various plants, while fixatives refer to things like balsam, which contain more oil, similar to things in facial cleansers, and can also be used as foundations.
Xiao Ming is very clear about the three kinds of ratios, because the first perfume creation didn't require trials at all and it went smoothly.
The final job is to mix the three things together.
Two sets of stills, one set for distilling rice wine and one set for distilling flavor, operate at the same time, and the rest are shaking the porcelain bottles.
Xiao Ming also took a porcelain bottle and shook it. The weather is too cold. It's better to exercise while standing still.
"His Royal Highness, when is this going to be shaken?" After half an hour passed, Lu Luo was panting, breathing white mist, and a small face flushed.
Xiao Ming said: "You open the cork and smell it. If the smell becomes even, it will be almost done."
Luluo nodded her head, pulled out the cork and smelled it, she was startled, "Your Highness, this smells delicious!"
Aster also leaned in and sniffed it, showing a look of surprise, "This spice is very fragrant, but there is no difference in the smell, but your Highness, how do you use this thing?"
In the country of Da Yu, spices are basically made into fragrant cakes, and the usage is basically divided into two types: compress and smoke. His perfume is unique. He said: "It's very simple, just take out a little and sprinkle on your body."
As a woman, she is not uninterested in spices. Luluo poured a little perfume and wiped it on her face. The scent wafted out immediately, which was the fragrance of jasmine.
The comfortable smell made Aster envy for a while, and she poured a little on her body.
"How about it, it's more comfortable than Xiangbing, and the fragrance can last for a day." Xiao Ming said.
Luluo laughed happily, smelling herself and aster again, like a child who had not grown up.
Aster has a smile on his face. This kind of thing called "perfume" by the king of Qi is indeed extraordinary. After all, this fragrant cake has to be applied to the body and it is easy to fall off. It is far less practical than perfume.
"His Royal Highness, if this perfume is given to the Queen Empress, the Empress Empress will be happy." Aster said.
Xiao Ming feels relieved now. Luluo and Aster are both from the palace and naturally have a say. "In this case, this king can rest assured that this time there will be no less than a hundred bottles of perfume, and the perfume in your hands will be given to you. You guys."
"Thank you, your lord!" Luluo smiled and bowed to Xiao Ming. The baby aster held the porcelain bottle in her arms for fear that Xiao Ming would regret it.
This time, the amount of rice wine is much larger than the spices. After the essence is used up, there is still a lot of rice wine left.
In line with the shame of waste and the thought that it is difficult to swallow after drinking, 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, the only one who is impressed is this Li San.
Because this Li San can speak well, and his work efficiency is also good, Aster has a good evaluation of him.
Qian Dafu is very busy now, and Xiao Ming can't always mix with the green aster, after all, some occasions are not suitable for girls to follow.
"His Royal Highness, the little slave is here." Li San ran to Xiao Ming, "His Royal Highness, what's your order."
Looking at Li San who looks the same as Santoku, UU reading www.uukanshu. com Xiao Ming said: "Go and prepare a few wine jars and distill the remaining rice wine."
"Go, Your Highness." Li San immediately ordered the other families to go to the warehouse of the palace to get the wine jar, and continue to distill the rice wine here.
When making perfume just now, this rice wine was distilled repeatedly to get a high concentration of alcohol.
This time it was different. It was distilled directly at one time, and the green rice wine turned into pure rice wine in a flash.
This time the rice wine is still mixed with the sweetness of rice wine, but the alcohol content has been greatly improved.
The ancients are not drunk in a thousand cups, originally it is a low-grade rice wine, but when you encounter his distilled rice wine, you will not be drunk in a thousand cups.
All day long, the whole palace was busy distilling rice wine and perfume, and all these raw materials were used up in the evening.
"Li San, let this distiller be put away, so that no one else should see it, and don't say what it is for." Xiao Ming said, owning his own technology to keep it secret.
Li San patted his chest and said, "Your Highness, don't worry, I won't say anything about killing."
Xiao Ming nodded, "Well, yes, but there is one more thing to leave to you. These perfume kings need you to send them to the mother and concubine of Changan City.
"Chang'an? Your Highness, Chang'an is a thousand miles away. If the slave goes alone and meets a bandit..." Li San said worriedly.
"You don't have to worry about this, this time this king wants you to go to Chang'an with the Qin family boat." Xiao Ming thought.
Two days ago, he hit the Qin family with a stick, and it is time to give a candied date. The stick carrot should be replaced.
