Chapter 183: Such an incense shop

Some people just bully the soft and are afraid of the hard, this guy saw Lin Bi conning and smiled, his tone was tough, and he unconsciously weakened a little momentum, and Ai Ai said: "...... Hold on. Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info" and reluctantly invited the shopkeeper.

The shopkeeper was a middle-aged man in his forties and fifties, tall and fat, with a smile on his face, like a Maitreya Buddha, he glanced at the guy, and said to Lin Bining with a smile: "I don't know what kind of incense this guest wants to buy?" ”

The guy's eyes flickered and looked at Lin Bining, lest she would complain to the shopkeeper. She was just angry for a while, but after all, what kind of guy she used was a matter of other people's stores, so why should she talk too much.

A smile rose at the corner of her mouth, and there was no trace of anger on her face, and she said, "Shopkeeper, the fragrant cakes in my store are much more expensive than the ones I bought in the past, I don't know why?" ”

This question should have been asked many times, but the shopkeeper replied with a smile without thinking about it: "This son, my family's incense cakes are made of the best incense materials, and naturally the price of this incense is more expensive than others." As far as the agarwood inside is concerned, my home is the best water agarwood, which costs twenty taels of silver and one tael. ”

There are many ways to divide agarwood, "Compendium of Materia Medica" divides agarwood into three categories based on the amount of oil content of agarwood and the degree of immersion. The half-sinking one is stacked incense; The unsinkable one is yellow and ripe. This is also the simplest way to divide it.

The best water agarwood fragrance is warm and mellow, but the agarwood fragrance in Xu Ji incense pills is mellow and violent, and it is clearly stacked incense, Lin Bining snorted lightly in her heart, shoddy, if she hadn't dealt with incense all day long, I am afraid that she would not have been able to smell the difference between the two from the prepared incense cakes.

She nodded in agreement, and then asked, "I wonder what is the best way to smell this incense?" ”

A trace of doubt flashed in the shopkeeper's heart, could this be a connoisseur who understands incense, but seeing the other party's humble appearance of asking for advice, he still replied with a smile: "The son can wrap this incense in a tulle cage and use it to smoke clothes, or smoke it through fire." ”

"Well, let's have one." Lin Bining took out the silver to pay the bill.

The shopkeeper took the silver, handed over the incense box, and said with a smile: "Thank you for your patronage, there are still many incense products in our store, and I welcome my son to come again." ”

Xiao Er next to him showed an expression of "It's really a dirt bun" on his face, and he completely forgot about the performance of begging for mercy from the other party just now.

"Hmm." Lin Bining didn't bother to pay attention to Xiao Er's market face, took the incense and left.

Shi Jianxue was a little obedient, and only after Xu Ji was eight or nine zhang out of Xu Ji did he speak: "Young master, our own family is an incense maker, so Xiao Er is so snobbish, why do you want to buy his family?" ”

"I thought that the incense in this store was so high, there would be something outstanding, who knew that his family was just shoddy, with incense to make money, from the second child to the shopkeeper no one really understands incense, but so." Lin Bining shook her head lightly and said with disdain.

Peng Yue hadn't really been in contact with Lin Bining before, and he didn't know much about incense, so he felt that the little master's words were a little conceited, and he couldn't help but touch his nose and said: "That little er is not very good, but I can understand it very well when I look at the shopkeeper, and he doesn't answer the young master's questions very well." ”

The squire was unconditionally convinced of the eldest lady, and when he heard this, he glared at the other party with wide eyes and puffed up, but the other party was taller and stronger than himself, so he only dared to mumble in a low voice: "Turn your elbow out." ”

Lin Bining seemed to know Peng Yue's inner thoughts, glanced at him with a smile, and slowly explained: "After the best agarwood and the inferior agarwood are incense, others can't distinguish between them, but I can smell it when I deal with incense all year round. ”

A suspicious look flashed in Peng Yue's eyes, the little master was young, and he didn't believe her words very much.

She opened the incense box and said: "Xiangyu cake is made of cloves, dipterophores, agarwood, jasmine, mint, honey and combination, cloves have the effect of removing bad breath since ancient times, and it is the most suitable way to use decoction incense in this incense, and when its aroma is large and the remaining fragrance still exists, it can also be used with rock sugar. Xiangyu cake is chewing incense, the most basic usage, but the shopkeeper has never said it, which shows that he is a layman. ”

"Frying fragrant, just like frying dumplings, fry them in oil?" Shi Jian swallowed his saliva, thinking of his mother's fried dumplings and feeling hungry again.

Lin Bining laughed out loud, Qianye Pavilion does not allow outsiders to enter, she is Qingmiao Qingyin when she is in Linjiang Xuan, and it is not to blame that the sword does not know, but as an entourage of the Lin family, these are not known and do not be, and they still need to improve their knowledge in this area in the future.

"No, frying incense is to dip the smoked side of the incense cake with a little water to make the incense cake 'moisturized', and then put it on the fire barrier, and smoke it under the fire barrier with charcoal fire, this method can use water to eliminate the smoke, but also to prevent the incense cake from burning, so that it will not be too dry when it is in the mouth."

Listening to her eloquently, Peng Yue's eyes were full of suspicions, everyone has their own good at it, for example, he has great strength since he was a child, he can lift fifty or sixty pounds of heavy objects at the age of five, and his strength is greater than that of a weak adult.

"Young master, since you know that this house is not a good fragrance, why don't you expose them, why are you still the wrongdoer?" Shi Jian looked at a box of five taels of incense and said distressedly, if this is replaced by donkey meat baked cakes in the morning, you can eat it for a year.

Lin Bining looked left and right, just walked to a place where there were few pedestrians, and said in a low voice: "Xu Ji can become the most famous incense shop in Hualing, with a continuous stream of customers, and the store is so magnificent but not to attract thieves, it must have his own way." If we expose them in public, I'm afraid that we won't even be able to get out of the store, and it's better for foreigners like us not to provoke the local snakes. Spending a little money can keep the three people safe, and it's worth it. ”

The little master has never been out of the house, but he can have such eyesight, Peng Yue couldn't help but admire, nodded and said: "The young master is right, when the shopkeeper came out, I caught a glimpse of a burly man sitting inside, presumably a thug hired by Xu Ji." ”

Encountering two bad things in the morning, Shi Jian couldn't help but be a little afraid, but fortunately, he was not impulsive when the eldest lady and the younger lady were talking, and at the same time warned himself in his heart not to act recklessly in the future, so as not to bring trouble to the eldest lady and himself.

"Young Master, where are we going now?" Peng Yue asked.

"It's almost noon, and I'm tired of going back and forth to the dart game and Xu Ji's running, so let's go to the restaurant that Xiao Er said first, and we'll go to other incense shops in the afternoon." Lin Bining said with a smile.

"Then the young master isn't looking for Shen Chenghui?" Squire asked, blinking.

Lin Bining smiled mysteriously: "That's not in a hurry. ”
