Chapter 20: The First Entrance to the Incense Room

Gu's perfume shop is one street away from the ancient mansion, which is closer to Gu's spice shop. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

The incense shop is a two-in, two-out house, because it has to transport spices, so the door of the incense shop is designed to be driven directly into the outer courtyard by horse-drawn carriage.

Not only did he take into account his daughter's reputation, but he also felt that it was a shame for the Gu family to rely on a little baby to save him, in short, the carriage in which Gu Jiaoxiang's master and servant were riding quietly drove directly into the courtyard from the side door, and finally stopped at the door of the moon gate in a courtyard.

Gu Jiaoxiang covered her face with the prepared veil before getting out of the car, and then got out of the carriage, the yard was very quiet, basically there were no people, Gu Deyuan's carriage stopped in front of her, and at this time, Gu Deyuan also got out of the car and directly signaled her to follow.

Because Gu Changfeng was old and didn't know much about perfumery, he didn't come with the carriage, but just told Gu Deyuan to send someone to inform him of the results when the time came, and went back to his house.

Gu Jiaoxiang followed Dongyue, followed by Gu Deyuan, and quietly looked at the courtyard, this courtyard was very quiet, only the other people either hurried by with incense sieves, or carried a few sticks of incense into incense, and after seeing Gu Deyuan, they saluted and said hello and went to their respective busy.

It is the courtyard opposite the moon gate, it is indeed a longing for people, back and forth is not lively, Gu Jiaoxiang knows that that is the real fragrance courtyard of the Gu family, as for this one, the courtyard is already small, a big house and two ear rooms, few people are quiet, but it is like a small incense room specially designed to test and develop incense recipes.

Gu Jiaoxiang guessed correctly, this is indeed a small incense room, after Gu Deyuan pushed open the door of the main house, she knew at a glance.

In order to avoid adding to the chaos, Gu Jiaoxiang sent Dongyue to the next ear room, originally she didn't plan to take Dongyue with her, but then she thought about it, she went out and left her alone in the yard, maybe she would make some moths, so she took her with her.

However, according to the rules of the incense shop, the perfume room is a confidential place for the ancient mansion, and it is not for idlers to enter, but now she relies on the recipe of perfumery, and it is difficult to enter, but she can't also bring Dongyue in, but it is reasonable to see her arranged in the ear room.

Then Gu Jiaoxiang followed Gu Deyuan into the small incense room.

The main house has only one transparent room, which is probably a spacious large room that has been directly opened by tearing down the partition walls of the previous inner and outer rooms. In the room, there are three incense stands one meter wide and about two meters long, each of which is leaning on a lattice cabinet, which is full of various tools for making incense, and on the opposite side of the incense table and the door, there is a small stove with its own blower, the stove is close to the wall, and the chimney can lead to the outside through the front.

At this time, there is another perfumer and three apprentices in the incense room, so it seems that Gu Deyuan has already arranged it, presumably these people are also he and his trust, and they are probably also important people in the preparation of Changming incense lamps.

The perfumer looked to be over 100 years old, his hair and beard were a little gray, his beard was a little decadent, and his eyes were more like dusty beads, without any radiance, probably due to fatigue.

This person is Zhao Yinqi, the perfumer of the Gu family, and when he saw Gu Deyuan coming in, he changed his previous decadent appearance, and immediately hurriedly greeted him, with a hint of expectation in his eyes: "Big boss, I heard that you have found another way to make incense lamps, but is it true?" ”

This Zhao Yinqi is indeed very tired, the Changming incense lamp has always been prepared by the workers of Xiangfangli led by him, and when he heard that the burning stone could not arrive on time, he was already sad and anxious.

You must know that if this batch of incense is not concocted on time, I am afraid that this year will be his last year in Gu's Incense Fang.

He was originally the perfumer of the Liu family, since the Liu family married the ancient mansion, he took the recipe of the Changming incense lamp and was sent here, and after careful calculation, he has also worked here for fourteen or five years, plus more than ten years of the Liu family, and it has been thirty years. If it weren't for the unique solid technique of making Changming incense lamps, he would probably have rolled up the bed and gone home to eat himself.

As a result, he didn't expect that the incense lamp, which had never had a problem, was approaching the end of the year because the materials were incomplete due to the university's obstruction, and he couldn't deliver it on time, if he really couldn't deliver it on time, he naturally understood the consequences, so in the past few days, he has been almost sleepless thinking about what can be done to solve the urgent need, but he doesn't have that brain, and he can't think of it.

Just when he was in despair, he suddenly came to tell him that the big boss had come up with a method and needed to verify the materials, so he felt that he might have a chance to stay here.

No, as soon as Gu Deyuan appeared in front of him, he couldn't wait to pounce on him and ask if it was true.

"You really need to try it to know." Gu Deyuan asked him, "Have you prepared all the things that you were asked to prepare before?" ”

"Mmmm, everything is ready, the raw materials needed are all in, I have people move some of the materials here, can you see what is still missing? If the ingredients are okay, is it time to start experimenting with perfumery? ”

Zhao Yinqi pointed to a few boxes of materials in the corner of the room, and was a little eager to try.

He thought that Gu Deyuan would come forward to check it out, and then debug it himself, but he didn't expect that he just took a step to the side, turned his head to the back and said, "You go and see if the things you need are complete?" ”

Zhao Yinqi found that there was still a person standing behind Gu Deyuan, to be exact, a little girl about ten years old. Although the face is covered with a veil, the big black eyes outside the veil are extraordinarily bright.

Now he began to be surprised, because he heard what Gu Deyuan meant, he actually wanted this little girl to come to see, didn't he say that the real way is actually this little girl?

I have to say that he is indeed smart about the truth.

Zhao Yinqi watched the girl walk to the material box, stretched out her hand and fiddled with it, and then began to walk to the incense platform, back and forth a few times, then nodded and walked back.

Without waiting for Gu Deyuan to speak, Zhao Yinqi hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "How is it?" But it's all there? ”

Gu Jiaoxiang stood aside, nodded and looked at Gu Deyuan and said, "The materials are complete, but I still need two other things." ”

Gu Deyuan: "Say." ”

"I need three female perfumers, apprentices and a thick plank about 2 meters long." Gu Jiaoxiang made a gesture of three, but she did speak at Zhao Yinqi.

"Female?" Zhao Yinqi was a little puzzled, although there were female apprentices in the incense workshop, but in his opinion, it was a very laborious job to concoct Changming incense lamps now, and if women came to do it, they would simply meet the standard: "What do you want women to do, you don't have enough strength." ”

As a result, after he finished speaking, he found that Gu Jiaoxiang was looking at him like an idiot.
