Chapter 184: Fragrance is full of Chang'an

No one expected that a few drops of small perfume could sweep the entire Chang'an.

In the east and west cities of Chang'an, there was a long queue outside the shops under the name of the eldest grandson's family, and the queues were all domestic servants from various large families.

In front of the shops, there was a constant flow of people, shouts, quarrels, and occasional half-baked Guanzhong words, which were foreign Hu merchants being pushed and even beaten by the people of the Tang Dynasty in the ranks.

The servants moved slowly in the team with bitter faces, from early morning to noon, the team kept advancing, and the end of the team kept being replenished, after noon, there was still a long queue outside the shop, but the guy in the shop ruthlessly closed the door panel, and hung a cold bamboo chip outside: "Today's perfume is sold out."

The crowd in line erupted in unwilling roars and annoyed sighs.

Half an hour passed, and under the scorching sun, the servants sweated like rain, but they still stubbornly refused to disperse, tiptoeing expectantly at the cold door of the shop.

At the end of West Street, there was the sound of hurried horses' hooves, several eunuchs wearing black gauze hats and purple robes rode their horses, and a middle-aged eunuch with a white face and beard dismounted, and the crowd moved out of the way in awe.

"Is this the one who sells perfumes?" The eunuch asked as he grabbed a servant in line and pointed to the closed door.

The servant nodded in horror.

Letting go of the servant, the eunuch looked at the big words "sold out" written on the bamboo chips hanging outside the door, and his sharp brows were furrowed tightly.

The eunuch who followed behind had a somewhat ugly face.

"How is this good, the nobles in the palace are waiting to use it, if we go back empty-handed......"

Before he finished speaking, he paused, and the faces of several eunuchs became ugly.

There was a muffled uproar from the crowd, and everyone looked at each other. The expressions are different.

Even the nobles in the palace know about perfume, and it is indeed a good thing, and it is not too much to say that it is as expensive as gold.

The eunuch at the head was silent for a long time, then suddenly stomped his feet and said sharply: "Inquire who is behind this shop, let's go straight to him!" ”

It's no secret that the people behind the shops are not a shocking secret. It didn't take long for the eunuch to find out.

The eunuch led by the leader twitched his cheeks a few times, and shook his head with a sad face: "Zhao Guogong...... We can't afford to provoke it, so let's go back and report it to the nobles truthfully, and we have to admit it if we are beaten. ”

Several eunuchs came and went in a hurry, and they stepped on their horses and hurried to the palace with their heads down.

The nobles in the palace are naturally Li Shimin's concubines, after the death of the eldest grandson, Li Shimin has never been crowned queen again, and the queen's position will always be reserved for the eldest grandson. Below the queen are the legendary four concubines, although their status is not as good as that of the eldest grandson queen, but they are also the four most prominent among the female animals in the Taiji Palace.

The things sold by the people, but the concubines in the palace couldn't buy them, and the four concubines lost their tempers, which was a slap in the face of the royal family.

Needless to say, the eunuchs who bought it couldn't run away after a beating, and the matter was not over. Now it's not a matter of whether you can use perfume or not, but I can't get along with it in my heart. The four concubines met and discussed, and very happily decided to form a team to brush Li Shimin.

So, in the Ganlu Hall of Taiji Palace, Li Shimin was not calm......

Li Su didn't expect the first day of the perfume release to be so popular, which greatly exceeded his expectations, in his opinion. After the perfume is on the market, it should be similar to spirits, all of which are consumables, and they need to be supplied by themselves, and the sales situation is naturally not hot.

When the servants of the eldest grandson's family came to Taiping Village with excitement on their faces, they told him that all the 800 catties of perfume were sold out in the morning. Li Su was taken aback, stunned for a long time and didn't come back to his senses.

Underestimate the pursuit of beauty by women in this era, when women in the previous life scolded people, they always had to add a "stinky" word in front, stinky men, stinky virtues, stinky shamelessness, etc., it can be seen how much women hate the word "stinky", and on the other hand, how much they love the word "incense".

It is expected that Yan zhòng will make a mistake, and it is estimated that the eldest grandson Wuji did not expect that a partnership transaction made like a willow would be so profitable.

"Go back and tell Uncle Changsun that you will ask him to send more craftsmen and increase the use of materials, hurry up!" Li Su quickly made a decision.

Money, who has a grudge against money? Li Su has always worshiped gold as Confucius.

After explaining a few words, Li Su yawned, said hello to Wang Zhu and went home, making money as soon as possible, and sleeping could not be delayed.

On the country road outside the workshop, two fast horses galloped forward and one after the other, Li Su squinted, and suddenly had a premonition that these two fast horses might be related to him.

Sure enough, the two fast horses stopped before and after Li Su's body, the two horses were a few feet apart, obviously not fellow travelers, the first one was wearing the eunuch uniform in the palace, and the one behind was an old acquaintance, Cheng Chumo.

The eunuch obviously also recognized Cheng Chumo, and after dismounting, he first bowed respectfully to Cheng Chu, and called him the little grandfather.

Cheng Chumo didn't dare to slack off, the eunuch was an angel when he left the palace, representing the Son of Heaven, so he hurriedly returned the salute.

The two of them obviously came at Li Su, Cheng Chumo waved his hand at the eunuch, signaling the eunuch to say first, the eunuch was under the emperor's order, but he was no longer humble, and when he turned around, his white face was already tight.

"At the behest of His Majesty, Li Su of Taiping Village has prepared all kinds of perfumes, which should be different from those of the people, and will be offered in the palace for a long time in the future, which is a tribute."

Li Su lowered his head to receive the order, and quietly pursed his lips while the eunuch was not paying attention.

After the eunuch finished speaking, he rode back to the palace to resume his life, and after he left, Wang Zhu showed an anxious look.

"What is different from the folk? Perfume is made like this, and any more process is not perfume, what can be done? ”

In the past two days, Wang Zhu stayed in the workshop every day, Li Su taught him to make perfume, and now Wang Zhu is very familiar with the process, so he is in a hurry.

Li Su squinted at him: "What are the difficulties that distinguish it from the people, what are you anxious about?" ”

Wang Zhu and Cheng Chu both looked at him silently.

"Do you have a way?"

"Of course......" Li Su looked around and lowered his voice: "You know how perfume is made, let me ask you, how many times do you shake the jar each time in the last process?" ”

Wang Zhu scratched his head: "How can I remember?" One or two pillars of incense, about two hundred......"

"Okay, in the future, sell it to the people for two hundred shakes, supply the Taiji Palace for two hundred and fifty shakes, and put it in a high-end porcelain bottle, well, this is a tribute."

Wang Zhu and Cheng Chu looked at him silently: "............"

Li Su admired his quick wit very much, if he didn't think that Li Shimin's concubines might not understand, he really wanted to name the tribute perfume Chanel No. 250, so that Li Shimin could have a good ......

"This ...... Is this okay? "Wang Zhumian is red-eared and red-eared.

Tribute, isn't it too child's play?

Li Su thought about it and felt that it was not appropriate, so he added: "Get some mint juice mixed in, not only beautiful, but also cool and defeated, so it's decided." ”

Turning his head to look at Cheng Chumo, Li Su sighed secretly, it seems that today is very busy......

"What's the matter with you?"

Cheng Chumo grinned and said, "I'm fine, I don't care about the smelly things, but my father has something." ”

"What's the matter with Uncle Cheng?"

Cheng Chumo glanced at him, and said slowly: "Today my father heard that you have made something new, and Chang'an City is crazy, the women in Chang'an City are crazy, even my Cheng Mansion does not stop, my father's five concubines have been making trouble all day, saying that they want perfume, otherwise they will not live......"

Li Su nodded very knowingly: "Brother Cheng, don't worry, I'll send someone to deliver the perfume to the house after a while, it's enough." ”

Cheng Chumo touched his nose and smiled a little gloating: "This, in fact, is not the point......

Li Su's eyelids jumped: "There is still a point?" ”

"Well, the point is, my father heard that you actually partnered with the eldest grandson family in this transaction...... After hearing the news, my father made a fuss more than his five concubines, shouting that he would go to Taiping Village with all his troops and hang you on the flagpole to fly ......"

Li Su broke out in a cold sweat.

What kind of position is it to fly on the flagpole Li Su can't imagine, this is naturally not realistic, the old rascal has not reached this point, but he should not be able to run away after being beaten.

What about things, it is not false that Li Su created it, he can partner with whoever he wants, this matter can be put on the table and explained clearly one by one, but Cheng Biting Jin's attributes are different, the truth is in front of him, whether to talk about it depends on the mood, when he doesn't want to be reasonable, the only way to solve it is to ...... Hang on the flagpole and fly?

"Can you be reasonable?" Li Su looked at Cheng Chumo complicatedly.

Cheng Chu smiled and pushed back: "My father doesn't talk about this." ”

And so it was......

Li Su looked at Cheng Chumo: "Your father is angry, what are you doing in Taiping Village?" It's not going to be for your dad to hang me on the flagpole, is it? ”

Cheng Chu smiled silently: "Of course I won't be so idle, I'm here to ask you for perfume......"

"Didn't you just say perfume wasn't the point?"

"Perfume is not my father's focus, but my focus, Chang'an City is out of stock, this thing was made by you, who am I not looking for you?"

"I'll give you perfume, but you can accompany me to your house." Li Sudao.

Things still have to be explained, although it is clear that Cheng bites the blonde and plays tricks, the Cheng family is already a big gate, and he won't care too much about money, but it's not a big deal, and it still has to be explained, whether others care about it is a matter of mind, and whether they can explain it is a matter of attitude.

So Li Su put on perfume, and Cheng Chumo entered the city in a hurry, and when he arrived at the door of Cheng's house, the minister on duty told Cheng Chumo two news, one good and one bad.

The bad news is that Cheng Yanjin went out and went straight to the eldest grandson Wuji's mansion.

The good news is that he didn't have any weapons with him.
