Chapter 210: Seeking One Thing
Luo Cheng was busy and prepared the early stage.
At this time, Xiaochan just finished picking the petals, and Luo Cheng washed the petals with Xiaochan. On the top of the pot, there was a sieve plate, and Luo Cheng put the petals on the sieve plate.
After placing the petals, Luo Cheng covered the pot and sealed it with clay around it. On one side of the pot are several thin bamboo pipes, one end connected to the pot, and the other end is connected to the cold water in the basin.
After doing this, Luo Cheng lit a fire and began to boil water. As the flame gradually rises, the water vapor in the pot keeps coming out. Affected by thermal expansion and contraction, water vapor flows into the cold water basin.
Heat the petals with water, and evaporate the essential oil in the petals, which will follow the water vapor to the water basin, and after separating from the water, you can get the essential oil that Luo Cheng needs.
After distillation, the essential oil is the essence of it, and the faint fragrance permeates the entire kitchen. Luo Cheng couldn't help but take a deep breath greedily and said, "It's really fragrant."
Xiaochan on the side was also a little surprised, the first wave Luo Cheng made was daffodils. The scent of daffodils in the air is many times richer than that of the flowers.
"Young master, is this a perfume?" Xiaochan asked suspiciously.
Luo Cheng waved his hand and said with a smile: "It's almost there, but this can't be called a perfume yet." Don't worry, when Young Master Ben puts these away, you'll understand. ”
Xiaochan nodded lightly, her eyes flashed with a strange look, looking at the essential oils floating on the water, looking very expectant.
Luo Cheng carefully took out these essential oils and put them in the small porcelain bottle that had been prepared a long time ago. These essential oils evaporate from the petals of the flower and will soon evaporate if not stored in utensils.
After cleaning up, Luo Cheng asked carefully again to feel the fruits of his labor. Then Luo Cheng said to himself: "When you add water to dilute this essential oil, it can be regarded as a simple perfume."
This perfume, if it is placed in modern times, is naturally inferior to good. But now, it is extremely precious, after all, with today's technology, it is impossible to make a complete version of perfume.
Such a defective product, although there are still many defects, but now looking at it, it is also a rare good thing. If Luo Cheng took it out and sold it, those rich people would never be stingy.
Of course, these are secondary, because Luo Cheng's primary purpose in making perfume is to please Luo's mother. Only by persuading Luo's mother can he get Luo Yi's consent and go to Jinan.
Not to mention anything else, after completing the tasks of the system, Luo Cheng's strength will be improved again. If you want to meet Yuwen Chengdu again, you won't be so cowardly.
Luo Cheng did not directly start the subsequent process, but steadily solved the matter at hand. The many petals picked by Xiaochan, the essential oils were extracted one by one, and they were packed in a small porcelain bottle.
Subsequently, Luo Cheng first diluted the daffodil essential oil, then took some from it, and asked Xiaochan with a smile: "How is it, is this perfume fragrant?" Like it or not? ”
Xiaochan nodded like a chicken pecking rice, her eyes were sincere and very sure. Luo Cheng couldn't help but laugh dumbly, he successively made the essential oils into simple versions of perfumes and packed them separately.
There are many kinds of petals picked by Xiaochan, Luo Cheng took a bottle from each fragrance, handed it to Xiaochan, and said, "You picked these petals, and these perfumes are a reward for you."
Xiaochan looked very happy, with a full smile on her face, and said righteously: "Young master, where are you talking about this?" It is Xiaochan's duty to help the young master do things. ”
"Haha, you can keep it well, these perfumes are not cheap." Luo Cheng couldn't help but smile and said.
Xiaochan was stunned when she heard this, and said with some doubts: "Didn't the young master do this?" The petals are still picked in the back garden, how can it be expensive? ”
Luo Cheng responded: "It's not expensive here, but it's not cheap if you go out to buy it."
Xiaochan nodded suddenly in realization.
Luo Cheng looked at the perfume in his hand, and he was satisfied. Fortunately, the journey went smoothly and there were no twists and turns.
Now that he has made this perfume, with this big killer, Luo Cheng is a little more sure of persuading Luo's mother.
However, seeing that it was not too early now, Luo Cheng was not in a hurry to do something. After all, there will be a chance for him to play in the next period of time.
Luo Cheng went back to wash up, refreshed, and went to sleep early.
In the early morning of the next day, Luo Cheng practiced martial arts as usual.
After breakfast, Luo Chengcheng quietly took a few bottles of perfume and went to Luo's mother's room.
Luo's mother raised her eyes slightly, and just happened to look at Luo Cheng, she smiled on her face, and said, "Cheng'er, you are looking for a mother, isn't there something wrong?"
Luo Cheng walked over with a chuckle and said, "Mother, my son has something good for you."
"What's new for you?" Luo Cheng's troubles have become a daily routine, and Luo's mother is naturally used to it, although she is a little curious, she still says very calmly.
Luo Cheng stretched out his hand and pretended to exaggerate and said: "Dangdangdang, mother, look at it, this is a perfume."
Luo Mu looked at the bottles and cans, and wondered: "Perfume, what is that?"
Luo Cheng pretended to be mysterious and said, "Mother, you will know when you open it."
Luo Mu thought about it, couldn't help but smile, and didn't ask much, just reached out and opened a small porcelain bottle, and the fragrance in the bottle quickly spread. Luo Mu's face was different, feeling the fragrance in the air, and her eyes looked at Luo Cheng.
Luo Cheng smiled and said, "What does my mother think of this perfume?" If you spray it on your body, your whole body will be filled with fragrance, how charming it is......"
Before Luo Cheng finished touting, Luo Mu said: "This perfume is really not ordinary, is this what you made Cheng'er?"
"That's nature? This is what the child made for his mother. Luo Cheng said affirmatively.
Luo's mother shook her head slightly, and said with emotion: "Cheng'er, you are not like your father, you understand a woman's mind like this, and I am worried that you will be a big pig's trotter in the future."
Luo Cheng was stunned when he heard this, and was speechless for a moment, Luo Mu's words are not according to the routine at all! Isn't she supposed to be obsessed with the charm of perfume? Why are you worried that he will become a big pig's trotter?
Well, no matter what Luo Mu said, Luo Cheng didn't dare to refute it. He looked at Luo Mu with a little helplessness in his eyes, he is a very chaste person, how can he be a big pig's trotters?
Luo's mother sighed with emotion, nodded to herself, and said: "This perfume is really likable, since you sincerely gave it to your mother, you reluctantly accepted it."
Then, Luo Mu put a hand, and several small porcelain bottles were in her grasp. Luo Cheng was speechless by default, why does this feel a little familiar? But he didn't care about it, and said: "Mother, the child really has something to ask for this time!"
Luo Mu looked at Luo Cheng, everything was expected.
