Chapter 65: The Rose Group was born
Chekov was busy in London, and neither was Ferdinand. Didn't you plan to develop the rose industry before? Now it's time to start, start with the traditional one, and you don't have to worry about buying rose essential oil anyway!
Everyone knows that women make the best money, and this sentence applies to any time and space. The main benefits of rose essential oil:
1. It can improve menstrual pain
2. Enhance women's self-charm
3. Shape women's beautiful curves
4. Assist gastrointestinal digestion function
5. Improve constipation symptoms
6. Enhance women's self-confidence
With so many effects, do you still have to worry about not being able to sell? At least Ferdinand didn't worry about sales, in addition to medicinal and edible, it can also be used to make high-end perfumes.
The key is that the yield of rose essential oil has never been high. There's no way, who made the refining ratio so low?
There is no technical difficulty, and the distillation equipment of rose essential oil mainly includes: distillation kettle, re-steaming column, gooseneck, condenser, and oil-water separator.
Except for the large amount of manpower required, there is basically not much difficulty. It is nothing more than repeated distillation and re-distillation.
As long as the picking technology is used, there is no need to worry about this, Bulgaria has a history of production for hundreds of years, and the old farmers in the countryside know it very well.
That's right, how could Ferdinand let go of this kind of money-making business? Just do it, he remembered the most famous rose sanctuary in later generations, the Kazanlak Rose Valley, and chose it without thinking about it.
Ferdinand sat lazily in the master's chair and shouted, "Alice, ask Ferrantz to come and see me!" ”
After speaking, he continued to play with his beloved tea set, which is said to be something from the Ru kiln of the Song Dynasty. This was the last time Ferdinand had returned from Buckingham Palace.
As for the truth or falsehood, let's just count it as true! The people below should not have the guts to deceive Queen Victoria. Of course, it is not excluded that the level of appreciation given to the British is a two-knife knife, just like Ferdinand, it is impossible to distinguish the real from the fake!
If it was a previous life, there was such a set of treasures, Ferdinand must have kept it carefully, and he was afraid of breaking it in his hand.
Now it is an ordinary tea set, and the cultural relics of the Oriental world are not worth much at this time.
Although Ferdinand did not bother to collect them, his reputation as a hobby of oriental cultural relics spread and he received many such gifts.
Ferdinand didn't have the time to distinguish between the real and the fake, anyway, whether the current things are real or fake, if they are put for a hundred and eighty years, they are all cultural relics.
After a while, Alice interrupted Ferdinand's YY plan and whispered, "Your Excellency, Mr. Ferrantz is here!" ”
Ferdinand woke up from his fantasy, patted his forehead, paused for a few seconds and said, "Oh, let him in!" ”
Alice smiled and withdrew, and after a moment Felanz walked in: "Your Excellency the Grand Duke is well! ”
Ferdinand put down his teacup, looked at Ferrantz and asked, "Hmm! Do you remember the rose essential oil I mentioned to you? ”
Without the slightest hesitation, Ferrantz immediately replied: "Of course, we still have sales in Volvo stores!" ”
Ferdinand said casually: "If I decide, how difficult will it be to enter the processing and manufacturing of rose essential oil now?" ”
Ferrantz asked himself, "Difficulty? There is no difficulty! Bulgarian rose essential oil has been processed for hundreds of years, and there is no technical difficulty! However, this is a labor-intensive industry, and profits may not be optimistic! ”
Ferdinand smiled and nodded, and then asked, "What if technological innovation could be carried out to increase the extraction efficiency tenfold?" ”
Ferrantz was taken aback, then replied, "How is this possible?" Your Excellency, don't say that it will be increased tenfold, even if it is doubled, it is worth our great investment! ”
Ferdinand explains: "There is a process in which the roses are permanently soaked and fermented with 15% table salt, and then distilled. ”
"Doing this, on the one hand, prevents the roses from rotting and spoiling, and on the other hand, allows the oil in the flowers to diffuse, and can also increase the production of essential oils."
"Of course, the quality of the rose essential oil extracted in this way will be reduced. We can divide it into different grades with essential oils extracted by traditional processes! ”
"Basically, the process has not changed much, and theoretically, the extraction rate of essential oils can be increased tenfold! How soon will you come up with a feasible plan? ”
Ferrantz thought for a moment, and then said cautiously: "Your Excellency, we need to organize people to do comparative experiments to accurately calculate the growth rate of production, and also determine how much the quality has decreased. After a thorough analysis of the international market, a plan can be made! ”
Ferdinand nodded in satisfaction, thinking to himself: Felanz has grown up, if he had hastily come up with a plan before, and then ask him where the method came from.
"Well, you can do it!"
"By the way, the place where roses are grown, I have already chosen Kazanlak Rose Valley, that place has always been the world of roses!"
Ferrantz was slightly surprised, but immediately said, "Okay, Your Excellency, I know what to do!" ”
Ferdinand replied, "Yes! ”
And then he said: "Not only that, Bulgaria is now full of roses, and we can also do peripheral development!" For example, you can make tea from flower petals, or process them into drinks, or even process rose biscuits with flour, etc., you can try them often! ”
Felanz was often influenced by Ferdinand's astonishing remarks, and was also stunned. In the eyes of ordinary people, in addition to being processed into rose essential oil, roses can only be used as gifts between lovers.
As a result, Ferdinand came up with so many ideas all at once, all of which were theoretically feasible. And the point is that it seems to be related to eating, forgive him! The characteristics of the big foodie empire have changed their essence even if they have crossed over!
Looking at Ferrantz's stunned expression, Ferdinand shrugged helplessly. sighed: "Felantz, you are still too young, you need to experience!" It's just such a little thing, and it scares you~~"
Ignoring Ferdinand's pretenses, Ferrantz left the palace in a daze. As he walked, he pondered, "Can roses really be eaten?" Have you ever eaten it? Otherwise, why did you come up with a lot of suggestions, all related to eating? Why not process into something else? Soap, soap, shower gel, shampoo ......"
The brain-opening Ferrantz was out of control and made a lot of ridiculous products around roses. There are occasional successes, but most of them are hilarious!
Ferdinand never imagined that his proposal would open Ferranz's brain. The famous "Rose Collective" in later generations was thus formed.
Of course, there was no shortage of farces, and the great Bulgarian director of later generations, the Bulgarian Demon King, also made a special documentary movie "It's All Caused by Roses"!
