When he woke up in the morning, Liu Meng got up sleepily. After booing, he returned to the house and habitually picked up the board hanging on the wall to look at it. A monthly calendar was posted on the board. On June 11, the words 'Today's Duty' were written.

Sighing, Liu Meng woke up his wife and children and the two dolls brought out of his second brother's house. After washing, the group headed for the school cafeteria. Along the way, people from other families met and greeted each other. Eat in groups.

More than half of the people are dragging their families, and about 20% of the single dogs are mixed in this growing number of people. However, it is not necessarily a single dog to come with a family, and although two percent of people have never married, they have borrowed regulations to bring family members out. For example, Lin Yuan, a member of the sixth class life committee, is only eighteen years old and is a single dog. But he took the three elder brothers out of the deep mountains of Fujian together. His three elder brothers have already married, each with three or four children, and this team of more than a dozen people is very imposing.

After eating with a meal ticket, you have to eat it in the cafeteria. Both adults and children are expected to wash their hands before meals and rinse their mouths after meals under the supervision of the Disciplinary Committee. Liu Meng felt that this set of rules was too big at first, and he was used to it after experiencing more. Now it is only supervised by the disciplinary committee, and in the past, in order to suppress the disobedient gang, the squad leader, the life committee, and Liu Meng and other sports committee members had to go into battle together and watch like thieves. There are also people who have been beaten with sticks for disobedience.

The rice bowl for eating is also provided by the school, and after eating, you will rinse your mouth and put the rice bowl in the washing sink. After washing his hands again, Liu Meng prepared to go directly to the school on duty. He said to a little girl about ten years old in his house: "Siniang, do you still want to go and play with that flowerer?" ”

"Uncle Zhu just uses flowers to make things, so he doesn't make flowers." The little girl struggled to defend the place where she went to intern, "Besides, Mrs. Hu will go too." ”

Hearing his niece talk about Hu Niangzi, Liu Meng's heart instinctively tightened. This Hu Niangzi is Hu Yuelian, the sports commissioner of Class 7, and her killing on the pirate ship frightened many big men. It also made many people choose to leave the fleet and join a profession that did not need to participate in battles. Without waiting for Liu Meng to be liberated from his uneasiness, he heard Liu Siniang continue: "Uncle, I already have a scientific name. Don't call me Siniang, it's not good. ”

"Good, good. Hongxia, Hongxia. All right. Alas......" Liu Meng sighed after finishing speaking, although he really wanted to talk to the daughter of the second brother's family, so that the girl would be obedient. But he still has a job. In addition, when I go to an internship, I also have an income of three dollars a day. Liu Meng really couldn't find a reason to refuse.

After Liu Meng and his niece finished talking, he said to the Hun family, "You send the child away quickly, and I will go to duty first." After finishing speaking, he whispered to the Hun family: "Don't be afraid when you listen to the class. Who is born to understand? You will do whatever the teacher tells you to do. Got it? ”

Liu Meng's Hun's family is a very ordinary rural woman, and she is always not used to going to school, and when she heard her husband say this, she replied with low eyebrows, "Okay." After waiting for a while, she asked Liu Meng again, "Have you asked me about the errand?" ”

"Don't worry. I'll try to find you a good one. After Liu Meng finished answering, he reached out and touched his son's little head, and went to duty.

Under the leadership of her aunt, Liu Hongxia first went to the class, and then went to her internship site under the leadership of the teacher. There were three girls who were about the same age as Liu Hongxia. When I arrived here, I saw that Hu Yuelian and several adult students had arrived.

The guy who was called 'making flowers' by Liu Meng was called Zhu Youqing, and he was a strong man like an iron tower. Generally speaking, if you see Zhu Youqing in the charging melee team, it doesn't seem so right to see him in such a place full of flower petals. However, Zhu Youqing didn't feel that there was anything wrong in the slightest, and when he saw that the students had arrived, he said "start working" angrily and assigned the work.

The air in the lab was filled with a sweet and greasy smell, the smell of a large number of rose petals. The little ones' job is to bring the petals that the women pluck from the flowers into the house in small bamboo baskets. When there are not enough petals, Liu Hongxia also has to participate in the work of picking petals. There is a sweet smell all around, and Liu Hongxia likes it very much.

The five rooms were empty, and the main instrument in the two rooms to the east was a large copper pot with a fire burning underneath. The inside of the copper pan was creamy white grease, and the petals were poured into the oil to boil. Zhu Youqing, who is like an iron tower, keeps stirring with a wooden stick, and when he feels that he is almost cooked, he uses a copper fence to fish out the residue of the petals and put in new petals.

Not every room was dealing with roses, and the three rooms to the west were filled with porcelain plates. The plate is smeared with a thin layer of grease and sprinkled with scented jasmine petals. Each shelf is dated and replaced regularly.

Putting a large handful of rose petals into the bamboo basket, Liu Hongxia stood up and wiped her sweat and ran to a teenager who passed by the processing site. She tugged at the sleeve of the young man who was walking in a hurry, "Brother Zhang, take me to the rooms in the west to have a look." ”

The little brother surnamed Zhang stopped and said to Liu Hongxia with a smile: "I'll ask Teacher Zhu later." Don't go now. ”

"Okay." Liu Hongxia nodded and said loudly.

"This little lady, do you want to go see the flowers, or do you want to go to see the plates?" Zhao Jiaren's voice sounded next to him.

As soon as Liu Hongxia saw Zhao Jiaren coming, she turned her head without saying a word and ran back to the place where she picked the petals, hiding behind the bamboo basket.

Zhao Jiaren sighed, he was sure that his 'little lady' was definitely not the reason to scare the little girl. In this era, women were called 'Niangzi', and little girls were called 'Little Niangzi'. It's a very bad thing to call a woman from an ordinary family a young lady. Much like the 21st century, Miss is the name of a special industry.

Seeing that he was so unlikable, Zhao Jiaren did not try to continue to be bored. He called the teenager who was talking to Liu Hongxia and several adult students to move the balsam, which had not yet solidified, to a separate room not too far away. In this deliberately ventilated room, the oil absorbs the fragrance compounds in the petals as they boil them. The job of these people is to pour high-purity alcohol into the grease that has not solidified and stir it thoroughly. Many people are smoked by the smell of steaming alcohol, and feel as if they are drinking.

Yuelian frowned slightly, but did not stop stirring. And that young man Zhang was even more unmoved, his eyes staring at the mixture were full of heat, and the movements in his hands were not in a hurry, carefully observing the slightest changes.

The aromatic compounds that were once inhaled quickly transferred from the grease to the alcohol, and as the grease solidifies, a dark liquid appears on top of the white grease. These liquids give off a strong aroma, which is the scent of flowers, and the fragrance of flowers grown on several acres is concentrated in this small amount of essential oil.

Zhao Jiaren immediately put these essential oils into a delicate small porcelain bottle, the mouth of the porcelain bottle was tightly plugged with a delicate stopper, the interface was sealed with wax, and then the mouth of the bottle was wrapped with a fish bladder and tied tightly with a rope.

Yuelian fulfilled one of her duties, she took a label, wrote the word rose in pencil and pasted it on the outside of the bottle. The label on the bottle was checked by two people before it was placed in a wooden box filled with cotton and cotton. All the people who handle it sign the record and sign the signature on the inside of the box. That's the end of the process.

The used oil is melted again and mixed with alcohol to separate the flavor compounds contained in it to the greatest extent. However, the quantity of essential oils that came out this time was very small, and the quality was much inferior to that of the essential oils that were isolated for the first time. This part of the essential oil is left to be used as a raw material for perfumes, and more as an experimental material for the trial production of new perfumes.

The separation went on for a day, and the wooden boxes of essential oils filled large boxes. Although Yuelian likes this taste, she feels that this packaging is too bluffing. After the work was over, Zhao Jiaren told Yuelian to go to the conference room for a meeting. When I arrived at the conference room, I saw that the cadres of the sixth and seventh classes had arrived. After Zhao Jiaren sat down, he immediately informed everyone, "This delivery to Quanzhou may be attacked by pirates." ”

"Pirate attack?" The cadres were very puzzled.

"Are there still pirates who dare to come to Fuzhou now?" The study committee members asked everyone's voices. The year before last, the pirates were dealt a heavy blow, and last year there was also a sweep. Fuzhou hadn't heard anything about pirates for months.

"Just to say there may be. The absence of pirates in Fuzhou does not mean that there are no pirates in Quanzhou. Zhao Jiaren still spoke lightly. There are some things he doesn't want to talk about at this time, since last year, it is no longer only the insect chrysanthemum mosquito coils that have made the Pu family miserable, but also the flavors and perfumes made by Zhao Jiaren. The spice business is like that once a year, and the supply bureau of flavors is very different. From spring to autumn, spices extracted from various flowers are constantly sent to the market, and even in winter, daffodil flavors are refined.

According to Qi Ye's latest report, the Pu family has begun to look for suppliers of these flavors and perfumes. It is said that Pu Shiwen, the son of the Pu family, said several times that he would clean up the guy who robbed the Pu family's business. Other intelligence networks also provided similar information, so Zhao Jiaren asked Qi Ye to start spreading the news of regular transport ships.

As Zhao Jiaren expected, as soon as she heard that she would encounter pirates near Quanzhou, Yuelian's eyes lit up. This made Zhao Jiaren very satisfied, the pirates may or may not come, at least Zhao Jiaren hopes that they will come. Now that he has a fighter like Yuelian who is eager to devour the life of the Pu family, Zhao Jiaren is very much looking forward to exerting the power in his hands.

"In any case, this is an extremely expensive shipment, so everyone should be careful." Zhao Jiaren ended the meeting with such words.
