Chapter 63 Spices
The servants of the palace were summoned and told them the specific steps of distilling alcohol and purifying essence.
"You take a closer look, this is a briquette furnace is actually a cylinder, separated into two parts by an iron pestle, the upper is the furnace, the lower is the air inlet, there is a damper outside, when the gas is more, the fire is prosperous, the gas is less when the gas is small, the fire is small, this briquette is made of briquettes grinding and casting, and the combination of the two will have a magical effect."
Han Fei said that, he took it personally, took charcoal and wheat straw to start the fire, then put a briquette at the bottom, and held a clay sculpture tube as a chimney to stand on it.
Wang Shijie and the four of them stood together and whispered, watching Han Fei's movements intently.
After a while, the fire was blazing, and the briquettes were ignited, and then Han Fei stuffed the second briquette into the furnace and took down the small chimney at the same time.
At this time, the blue flame in the furnace burned vigorously.
"Brother Han Fei, this is not much different from a charcoal basin."
Zhang Liang has always been straightforward and fast-talking, and said first.
"It's a good thing...... Wei Zhuang said
"Oh, do you want Zilanxuan to help you sell it?" The Purple Girl asked
"Still a Purple Girl ...... Smart"
……
As soon as the stills arrived, the servants of the palace immediately set up the stills and used the briquette stoves made during this time to heat the alcohol and flavors underneath.
In the past few days, Zi Nu and Lang Yu have not escaped Han Fei's knowledge impartation, when the alcohol and essence flowed out of the still, the two of them took the exquisite porcelain bottle and put the two together, and began to mix and shake evenly.
In Han Fei's head, there are no less than tens of thousands of various types of perfume manufacturing methods.
In general, the perfume composition consists of fragrances, fixatives and alcohol.
Essence is naturally an essential oil purified from various plants, and fixative refers to things like balm, that is, things that contain more oil, similar to things in facial cleanser, and can also be used as foundation.
Han Fei is clear about the ratio of these three things, because the manufacture of the first perfume does not need to be tested at all, and it is very smooth.
The final job was to mix the three things together and stir them together.
Two sets of stills, one for distilling rice wine and one for distilling flavors, operate at the same time, and the rest of the people are shaking the porcelain bottles.
Han Fei also took a porcelain bottle and shook it.
"Childe, how long is this going to be shaken?" Half an hour passed, and Langyu was panting, spitting white mist from his mouth, and his jade face was flushed.
Han Fei said: "You open the cork and smell it, if the smell becomes even, it will be almost the same." ”
Lang Yu nodded, pulled out the cork and smelled it, and was stunned, "Childe, this smells so good!" ”
The purple girl also leaned over and smelled it, revealing a look of surprise, "This spice is certainly very fragrant, but this taste is different, it's just Han Fei, how to use this thing?" ”
In this day and age, spices are basically made into rouge, and the usage is basically divided into two types: compress and smoke, and his perfume is unique, he said: "It's very simple, just take out a little and sprinkle it on your body." ”
As a woman, she didn't have any interest in spices, so she poured a little perfume and smeared it on her face, and suddenly the fragrance wafted out, which was the fragrance of jasmine.
The comfortable smell made the purple girl envious, and she also poured a little and wiped it on her body.
"Well, it's much more comfortable than rouge, and the scent lasts for a day." Han Fei said.
Lang Yu only laughed happily at this time, sniffing himself from time to time, and sniffing the purple girl, like a child who has not grown up.
The purple girl smiled, this kind of thing called "perfume" by Han Fei is indeed extraordinary, this rouge will eventually be applied to the body, and it is easy to fall off, which is far less practical than perfume.
"Han Fei, if this perfume is given to the lady in the palace, the mother will be happy." The purple girl said.
Han Fei was relieved now, "Since this is the case, Fei Fei can rest assured, there are no less than a hundred bottles of perfume made this time, and the perfume in the hands of the two of you will be given to you." ”
"Gongzi Xie!" Lang Yumei smiled, saluted Han Fei, and held the porcelain bottle in his arms like a baby in Aster, for fear that Han Fei would regret it.
This time, compared to the spices, the amount of rice wine is too much, and after the flavor is used up, there is still a lot of rice wine left.
In line with the idea that it is shameful to waste and difficult to swallow after drinking, Han Fei turned this inferior rice wine into liquor.
"Li Si."
Han Fei still doesn't know much about the servants in the mansion, and the only thing that impresses him is this Li Si.
Because this Li Si can speak well, and his work efficiency is also good, and Aster's evaluation of him is also good.
"Childe, the little slave is here." Li Si trotted in front of Han Fei, "Childe, what do you command?" ”
Looking at Li Si, who looked the same as Sandezi, Han Fei said, "Go and prepare a few wine jars and distill the rest of the rice wine." ”
"Gotcha, Childe." Li Si immediately instructed the other family members to go to the warehouse of the palace to get the wine jar, and continue to distill rice wine here.
When the perfume was made, the rice wine was distilled repeatedly to obtain a high concentration of alcohol.
This time it was different, it was directly distilled at one time, and the original green rice wine turned into pure rice wine in a blink of an eye.
This time, the rice wine is mixed with the sweetness of the rice wine, but the alcohol content has been greatly improved.
The ancients were not drunk with a thousand cups, which was originally a low-degree rice wine, but when he met the rice wine he distilled, it would not be a thousand cups without getting drunk at that time.
Throughout the day, the whole Han Fu was busy distilling rice wine and perfume, and in the evening, all these raw materials were used up.
"Li Si, let people put away this still, don't let others see it, and don't say what it's for." Han Fei said that his own technology should be kept secret.
Li Si patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, son, I won't say anything about killing me." ”
Han Fei nodded, "Well, that's good, but there is still something to be handed over to you, these perfumes don't need you to send to Fei's mother."
"Yes, Childe......"
……
"Come early in the morning and take the liberty to disturb, and please forgive Han Fei."
The door of the private room opened, Zhang Liang saw Han Fei appear, and quickly got up and saluted Han Fei with an apologetic face.
"The ovary, no need to be polite. You must have arrived so early in the morning, so there must be something important, right? If I'm not mistaken, I'm in big trouble. Han Fei saw that Zhang Liang was the only one here, and his heart turned slightly, and he guessed the matter.
When Zhang Liang heard this, he couldn't help but show a wry smile, and then arched his hand with admiration: "I really can't hide anything from Han Fei." ”
Han Fei smiled slightly, sat down in front of Zhang Liang and spread his right hand and said, "If you have anything to say in the ovary, you might as well say it directly!" ”
"Early this morning, the servants of Zuo Sima's Mansion found that Zuo Sima Liu Yi had been killed in his mansion. However, the strange thing is that Ji Wuye took the initiative to recommend Brother Han to be responsible for investigating the case. ”
Zhang Liang frowned and told Han Fei what had happened.
When Zi Nu and Han Fei heard this, they subconsciously glanced at each other.
Last night, if it weren't for Han Fei's immediate rescue, Hong Yu would have died. And last night, Zuo Sima Liu Yi not only made a fuss about Zilanxuan after getting drunk, but also wanted to make trouble with jade.
It was precisely because Liu Yi made such a fuss that Lang Yu was taken to his room by the purple girl to appease him for a while. So in the end, Hong Yu was mistaken for a jade by a vulture and was almost killed.
"As far as I know, Liu Yi should be Ji Wuye's person. It stands to reason that when something like this happens, he should avoid outsiders interfering, and Ji Wuye's move is indeed a bit abnormal. If something goes wrong, there must be a demon! ”
Han Fei touched his chin, and a sneer flashed in his eyes.
"Liang, I am worried about this, so I came to Zilanxuan, hoping that Han Fei can make a move!"
Zhang Liang's words fell, and he saluted Han Fei with a sincere face.
"In that case, I'll go to Sima's Mansion with the ovary!"
"Thank you Han Fei, please!"
