Chapter 69: Persecution (I)

“…… Okay" To the surprise of Master Liu and Sister-in-law Lin, the shopkeeper nodded decisively, "I want all these incense......"

Who can this little girl make a pot of such a superb incense by mistake, if not, he will be out of print

Even if it could, with Lin Hai's shrewdness, the price would not be lower than twelve.

Shopkeeper Qi made a quick decision with his keen eyes as a businessman.

His offer just now was a little less

"This ......" Lin Hai regretted for a while, he paid attention to a letter in business, but as soon as he hesitated, he nodded, "Okay ......" turned around and asked Sister-in-law Lin, "How many ...... are out of this pot?"

"This ......" Sister-in-law Lin hesitated for a while, and also felt that the price was going to be lower, and she wanted to sell less.

"Five thousand one hundred and seventy-two ......," Mu Wanqiu replied casually, her tone extremely relaxed and joyful.

Frustrated, Sister-in-law Lin glanced at Mu Wanqiu fiercely.

With such a good memory, he glanced at her appreciatively, Lin Hai nodded, turned to the shopkeeper Qi, "Just give Brother Qi five thousand......" Pointing at Mu Wanqiu, "Brother Qi, this incense was made by her by mistake, I have to leave some research ......"

Seeing that Lin Hai gave all the credit to Mu Wanqiu, Master Liu pursed his lips unnaturally, and looked at Mu Wanqiu's eyes full of gloom.

"Okay, just according to what Brother Lin Xian said, but ......" he changed the topic, "If Brother Lin Xian wants to produce this kind of green fragrance again in the future, the first one will be supplied to me...... "I didn't even look at the yellow fragrance in Mu Wanqiu's hand.

"Don't worry, it's a definite ......," Lin Hai laughed.

neatly carried the bag Qingxiang into the carriage, and Ah Rong turned around and greeted, "...... Shopkeeper Qi, the incense has been installed......"

Saying goodbye to Lin Hai, the shopkeeper walked out of the house, and met Mu Wanqiu, who was swinging by the well, he subconsciously stopped, looked at her thoughtfully, and his lips moved.

"Shopkeeper Qi, please ......" Lin Hai called behind him.

Raising his foot suddenly, the shopkeeper Qi walked towards the door.

Loosening his head, Mu Wanqiu turned to look at his back.

Dragged by a wooden bucket full of water, the wheel on the square well quickly reversed, and when he heard a loud bang behind him, the body of the shopkeeper shook and he stepped out of the door without hesitation.

Mu Wanqiu sighed inaudibly.

This period of life in Lin Ji was the most difficult and darkest day of her life, and she was so eager for someone to take her away from Lin Ji and leave this tricky and critical Master Liu.

It's a pity that things are often like this, it's easy to add icing on the cake, but it's hard to send carbon to snow.

If Shopkeeper Qi can resolutely take her away at this time, with Mu Wanqiu's temperament, he will definitely wholeheartedly help him become the richest man in Shuoyang, the richest man who can compete with the four major families

Shopkeeper Qi No, his inadvertent decision made him miss out on Shuoyang's richest man.

……

“…… If you think about it carefully, do you miss any mistakes? Sister-in-law Lin made an exception and invited Mu Wanqiu into her main house, took her hand and sat on the edge of the kang, and personally poured a cup of Biluochun and handed it to her, "Did you add it during the dough process, and you even forgot it?"

Looking at the Biluochun in front of Mu Wanqiu's eyes in a blue and white porcelain bowl, Master Liu's face couldn't be darker, and it was as cold as ice.

“…… I'll just sift the wood powder first, and then ......" Mu Wanqiu repeated what she had said before for an unknown number of times, until Sister-in-law Lin frowned, and she stopped talking, "...... Then you come in and say okay, and then you start to make incense, that's all. ”

I want to use her secret recipe, and I really treat her as a three-year-old child

Originally, I thought that Sister-in-law Lin would talk to her alone, if she was willing to hire her as a perfumer, let her and Master Liu be on an equal footing, even if the salary was less than Master Liu's, she didn't mind, and the reason was also thought of, just said that it was a secret recipe left by her father before his death, and she and her mother didn't know how to make fragrances, and they had never tried it, so they didn't dare to say it.

The secret recipe of perfumer is the lifeblood of the perfumer, even if it is the owner, it is not allowed to ask and ask for it, unless it is bought at a large price, this is an unsuccessful rule in the perfume industry of the Great Zhou, but Sister-in-law Lin actually coaxed her like a child, coaxing her step by step, which made Mu Wanqiu extremely disappointed, and she simply pretended to be stupid as before.

“…… If you think about it again, have you forgotten? Master Liu forcibly suppressed an inexplicable irritability in his heart, and tried to make his tone sound very peaceful, "If it weren't for the addition of other ingredients, the color would never change ......."

"No...... Mu Wanqiu shook her head vigorously, "...... I really don't. He said from the beginning, "I just sift the wood flour first......"

"Okay, okay, my ears are about to come out of calluses......" Until now, Mu Wanqiu has been repeating these words, and when she was about to say again, Master Liu finally couldn't help but wave his hand.

Mu Wanqiu took the tea and drank it one by one.

"That's right......" The tightly knit brows relaxed, and Sister-in-law Lin suddenly remembered that she had too little wood powder, which made Mu Wanqiu add more, "...... Where do you find wood flour? ”

Maybe there's something wrong here

"It's the back library...... looking up at Sister-in-law Lin, Mu Wanqiu said as a matter of course, "According to your instructions, I sifted the wood powder and went to the back library, and there was some cypress left, so I grinded ......it" The tone was extremely light, as if it was extremely natural to replace the wood powder with cypress powder.

"Wait, wait......" Master Liu's eyes lit up, "You say it again......"

"I finished sifting the wood powder, and then ......" Mu Wanqiu pretended to be deaf and dumb and angry at Master Liu.

"It's stupid, I didn't let you say this......" Sure enough, Master Liu's face darkened again, "It's ...... behind"

"Later......" Mu Wanqiu looked at Master Liu suspiciously, "Later, Sister-in-law Lin came in, she pressed the fragrant noodles and said okay......"

didn't come up in one breath, Master Liu almost fainted, opened his mouth to look at Mu Wanqiu's mouth, and it took a long time for her to come through one breath, and she didn't even have the strength to lose her temper, "You said you grinded the cypress branches as wood powder?" ”

"Yes...... Mu Wanqiu nodded as a matter of course, "...... Isn't cypress also wood? The master said that wood flour is ground out of wood, and I didn't find sawdust in the back warehouse, so I ...... "I suddenly understood," ...... Did the master say that the problem was in this cypress powder? ”

"Wood flour is the aggregate for making incense, as long as there is no peculiar smell......" Sister-in-law Lin explained to Mu Wanqiu with rare patience, and suddenly turned to Master Liu, "There is a special cypress fragrance in that green fragrance, which is light and light, is it ......?"

Facing Master Liu's flushed face, her voice stopped abruptly.

"Let......'s go," Master Liu nodded excitedly, "Go and try ......"

Sandalwood fire, smell too much is easy to be impetuous, so to use tea feeding, but no matter how good the tea can not completely go to its dryness, the fragrance of cypress is light and quiet, and the impetuous atmosphere of sandalwood, the two complement each other, smell refreshing, this cypress powder is indeed a key part of Wei's secret recipe different from other Guanyin incense; However, just adding cypress powder, without adding the two key spices in Wei's secret art, it can't be blended with the clear and quiet, like being in a fairyland.

Looking at the backs of Sister-in-law Lin and Master Liu hurriedly going out, Mu Wanqiu smiled slightly.

In order to see the results as soon as possible, Sister-in-law Lin specially ordered the incense room, the weather was already warm, and a large fire was used, and in less than two hours, more than 100 sticks of wet incense were dried.

Suddenly, seeing the more than 100 incense sticks on the incense stand, the Guanyin incense that flashed with a faint halo of green and faint light, and the faces of Sister-in-law Lin and Master Liu bloomed with joy.

When they got their hands and lit them, both of them were dumbfounded, except for the color of this incense, the other characteristics are almost exactly the same as the yellow incense, the surface delicacy, texture, elasticity, and taste are compared with the pot that Mu Wanqiu came out of, that is, heaven and earth, clouds and mud

Will it be?

Master Liu stupidly looked at the green fragrance in his hand that was as rough as Huang Xiang, and his chest was like a piece of cotton wool, and he couldn't breathe.

She must have added something else

In an instant, Master Liu and Sister-in-law Lin both had the same cognition, and both of them looked at Mu Wanqiu, who was washing Xiangluo.

“…… In addition to the cypress, you also added? Stepping to Mu Wanqiu's side, Master Liu asked angrily.

“…… No more. Raising her head, Mu Wanqiu shook the water in her hand.

“…… You said panic," Master Liu's forehead was bruised.

“…… Just lie, can you tell me your secret recipe? Muttering angrily in her heart, Mu Wanqiu picked up the watery Xiangluo and pushed the door and walked out.

"You ......" turned around sharply and glared at Mu Wanqiu's back angrily, and Master Liu bit his lip with a layer of red marks.

"She doesn't want to say it......" Sister-in-law Lin suddenly understood.

No matter how stupid she is, she is not a child anymore

"But ......" Master Liu turned to look at Sister-in-law Lin, "why didn't she say it"

Mu Wanqiu relied on the ingredients she prepared to make the green incense crookedly, so she didn't tell her

Looking up at Master Liu, Sister-in-law Lin was speechless.

I looked at Sister-in-law Lin blankly for a long time, and suddenly, Master Liu raised his feet and walked out, blocking Mu Wanqiu, who was about to go back to the backyard, on the sandwich road, "...... Say, "How many taels of silver do you want?" ”

How many taels of silver?

How many taels of silver will you have to buy her peerless secret recipe?

It's a dream

Mu Wanqiu forcibly suppressed the anger that instantly surged up in her heart, "...... How many taels of silver? ”

"How much silver do you want before you can say ......" Master Liu's eyes were red as if they were on fire, "You added all the ingredients I prepared that day?" ”

“…… I didn't add it either. Mu Wanqiu's reluctant voice sounded as flat as water, and she bypassed Master Liu and walked towards the house without looking back.

“…… You are standing," Master Liu turned around and shouted at Mu Wanqiu's back.

After a pause, Mu Wanqiu immediately moved and continued to walk forward.

"Ah Qiu......" Sister-in-law Lin pushed the door out and stopped her.

“…… Is there anything else to do with Sister-in-law Lin? Mu Wanqiu turned around, revealing a face full of grievances.

"Your master has such a temper, don't take it to heart......" Seeing her aggrieved look, Sister-in-law Lin comforted her for the first time.

Hearing Sister-in-law Lin's unusually gentle tone, Master Liu's teeth creaked.

Glancing at her, Sister-in-law Lin turned around and greeted Mu Wanqiu, "You all come with me......"

Pulled the two to sit, and Sister-in-law Lin personally poured three cups of Tieguanyin, "Let's drink tea first and calm down......

"Sister-in-law Lin......" Master Liu was very dissatisfied with Sister-in-law Lin's courtesy to Mu Wanqiu.

"Master Liu takes a sip of tea first......" Sister-in-law Lin looked at her with a smile.

The heart of being looked at was furious, and Master Liu also calmed down, and Yu Guang secretly looked at Mu Wanqiu's expression.

No, this stupid little girl will also know how to blackmail her and Sister-in-law Lin with a secret recipe.

"That ......" Seeing that Master Liu calmed down, Sister-in-law Lin pondered and said, "The surface of this pot of green incense is delicate and elastic, it must be a good ...... of fragrant noodles."

"Sister-in-law Lin......" Master Liu's eyes widened in disbelief.

Yes By].
