In the cold winter, the sky is low, and the clouds are black and oppressive, as if they are about to fall.

The weather is getting colder day by day.

A few days ago, Lin Wangshu came back and drew a simple hot pot diagram for Lin Qingyun, asking him to help find a blacksmith shop in the city that could make this pot.

Lin Qingyun stared at it for a long time, and was explained by Lin Wangshu before he barely understood the general requirements of this pot.

Now he was carrying two pots made from the blacksmith's shop, and hurried home. I really don't want to be outside for a moment.

At this time, Lin Wangshu was sitting at the table in a daze.

There was a small ball of fur on the table, the fur was snow-white, but it was contaminated by something, and there were some reddish-brown marks.

It was the half of Lin Wangshu's sleeve that was soiled when he ate pomegranates before.

The fur on the cuff of the sleeve was removed by the first peach, and a new one was sewn up.

The one that was dismantled was looked at by Lin Wangshu for a long time, and he had no clue. Pomegranate juice is really difficult to clean.

Chu Tao came in with refreshments, and saw Lin Wangshu staring at this mass of things without blinking, and couldn't help asking, "Miss, I've been looking at this fur for a long time, but what are you going to do?" ”

Lin Wangshu's good-looking brows were about to be twisted into a dead knot, and his little face wrinkled and asked, "Chu Tao, what do you use to wash your clothes on weekdays, can you wash this?" She said as she handed the cuffs on the table to Hatsumo.

Chu Tao took it, glanced at it, and shook his head with a little hesitation, "Miss, I washed this when I removed it before, but it really can't be washed off." What we do in our laundry on weekdays is plant ash, or pancreatic honey locust and other things. ”

Lin Wangshu became interested, "Then, do you say that there are more people using this pancreas or honey locust, how about it than drafting wood ash?" ”

Chu Tao put the cuffs on the table, bent down and poured a cup of tea for Lin Wangshu, while explaining to her: "Ordinary people use plant ash, but although these honey locusts and pancreas are not particularly rare things, they are complicated and time-consuming to make, so the price will be relatively high, and they are generally used by rich and noble people." ”

Lin Wangshu nodded, she did have some ideas of making handmade soap, but now that she heard Chu Tao say this, she dispelled this idea.

The materials used to make soap in this dynasty are not easy to find, and even if it is made, it is the most basic ancient soap, which is no different from the pancreatic honey locusts they use now.

"Hey." Lin Wangshu sighed and shook his head, it seems that this handmade soap is different. She had been on a whim, and when she saw the stain on her sleeve, she thought that maybe she could try it, but it was obvious that this path would probably not work.

"Forget it, Chu Tao, prepare some pen, ink, paper and inkstone for me." Lin Wangshu drank all the tea that Chu Tao had poured just now, and turned his head to her and commanded.

Hatsu Tao went out to prepare these materials for her.

A few days ago, in the Li Mansion, Lin Wangshu and Li Yuanyuan discussed for a long time and decided to find out the various markets in Yanling first. From the livelihood of restaurants and restaurants, to the trivial lives of ordinary people.

If you want to make money, you must first know the preferences and trends of the market. Take the previous lip balm as an example, what Lin Wangshu sells is its novelty and chic. So in addition to lipstick, the two of them hit the idea on jewelry again.

At this time, Li Kite is immersed in painting the design of the hairpin, the hairpin of this era is good-looking but there are too few elements, either flowers or birds.

Li Kite painted for three or four days, and piled up a number of sketches in front of him.

She picked a few of the sketches that looked good, and added details little by little.

What is being painted is a golden step, the hairpin body is painted with auspicious cloud patterns, and at the end is a golden bird soaring in the shape of a half-moon, and the tail feathers are drawn with a half-shaded sunrise. The tassel fell from the beak of the sacred bird, and some beads were strung at the bottom to decorate.

Li Kite drew for a long time to polish the details, and then picked out some design drawings in a more concise style, ready to find Lin Wangshu.

It was almost noon, and Mrs. Li was looking after the dishes in the kitchen at noon, when she saw Li Kite running towards her with a few pieces of paper in her hand.

"Oh, you slow down." Mrs. Li brushed the hair on Long's shoulders for her, her eyes were full of gentleness, "What's the matter with finding A-Niang this time?" ”

Li Yuan shook the drawings in her hand at her, a little coquettish: "Auntie, can I go to Wangshu?" I hadn't seen her in a few days, so I went out for her and had a meal outside. ”

Mrs. Li pinched her nose and said dotingly, "Can I still stop you?" Go ahead, stay safe, and let the butler prepare the carriage for you. ”

"Yay!" Li Yuanyuan's heart blossomed, and she went to the housekeeper to prepare the carriage happily.

Mrs. Li smiled and shook her head, she was still a child after all.

Before, she saw recipes for making facial oil and hand guards in the space, and she was copying them down, and she had already tried to make a few cans.

It is indeed easy to use, and the materials can be found in this era, and it is not a precious material, but the effect is wonderful.

However, this method is a bit complicated, and she doesn't have much effort to do this all day now, so she simply copied the recipe and found a workshop specializing in ancient cosmetics to sell it.

As soon as Fang Zi finished writing, he heard a girl in the courtyard come over to spread the word, saying that Lin Qingyun had come back with two strange-looking pots, and called her to come over and have a look.

Lin Wangshu was overjoyed, dropped his pen and ran to the front hall to see. "Wangshu is here? Come over and see if it's the pot you said you said. Lin Qingyun pointed to the table next to him and smiled at her.

Lin Wangshu approached, and there were two mandarin duck pots of the same size on the table, and the middle was separated like Tai Chi. She reached out and touched it, the thickness was right, and the appearance was the same as that of modern times. I can't help but admire the skill of the person who made this pot.

She nodded with satisfaction and thanked Lin Qingyun: "Thank you, Second Uncle, it's exactly the same." “

"What are you polite to your second uncle?" Lin Qingyun waved his hand, looked at the two pots, and was a little puzzled, "It's just that this pot is so strange, Wangshu, what are you going to use it for?" “

Lin Wangshu smiled mysteriously at him, "Second uncle, you'll know later." ”

So she called Chu Tao with a smile in the confusion of Second Uncle Lin, and went to the kitchen with the pot.

When Mrs. Li from the kitchen saw Lin Wangshu coming, she hurriedly motioned for the others to stand up and salute her. Lin Wangshu and Chu Tao were carrying a pot in their hands, and she waved her hand at these people, indicating that she didn't have to be polite.

Chef Wang ran to her side, wiped the sweat on his head, and was a little surprised: "Why did the young lady come here, the kitchen smells of oily smoke, don't smoke you." ”

"It's okay, I'll come over and see what you should do." Lin Wangshu put the pot in his hand on the table next to him and waved his hand indifferently at the few people next to him.

Several people saw that the appearance of this pot was a little strange, and they couldn't help but guess.

"Miss, did you bring a pot here?"

"Why does this pot look like this, how is this going to be burned? It looks like a basin. ”

"I look like a basin, but this basin is still separated in the middle."

Chef Wang looked at the mandarin duck pot for a long time and didn't see anything, and asked curiously, "Miss, what are you?" What's the use, is there anything we can do to help? ”

Lin Wangshu saw several people gathered in front of the pot, one by one curious, and a little couldn't help laughing, "That's the pot I made, and it's the most comfortable to eat hot pot in winter." Can you help me? ”

When several people heard this, they immediately said that they could help, but how to use this pot made it difficult for them.

"It's really a pot, that miss, how to use this pot?"

"What have you prepared for lunch?" Lin Wangshu looked around the kitchen.

Chef Wang staggered his body and pointed to the side, "There is a big pot of freshly stewed duck soup, and four small stir-fries, two cold dishes, and two large meat dishes have been prepared, and they are all ready to wait for the next pot." ”

Lin Wangshu thought for a moment, and smiled at the chef Wang: "Okay, you will listen to me at noon today, I said that you will do the steps, will you succeed?" ”

A few people said that they could not do it, and they were commanded by Lin Wangshu to start preparations.
