It's really a change that changes destiny.

The little palace maid who was originally a subordinate of the Siyuan Bureau of Shangyi Bureau was in charge of giving fruits to each palace. She learned a lot of things in private, but at this time she used it and was responsible for Chameng Spice Shop.

The two daughters of Cao Ruomu and Cao Ruoying arrived. They were only responsible for announcing the results, reward standards for the official store last year, as well as rewards for the top three managers in the spice shop, and the other managers were responsible for paying the rest.

After entering the yard, Cao Ruomu and Cao Ruoying, two concubines from Lin'an Mansion, who were favored by the Ding noble family, were stunned in an instant.

It would not be an exaggeration to describe Liu Laolao entering the Daguan Garden.

The chief manager of the spice shop was just a woman in her early twenties. At this time, she was receiving the salary of an eighth-rank official and enjoying the dividends of the salary and land of the Red River Delta official. It was the time of high spirits. She couldn't help but say a few more.

"Our lord has foresaw the business here for a long time. Before we were in charge of Chameng, the first batch of craftsmen had already arranged the process and the process flow had already been planned. I originally brought us out of the palace, but I really thought it was going to die, but who thought it would give us a big future."

"This is on the left, covering an area of ​​thirty acres, and the spices are made for eating. To the right, there are fifty acres, and the spices are made for coating. Walk forward a mile and pass through a courtyard, where the canteen is, and then the most valuable place among the spices. Several masters are there, where they produce essential oils."

What are spices to eat?

Many are very expensive in Lin'an, but the noble families only store a small amount of things, and they are piled up here like mountains.

Perilla, which has only become popular in Lin'an City in recent years, especially the rare spices used to stir-fry snails and cook mutton. Even if a leaf is in Lin'an, it is worth a little money. If a piece of food falls on the ground, the Cao family's kitchen will definitely pick it up and wipe it with a clean cloth.

And here, a cart was pulled in like a horse-drawn for forage.

Then it piled on the ground like forage.

The chief manager of the spice shop said: "There are also planted in Lin'an, but the treasures in the palace are not good. Every year, sowing in March, seedlings emerge in early April, planting them in the garden in early May, see buds in early August, and seeds mature at the end of September. There are dedicated people to take care of them, and their responsibilities are not low, but there are many here."

"And this, Keke. The price of purchasing in the palace is also extremely expensive, and it is definitely not much worse than pepper. Here are countless wild ones in the deep mountains and forests."

Cao Ruomu asked: "Will these be shipped to Lin'an in the future?"

The chief manager of the spice shop shook his head: "I don't know, and I don't care about these things. I just care about the quality and handle the spices well. Then, if you need to be bottled, you will be bagged and packed. It's not my business to transport them there."

Cao Ruomu originally thought that it would be worth a lot of money to transport these to Lin'an.

Spices were originally produced in South Asia and Southeast Asia. They were previously controlled by foreign merchants or small tribute trades here in small quantities.

Cao Ruoying asked: "How many kinds of spices are there?"

The chief manager of the spice shop can answer without thinking: "There are thirty-seven types that can be used in the book, and some are under research, all of which are forty-seven. As you walk deep into the forest, there must be others. According to the taste, it is divided into seven categories: spicy, erect, fragrant, sweet, clear, bitter, and medicine. It is divided into three types according to its use, extrude fragrance to enhance flavor, remove differences and increase fragrance, and color."

It’s really a witness. Even if we come from the Lin'an noble family, the two sisters of the Cao family have never heard of dozens of spices they eat.

Then he went straight to the essential oil mill and passed through the middle area. There was an oversized tree in the middle. The two women of the Cao family even took a few more eyes.

When I arrived at the essential oil shop, I really couldn't even understand it.

The division here is more detailed.

First, it is medicinal use, what is for digestion, for skin, for breathing, etc. Then there are the classification of fragrance types, the classification of essential oil raw materials, etc.

What other flowers, leaves, roots, etc. are also very complex systems.

There were hundreds of glass bottles that were lined up in a row, but they could not be pure white glass bottles.

There are specialized in research.

If you use a pure white fine porcelain disc, you will have no instruments, it depends purely on the master's own abilities.

The chief manager of the Spice House asked someone to take a few small bottles, and after signing, he held the bottles in front of the Cao sisters: "This is lilac essential oil. In addition to fragrance, it can deworm and treat toothaches, and also make rough skin thinner. There are many uses. Jiaozhi City is still studying, so we only care about how to extract and produce it."

"And this one, the only one here. Rosemary essential oil is refreshing and refreshing, and the fragrance is also very strange. Speaking of which, even the empresses in the palace may not have heard of it, but used it."

I've never seen it before.

After all, this chief manager also came out of the Song Dynasty Palace.

Cao Ruoying asked curiously: "What is Longnaopang Xiang? Can we sisters see it with our own eyes?"

The manager of the spice shop covered his mouth and smiled: "The two ladies saw it just now. It was the big tree in the yard. I chose this place as the spice shop because of that big tree."

The tree is ten feet tall and seven feet thick.

During the Song Dynasty, the circumference was four feet and eight inches, and the length of an ordinary person was one circumference when he hugged him.

Come to the tree again: "Originally, we didn't know whether the dragon-naoxiang came from this tree, or some documents and classics copied from foreign merchants, as well as the documents and classics in the Dayue Palace. We only knew that this was the dragon-naoxiang tree. We have read this tree by those who know wood, and it is probably at least three hundred years old."

"Originally we thought that we should go south to find Longnaoxiang. Since the Tang Dynasty, there have been records of the Longnaoxiang, which comes from Poli. According to the Tang Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty, it should be 20 days south of Guangzhou Prefecture. A navy master calculated that he was afraid that it was still very far away, at least two thousand miles away."

"Take fresh and tender branches and leaves to extract the Longnaopang tablets."

"But according to research, we have discovered that there are five different types of similar trees. Although they can all make dragon scented tablets, their taste and yield are different. There are men who specialize in studying trees that are already studying. However, I know that building a farm tool for this tree is excellent, hard and durable, and not afraid of wetness. The weather here is so trendy, and many of the furniture originally brought from Lin'an have been broken."

The chief manager of the spice shop knew that these two were Han Jiang's concubines.

I also know what these two are from.

So, in addition to limited secrets, you can tell whatever you ask and say in detail.

Cao Ruomu began to envy her heart because she had heard that Han Jiang was going to use the wood from the Dragon Bobiao Xiang Tree to give Qian Xinyao a new house in the Xishan Villa.

This wood is so luxurious.
