The popularity of perfume is completely beyond Jiang Xingchen's imagination. His original idea was to help the Hua family occupy the high-end market of Yueying, and then sell ordinary fragrance powder to the outside through the membership system to attack Yangliu companies.
But he never expected that the influence of perfume was so great. Not only the four neutral kingdoms, but also the senior officials of the eight kingdoms that were hostile to the Qiankun Empire went to Yueying to buy perfume. If Xuanyuan Tianzong hadn't had too much hatred between Yueying and Yueying, many of them would probably have gone there.
Originally, he thought that the price of 1,000 yellow crystal coins was no longer low, but the Hua family had snatched the price of 2,000 yuan, and a bottle of Dark Night actually cost 20,000 yuan, which made him very ashamed. Now Qin Manwu and Wang Zhicheng both wrote to want to serve in perfume.
What Jiang Xingchen couldn't figure out is that the popularity of perfume is really exaggerated, far more popular than the previous life. But then again, although he didn't use perfume in his previous life, his classmates, especially female students, were quite useful. Several of the rich second generations in the family used high-end products. But in his impression, the perfume in his previous life was far less pleasant than Xianning made now.
"Is it because plants are different. The essential oils extracted from things that grow in a vital world can have greater effects...especially that dark night!" Jiang Xingchen thought to himself.
What he didn't know was that the plants used to extract Dark Night essential oil had that effect. At that time, Xian Ning widely adopted all rivers and used a lot of materials to experiment. As a doctor, Xin'er knew a lot of plants, so she was invited by Xian Ning. As a result, she recommended the love flower called Bian Tee and the vine called Tang Si. This was also the reason why Xin'er later said that she liked Dark Night!
When Jiang Xingchen came to the research institute, when she found Xianning, she was still guiding her men to compare perfume.
"Xianning, can the production of perfume be increased?" As soon as we met, Jiang Xingchen directly explained his purpose.
Xian Ning frowned, thought for a while, and said, "It's okay to improve it, but it will soon use up all resources. There are too many raw materials needed for essential oil refining. Often, hundreds of kilograms of petals can be used to extract one kilogram of essential oil... In order to last the aroma, the proportion of essential oils we use is very high. At least 20%. In other words, a kilogram of essential oil is made up at most fifty bottles of perfume..."
"I understand!" Jiang Xingchen nodded. He understood Xianning's meaning. That is to say, it is okay to increase the output, but the resource consumed is too large. In this case, even if the output is temporarily increased, the raw materials are not enough for future use.
In the first place, he planted several flowers on the hillside, but even if he used them to make essential oils, he would probably not keep up with the consumption of production.
Jiang Xingchen lowered his head and pondered. The perfume business is so hot that hunger marketing is no longer suitable. Now we have to continue to develop barren mountains and plant some plants needed for perfume production.
"Qin Manwu and the head of the Wang family had to let go for the time being. The development of barren mountains will not take place for a while... In addition, the cattle and sheep that were raised will also be moved! Xingchenling has many mountains and is not suitable for large-scale grazing. He wondered whether to slowly move to the curse land, at least there was a large plain..."
Jiang Xingchen pondered and didn't speak for a long time.
"Xingchen, what are you thinking about! If you want me to say, the production of perfume should be maintained first. If the resource development is too large, it will be useless in the future!" Xianning saw that Jiang Xingchen did not speak for a long time, raised his hand and pushed him.
Jiang Xingchen came back to his senses, looked up and smiled at Xianning and said, "I know this. I just figured it out, develop more hillsides and plant the plants we need, especially the thorny flowers and silk-wrapped vines!"
When Xian Ning heard this, her white face turned slightly red, and the stalks and silk vines extracted the essential oil of the night, and she could not know the effect of the night.
She knew that Jiang Xingchen had no other meaning, but she just felt embarrassed and quickly changed the subject.
"Xingchen, are there any research projects later? Now the people under the perfume are fully able to get started!"
"There are projects, but we cannot study them yet!" Jiang Xingchen said.
"What project, why can't we study it?" Xianning asked immediately. As soon as she heard about the project, her embarrassment disappeared instantly.
"Porcelain, glass, bicycles... these need to be studied, but no corresponding raw materials are found, so of course it cannot be carried out! Porcelain needs to find porcelain clay, glass needs to find white sand, or quartz stone, and a lot of alkaline is needed. There is no alkali ore, and it costs too much by purchasing it. Bicycles are not easy, at least we don't have rubber..."
As soon as Jiang Xingchen explained, he unconsciously said many words that had never appeared before. Xian Ning was stunned when he heard it, and he became more and more curious when he saw Jiang Xingchen's eyes.
In fact, since Jiang Xingchen launched research projects one after another, she was already curious. How much things did Jiang Xingchen have in his mind, paper, piano, syringe, glider, and other thoughts about the previous grenades, crossbows, etc. She sometimes wondered if Jiang Xingchen was a human being, otherwise how could he know so much? Now every time she finished researching a project, she would ask Jiang Xingchen for the next project, knowing that he must have it in his hands, which became a habit.
When she was free in her research, she often wondered if Jiang Xingchen had also obtained the remains, but the final conclusion was that this was impossible. Jiang Xingchen's early strength could not protect such things at all. In addition, Da Shang was once the most powerful dynasty, but the things recorded in Da Shang's remains in her hand were nothing like what Jiang Xingchen proposed.
When Xian Ning was stunned, Jiang Xingchen also stopped. When he saw Xian Ning's abnormality, he immediately realized that he had said too much!
"Haha...what, I just remembered that the Bauhinia Tour was almost here, and I had to choreograph the stage with Sister Wanrou..." As he said that, Jiang Xingchen was about to run. He had used this trick many times. Whenever Xianning was curious and asked him why he knew so many things, he would use the excuse to run away because he really couldn't explain it.
But this time, he didn't run away. As soon as he spoke, Xian Ning realized what he was going to do and reached out and grabbed his arm.
"Don't leave now! You have said so much, but there is no project you can do, that's not possible! Today you must leave a feasible research direction!"
When Jiang Xingchen heard that Xian Ning was not like before and asked him why he knew so many things, he breathed a little.
"Okay, let me think about it!" Jiang Xingchen said.
"You think about it, hurry up!" Xian Ning nodded.
"Well, Xian Ning, can you let go of my arm first!" Jiang Xingchen blinked and said helplessly.
"No!" Xian Ning shook her head and said, "What if you run away, I can't catch up with you!"
"Oh~" Jiang Xingchen was speechless. This elder sister is too naive. I want to study the topic for you, so why are you running?
"Think about it quickly, concentrate!" Xian Ning completely ignored Jiang Xingchen's expression and still grabbed his arm tightly.
Jiang Xingchen had no choice but to smile bitterly, then lowered his head to ponder.
After a long time, Jiang Xingchen didn't say anything. Xian Ning felt that his hands were hurting because he grabbed them. He couldn't help asking, "How about it, do you have any eyebrows?"
"You think the project is a strong wind, and you can think of it when you think of it!" Jiang Xingchen curled his lips.
"Why, is there something wrong with what I said? There are so many things in your mind, which are easier than the wind blows. I don't know how your head grows... What quartz stone, what kind of kelp..."
When Xianning mentioned this again, Jiang Xingchen subconsciously struggled to run away with his arm. But Xianning lived on him, and he didn't dare to exert force, for fear of hurting Xianning.
"Xian Ning, I have already thought of it, you can let go first!" Jiang Xingchen begged that there is no one in the room now, so it would be a bad idea if people see the current situation.
"No, you are too cunning. I will let go and you will definitely run!" Xian Ning shook his head decisively.
Jiang Xingchen was speechless this time, so he had to let Xianning grab it and tell him the new project he had just thought of.
"What we make this time is called soap!" Jiang Xingchen said.
"Soap? What is this and what is it for?" Xian Ning was stunned for a moment and asked. The name sounded a bit strange.
"This kind of thing called soap is used for bathing and bathing, which can fully wash away the oil on people..." Jiang Xingchen began to explain the purpose of soap little by little.
Now limestone is available. After calcination, it is quicklime. Adding water can make it ripe lime. Then reacting with alkali can result in caustic soda. With oil and fat, there are also essential oils. Making soap is not difficult.
After hearing Jiang Xingchen's explanation, Xianning's eyes became brighter and brighter. If it were as described by Jiang Xingchen, once the soap was produced, it would definitely be very popular and the economic benefits it brought were quite great.
Then, Jiang Xingchen explained the general process of making soap again. Xianning nodded repeatedly when he heard this, and the hand holding his arm unconsciously released.
As soon as Xianning let go, Jiang Xingchen quickly accelerated the explanation and took advantage of Xianning's thoughts and said goodbye and left.
This time Xian Ning ignored him, but turned around and took out paper and pen, recording everything Jiang Xingchen said just now...
After Jiang Xingchen returned to the new town, he went directly to the city hall, found Grandpa Fu, and proposed a plan to develop the mountain.
Since the World Trading Company had just sent 30 million yuan of 50 kilograms of tea, Grandpa Fu was still rich, so he immediately agreed to Jiang Xingchen's request.
Considering that the empire was rebuilt after the disaster, the number of personnel was tight and it was difficult to recruit workers, Jiang Xingchen wrote a letter to Wu Tianfeng and asked the Seventh Army to second 3,000 people.
At this time, it was June 20th, and Jiang Xingchen's 20th birthday was approaching. Since Mei'er was about to come back, the Bauhinia tour also required him to participate in the arrangement. Now he was going to develop mountains, so the plan to go to the Cursed Land was temporarily put on hold.
But at this moment, Jiang Xingchen received a letter from Han Xiaowu, saying that they were in trouble! (To be continued, please search for Piaotianwen, the novel is better and faster!
