Perfume Alchemist

When Ah Hao was talking, his black eyes kept absolutely quiet, only blinking from time to time.

Ah Hao's thoughts immediately diverged.This thing doesn't seem to have ears, how did Xia Duo hear what he said?

But Xia Duo did have his own way, and he could hear his complaints.

"I have already notified Natasha. She will definitely help you resolve this matter to the end." Xia Duo's calm voice came from between the split lips.

"It's normal for Shirley to be blocked by the prophecy. From the beginning, I didn't expect the prophecy-type arcanist to be useful."

Ahao looked at him puzzled: "So you know the reason? Then how can we bypass this restriction?"

"Uh..." the big black eyes suddenly jammed, "I can't get around it. I only know that Arthur can block the prophecy, but I never knew how he did it. As I told you, he has always been a mysterious person. "

"But don't worry, Shirley, I will help you find it. I have already made progress here."

"I see that Natasha is already on the way, and she is expected to arrive at your side in 10 minutes."

The black eyes blinked twice again, and the supporting feet below jumped into the shadows.

"Hey, wait, what's the progress on your side?"

Halfway through Ah Hao's words, he saw that the thick shadow around him had returned to normal.

Xia Duo has already left here.

He scratched his head: "This guy runs really fast."

There was a strange noise outside the perfume shop.

Ah Hao immediately went downstairs, and he found that all the customers also ran to the door to watch the excitement.Most of the other shop assistants were also absent-minded, looking out the door with erratic eyes.

Luke waved to him at the door, and greeted excitedly: "Come here, I'm in a good position!"

"Why are you so excited?" Ah Hao walked over, "I like to watch the excitement."

"It's mainly because the guy who just arrived seems to be taking the initiative to talk to you."

Ah Hao moved his gaze to the outside of the door.

Surrounded by the crowd, there is a stylishly dressed woman standing.

The people holding signs and banners surrounded her with a dazed expression on their faces.

She said: "AH perfume is obviously our savior for Chloe, what are you doing here?"

A man wearing a [I Chloe] turban on his head has no quarrels:

"Ms. Chloe, what are you talking about? Isn't this perfume company maliciously acquiring your brand?"

The man who yelled the loudest before had the most pitiful expression now.He was running around in a hurry like a puppy who did something wrong.

The woman named Chloe shook her head: "Wrong. The acquisition is true, but this acquisition is completely legal and compliant. Illegal acquisitions and hostile acquisitions are all rumors."

The turbaned man asked puzzledly: "But...why? Why did you sell the brand you created yourself?"

"Yeah, why?" Men and women holding banners all around also spoke out.

Ahao discovered a very interesting thing, Chloe's fans seem to be mostly male.I don't know whether they like the brand Chloe or the person Chloe.

Chloe bit her lips tightly, and then immediately let go: "Chloe perfume will not disappear, it will become the product line of AH perfume in the future and will be sold.

"Don't worry everyone, Mr. Ahao, the founder of AH perfume, is a very capable person. After the completion of this merger, he will work with me to develop new perfumes and start to reset the old perfumes.

"As long as you wait patiently for a period of time, you can buy better quality perfume."

"Now, please evacuate quickly and don't gather in front of other people's stores."

Under Chloe's appeal and publicity, the gathered fans quickly learned the "truth" of the matter.

"Let me just say it. Mr. Ahao was the winner of the Agadi Best Perfume Competition last time. How could he do such a thing." A surrounding girl also breathed a sigh of relief, and patted herself chest.

The friend beside her also laughed and said: "I've smelled the perfume made by Chloe. It took her three lifetimes to make a perfume like [One Thousand and One Nights]. I don't even know how AH would think of it. Go buy this kind of miscellaneous brand."

"Hush! The Lord is right next to you!" The girl widened her eyes and tried to cover her mouth.

The friend dodged deftly: "Hee hee, tell the truth."

Most people were "dissuaded" by Chloe.Only the man in the turban turned around red-faced and walked up to Candy who was standing at the door.

He bowed abruptly, and said to the bewildered Candy, "Miss Boss, I'm sorry!"

"Pfft!!!" Ah Hao, who was standing behind watching, almost spit out his mouth.

What the hell is the proprietress!
The turbaned man continued to say sincerely: "This time we listened to the rumors and brought you so much trouble!"

Candy helped him up in a little panic: "It's okay, as long as the matter is resolved, it's all a misunderstanding."

"Ok!"

Candy turned her head and looked at Ah Hao who was standing in the shop.

He was wiping his mouth gracefully with a silk scarf, as if everything was under control.

People holding banners at the entrance of the store were persuaded to leave one by one, and the onlookers saw that there was nothing exciting to watch, so they all withdrew.

Chloe breathed a sigh of relief, and glanced behind her secretly.

Following her gaze, Ahao saw an old acquaintance - Natasha.

She was standing quietly in the shadow of the two buildings, observing the situation here.

AH Perfume Center Avenue store, third floor.

Natasha, who was wearing a long purple dress, bowed her head deeply to Ahao: "I'm sorry, I'm not good at things, and I've damaged the brand's reputation."

Ahao waved his hand: "It's okay, just settle it. Speaking of which, why does that person named Chloe listen to you so much?"

Natasha secretly observed Ahao's expression, and was relieved when she saw that he really didn't seem to care much.

"Chloe is a cousin."

The first sentence she said casually shocked Ahao: "What do you mean?"

"Chloe publicizes that she is a pure young lady, and her family has the blood of a downcast royal family or something.
"But she's just a village girl. She was a widow before she came to Agadhi to work. Not only did she have a husband, but she died."

"A woman who comes to Agadi alone, what capital does she have?" Natasha chuckled, "She can get to this point, who knows how many men's beds she has climbed into."

"As far as I have records, there are at least a dozen. She doesn't want to lose her reputation, so she can only obey me obediently."

This is too exciting.

Ah Hao covered his head: "Then she still dares to let people come and destroy it? No, she didn't call those people outside?!"

"That's right." Natasha sighed, "So it was indeed my negligence. I thought everything would be fine if I got hold of her."

"But I forgot about the men on her."

"It is estimated that there are one or two people who have 'injected' her before, and they are not happy to see the current situation, so just"

"It's a good thing [Chloe]'s fans, most of them are quite obedient to her. As long as she comes forward, others won't be able to make trouble."

"I will find out those who spread rumors."

Ah Hao rubbed his temples: "You can just settle this matter, I don't want to get involved too much."

"Yes. But." Natasha hesitated to speak, "Chloe is down there. She is the perfumer of her own brand, do you want to meet her?"

".Let's see each other."

"Ok."

Natasha walked down the stairs calmly and quickly.

Ah Hao walked to the handrail on the third floor.Here, you can clearly see the situation on the first floor.

Candy was very excited and was giving high fives to the shop assistants around her.They laughed and laughed, as if they had won a battle.

The customers in the store also smiled and looked at them, looking quite tolerant.

Ah Hao counted and found that there were only a lot more customers in the shop than in the downtown shop.

I don't know what's going on with Cherry. Has the old store in the lower city experienced the same thing?

Just when Ah Hao was thinking, a cold female voice came from behind him.

"Sometimes I really envy people like you."

Ah Hao turned his head and saw Chloe, who was wearing an off-white short jacket and drapey trousers, was walking up.

Ah Hao asked with interest: "What kind of person?"

Chloe's eyes are not weak, but there is a trace of firmness hidden deep inside.

"Talented people. You just need to give full play to your talents that are about to overflow, and other dirty work will naturally be done for you."

Ah Hao smiled embarrassingly: "I don't even know if you're praising me or hurting me. Sit down first, let's chat."

Chloe graciously sat where Natasha had sat.

Then she sighed, her hair fell down naturally, and her demeanor changed, she was no longer as strong as before, but instead revealed a delicate sense of fragility.

She took the initiative to say: "Actually, I don't dislike this acquisition."

"How to say?"

"The Chloe brand is complex, as you probably know. Coupled with the fact that the plate is getting bigger and bigger, I often feel like I can't fully control it lately."

“After this acquisition, I was able to refocus my attention on fragrance, which is actually not bad.”

Ahao observed her reaction: "So what you said below is serious? You want to cooperate with me to make perfume and optimize it for you?"

"Of course." Chloe said without hesitation, "It's better to say that I will agree to this acquisition because I have the opportunity to get along with you."

"Agadi people think highly of themselves and look down on foreigners like us. I wouldn't do that."

"Because I have worked hard step by step in this quagmire, I know it clearly.

"How terrifying is a person like you who can do this with just strength."

Ah Hao smiled and shook his head: "You are serious."

"But for cooperation, I don't have much time right now. I'll come to you when I'm free."

Chloe nodded and took out a small satchel by her side.

She placed the three bottles of perfume she had with her on the table.

"Here is a fragrance I developed myself. You can try it out when you have time."

"Then I'll leave first. I have to deal with the handover of the factory. About next week, the factory will be vacated. At that time, I will hand it over to Ms. Natasha."

"By the way, the store is currently conducting the final price reduction sale. The old inventory is estimated to be emptied soon."

"Ah."

Chloe lowered her head slightly to Ahao, and left the third floor.

Ah Hao breathed out, and casually picked up the perfume left by Chloe.

Chloe's perfume bottle is well-behaved, the only thing that stands out is the ribbon on it as an accessory.

Pink, light green, flesh-colored, ribbons of different colors give the perfume a clear distinction.

But taste.
Ah Hao lightly pressed down on the nozzle, and sniffed the air.

This is a rose and fruit fragrance.

But the taste is very simple, and the overall feeling is very ordinary.

Ahao always felt that he had smelled a similar smell somewhere - and it smelled better than it.

All in all, this is a relatively average bottle of perfume, the personality is not outstanding enough, and the taste is not bright enough.

But as long as the price is moderate and the store decoration is sweeter, there will be ladies who are willing to spend money to buy this bottle of perfume.

It fits the positioning of a small brand like Chloe.

Ah Hao simply smelled all three bottles of perfume.

Then he discovered that they all smelled of roses!The taste is not bad, but the front has been changed.

Using peony flower, lemon and apple as top notes respectively, three bottles of perfume are created.

Ah Hao's pupils began to tremble:

"Isn't this cheating money? There is also this way of producing perfume?!"

He felt himself overwhelmed.

If he also changed the top notes and released perfumes, wouldn't he be able to release dozens of styles? !

Ahao covered his face with one hand, and decided not to do such an unscrupulous thing.

At most, consider a few special editions of the perfume, so that consumers should still be able to accept it.

Ah Hao casually put the three bottles of perfume into the ring, and was going to think about how to optimize it when he was free.

Ah Hao went downstairs and found Natasha who was casually trying on the perfume.

"I haven't had time to ask yet, how does it feel to be an arcanist?"

Natasha cautiously looked around, seeing that there was no one around, she looked at Ahao excitedly: "It's so cool! It's a bit embarrassing to say, but I'm busy experimenting with my [Voodoo Doll] recently." , that’s why this mistake happened.”

Ahao waved his hand: "Don't talk about it, it's all over. Tell me about your doll, how does it work?"

Natasha took it out mysteriously, and placed her straw doll on the glass counter.

Ah Hao noticed that a note was pasted on the doll's head, with the words [Villard] written on it.

Natasha explained: "This is my political enemy. He always attacks me in meetings and privately wants to have a 'deal' with me. I don't agree, so he said harshly that he will continue to attack me. In short, it is quite Nasty guy.

"I collected his hair two days ago and stuffed it into the doll."

Natasha took out a handful of long nails and pierced them deeply between the doll's legs.

Just looking at it, Ah Hao felt chilly below him.

"Are you here?"

"Curse him." Natasha said proudly, "I drove a nail in yesterday. When he went to work this morning, his face was pale and his feet were weak."

"As long as I keep piercing for seven days, it will be difficult for him to 'stand up' again in the future."

In Natasha's voice, there was a hint of schadenfreude and happiness.
