The Pastoral Empress Merchant

Chapter 485 Hurrying to Beijing (2)
"How long will it take?" Cuihua asked again.

"About two quarters of an hour!"

It takes two quarters of an hour to know whether it will work or not. If there are no accidents, it should be ok. Although this distiller is not as advanced as the modern one, it is still ok.

Mu Jinxi stayed close to the connection port of the distiller until she heard the first drop of essential oil slowly flow out, condensed together, and finally fell tremblingly into the container, making a very small sound, Mu Jinxi finally With a sigh of relief, a smile appeared on his face.

Qiu Ju sniffed her nose and asked, "Xiaoxi, what is this smell? It smells so good!" It was like the smell of flowers, but it was more charming than the scent of flowers.

Cuihua also sniffed vigorously after hearing the words, but she didn't smell anything, and said strangely: "Qiu Ju, do you smell the fragrance of those words just now, I didn't smell any other fragrances. "

Mu Jinxi looked at Qiu Ju in surprise, can Qiu Ju smell it?No way, she heard the sound of the essential oil dripping from the extremely small sound based on experience, so she judged that the essential oil was successfully separated, but how could Qiuju smell it?This is a sealed container, and the interface has not been opened yet.

Mu Jinxi's eyes flashed and she asked, "Qiu Ju, what fragrance do you really smell?"

Qiu Ju felt strange when she heard Cuihua's words, she smelled it herself, why didn't Cuihua smell it, and when she heard Xiao Xi's question again, she couldn't help but wonder if there was something wrong with her sense of smell, but she After taking a deep breath, he nodded firmly and said: "Well, I really smelled a fragrance, a very peculiar fragrance, and I can't tell what it is, it's a bit like the smell of those flowers just now, but It's not quite like that."

A light flashed quickly in Mu Jinxi's eyes.

It seems that Qiu Ju's sense of smell is very sensitive. In modern times, such a sense of smell must be very suitable to be a perfumer. It seems that she needs to carefully consider whether to take Qiu Ju to the capital.

After a quick thought, Mu Jinxi smiled and said, "Qiu Ju, I never knew that your sense of smell is so sensitive, so you can smell it all."

But Cuihua cried out, "Xiaoxi, what are you talking about? Could it be that there is really a scent? But I only smelled the smell of those flowers just now, and I didn't seem to smell anything else. How could Qiuju smell it?" .”

"That's because Qiuju's sense of smell is more sensitive than yours, so she smells it and you don't. It's as simple as that, and you don't need to care about it. Everyone's sense of smell is different. Some people are more sensitive to certain smells. It’s just that you can smell very small smells, but some people don’t necessarily, just like you and Qiuju now. These flowers are distilled, and the essence inside will be separated to form essential oils, which is what I want. Qiu Chrysanthemum smells the fragrance of essential oil." Mu Jinxi said simply.

"Essential oil? What is this thing? What is it for?" Cuihua and Qiuju heard this word for the first time. They have heard of various oils, but essential oil... the essence of oil, so it is called essential oil?But how can there be oil in the flower?
Cuihua and Qiuju were filled with doubts again.

"What's the use? It's so useful, it's more expensive than gold." Mu Jinxi said with a smile.

Cuihua and Qiuju stared wide-eyed, "Huh? More expensive than gold? So powerful?"

"Yes, these things are very precious. It takes a lot of flowers to extract a little bit, and they are very useful, so the price will be very expensive, and most people can't afford it." Mu Jinxi said that in this era, if It is much better in modern times, with advanced technology and many bases specializing in essential oils, so ordinary people can afford essential oils, but pure essential oils are still very expensive, especially rose essential oil.
