The Evil King's Favorite Concubine: Genius Perfumer

Chapter 44
"Xiao Ji, I think you are still right."

"Ok?"

Ji Bingyun hummed lazily: "What do you want to say?"

"Strength is really important."

Sitting on the roof of the most remote warehouse in the Jiazi Workshop, Gan Tiantian raised his head and stretched out his hands in the air, and pieces of fine snow slowly fell on his palms.

The air was cold, her stomach that hadn't eaten dinner began to growl, and her tender face was hurt by the cold wind, but her emotions gradually settled down.

When she came out from Master Qiao's side, she didn't go to the big cafeteria for dinner, nor did she go back to the East Courtyard.

She needs to calm down, straighten out her thoughts, and think about what to do next.

"Of course."

Ji Bingyun appeared and "sat down" not far from her. At this moment, her thin ice-like figure seemed to be integrated with the snow-covered roof, and she suddenly felt like a fairy.

"I told you a long time ago. As long as you are strong enough, you don't have to care about other things at all!"

"Well, so I'm going to work hard."

Gan Tiantian stretched, straightened his body, and looked at the night sky with burning eyes.

If you don't work hard, will you continue to be bullied by that old woman?

Every apprentice who enters the workshop has his or her own reasons behind it: like Ruan Jingjing to accumulate qualifications to marry wealthy peers, like Tao Tao to reduce the financial burden on the family, and Su Cuiying who has no place at home , I can only go to the workshop to earn money to support myself...

Everyone has their own difficulties. As an apprentice, you can only suffer and suffer, and you can live a good life only when you are tempered by the master to be docile.

But why does she want to equate herself with others?
She has many conveniences that others can't match, such as the arrogant master beside her... Uh, he refuses to admit that he is his master.

She is willing to have a good relationship with others, but it doesn't mean she is a natural masochist, she has to be angry to be comfortable.She entered the workshop as an apprentice in order to obtain the status of an official family member so as to protect her dear family members!
Otherwise, wouldn't it be nice for her to be a rice bug comfortably at home?

"Xiao Ji, I must pass the county-level incense workshop test next year." Gan Tiantian patted the crushed snow on his face with both hands, and the cold touch penetrated into his heart, stimulating every nerve of her excitement.

Now that Master Qiao has promised to stand up for her, she will show more achievements so that Master Qiao can see her value.Then, step by step to achieve your goals!
The next morning was the day when the workshops announced the results of the quiz for the apprentices.

Of course, in the Xiangfang, the name list will not be posted like in the school, but the masters will read the names one by one with the list.The person who read the name was expressionless, but the apprentices were all terrified.

As long as there is a record of failing the quiz three times, you have to be cleared and leave the workshop.For many apprentices, although working in Xiangfang is hard work, it is still a promising job, and everyone in the neighborhood is very envious.

If you are sent back home, you will not only lose your job, but you will also be gossiped by your relatives and neighbors along with your parents-"Then the boy and girl of whose family is lazy and stupid, and will be cleared out even after entering the workshop. Such people, in the future Who will tell them that they are good people?"...

In the C-size workshop, Master Zhu had a straight face, chanting the names of the apprentices as if squeezed out from between his teeth. The 21 workshop apprentices who took part in the quiz all lowered their heads and listened.

Hey, why haven't I read my name yet... Tao Tao heard that Ruan Jingjing and Su Cuiying had already read it, but she didn't have her name and Gan Tiantian's name yet, feeling a little uneasy in her heart.

"...Gan Tiantian, Tao Tao."

Ah... finally got it...

Just as Tao Tao wanted to breathe a sigh of relief, she suddenly heard Master Zhu's tone turn cold, and said in a deep voice, "Unqualified!"

what?
Tao Tao froze suddenly, stayed where she was, raised her head and stared at Master Zhu in silence.

The apprentices made noise for a while, some were puzzled, some were curious, and some were gloating. For example, after a while, Shao Meier happily said to her companions in a low voice: "Hee hee hee, I told you that the two of them cheated, so the masters won't let them Pass! Do you think it’s a big deal for you to pay ten more barrels of crude oil?”

"Why, why!"

Tao Tao finally found her voice, and protested weakly, but was stared back viciously by Master Zhu.She almost cried, she just felt soft under her feet, and kept thinking "I want to go home, I want to go home"...

"Xiao Tao, don't cry."

Suddenly, Gan Tiantian comforted softly in her ear, and she held her right hand in her palm: "Don't worry. I won't let us fail."

Ah... what is Tiantian talking about...

Before the dizzy Tao Tao could react, the people of the C-brand workshop had already been attracted by the owner and his party walking in outside the door.

The owner of the shop, Chen Wenjin, walked into the C-brand workshop for two consecutive days, accompanied by Master Qiao, the chief manager of the Jiazi workshop.

"Fangzhu, the tool I told you about is in this kitchen..."

Master Qiao didn't even look at the people present, and directly led the workshop owner into Gan Tiantian's remodeled stove.

When Aunt Xu arrived after hearing the news, Master Qiao had already explained the principle and usage of the bellows to the workshop owner, and affirmed that it was "a major invention explored by young apprentices under their own guidance".

Although Master Qiao is usually low-key and low-key, if he really wants to accomplish something, he has all the means he should have.For example, why Aunt Xu couldn't come back in time was because the delivery time of Jiazi's warehouse changed, so Aunt Xu and Aunt Chen were busy counting there, which failed to interfere with Master Qiao's good plan.

In front of the overwhelmed owner and the smiling master Qiao, all the plans in Mrs. Xu's belly were ruined.If I had known it earlier, I would have let the workshop owner come and see the bellows first!
Who made her want to make the blueprint of the bellows by herself out of caution before claiming credit?Too late to regret!
Don't look at her playing prestige in front of Gan Tiantian, no matter how courageous she is, she wouldn't dare to confront Master Qiao hard.

In terms of qualifications and contacts, among the perfumers in Yujiang Mansion, Master Qiao is far above her, but he is a real old man.

Master Qiao used to be the manager of Yujiang Xiangfang, a government-level incense workshop. He was hired by Chen Wenjin to come to Yujinfang only because he lost his son in middle age, sadly returned to his hometown for the elderly, and was impatient to be restrained in the official incense workshop. sit in town.

In fact, Aunt Xu really didn't expect Gan Tiantian to invite Master Qiao.When Gan Tiantian mentioned Master Qiao yesterday, she thought the little girl was just bluffing.After all, Master Qiao has been ignoring the world for a long time...

Aunt Xu gritted her teeth and secretly hated Gan Tiantian. She never thought about what was wrong with her wanting to steal the fruits of other people's labor. She only thought about how to deal with that disobedient girl.

Unexpectedly, Master Qiao then suggested to Chen Wenjin that he wanted to transfer Gan Tiantian and Tao Tao to his Jiazi account, and—to accept Gan Tiantian as an official apprentice to learn from him!

"Oh, I'm getting old too..." Master Qiao sighed, and said to Chen Wenjin: "Master, you often advised me to take in a few apprentices to take care of me for the elderly, but I have never met a suitable good seedling. Although this girl is young, But he's talented, smart and sensible."

"It's rare to meet a good child who is close to my eyes, so I will accept her as an apprentice and teach her well!"
