Pursuing Immortality

When she fell, she found a sachet, one of the ones that Zeng Shufei bought, saying:

“Like this fine scent, I pondered it for one night yesterday, and I didn’t guess its material. I don’t want you to say that I have learned incense for three or four years, and I have collected a lot of good materials, and I know that I understand it. But since I smelled your fragrance and felt that I was busy before.”

“Oh, this is a half of the skin of Dingpi, one or two of jasmine, one or two of Gansong, one or two of chicken bones, two half of chrysanthemums, two or two of Lingling, plus half of Xinyi.”

Gu Yu didn’t hide it, just put the formula out: “Put these into powder and make a blend, and there will be an orchid-like taste.”

“Orchid? I always feel that this incense has a special meaning, no wonder, no wonder…”

The old lady licked the sachet and talked to herself, seeming to understand where the faint meaning came from. Then, she said with a smile: “Xiao Gu, even if you know the Fangzi, it is estimated that you can’t do this.”

“Ah……”

This time he was not modest.

The wonderful thing about the fragrance is that we use a seemingly unrelated material to express a unique charm.

For example, the rose is unrestrained, and the combination of the two is strong. When they are mixed together, they will have the fragrance of the sky and covering the earth. And Tianmu is quiet, the fragrant seeds are lonely, and the two are added to it. What would it be?

It’s very simple: it’s all done in the spring.

There are thousands of spices in the world, and the taste, nature and character are different. There are also thousands of perfumers, and the inheritance, technique, and understanding are also different.

Gu Yu can make an empty valley, which is high in the world. The same material, you can not make a change.

As for this incense recipe, Zeng Shufei asked yesterday, but he was too lazy to understand that the boy’s mind was swaying on his head. Now he volunteered because the old lady is not utilitarian.

This gesture also made the other side greatly appreciate, and the great grandmother passed the materials again, and suddenly startedled, said: “小顾, you seem to have no agarwood here?”

“Why do you have agarwood?” He also groaned.

“The incense is not to use…”

The old lady said halfway and slammed.

Gu Yu blinked and stunned: “Grandma, I understand what you mean. These precious spices like Shen Tanlong have been respected since ancient times. Now it is even more powerful, especially commercial hype, as if no matter what There is no grade for you to add a piece of sandalwood. You are a wealthy person, using rich and fragrant incense, including what you have learned, sent by others, recommended by the business, are rich and fragrant.”

“This can’t be said wrong, because there is a genre that is like this. They are fragrant according to the way of monarch, minister, sorrow, and auxiliary. The fragrant and mellow fragrance can reconcile the temperament of other materials. This is called Jun, so they often use But there are some other genres that like to use ordinary spices, and the effect is very good.”

“For example?” The other party was busy asking.

“such as……”

Gu Yu looked around and his eyes stopped on the fruit plate in front of him. He reached out and lightly smashed the four-petal fruit, lined up on the case, said with a smile: “Litchi shell, papaya seed, orange peel, Sydney pear, these four dry powder, with honey water pills , fumigation by fire, it is called a small quad.”

“Little four…”

The old lady muttered in her mouth and stared at the fruits.

You must know that Shen, Tan, Long, and Sui are known as the four famous incense. There is a way to take an aliquot, and the final synthetic fragrance is called Sihexiang.

These shell remnants dare to call a small four-in-one, and the name of the light reveals a naked sarcasm and confrontation.

This is not finished, Gu Yu went on to say: “You pick some cypress kernels, simmer them in boiling water, soak them in the wine for seven days, take them out to dry, and burn them in a copper furnace. It becomes a cypress.”

“The orange leaves are smashed, sealed in bamboo with a piece of bamboo, and steamed on the fire. Then the bamboo is used as a spice, slowly smoked in the oven, smelling sweet and sweet.”

“In fact, spices can be seen everywhere, just like the tree in your yard. If the bark falls off naturally, you grind it into powder, which is a good rosin.”

“The material is not expensive, just by preference. Smoked agarwood and smoked dried tangerine peel are the same. If you have to count higher and lower, then it will be lower.”

“…”

The old lady’s ears were listening, her eyes were groaning, and she remained silent. After a long while, she finally sighed: “Little Gu, I am an eye-opener today!”

……

It is no wonder that she feels that she has been playing with incense for several years, and today she knows that she is on the surface.

The traditional Xiangdao fault is severe, and there are very few that have been passed down. The so-called scent of the market, mostly for the business to match the local tyrants and fragrant friends, the only scales feathers.

Why is it called play?

It’s just that you’re serious, you’re happy.

You think! A few hundred thousand orchids, hundreds of thousands of pairs of walnuts, millions of a string of Qi Nan beads, who is playing special?

Gu Yu said so much in one breath, and he could not help but slow down. He glanced at the time and said: “Grandma, it’s not early, there are things in my house, and I go back.”

“Hey, you made me straight up, oneself but wanted to go? This is not authentic!”

The old lady made a joke and said: “Xiao Gu, I am really happy today, thank you for coming over. But I still have a ruthless request, I want to ask for a fragrance.”

“What do you want?” he asked.

“What a fragrance can be, as long as it is what you do.”

Hey!

This is too much love, he can not help but give birth to a warmth, said: “Well, when are you going?”

“No hurry, when are you going to do it, when will you give it to me… A Hui!”

The old lady suddenly called out, a woman in her thirties came over and held a small box in her hand. She reached out and took it with a smile: “I don’t have anything to send, you will accept this little gift.”

“Oh, this is not necessary! Grandma, you are too polite, really don’t!”

Gu Yu quickly got up and pushed hard.

“You sit down and listen, let me say…”

She pressed her hand and said: “First, I like you this kid, this is a face-to-face ceremony. Secondly, I can’t help you with white, this is also a thank you. Two gifts, you have no reason. Refuse.”

“Uh……”

The elders did not dare to quit, and he pushed the hypocrisy again. He only said: “Thank you.”

……

Gu Yu arrived at the end of the evening and got up at ten o’clock. Even so, my great-grandmother still had some disappointment. This young people are humble and amiable, and they are really lovable.

The old lady had to send a car. He saw a long distance and did not refuse.

When I got home, I washed it, pulled it, and I remembered it in bed. As soon as the box opened, Gu Yu was dumbfounded, and it was actually the gourd jade.

Oh, please! Oneself just took a few more eyes, and people noticed it!

While admire the keenness of the old lady, he couldn’t help but check the Internet and then was shocked: it was such a small gadget, priced at 10,000.

“Ugh……”

Gu Yu holds the incense stick and looks left and right. It’s a little didn’t know whether to cry or laugh: If you have this 10,000 yuan, can you give me directly?
