Gulangyu Island 1

  Gulangyu Island

  Rosehip, Radish root, Sea buckthorn oil, 'Misty' Thyme, Broad-leaved thyme, Bitter orange, Snow pine... A 'great' formula, unfortunately the oxidation rate of rosehip oil is very fast, so the finished product must be used up quickly. Hmm, both oil and 'milk' use this formula, at most it's just a single formula 'essential' oil with completely different proportions.

  After designing this new oil for use on Pang Hua's face, the 'refined' oil used for acne-prone skin is best changed frequently - after massaging the 'refined' oil stayed on her head for almost half an hour, Chen Huasheng sniffed contentedly at the sweet fragrance of jasmine flowers and green tea in the shampoo, then quickly washed away the massage oil from her scalp and hair.

  This time, the 'refined' soap also used a considerable amount of jasmine 'flowers', and the entire bathroom was filled with the sweet fragrance of 'flowers'.

  My mother was finally won over by this fragrance, and both families use osmanthus 'flowers' at home, which brought a slight protest from my father.

  For different hair qualities and needs, add different single 'essence' oils to the base oil. Before washing your hair, use a comb and gentle knocking technique to make this oil fully contact with the scalp, hair roots, hair strands, and hair ends as much as possible. Then wrap it up with a towel for twenty to thirty minutes before thoroughly rinsing it off. This method is more effective than using conditioners and hair masks that contain large amounts of petrochemical products, especially for hair loss or oily conditions. Massaging 'essence' oils and herbal 'essence' liquids are particularly useful. However, for dandruff, just use a few washes with functional shampoo containing medicinal ingredients.

  Chen Haotian generously provided the formula and ingredient packs, but the ready-made large bottle products paired with a hair cap combination were apparently more popular. In addition, the 'flower' of jasmine green tea 'essential' oil shampoo additive combination also attracted many repeat customers.

  DIY is indeed only suitable for a small portion of the audience!

  "What a nice smell of jasmine!" Pang Hua exclaimed as soon as he entered the workshop.

  "You stink, go take a shower and change your clothes."

  Pang Hua had been trained to be very mindful of his body odor and breath, but he couldn't help it in the sweltering heat and sweat.

  The public transportation during the long summer has always been Chen Huaicheng's nightmare. Therefore, she always leaves early and returns early to avoid the peak hour's terrible mixed smell. At this time, the ladies' perfume containing musk combined with sweat makes it even more unbearable!

  Fifteen minutes later, Pang Hua emerged from the small bathroom wearing a white coat that was not quite suitable for him, his head and body filled with the fragrance of jasmine flowers.

  "Oh, this is the jasmine 'flower' 'essence' soap that almost sold out recently!"

  "Right. The dipping sauce and 'flower' mud you made are great."

  "Heh heh...... Is there a reward?"

  "Reward? Too early." Chen Huan added on the computer, "Hm, if you can maintain this for two more weeks, I can give you a new computer."

  "Oh, I don't use the computer much... never mind, it's better to go out and travel. Sigh. I'm on summer vacation now, so I can help you with a lot of things."

  Chen Haoteng is busy answering consultations and has no time for idle chatter, merely pointing at the daily work task list.

  After fifteen minutes, she finished the paperwork. She raised her head and thought about the topic that Mei Jia Sheng had discussed when they finalized the contract translation last week - there were still many follow-ups to the previous translation, although the pay was not high, it was a good opportunity for Chen Hui Sheng to review and learn again.

  "Have you been to Xiamen?"

  "I've only been to Fuzhou. I haven't been to Xiamen."

  "Hmm, how about we go to Gulangyu Island then." Go take a look at that vacation spot that has been on her mind for her past life.

  "Great, great, great! I'll make some more jasmine 'flowers'!" Pang Hua was excited like a child.

  "The season is over! Fool. Do more next year."

  "Alright alright... Then I'll go bother with that blue lotus 'flower' you mentioned. I looked up some journals and found a suggested formula."

  "Uh-huh, okay." Chen Haotian lowered his head. Find discounted air tickets!

  Thank goodness, nowadays the internet is much more developed.

  Moreover, since Panghua doesn't want a new computer, their budget is much more ample!

  After some thought, she contacted the newly found supplier again, and in coordination with the low-priced air ticket time, they finalized a good plan that would save them a small amount of freight - this small amount was enough for them to save up and enjoy a whole day on the island!

  The plane took off. Heat waves rolled in.

  "I think we should have come when it was cold," Pang Hua said with a wry smile as he got on the bus.

  "It's fine, let's just go later." Chen was gloomy. How did they end up "together" again to "spend the holiday"? What was she thinking when booking the ticket? Ah, right. It was a labor of strength... The luggage alone weighed about 20 kilograms, it would be too tiring for her to carry by herself.

  "Right, is there anything else to buy? We both have big boxes." But we don't need much! They also brought detergent and a clothes rack. For a four-day stay, three sets of clothes are enough.

  "Ah, there is a batch of jasmine 'essence' oil."

  "Huh? Didn't we have suppliers already?"

  "There's only one, it's too dangerous, and their yield is not enough. I also brought a detector, you can help me test it later, don't use perfume to fake it."

  "Hey, you can tell just by smelling it."

  "We need evidence!"

  "Did you bring money?" Pang Hua asked in a low voice.

  "I've got a card. It was at the xx bank branch where I 'transferred' it, and right outside that bank is the airport bus stop."

  "......You've thought of everything!" Even the sunscreen and acne treatment 'milk' he used were taken care of!

  Chen Hui handed over an unlabelled spray bottle, "Mosquito repellent, did you bring it?"

  "No!"

  "This bottle is for you. I still have one myself."

  "Oh, thank you!"

  After a long and arduous journey, the two of them finally disembarked from the ferry boat in the afternoon, covered in sweat, and set foot on Gulangyu Island.

  "Can we see the sea view from where we live?"

  "Not able to see the sea view, but 'pretty' distinctive."

  "Oh, okay!"

  Pang Hua was very clear that Chen Huai Cheng loved the quality of the individual, so he happily studied and compared the map with the actual road. Finally, pulling his luggage, he walked for over ten minutes from the dock to the guesthouse, including a detour on the way.

  This hostel is much better than the previous B&B in the old town!

  "This was actually a consulate before!!" Pang Hua was stunned. The inns in the ancient town were not converted from historical buildings!

  "Uh, the house is indeed pretty good." It's just that the room is a bit ordinary.

  "Ah, 'Mao' towel is white! There are four of them!" Pang Hua helped Chen Xiao Cheng carry her luggage and took the opportunity to glance at her room.

  "It's always right to bring your own, and after washing clothes, it can also absorb water. This way is faster." Poor kid, after high school, was frozen by parents, and didn't have a good time playing afterwards. This year's 'Spring' festival was even shocked by the homestay in the small town. Even such basic hardware would feel surprised.

  "Alright! I'll go!" Pang Hua walked out and went to her own room - next door.

  Outside the window, downstairs. It's a street, I guess it will be noisy, but it's still better than facing the 'flower' garden with mosquitoes flying around. Mosquitoes are the most hateful feature of summer.

  Chen Heng stopped for a moment, slowly approached a wall, and suddenly slapped his hand on it, killing a mosquito.

  She made an internal call to Pang Hua next door. "First check the mosquito net, then see if there are any mosquitoes in the room and bathroom. At 4:30 we go out for a walk, eat and drink, no work tonight."

  "Alright!"

  Chen Huaixing shook his head and smiled as he hung up the phone. This guy, from the fifth day of this year to now, was just like himself. Every day, non-stop learning, experimenting, working, even on weekends, he hardly took a break! Hmm, it's time to reward him. So, for this trip, she booked the flights and accommodations. Of course, he paid for food and drink - anyway, as long as they didn't eat expensive meals, it wouldn't cost much. At least it was much cheaper than round-trip tickets.

  ……

  The insurance company's reminder message arrived, reminding her that a sum of money would be deducted from her bank account.

  "Oh, you also received the insurance premium message!" Pang Hua sneaked a peek and then handed over his own phone.

  "Hmm, I think we have the same medical supplement insurance policy, and the amount should be the same too." Chen Hui Cheng concluded at a glance.

  "Right! Uh, our amounts aren't the same?"

  "I also have accidental insurance. The beneficiaries in case of death are my parents."

  "…Oh, never mind. I still have a brother. Are you hungry?"

  "Not very hungry. Want to buy a 'meat' jerky to try? This 'meat' jerky is very famous."

  "Good!" He stretched out his hand to help Chen Xiao escape from a group of tourists, then stepped onto the threshold of a somewhat famous shop. Bought two pieces of paper-wrapped pork jerky, and habitually thanked the clerk in a soft voice.

  The dried meat is really delicious.

  "Let's buy some and take them back."

  "Go ahead. You can share with your better classmates. I can share with colleagues."

  "Alright!"

  Polished off the rich second generation - not yet to the point of the rich second generation - almost all the bad habits and temper. Now Ponghua still has some student-like, childlike qualities, but is much more worldly-wise, and should be said to have grown up a lot.

  "Do you want to drink a cup of soda?"

  "No, I'm eyeing the seafood, saving some stomach for it - don't worry, I brought Huanglian Su."

  “……”

  The dining style here is between Guangdong and Zhejiang, so the dim sum naturally doesn't have as many varieties as old restaurants on land, but there are still a few dishes that can evoke Chen Huacheng's distant memories.

  "This soup is delicious." Chen Xuan pointed with his hand.

  "Right, sir, your girlfriend really has good taste. This 'flower' soup is our shop's signature dessert."

  Pang Hua's enthusiastic nod, Chen Xiao's blink, but didn't refute anything, and instead ordered another dish of assorted seafood stir-fry and a plate of steamed eggs with clams.

  "Let's have the preserved egg and lean pork porridge tomorrow. Hmm, miss, what time does your store open tomorrow?"

  "We open at 6:30 in the morning. Breakfast is provided."

  "Is there porridge for breakfast?"

  "Ah, yes! We have egg drop soup, thin meat porridge, and also baozi, fried dough sticks, and soy milk." The young waiter nodded vigorously to emphasize.

  "Hehe, okay." Come have breakfast tomorrow! Chen Xiao Sheng was instantly attracted to the happy food and forgot about the embarrassing thing of being treated as someone's 'girlfriend'.

  Pang Hua was attracted by the small stir-fry on the next table, "Miss, is this the assorted small stir-fry?"

  "Yes."

  "Oh, great." Similarly feeling very happy, Pang Hua was secretly drooling.
