A lovely jasmine flower

  After sending a few seasonal gifts to the big sister, Chen Huan thought for a moment and posted a batch of real discount sets and repeat purchase discounts in the store for old customers who have purchased at least once a year. Thanks to the software she spent money on, its functions are quite complete, although the software service is not cheap, but it saves the cost of one person's labor. Interestingly, perhaps because the product introduction was written thoroughly, she alone, with one netbook, managed to cope as the shop owner, customer service, and handmade craftsman. Of course, on the other hand, it also means that her store still lacks popularity. However, a six-figure sales volume, plus a not-too-busy lawyer "part-time job", fully meets her original intention of opening the store.

  Actually, there's no need to habitually put too much pressure on yourself...

  So now she basically works and recharges within 10 hours a day, including weekends - um, three hours for transportation and food, half an hour for grooming, except for sleep, there is still some time left to stroll around and be idle. What a joy! Much easier than during the college entrance exams and certification exams.

  She can even consider continuing blind dates now.

  Before the Mid-Autumn Festival, Pang Hua shed tears as Chen Ruiqin forced him to make a batch of jasmine essential oil hot soap by hand, which was half cheaper than cold soap. There were only 2,000 pieces made as gifts.

  。

  He shed tears not because he was oppressed, but because he didn't wear a mask and accidentally got too close, resulting in being stimulated by the too concentrated essential oil.

  "The scent of jasmine is indeed very good, I think it's better than roses." He commented while sniffing his own labor fruit.

  "Hmph, you don't even think about the quality of the essential oil I use! This is Indian jasmine essential oil! You take these leftover materials and re-mold them, then you go back and use them." Chen Huaicheng pointed to a pile of residual material.

  "Is it too fragrant if I use it?" A scent of jasmine on the man's body? Will it give people abnormal ideas...

  "Reprocessing will lose a lot. And after you take a bath, it's gone the next day." Chen Huan said casually. Anyway, this guy isn't particularly sensitive to smells, and he definitely won't notice the faint remaining fragrance of the essential oil.

  "You can use it." Pang Hua knew that if he took it home, he would definitely use it all up based on the principle of not wasting his own labor, so he still had to struggle a bit.

  "I use rose, lavender and sandalwood essential oil soap myself." Chen Xiao Cheng coldly dispelled his idea. "Although the quality of the essential oils is average, I added a lot. The taste is particularly good."

  "......" Alright, he's just picking up leftovers!!

  Pang Hua sneaked closer and sniffed, she didn't have that strong a fragrance on her. Hmm, it seems it won't be so embarrassing to become the laughing stock of the classmate's mentor by tomorrow. He originally wanted to plead for a classmate. Ask her to help solve the problem of that classmate's acne, but thinking about it, he gave up and just made an effort to secretly peek at her notes and online instructions.

  It turns out that Chen Huai's online store has a lot of recipes, and even published formulas and ingredient packages for sale. However, it seems that everyone prefers to buy ready-made products rather than buying a large quantity of ingredients to make them themselves, especially when the shop owner invites customers to do it themselves, but few people are willing to spend less money and take on more risk of failure. Anyway, the store's statement directly states: The profit margin in the store does not exceed 10% - this is the company's best annual net profit margin, she really didn't lie.

  "You can take your notes back and excerpt them, no need to be so detailed. I don't mind if you turn the materials into electronic files, just remember to give me a copy when you're done."

  "Right, I also have someone to rely on! Pang Hua thought with a mix of worry and joy. Isn't there another guy who's just as unlucky as me back then, but is now at the most awkward age? This little scoundrel really has good timing!"

  By the way, I still have a membership black crystal card that was handed over by a manager with a strange smile at the club, saying that "all projects" can be discounted by 70%, hmm, just right to give it to that classmate who is not short of money but now seriously lacks face.

  However, jasmine flowers really smell beautiful.

  Jasmine essential oil, or rather jasmine absolute. It has a small molecular structure and is difficult to extract. It's good for moisturizing, anti-sensitivity, and anti-aging, of course, with its beautiful fragrance. The scent of jasmine has the effect of relieving melancholy emotions, or when women smell the scent of jasmine on themselves, they become more confident. In comparison, rose is given too much romantic and noble meaning, and it's also more expensive. For women, especially Eastern women, jasmine may be better at boosting confidence than roses.

  Jasmine's flower language is pure, rich, clear and distant. But for the Chinese people, the most vivid concept of this small white flower is still a woman as fair as jasmine. The ears can't help but ring with that folk song "What a Jasmine Flower" that has been sung for centuries. Not beautiful, not dazzling, smiling subtly, only with a faint scent of jasmine that can be smelled by people who like and are close to her, exuding a subtle charm.

  Now Chen Huasheng's favorite flower is no longer a rose, but jasmine. Of course, its price isn't necessarily much cheaper.

  ***

  In search of an alternative to imported jasmine essential oil, Chen Haosheng spent a long time searching and finally found a small workshop that processes it. The larger domestic suppliers, needless to say, are all synthetic fragrances, the difference being between industrial and food-grade, and of course there are also good and bad grades of industrial fragrance.

  More than 200 kilograms of jasmine flowers from Guangxi, after removing impurities and other things, were extracted with carbon dioxide, and then distilled bit by bit in a small machine. Some of it still had problems and couldn't be used. After nearly a month, only two kilograms of essential oil were obtained - so the cost per milliliter was 8 yuan, which wasn't much cheaper than imported ones. This doesn't even include Chen Huacheng's transportation and labor costs for this.

  She asked Pang Hua to write a paper. The latter was entangled for half a day and simply pulled two classmates together to run to that workshop and stayed there for several days.

  However, none of these kids complained about having a fragrant body... It can be seen that they all have introverted personalities.

  Finally, their small paper on origin, processing methods and test results was published. I heard that the Chinese version was published in a domestic journal, the kind that doesn't cost money, while the English version also found a place to be published: it can be seen that there is real goods. Although the three Ph.D. students did not have any economic benefits, publishing papers abroad has great benefits for their degree, and the school also expressed to Pang Hua in a subtle way that as long as he agreed, he could stay at the school as a lecturer——and Pang Hua was extremely lucky but unfortunately selected, with a price close to free, to take on an elective course for undergraduates.

  。

  Unfortunately, Chen Huasheng was insensitive to physical chemistry and the like. Molecular formulas and molecular structures were just a bunch of mysterious symbols to her.

  The biggest beneficiary was that workshop, which actually found an investor and opened a company of some scale. As a thank you gift, they sent over several kilograms of jasmine essential oil, as well as dozens of different types of local specialty oils.

  Chen Hua was dizzy, this stuff can't be stored for a long time... but the cost reduction is still a good thing.

  As a result, the most unfortunate student, Pang Hua, was dragged away by her and forced to make soap until he vomited. Chen Huai-cheng also maliciously used the excuse of limited space in the workshop to stuff all the inventory into his dormitory!

  ……

  Chen Huasheng doesn't often stay too late in the studio, and if it's very late, she usually drives home - although it's close, but you have to cross a wide road and a section of road without many streetlights. Now this road has been renovated, widened, with pedestrian paths and streetlights, so she doesn't often drive back and forth anymore.

  However, today, she made a rare exception and brewed a pot of floral tea, leisurely revising the manuscript and responding to inquiries.

  The Oriental Jasmine series of products sells well because most women like this natural and elegant fragrance, which is completely different from the perfume products. She began to consider launching a series of oriental floral scents, peach blossoms, peonies, paeonias, jasmine, gardenias, rhododendrons... Hmm, still peony! The Chinese people's love for peony has never weakened.

  "It seems like the soap I made is selling well." Pang Hua said with satisfaction while packing. With a new compact and practical packaging machine and inflatable packaging materials, the physical labor required for each package has decreased even more. But why does he still have to do so much work?

  "This is a well-designed box." Chen Huaicheng coldly hit him. "The design fee alone cost me 2,000 yuan, the mold was over 3,000 yuan, and this batch of 5,000 soap boxes, each with a cost of over 2 yuan."

  "Oh," Pang Hua, who had long been used to being beaten, took it completely calmly, "There are only three boxes left in my room. Is it time to replenish the stock? If the club sends customers over, it won't be enough."

  Chen Haotian slapped his thigh, "Right! You go make another 2,000 yuan!"

  Then, she completely ignored her resentful partner and directly discussed with the essential oil refining company - now it's no longer a workshop - another beautiful and noble flower, peony.
