Early the next morning, Jia Huan went to pay his respects to his wife.
In the past few days, my wife has recovered well and can walk without any problems.
The teacher's wife asked as usual: "Huan'er, how did you do in this provincial examination? How sure are you that you can pass Jieyuan?"
Jia Huan smiled bitterly and said: "Master, I just performed normally this time. I have tried my best. As for whether I can pass the exam, it's hard to say. As for Jieyuan, I don't even dare to ask for it."
The teacher's wife smiled and said: "Brother Huan, why are you so modest? You can even win the small and medium three yuan, so what's the difficulty in winning the solution yuan?"
Jia Huan said quickly: "My teacher's wife's words are wrong. How can the Tongsheng Examination be compared with the Provincial Examination? The Tongsheng Examination is just the most basic exam, and the admission rate is not low."
"And the provincial examination can be said to be a thousand troops crossing a single-plank bridge. One examination gathers more than 10,000 candidates, and the admission ratio is about one in thirty. It is so difficult that it is almost impossible to climb to the sky."
"In the scholarly world, there is a saying that gold is good for people and silver is good for Jinshi. The admission ratio for people to be promoted is about thirty to one, while the admission ratio for Jinshi is about ten to one."
"In other words, the chance of passing the imperial examination is much greater than that of the imperial examination. This shows how difficult the provincial examination is."
"I am still young. How many years have I studied? Compared with other candidates, I am far behind. Therefore, I am not sure whether I can win the exam."
This is true, it's not that Jia Huan is modest.
It is really difficult to take the examination. There are more than 10,000 candidates, but only about 300 people can be admitted.
Although he had some confidence in his article, the competition was too fierce after all, and he did not dare to say that he would definitely win.
Hearing this, Mrs. Zhao couldn't help but smile and said: "Your master is very optimistic about your article. I think Huan'er you will definitely win. Even if you don't win, it doesn't matter. As you said, you are young You are still young, you will definitely win if you wait for three more years.”
Jia Huan smiled and said, "Then let me borrow the good words from my master."
After talking to his wife for a while, Jia Huan returned to his residence.
Not long after, Nanny Zhao came to report that Uncle Xue was visiting the Third Master outside.
Xue Pan?
This guy is quite impatient. I just finished the exam yesterday, and today he couldn't wait to come to my door.
After going out, Xue Pan saw Jia Huan and asked, "Brother Huan, how did you do in the exam this time? Maybe you won the top prize?"
Um, okay, it’s not surprising that Daibawang could ask such a question.
Jia Huan quickly explained the imperial examination process to Xue Pan, and said that he was not sure about it this time.
Xue Pan said nonchalantly: "Brother Huan is a Wenqu star from the sky, so he must be able to go to high school."
"By the way, Brother Huan, now that you have finished the exam, let's talk about our perfume business quickly."
"Brother Huan, you don't know, I've been laughed at by that little Qizi guy these days. They're all saying that I'm a complete fool for setting up a prosperous shop to sell water!"
"This time, I have to make a lot of money and let them see who is the real fool."
Huh?
This is very interesting. They are obviously selling perfume, but by spreading the word, they are selling water.
And how did this kind of thing spread?
Jia Huan thought of Jia Mansion almost immediately. Well, probably only Jia Mansion could do such a thing.
Jia Huan nodded and said: "Let's go, I will take you to get the raw materials first, and then I will tell you how to make perfume."
"After you make a batch of perfume, we can sell it to the outside world."
Xue Pan couldn't wait to pull Jia Huan and said, "Brother Huan, what are you waiting for? Let's go quickly."
Jia Huan laughed and took Xue Pan to the alcohol workshop in the south of the city.
In the past ten days, Jia Yun and Ni Er have successfully made ten jars of alcohol.
This is still the case when there is only one set of distilling vessels.
If we buy a few more sets of distilling vessels, the speed will only be faster.
With these ten jars of alcohol, Xue Pan quickly led Jia Huan to a workshop where toilet oil was made.
Using this workshop to make perfume is a good use of everything.
Next, Jia Huan ordered someone to make some glycerin from aloe vera.
Then, pour a certain proportion of alcohol and glycerin into the extracted flower juice.
Then after stirring, sedimentation, filtration and other processes, the perfume is produced in a short time.
Jia Huan said to Xue Pan: "Brother Xue, do you smell this perfume?"
Xue Pan lay down and sniffed it vigorously, nodded quickly and said, "It smells very good. It's more fragrant than the smell of Qizi whore, and this kind of fragrance is different."
"I just feel like this fragrance gets better and better the more I smell it, and it doesn't overwhelm my head."
Well, no one can describe Xue Dashan like this.
Jia Huan smiled slightly and said, "The scent of this perfume is noble and elegant, while the scent of those prostitutes is flattering and vulgar."
Xue Pan couldn't help but clapped his hands and said: "Yes, yes, this is exactly what I want to say. Brother Huan still knows how to speak, but when I say it, it changes."
Well, you are a man of taste.
Jia Huan smiled and said: "This perfume is more than that. The fragrance of this perfume can last for two or three hours. And this perfume can also be carried with you. When the fragrance fades, you can spray it on your body at any time."
The more Xue Pan listened, the more delighted he became. He quickly asked: "Brother Huan, let's make it today and we can take it out tomorrow. This perfume has so many benefits, it will definitely sell for a good price, Brother Huan, I will continue to build a few more workshops and we will become rich!"
Jia Huan couldn't help but smile and said: "Brother Xue, if you have a good meal, you won't be late. If you sell perfume, you won't be in a hurry."
Xue Panniu glared and said: "This is nothing but money, why don't you rush? Besides, I'm still waiting to slap that little screwdriver in the face? I can't wait any longer!"
Jia Huan shook his head and said, "Brother Xue, now that the perfume is available, what are you going to use to hold it?"
Xue Pan was stunned and said: "This is sold in jars, divided into three grades: ten catties, five catties, and one catty."
Good guy, Jia Huan calls him good guy.
You sell perfume in jars! The largest one weighs ten pounds!
Is there water in your head? What do you think?
Jia Huan said helplessly: "Brother Xue, if we use such a vulgar vessel to hold our high-end perfume, it will only ruin the reputation of the perfume."
"We need to make the most exquisite white pomelo bottles to store them. Various flowers can be engraved on the bottles, and a few poems can be added on them."
"And not only white, but also red, purple, blue and other colors can be used. Different colors and different engraved poems can be used to distinguish different brands of perfume."
"The weight of a bottle of perfume must not exceed half a catty! And it is best to be designed with a spray function."
On the side, Xue Pan was stunned.
In terms of treachery, Brother Huan is indeed ruthless! Xue Pan felt that he had learned something.
