Perfume Alchemist

Chapter 11 The Key and the Three Bottles of Perfume

Practice!Alchemy practice!
found it!
Ah Hao saw a "Practical Guide to Alchemy - Preparation of Gold", and the book cover said that it explained the refining method of gold in detail.

Excitedly, he opened it and looked at it, removing the useless nonsense.The core idea inside is just one sentence:

【.Copper and zinc are alloyed to produce a precious metal that is very close to gold in appearance and hardness】

That's it?

Ah Hao knew why alchemy was despised by others.Is it a lie? It's not.

next one! "Mysteries of Alchemy: The Fifth Element" looks amazing.

This book is interesting, but it is also written in a mysterious way, making it hard to understand.

The author restructured the four elements of alchemy.Also added the concept of a fifth element.

It regards fire as a symbol of the Supreme Soul, while Earth, represents the materiality of the Supreme Soul.

"If you understand it this way, then dividing the earth from the fire is to extract the soul from the matter." Ah Hao thought to himself.

The book hints that the fifth element, the Philosopher's Stone, can be obtained by stripping the materiality of the supreme soul from the spirituality and continuously purifying it.

The author describes the Philosopher's Stone very attractively, and believes that the Philosopher's Stone can not only refine the elixir of life, but also turn stones into gold.

But Ah Hao didn't really believe this. If it was true, he wouldn't see this book in the hall where only admission fee was charged.

Nobody is a fool.

Ah Hao read many books one after another.

The more books he read, the clearer the answers in Ahao's mind became.

Dividing earth into fire can be understood as calcination in alchemy, which is the first step for those alchemists who are eager to refine gold.

Then the second step is very likely to be [Tianshichengjin].

However, if you change your mind.According to the idea in the book "The Fifth Element", the purpose of dividing earth into fire is to extract the essence from matter.

Then the second step is more likely to be [take the essence].No, it's more appropriate to use [Essence in Roughness].

[Divide the earth into the fire, turn a stone into gold] or [Divide the earth into the fire, extract the essence from the rough].

Ahao thinks these are the two answers he agrees with.

The moment he realized these two sentences, he smelled them.

A faint fragrance emanated from him.

Like fragrant ink, like an open page.

It's the smell of that door!
Ah Hao excitedly got up from the seat in front of the bookshelf, causing everyone around him to look towards him.

He knew that he should have found the answer!
He had a hunch that as long as he saw that door again, he could open it!
Sure enough, there is gold in the book!Today is really rewarding!
Looking at the sky, it was getting late, so he planned to go back to the shop first.

He left the library with excitement.

In the Zu Nana perfume shop.

The store manager raised his face again.

"Why did it take so long!"

"Mrs. Fu's house is far away."

"Why are you still carrying the bag? Has the perfume been delivered?"

"No, Mrs. Fu is not at home, I plan to go there again at night."

The store manager didn't continue to speak, but just kept looking at him with a gloomy face.

Ah Hao smelled a sour smell coming from him, it was a smell of dissatisfaction with himself.

Ahao pretended not to smell it, walked around the shop, put the perfume in order, and opened the bottle to smell it.

He had already made up his mind to go.

Before he left, he had to write down the smell of all the perfumes in the store.In this way, it will be more convenient for him to "learn from" in the future.

The reason why he was in a hurry to leave was not entirely because of the store manager's attitude.

Mainly because of what he gained today, he had a new understanding of the door in his heart—the stone door that towers above heaven and earth.

He can probably guess that the door is not the door of arcane art, but the door of alchemy.

He guessed this way not only because of the puzzle about dividing earth and fire, but also because of the patterns on the door.

After a preliminary understanding of alchemy, he recalled the pattern on the door, and vaguely felt that the pattern contained the knowledge of alchemy.

The real secrets of alchemy may all be hidden behind the door.

He was a little worried, not knowing that in this era when alchemy was despised by others, in an era when everyone practiced arcana and technology.

Pushing open the door of alchemy is good or bad.

"You may not be an arcane mage, Ah Hao."

What Wende's grandma had said to him suddenly sounded in his heart.

He really can't be an arcane mage, his door should not be an arcane door!
"Could it be that she already knew?" Ah Hao felt a little doubt in his heart.

Ah Hao remembered that Grandma Wende said that the bigger the door, the bigger the potential!And his own door is so big and boundless!Thinking of this, he gained more confidence.

And he already held the key to open that door.Maybe two more!This time he doesn't push the door, he wants to use the key to open the door!
Even if his door is not an arcane door, even if his door is an alchemy door that has been abandoned by the times, he still believes that he can walk a different path!

"Ahao, stay here and lock the door. You have the key, right. I'm leaving today."

The store manager with a gloomy face began to open the cash drawer to take stock of today's harvest, and was about to walk away.

"Okay, store manager, I have the key." After saying this, Ah Hao suddenly smiled.

Ah Hao could smell the store manager's dissatisfaction with him and it didn't get better.

But he doesn't care.

Now he just wants to quickly open his own door and embark on a road that may be rough, but it must be extremely exciting.

He thought for a while, and if he wanted to push the door, he had to go to Wende's grandmother, Mrs. Northon, and ask her to help him see the door again.

To see his grandma, he had to go to the downtown bar to find Wende first.

And to make Wende agree to himself, it is best to help him establish a good relationship with Joe Boss first.

And the key to a good relationship is to prepare the 6 bottles of [Pinazza Coconut] that are owed and bring them to him.

It is known that he has 3 bottles of perfume in stock, and now he needs to make 3 bottles of perfume.

Round up, make 3 bottles of perfume = set foot on the pinnacle of life!

Exciting to think about!
Hurry up and get the store manager away, and you can make perfume with the equipment in the warehouse openly later.

It's this slow guy, why is he still counting money at the counter!

He blocked his way to the pinnacle of life!

"Let's go, remember to lock the door!"

"Hmm, goodbye!"

With the sound of a jingle, Ahao watched the store manager leave the street.

Afterwards, he also pushed open the store door, probed to confirm that the store manager had really left, and then quickly flipped the [open] sign at the door to [resting].

Go back to the store and look at the clock on the wall, it's 5:30.

"Hey, I took another half an hour of the store manager's time and earned it!"

Ah Hao happily locked the store door from the inside and walked towards the warehouse.

Find out all the raw materials of perfume, to be precise, they are semi-finished raw materials.

Raw materials such as figs, ylang-ylang flowers, lemons, etc. are all extracted by Ahao himself and stored in the form of pure dew or essential oil.

There is also no place in the store to put fresh ingredients.Ah Hao is made in batches after purchasing in small batches.

Just these few vials took him several months.

If you have the opportunity, you still need to change to a larger device!
The perfume preparation equipment in the store is only enough for customers to "play".

Ah Hao looked at the capacity of the raw materials, and there is still a surplus, which is enough to make 4 bottles.

It is the raw material called watermelon ketone, which is only enough to make 3 bottles.

Ah Hao frowned, he remembered the experience a few days ago.

After drinking the perfume, it was a dreamlike experience on the island.

At first, Wende thought it was the leakage of his arcane potential, which led to this situation.

He also believed this statement before.

But now he has another suspicion. Maybe it is the mysterious raw material bought from the black market——watermelon ketone that brought about this miraculous change.

He is going to make 4 bottles of perfume today.

Have 1 bottle without watermelon ketone and see what happens.

This will reveal the truth!
