Perfume Alchemist

Chapter 25 Grapefruit Paradise
"Why can't the aroma of grapefruit be extracted?"

Another woman asked curiously.

"The essence of citrus can't be extracted by heating. Do you understand that? Boiled oranges don't have any flavor." The tall lady calmly explained.

"Yeah, that's true."

"So they can only extract essential oils by cold pressing. However, the skin of pomelo is very special. It has two layers, the outer skin and the inner skin. The yellow outer skin is fragrant but too thin, and the white inner skin is bitter and too thick. So there is no effective way to extract the aroma of grapefruit at present."

"Yes, what did you do, handsome young man?" The innocent-looking lady suddenly looked sharply at Ahao. "Could it be that rotten oranges were used to pass off grapefruits?"

Ah Hao squinted his eyes, feeling that the two visitors looked unfriendly.

Especially the tall lady, her knowledge of perfume is so deep that it has surpassed the scope of ordinary customers.

Ah Hao said with an expressionless face: "Since I said that I made a perfume with grapefruit as the theme, I wouldn't lie to everyone.

"Instead of caring about these, why don't you come and smell it first? I can guarantee that you won't be disappointed."

In fact, this problem is very simple for Ah Hao, it is the second refinement.

The peeled pomelo peel was refined twice with the refining array, and the smell of the inner and outer skins could be purified separately according to his wishes.

But it is impossible for Ah Hao to casually tell others this secret.Not to mention these two suspicious women.

At this time, Boss Qiao came out to smooth things over: "Yes, yes, remember what I said? Mr. House was once Zu Nana's chief perfume developer! He has some unique skills, that's really great. It's nothing more than normal!"

Speaking of which, Boss Qiao directly asked for [Grapefruit Paradise] from Ahao, and said, "How about it? Let's try it. Whether this perfume smells like grapefruit or not, you will know when you smell it. Facts speak louder than words."

The two ladies looked at each other, and slowly nodded in agreement.

The incense mist danced again in the dim light of the bar.

The mouth-watering fruity sour aroma, plump and juicy sweetness, plus a little bitter fragrance unique to grapefruit.

Smelling the smell carefully, the tall slender lady's expression changed from doubt to shock, and finally she looked at Ahao with incredulous eyes.

This enjoyable sour, this bitter aftertaste.There is such a pure grapefruit flavor!
No, its taste comes from grapefruit, but it is higher than grapefruit, and it smells better than real grapefruit!
When everyone can't restore the taste of grapefruit, he has already embarked on the road of transcendence!
How did he do that? !

"It smells so good. It smells better than drinking a large glass of iced honey citron tea!" The wealthy lady praised sincerely.

"How on earth did you do it?" The tall slender lady stared at Ahao with scorching eyes, as if she was looking at a rare and rare treasure in the world.

"Business secrets, no comment."

Boss Qiao also spoke just right: "Haha, the pancakes are delicious, you just buy them and you're done, right? Why worry about how the pancakes are distributed."

The tall slender lady was silent for a long while, and suddenly said something surprising: "I'll pay for this grapefruit-flavored perfume, I'll buy as much as I have."

Boss Joe was so happy that he almost jumped up: "Okay! But, Miss Julie, don't you even ask about the price?"

After talking for a long time, Ah Hao knew the name of this tall lady for the first time. It turned out that her name was Julie.

"You quote a price."

"1500 Canadian dollars a bottle!" Qiao boss directly quoted a price that was half higher than that of Pina Colada.

"Okay! How many bottles are there?" Unexpectedly, Ms. Julie was unusually straightforward, and she didn't intend to bargain at all.

Damn, there are fewer reports!
Ah Hao felt heartache for the first time.He couldn't help looking at Boss Joe.

Boss Joe's face is also very exciting.Doubt in joy, regret in astonishment.

Boss Qiao hesitated for a long time, but still said: "Okay, deal."

Ah Hao felt a little uncomfortable. In terms of pricing, Boss Qiao never consulted his opinion at all.

"Then how many bottles do you have?" Julie turned her head to look at Ahao.

"Just one bottle." Ahao said a little unhappy.

"Just one bottle?"

"Well, because it's just a trial model, it hasn't entered mass production yet."

"So, can it be mass-produced?" Julie asked this sentence in a casual manner.

Boss Qiao also turned his head and looked at Ahao eagerly.

"can."

"Then it's settled. I'll come to pick up the goods in a few days. At least I want to see 100 bottles of this perfume!"

"Okay, definitely no problem!" Boss Qiao's face was all smiles.

The other lady was silent for a long time, then she suddenly said: "Then let me buy these bottles of perfume first?"

"Yes." Joe said happily.Julie nodded to her too.

"I'll give you 5000 yuan directly. I'll take care of all three bottles." The lady in gold and silver was indeed not short of money as she seemed, and she readily pulled out a few thousand yuan bills from her bag and handed them to Boss Qiao. .

"Don't you want to try the third bottle of perfume?" Ahao pointed to his [Red Orange and Basil], which has not yet had a chance to appear.

"No need, these two bottles of perfume are enough for me to realize your strength, handsome boy." The lady who still doesn't know her name cast a coquettish glance at Ahao, and continued: "I want to keep this bottle as a Surprise home."

"Okay, we still have something to do today, let's call it a day." The two ladies got up at the same time, ready to leave.

"Hey, it's easy to say, keep in touch in the future!" Boss Qiao enthusiastically got up to pick him up.

A group of people walked towards the door at the same time. When they were about to say goodbye, Julie suddenly turned around and shook hands with Ahao.

"Nice to meet you, Mr. House. I believe that you will become a famous figure in Agadhi in the future."

"I'd like to borrow your good words." Ahao smiled and took her hand.

Immediately afterwards, he felt a hard paper texture in his hand.

He lowered his head and took a peek, and found that Julie handed him a small card, probably a business card, by shaking hands.

Julie gave him a sly look and blinked.

Ahao pretended to be nonchalant and put his hands into his trouser pockets.

Boss Joe knew nothing about all this.

After saying goodbye to the two ladies in a friendly manner, Ahao returned to the room with Boss Qiao.

"As expected of you, Mr. House!" Boss Joe held up two glasses of wine in satisfaction, "Come on, have a toast, and wish our business success!"

"cheers!"

After clinking glasses, Boss Qiao asked impatiently:

"100 bottles of perfume, can you do it?"

"Delivery is not difficult, but the raw materials may be a bit difficult." Ah Hao felt that as long as he found a place to draw a larger formation, it would not be difficult. The difficulty was the money for the raw materials, which he might not be able to afford. .

"Ah Hao, you need to know! Brother Qiao has already spent a lot of time looking for such a big client, and you have to handle the raw materials by yourself."

"That's right." Ahao put a fake smile on his face.

After chatting for a while, the two fell into an awkward silence, and Boss Qiao looked at Ahao wonderingly.

"Is there anything else?"

"Boss Qiao, shouldn't the money just now be split [-]-[-]?"

Boss Joe lit a cigarette and said slowly

"Don't forget, I gave you 4000 Canadian dollars before, and if you count the previous two bottles, you still owe me 3000 Canadian dollars. Even if you share 2500 Canadian dollars today, you still owe me 500 Canadian dollars.

"Five to five points as agreed. As long as you are willing to do it, my brother will definitely not treat you badly."

"Okay, Boss Joe."

Ahao said this sentence with a blank face.
