The carriage stopped at the outer periter of the Celestial Fragrance Workshop because carriages couldn't go further in. This was Hedan's wealthy district, and there was no shortage of rich people in Hedan.
The three of them got off the carriage, only to find a long queue forming at the entrance of the essential oil workshop. The three looked at each other in disbelief. Simmons and Celestia knew this workshop was very popular, but they didn't expect it to be this popular.
It wasn't long before Child ca back with information, "Young Master, the inside of the essential oil workshop has a limit on the number of people allowed in, so everyone is waiting outside. As it stands, the wait ti will be very long, and we might not even get in today."
"Is it really that popular?" Celestia was also puzzled. Why were there so many people?
"Yes, it's been like this recently. Mainly, their family didn't make perfus before, and the perfus they launched have a particularly good scent, last a long ti, and aren't too expensive. Plus, with the Celestial Fragrance Workshop's brand na, people from not only Hedan but also other cities have co. So rchants have seen the business opportunity and are hoarding supplies," Child explained.
Quality goods from Hedan can also fetch huge profits when sold abroad or overseas.
"Didn't you say it was the George Family planning to buy?" Celestia asked. Although she didn't use it herself, many in the George Family did. Being a big family, they couldn't refuse so convenience.
Child smiled wryly, "They said they could arrange for us in advance, but there are still several waves ahead of us."
Nobles certainly have privileges, but there are indeed many nobles in Hedan; the Kingdom has conferred titles widely. The count title of the George Family is not particularly distinguished. Without their previous prestige, they might not even qualify to ask.
Li Xin didn't really care, but he didn't want Simmons and Celestia to keep waiting, so he took out the gold dal Achilles had given him. Even if there was no rit in investigating the case, there was hard work, and it seed like the ti to use it.
"Show this to them and have them arrange it as soon as possible," Li Xin said.
"Okay, Young Master Xin."
"Brother Li, are you really going to use it like this?" Simmons said, surprised.
"No use leaving it unused. If it can be charged to an account, put it on Achilles' tab," Li Xin said, feeling more and more that he was at a loss. He worked hard while Achilles seed to enjoy life to the fullest, like Cao ngde, living a life beyond Li Xin's wildest dreams.
The more he thought about it, the more irritated he beca. He needed to earn so interest back.
Before long, the store manager rushed over with Child, bowing very low and being very hospitable. The three of them were not very interested in the essential oil workshop, just wanting to pick a gift.
The interior décor of Celestial Fragrance Workshop was extrely luxurious. Upon entering, they were greeted by a refreshing and invigorating fragrance. Though strong, it wasn't overwhelming. With the store manager's company, they selected an essential oil. Ultimately, they didn't charge it to Achilles, and Simmons paid for it. Young Master Xiong Ying was always so generous.
Simmons also chose a bottle for Celestia, who forced Li Xin to choose a scent for her, which was considered a gift from him.
Essential oils are much more concentrated than perfus, offering greater longevity. The price was more than ten tis as expensive, even surpassing gold, said to be very difficult to make, requiring vast amounts of flowers and a unique secret recipe. While the authenticity was unknown, the packaging was indeed exquisite. When it ca to aesthetics and taste, Hedan was unrivaled along Dao Yuan Road.
After all the fuss, Li Xin was very pleased. Such gifts are loved not just by won but also by n.
The carriage first took Li Xin back to Li Long Inn. Celestia originally planned to stay a while at Li Xin's place, but he suddenly rembered sothing, glancing at Simmons, "It's a ss at my place. I'll tidy up and invite both of you over for a al soti."
Celestia still wanted to go, but Simmons stopped her, and the carriage returned to Saint Grace Canon Law School. Inside the carriage, Celestia was overjoyed with the essential oil Li Xin gave her. Simmons was helpless; although he had paid for it, he felt Celestia falling for Li Xin was normal. He wasn't worried; if they could beco a couple, he'd be delighted. He just didn't agree because he felt Brother Li wouldn't be interested in this girl.
When Li Xin entered the inn, he heard a series of rapid thuds... and saw the Dragon Mother from a distance. "Young Master Xin, Young Master Simmons hasn't co yet?"
Li Xin was exasperated. The Dragon Mother seed to have a nose for him. If she blocked Simmons and found sothing out, it would be social death for him. "We were handling so matters. He and Celestia brought back, but they're busy with training and returned to the Canon Law School."
The Dragon Mother clasped her hands, looking up dreamily, her eyes sparkling, "Indeed, a man like an eagle, so focused, so determined. In this upcoming battle of glory, Young Master Simmons will surely win and then co to marry with crowned glory."
???
Witnessing the Dragon Mother who had already taken it seriously, Li Xin shivered. Won's imagination was terrifying. How had the plot progressed so quickly? It was disastrous; how would this end in the future? Would he be beaten to death by the Dragon Mother's fists as big as sandbags?
"Ahem, Dragon Mother, I have so matters to attend to." After saying this, he bolted up the stairs without looking back. If he got entangled any further and had to pull out sothing, he would feel unworthy of Simmons, especially given that it was Simmons who footed the bill today.
Big spenders are loved by not only won but also n.
Returning to his room, Li Xin closed the door and took out the essential oil. It was in a very pretty gourd-shaped bottle, indicating the refined level of glass craftsmanship here. The bottle was beautiful; inside was a thick sakura red liquid, very striking. It had much more substance than perfu.
Just that this small bottle cost 5 Gold Lira, which was simply terrifying. It wasn't that he was timid; he thought he had so wealth now, and with the Gold Lira Christie had given him, he could afford an essential oil. But once inside, he regretted it. Essential oils started at 5 Gold Lira and went up. He didn't even want to ask about the more expensive ones. When the store manager offered the price, it felt like Mundo's big move ca out of nowhere. Had Simmons hesitated for a few seconds, his face would have been lost, taken away by a wave on Achilles.
A bottle of perfu, a bottle of essential oil, placed together, the essential oil significantly outshone from appearance to quality. Giving both together, one for daily use and one for important occasions, would be ideal. Although Christie didn't use perfu and was already very attractive, adding a slight fragrance would enhance her elegance.
...Would she dislike using perfu? So people are allergic to perfu. Although he hadn't heard of this happening in Wattan, so people indeed don't like it.
Christie, like Celestia, didn't use perfu much. Whether she'd like it or not was unknown. He really had no confidence in understanding won's thoughts. For his first gift, he hoped that she would like it.
Suddenly inspired, Li Xin visualized a dice rolling. The judgnt should not be difficult, right?
If not a nine, then seven or eight should be possible. With Celestia's selection and Celestial Fragrance Workshop's brand reputation, it's a sure thing?
The dice settled on... one.
Li Xin was speechless. After all this effort and ti, it ended up being the worst result?
Did the dice not understand won's hearts? Were won's thoughts opposite?
Such sarcastic thoughts quickly faded. Under normal circumstances, even if Christie didn't use it, she wouldn't dislike it, not giving such a judgnt even.
Looking at the perfu and essential oil on the table, Li Xin's eyes gradually sharpened...
