The Time Traveler Is A Bit Sweet

Chapter 14

Bai Jin now has a lot of osmanthus. He wants to sell it this time and show it to Zuo Anli. Naturally, he has to make it more delicate.

He is already very proficient in extracting water from plant ash. Now he can make osmanthus essential oil. The soap made in this way will be more exquisite and beautiful.

At this time, there were no precision instruments such as glass, so we had to use the original method to make essential oils - the pressing method.

It is to mash osmanthus and other plants, pound out the juice as hard as you can, and then filter it several times through a fine mesh, leaving only the pure flower juice, which is dried and concentrated to become the plant essential oil.

He can skip the last step. It has to be melted into a piece of soap anyway, so it doesn't have to be too troublesome.

Yu Niang brought over all the containers and oil he needed. The magistrate's family was rich, so what he could bring out was olive oil that was more suitable for making soap.

Olives are also a traditional Chinese medicinal material, and the price is not cheap. Bai Jin can afford it, but he would definitely be reluctant to buy it by himself.

It was cold at night, so he put the closed lid of the container into a large water tank and froze it with cold water to cool it faster.

Everything is ready, all we need is the east wind, and it will be condensed and formed early tomorrow morning.

After a night, Bai Jin slept quite comfortably. He didn't even dream at night and slept until dawn.

Fortunately, he has developed a biological clock and does not get up until midnight. This time is exactly the time when the servants in the house get up and get busy, neither early nor late.

The silence was broken by the lively sounds of activities, especially in the east courtyard, where the servants who got up early to work lived, it was even more lively.

Bai Jin rubbed his groggy eyes, adding coarse salt to the poplar branches he used when washing up. He wondered whether he should work hard to get out the toothpaste.

Simple daily necessities like this can be viewed in novel ways by watching short videos on weekdays, and the production methods are also memorized in my mind, so it is not particularly difficult.

He still owed money to the system, and he had no intention of going on a killing spree to come up with any big killer weapon. What's more, when chatting with the system before, it mentioned that it would not come up with technological objects that were beyond the level of this era.

In short, Bai Jin, a guy without ambitious ambitions and sufficient strength, chose to mess up quite conscientiously.

The morning light pierced the mist, and the hazy light fell by the window. Bai Jin quickly pulled out the soap he had worked so hard to make.

He put it under the sun and looked around. It was much more refined than last time. Bai Jin ran to find Zuo Anli with satisfaction.

Zuo Anli was followed by a boy with some freckles on his face. When he saw Bai Jin running over, he looked at him unhappily.

If there are no accidents, people like Bai Jin who have followed Zuo Anli since childhood will become his long-term followers.

Zuo Anli's father, County Magistrate Zuo, was accompanied by his close followers, who were also brought from the same village.

Many people may think that a poor family can get the capital to find a follower, but in fact this is a common thinking mistake of many modern people.

In ancient times, a poor family was actually equivalent to a small landowner who had just made a fortune or a large landowner who had not been aristocratic for several generations, and was unlikely to be a real farmer.
