Chapter 97 Let’s Bring the First Prince Out for a Fling
After that, Weiss ran to the kitchen and cleaned up some of the stains on his face. He also hastily fixed his hair.
As for the stains on his clothes, there was really nothing he could do about it. He could only make do with what he was wearing. After all, when he returned to the palace, he would change into daily beautiful clothes.
After roughly tidying himself up, Weiss sat next to Lorne with a sore back.
It seemed like Lorne was doing some strange things with some bottles, chains, and flower petals. After looking at them carefully for a while, Weiss could not see the correlation between the three items. He did not understand this strange operation at all.
Weiss could not help but curiously ask.
“Teacher, what are you doing? From the moment I entered the place up until now, this fragrance has been so strong that it’s beginning to become a little pungent.”
Lorne explained without raising his head, “This thing is called a perfume.”
“Perfume?” Weiss was a little puzzled.
Lorne nodded.
“Actually, it’s something that adds fragrance when sprayed on the body.”
Weiss was starting to get it.
“Is this thing similar to a sachets, or agarwood chestnuts. So it’s like things that will add fragrance to the body.”
Lorne nodded.
“It’s like you said, but there’s a difference. The perfume works better on you than the sachet.
“After all, sachets are only placed in a few places, and there aren’t many different kinds of fragrances. Usually, you can only smell a faint fragrance if you are close enough.
“But this perfume is liquid-like. It can be sprayed on any part of the body, and you can even control the amount you want on your body.
“If you like a stronger fragrance, you can use the petal material that has a strong fragrance, or you can just spray more.”
Lorne explained, and Weiss nodded repeatedly. However, after listening, he still asked, “Teacher, why are you studying this thing? Isn’t it used for women’s homes?”
Lorne nodded slightly and said very naturally, “Yes, this is usually used for women’s homes. That’s why I’m studying this.”
“Isn’t your family in business? Do you think if this thing is introduced to the eastern and western markets, will there be good sales?”
Weiss was a little stumped. How would he know how to do business? As for whether it would sell well in the market, he was even more confused on how it works.
After all, he was the First Prince. If he were to be tested on some political matters, he might be able to answer it, but this… it was not something he could answer.
So after being confused for a long time, Weiss stammered a reply, “It should be very easy to sell.
“After all, there are many expensive ladies in Lolan. I know a lot of people often use sachets.
“If it’s really as good as what you said, then there will definitely be a large number of high-ranking officials and dignitaries who will buy it from you.”
Lorne showed a slightly satisfied smile, then leaned back on the chair and said in a relaxed manner, “That’s easy to say, but these are only semi-finished products. They haven’t been fully developed yet. Otherwise, we would definitely be able to do it!”
The reason Lorne was researching perfumes was actually because he had nothing to do.
If he were to really sell it, the money he would earn would probably not be as extensive as refining salt. After all, salt was a necessity in life, and this perfume might not be that popular.
Therefore, he did it during his free time. He practiced the idea in his mind and found something to do for himself.
If he could really produce a large number of finished products in the future, it would not be a problem to work with Kyle again on it. They could both earn a sum of money from it.
Moreover, this thing was a likable thing, especially for girls. In the future, it could be given to whoever was pleasing to the eye. Thinking about it, it was actually quite useful.
However, Weiss still did not understand it very well. Instead, he scratched his chin and said with some confusion, “Teacher, are you studying this perfume so that you can enjoy it or sell it?”
Lorne did not have time to explain so much about this thing, so he answered casually, “It’s more or less like that.”
Weiss nodded, then hesitated and asked cautiously,
“Teacher, are you feeling a little tight on money lately? If that’s the case, I can help
you.”
Weiss was worried that if he said that, Lorne would feel like a charity case, so he deliberately asked in a weak tone. However, this young man had greatly underestimated Lorne’s ability to accept things. Not only did Lorne not feel uncomfortable, but his eyes became brighter.
He could not help but turn his head and asked with interest, “Little Friend, don’t tell me you have a lot of money on you?”
Weiss shrank his neck and then carefully said, “I have a little money on me. If you have any problems, you can tell me.”
Lorne immediately snapped his fingers and put away the perfume bottles on the table. He took out two small bottles and put them on his body.
Then he waved at Weiss.
“Go, go, go. Today, I will take you to experience practical work, so that you can experience life at a close distance.”
Weiss did not quite understand what Lorne was planning to do, but from what he knew, his teacher was talented, capable, and full of knowledge. He treated him well, so he must be preparing to teach him some powerful knowledge.
Thus, Weiss suddenly became excited from Lorne’s gesture.
“Where are you taking me?”
Lorne waved his hand and said mysteriously, “Don’t worry about it now. Just follow me. I guarantee you’ll get a lot of rewards from it!”
As he said that, Lorne closed the door of the tavern, rented a carriage, and led Weiss straight to Merry Street.
The entire journey from Silk Street to Merry Street was not too far, so the carriage did not go for long before it stopped at the location Lorne had specified.
A master and a disciple. The moment the two young men got off the carriage, they were greeted by the lively atmosphere of Merry Street.
Although it was not yet a real lively night, it was close to the evening, and many places were already open for business.
Weiss was in the middle of the bustling street. Looking at the buildings on both sides with different styles and the strange atmosphere, he could not help but feel a little nervous.
“Teacher, where is this?”
Lorne glanced at him with a smirk on his face.
“This is the place where fireworks come to life, the street of romance, which is also known as the Brothel Alley.”
