"We have already tasted Lao Liu's. I don't believe yours is better than his..."
Su Yun subconsciously looked over and saw that the waiter from before brought several glasses of water and placed them one by one in front of her. She then asked, "What are they doing?"
If it were in an ordinary bar, it might be a drinking contest, but here, it didn't sound like it.
Glancing in the direction she was talking about, the waiter smiled and said, "It's your first time here and you may not know much about it, but you must be a perfumer too. How come you don't know about Douxiang?"
"Douxiang?" When Su Yun heard the term, her first reaction was, "Isn't that a special kind of Buddhist incense?"
"You're talking about the name of the spice, I'm talking about a way to play it, it's different!" He waved his hand. There probably weren't many customers at the moment. He took a rag and wiped the bar table, chatting while wiping it.
"Oh? For fun?"
Seeing that she didn't understand at all, the waiter became interested and patiently explained to her, "It's just that some guests will make an appointment to gather here, and those who have made an appointment to fight will prepare themselves to participate in the fight during this period. The spices are then notarized by several notaries to see whose spices are the most special, most distinctive, as well as long-lasting and fragrant... Wait, oh, there is a lot of knowledge in this."
He waved his hand, but she might not understand what he meant, "It's just a small competition anyway, hey, let's have fun!"
"In other businesses, there are cockfights and cricket fights, as well as wine and poetry fights. Here, it's the incense fight."
After saying that, he saw someone coming again, so he went out to greet the guests.
Although he only introduced a few sentences, it also greatly aroused Su Yun's interest.
Douxiang? She had never heard of it in Sioux City before, nor had she seen it abroad.
There are competitions and the like, big and small, but this is the first time I have seen such a private event purely for fun.
Sipping the cups of different "waters" unhurriedly, she never moved her eyes away from the table. She was very curious about the spices they brought with them.
You must know that even as a top perfumer, it is impossible to guarantee that you are familiar with all spices.
The world is so big, and the natural resources are so rich. However, the levels of fragrance are ever-changing, and there are countless types of spices. It is this endless exploration that brings her great pleasure.
And often many unseen special spices are discovered in unexpected places.
For example, she planned to refine and layer the original fragrance of the wood she got from Yun Chuyao to make a new type of essential oil. However, because the material was relatively rare, and Yun Chuyao said that there was only so much, and then There was no more, so she didn't take action for a long time, cherishing the treasure.
"Just say that you won and still don't admit it. What did you bring? It has no taste at all."
"That's why I didn't smell anything. I thought there was something wrong with my nose."
"Admit defeat, admit defeat, but it's too embarrassing for you to lose this time!"
I heard those people saying in unison.
Su Yun turned her head and saw that the person who was being squeezed was a girl. She probably couldn't bear the trouble of being squeezed, and her fair face turned red, "You guys don't understand at all!"

Off-topic: The game project "Douxiang" is compiled by the author himself, so don't pay attention to it. Also, the heroine is not locked up, so how could she appear here? Take a guess.
Out of curiosity, she got up and left the bar, moving closer in that direction.
After getting closer, I could see clearly that the thing placed in the middle was actually a piece of grass, at least - it looked like an ordinary grass.
"You don't understand at all. If you don't believe me, why don't you take a closer look?" The girl looked unyielding, as if she felt that she was holding some unparalleled treasure.
This appearance even drew a sneer from the side, "Forget it, it smells like ordinary grass, at most it smells like green grass. Why, can you still smell the smell of chicken legs? Hahahaha... " JrNovels.com
