Reborn Troops

After Zhou Wanwan's emergency meeting, she and Qianqian acted quickly. They first contacted several reliable essential oil suppliers, hoping to urgently transfer a batch of high-quality essential oils. However, due to the strong market demand, the suppliers said that their inventory was tight and they could not provide enough essential oils immediately.

Zhou Wanwan frowned, feeling anxious: "We can't just sit there and wait for death, we must come up with other solutions."

Qianqian suggested: "Maybe we can try to extract essential oils ourselves? Although we don't have professional equipment, at least we can control the quality."

Zhou Wanwan nodded: "This is a good idea, but we need to find the right plant raw materials and extraction methods as soon as possible."

The two immediately split up, Zhou Wanwan was responsible for finding plant raw materials, while Qianqian began to study the technology and methods of essential oil extraction. After a busy day, they finally found a batch of high-quality plant raw materials and initially mastered the basic steps of extracting essential oils.

In the next few days, Zhou Wanwan and Qianqian personally started the work of extracting essential oils. They were busy in the laboratory, carefully controlling the temperature and time to ensure that every drop of essential oil could achieve the best effect. Although the process was difficult, their efforts finally paid off.

A few days later, a batch of freshly extracted essential oils was successfully produced. Zhou Wanwan and Qianqian immediately used these essential oils to make a new batch of bead samples and conducted rigorous tests. The results showed that these new beads were very effective in repelling mosquitoes, even better than the previous batches.

Zhou Wanwan breathed a sigh of relief and said to Qianqian with a smile: "We did it. These new beads will definitely meet the needs of customers."

Qianqian also showed a gratified smile: "Yes, our efforts have not been in vain. Next, we have to push these new beads to the market as soon as possible."

However, just as they were preparing to celebrate their victory, an unexpected piece of news broke the peace again. Ms. Zhao suddenly called and said anxiously, "I heard that you have encountered some problems recently. How is the quality of the new beads?"

Zhou Wanwan immediately replied: “Ms. Zhao, don’t worry, we have solved the problem, and the quality of the new beads is very good. We are preparing to show you the samples.”

Ms. Zhao was silent for a while, then said, "Okay, I'll come to the store in person tomorrow to take a look."

The next day, Ms. Zhao arrived as scheduled. Zhou Wanwan handed her a sample of the new beads and gave her a detailed introduction to the process of extracting essential oils and the mosquito repellent effect of the beads. Ms. Zhao observed it carefully, then put it on her wrist, took a deep breath, and felt the aroma of the essential oil.

A few minutes later, she opened her eyes with a satisfied smile on her face: "This tastes really good, and I feel like mosquitoes really don't dare to get close."

Zhou Wanwan breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile: "We are very happy that you are satisfied. If you think the effect is good, we can start mass production."

Ms. Zhao nodded: "Okay, I decided to continue placing the order. But this time, I hope you can guarantee the quality and stability of supply."

Zhou Wanwan sat in her small jewelry studio, the sunlight from the window slanting down on her workbench, dust floating in the beams of light, like countless elves dancing

Her fingers gently stroked a piece of purple crystal that she had just found at the market and was going to use it to make a lavender-themed bracelet.

"Wanwan, you look like you've received another difficult order?" Qianqian pushed the door open, holding a cup of freshly brewed coffee, steaming hot, in her hand.

Zhou Wanwan looked up and smiled bitterly. "Yes, a client asked me to design a bracelet with lavender as the theme, and it should also reflect the flower language of lavender - waiting for love. This is no ordinary challenge."

Qianqian came over, put the coffee on the table, and patted Zhou Wanwan on the shoulder. "Don't worry, you are a jewelry design genius here. This little thing won't be difficult for you."

Zhou Wanwan sighed, "But the flower language of lavender is waiting for love. How can this kind of emotional expression be conveyed through a bracelet?"

Qianqian thought about it, and suddenly her eyes lit up, "Oh, right, you can use that lavender crystal, and add some silver leaves to create a dreamy feeling. As for waiting for love, you can engrave some meaningful words on the clasp of the bracelet, such as 'wait' or 'hope'."

Zhou Wanwan's eyes lit up after hearing this, "Yeah, why didn't I think of that! Qianqian, you are really my muse."

The two smiled at each other, and Zhou Wanwan immediately immersed herself in the design. She first drew a few sketches, then began to select materials, polish, and inlay, doing every step meticulously. Qianqian helped on the side, and made some suggestions from time to time. The two were busy and happy.

However, just as the bracelet was about to be completed, Zhou Wanwan suddenly discovered that the purple crystal she had chosen seemed to have some flaws, which put her in a dilemma.

"Qianqian, look at this crystal. There is a small crack here. Why didn't I notice it before?" Zhou Wanwan frowned and pointed at the flaw on the crystal.

Qianqian came over to take a closer look and said, "Oh, what should we do? How about we look for a better crystal?"

Zhou Wanwan shook her head. "It's too late. The customer will come to pick up the goods tomorrow."

The two fell into silence. Zhou Wanwan's fingers unconsciously stroked the flawed crystal. Suddenly, her eyes lit up, "Qianqian, I have an idea. We can use this flaw and turn it into part of the bracelet. For example, we can design it into a small pattern that symbolizes waiting."

After listening to this, Qianqian also thought that this was a good idea, "Yes, this not only solves the problem, but also increases the uniqueness of the bracelet."

Under the dim light, Zhou Wanwan and Qianqian's conversation was like a tiny spark that ignited the fire of creativity in their hearts. The two decided to transform the flawed crystal into a unique work of art.

They started working on the design, Zhou Wanwan was responsible for drawing the sketches, while Qianqian was responsible for finding suitable materials and tools.

"Qianqian, do you think we can inlay a circle of small pearls around the crystal? This will not only cover up the flaws, but also add a sense of layering to the bracelet." Zhou Wanwan said as she sketched on the paper.

Qianqian nodded. "What a good idea. The roundness of the pearls and the transparency of the crystals will form a good contrast. I remember I have some old pearl necklaces at home. We can take them apart and use them."

The two of them got down to work. Qianqian went home to get the pearls, while Zhou Wanwan took out various small tools from her tool box. They spread a piece of cloth on the carpet in the living room and started making the bracelet...
