Reborn Troops

Zhou Wanwan held a piece of tangerine peel in her hand, her brows furrowed. The dim light in the store made her slightly tired face look even paler.

She stared at the tangerine peel, as if she could see some mystery from its shriveled lines.

She brought the tangerine peel from her hometown, and originally only intended to use it to make tea, but business has been bleak recently, so she had to find another way...

Her fingers unconsciously stroked the shriveled peel, as if she was touching a rare treasure.

Suddenly, her eyes lit up, as if she was struck by some inspiration...

"Chenpi jewelry!" She slammed the table so loudly that even the cat next door jumped in fright.

She stood up excitedly and began to pace back and forth in the store, various designs turning rapidly in her mind.

The smell, texture and color of tangerine peel seem to be perfectly combined with jewelry.

The more she thought about it, the more excited she became, as if she had already seen the tangerine peel jewelry she designed selling well in the market.

At this moment, the door of the store was pushed open, and a gust of cold wind rushed in. Zhou Wanwan looked up and saw that it was her best friend Qianqian.

"Hey, Wanwan, what's wrong with you? You look so excited as if you won the lottery." Qianqian asked with a smile while shaking off the snowflakes on her body.

"Qianqian! You're here just in time!" Zhou Wanwan grabbed Qianqian's hand.

Pulling her to the counter, he said, "I have a great idea! Tangerine peel jewelry! What do you think?"

Qianqian was stunned for a moment, then she laughed: "Dried tangerine peel jewelry? You mean using dried tangerine peel to make jewelry? Wanwan, have you been under too much pressure recently?"

"No, listen to me!" Zhou Wanwan explained eagerly, gesticulating with her hands and feet.

“The smell, texture and color of tangerine peel can be combined with gemstones to make unique jewelry!

Moreover, tangerine peel has a calming effect, so it is perfect to place it next to the bed!"

Qianqian looked at her serious expression and couldn't help laughing: "Wanwan, you are really a genius! But, tangerine peel is so fragile, how can it be combined with gems?"

Zhou Wanwan was stunned for a moment, then frowned: "This... I haven't thought about it yet."

Qianqian patted her shoulder and said with a smile: "Don't worry, I'll help you think of a solution. But you have to buy me a cup of coffee."

"No problem!" Zhou Wanwan agreed readily.

The two sat in a corner of the store, Qianqian drinking coffee while looking through Zhou Wanwan's design sketches.

Her fingers gently ran across the paper, her brows slightly furrowed, as if she was thinking about something.

"Wanwan, have you ever thought about using cinnamon instead of tangerine peel?" Qianqian suddenly said.

"Cinnamon?" Zhou Wanwan was stunned for a moment, "How can cinnamon and gems be combined?"

Qianqian smiled, took out a piece of cinnamon from her bag and handed it to Zhou Wanwan:

“You see, cinnamon is harder than tangerine peel, and it has a stronger aroma and a color that is more suitable for matching with gemstones.

We can carve cassia bark into various shapes and inlay gemstones into them to create unique jewellery.”

Zhou Wanwan took the cinnamon bark and looked at it carefully, her eyes gradually brightening: "Qianqian, you are such a genius! Why didn't I think of it?"

Qianqian smiled proudly: "Of course, I am your best friend!"

The two smiled at each other and then began a heated discussion.

Qianqian's design talent was fully demonstrated at this moment. She not only proposed to use cinnamon bark instead of tangerine peel,

A series of exquisite jewelry sketches were also designed. Zhou Wanwan looked at those sketches with great anticipation.

"But, Wanwan, we also need a nice glass bottle to match these jewelry." Qianqian said suddenly.

"Glass bottle?" Zhou Wanwan was stunned for a moment, "Why do you need a glass bottle?"

Qianqian smiled mysteriously: "Think about it, if these jewelry are placed on the bedside without a nice container, wouldn't it look cheap?

We can design an exquisite glass bottle and put the jewelry inside, which is both beautiful and practical. "

Zhou Wanwan suddenly realized and nodded repeatedly: "Yes! Yes! You are right! We need to find a glass bottle designer!"

Qianqian smiled and said, "No need to look for it, I know a glass bottle designer.

He is my college classmate, Li Ming. He is looking for inspiration recently, we can ask him for help. "

Zhou Wanwan excitedly grabbed Qianqian's hand: "Great! Qianqian, you are really my lucky star!"

Qian Qian smiled and patted her hands: "Don't worry, we have to contact Li Ming first to see if he has time."

The two of them took action immediately and Qianqian called Li Ming.

On the other end of the phone, Li Ming's voice sounded a little tired, but when he heard Qianqian's proposal, he immediately became excited.

"A combination of cinnamon and gemstones? That sounds interesting! I'm looking for inspiration recently.

When are you free? We can meet and talk. " Li Ming's voice was full of anticipation.

Qianqian glanced at Zhou Wanwan and smiled, "How about tomorrow afternoon?"

"No problem!" Li Ming agreed readily.

After hanging up the phone, Zhou Wanwan hugged Qianqian excitedly: "Qianqian, you are amazing! We are one step closer to success!"

Qianqian smiled and patted her on the back: "Don't be too happy too soon. Although Li Ming is a talented designer, he has a bad temper. You have to be mentally prepared."

Zhou Wanwan nodded: "I know, I will be careful."
