Chapter 126 0121Tao Tea(2/2)
The process is a bit tortuous, but the results are already showing.
The transfer envoy thought that green tea was not bad and easy to drink, so he served several guests with green tea.
The news quickly spread throughout the transportation department, then to the Xingyuan government office, and then to the Nanzheng county government office. Officials who did not take green tea seriously quickly went to look for gifts sent by the Zheng family and followed suit with green tea.
serve customer.
Over and over again, the wealthy businessmen of Xingyuan Prefecture inquired about the origin of the tea. In addition to drinking it themselves, they also wanted to buy it and give it as gifts!
It spreads so quickly that it cannot be done purely through speculation. The main thing is that the green tea itself must be excellent.
The young man opened the oil paper bag and smelled it: "The fragrance is not stuffy, it is quiet and high-spirited, it is indeed a good thing. The Zheng family is in great trouble. If they have good tea that is not sold in Xingyuan Mansion, we have to come to Yangzhou."
The servant said: "Lang Jun, all the tea, wine and vinegar in Xingyuan Mansion have been bought by the Wu family, Huang family and Chen family. The Zheng family cannot open a shop there."
"That's right, we have to wait for those three companies to purchase the goods." The young man nodded and said.
The young man twisted the tea leaves in his hands and muttered: "Gentleman's tea, gentleman's tea, I haven't drunk it yet, so I don't know how it tastes. Ask the store to boil a pot of water!"
Boiled water is ready, and the store clerk came over quickly with a kettle.
The young man was just making tea when someone came into the shop carrying a sack.
The shopkeeper was very happy when he saw it. He hung up the water sign with the word "Gentleman's Tea" on it and shouted at the top of his voice: "This shop serves gentleman's tea. It costs five cents a bowl. You can add water to brew it many times. This gentleman's tea is not
It’s simple, it was made by Zhu Zhengjun, a scholar from the Eighth Route Army. The princes in the government all like to drink it, and the scholars in the state also like to drink it..."
Is it available in restaurants?
Only five cents a bowl?
The young man suddenly felt that the gentleman's tea in the bowl was no longer fragrant.
"How long does the tea wait in this shop?" the young man asked.
The shopkeeper replied: "Third class."
The young man muttered: "It's not just a matter of waiting."
"Make me a bowl," said a diner. "I've heard of Junzi Tea before, but I haven't tried it yet. I want to try it today."
The shop assistant came over quickly, grabbed a handful from the sack, threw it into a bowl and poured boiling water.
"That's it?"
"Gentleman's tea is very expensive. It only costs five cents."
The diner didn't know what to say. He had already finished his meal and couldn't wait to taste it when the boiling water cooled down a little.
Noticing that the neighboring tables were looking at him, the diners immediately praised: "Good tea, not astringent, very refreshing."
The shopkeeper smiled and said: "All the princes in the government like to drink it, so it is naturally good tea."
If it was just spread from top to bottom, it would never be possible to spread so quickly. The Zheng family also made up stories and hired people to tell them everywhere. They didn't tell anything else, but only said that the nobles loved to drink green tea, which caused all kinds of speculations among the common people.
Another diner who was not short of money said, "I'll have a bowl too!"
Xue Daoguang finished two bowls of rice, listened to the discussion in the store, and became more curious about the "junior brother".
Why are there traces of their father and son everywhere from Xingyuan Prefecture to Yangzhou?
It has even spread to Kaifeng, so the reputation is so great!
"Give me a bowl too," Xue Daoguang shouted, "Don't put too little tea, just the right amount. It'll cost you a lot."
The store clerk then threw in more: "Seven Wen."
Xue Daoguang looked at the tea leaves that were gradually brewing. The green color made people like it, and it was much more natural than Tuancha.
