Ten minutes later, Qin Feng and Xue Jiahui were taken into the office of Cao Guoming, chairman of Yougu Group.

This office is even more spacious than Cao Guozheng's, and as soon as you enter the room, you will smell a refreshing sandalwood fragrance coming to your nose, which is immediately refreshing.

Qin Feng just glanced at it, and there was a look of shock in his eyes. Because almost all the guys in the entire room are made of small leaf red sandalwood, just the furniture in this office is probably worth at least tens of millions.

At this moment, in the living room of the room, on the chair of the main master, there is a man in his 60s with a slightly chubby body and a fair complexion, his eyes are closed, he is playing with a string of Buddhist beads in his hands, and there are words in his mouth.

On the coffee table in front of him were six lamps of different textures. The fragrance of tea in each building cup is overflowing.

Cao Guozheng said with a smile: "Qin Feng, each of you has three cups of tea, and after tasting, say the name of the tea and the place of origin." ”

Xue Jiahui heard that it was tea again, and her head suddenly became three times bigger.

Qin Feng smiled slightly and said, "It seems that Mr. Cao is really a tea lover." Sitting in this furniture kingdom full of small leaves of red sandalwood, smelling elegant sandalwood, using the building lamp of the Song Dynasty, and tasting the best tea, this is enjoyment. ”

Cao Guozheng looked at Qin Feng with some surprise and said, "Do you know how to build a lamp?"

Qin Feng said very modestly: "Do you know a little bit about it?"

Cao Guozheng asked: "Then why do you recognize at a glance that the six Jianzhan in front of you are all Song Dynasty Jianzhan?"

Qin Feng smiled: "Mr. Cao, I didn't say that these six Jianzhan are all from the Song Dynasty." The first three are from the Song Dynasty, while the last three are modern. Not the same. ”

The look of surprise in Cao Guozheng's eyes was even stronger, and even Cao Guoming, who had been spinning the Buddha beads in his hand next to him, paused slightly when he heard this, and raised his eyebrows slightly, but he didn't open his eyes.

Cao Guozheng and Cao Guoming both knew that Cao Guozheng had actually set a trap for Qin Feng just now, if Qin Feng did not refute it, then Qin Feng would have failed this level.

If Qin Feng can taste the origin and name of the tea, it can only be regarded as a customs clearance, but it is not perfect, because the real purpose of Cao Guoming's design of this level is to test the eyesight of the person being tested, to see if the other party can identify the dynasty of Jianzhan.

Qin Feng's understatement directly resolved the trap of Cao Guoming's brothers.

Cao Guozheng stared at Qin Feng and asked, "Qin Feng, why do you think that the first three are from the Song Dynasty, while the last three are modern?"

Qin Feng said with a smile: "To distinguish between the Song Dynasty and ancient times, the main thing to distinguish is from four aspects, one look at the kiln.

In the Song Dynasty, traditional dragon kilns were used for firing, while in modern times, electric kilns were mainly used, and a small number of gas kilns were used.

Second, look at the tire. The Song people used to drink tea for the Jianzhan for the mouth of the mouth of the majority, the bundle mouth and open mouth type generally appear on the tea bowl, rarely appear on the small type. The Song people built a mouthpart type with thinner tires and lighter weight, which is more convenient for daily use. In order to pursue the yield and the so-called pressure hand, the modern Jianzhan also uses thick tires for the tea cup used for drinking tea.

Three look at the glaze.

The glaze of the Song Dynasty Jianzhan is made of grass, wood and soil ash, the ash glaze is the earliest high-temperature glaze developed in China, the mineral type in the grass ash is very rich, but the composition is not easy to master, different species of plants contain different chemicals, if it is mixed firing, the composition is more complex. The glaze water used in modern firing is not as complex as in the Song Dynasty, and each author of firing Jianzhan has his own glaze water recipe.

Fourth, look at the firing.

The firing temperature range of Jianzhan is very narrow, the critical point is within a few degrees, the higher the temperature, the narrower the critical point, and the lower the temperature, the wider the critical point. The temperature and atmosphere of each kiln in the Song Dynasty dragon kiln were different, and there were only a few places where the most suitable temperature and atmosphere were suitable. In modern electric kilns, the temperature is often controlled by instruments in this aspect of firing.

Take, for example, this rabbit. ”

While speaking, Qin Feng pointed to the two Jianzhan in front of him and said: "The rabbit in front of him has a sauce-red fetal color, this is because the iron content in the fetal quality of the Jiancha cup during the Song Dynasty is high, and it is affected by carbon monoxide gas in the kiln, and the tire color is black or sauce-red. The modern handicrafts and imitations are white in color, and they are mostly inked and blackened. Although the finished product is very similar after it comes out, you can still see the difference if you look closely. ”

After finishing speaking, Qin Feng picked up this cup of rabbit and looked at it, smelled it, tasted it, and said with a smile: "This tea tea bud is fat and well-proportioned, soft and delicate, Haofeng is exposed, like a bird's tongue, golden yellow, the tea soup is clear, apricot yellow, bright, the entrance taste is mellow, sweet aftertaste, this is the top grade of tea Huangshan Maofeng."

As for this cup of tea, it should be Qimen black tea. ”

While speaking, Qin Feng picked up the cup of tea on the left and looked at it, smelled it and said with a smile: "That's right, it is Qimen black tea, the appearance is tight and symmetrical, the inner quality is fragrant and has a honey fragrance, the taste is mellow, dry and fresh, and it is the best in black tea." ”

At this time, Cao Guoming, who had been closing his eyes tightly, suddenly opened his eyes, and said with a sense of pressure in his peaceful eyes: "This third cup doesn't need to be identified, this little brother's tea ceremony knowledge is rich enough, and this first level has passed." Let's go straight to the second level. ”

Cao Guozheng nodded, looked at Qin Feng with a smile and said: "Qin Feng, these three kinds of tea, each tea must recite a poem, you can quote the verses of the ancients, or you can compose your own poems on the spot, the preparation time is 2 minutes, after 2 minutes, the three poems need to come out, after each poem is finished, you can have five steps of thinking time." Within five steps, the next poem must be produced. ”

Hearing this request, Xue Jiahui said with some dissatisfaction: "I said Mr. Cao, are you too embarrassed, when Cao Pi made things difficult for Cao Zhi back then, he only ordered him to write a poem in seven steps, but you only gave a time of five steps, isn't it too exaggerated." I really can't write two Cao characters with one stroke. ”

Cao Guozheng smiled slightly: "Jiang Taigong fishes, and those who wish to take the bait." ”

Qin Feng gently patted Xue Jiahui's shoulder and said, "Don't worry, I don't need to write a poem in five steps, and I don't need two minutes of time, I can recite it directly now." ”

To write the poem of Huangshan Maofeng, I will directly borrow the poem "Remembering Mingya" by Li Deyu, the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty:

The spring in the valley is warm, and the tea is gradually recalled.

If you want to clear the fire, you can wake up drunk.

The pine flowers are fluttering, and the orchid gas is light.

After drinking, there is nothing to do, and the river is up.

As for Qimen black tea, I'll compose a poem myself:

The tea is leisurely and charming, and the condensation slid into the poem.

Yelang green innocent taste, Bengu black tea holy fragrance.

Although my poem is not as good as the artistic conception of Li Deyu, a big man, I believe that it can be regarded as a suitable fit. ”

After Qin Feng finished reciting, although Cao Guoming was still sitting in place, showing the posture of a chairman of a large company, he was obviously a little more surprised when he looked at Qin Feng.

Qin Feng's performance was greatly beyond his expectations.

As for Cao Guozheng, it was the opposite of Cao Guoming, Qin Feng's successive accidents had already made him accustomed to it, but he was not shocked, he felt that this was normal, so he said with a smile: "Then how are you going to recite this cup of nine-song red plum?"

Qin Feng glanced at Cao Guozheng dissatisfiedly and said: "I said Mr. Cao, is there too much in your heart, isn't it obvious to dig a pit for me, although I haven't tasted this cup of tea yet, but just by looking at the color of the tea soup and the shape of the bottom leaf, I can also judge a seven, seven, eighty, eight, eight, if my guess is right, this cup of tea should be the best Wuyi Mountain big red robe." This tea is very precious, and it is difficult for ordinary people to get it, and I am afraid that only you top tea merchants can get it.

As for this cup of tea poems in Wuyi Mountain's big red robe, I will directly quote the first four sentences in Mr. Fan Zhongyan's "Song of Fighting Tea with Zhang Min":

Every spring from the southeast, Jianxi first warms the ice and opens slightly.

The strange tea by the stream crowns the world, and the Wuyi immortals have planted it since ancient times. ”

After chanting, Qin Feng looked at Cao Guoming, who had been sitting there, with a smile.

At this moment, Cao Guoming had already stood up.

It was the first time he was truly moved today.

You know, don't look at the front Qin Feng is very simple, but it is precisely these seemingly simple first two levels that have stumped many top tea masters.

Tea masters may have a first-class level of tea recognition, but they may not be able to understand tea poetry, and even if they know tea poetry, they may not know how to appreciate tea utensils.

And this time came to the valley group to kick the field to come to the tea fight, but the leader in the field of Japanese tea NHG group in Asia president Koizumi Saburo, and with him Miyamoto Musashi is Japan's top tea master, Miyamoto Musashi ancestors have been following the Koizumi family to engage in the tea business, and he was sent to China to study since he was a child, proficient in Chinese and various tea ceremony skills, poetry, songs, writing, and antiques, proficient in everything, can be regarded as a master of Sinology, no one knows what kind of tea fight will be proposed by the valley group to kick the field tea fight。

He knew that the Japanese had always disliked the idea of counting milestones.

The most important thing is that Saburo Koizumi has informed Cao Guoming that the process of this tea fight will be broadcast live on the whole world through online video, so for this tea fight, Cao Guoming can not have the slightest mistake, this tea fight is an opportunity for both sides, but also a challenge, this is a winner-takes-all tea fight. It is also one of the most tragic business wars launched with culture.

The winner can at least gain billions of market share, and the loser will definitely lose a lot of market share.

Cao Guoming felt a little ridiculous this time in the tea fight, he originally wanted to negotiate with the Japanese NHG Tea Group to negotiate the market share, but he did not expect that Koizumi Saburo directly proposed to use the tea fight to replace commercial competition and business negotiation.

Cao Guoming, as a top tea merchant in the country of origin of tea, naturally could not compromise with Little Japan, so he agreed without hesitation.

But when he came back, after some careful research, he found out that he had been fooled.

Saburo Koizumi had obviously dug a pit for him to jump on his own. In desperation, Cao Guoming visited all the tea ceremony masters to participate in the three tests he designed, but no one passed, which made Cao Guoming unable to think and sleep at night during the recent period.

But he didn't expect that Qin Feng, the sales representative of the Xue Group, who came over to run the business, would pass two levels in a row, how could he not be shocked.

Cao Guoming couldn't care about putting on a high-ranking stand anymore, and came directly to Qin Feng's side and said, "Qin Feng, come with me, let's go directly to the third level." ”

Qin Feng nodded and stepped to follow, Xue Jiahui wanted to follow, but saw Cao Guozheng and said, "Miss Xue, don't follow." ”

Xue Jiahui was a little unhappy, but she had to bow her head under the low eaves.

Qin Feng stopped and said, "Mr. Cao, let Xue Jiahui follow, if she doesn't keep up, I won't go to this third level." ”

Cao Guozheng couldn't help frowning, Cao Guoming's face was also a little ugly, and he groaned slightly, he could only say, "Okay, let's follow together." ”

Qin Feng waited for Xue Jiahui to come over, and then the two walked inside side by side.

Through a door, there is an exhibition hall of more than 100 square meters, and there are 8 pairs of calligraphy and paintings hanging in the exhibition hall, which look very old.

Cao Guozheng said: "Qin Feng, this is the third level, two of the eight calligraphy paintings on this wall are real, you must find these two authentic works within an hour." And give the reasons for distinguishing the authenticity. ”

Qin Feng nodded, and began to carefully evaluate the nearest painting, the first painting Qin Feng took 8 minutes, the second painting took 5 minutes, the third painting took 3 minutes, and the next few paintings took less than 1 minute, after reading it, Qin Feng sneered and looked at the two Cao Guoming brothers and said: "Two Mr. Cao, it seems that you Yougu Group really likes to dig holes for people, you told me that two of the 8 paintings are genuine, but in my opinion, none of these eight paintings are genuine, they are all old after copying." ”

After Qin Feng finished speaking, Xue Jiahui's face was a little ugly, and she said dissatisfiedly: "Qin Feng, I think let's go, people like them who like to dig holes for others are not the best partners to cooperate with at all, even if they agree to cooperate with us, we have to consider whether they will dig holes for us, this kind of cooperation is not interesting." ”

Qin Feng was also a little fed up with the Cao brothers' little tricks, and walked out directly.

Cao Guoming looked a little anxious, and hurriedly took two steps to reach out and grab Qin Feng and said: "Little brother Qin Feng, don't be impatient, I know that our test today is indeed a little not bright, but I hope you can understand one or two, after all, these three tests are related to the great business interests of our Yougu Group in the next 5~10 years, and we dare not be a little sloppy."

Now that you've passed all three levels, I'll tell you straight, as long as you help me defeat the Japanese NHG Group's premium tea ceremony master who came to kick the field tomorrow morning, I will agree to you no matter what you ask. ”

Qin Feng stopped: "Are you sure?"

Cao Guoming smiled: "I am the chairman. ”

Qin Feng said: "Okay, let's do it, I'll come over tomorrow to try, if I win by luck, I don't have any other requirements, I just need to give us the 8 million order of Yougu Electrical Equipment Company to Xue's Hongyuan Electronics." ”

Cao Guoming nodded: "Okay, it's a word." You'll have to be here by 9 a.m. tomorrow. When the time comes, the Japanese will come to the door and kick the field. ”

Dear friends, each chapter of Mengmeng is full of gold, even if each chapter has 5000 words or 6000 words, it will never be split into chapters, in order to let everyone see a wonderful story heartily, and I hope you will support more.
