Walk to the depths of the XH area, walk through the winding paths, enjoy the lush greenery on both sides, and suddenly come to a place where the willows are dark and bright, and the front is Wengjiashan Village.

Entering the village gate, there are white walls and black tiles everywhere in front of you, and if it weren't for the wooden plaque printed with the words Century Hualian on the side of the road, Johnson would have the illusion that he has crossed over.

Get off the car and walk, the mountain village is very quiet, the old women put their hands into their cuffs, and talk with the neighbors, their mouths are small dialects, a little Wu Nong's soft language feeling, it sounds very comfortable, pulling homely, talking and laughing.

The old men mostly sat in the tea house at the door, drank tea and read the newspaper, and only when they pushed their reading glasses did they notice the newcomers in the village, smiled kindly at everyone, and continued to read the newspaper carefully.

According to the address, I found Lao Du, a senior tea farmer, who heard that it was Yu Bin who introduced him and wanted to buy good tea and warmly received everyone into the house.

I heard that I wanted to go up the mountain to have a look, so I took out a few military coats and said that it was cold in the mountains, so I climbed all the way up. The higher you go, the wider your field of vision, and you can see that the mountains are full of tea trees, and a piece of greenery stretches to the horizon.

Tell Johnson that the tea here is called West Lake Longjing, and only the whole mountain of Wengjiashan Village is planted with the real Shifeng Longjing.

I saw a lot of brands on the road, what is the West Lake Longjing Base Class I Protection Area, the National Gift Tea Designated Unit, Zhang Yiyuan West Lake Longjing Wengjiashan Base, Hangzhou Tea Factory West Lake Longjing Wengjiashan Base......

Finally, he pointed to a piece and said confidently: "There are many signs standing in Chashan, some of which are ancient and some of which are in recent years. Every piece is the pride of our Wengjia villagers!"

"Especially this one, in 2004, the government set up a stone tablet for Wengjiashan Village in the first-class protection area of the West Lake Longjing Tea Base, which shows the status of Wengjiashan Village in the West Lake Longjing. ”

The words are full of pride, do a line of love, don't look at people facing the loess all day long, in fact, the income is very high, at least two or three million a year.

When he came to his own tea field, he said: "Wengjiashan Village has a total of 300 households, 720 tea farmers, and a total of nearly 1,000 acres of tea gardens, covering an area of about 1.6 square kilometers. Thanks to God's appreciation of food, you can see that it is Tianzhu Mountain in the north, which can not only block the cold northwest wind, but also suck in the humid air from the south. ”

"The valleys in this area maintain full humidity and temperature, often shrouded in fog. In addition, the valley is rich in forests, streams and streams, fertile soil, mostly acidic sand loess, with good aeration and water permeability, and rich minerals such as phosphorus, calcium, and magnesium......"

"Our tea farmers have been passed down from generation to generation, and after hundreds of years of practice, we have accumulated a whole set of technology, which is characterized by shaking, belting, squeezing, throwing, straightening, stretching, grinding, buckle, pressing, grasping and other techniques, and only after the secret recipe can we achieve the characteristics of the Phnom Penh green leaves of Longjing tea. ”

The more he talked, the happier he became, pointing to the tea fields all over the mountains, and said domineeringly: "This mountain is our root, and every family has been drinking their own tea and picking their own tea for generations, and they have confidence and a sense of belonging!"

"Every day, no matter whether it is windy or rainy, I have to go up the mountain four or five times to find my own tea field, and I feel that it is not tea trees that have been planted there, but the hope of my family. ”

"Looking around again, the whole village has been planted together for generations, all gathered together, this is called lively, this is called a hundred generations in the same house. ”

After speaking, he directly started and displayed: "This is the lotus heart...... This is a flag gun...... It's called a finch tongue. Spring tea is mined according to the standard of one bud and one leaf, one bud and one leaf of summer and autumn tea are mined, and one bud, two and three leaves are picked in the later stage. ”

"Tea is a time grass, three days early is a treasure, and three days late is a grass. Pay attention to picking a flower, should pick a flower does not stay, should not pick a flower do not pick, when the buds and leaves grow quickly and it is too late to pick. ”

"Spring tea is mined in late March when the tea leaves have just revealed a few tender tips, one bud and one leaf are mined, once a day or every other day, and it ends before the beginning of summer. Summer tea is generally mined after the beginning of summer and ends in mid-June. ”

Skillfully plucked a few pieces of tea with his hands, and said with a smile: "Tea picking can not be pinched, pinched tea leaves, pinch marks can not be removed after making tea, in ancient times, the tea leaves paid tribute to the emperor were picked by tea girls with their lips." ”

"At the beginning, I picked tea with one hand, palm down, thumb and index finger to pinch the tender stems on the fish leaves, and gently lifted the buds and leaves upward. The buds and leaves are picked into flowers, the size is consistent, the uniformity is good, and there are no old stems, old leaves and pedicles, which will not hurt the buds and leaves, and will not sprain the stems. ”

"Like we all use our hands, like a chicken pecking rice, picking a flower and throwing it into the tea blue, which greatly improves the efficiency of tea picking. ”

The hands are like butterflies wearing flowers, extremely dexterous, flying up and down, dazzling. Johnson couldn't help but sigh that there was a specialization in the art industry.

"After the fresh leaves fall under the tree, the water loss accelerates, and it must be packed in a bamboo basket. Lao Du picked up the bamboo basket and said: "The small one I brought today, at most two catties, the fresh leaves must not be pressed, and they will be transported down the mountain in batches little by little." ”

Johnson looked at a large tea field, good guy, how many times is this going to run?

It is said that if the leaves stay in the hand for a while, the temperature of the hand will make the leaves turn from green to red.

It's so tender!

Tea before the Ming Dynasty, the buds are like lotus hearts, a skilled tea girl, can only pick up to 12 taels of buds every day, a pound of dry tea has 36,000 buds, extremely precious, the best in the treasures.

A good roasted tea person needs to start learning the craft in his teens, and the level of skill has a great impact on the quality. Traditionally, women pick tea in West Lake Longjing, and men are responsible for roasting tea.

Seeing Lao Du Cai full of a small bamboo basket, everyone went down the mountain and returned home. Take out the fried new tea, make a large pot, and let Johnson taste it.

The taste is really good, especially when you see it with your own eyes, the impression is even better. Ordinary one catty is eight hundred, medium grade is two thousand five, and top grade is eight thousand per catty.

How much do you want, Lao Du is reluctant, he scrapes together enough pounds, and reluctantly says: "Save some drink, today's rain is good, the harvest is good, and next year is not necessarily!"

Go home, keep five catties for yourself, and drink slowly. Evening and red wine, unclog blood vessels and help sleep. Drink Longjing during the day to clear heat and detoxify and eliminate oiliness.

Well

Very good!
