During the Qingming season, it rains a lot.

It rained heavily for three days in a row, and today on April 1st, the sky finally looked long, the clouds opened and the fog dispersed, the sun was shining, and finally it was clear.

After a heavy rain, you can't pick tea right away, you must wait until the rain on the tea tree is dry.

Luo Yan invited a group of tea pickers from her mother's house, and twenty or thirty men, women, and children carried small bamboo baskets up the mountain to pick tea.

At the bottom of the mountain, Zhuo Yifan drove a white off-road vehicle and parked on the side of the road in Luoyan Tea Garden, waiting for her first batch of shoots to come down the mountain. Today, I invite two helpers who are specifically responsible for weighing and delivering tea.

Before, Luo Yan carefully taught me how to fry Maojian tea. My fingers have been burned countless times, and now my fingers are still red and burning. Today, the sky is beautiful and the sun is shining. According to the mobile phone online weather forecast, there will be no rain for the next three days, and there will be heavy rain after seven days. The people of Tianyun Village took advantage of the weather and hurriedly got up early and picked the most tender Maojian tea.

Two hours later, the tea harvester came down the mountain.

Zhuo Yifan ran over to take a look, the tips of the tender little buds, and his eyes were full of the aroma of tea. It is intoxicatingly aromatic.

got in the car, Zhuo Yifan took the ten catties of fresh tea he had collected, and immediately went back to work. The two masters at home are waiting to start roasting tea.

Everything was ready, only tea was owed, and Zhuo Yifan only drove to the old house for two minutes.

Get out of the car and run to the old house with a bamboo basket in your hand.

The two young masters took the tea in their hands. The two of them are school-graduated roasted tea masters with two years of practical roasting experience. Zhuo Yifan was on the side.

In the past, he really thought that he could stir up tea, but after actual verification, Zhuo Yifan knew that roasting tea was not something that no one did. It is only after demonization training that it reaches the level of craftsmanship with ease. So I gave up, and the idea of roasting tea by myself became the best choice to be a boss.

According to the experience of roasting tea in Tianyun Village, four catties of tea leaves are fried and one catty of dry tea is fried after the rain, and about three catties of tea are fried and one catty of dry tea is fried before the rain. After the tender tea is electronically weighed. The normal standard is one pound of dry tea and one pot.

Stir-fry a pot of dry hairy green tea. Zhuo Yifan clearly remembered this standard.

The salary of the roasted tea master is calculated based on how many catties of dry tea are fried. How much can the two of them fry? I can't calculate, because there are too many uncertainties.

Zhuo Yifan helped to raise the firewood.

The two young masters reached into the hot 180-degree iron pot with their bare hands and began to stir-fry.

Roasted tea is for rapid finishing and dehydration, and quickly protects the trace elements in the tea from loss. Why can't machinery and equipment replace hand-roasted tea? Zhuo Yifan has not yet understood this concept.

Handmade teas are traditional teas, especially Maojian tea. Its market price positioning is several grades higher than that of machine-fried tea. Zhuo Yifan has always been determined to roast tea by hand, which cannot be replaced by machine roasted tea.

A pot of tea needs to be fried and kneaded five times repeatedly, and there is no standard for determining the time. The key to success or failure for first-class good tea lies in the eyesight of the roasted tea master.

Zhuo Yifan stayed next to the roasted tea master and watched calmly. The first time, with my own lack of experience, it was all up to the master's eyesight, and I had to carefully observe the quality of the tea at this time.

"How's it going?" Luo Yan asked as he approached.

Zhuo Yifan observed carefully in confusion and said, "It's almost out of the pot." ”

Luo Yan went over in person, grabbed a handful of tea from the wok, took it out and took a look, and then put it in the pot and the master continued to fry, nodding with great satisfaction.

"Master, can you fry the tips of green hair here?" Zhuo Yifan bent down and asked.

The two masters smelled it and laughed.

"Tea can be fried here. ”

"Really?" Zhuo Yifan didn't seem to understand.

"Green hair tip, better than white hair tip, right?" Zhuo Yifan continued to ask with concern.

"There are no white hairs here. ”

The two masters shook their heads as they spoke.

Zhuo Yifan was still confused, skeptically unable to figure it out.

"The tea we have here is all green hair. Luo Yan took out a sprout and said, "Look, is there white fluff on the sprout?"

Zhuo Yifan carefully found that the young shoots on his fingers did not have white fluff, but saw green fluff. Now I finally understand. Green Maojian Tea is the specialty tea of our Tianyun Tea. The essential difference between it and Baimaojian tea is not the process, but the tea itself.

When I drank Zhuo Gang's green hairy tea, I thought it was the best made only by his family.

At this point, it dawned on me and understood.

Zhuo Yifan took out his mobile phone to search for Du Niang. The search results showed that there was no word for green hair jian tea at all, only many other similar advertisements. The search is more about Baimaojian tea, as well as its market reference price.

With an idea, Zhuo Yifan mastered the information of the best tea. The market positioning of green hair tip is much higher than that of white hair tip tea.

"Out of the pot!" a master shouted.

After a dish of green tea has been fried and kneaded five times, a pot of green maojian tea is formed out of the pot. It's about the same shape as eyebrow tea.

Mei tea is a type of green tea. Mei tea is shaped like the tip of the eyebrow, called Mei tea, also called evergreen tea. The tip of the green hair is also a type of eyebrow tea. Lumaojian tea is a specialty tea of Tianyun Village tea. Because it is not well-known and does not have a brand with green hair, it cannot be found in the Internet dictionary to introduce its samples.

After the final process of green maojian tea is completed, after cooling, it can be brewed fresh green tea to drink.

After the start of the work, it is necessary to drink it when you are the boss.

Luo Yan took the boiled water, put the first pot of fresh green tea into a glass, and poured boiling water at eighty or ninety degrees.

After a while, the green hair tips are suspended in the water, and the upper and lower layers are distinct.

Green tea depends on the quality of tea, which should be distinguished one by one.

One look at the soup color.

Looking at the color of the soup, the higher the transparency, the better the tea quality. The greener the soup color, it means that the craftsmanship is insufficient, or the essence of the tea is poor.

Zhuo Yifan and Luo Yan followed the master to see that the soup in the glass was symmetrical and transparent, with a slight light green color.

From the appearance of this green hair tip to the best, but a little worse. It may have something to do with tea. This is the tea after the rain, and the water is sufficient, which is the reason why the finishing is not enough.

Second, smell the aroma of the soup.

Smell the soup fragrant, the fragrance is high and lasting. The more fragrant and strong the tea, the better the tea quality. And keep it for a long time.

Zhuo Yifan smelled it, and the first cup of tea reached a high fragrance and lasting.

Three tastes of soup.

Taste the soup taste, the taste is strong, the taste is mellow, and the fresh fragrance is pure.

Zhuo Yifan drank the first sip of green maojian tea, which reached the standard of mellow taste, and the aftertaste was long.

"Good tea!"

After three levels of roasted tea, the two roasted tea masters unanimously tasted it as the best tea.

Zhuo Yifan and Luo Yan looked at each other happily and continued to taste the first cup of green hairy tea this year.

From the finished tea, Zhuo Yifan saw that the green hair tip tea cord is tight, the color is green, the fragrance is high and lasting, and the green hair is tight and distinct. It belongs to the best evergreen tea.

Luo Yan followed Zhuo Yifan to watch carefully, this is the finished product made of her own tea. It's the same as the one you stir-fried.

Sweet to the bottom of her heart, Luo Yan smiled brightly at Zhuo Yifan.

The phone rang.

Zhuo Yifan took out his mobile phone and saw that it was the phone number of his old classmate Zhuo Gang.

"Hey, Boss Zhuo, hello!" Zhuo Yifan said as he picked up his phone.

Luo Yan saw him talking to a boss Zhuo on the phone, so he had found a buyer.

"Okay, thank you!" Zhuo Yifan finished speaking, and a smile spread on his face.

Zhuo Yifan put his mobile phone in his trouser pocket, went to Luo Yan's side and whispered, "Zhuo Gang's phone." ”

"Zhuo Gang?" Luo Yan didn't have a good impression of him when she heard that she thought of him. He is simply a pervert, and he once sent me harassing WeChat and those erotic pictures.

"Well, he's heard that I'm making tea. He asked me to take some samples and show him, and if the quality was good, he could help me sell them. Zhuo Yifan said as he went to another quiet place.

Luo Yan followed and listened to him.

"He wants to accept your tea?" Luo Yan asked.

"Hmm. How much tea can you make today?" Zhuo Yifan was worried that he wouldn't be able to make many catties of green hair tips today.

"Take a look. I went to the tea garden to help pick tea. Luo Yan knew and said.

Zhuo Yifan hurried away after seeing what she said.

Just after walking a few steps, Luo Yan took out her mobile phone and asked, "Yifan, is there something wrong?"

"Tomorrow, let's go together tomorrow. ”

"To Zhuo Gang?" Luo Yan asked with a hesitant look.

"Well, I'll come back and talk about it. ”

"Well, be careful on the mountain, don't fall. ”

Luo Yan smelled Xintian and smiled, and then her heart was full of warmth, as if she was in love.

"Yifan!" Zhuo Yifan heard the shout, immediately hung up the phone with Luo Yan, and turned around to see the village branch secretary coming.

"Uncle!" Zhuo Yifan ran two steps to the front of the village branch. He is Zhuo Gang's father, named Zhuo Tianhai, an old branch secretary, the same age as my father, fifty-one.

"Yifan, make tea. The village branch walked up to the fried green hairy tea with his hands behind his back, grabbed it, smelled it, and took a look.

"Hehe, uncle, it's the first time to make tea. Zhuo Yifan came to the front and said with a smile.

"Hmm. Zhuo Tianhai, the village party secretary, nodded and said, "Kaichun tea, you have to pick it in time, don't fry the tea overnight." ”

"Well, I know. The tea picked today must be fried. Zhuo Yifan listened to him.

"The weather. Zhuo Tianhai looked up at the sky and said, "Don't rain." ”

"I've looked at the weather forecast and there will be no rain for the next three days. Uncle, do you have a lot of people in your family?" Zhuo Yifan asked with concern by the way.

"I invited fifty or sixty people, but I couldn't invite anyone. Rushed to death. Zhuo Tianhai, the village branch, has dozens of acres of high-quality tea gardens at home, and hundreds of people are invited to pick tea every year. This year, perhaps for special reasons, there are nearly half of the people missing. In the past, please ask Luo Yan to call some people. No, she changed her mind this year and helped Zhuo Yifan.

Seeing that the village party secretary frowned, Zhuo Yifan didn't say much.

"Yifan, do you have a place to sell your tea?" asked the village party secretary with a hand on his shoulder.

"Yes. Zhuo Gang called just now. Said to help me sell and asked me to bring samples over. Zhuo Yifan said happily.

"Zhuo Gang. It's a call I made early in the morning. The village party secretary suddenly came to the heart and said, "It's not easy for you to go home and start a business, I'm afraid that the tea you make won't sell, so I asked him to help you." This green tea, especially the green hairy tea, has a fresh shelf life of only three months. After three months, the price is suspended, and the price cannot be sold, so the new tea must be sold immediately. ”

"Hey, thank you, uncle!" Zhuo Yifan listened.

"If you can't finish your tea today, put it to me. Zhuo Tianhai, the village party secretary, said happily.

"Hey, thank you!" Zhuo Yifan agreed very happily.

"Hurry up. I'm just coming to see you. Now I'm back. Zhuo Tianhai, the village party secretary, left after speaking.

"Thank you! Zhuo Yifan suddenly had a reassurance. The tea I made in the future has a place to sell, which removes a large piece of heart disease.

After a while, the two masters who collected the tea came with new tea leaves.

Zhuo Yifan went over to help, and worked with the masters to fry today's tea and strictly control the quality.
