Chapter 398: The Tea Merchant and the Second Stunned
When Li Qingyun went out, he saw that the two stunned people were fiddling with an old peach tree by the pond, the peach blossoms were smashed by the raindrops, and the petals fell into the pond, attracting some surviving eels to scramble and play.
There were three tea merchants standing next to the two stunned people, dressed differently from the villagers, and they were more exquisite. They were boredly looking at a cherry tree next to them, some of the branches still blooming with small pink flowers, and some of the branches were full of small cherries.
These fruit trees are not deliberately grafted and cultivated, and the varieties are relatively chaotic. For example, there were originally two large varieties of cherries in the village, one with pink flowers and the other with white flowers. Later, somehow, the number of cherries planted in the bunche increased, and the flower color did not change much, but the fruits were clearly different, and the taste was also ever-changing, with sweet and sour, large and small, and excellent varieties that were sour, sweet and large.
Seeing Li Qingyun come out, the second stunned man immediately threw down his hands full of peach blossoms, and said with a show: "Fuwa, they want to buy your family's tea, I brought them over." If I hadn't picked tea for your family, I wouldn't have recognized it. ”
Li Qingyun was a little dizzy when he heard it, and he didn't understand what the second stunned man meant.
The tea merchant standing at the front, in his forties, with elegant glasses, has a bit of polite feeling, and smiled before speaking: "You are Mr. Li Qingyun, right? We can enter into long-term supply agreements. Of course, the price will be slightly higher than that of other teas. ”
As he spoke, the man with glasses beckoned back, and another tea merchant took out a fine iron box from his leather bag, and when he opened it, he revealed a full box of tea leaves, the color of which was emerald green, although it had been fried, the pure color was still intact.
This tea is being produced in the mountains behind Li Qingyun's farm, and Li Qingyun can confirm it at a glance. But I heard the words of the glasses man. But he was extremely dissatisfied. This group of profiteers. How many years have the tea households in this village been pitted, and when they encounter the best tea produced by themselves, they are lucky enough to receive more than 30 catties, and they actually have the face to come to the door. Said to work together for the long term. The price offered is only slightly higher than that of ordinary tea.
"I'm sorry. We don't produce tea in our house. Hehe, after it is fried, it will only sell for twenty or thirty yuan per catty. That's not as good as growing cabbage. You guys, go to other people's houses and ask, if you want to buy cabbage, you can come to our house and have a look. After Li Qingyun finished speaking, Chong Er smiled mysteriously and blinked again. I was too lazy to entangle with this group of tea merchants, and directly denied it, wanting them to leave quickly.
Nima, who said that the two stunned people are stupid.
The goods immediately slapped his thigh and shouted in a sharp voice: "My day, I think I remember wrongly, Fuwa's family opened a farm to grow vegetables, where did they plant tea trees? If you want to say this tea tree, our family grows the most in the whole village, but your tea merchant said that my family's tea leaves are too small and too thin, and they don't even give me twenty-five yuan a catty, so it is really better to grow cabbage." Maybe you don't know, the cabbage grown by Fuwa's family is 100 yuan a catty. ”
The three tea merchants rolled their eyes, almost fainting. I waited in the light rain for a long time, but I waited for this news. They had long seen that there was something wrong with the second stunned man's head, and he spoke strangely, but he didn't expect it to be a big fuss.
It's just that the bespectacled tea merchant frowned, his eyes full of doubt, as if he felt that something was wrong. Li Qingyun thought that tea was cheap, so he said that he didn't grow tea? And this stunned man just swore that this tea was grown by Li Qingyun's family, and he also said that he had helped his family pick tea, and he had also seen their family roast tea with his own eyes, and he was even present when he sold tea.
Faced with the Rashomon on-site mystery, the bespectacled tea merchant suddenly smiled and said, "Mr. Li, don't be in a hurry to deny it yet. I admit that our previous purchase price was not high, but the tea in the entire Qinglong Town is at that price, and it is not the price that our family presses. At that time, the price we charged was thirty-one catties, if we knew that the quality of your tea was good, we could raise it to fifty-one catties, sixty-one catties. ”
The two tea merchants next to him hurriedly said: "Boss Gu, this price is too high, we don't make money, and we have to put money inside." Besides, the scale of his tea cultivation is not large, and for us tea merchants, there is no economic value, and it cannot be promoted, and no matter how good the tea is, it cannot be sold at a high price, and it will only be smashed in the hands in the end. ”
Li Qingyun smiled and watched them perform, one with a red face and the other with a black face, this is a common trick used by businessmen. These tea merchants are accustomed to the exploitation of local tea farmers, but in fact, the quality of local wild tea is not bad, it belongs to the middle and upper quality, and the taste is not weaker than some famous teas. But what is the price of those famous teas, after frying, tea merchants go to buy, one catty or two hundred belongs to the regular price, and there are even higher price codes of tea.
"Fuwa said that there is no tea at home, you outsiders are not annoying. Hurry up, if you don't go, I'll let the dog bite people. Gold coins, copper coins, hurry up and get to work, these black-hearted businessmen steal other people's peach blossoms, bite them to death. The two stunned people stammered and reprimanded the tea merchants from other places, and helped Li Qingyun let the dog drive people away.
The gold and copper coins slept lazily under the gate and watched the rain, and when they heard someone shouting their names, they shook their heads, got up and looked at the door. Seeing that Li Qingyun didn't call, he lay down slowly, and he was too full to move at noon.
Li Qingyun smiled, there were guests at home who hadn't finished yet, and he didn't want to waste time here, so he waved his hand and said: "Okay, don't waste your time, don't you have to make it clear before you stop? You are tea merchants, you know the quality of tea better, and you also know the true value of those teas. Glasses, especially you, should understand where these teas are precious. ”
The man with glasses was slightly stunned, stared at Li Qingyun carefully for a few seconds, and then suddenly, he clenched his fists, performed a courtesy on the rivers and lakes, turned around and left.
The other two tea merchants were stunned, not understanding what was happening, and shouted in confusion behind them: "Boss Gu, hey, why are you really leaving? Let's take it and drink it ourselves......"
Li Qingyun looked at the back of the tea merchant wearing glasses, shook his head slightly, obviously a spiritual cultivator, knowing that this tea contained a faint aura, and he actually had the face to offer such a low price. If Lao Tzu sells it to you again, he will really be stupid.
There are actually a lot of things in this world that contain aura. Traditional Chinese medicine and tea are both special materials, and in the blessed land where some major sects are located, some aura can still be gathered. Traditional Chinese medicine and tea can absorb aura by itself, so it is in the heart of the cultivator. Occasionally, I come across Chinese medicine and tea leaves that contain aura. It's not too unusual, it's just more expensive.
Vegetables grown in the same mountain contain far less aura than tea. If the amount of ginseng grown is 100 points, then the same weight of tea contains only 10 points. The same weight of vegetables contains only about 0.1 points of aura. Even lower.
This aura content value is just an analogy. The real thing is very different and won't be so accurate. Like the enlightenment tea owned by Li Qingyun, the aura contained is no worse than that of ordinary people. So. At that time, the Lingxu Dao Master planted Enlightenment Dao tea on ordinary mountain peaks, and the tea trees could also absorb the extremely thin spiritual energy in the mountain range, which not only tasted beautiful, but also benefited cultivators.
sent away three inexplicable tea merchants, but the two were stunned and didn't leave, and followed Li Qingyun into the villa.
"Fuwa, my father said, after my family finished picking tea, there is no work in the field for the time being, so let me work in your wild boar farm. I can't do any other fine work, but I can still do this work by feeding the pigs and cleaning the pigsty, right? You can just give a little salary, and I can't afford to ask for a wife anyway, so I can save some money every month for the elderly. The second stunned man said sadly, but without a sad tone, as if he was narrating a fact that everyone knew.
The second stunned son has a tea field at home, but the father and son are too lazy to take care of the tea field, and now it is more appropriate to call them tea forests. If you don't fertilize when you should fertilize and don't prune when you should prune, then it would be strange if the tea field could have a good harvest.
Li Qingyun had tasted their tea, and it tasted similar to the ordinary wild tea in the mountains. Now he doesn't have time to do tea business, if the local tea is promoted, even the wild tea in the mountains can be sold at a good price, at that time, the tea field at the second stunned family is a hen that can lay golden eggs, not only can get a wife, but also have to choose a beautiful one.
"After this rain, don't you still have to pick tea, your father alone can't finish picking it from exhaustion. Li Qingyun felt that the wild boar farm was still a little dangerous, and he was afraid that the slow temperament of the second stunned man would cause an accident inside.
"My father said, the tea in the back is worthless, and I can't sell it for a few dollars, so I might as well work on a pig farm. My father has already inquired clearly, the salary you gave Li Shishi is 3,000 yuan a month, I don't want to ask for so much, just give me 1,000 yuan a month. The second stunned chased to the house, and when he saw a room full of people eating, he was not afraid, pulled a chair, and sat next to Li Qingyun.
Li Qingyun asked Li Xiaochu to add a pair of chopsticks to him, and let the two stunned people also sit down to eat and drink. Others dislike the second stunned, but Li Qingyun has no mind in this regard, the two of them are contemporaries who grew up in the same era, and the second stunned has a bit of a problem with his head, but he knows that he has never done anything to pit Li Qingyun, and he has many actions to defend him.
"It's not very safe in wild boar farms, and even though they are a bred breed, they are still wild, and if you are not careful, you will provoke their ferocity. I'll talk to your dad later, and if he's really relieved, I'll let you try. What is the salary of ordinary workers, I will give you whatever salary, but don't compare with Uncle Shi, he is a safety consultant in it, in addition to the salary of 3,000 yuan, there is also a lot of bonuses every month. Li Qingyun thought about it, but after all, he couldn't bear to refuse, and after agreeing, he persuaded the two stunned people to eat vegetables.
Although the second stunned man had eaten at home, he had never smelled such fragrant dishes, and he was not very polite, so he sat down and ate with his head bored. The most bizarre thing is that he drinks very much, eats a bite of meat, drinks a glass of wine, and says that the meat and wine are delicious, and finally thinks the wine glass is too small, so he pours it directly into the bowl and drinks, and after drinking three or four bowls, there is no.
Li Qingyun's eyes lit up, and he finally found another advantage of the second stunned man, it is a good thing to be able to drink, in the future, when he entertains guests on the farm, when he is not there, he can let the second stunned man play, with his three or four bowls of wine that does not change color, he can definitely calm the scene.
"It's a shame to waste! How thick should this Li Qingyun's net worth be, Lingcha Xiancha is sold as garbage, and Lingjiu and fine wine are invited to be drunk by fools in the same village at will?" Zheng Xinyan was so distressed that he cramped, he drank ordinarily, knowing that this was a good wine, and it contained some aura, but he was afraid that he would get drunk and make a mistake, so he kept holding back and didn't dare to drink much. At this time, when he saw a fool, Gollum poured the remaining small half of the jar into the bowl and drank it. (To be continued......)
