Chapter 310: Don't Do or Die

Just 20 grams of tea can be sold for 30 or 40 million won?

While translating Cai Pingping's words, Wakazakura converted the units of RMB into Korean won by the way. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

It is very logical that the three of them and Jin Yanping immediately looked at Cai Pingping with eyes such as "You are definitely bluffing me" and "You must be joking", and then turned their heads to look at Ruoying with expressions of "Ruoying Oni, you probably haven't learned your arithmetic well" and "Did you make a mistake".

"I remember hearing a similar saying that the price of the mother tree Da Hong Pao should be correct, mainly because this tea is so rare. Seeing this, Liu Kewei hurriedly stood up to testify for Cai Pingping and Ruoying in the same trench.

After receiving his endorsement, the four guests nodded suspiciously.

"We also have a big red robe in our tea house, but I have to state that this is not a genuine product from the mother tree, but a product of the application of grafting technology. As for the difference in taste, since I haven't drunk the mother tree Da Hong Pao, I'm sorry I can't tell you a definite answer. So, are you sure you want to try the big red robe of our tea house today?"

Taeyeon and Kim Yeonpyeong exchanged a few glances, then nodded with a cautious expression.

To tell the truth, if Cai Pingping really wanted to take out the so-called "20 grams worth 30 or 40 million won" of tea, they would not dare to drink it.

South Korea's per capita income and price index are higher than the overall level of the Celestial Empire, but as far as the entertainment industry is concerned, the income of Korean artists is far inferior to that of the Celestial Empire.

For example, the South Korean government has a special rule that the salary of the leading actor in a TV series shall not exceed 15 million won per episode - this is still a treatment that only top artists can receive.

As for Yuna, who is the only one who has starred in a TV series when she was young, her salary is far less than this amount, and even in the foreseeable future, it will be about 10 million won per episode.

The equivalent of RMB is only more than 50,000 yuan, of which the economic company has to take a part, and the share ratio of TV dramas is four or six for the company's artists, so Yun'er can only earn 30,000 yuan at most every time she shoots a TV series.

Note that the TV series mentioned here is not a daily drama, but a so-called "mini-series" with more than ten or twenty episodes of regular history. The salary of daily dramas is definitely several notches lower than that of miniseries.

As for the remuneration of popular artists in the Celestial Empire, it is often more than 500,000 yuan per episode, or a package price of 30 million for dozens of episodes.

Therefore, Korean artists are desperately trying to develop in overseas markets. In addition, it is not surprising that they have all kinds of scheming performances on variety shows.

Of course, as a top K-pop idol, he is certainly not poor now, and his net worth is basically to the point where he can buy a car and a house, but the bulk of these incomes mainly come from advertising and overseas activities.

Cai Pingping bowed, then went out, and soon came back with a round flat barrel tin can, and then began to show her tea skills.

The so-called tea art is actually about smooth and elegant movements, a bit of a dance. Cai Pingping is obviously an expert in this field, and as soon as she did a few actions in the opening scene, she immediately stunned everyone except Duan Shanshan.

Duan Shanshan had seen Cai Pingping's tea art twice, once in Jianzhan Craft Shop, and once when he and Saiwen went to Shencheng Jiuxing Market to sell tea, they accidentally entered the tea house opened by Cai's family. After two experiences, it was naturally impossible to be as shocked as the others I saw for the first time, but I still experienced a kind and pleasant feeling again.

Originally, Cai Pingping was a very eye-catching beauty, with a slender and well-proportioned figure, except for her heroic features and a little lack of charm, she almost couldn't find anything wrong with her appearance. It's just that for Duan Shanshan, who has been in close contact with her, when this girl's eldest lady has a temper attack, it is inevitable that people will be discouraged, at least for Duan Shanshan, she can run as far as she wants.

However, Cai Pingping when making tea and Cai Pingping when she lost her temper are not the same person at all!

To paraphrase the Japanese cartoon "Hikaratsu no Ki", it is not an exaggeration to say that "when she makes tea, her body seems to be radiating light".

How nice it would be if this girl could keep this cheerful state all the time!

When they were young, the three of them had seen Song Qian make tea for them a while ago, and at that time they thought that Song Qian's skills were quite skilled, but if they made a comparison with the one in front of them, the gap was immediately reflected.

Almost every movement, from the posture of the whole body to the shape of each finger, there is a poetic charm everywhere. Even when you hold the pot in both hands, each of the ten fingers bends at a slightly different angle, and the whole set of movements is so smooth and skillful that while you are still savoring the image of the previous second, at least there is a lot of something worth savoring quietly slipping away from your eyes......

As members of an idol girl group that focuses on dance music, although these three are not the lead dancers, after all, the body instinct and sensitivity to body movements accumulated by many years of trainees and careers are there, and they can't help but try to imitate a few movements.

After reacting, they looked at each other a few times and smiled a little awkwardly.

As for the action of pouring the first dish of hot water into the teapot, Cai Pingping and Song Qian did it quite differently. The latter just gently poured the spout of the electric kettle close to the spout of the teapot, while the former held the kettle in a high position, poured water into the teapot from a distance, and also held the kettle in both hands, and lifted it up and down several times smartly.

In the terminology of the tea art industry, there are two particularities here, which are called "hanging pot high chong" and "phoenix three nods".

The former is to use a high degree of potential energy to fully wash away the tea leaves piled up at the bottom of the pot, while the latter contains the respect of bowing to the tea guest three times.

When they were young, they naturally didn't understand these ways, but at least they could see that there was a clear difference from Song Qian's method of making tea.

As soon as the first hot water was poured into the teapot, Cai Pingping put down the kettle and picked up the teapot, and poured the tea liquid in the pot into a special large tea tray with drainage holes.

"It's called 'washing tea', right? Why do you wash good tea?"

Taeyeon still remembers the last time Song Qian made tea for them, Krystal emphasized that the first tea was going to be poured out, but she didn't say why, so she couldn't help but ask this question curiously.

"It is said that in the process of making tea, there is a process that needs to be stepped on barefoot, so the first water is considered to wash the tea leaves, so naturally you can't drink it. ”

When Cai Pingping looked at Ruoying suspiciously, waiting for her to translate this sentence, Duan Shanshan, who had not learned a lesson, once again stood up to brush his sense of existence, and answered directly in Korean with a straight heart.

"Really?"

"No......"

When they were young, they were a little worried, and they covered their mouths and exclaimed.

"What did that uncle say?" Cai Pingping saw that Duan Shanshan didn't know what to say, and as a result, several female idols reacted quite loudly one by one, and even had a little unnatural expression, so she couldn't help but ask Ruoying curiously, and raised her chin in the direction of Duan Shanshan as a gesture.

Ruoying smiled and said, Uncle Duan said that the tea leaves are stepped on with their feet, so the first water can't be drunk.

It is conceivable that Cai Pingping immediately became like a cat who was stepped on by the tail - fried, because of the presence of foreign guests who met for the first time, it was inconvenient for her to show too excited emotions, so she gritted her teeth and reprimanded Duan Shanshan in a low voice: "Hey, that uncle who is still alive in the last century, the tea-making method you said has been basically eliminated a long time ago, okay! Now only a few varieties such as Pu'er still retain the process of stepping on the foot, like the step on tea in our tea factory, it has long been changed to machinery to complete it!"

"Uh, yes? I heard from my cousin, who used to work in a tea factory......" Duan Shanshan argued sneeringly.

"Don't talk nonsense if you don't know, the tea leaves in my tea factory have not gone through the process of stepping on them at all. Besides, even if there is, you can't say it directly! What if you scare the customers away and the business that could have been done goes down the drain?"

After all, it is the "second generation of tea" who grew up in a tea family, and Cai Pingping still knows a lot about the tea business, and immediately complained in a tone of hatred that iron is not steel.

While the two of them were muttering, Ruoying planned to continue to do new simultaneous translations, Cai Pingping hurriedly left Duan Shanshan, turned to her and said, "If you tell a few guests like this, just say that these northern Fujian teas that our tea house focuses on have not gone through the process of stepping on them. The purpose of washing tea is to wash away the dust contaminated by the drying of tea leaves, and by the way, to get rid of the fire brought by the roasting tea. ”

After listening to Wakasakura's relay, Jin Yanping waved his hand disapprovingly: "Actually, even if there is a process to step on, there are similar steps in our traditional Korean process of making kimchi, as long as the process meets the hygiene standards, I don't see anyone who doesn't eat kimchi because of this." ”

"Yes, yes, this gentleman is right. Not to mention the tea leaves of our Celestial Empire and their Korean kimchi, the traditional production process of French wine also has a process of stepping on it, uncle, don't tell me that you have lived for more than 30 years, and you have never even drunk wine!"

After listening to Ruoying once again translate Jin Yanping's words into Chinese, Cai Pingping turned around and continued to condemn the uninformed Duan Shanshan unforgivingly.

was robbed of Bai and counted by the articulate Cai Pingping, Duan Shanshan had no choice but to bow his head and stop talking.

This guy's sophistry skills have been seen in Xiuying's birthday party when she was young, especially for Tiffany, at least half of the blame for the bet that Jessica lost.

At this moment, seeing that Cai Pingping was able to train Duan Shanshan like a child, Taeyeon, Sunny, and Tiffany exchanged a few glances, and they were all quite surprised or amused.

For the beautiful tea master who could make Duan Planning speechless, they also had a little awe for no reason.

In this somewhat weird atmosphere, Cai Pingping continued to show her tea art.

P.S. originally wanted to write nozuonodie, but it was changed to the current one because it might be incomprehensible to readers who are used to traditional Chinese and don't know pinyin.
