Chapter 230: Good Tea!
At such a time, of course, no one could have thought that Lu Yu would think about these things.
After Inoue took the tea lotus, he began to boil water to make tea.
Although the tradition of the tea ceremony of Dongying has not been broken, it is still brewed with boiling water, but the tea utensils used are all ceramic utensils with a distinct Dongying flavor.
Lu Yu's eyes swept over the table, the porcelain tea set was very ten, but it did not have the favorite "Tianmu Jianzhan" of the Dongying people.
Tianmu Jianzhan also originated from China, rising in the Song Dynasty, when tea fighting became a trend of literati tea customers especially liked the skill of "ordering tea", and Zhao Ji of Song Huizong was a master.
Just like the current state of the world, what the emperor or the upper class likes will naturally be imitated by everyone else.
And the exquisite Tianmu Jianzhan also flowed into Dongying along with the tea skills of the Song Dynasty, and was highly respected by Dongying tea people and tea customers in the original world!
Jianzhan has also disappeared?
Lu Yu narrowed his eyes, he had seen a lot of Jianzhan in the tea set mall.
Compared with the purple clay pot, the teacup of Tianmu Junior Tianmu Jianzhan is obviously cheaper, and Lu Yu also likes to use it.
It's just that Lu Yu doesn't like to order tea, and secondly, the growth of word-of-mouth value has slowed down, and he is a little reluctant to spend it, so he has never bought it.
Now seeing that even a local tyrant like Inoue Xiong doesn't have a tea set from Tianmu Jianzhan, he can't help but balance his heart suddenly.
What if you have money? Do you have Zisha? Brother still has Jianzhan? Do you have it? Hehe......
At this moment, Inoue Xiong suddenly raised his head, looked at Lu Yu who was sneering with his chin in some surprise, and asked, "Mr. Lu, is there any problem?"
He Ning also touched Lu Yu lightly and cast an inquiring look.
It turned out that Lu Yu's thinking was constantly divergent just now, and he laughed unconsciously!
Lu Yu was stunned, and immediately sat upright, and said with a smile: "Hehe, it's okay! It's okay! I just thought of something very interesting just now, and I couldn't hold back for a while." ”
He Ning shook his head lightly when he heard this, and smiled helplessly. She has been with Lu Yu for so long, of course she knows that Lu Yu usually can't see his ability at all, but once he is really serious, he really doesn't know what he can't do!
But Inoue Xiong didn't know about Lu Yu's situation, he frowned, and said with some displeasure: "Mr. Lu, please respect me and our Dongying's tea!"
Lu Yu nodded, and said with a hint of banter: "Mr. Inoue, don't worry, as a tea person, I will naturally respect any kind of tea, including Dongying tea." ”
"That's good!" Inoue Xiong didn't hear Lu Yu's voice, nodded when he heard the words, and began to brew Gyokuro tea seriously.
As a tea man, Inoue's level of tea brewing is naturally not bad.
When the water temperature dropped to about 40 to 50 degrees, he threw the Gyokuro tea into a crystal clear glass pot and began to brew immediately.
The reason why the water temperature is so low is that Gyokuro tea is cultivated with shading, only one season is harvested every year, and the leaves are very fresh and tender, and if the water temperature is slightly higher, all the flavors and ingredients in the tea will be squeezed out.
In that case, not only will there be no way to continue brewing, but it will also not be able to reflect the best taste of Gyokuro tea.
After the water soaked the tea leaves, Inoue stopped continuing to flush, slowly raised his head and took advantage of the time when the taste in the tea was precipitated, and said with a smile: "I heard that Chairman He's He Group took the lead in establishing the Fengtian Tea Enterprise Alliance, I don't know what Chairman He's advice to us Inoue Co., Ltd."
As soon as these words came out, it indicated that the business negotiations between the two sides had begun.
The so-called tea party is to take the meaning of "tea tasting party", and the business tea party is to negotiate business matters in the process of tea tasting.
He Ning smiled slightly when he heard this: "Mr. Inoue is polite, I can't talk about advice, but there are still some suggestions." ”
Inoue nodded: "I would like to hear about it." ”
He Ning said: "First of all, all of our tea companies in Fengtian believe that the supplementary agreements that your company has continuously added to the sales agency contract over the years are unreasonable, and hope that through friendly negotiation between our two sides, all these supplementary agreements will be cancelled......"
"Secondly, there is the matter of Bichun tea. After our evaluation, and the quality of Bichun tea shown in the video is not enough to support its high price, it is not worth the huge investment of our sales agency to promote it. I hope your company can give Bichun tea a more pertinent and practical positioning. ”
"Nani?" Inoue's eyes flashed when he heard this!
Although he had expected it, he didn't expect He Ning to say it so directly, this is not the attitude of Huaxia Tea Company towards Dongying Company at all!
Driven by huge interests, Dongying's company has always been welcomed by various agents in China because of its mastery of the production channels of famous green tea.
Sakurai Suke's deflated meal this time, and the establishment of the Fengtian Tea Enterprise Alliance, although they attracted enough attention from the Inoue family, they did not expect He Ning to make an opening statement with an unprecedented tough attitude!
Hmph!
Inoue snorted coldly in his heart, but he smiled quietly on his face, lowered his head and poured the gyokuro tea in the pot into the fair cup, and then divided the tea.
"The two of you can taste the gyokuro from Fukuoka Prefecture, and the Gyokuro tea from Kyoto Prefecture has a different flavor!"
Seeing that Inoue Xiong directly avoided He Ning's edge with tea, Lu Yu couldn't help but squint his eyes, it seems that this Inoue Xiong is not easy to deal with!
The teacup was already placed in front of him, and He Ning had to smile politely and take a sip of the teacup.
At the entrance of the tea soup, He Ning's eyes lit up slightly, and then he took a second sip. Then she drank all the tea soup in the cup directly on the third sip!
This is also the rule of drinking Gyokuro tea, if it is on the tea table, three sips to drink a dry cup of tea is a respect.
It's just that in addition to the rules, both Lu Yu and Inoue Xiong can see a trace of amazement in He Ning's expression.
It's okay if you taste other teas, but this kind of look is very rare for He Ning, who has long been accustomed to drinking high-quality Gyokuro tea!
Seeing this, Lu Yu couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly, and also picked up the teacup.
At the mouth of the first sip of tea, the bitter taste of freshness instantly fills the mouth, but only a moment later, this bitterness is covered by freshness...... To be exact, this is not covering, but transforming! The taste of tea is fused with a certain ingredient in the taste buds, and the bitterness is transformed into a lingering freshness!
Lu Yu narrowed his eyes slightly, and immediately took a second sip!
By the time of the second sip, the bitterness in the tea soup had almost dissipated, as if it was a chain reaction, and the fresh taste became stronger!
When he drank the tea soup in the cup in the third sip, Lu Yu only felt that the entire mouth was reverberating with an unforgettable feeling of freshness!
Different from the fragrance of Biluochun, it is also different from the mellow and long tip of Xinyang's hair, which is a slightly salty freshness and mellowness, as if it is ...... It makes you feel like you're in the middle of the ocean.
That's the freshness of the sea!
This cup of Gyokuro tea actually expresses the freshness of the sea to the fullest!
Even Lu Yu was very disdainful of the arrogance of the Dongying people, but he still nodded sincerely and praised: "Good tea!"
