Chapter 167: You're Not Kind
Zheng Keke couldn't help but laugh when he heard this: "Why are you so funny?"
Lu Yu smiled slightly, looked at the people in front of the queue and drew numbers, and said with a smile: "What I said is true! Zhang Yuan looks shrewd, but in fact, he is very real, no one has praised him like this before, and a few words must have been fooled!"
Zheng Keke nodded lightly and said lightly: "I have known Zhu Dengke, and his character is very poor. β
Lu Yu raised his eyebrows: "Have you understood?"
Zheng Keke smiled: "Yes, I'll talk to you in detail when I have time." β
Lu Yu knew that Zheng Keke had many secrets, and he didn't ask more when he heard the words, and the two continued to chat.
About ten minutes passed.
Finally, it was Lu Yu's turn to shake the number.
Zheng Keke's number is "0068".
Lu Yu shook to "0815".
And Zhang Yuan's number came out last, which was "1089".
The numbers are all random, and a few people don't mind.
After a while, a card with a number written on it was handed out.
Only then did Lu Yu notice that the cards were divided into two types: large and small.
The large card is similar to a bank card and is made of a hard material.
The back of the small card has an adhesive backing, and it can be used as a sticker after tearing off a layer of film on the back.
Zheng Keke explained: "The small card is pasted on the outside of your tea lotus and teacup to prove the ownership of the participating tea. β
"The big card is proof of identity, and if you are selected, you will use the card to move on to the next step. β
Lu Yu nodded, and asked again, "Why did they only give us cards and didn't register our names and identities?" β
Zheng Keke said with a smile: "This is a provision made to prevent the leakage of the registered roster. β
"There was a leak of the register a long time ago. β
"At that time, almost all the judges knew to varying degrees which number corresponded to which would-be tea person. β
"In the end, the evaluation really broke out a cheating scandal, which had a very bad impact. β
Lu Yu suddenly realized!
Many of the would-be tea people who came to participate in the competition were disciples and juniors of famous tea people.
If the identity is known, it is inevitable that there will be an element of "human affection" in it.
In order to avoid this situation to the greatest extent, the names and numbers of the contestants are simply not entered in the evaluation.
No wonder Zhang Yuan said that this number is the only credential.
β¦β¦
After all the prospective tea people who participated in the evaluation have received their numbers, the first evaluation of "watching tea" is finally about to begin.
Only then did Lu Yu retract his gaze and sigh lightly in his heart.
In fact, he has been paying attention to observing and looking for Xiao Chen's shadow.
Xiao Chen really didn't come to participate in the assessment today, and really gave up the opportunity to become a tea man!
Although Lu Yu didn't have any good feelings for Xiao Chen.
But now it is also admitted that at least Xiao Chen is a real villain, and he is definitely not a hypocrite!
β¦β¦
More than 1,100 people from all over the country participated in the evaluation.
At this moment, the staff has handed over the tea lotus used to hold the tea leaves to everyone.
Lu Yu saw that Zhang Yuan was still chatting happily with Zhu Dengke.
So he put the sticker printed with the card on the tea lotus alone, and took out some Xinyang Maojian autumn tea and put it into the tea lotus.
Finally, follow the rest of the people, put the tea lotus on a conveyor belt that has been prepared and pass it to the place where the judges "watch the tea".
Next, it's time to see the results.
At this stage of "watching tea", the number of eliminated people is about sixty percent.
So the venue, where more than 1,000 people gathered, suddenly fell silent.
Everyone looked at the big screen with apprehension......
The big screen has been divided into dozens of small screens at the moment.
On each small screen, the image of dozens of tea lotuses appeared.
From time to time, someone will reach out and pick up a tea lotus, or put it down gently after a moment, or the tea lotus will simply disappear.
You can't see the judges in the camera, and you can't hear the judges discuss.
When the tea lotus was picked up and put down, the sound of a long breath could be clearly heard in the venue.
And when some tea lotus still did not return to the conveyor belt after a few minutes, there would be an unwilling lament in the venue.
Various sounds are intertwined, and the would-be tea people are like crabs tormented in a steamer.
Their fate is now completely in the hands of those judges!
Lu Yu was very calm.
On the big screen, he saw that his Xinyang hair tip was picked up twice, but he quickly put it back.
Xinyang Maojian is made by himself from picking to frying, and he is very confident.
But at this moment, he suddenly heard a sigh from behind him.
Listening to the voice, it seems to be Zhang Yuan? His tea has been eliminated?!
Lu Yu's heart moved, and he simply turned around to look.
The sigh was indeed made by Zhang Yuan.
But it doesn't seem to be because of the elimination......
Zhang Yuanzheng patted Zhu Dengke's shoulder and shook his head and sighed.
Looking at Zhu Dengke's lonely expression, it seems that he has been eliminated?
Zhang Yuan's words came immediately: "Brother, don't be too anxious. In case the judges think your tea is better, look at it for a while!"
"Don't be discouraged until the end! My tea was picked up and looked at for a long time just now, isn't this also put back?"
Zhu Dengke nodded and sighed, and then hugged Zhang Yuan gratefully.
"Thank you Brother Zhang Yuan for your comfort, now I want to go and be quiet by myself. β
Zhang Yuan smiled: "Okay! Go ahead! Don't think too much!"
After Zhu Dengke left, Zhang Yuan turned his head to see Lu Yu.
"Hehe, this brother is really good, it's just a pity that his tea ......"
Speaking of this, Zhang Yuan shook his head with a regretful face, the meaning is obvious, I'm afraid Zhu Dengke has been eliminated.
Lu Yu also smiled slightly: "Success or failure has its own fate, but I also think it's better for him not to become a tea man now." β
Zhang Yuan was stunned: "What do you mean?"
Lu Yu said: "Even if the character of a tea person does not need to be perfect, he must be open-minded, and I think Zhu Dengke is by no means the kind of open-minded person." β
These words were felt by Lu Yu, and he had already thought about them for a long time.
Compared with its original world, this world has a more complete tea person rating and evaluation system.
Tea people also have a higher status in this world.
But it is precisely because of this that the utilitarianism and worldliness of the tea people are also more serious!
It's like some of the ancient systems of the original world.
The original intention of Confucianism and Taoism is the unity of heaven and man, benevolence and love for the common people.
But once it was used in the selection of officials in the imperial examination, there were naturally more Confucian scholars, but the number of mediocre officials did not decrease.
Throughout the ages, how many of the officials who have read the poems and books of sages and sages, who are known as the Confucian University of the World, and who are full of benevolence, righteousness, courtesy, and wisdom, are the two sleeves of the country and the people?
For today's tea people, such as Zhou Anping, Chen Juncheng and the like abound.
Tea skills and tea varieties have become the road to fame for these so-called famous tea people, but they have long forgotten what the original meaning of tea is.
So for Zhu Dengke being eliminated, Lu Yu did not regret it at all.
But Zhang Yuan didn't seem to understand Lu Yu's thoughts.
He frowned and said, "Lu Yu, I think you are a little unkind. β
"Oh?" Lu Yu raised his eyebrows.
Zhang Yuandao: "I think Zhu Dengke is a very good person, but I didn't expect you to be so snobbish." β
Lu Yu was stunned and said, "I'm snobbish?"
Zhang Yuan nodded: "Just now, Zhu Dengke was still praising you with me, saying that he admired you very much, but I didn't expect that the people he had always admired looked down on him so much." β
