Chapter Forty-Four: The Silver Needle

Su Boan took the small card and left, and Zhang Deyong's uncle and nephew were left in the room. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Zhang Zhihai looked happy, but Zhang Deyong frowned.

With a "snap", Zhang Deyong slapped Zhang Zhihai in the face, which instantly stunned him.

Zhang Zhihai covered his cheeks with his hands and looked at his second uncle innocently.

"Little bunny, your wings are stiff! I didn't know anything beforehand, but I shook it out coldly, leaving me unprepared. Now, we're on the back foot. ”

"If we can think of countermeasures in advance and then inform Su Dong, then we will benefit more. But now, we don't have much time. ”

Zhang Deyong pointed at Zhang Zhihai with his finger, which was a scolding. It was a good thing, but it was actually broken by this kid.

"Second uncle, I know it's wrong. I shouldn't have been greedy just now, but I should have told you privately before we discussed. Now, what should we do? Zhang Zhihai also regretted the momentary hot-headedness just now.

As his second uncle said, they can find out the source of the tea and other conditions first, and then make follow-up actions. Although his second uncle is now managing the huge Imperial Tea House, after all, it is surnamed Su, and no matter how well it does, it will not be his share.

However, now that things have developed to this side, they are helpless, so they can only follow Su Dong's wishes and go on step by step.

So, after they agreed, they went their separate ways to find out the news.

……

Regarding Zhang Deyong's small actions on their side, Su Zhongkang didn't know anything about them.

On the contrary, he's a little confused right now.

In the past few days, the frequency of the system has become less and less, and since he drew the lottery that day, the system has been completely silent. However, it will still truthfully deduct the profit part as repayment after the teahouse closes.

Su Zhongkang originally thought that the system would inadvertently give him a frightening task, and he was mentally prepared.

Unexpectedly, the system reappeared after being silent for many days, and also issued a task to Su Zhongkang. It's just that the mission it released is too simple in his eyes.

【Tea Making Task】Please ask the host to successfully make ten catties of Baihao Silver Needle Tea within three days.

【Task Reward】According to the grade of the tea made, you will get the corresponding reward.

At first glance, this task will seem quite difficult. With Su Zhongkang's current skill of making two catties of dried tea in a day, it is impossible to make ten catties in three days. Unless he can do without opening a store during the day, then it is possible to complete the task.

But can he be willful and not in business? Obviously, the decision on this is not in Su Zhongkang's hands.

When he first saw the task, Su Zhongkang was also startled, but after he learned more, he actually felt flattered.

It turned out that this Baihao Yinzhen tea was very different from the Huangshan Maofeng and Oriental Beauty Tea he had roasted before. It is the white tea among the six major tea categories.

White tea refers to a kind of tea that is not finished or rolled after picking, but only processed after drying or simmering.

That is to say, in the production process of this Baihao silver needle tea, it is not fried or kneaded, but only divided into two processes: withering and baking, of which the main thing is withering and drying, so that the tea buds change naturally and slowly.

In this way, let alone ten catties of tea made in three days, even thirty catties and fifty catties, he can also complete the task.

In order to prevent the system from cheating, Su Zhongkang once again confirmed the production process of Baihao Silver Needle, and only then did he plan to start construction until he was familiar with it.

Just when Su Zhong Kangzhi was complacent, the system taught him another lesson.

Looking at the fresh tea leaves like a small hill in front of him, Su Zhongkang wanted to cry again without tears.

He should have known that the tasks of the system are all seemingly simple, but in fact, they should not be taken lightly at all.

The pile of new shoots with one bud and two leaves in front of me only picks the bud heart, commonly known as pulling the needle, that is, pinch off the buds on one bud and two leaves, and extract the raw materials for silver needles.

I'm going to have to work until what time! Su Zhongkang looked at this large pile of tea leaves, and his heart couldn't calm down for a long time.

He calculated that one pound of Baihao silver needle tea had at least 30,000 buds, so he had to pinch it 300,000 times with his hands for ten catties.

Anyway, he didn't want to rest tonight, Su Zhongkang was a little helpless.

After a long night, Su Zhongkang survived like this. He plucked off the buds and put them in a bamboo sieve, and the other leaves were also put into another bamboo sieve.

Although Baihao Yinzhen tea is mainly the bud heart, the remaining stems and leaves can still be made into other tea bags or tea embryos of flower tea.

Moreover, from this point of view, if these stems and leaves are thrown away, Su Zhongkang estimates that he may be unlucky.

Nothing was said all night.

When Su Zhongkang looked at the bamboo sieves stacked here and there in the tea room, his two huge panda eyes were almost unable to open.

He is now halfway done, just put the buds in a ventilated place, dry them until the moisture content is between 20% and 30%, then move them to the hot sun to dry, and finally roast them for a short time.

The fragrance of tea in the room makes people feel like they are in the tea garden, and the smell makes people feel refreshed and their tongues are full of relish. Su Zhongkang, who was originally drowsy, couldn't help but tremble.

However, he still walked out of the tea room, and originally wanted to go upstairs to catch up on sleep. However, before he went upstairs, he still took out a lock and locked the tea room, which was reassuring.

This night, Su Zhongkang slept dimly, and he didn't know when.

Moreover, he also had an extremely rare dream.

In his dreams, his teahouse is no longer quaint, but as majestic as a palace.

He is no longer a tea master who sits at the tea table to make tea and entertain guests, but has been promoted to a big boss.

Under him, there are more than a dozen tea masters, and those people are not only good at their skills, but also extremely respectful to him.

They are trying to please this big boss every day, especially one of the little girls, who treats others very arrogantly, but in front of him, she is as well-behaved as a little white rabbit.

Every time the big boss says a word to this little girl, she gets a little bigger.

In order to let the little girl grow up quickly, the big boss told her a lot of things every day, and she listened patiently.

Until one day, this little girl finally grew into a beautiful woman with an excellent temperament, with long legs and a good figure. However, she suddenly ignored the big boss.

The big boss was very sad, he wanted to let go, however, he couldn't control himself anymore, he still had to talk to her every day.

After another period of time, the girl grew bigger and bigger, and suddenly she was on a par with the palace, and the big boss could only raise his head whenever he talked to her.

Finally, one day, no matter how much the big boss looked up, he couldn't see this girl. He was sad, but there was nothing he could do but watch her go.
