Chapter 60. Dominating (1)

Tea has always been called "fairy water", and it is said that drinking tea can prolong life. Of course, it mainly depends on what kind of tea is drunk.

Generally speaking, good tea is mainly new tea, and you can smell the natural fragrance of tea, such as "Longjing before the rain", which is the best tea, and you can smell the faint fragrance from a long distance, just like a woman in front of you.

Lin Yi hadn't had much contact with tea before, and he didn't have the ability and economic strength to drink any good tea, but when he was working as a waiter, he occasionally helped customers flush the hotel's free hairtips, which cost only thirty or forty yuan a catty, but since he absorbed the essence of the ancient book "The Book of Tea", his understanding of tea is not the same.

Coupled with his sensitive sense of smell beyond ordinary people, as soon as he came into contact with this rich and simple aroma, he couldn't help but blurt out, "Could this be the legendary antique Pu'er tea?" ”

"Tea King" Ma Dongcheng was stunned for a moment, "Brother Lin has good eyesight!" Before I could announce it, you could have guessed it - yes, this is a 100-year-old antique Pu'er tea! ”

As soon as I heard that it was really antique-level Pu'er tea, those who didn't understand tea couldn't help but be amazed.

Pu'er tea belongs to black tea, which is named because the origin area used to belong to Pu'er Mansion in Yunnan District. Pu'er tea is an "ingestible antique", unlike other teas that are expensive in the new, Pu'er tea is expensive in "Chen" and tends to appreciate gradually over time.

Qing, Zhao Xuemin's "Compendium of Materia Medica" cloud: "Pu'er tea paste, black as lacquer, decanting first, green is better; Eliminate food and phlegm, clear the stomach and rejuvenate the body. Puyu tea, steamed into a group, Xifan City, the most regardless of the substance. Pu'er tea has a bitter taste, relieves greasy cattle and sheep poison, bitterness, expels phlegm and lowers qi, and facilitates intestinal laxatives. In his sixth volume "Weibu", he said: "Pu'er tea paste can cure all diseases." If the stomach is swollen and cold, use ginger soup to diffuse, and sweating can be cured. ”

Therefore, Pu'er tea is known as the "ancestor of tea" and enjoys a high reputation. Pu'er tea is different from ordinary tea, because the older it is, the longer it is, the more it will have a rich and simple aroma, which is called "agarwood". This aroma is the single most important factor that distinguishes pu-erh from other teas.

Lin Yi can say that this tea can contains Pu'er tea, which is Meng'er in the eyes of many people, after all, the "tea king" Ma Dongcheng used to play high-priced Pu'er, and when Pu'er was fried, he Ma Dongcheng was a famous "tea king", and he had the most precious Pu'er tea at home. However, packaging this kind of old Pu'er casually and taking it out to offer treasure made Zhu Fatzi and Liu Manjiang laugh shamefully.

Zhu Fatzi said: "Old Ma, I said before that you were so good that you made a lot of money in black tea marketing, what's the matter, it didn't take much effort to get down, and you didn't even have a baby, so you just took your old goods to make up the numbers?" ”

Liu Manjiang also said: "Yes, Pu'er tea used to be famous, but now it has been overhyped, and your old horse still takes it out to offer treasures, don't you panic?" ”

Ma Dongcheng spat fiercely, "You know a fart!" Then he pinched out a piece of tea with his fingers like a baby, and said: "This baby is not ordinary Pu'er tea, Pu'er tea is also divided into good and bad, good and bad, and my can is the best 'wonderful Pu'er tea'!" ”

Wonderful Pu'er tea?

I haven't heard of it.

Zhu Fatzi and others, you look at me, I look at you, it seems that I have never heard of this name, only Lin Yi, who was a bystander, suddenly thought of something, he had seen it in a book of reading notes of the famous Qing Dynasty writer Ji Xiaolan, the legend of the magical Pu'er tea has a kind of excellent tea, only the top magnates in ancient times can taste it, it seems to be called "Miaoxiang Pu'er", also known as "beauty tea", "widow tea".

Sure enough, Ma Dongcheng, the "King of Tea" here, said: "This 'Miaoxiang Pu'er' is also called 'Beauty Tea' and 'Widow's Tea', because the origin of these teas is extraordinary." You must know that Pu'er tea is a famous tea in central Yunnan, and many tea gardens have planted it, but Pu'er has good and bad, among which the best Pu'er tea trees produce only a handful of Pu'er, because the yield is small, it is precious. Often when it comes to the season of tea picking, the ancient tea plantation owner will select a girl from the house who has not yet left the pavilion and is still a virgin, this girl can not be more than eighteen years old, absolutely beautiful and beautiful, especially to have a sense of aura, so that he can contact the king of tea trees, and pick the Pu'er tea leaves on it with Qianqian jade hands. ”

Of course, this is not over, after the Pu'er tea is picked, she is not in a hurry to steam and knead, but after screening, let this girl take these tea leaves and rub them on her delicate and fragrant chest day and night, and accompany the tea leaves to sleep. Like a wife to her husband, she is meticulous and thoughtful...... It is not until the accumulation of time that these tea leaves absorb the unique body fragrance of the girl and become baby tea, which is considered to have completed the first step. Then according to the secret method of stir-frying Pu'er tea, those Pu'er teas are secretly roasted...... As for the girl, she can't get married from then on, but unlike those 'self-combing girls' in the south, who never marry, are celibate, and are called pure girls after death, these tea girls are equivalent to marrying this kind of Pu'er tea and guarding it for the rest of their lives......"

"Someone asked, how do you live with this kind of Pu'er tea? You don't know this, it is said that this kind of divine tea can not only prolong life, but also beautify and nourish the skin, these girls get these baby tea, it is equivalent to getting fairy energy, they are not ordinary people, how do fairies live with mortals? And these baby teas can attract immortals because of their strong fairy spirit, and those immortals will be with this beautiful tea girl at night, turning clouds and rain, happy and happy, but they don't seem lonely......" Ma Dongcheng said this, licking his lips with some envy, and he didn't know whether he was envious of those tea girls who could know the gods with great powers, or those who could be envious of those who could casually go to those beautiful tea girls.

As an audience, Lin Yi clearly knows what bullshit fairies, many tea girls have become the private confinement of the tea plantation owner at that time, not to mention marrying tea, and suffering from the master's humiliation day and night; If there are really immortals, those bullshit immortals are those sanctimonious, well-dressed tea owners - for a little Pu'er tea, they have ruined the life of a girl, in order to obtain huge profits, eat people without spitting out bones, for pleasure, make up stories, and bully people's girls.

At this moment, after the "Tea King" Ma Dongcheng introduced the treasure he was going to auction, he said proudly: "Of course, this kind of superb antique tea is boasting here by myself, you may not believe it, and think that I am boasting and singing a one-man show, so come to the truth, I will find someone to cook a few cups for everyone to taste, to see if this tea is good or bad." ”

Saying that, Ma Dongcheng slapped his face, and then saw a person walking in from outside, Ma Dongcheng said: "This is the tea ceremony master I hired with a lot of money, he has a unique skill in making tea, and everyone can be regarded as a blessing." ”

Tea ceremony master?

There is a braised noodle master when eating braised noodles, and there is a tea master when drinking tea, and today's play is quite exciting. Lin Yi thought in his heart, so he looked at the tea ceremony master curiously, don't look at it, look at it, rely on it, acquaintance.

That's right, isn't the man in front of him the tea master in the Longfeng Tea House who was replaced by himself and can only act as a humanoid display board? Especially his slightly shiny little bald head is unforgettable, and you can recognize him at a glance.

Last time, the thirty-year-old tea master wore a red and green coat embroidered with large camellias, like a stage play, and this time he wore a pale cyan Taoist robe, with big sleeves like clouds and fluttering plackets.

In any case, this robe is much more elegant than the big camellia, coupled with the classical temperament that the bald head tea master has finally accumulated, the whole person has a bit of a "fairy wind bones" taste.

When Lin Yi recognized the tea master, the tea master also recognized Lin Yi-

Wide-eyed,

Nima, it's you again?!

No way, who made him impressed by Lin Yi, that time in Longfeng Teahouse, he was completely impressed by Lin Yi's amazing tea skills; What's more, there are not many people here, and Lin Yi is the youngest, crowded in a large group of old men, definitely like fireflies in the night, so bright and outstanding.
