Chapter 590: Brother-in-law, You Really Don't Mind?
In the palace of the king of Chu, Li Kuan basically didn't go out much this month.
Wu Meiniang has just given birth to a baby, although the small sweet potato does not need to be taken care of by Wu Meiniang herself, but the mood of the mother is the most special.
In later generations, many women are prone to depression after giving birth.
There's even a term for postpartum depression.
During pregnancy, pregnant women are cared for like giant pandas and enjoy extraordinary treatment.
But once the child comes, everyone's attention is often shifted to the child, and the care for the mother falls off a cliff.
In addition, after giving birth, the body is often prone to such and such problems, and under the superposition of multiple problems, depression occurs.
"Brother-in-law, you see, this is the latest black tea we have procured by Xinyu, and it is very popular with women. Can our palace also produce black tea? ”
Wu Guo personally poured Li Kuan a cup of brewed black tea, and said a little apprehensively.
Bread Xinyu suddenly introduced tea from other shops, Wu Guo didn't think much about it at first, but felt that this black tea and Bread Xinyu was the best match, and there was no need to think about anything at all, it must be chosen.
However, when black tea quickly appeared in all the shops of Bread Xinyu and was well received, Wu Guo reacted, which seemed to support an opponent for the tea-making workshop of the Chu Palace.
"Black tea? Someone actually made black tea? ”
Li Kuan had been talking to Wu Meiniang just now, and now when he saw the black tea brought by Wu Guo, he realized that there should be no black tea at this time.
Suddenly, nearly a thousand years in advance, black tea appeared in front of Li Kuan, and his first reaction was that there were other traversers in this world?
"Yes, brother-in-law. The black tea of our bread Xinyu is procured by the Lin family black tea shop. I also arranged for someone to find out that this Lin family black tea shop was opened by a tea merchant in Xishi and a tea farmer in Weinan County, and this black tea has only recently been released. ”
Tea farmers in Weinan County?
How do ordinary tea farmers know how to make black tea?
Why is this script so much like a certain traverser who uses black tea as a practice?
That's not right!
If there was a traverser, he would have seen that this world was different a long time ago.
Li Kuan's face kept changing.
This made both Wu Meiniang and Wu Guo a little worried.
Could it be that this matter of bread Xinyu really made Li Kuan mind?
It shouldn't be.
"Lord Wang, the taste of this black tea is indeed very good, and it is very different from the feeling of Longjing fragrant tea. But since someone can make black tea, I think the craftsmen in our tea workshop will be able to make it too. In terms of familiarity with tea, the entire Datang should not be able to find anyone more powerful than us. ”
Wu Meiniang took a sip of black tea, and after tasting it, she broke the slightly weird atmosphere of the scene.
"Yes, brother-in-law. If we have black tea in the palace, we must use our palace's own black tea. ”
Wu Guo is not stupid, and hurriedly came out to express his position at this time.
However, this time, the two sisters guessed Li Kuan's mind wrongly.
What kind of black tea he was worried about?
He was afraid that there would be other time-travelers in this world, and the situation would be completely different.
This is a situation he doesn't want.
"Brother-in-law, the Lin family who made black tea is just an ordinary farmer in Linjia Village, Weinan County, but in the early years, they planted a few acres of tea gardens by mistake, and then met my brother-in-law who invented the method of roasting tea, which made the price of tea around Chang'an City rise sharply, so their family slowly developed. Nine times out of ten, this black tea was just an accidental discovery by them. ”
After Wu Guo said this, it was obvious that Li Kuan seemed to be relieved.
It doesn't matter if it's a mistake or a surprise discovery.
As long as this person is an authentic Tang Dynastyman, it's fine.
"Xuanwu, you send someone to Linjia Village to have a look, I'm curious about how they make this black tea. Remember, we just need to understand what happened, and nothing else is needed. The tea workshop in the Chu Wangfu is dominant, in fact, it is not a good thing, a few more big tea merchants have emerged, and several more new teas have appeared, so as to make tea more popular. To some extent, this is also a good thing for our Chu Palace. ”
Li Kuansheng was afraid that Wang Xuanwu would misunderstand what he meant and make something "accidental" to Linjia Village, which would not be beautiful.
"Huh? Brother-in-law, what a ...... Do you really think so? ”
Wang Xuanwu didn't react, but Wu Guo on the side was stunned.
I was just worried about my feelings.
"What's really fake about this? I'm still frying! You don't think that your brother-in-law will blame you for using the tea leaves of the Lin family's black tea shop because of the bread Xinyu, right? If I really only have this measurement, how can the industry of the Chu Wangfu have today's scale? ”
Li Kuan glared at Wu Guo speechlessly.
However, the girl just stuck out her tongue and stopped answering.
"Lord, this tea-making workshop is now one of the most important industries in the Chu Palace, and there are countless tea farmers in Chang'an City, Hangzhou and other places who rely on our tea-making workshop. The rise of this black tea really won't have any adverse impact on us? ”
Although Wu Meiniang has just given birth to a baby not long ago, her figure has recovered quickly.
Probably this is the benefit of having a baby early.
For example, many people in later generations gave birth to babies in their thirties, and at this time, it was not only painful when they were born, but it was also very difficult to restore their body to their previous state after giving birth.
This is the effect of time, and it is not something that can be easily changed by human beings.
But like Cheng Jingwen and Wu Meiniang, giving birth to two or three children looks like they never gave birth.
"Mei Niang, salt and iron tea, these will be the three most basic industries of Datang. Today's status of tea is still too far behind the previous two. So I'm really not worried about how the appearance of black tea will affect our Longjing fragrant tea, and I don't even plan to suppress the Lin family black tea, but I am willing to support them, so that the Lin family black tea will become one of the representatives of Datang tea like Longjing fragrant tea. ”
After Li Kuan said this, Wu Meiniang couldn't help but smile.
This is the person I fancie.
This pattern, this heart, who in the world can compare?
"Lord Wang, are you so optimistic about the development of tea?"
Wu Meiniang already attaches great importance to the tea-making workshop in the palace, but now that she listens to Li Kuan's words, she finds that she may not pay enough attention to it.
If tea can really become the basic industry of Datang like salt and iron, then the development space of tea making is too great.
"Of course! The Hu people on the grassland used to not drink tea, but now? In addition to these Hu people, there are many countries in the West that do not drink tea now, but what about in the future? One day, tea will become an indispensable substance for all people's lives, and at that time, the status of tea will become as important as salt. ”
Li Kuan's categorical assertion made Wu Meiniang no longer doubt in her heart.
