Chapter 113: The Third Grade
On a high platform in Fuping County, there is a row of tables and chairs, and in front of each chair is a white porcelain teacup. On the left and right sides of the table and chair hung a couplet: There is no immortal medicine of Emperor Wei in the world; There are indeed seven bowls of tea in the world.
The surroundings of the high platform were crowded with people watching the excitement, and they were not noisy, but they just stared at the high platform expectantly, eager to know who the winner of this tea fight was.
The form of the tea is simple, but it is very grand.
This time, the people who came to taste the tea to judge are all highly respected, and the so-called high morality actually refers to the older generation of people in large families. Because of his age, he is highly qualified; Because there is a lot of money, it is highly valued!
Xie Ping and Qiao Dingsu were in the list, and Feng Ye, the head of the Feng family, didn't show up for some reason.
This year's tea competition is different from previous years, because there is a noble uncle in the judgment of the tea competition, which makes the people feel more honored.
Except for Xie Ping, everyone else in the judgment was very restrained, they were not ordinary people, and they knew that the uncle sitting on the edge was not as harmless as he seemed on the surface.
Because he is not only an uncle, but also a well-known Jinyi guard, and now the young son of the Feng family is waiting in prison to be beheaded.
Cao Wei has the highest official position and should sit in the middle of the seat, but he added to the last seat on the grounds of his age. A polite and humble uncle made everyone praise, not to mention that the uncle was so young and handsome, and the eyes of the girls and ladies present were full of brilliance.
“…… One bowl of throat kiss moist, two bowls of broken loneliness. Three bowls of dry intestines, only 5,000 volumes of words. Four bowls of light sweat, life injustice, all to the pores. Five bowls of muscles and bones, six bowls of fairies. Seven bowls can't be eaten, but the two armpits are used to the breeze.
Tea is used, the taste is cold, and it is the most suitable person to drink thrifty. If you are hot and thirsty, depressed, have a headache, have astringent eyes, lack of limbs, and feel uncomfortable, talk about four or five sips, and compete with Daigo and nectar.
Today's tea fight was held in my Fuping, which is really my luck in Fuping, which should be recorded in the county chronicles and left for future generations to see! ”
According to the practice of tea fighting in previous years, a person with both ability and political integrity recited the tea speech in front of the people to announce the official start of the tea fight. Xie Ping, as the county commander of the county, was born as a jinshi, so he naturally took the lead. His voice was high-pitched and loud, which shook the spirits of the people.
"Open tea!"
The salute chanted, and several small people holding teapots came out, walked to the table, and respectfully poured a cup of tea in each teacup, and then the owner of the tea would ascend to the high platform to introduce his family's tea to the judges, and the first tea owner to ascend the high platform was the first Dai Qinghe to give a gift to Cao Wei.
Dai Qinghe secretly exchanged a look with Cao Wei, and then arched his hand towards everyone, and said: "The planting of tea trees, the picking, stir-frying, drying, and brewing of tea will affect the taste of tea.
The so-called high mountain clouds make good tea! Most of the tea trees of my Dai family are on the high mountains, and the tea farmers are sent to water and remove insects every day, and the tea is like a treasure!
Tea picking is also a science, and the quality of fresh leaves picked at noon on a sunny day is the best, and the freshness of the tea leaves should be moderate.
Next, it has to go through more than a dozen skills such as sunning, shaking, finishing, and rolling, and the process is extremely cumbersome. Therefore, the tea brewed with the tea produced by my Dai family is fragrant, delicious and fragrant, and it is fragrant and fragrant when you drink it.
Judges, please taste the tea leaves of my Dai family, and I am sure that you will feel an indescribable ease and comfort in your limbs. ”
Cao Wei picked up the teacup and smelled a burst of fragrance, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart, and after drinking it, he really felt the aroma and pleasantness, and immediately gave a thumbs up, and said: "The tea leaves of Master Dai's house are fragrant, and the teeth and cheeks are fragrant when you drink it, it is really a good tea, and the official is really blessed today."
Seeing Cao Wei's evaluation, the other judges also immediately praised it, Dai Qinghe raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Uncle is really an elegant person, the villain will prepare two bags of tea for Uncle later, and please don't shirk Uncle Don't Excuse Yourself."
"Master Dai is so polite, you have good intentions, but the official can't take the people's things for nothing, otherwise the official's conscience will be condemned and tormented day and night.
In this way, the official took out two silver taels to buy two bags of tea from Master Dai, if Master Dai didn't accept it, the official would not take those two bags of tea if he said anything! ”
Dai Qinghe said with tears in his eyes: "Uncle is really honest and honest, and it is really a blessing for the people!"
Suddenly, one of the people in the audience shouted hello, and then the other people cheered too. The judges on the stage scolded "hypocrisy" in their hearts, but they praised each other, Xie Ping glanced at his son-in-law, and muttered softly: "Be weird!"
After Dai Qinghe stepped down, the second tea master took the stage, no surprise, this person Cao Wei also knew......
The tea fight was carried out for more than an hour, Cao Wei bought dozens of bags of tea, and the people also shouted dozens of hello, just when the judges wanted to make a decision and elect the champion, Cao Wei suddenly stood up, walked to the front of the stage and arched his hand to the people: "Ladies and gentlemen of Fuping County, this official traveled to your county, and it happened to be a great honor."
You have also seen that the official bought a lot of tea, and it is better for one person to drink alone than for everyone to drink together, so the official wants to invite everyone to taste the fragrant tea of this long family. Just take it as some of the officials' thoughts, and please don't be surprised by the villagers. ”
"Uncle is benevolent!"
A black-faced man among the people raised his fist and shouted, and the rest of the people were also moved inexplicably, and shouted from the bottom of their hearts: "Uncle is benevolent!"
The people stood in the audience for more than an hour, and their mouths were already dry, and when they drank the fragrant tea, they cast grateful eyes to Cao Wei. The judges present were full of admiration for Cao Wei's means of buying people's hearts and increasing his prestige.
"Folks, fathers and elders, listen to this official again!" Cao Wei waved his hand to signal the people to calm down, and said, "Do you think these teas are very clear and mellow?"
The black-faced man in the audience shouted: "Uncle is right, these are the best teas!"
"In this case, one champion is naturally not enough to praise all the good teas, so this official proposes to set up the top three tea shops in Weinan to justify all the good teas participating in the event today!"
Over the years, there has only been one champion in the tea ring, and what top three have come out today, the judges have never heard of it, and they can't help but look at each other, they want to question but don't have the courage, Xie Ping is not in a hurry, he wants to see what tricks Cao Wei plays.
The black-faced man in the audience said, "Uncle, what is the top three?"
Cao Wei said with a smile: "The imperial court takes the top three to take the scholars, today we will take the tea with the top three, take the first class tea three families, the second class tea seven families, and the rest are all the top three tea leaves, this official proposes that the Feng family and the Dai family are in the first class, I don't know what you think?"
Dai Qingfu Lingzhi was heartbroken, and arched his hand: "Uncle wants my Weinan Tea Store to work together and not fight for fame and fortune, it is really well-intentioned, my Dai family is willing to listen to the uncle's proposal, and from now on I will not respect the lord, only the top three!"
There are the Feng family and the Dai family, and the rest of the tea merchants thought that the master was hopeless, but who knew that he could still get a name now, so they echoed it.
Feng Lin's expression was gloomy, how could the position of the first rank be compared to the name of the champion? However, the general trend has been achieved, and he has no choice but to look at Cao Wei deeply, and then leaves in a hurry......
