Chapter 36 Planting Tea Trees

Qin Meng was very happy in his heart, although he was forced by Qin Hao to recognize a stepfather, but this father-in-law's skills are really good, much better than the food he made, and he was happy to eat it with a chicken in his hand, and he didn't take the matter of recognizing his father-in-law as a thing at all.

"Congratulations to Dalang for adopting an adopted son!" Xiaozhu said funny.

Zhen Qian's face is almost turned into a bun now, what kind of thing is this! The twenty-year-old father-in-law and the fourteen-year-old adopted son laughed to death when they said it.

"Uncle Wang, what do you think of this?"

Wang Qun smiled: "Why can't you accept it?" ”

Of course I can't accept it, I haven't been a father in my two lives, in my previous life, I was because my work was too slow, and I wanted to get married when I made enough money, anyway, it is not a new thing for men to get married in their thirties and forties in the future, but I never expected that I would be a father in the Tang Dynasty for only two months.

Wang Qun laughed, "Don't take this matter as a big deal, many people have adopted sons, anyway, Qin Hao also said just now, this adopted son is your personal guard, you can just treat it as a little guard of your own, usually give more pointers, stay by your side when you grow up, or come back here It doesn't matter!" ”

Listening to Wang Qun's explanation, Zhen Qian's heart relaxed slightly, this is really different from recognizing his godson in later generations, he thought about it too much.

Zhen Qian sighed, I'm afraid things can only be like this, anyway, it's not a big deal to have one more mouth around to eat.

Just as he was talking to Wang Qun about Qin Meng, he saw Qin Hao walking towards this side, walked in front of the two and beckoned behind him, a strong man held a big wooden stake and put it in front of the two, Qin Hao pointed to the wooden stake and said: "Zhen Lang accepted Qin Meng as an adopted son, this is the monkey wine that the Qin family found in the mountains, there are not many of them to show a little respect, and please Zhen Lang don't shirk!" ”

"Monkey wine!" Zhen Qian seemed to have heard it somewhere, and he couldn't remember it for a while, so he said flatly: "Thank you Uncle Qin for your kindness, you deserve it!" But he didn't think so in his heart, and suddenly saw Wang Qun's expression on the side change slightly, and his eyes at the wooden stake also became hot, and he couldn't help but be curious.

Qin Hao saw that Zhen Qian's face was as usual when he heard the monkey wine, and he was also surprised in his heart, he was worthy of being a wealthy family in Hengzhou, so calm and calm as an ordinary person.

After Qin Hao said a few words of greetings and left, Zhen Qian looked at Wang Qun and said, "What does this monkey wine say!" ”

Wang Qun knew that after Zhen Qian's amnesia, he forgot many things, so he explained: "This monkey wine is the best in the wine, but it can not be found, there is no price in the market, and many people may not be able to see it in their lifetime, I didn't expect Qin Hao to give you some monkey wine today, it can be seen that Qin Hao values you very much, and this is also his sincerity to take this opportunity to express cooperation!" ”

"You said that the monkey wine is made of this stake?"

Although you can't judge people by their appearance, the monkey wine in this stake looks too plain, and it is not advisable to buy a pearl or return the pearls, at least you have to decorate a little faΓ§ade.

Seeing that Zhen Qian couldn't understand, Wang Qun said again: "This monkey wine is not easy to find, and it is even more difficult to use, if it is stored in other containers, it will affect the original taste, not to mention, it will become sour after a long time, so it is necessary to use the same wood that found the monkey wine, and it is best to directly use its own wood to make it into a container for storage, so as to keep the flavor unchanged!" ”

I didn't expect that there was so much attention to monkey wine, and I couldn't help but sigh at the whimsy of the ancients with good intentions, this monkey wine is really a rare treasure.

The Qin family rarely has such a lively scene, the sky is dotted with bright stars, a bright moon is in the sky, the silver-white light is sprinkled in the valley, the blazing fire will scorch people warmly, the cool bursts of the valley blow make people drowsy, the insects and frogs gradually dissipate with the lively crowd, and the mountain village is calm again.

Zhen Qian fell asleep very late this night, and countless bizarre scenery flashed in front of him, one moment it was a prosperous picture scroll of brocade clothes, and another moment it was the killing scene of the Iron Horse Binghe, interspersed with familiar faces, just closed his eyes and appeared in his mind, lingering and unforgettable.

As soon as I closed my eyes and opened my eyes, it was already the next morning, and the misty green smoke rose from the houses, shrouded in the gentle breeze of the valley, and the beauty was like a painting scroll that could not be splashed with a paintbrush.

Qin Hao rushed to the front of the bamboo house early in the morning, and when he saw that Zhen Qian had already eaten breakfast, he smiled and pulled himself to look for a place to raise free-range golden chickens.

"Zhen Lang, did you sleep well yesterday?"

"Yesterday's fruit wine was really strong, and I didn't feel it at first, and when I returned to the house, I was a little dizzy, and I didn't dare to be greedy next time!" It is said that wine is a poison that pierces the intestines, but fortunately there is no gaffe after drinking, otherwise it would be ugly.

"Some monkey wine was also added to the wine I drank yesterday, but unfortunately the people in the clan are unfamiliar with wine-making skills, and this taste is lacking, if Zhen Lang can make a wine similar to monkey wine, he will inevitably make money every day!"

After hearing Wang Qun talk about monkey wine yesterday, he had a plan in his heart, but he didn't want to reveal his plan in front of Qin Hao.

Early in the morning, Qin Hao asked the hunters in the village to go into the mountains to look for golden chickens, there are many types of wild chickens, but the feathers of golden chickens are the most gorgeous and the most valuable, and today it will be blood mold.

However, today, in addition to helping Qin Hao find a place where he can raise free-range golden chickens, he also has to find a secluded place around to open a winery, Zhen Qian wants to see if he can find any natural caves to store the wine, so as to push up the price of wine.

Xiaozhu and Xiaomei wanted to follow, but unfortunately their foot injuries were not healed, so they could only stay in the hut, and there was a newly adopted son by their side, as for Ju Niang and Wang Tiezhu, they didn't see anyone in the morning, and they heard that they followed the hunters who went into the mountains to hunt, and they had a headache when they thought of Ju Niang, who was still crazy in her twenties.

Just climbed a mountain, Zhen Qian was already tired and out of breath, only to feel that his body was no longer his own, and he was more out of breath than he was in, the most open was like a fish thrown on the beach, his legs and stomach began to ache faintly, and his back heels were a little like pinprick pain, this body is really going to exercise.

Sitting on the top of the mountain, raising his eyes to look around, looking at the direction he came, the bamboo houses under the mountain have become pigeon cages, the mountains in front of him are surrounded, layered on top of each other, the peaks in the distance go straight to the sky, the mist of the mountain stream slowly rises in the sun, and the green is looming in it, and the scenery of the valley can not be seen clearly.

"Wait a little longer and the fog will dissipate!"

Qin Hao stood aside, and the old man who was almost sixty years old followed him up the mountain, his spirit was much stronger than that of Zhen Qian, who was tired like a pug on the side, and he was also excited to explain the surrounding terrain to himself.

"It's true that the mountains and rivers here are beautiful, but unfortunately there is no flat land, and you can't grow some food!"

Zhen Qian took the water bag handed over by Qin Meng, poured a few mouthfuls and said: "You can grow grain on flat land, and you can also grow grain on slopes, but there is not much sloping land here, even if you plant food, you can't solve the problem of food and clothing, but you can find another way?" ”

"What good idea does Zhen Lang have, now that we are a family, if we have something to say, just say it?"

I actually fell into the trap of this old fox, and after accepting Qin Meng, I really became a family, and now Qin Meng should be called Zhen Meng, but I can't change my mouth for a while. Now I don't have much thought about respecting the old and loving the young for Qin Hao: "Uncle Qin, although this kind of grain is good, the annual harvest of other cash crops is several times higher than that of growing grain, and it is very suitable for the mountainous and humid climate here, do you want to give it a try?" ”

Qin Hao thought of many ways in his early years, but this place can only be described as a poor mountain and bad water, but in Zhen Qian's mouth, it has become a treasure land of feng shui.

"Is there still a choice for the Qin family's current situation?"

"This is also true", Zhen Qian touched his chin without a long beard, and did not continue to tease Qin Hao's thoughts, looked at his old face that was more sincere than gold, and said happily: "Uncle Qin, I don't know if you have ever heard of tea?" ”

"Tea?" Qin Hao raised his eyebrows slightly, and the expression on his face became richer, "Zhen Lang, you're talking about tea trees!" ”

Since Qin Hao had already guessed his thoughts, Zhen Qian continued: "I'm talking about tea trees, why does Uncle Qin also have tea trees here?" ”

"Don't hide it from Zhen Lang, the Qin family really has a few tea trees, but what does this have to do with the cash crops you said?"

Zhen Qian patted his thigh, his face became hot, he didn't let people ask about tea trees, but unfortunately Wang Qun said that there were no tea trees around Hengzhou, and they would only have them in Jiangnan, so he let himself break the idea of tea, but he didn't expect to be met by himself here.

"Uncle Qin, wait a minute, you can take me to see those tea trees, can you tell me how the Qin family's tea trees came to be?"

Qin Hao's face stiffened a little, and he didn't know what he was thinking, so he drifted his gaze for a while and said: "The Qin family does have a few tea trees, the trees are almost a hundred years old, and they were brought in by their ancestors when they fled into the mountains, what does Zhen Lang want to do, why don't you tell me directly?" ”

Zhen Qian felt Qin Hao's words flickering, his heart moved, he heard Wang Qun say that when the Qin family fled into the mountains, there were thousands of people, and after a hundred years of reproduction, the number will definitely not be small, and the Qin family has to buy 100 stone grain from the outside world every month, which is obviously not a ration prepared for hundreds of people, I am afraid that the tea tree is related to the secret of the Qin family.

"Since Uncle Qin is inconvenient, I will say it bluntly, I want the Qin family to reclaim some sloping land on the hillside, and plant more tea trees by transplanting branches, and wait for the tea trees to grow after a year, which is the beginning of the Qin family's poverty alleviation, these will not make the Qin family embarrassed!"

Qin Hao's expression changed slightly, and his lips moved: "This tea tree can help the Qin family get rid of poverty and live a life without food and clothing?" ”

The popular way of drinking tea in the Tang Dynasty was different from that of later generations, mainly based on tea soup, and it was a habit among the wealthy and wealthy families, and the people at the bottom did not have the habit of drinking tea, so the quantity and quality of tea could not be compared with later generations, Qin Hao really couldn't think that tea trees could help the Qin family get rid of poverty.
