Chapter 41 Distant Merchants Arrive

At the end of spring this year, Qian Shusheng's tea house opened in Baiheguan Town. Nonglu made a special trip to congratulate him.

One morning after January, Qian Shusheng led a foreign merchant to the Yunwu Mountain Tea Workshop. It came as a surprise.

Nonglu hurriedly stepped forward to greet him: "There are two of you, please take a seat!" ”

Qian Shusheng introduced: "This is Mr. Han Zhinan from Shanxi, he has been my friend for many years. ”

Wu Qing said politely: "Welcome, Mr. has worked hard all the way." ”

Han Zhinan and the husband and wife of Nonglu exchanged greetings, and then explained their intentions: This time I came to have a look and talk about the tea business.

"Please have a cup of tea!" Wu Qing handed over a cup of hot tea and said, "That's good, if Mr. has any requests, don't be polite, we will try our best to meet them." ”

Nong Lu continued: "You can look at the goods first, and the price is easy to say." ”

Qian Shusheng introduced: "Tianxin tea series products are high-class goods, with good sales and are quite popular with customers. ”

"I know a thing or two about this." It seems that Han Zhinan has understood the product.

Qian Shusheng said: "I remember that Lu Yu judged good tea in the "Book of Tea" There are two criteria: one is born in stone, and the other is born in the wild. He came to us when he was writing his book. ”

Wu Qing made a specific description of the growth environment of tea trees: the altitude is not high or low, surrounded by mountains, tea trees are mostly distributed at the foot of the mountain, the mountainside, there are orchids and mountain flowers in the canyon, there are evergreen centenarian Nan trees growing together, the climate is mild all year round, the rainfall is abundant, the red sandstone weathered soil, fertile and loose, and so on.

Indeed, Lu Yu said in the "Book of Tea", "The wild are up, and the gardeners are down." "Tea sheng" Yang Cliff Yin Forest on the top".

Tea trees grow in such an environment, which must be lush and fragrant, and the quality is unique. Tianxin tea not only meets the above two essential elements, but also has a small river gurgling, which gives the tea a natural charm.

"How do you pick tea and make tea?"

Han Zhinan began to ask, maybe a little confused, this is normal, after all, he doesn't know very much.

The farm is like a number of treasures: "Every year a few days before the Qingming Festival to the valley rain between the tea picking, the standard is a bud, one or two leaves, for its fresh leaves delicate, even, pure, without fish leaves, old leaves. After the process of finishing, frying two green, stuffy piles, picking and drying. Among them, the stuffy pile is an important process to form the unique quality of Tianxin hair tip, and promote its color and luster. ”

Han Zhinan drank tea and nodded yes.

Wu Qing further described: "The well-made tea has a long-lasting fragrance and a tender yellow and uniform bottom of the leaves; After brewing, the soup is green and yellow, and the taste is mellow and sweet. The beauty lies in the fact that the coolness is highly compatible with the scent of bluegrass. ”

After listening to the introduction, Han Zhinan seemed to still have unsolved knots, so he asked: "How do you ensure the tea quality, and how do you operate it?" ”

Wu Qing explained: "We are strict, meticulous and precise in picking fresh leaves and making dried tea. Fresh leaves are picked delicately, freshly, evenly and purely, picked in 15 days before and after Qingming, and the picking standard is one leaf and one heart. As mentioned earlier, there are five major links in the production process to ensure the quality of the product after refining. The tea made in this way has a yellow color, white and full, and the fragrance of bluegrass is long-lasting. ”

Hearing this, it is already "drunk before drinking". After this set of processes, it remains to brew.

Sure enough, Han Zhinan continued to grasp the question: "Then in terms of brewing, is there anything special about it?" ”

Wu Qing patiently replied: "As Mr. said, the beauty of Tianxin tea is that if the water does not boil, it will not sink, and its fragrance will not come out." It is best to brew spring water to get the real taste. When brewing, the first cup is poured out, and when the second and third cups are drunk, the aroma is soaked into the heart and spleen. In addition, if you use an authentic sand pot tea set to brew the hair tip, it will be more flavorful and have a long charm. ”

Qian Shusheng also came to the heart, and said a poem by Su Dongpo and quipped: "The snow milk has been turned over and fried, and the pine wind is still venting." ”

Han Zhinan relaxed at this time and laughed: "You are still talented." Then he added: "According to what you just said, I basically know that you are experts. ”

It turned out that Han Zhinan's previous inquiry was intended to test their proficiency in the tea industry, and now he was relieved, indicating that tea is guaranteed.

Seeing that the situation was good, Qian Shusheng said to Han Zhinan: "You are still satisfied." ”

"Satisfied." Han Zhinan's tone was affirmative.

He took a sip of tea, put down the teacup and said, "It is indeed a good tea, the fragrance is attractive, and it is very comfortable to drink." ”

It seems that today's business is almost over.

Qian Shusheng asked tentatively: "Do you want to order the goods first?" ”

"Absolutely." Han Zhinan replied simply.

Wu Qing was full of joy, and handed over another cup of Maojian: "Thank you Mr. for your care, we will ensure that the tea is of good quality, full of catty, and fair price." ”

Nonglu also said: "Please rest assured, sir, you are satisfied!" ”

Han Zhinan just listened, smiled, and didn't reply specifically.

"They're both very real businessmen." Qian Shusheng is also helping on the side, the beauty of adults.

In fact, Han Zhinan is also a real person. Before he came, he had prepared a large amount of silver tickets. It's just that the necessary investigation of the tea affair is needed, and this is also reasonable. In addition, he has a relationship with Qian Shusheng and was introduced, so this matter is more reliable. At this time, Han Zhinan felt that the situation about tea was almost the same, and he was quite efficient in doing things, so he said: "Let's go to the tea warehouse to see the goods." ”

"Okay, please!"

After speaking, Nong Lu led Han Zhinan to the tea warehouse in the backyard.

Entering the tea warehouse, Han Zhinan saw that the goods were full, and a fragrance of tea filled the warehouse, and his heart was more confident. Nonglu introduced the different varieties and characteristics of tea to Han Zhinan one by one, so that he could choose them. After seeing the goods, Han Zhinan had a smile on his face, and all the doubts just now disappeared.

The two returned to the tea room and sat down to drink tea. At this time, Han Zhinan was thinking about the details of tea varieties, prices, purchases, transportation, etc., looking preoccupied.

Qian Shusheng said: "Come, drink tea." "Deliberately digress the subject.

At this time, it was as if they were waiting for the dawn to appear. Everyone drank tea unhurriedly, and the aroma was permeating the room.

In fact, you can't be in a hurry at this time, for Han Zhinan, you also need a process of calm thinking, after all, the road is far away, it's not easy to make a trip, and you can't make any mistakes.

After a while, Han Zhinan got up and said goodbye: "I'll come back tomorrow." ”

But he didn't say anything about the stock.

"Okay, don't worry, please have a good rest." Wu Qing said.

Qian Shusheng and Han Zhinan left the tea house. The farmer and his wife dropped them off outside the store.

After returning to the store, Wu Qing said to Nonglu: "I guess it's about the same, you go to the tea warehouse to stock up first, so as not to be in a hurry." ”

Nonglu said, "Okay, I'll go now." ”
