After living in the mountains for a long time, it has become a habit to climb the mountain and explore the secluded.

There is a mountain in Nanyi County, called Taipingding, which can be called "the best victory in the world". Because there are hundreds of wells on the mountain, also known as Baijing Mountain, there are historical relics and ancient legends, which is a natural and cultural landscape.

In late autumn, Nong Tianyi and Bai Longjie marched to Taipingding.

Walking around the mountain, the road becomes more rugged, the steeper the slope, and the more weathered the rocks. Suddenly, I saw the house in front of me faintly, and the clear light crossed the pine forest, and I was overjoyed. Past a mountain peak, the blue and secluded, the road turns less, and the house seems to be farther away.

It's really close to the mountains and far away from the mountains. In a few acres, the mountain peaks retreated, the field of vision gradually broadened, and the small courtyard of the farmhouse with stone walls and tiles was placed in front. So they went up to greet them, and with their master's consent, they fell crookedly in the courtyard of the farmhouse as if they had fallen apart. The hosts were hospitable and hospitable to both of them. At this time, while tasting the fragrant farmhouse meal, they listened to the master tell the ancient legends such as "Niangniang Pond", "General's Tomb" and "Taiping Temple" on Baijing Mountain, bringing them into that magical and dreamy fairyland.

At this time, the two of them came to the top of the mountain, the forest was luxuriant, the pine branches were shiny, not stained with a little dust, quite a primitive style. The sunlight always finds a gap in the lush foliage, and it leaks down like a spring. It was these lights and shadows that made Lin Mang even darker, and the scene became more shadowy.

Walking along the mountain path that has not been set foot by passers-by for a long time, walking in the forest where "no day is seen", only to hear the chirping of mountain birds like a flash of inspiration, and occasionally sound the green flute, echoing in the distant empty meng. Everywhere the mountain breeze passed, the dense leaves parted in a stream, revealing a sapphire-like sky, and the clouds seemed to be made of cotton wool, floating lightly across the sky.

Standing on the top of the thousand-meter peak, the clear spring water at the wellhead is bubbling from the bottom of the well, which is really incredible. The legendary "Niangniang Dresser" is like yesterday, and the three tall welcome pines are still standing tall after countless spring and autumn periods, which seem to tell people the poignant love story of the general and the mother. The green vines on the edge of the cliff are falling, and the rare whitebark pine stands silently, as if it is the crane that wants to carry the mother away, and it is also like looking forward to it, and it is difficult to give up.

According to legend, in ancient times, there was a fairy fish in the Baishui River, and after thousands of years of cultivation, it became a beautiful fairy. The fairy pretended to be a village girl, went to Baijing Mountain to play, picked up a few tea seeds, and happened to meet a young man named Chen Hai who was picking flowers, and the two fell in love at first sight.

The fish fairy took out the tea seeds, gave them to Chen Hai, and made a private lifelong contract, and agreed that when the tea seeds germinated in the next year, the fish fairy came to marry Chen Hai. After the fish fairy left, Chen Hai planted the tea seeds on the top of Baijing Mountain.

In the spring of the second year, the tea seeds germinated, the fish fairy appeared, and after the two became married, they loved each other, worked together, and cultivated tea seedlings.

The fish fairy untied the white shawl on his shoulders and threw it into the air, and suddenly the white mist filled the mountain, enveloping the top of Baijing Mountain, moistening the tea seedlings, and the tea trees grew more and more vigorously. The fish fairy gave birth to a son and a daughter, picking tea and making tea every year, and her life is also happy.

But the good times didn't last long, and the fish fairy stole away from the crystal palace and married a mortal privately, which was discovered by the river god.

The river god ordered, as a last resort, the fish fairy immediately returned to the palace. The destiny is difficult to disobey, and in desperation, the fish fairy has to leave in pain.

Before leaving, he instructed his children to help their father cultivate the camellia tree, and leave the white yarn that can turn clouds and mist, so that it will forever cover Baijing Mountain and moisten the tea tree.

Chen Hai grew tea all his life, lived to eighty, and finally died because he missed the fish fairy, and finally threw himself into an ancient well on the mountain.

Later generations called Chen Hai "Cloud Zen Master" because of his meritorious work in planting tea. Baijing Mountain Yunwu Tea has been passed down from generation to generation.

Nong Tianyi said that the Taipingding Nine Plants Tea is said to have been planted by Chen Hai himself, and it is known as "fairy tea".

Bai Longjie said with a smile, so it became a special tea for the emperor's sacrifice and drinking.

Lingering on the top of the mountain, pure and secluded, the fresh air makes people intoxicated. Tactfully in the ancient relics, can not help but make Nongtian think of the ancients: in ancient times, the tribe generally had the saying of "occupying the mountain as the king", and the mountain and water must have both in order to survive for a long time. Baijingshan has exactly these two elements. It is located in the middle of Jingshan Mountain, and the water is at the foot of the mountain, which can be described as a unique geographical location. It should be said that this is a rare strategic location. Perhaps the ancestors of the Chu people once cultivated the land here, "the road is blue, and the mountains and forests are enlightened". These give people infinite room for reverie.

After getting away from the hustle and bustle, they were amazed, and nature endowed them with more scenery, magic and unsolved mysteries, as well as a kind of awe and emotion.

Day by day, even if they have all kinds of attachments, they have to fall into the mortal dust. Humanity is "straight to the point". Nong Tianyi never opened any doors, but he carried the benevolent heart of a mountain. Looking back, Baijing was speechless, the peaks were endless, and they were reluctant. The green mountains are just like warm spring, sitting in their chests, and they are not far away.

The next evening, the family sat down together and drank tea.

Nonglu said that bone china was born for black tea.

With the prosperity of black tea, black tea tea sets have also formed a unique culture. Due to the influence of the British royal family, Britain improved from the technology of Chinese porcelain to create "bone china", which became the best tea set for tasting black tea.

Also adapted to local conditions is Yixing in China, where purple clay pots were originally used to brew and drink Yixing black tea.

In Germany and Italy, where there are many different flavors of black tea and the high level of glass craftsmanship in both countries, people are more enthusiastic about drinking black tea with glass tea sets.

They have some apprehension.

This was followed by the rise of black tea in England. In 1662, the Spanish princess Catherine married into the British royal family, the princess married a lot of black tea and sugar that were very precious at that time, she had to add a lot of sugar to the black tea every day to drink, under the influence of Catherine, this way of drinking tea began to be popular among the nobility, so far black tea prevailed.

So, because of black tea, it caused a war.

Later, the British were dissatisfied with the Dutch East India Company's monopoly on all the black tea trade, so they launched the war against the Netherlands. In the end, Britain won the war. Since then, Britain has seized the right to trade Dutch black tea in Asia, and started the black tea trade based in Fujian and Xiamen, China.

In 1689, Chinese black tea was shipped directly to England, Nong Tianyi said. At that time, as soon as the black tea was unloaded from the ship, there was a clamor of selling in the streets of London, and often the black tea hidden in the house showed the identity and status of the owner.

Why do many aristocratic families have housewives who cook tea? There are two reasons: one is to show the host's hospitality, and the other is to prevent some guests from "taking the sheep by the hand", which shows the importance of black tea.

Then came the Boston Tea Party.

In the second half of the 18th century, black tea came to the United States across the ocean, Nong continued, and was deeply loved. At that time, Britain, which was under colonial rule over the United States, coveted the huge new black tea consumer market in the United States, and specially formulated a law that levied a high black tea trade tax, the "Stamp Duty Act", which was implemented in 1765. As soon as this bill was enacted, it was boycotted by the American people, and a boycott of British goods was launched in the United States.

In the end, Britain was pressured to scrap the bill, but it still retained a high tea tax. This move in the United Kingdom has further intensified the anti-high tax campaign in the United States.

Finally, in 1773, the Boston Tea Party broke out. Some young Americans attacked a British merchant ship anchored in Boston Harbor and dumped 342 boxes of black tea piled up on the merchant ship into the sea. Beginning with the Boston Tea Party, various ports in the United States followed suit, and similar events occurred, which eventually led to the outbreak of the American Revolutionary War.

Wu Qing also said that she had seen an old story about Assam black tea.

The year 1823 was a new page in the history of black tea. British explorer Robert the ▪ Bruce discovered wild tea trees in the Assam region of India. This is today's Assam black tea, which is a new variety that is completely different from Chinese black tea. In 1839, the new Assam black tea was born.

Then in 1845, the British discovered that the Assam black tea leaves were larger and more suitable for mass production than the Chinese black tea of the time. So they crossed Assam black tea with Chinese black tea and planted the new variety artificially in the British colonies of India and Sri Lanka at the time. Since then, the tea culture in Britain has spread widely.

At present, the tea market is becoming more and more difficult to do, coupled with the turbulent situation, the family is worried!
