"I'm afraid it's not a matter of fighting now. [Ran^Text^Library] [][For more exciting novels, please visit]" Steward Liu's face gradually became difficult to look at.

Shen Wuyan took the document handed over by Steward Liu, and it was even stamped with the official seal of the imperial court, which looked like a document issued by the imperial court, and he couldn't help but hesitate a little.

It turned out that Liu Fulai also brought a document issued by the imperial court, which probably meant that after Duanyang, the tea merchants in Jiangsu and Zhejiang would be integrated, including the tea houses, and some small-scale tea houses and tea merchants were afraid that they would be forcibly annexed by the imperial court.

"In fact, it is not as ruthless as the document says, the imperial court has always strongly supported the economic development of Jiangnan, and in recent years, the DPRK has suffered a serious deficit, so it is natural to collect it from Jiangnan, sericulture is obviously the most profitable, so ......"

Shen Wuyan paused, and said with a wry smile: "It's nothing more than that I think that the teahouse doesn't make money and occupies space, and now we have to eliminate all these factors that drag down Suzhou's economy and replace them with embroidery or sericulture." ”

Steward Liu nodded solemnly: "I don't understand some of the young master's words, but I think about these things, if you can compete for cooperation with Deyue Lou now, then the teahouse will open bigger and bigger, and the future will definitely be limitless." If you can't cooperate, you can only leave Suzhou. …… In fact, it doesn't hurt to leave Suzhou, you can go to Nanjing or Beijing. ”

While saying this, Gu Lao Gu Yuanqing also walked into the teahouse from the outside.

Gu Lao is already old, and he walks tremblingly, if it weren't for Da Mao's support, I'm afraid it would be difficult to get so far from Da Ru Lane, his eyes were still bright, he looked straight at Shen Wuyan, and laughed: "Little friend, the old man is here again." ”

Although Gu Lao is cautious on weekdays, he is also quite funny after getting acquainted with Shen Wuyan, although he is old, there is still no barrier, or Gu Lao is an extremely interesting person.

"What kind of tea ceremony school you said a few days ago, the old man didn't understand it at first, he was fooled by you kid, and then he went back and thought about it, in fact, that's the same thing...... It is similar to the Jingshan tea banquet in the Song Dynasty. ”

Smiling like this, Shen Wuyan invited Gu Lao to sit down, and said with a smile: "Actually, it's just hearsay, come and play with Gu Lao, which Cheng wants Gu Lao to see at a glance." ”

The so-called Thousand Schools of Thought is a school of Japanese tea ceremony, which was learned from the Jingshan Tea Banquet of the Great Song Dynasty, and has become the current Thousand Schools of Thought after some changes.

Gu Lao smiled, then patted Da Mao and said, "Da Mao, this kid has learned a lot from you, and often asks questions that I can't even answer, which really embarrass my old man." ”

After a slight pause, Gu Lao continued: "One day this kid asked me if we were watching a group of people watching the play when we lived in this world since we were children. …… On another occasion he told me that we are now treading on this land so round, otherwise why would the sails of the sea gradually disappear from sight? ”

Gu Lao said, Da Mao was also well-behaved, just stood aside and bowed his head and said nothing.

Speaking of this, it is really strange that Shen Wuyan felt that talking about the Four Books and the Five Classics on weekdays was a bit boring, so he told them some famous movies in his previous life, if Truman's world is used in the past and in the present, and this result was achieved.

Laughing casually, after finishing these gossips, Gu Lao became serious: "I have also seen the official documents of the imperial court, what should you do here?" Deyue Tower is undoubtedly the best attachment. ”

Shen Wuyan didn't expect that Gu Lao would also be involved in this matter, and hurriedly asked: "With Gu Lao's temperament, I'm afraid that he won't be attached to Deyue Tower, what do you plan." ”

Although Gu Yuanqing is also more cheerful on weekdays, his temperament is also arrogant, if he is said to let him rely on someone to get some benefits, he will definitely be unwilling, even if he is a guest in Deyue Tower with his reputation.

Gu Lao smiled faintly: "I don't have words to say my temperament, why don't you have your temperament?" There are a few people who Shaoqing can talk to, and there are a few people who are attached to the powerful, even if they are on the side of the chief of the text, they are all for serving the country, not for their own selfishness at all. ”

In fact, for Shen Wuyan, he didn't have so many worries, and he didn't have any concept of clinging to the powerful, just to be able to open the teahouse and let these people have a place to live.

The so-called Ande Mansion is a bit exaggerated, but it is what I think in my heart.

"I don't have so many worries, but now the teahouse really doesn't have any advantages, and it's really worrying compared to Jixianju. …… By the way, how about the cultivation method of the new tea that Gu Lao brought before? ”

The new tea has long been in Shen Wuyan's expectation, milk tea is only a temporary start after all, and it is really not possible to beat milk tea to the whole country, at least in this era, this is a political and cultural problem.

Now the reputation of Xingbake has improved in Suzhou, and it can vaguely get close to the strength of Jixianju, and the invitation to the Duanyang Tea Party in Deyue Tower is the reason.

However, it is too difficult to go further.

So Shen Wuyan was pondering new tea, which was undoubtedly a not simple problem, after all, the cultivation and fermentation of tea trees and the exquisiteness of brewing were a very complicated process, and Shen Wuyan's understanding of tea was not enough.

Due to this factor, Shen Wuyan wrote some ideas for the new tea to Gu Lao when Da Mao went to study at Gu Lao's side.

"It's a bit eyebrow-raising, and it's not easy to find the black tea that I said without words at the time, but rest assured that everything is complete now, and I can give an answer before Duanyang."

Steward Liu on the side didn't speak, and suddenly said at this time: "Actually, Gu Lao can go to the teahouse to be a guest." ”

This is something that Shen Wuyan has always wanted to mention, but he has always been worried that it will make the old man feel uncomfortable, and this time it was mentioned by Steward Liu, which relieved his worries.

Gu Lao sighed deeply and said with a smile: "Actually, I came here today for this matter, if I don't need to say anything, I will leave this old bone in this teahouse." ”

Gu Yuanqing's addition has to be said to give Shen Wuyan a chance to win, for the sake of today, he actually has to wait for the new tea, if he can succeed over there, he will also have the certainty of a fight.

At the same time, Jixian Ju is not calm.

Wang Zhenming also got the news after Shen Wuyan left in the afternoon, and a look of worry appeared on his face at this time: "...... You said that Gu Lao went to the Xingbake Teahouse? That's not what worries me. ”

Gu Qingshan, who was sitting opposite Wang Zhenming, put down the teacup and sighed slightly: "What Zhenming means ...... The Zhou family on the Dongting side also intends to fight for this? ”

Wang Zhenming nodded: "The Zhou family has occupied almost the entire Biluochun business over the years, and later the West Lake Longjing, the belief in Maojian, and the clouds and mist of Lushan are all competing for the top quality, which is not at the same level as me." ”

"What does Brother Zhenming mean?"

Wang Zhenming snorted coldly: "The meaning of the Zhou family is not clear, but it is certain that there will be a fight, but it is estimated that the interest is not great, and Deyuelou also knows which one has more benefits." ”

Gu Qingshan doesn't have much talent for business, but he knows the stakes very well, the power of the Zhou family is not comparable to Jixianju or Xingbake, and this kind of century-old family heritage is not something that other teahouses can look up to.

"I talked to Shen Gongzi once before, and those previous speculations can be thrown away, he is an idiot who only knows how to read, there is no need to doubt this."

Gu Qingshan was stunned, Wang Zhenming would never evaluate a person so simply, there must be a reason for saying this at this time.

"Chatting that day, he didn't even know some basic common sense of tea, and what kind of milk tea he thought about before he came, what people like him understood were nothing more than some theories in books, and the essence was not very useful."

This is the criticism of most readers, and Gu Qingshan doesn't sound good at this time, but after thinking about it, it is indeed the case, and he can't help but feel relieved: "That is to say, the awakening of the eight guests is actually still relying on Gu Lao?" ”

"So to speak." Wang Zhenming chewed a snack and looked out the window, and suddenly thought of another thing: "On the day of Duanyang, the poetry meeting on the first floor, and the tea party on the second floor, when the time comes, wait for Brother Qingshan's masterpiece." ”

Gu Qingshan was slightly stunned: "So the third floor is free?" I'm afraid that I have other plans, and Brother Zhenming has no news? ”

At the mention of this, Wang Zhenming was also stunned, and only said after a while: "I'm afraid it's something in the officialdom, it's better for me to wait for someone else, you make your poems, and I show my tea." ”

"By the way, do you remember the "Stone Story" Aoyama mentioned earlier?" Wang Zhenming said: "It is said that the "Stone Record" has recently begun to be printed in the bookstore, and it is said that many literati have ordered books in advance. ”

"Order in advance?" Gu Qingshan drank the tea in his mouth and almost spurted out, and he exclaimed: "It's been many years since this happened, but I don't know who the author of this book is." “

Wang Zhenming smiled lightly: "If this person can participate in the Duanyang Poetry Conference, I am afraid it will also be a bright spot." ”

Gu Qingshan hurriedly shook his head and said: "I'm afraid there are more than one highlights, according to what I knew before, this person is now quite popular among literati, and many words and sentences in the text are widely circulated." ”

"Brother Qingshan is also paying attention?" Wang Zhenming laughed.

……

The days of Duanyang are approaching day by day, but Shen Wuyan is still practicing and running in the morning.

As soon as he ran to the edge of the bridge on this day, Shen Wuyan saw a girl in white standing on the bridge, the woman had long hair and a shawl, her body trembled slightly, and the next moment she jumped into the Shiquan River.

It was still early in the morning, and there was no one around.

Shen Wuyan hurriedly ran over and jumped into the river to save people, so entangled in the water and weeds, he finally fished the girl out of the water.

Suzhou in the early morning, in fact, is still quite cold, especially at this time jumping into the river, it is even more unique in the heart.

Looking at the girl's water-soaked hair covering her face, she looked like a female ghost, but she couldn't wake up for a long time, so she hurriedly rescued people by artificial respiration.

"Smack."

Just as Shen Wuyan stretched over to prepare for artificial respiration, the girl woke up, and then a slap was slapped on Shen Wuyan's face.

"Hooligans."
