Chapter 68: Seize the Day

The tea fighting conference in the drunken Weng Pavilion in Langya Mountain ended with Lu Fan's victory, and the Ye family's eight consecutive tea heads finally changed hands in this session.

However, after this conference, while people remembered the young tea leader Lu Fan, Ye Yu, who had never shown up, became the focus of people's talk since then.

In the eyes of everyone, the Ye family's tea ceremony inheritance has not declined, but has swept in another form.

After the clear-eyed people experienced this tea fighting conference, they could see that the battle within the Ye family had begun.

Although after Ye Mengeng's violent death, Ye Mengxin swept Ye Yu out of the house on the grounds that Ye Yu was not a descendant of the Ye family, but in the eyes of outsiders, this was just a means for Ye Mengxin to occupy the family business.

Now that the tea master sent by Ye Yu collided with Ye Mengxin at this tea fighting conference, a battle of tea merchants will be inevitable in the future.

Therefore, at this moment, the shopkeepers of the tea shop are not thinking about whose tea is more fragrant, but about which side they should stand on in the future business war.

At the end of the conference, Lu Fan announced to everyone that the news of Ye Yu's opening of a tea shop was a signal of declaration of war. This will indicate that Ye Yu, who is behind Lu Fan, will be stationed and run the tea business.

This information surprised everyone, but it was also reasonable, the family business that belonged to Ye Yu back then was seized by the second uncle, and no one would stop there.

However, if you want to wash away the grievances of the year, the best way is to defeat the opponent in the mall and snatch the things that belong to you!

Although many people are not optimistic about Ye Yu, after all, the Ye family's status as the number one tea merchant has been many years, and it is not easy to replace him and completely defeat him.

But there are also many people who feel that this matter is not impossible, if Ye Yu's financial resources can now be on par with Ye Mengxin, the only difference is that the industries involved in the two are different.

However, after this tea fight, the trend of the situation may change.

Because at this tea fighting conference, whether it is famous tea, tea skills, or novel purple-black tea ware, it will become a symbol of Ye Yu's entry into the tea industry.

This will indicate Chuzhou Tribute Tea, and perhaps it won't be long before there will be a famous tea that will replace the Ye family's Longtuan Shengxue.

It will also indicate that Ye Mengxin's tea will no longer be a monopoly, which is not a good thing for them, the tea shop shopkeepers.

After returning from the tea fighting conference, Ye Mengxin felt that the situation was not good, so in order to consolidate his power as the leader of the tea industry, he specially invited all the tea merchants to the shopkeeper and gave discounts to win everyone over.

His intention was to strangle the seedling of Ye Yu's entry into the tea business in the cradle he had set. In Ye Mengxin's opinion, with his business status in Chuzhou, who would buy Ye Yu's account?

After the tea fighting meeting, everyone had their own thoughts, although most of the tea merchants tended to follow Ye Mengxin, but there were also a few medium-sized tea merchants who maintained a wait-and-see attitude and were ready to offend both.

Because everyone has seen the uniqueness of Ye Yu, for more than two years, Ye Yu's momentum has been unstoppable like a feather arrow off the string.

No one can guarantee that he will be inferior to Ye Mengxin in the tea industry, so the best position is neutrality.

Longshan Temple is still exceptionally quiet, Ye Yu recently made a special trip to Longshan Temple to play against Master Yuantong whenever he had time, because in the quiet mountain temple, listening to the morning bell and dusk drum will calm his restless heart.

In the past two years, he seems to be able to handle things easily, but no one knows the anxiety in his suppressed heart. Business is not his specialty, so although the journey has been smooth, how can the nerves and souls involved be humane.

Since setting up a bureau in Longshan Temple to question Lu Kun, Ye Yu and Master Yuantong have become friends for the year, but whenever there is leisure, Ye Yu will play against Yuantong.

Listening to a few words of Zen Buddhism and tasting a few mountain teas is also the best way to reduce anxiety. At this time, in the Zen courtyard, Ye Yu was playing against Master Yuantong for tea, but Lu Fan's arrival interrupted the two of them.

"Lu Fan, you really didn't disappoint me!" Ye Yu said softly, with a look of relief on his face.

Lu Fan looked upright, and said seriously: "Lu Fan doesn't dare to take credit, if it weren't for Engong's preparation of the best tea and tea utensils, Lu Fan wouldn't be able to stand out!" ”

Ye Yu felt always very uncomfortable when he heard Lu Fan call himself Engong, so he said: "You can call me the owner in the future, by the way, have you prepared for the tea shop?" ”

"It will be completed in the near future, but I heard that Ye Mengxin has already started to make some moves, I'm afraid it will ......"

Lu Fan's concerns made Ye Yu smile: "You don't have to worry about this matter, I have already guessed the trick of this old thing, he deliberately blocked the road in front of him, just to prevent me from breaking his status as the number one tea merchant." It's a pity that he was wrong, and I didn't plan to go down this path! ”

"What does the owner mean......" Lu Fan was stunned at first when he heard this, but then he suddenly realized: "The owner is smart!" Lu Fan admires! ”

"Well, I have already sent someone to negotiate with the Huizhou government to buy the land at the foot of the Yellow Mountain. Since you are from a homemade tea family, you must also have studied tea planting, and in the future, the planting and picking of tea trees will all fall on your Lu Da shopkeeper! Ye Yu said as he played against Yuantong.

"Thank you to the owner for entrusting me with a heavy responsibility, Lu Fan has nothing to repay, only his liver and brain to repay his kindness!"

"Repay the favor and be exempt, just do things well. For my sake and for yourself! ”

Lu Fan was grateful to Dai De and said solemnly: "Don't worry, Lu Fan will definitely help the owner defeat the Ye family's tea industry!" ”

"That's what you want?" Ye Yu stopped his son in his hand, glanced at Lu Fan sideways, and asked solemnly with a solemn expression.

Ye Yu's sudden inquiry made Lu Fan's expression froze, he saw a rare flamboyance through Ye Yu's eyes, and at this moment he understood what the owner in front of him wanted.

So after stabilizing his mind, Zhengse said: "Lu Fan understands!" But I don't know how to name this new tea, please make it clear! ”

"Just call Mao Feng, go and get busy with you!"

"Lu Fan retires!"

After Lu Fan left the Zen Academy, Ye Yu arched his hand to Yuantong on the opposite side and said apologetically: "I'm sorry, it's really a sin to disturb the younger generation and the master's Yaxing for trivial matters!" ”

Yuantong's fat body sat like a tower mountain, but there was always a smile on his broad face, and Yuantong lightly twisted the Buddha beads with one hand and said: "Amitabha, the little donor seems to be quite angry!" There is a cycle of cause and effect, so why should the little benefactor be too persistent? ”

"Oh? The master saw that the junior was angry? Ye Yu looked at Yuantong in front of him with great interest, and felt that Yuantong was born with a sense of joy, just like Maitreya Buddha.

Yuantong smiled, stretched out his round thick fingers, pointed to the table chess game and said: "The attack is sharp and the advance and retreat are measured, and the chess game can be seen in human nature!" ”

Ye Yu heard this, looked at the black and white chess pieces, and finally smiled: "The master really has a unique vision, it seems that the younger generation still has a lot to learn......

"The little benefactor implies that the anger is too heavy, and the depression is very deep, if you don't suppress it, you may hurt yourself in the future! This is the advice of the old man, please consider it yourself! ”

"Everything is too much, but everything is impermanent, how can there be a fixed number, a sharp sword can hurt others and hurt yourself, but please rest assured that the master can send and receive the sword freely in the hand!"

Ye Yu was deeply grateful for Yuantong's persuasion, but then he changed his words: "The master was once a mortal person, and he should know the truth that the eldest husband has something to do and something not to do.

The so-called cycle of cause and effect seems to the younger generations to be nothing but self-deception, for example, if a person has sown a 'cause' because of his evil deeds, it will be a 'result' to be sent to the hell of the nose in the future, but who can see it between you and me? Why not address this cause and effect in this world? ”

"Huh! It seems that the little donor does not believe in cause and effect......" Although he was surprised by Ye Yu's answer, Yuantong did not feel inappropriate, and still smiled kindly.

Believe in the Cycle of Cause and Effect? Although Ye Yu is not a faithful atheist, he will not believe in any karmic cycles, so he said calmly: "Please forgive the juniors, is the so-called Tianli Zhaozhao really so?" The master was once a general under Marshal Yue and Brother Li's father, Marshal Yue's death in the Fengbo Pavilion can be described as a strange injustice through the ages, although it was only rehabilitated after 16 years, but so what, can the dead really be recovered?

The younger generation only saw the treacherous Qin Hui calling for wind and rain for a lifetime, and finally died of illness! Is this called cause and effect? Vindicated? Chase the seal? Justification? Do the dead know? ”

As soon as he mentioned the events of that year, the smile on Yuantong's face suddenly stiffened, and he seemed to recall the Jin Ge Iron Horse on the battlefield back then, and his small eyes burst out with a sharp look.

The fat left hand twisted the Buddha beads trembled slightly, and if you listened carefully, you could hear the squeaking sound.

Looking at Yuantong's tense expression, Ye Yu comforted him: "As a junior, Ye Yu only knows that 10,000 years is too long, and he only seizes the day!" At least I won't regret it for the rest of my life! ”

Yuantong's expression gradually calmed down, and finally sighed slightly, folded his hands and said ashamedly: "It seems that Lao Gu has been converted to Buddhism for thirty years, but it is still difficult to erase the anger in his heart!" Although what the little donor said is too extreme, it is also quite reasonable! However, the old man is here, and he still hopes that the little donor will do it himself! ”

Seeing that neither side could convince the other, Ye Yu could only laugh and say nothing. It was nearly evening when the two of them finished the endgame, so Ye Yu asked Yuantong to resign and leave.

When he walked out of the mountain gate in a wheelchair, a small novice ran out of the temple: "Master Ye, please stay!" ”

"Little master doesn't know what to order?" Ye Yu clasped his hands together and asked with a salute to Xiao Shami.

The little novice bowed with one hand, recited a sentence of Amitabha, and then offered a burden with both hands: "Lord Ye, this is what the abbot ordered the little monk to hand over to you!" ”

"Oh?"

"Master Ye cherishes all the way!" Before Ye Yu could say anything, Xiao Shami performed a Buddhist ritual and turned around and walked into the temple.

Ye Yu couldn't help but shake his head as he looked at the back of Xiao Shami's departure, and then his gaze fell on the burden in his hand. What's in it? Ye Yu thought of this, and opened the burden out of curiosity.

When he opened it, he found that in addition to the two thread-bound books, there was also a black shirt......
