Now these steamed teas are all green tea, and the varieties are relatively single, Zhou Yi suddenly remembered, so why didn't he make other varieties?

Zhou Yi instantly thought of fermented tea and fried tea.

In fact, the process of fermenting and roasting tea is not complicated, but it only appeared in the Ming Dynasty as late, and in the 21st century, basically the tea is mainly fried, Hubei Enshi Yulu, cactus tea and so on are the few remaining varieties of steamed green tea.

Zhou Yi didn't want to explore why fried tea would defeat steamed tea, he just thought that since fried tea could defeat steamed tea in a few hundred years, then making fried tea now would also be able to defeat steamed tea.

Back home, there are only a few people in the Daguan Teahouse, looking at their clothes, I know that they should be crop men from the nearby village, and the Yunwu Tea House opposite can't afford to consume, so I drink some cheap tea in this Daguan Tea House to quench my thirst.

These people can't create profits, Zhou Yi shook his head helplessly and sighed, not thinking about change, and claiming to be a legacy, probably this will be the end.

He went to the back kitchen to find Zhou Min: "Let's go, I'll take you out to play." ”

"Brother, what are you going out to play at this time?" Zhou Min glanced at Zhou Yi and said, "Before my father and mother come back, we should also find a way to maintain it." ”

Zhou Yi smiled: "Yes, I took you out to find a way." Go grab some sacks and come with me. ”

"What do you want sacks for?"

"Don't worry so much, just follow me, hurry up."

After the two of them told the little servant to greet the guests, they went out and walked along the street until they went out of the city.

Qingshen is located on the southwestern edge of the Sichuan Basin, at the end of the Longquan Mountains. It is located in the southern edge of the West Sichuan Plain and the middle reaches of the Minjiang River, bordering Meishan in the north, Leshan in the south, Jiajiang in the west, and Jingyan in the east.

Out of the city, Zhou Yi and Zhou Min went to the direction of Cimu Mountain, Cimu Mountain, also known as Zhongyan, belongs to the tail end of the Longquan Mountain Range in Sichuan, perennial shade, birds and flowers, and those sons and girls also like to come to the outer grass to play, so Zhou Min is not a stranger.

Zhou Min followed Zhou Yi here without saying a word, but at this time, he finally couldn't help it, and asked: "Brother, if we can't come up with the money for more than 20 days, then Wang Xuerong will probably have to go over the teahouse, and at this time, do you still have the leisure to let me accompany you to go green?" ”

Breathing the fragrant air of the mountains and forests and the fragrance of the earth, Zhou Yi was intoxicated and said with a smile: "Now in March, before and after the Qingming Festival, it is the most suitable time to go out, how can you always stay at home?" ”

Zhou Min was not as interested as him, thinking of the current situation of Daguan Tea House, sometimes she felt unstable when she slept.

"Oh, brother, what the hell are you trying to do, this is all rushing to kill me, you are still here......"

Zhou Yi stood still and said, "Let's go pick tea." ”

"Tea picking?"

"Yes, I thought of a new way to make tea, the tea made is guaranteed to be much better than the current tea, when everyone comes to our store to drink tea, then we will be rich, the hundred yuan is not a thing, you can throw it to him." Thursday raised his head slightly, looking at the sky in the distance, and a little crystal clear saliva flowed from the corner of his mouth.

Zhou Min was also full of longing, and after longing, he asked: "But brother, we don't have a tea garden, where are we going to pick tea?" ”

"We can borrow it."

"Who are you borrowing?"

"Isn't there a tea tree on this mountain? Let's see whose tea trees are unguarded, so go to someone to borrow them. ”

"Isn't that stealing?"

"Nonsense, can the matter of the tea shop be called stealing?"

"Oh."

After some ideological education, Zhou Min finally established the correct three views, and the two of them got into the woods and went to the mountain with a sack.

Generally, good tea is grown in the high mountains, such as the famous alpine cloud tea, and before and after the Qingming Festival is also the best season for tea picking.

It had just rained a few days ago, and the trail was a bit difficult to walk, and there was wet mud everywhere, and sometimes when you stepped on it, your ankles could sink into the mud.

However, Zhou Yi felt full of interest, and Zhou Min followed him, reaching out from time to time to pick some wild things to eat.

Halfway up the mountain, I looked back and saw that the houses were shrouded in a faint mist. The humidity here was heavy, and the clothes of both of them were already wet with dew.

After a while, they came to a tea plantation, which was built on the mountainside, and the tea trees were just waist-high, looking green, exuding a refreshing fragrance of tea.

"Good tea." Zhou Yi said with emotion that these teas are of good quality and pure in color, and he is fascinated by them.

After all, Zhou Min is still a thief for the first time, and her psychological quality is not too strong, looking at these tea leaves, she showed a nervous expression on her face, and kept looking back and forth, left and right, and saw that there was not even a fly outside of herself and Zhou Yi, so she was a little relieved, and urged: "Brother, let's go pick tea quickly, it would be bad if someone came." ”

"Yes." Zhou Yi nodded slightly, and then asked, "Sister, do you know how to pick tea?" ”

“…… This one...... No. Zhou Min was a little embarrassed, he didn't have a tea garden at home, and he hadn't picked tea at all.

Zhou Yi said indifferently: "Forget it, I won't, just pick up all these leaves, I heard that the tea leaves want the buds, let's just pick those buds, and the rest will go back." ”

When he stretched out his evil right hand to the tea tree closest to him, Zhou Min asked again, "Brother, is there really no problem for us to do this?" ”

Zhou Yi replied: "There should be no problem now, if someone comes, it may be a big problem." ”

"Oh."

So the two of them began to like crazy.

Tea picking is about "one bud and one leaf", that is to say, only the most tender bud and the closest bud to the bud are the best, but the two of them don't know this, and they are also found because they are afraid of staying too long, so they directly cut off the buds together with a small section of twigs below, which invisibly caused some damage to the tea tree, but both of them were unaware, after all, this is not their own tea tree, and if it is destroyed, it will be destroyed.

After an hour of hard work, the sacks of both of them were plump, Zhou Yi felt that it was almost there, wiped the beads of sweat on his forehead, and said, "It's almost, I don't know how much tea can be made out of these." ”

Zhou Min was about to reply, but he heard the sound of two people talking in the distance, and suddenly changed his face in fright, and exclaimed: "Brother, someone is here, what should we do?" ”

"What else can I do, of course it's running away, it's hard to wait to be caught, come, follow me." Zhou Yi seemed very experienced in this kind of thing, he took Zhou Min to bend down and bow his head, shuttle back and forth among the tea trees, and soon arrived at the edge of the tea plantation, just go out.

But just when the two of them were a step away from the woods, Zhou Min suddenly couldn't help but scream: "Ah...... Snake ......"

Less than a foot away from the two of them, a small slender green snake the thickness of a thumb was crawling gracefully on the grass.

Zhou Yi didn't have time to cover her mouth at all, and the little snake seemed to be greatly frightened, and went deep into the woods without looking back.

The two people patrolling the tea garden were naturally alarmed, and ran over to this side, listening to the footsteps getting closer and closer, Zhou Yi did not hesitate, holding two sacks in one hand, and grabbing Zhou Min's wrist with one hand, dragging her in horror and rushing down the mountain.

"It's not good, someone steals tea, stop, the two in front of you, stop, if you don't stop, we'll report to the official, let you squat in prison, don't run away thief......"

The two mountain rangers shouted and chased after them, Zhou Yi and they panicked, they only knew how to run down the mountain, but Zhou Yi dragged two sacks, and Zhou Min ran unprofessionally, the distance between the two sides was getting closer and closer.

"Oops......" Zhou Min, who was running at high speed, tripped over something, and the whole person fell to the ground, Zhou Yi was also taken down by her, Zhou Yi grabbed the tea with one hand, held Zhou Min in his arms with the other, and then closed it, so that Zhou Min was sandwiched between himself and the tea by him, and then rolled all the way down the grass on the hillside.

Fortunately, it was not far from the foot of the mountain, and the weeds were luxuriant, and there were no protruding stones, so fortunately, the two of them rolled quite smoothly, and soon reached the foot of the mountain, and by mistake they were farther away from the pursuers behind.

When he arrived at the foot of the mountain, Zhou Yi shook his dizzy head, looked for a direction, and said to Zhou Min, "Let's go." ”

Under the pull, Zhou Min was motionless, and when she looked back, she had fainted.

"Women are trouble." Zhou Yi muttered dissatisfiedly, and then dragged his coat down as a rope to tie two bags of tea to Zhou Min's arms, while he himself bent down slightly to carry Zhou Min on his back.

There was a shout from behind, Zhou Yi didn't dare to hesitate, and ran wildly, but instead of going to the city, he ran to a farmhouse village outside the city.

Running between the ridges, he fell into the field several times, his whole body was soaked, and he looked embarrassed, and the two people behind him were still in hot pursuit.

Zhou Yi rushed into the village, shuttling back and forth in the alleys, and finally found a family with a decent size, kicked open the door and rushed into the courtyard.

An old farmer who was kneading tea leaves pointed at him and shouted: "Hey, hey, hey, who is that, how did he break into a private house......

Zhou Yi gasped and said: "Uncle, someone in the back wants to rob my things, the two of us come in to avoid it, and when we are safe, I promise to give you a high reward, thank you." Please be sure to help. ”

Without waiting for anyone to agree, he had already rushed into the firewood room in the backyard.
