Wu Jiugong was fiddling with the tea ceremony, and after making a smooth movement, he handed the teacup containing the tea to Lin Jin. Lin Jin took it and killed it in one gulp.

Seeing her movements, the corners of Wu Jiugong's eyes twitched a few times, and he endured it again and again, but finally couldn't help but say, "How can you drink like this?" After you take the tea cup, you should first put it under your nose and smell the aroma of the tea, then take a sip, carefully taste the taste of the tea, and then drink it slowly. It's a shame that you're still a very well-established family, and I don't know which mountain village you think you came from! What a humiliation! ”

There is no way, in her previous life, she was an out-and-out grassroots, even if she was born to the elegant Lin family in this life, she still can't change her "vulgar" atmosphere that has been imprinted in her bones.

Lin Jin smiled disappreciatively: "For me, tea is to quench my thirst." As for the art of tea, I would too, but it was just a tool for pretending to be elegant. We're both so familiar that no one knows the other yet, so I'm too lazy to pretend in front of you. ”

Putting the teacup down and reaching out to pick up the teapot, she poured the tea and asked, "You invited me here today, didn't you just invite me to tea?" ”

"Didn't you drink this tea today any different from what we usually drink?" Without waiting for Lin Jin to answer, Wu Jiugong said helplessly: "Forget it, asking you is equivalent to 'playing the piano to the cow', or let me tell you." We are now drinking white tea from Yunnan sold by the Chamber of Commerce. ”

"Huh?" Hearing this, Lin Jin was stunned, and said with some surprise: "Isn't the Chamber of Commerce only engaged in maritime trade?" Yunnan is inland, not connected to the sea, and the 'Ancient Tea Horse Road' in Yunnan is very tightly controlled by other forces, and 90% of the tea over there is in their hands.

If the Chamber of Commerce does this, it is tantamount to grabbing food in the hands of others, how can people be willing? Don't look at the reputation of the forces that control the ancient tea horse road, but the strength should not be underestimated, if we really want to fight, we may not be able to take advantage. ”

"Why fight with them, why don't we join forces with them to do business? There are our ships at the wharves in Annam and Guangxi, and the tea from Yunnan only needs to be transported there, which is not only much safer than them taking the ancient tea horse road to sell tea, but also shortens the distance a lot, and the cost has also dropped a lot. ”

After listening to his explanation, Lin Jin nodded clearly, didn't say anything more about this matter, changed the topic, and asked: "By the way, I asked the Chamber of Commerce to help send gifts to Beijing before, and it was delivered in time for the February Ten Flowers Festival, and today is the right day, it should be no problem, right?" ”

"That's what I'm telling you." Wu Jiugong looked embarrassed, and said a little embarrassed: "Originally, it was no problem, but the ship was in the middle of the way, and there were two ships colliding in front, just like that, it was delayed a little, and it may be a few days late to be delivered, but I have sent a message to them as soon as possible, but they replied that it would take fifteen to be delivered." ”

Originally, the reason why Lin Jin set the date of February 12 was because Daiyu's birthday on this day, but now it is not a coincidence, a few days late, although Lin Jin is a little displeased, but she also knows that the collision between two boats in the middle of the boat is an uncontrollable factor, and it is a helpless thing, so she sighed helplessly and said: "Forget it, a few days later, a few days later." Next time I give a gift, I have learned a lesson, this matter is not too late. ”

"I remember that many of the things you sent to your sister in the capital this time were food, and it shouldn't be bad for a few days at night, right?"

"Don't worry, no problem. A lot of things are like canned food and can be stored for a long time. ”

Wu Jiugong said a little puzzled: "Actually, you really don't need to send so much food to the past, people are in the Guogong Mansion, in her grandmother's house, what can't be eaten, where is the need for you to send it all the way?" It's really a bit too much, and after the Najia family sees it, they won't feel that your sister and brother are affectionate, and they will feel that you don't worry about others. ”

Lin Jin smiled and said: "You're right, don't look at my sister's grandmother's house, but I'm really not at ease." ”
