Chapter 32 - The Tea Man
The person who came was the owner of this tea shop, Qi Ye.
The call "master" does not mean how old the person is; It is that this person is a leader in this industry, whether it is qualifications or professional level, and is highly recognized by people in the industry, of course, this also shows that this person's popularity and status in this industry are also extraordinary.
Long Hu simply introduced Yun Yi to Qi Ye: "Qi Ye, this is my sister Yun Yi." ”
Long Hu solemnly introduced Qi Ye to Yun Yi again: "Sister Yun Yi This is Qi Ye, a famous tea man in the country, planting tea, raising tea, making tea, and fighting tea, all ...... know it, and your Huzi brother came to Ya'an during this time to rely on Qi Ye's care to make it not so boring." ”
"Thank you Qi Ye for taking care of Brother Huzi, so that Brother Huzi's life in Ya'an is full of colorful oil beads."
"Heh, heh, heh, heh, Miss Yunyi is polite, where is it, Longhu is my friend, and it is my honor for him to come to me."
What are colorful oil beads? Long Hu felt that what Yun Yi said just now didn't taste right, "Yun Yi, what do you mean?" What are colorful oil beads? ”
Yun Yi opened his innocent eyes and said, "One meaning, isn't it Brother Huzi who has no silver three hundred taels here?" "Wow...... Yun nodded suddenly and looked at Long Hu meaningfully.
Long Hu found that he was tricked, "Hey, I have a long ability, the little girl liar has not seen her for a few months and has learned to rely on her mouth, yes, yes, I have to tell my eldest brother that you have completely fallen into our family." After speaking, Long Hu got up and left, and called Team Wei to report Yunyi's safety.
Qi Ye then made tea for Yun Yi.
Qi Ye is not tall, about forty years old, there is no hair on his head, looking at the bright light bulb on the top of his head, it is estimated that no hair can grow, Qi Ye's round and round face is flushed with red and ruddy light, he likes to laugh very much, laughing like an open Maitreya.
Qi Ye is wearing a set of white satin dark flower dragon pattern Tai Chi suit, a pair of handmade cloth shoes under his feet are simple and fine, the white bottom line is pressed on the black suede is even more ingenious, Qi Ye's hands are short and ruddy with a string of yellow pear bracelets, and the bracelet is evenly pulped and oily.
Qi Ye knew that Yun Yi was the sister of Long Hu and was not stingy with his own excellent tea, so he brewed a brew of "Zi Bamboo Shoots" for Yun Yi to drink, the annual output of "Zi Zhu Shoots" was small, and the wholesale price of this tea was 1,000 yuan a tael, if it wasn't for a deep friend like Long Hu, Qi Ye generally didn't take it out to drink.
Although this tea is green tea, it is different from the Longjing with one bud and two leaves and the bamboo leaf green with one bud and one leaf, of course, it is different from Mao Feng, crab eye fragrant beads and other teas, this tea is a bud, the bud is a leaf, like a miniature spring bamboo shoot, soaked in the water to emit a faint fragrance, in the mouth of the fragrant tongue slightly elastic aroma spreads, lips and teeth fragrance can not be spoken.
Such a good tea naturally can not let the dragon and tiger to brew, the whole process of Qi Ye hands-on, the temperature of the tea, the speed of the water, the amount of water that are all exquisite, making tea is to pay attention to, this is the Zen of tea, the Tao of tea.
Qi Ye told Yun Yi about the classification of tea while making tea: green tea its representatives - West Lake Longjing, Dongting Biluochun, Huangshan Maofeng, Mengding nectar, Lu'an melon ......; Oolong tea its representatives - Wuyi Rock Tea, Anxi Tieguanyin, Taiwan Oolong, Phoenix Dancong, Wing Chun Buddha Hand ......; The representative of black tea - Qimen black tea, Yunnan red, Fujian red kung fu tea......; Yellow tea its representatives - Mengding Yellow Bud, Junshan Silver Needle, Wenzhou Yellow Soup ......; White tea its representatives - white peony, shou mei, white silver needle ......; The representative of black tea - Ya'an's side tea, Yunnan's Pu'er, Hunan's Xiangjian ......; Of course, there are also a variety of flower tea .......
Good tea eats good water, the water for making tea needs to be clear, light, watery, and sweet, and ...... water.
Seeing that Yun Yi listened carefully, after a bubble of bamboo shoots, Qi Ye took out his treasure again - "Forty Years Old Tree Pu'er" This tea is a palace-level collection of Qi Ye, the tea is uniform in size without insect eyes, the tea soup is like aged red wine, the house is full of fragrance, and the entrance is as smooth as silk, it is really good tea.
Like the fragrance of the tea of the camphor tree, Jiu'er woke up all the fragrance, Jiu'er smelled the fragrance and wanted to ask for a cup of tea, but it was now a dog, how could Yun Yi be embarrassed to give such a good tea to the dog in front of the strange master?
At this moment, Yun Yi is very entangled, give Jiu'er a tea bar Outsiders will feel violent when they see it, and they feel sorry for Jiu'er if they don't give Jiu'er tea, after all, Jiu'er is also their family member, Yun Yi had to secretly pour the tea in his cup into the water bowl prepared by Longhu for Jiu'er when Qi Ye was not paying attention.
Jiu'er drank fragrant tea and reminded: "Yunyi, why don't you ask that person where there is tea essence?" ”
Ah, I almost forgot about the business, Yun Yi patted her head.
"Qi Ye, do you know what tea essence is?"
Tea essence? Different people have different understandings of tea essence, tea essence is literally the essence of tea, maybe this tea essence is brewed just right cup of tea; Maybe it's the tea stains that have accumulated on the tea tray over the years; It may also be a tea pet that has been raised for many years; More likely, it is the tea paste that has accumulated over the years in the process of roasting tea or fermenting tea leaves in Wudui.
Qi Ye thinks that tea paste is tea essence.
"Where is the Qiye tea paste sold?"
Of course, no one sells tea paste, this thing is hard to find, it just so happened that a friend of Qi Ye moved to a new factory last month, and the century-old handmade tea factory moved into the new factory of modern machine assembly line, Qi Ye found a lot of tea paste in the old factory stove, Wudui fermentation field and other places, these tea paste has been carefully refined by Qi Ye and is now Qi Ye's heart treasure, they are the tea essence in Qi Ye's heart.
No one sells tea paste, and Yun Yi is so lost.
Qi Ye couldn't bear to see Yun Yi disappointed because he couldn't buy tea paste, so he opened the drawer next to the big board and took out a Jingdezhen porcelain bottle and handed it to Yun Yi.
"What is this?" Yun Yi took the bottle and looked at it carefully, the well-behaved bottle was handmade and unique, and it is estimated that it will cost a lot of money to customize this bottle, right?
"You can't buy tea cream, no one sells it, so I happen to give you a bottle." Qi Ye is so generous.
At this moment, Yun Yi is salivating over this bottle of tea ointment, but he is ashamed to accept it in vain.
"A gentleman doesn't take the favor of others", this tea paste is obviously the favorite of the strange master, how can Yun Yi be embarrassed to take it for nothing? At this moment, it seems tacky to say that money is cheesy, and the only thing Yun Yi can get her hands on is her painting, but the painting can't be carried with her at any time, and at this moment Yun Yi can't exchange anything decent, and the porcelain vase in her hand has become a hot baby.
"Master Qi, this bottle of tea paste of yours is very important to me, it is not a gentleman's work to take away your heart, I will give you a painting of mine another day."
"Huh...... Scold...... Xiao Yunyi, you don't have to be polite, I haven't returned the love of the ice seed Huang Fei that your brother Huzi gave me last time - 'Wise Shenwu', and today I will treat it as my love. ”
Yun Yi looked at Huzi, Huzi nodded, and Yun Yi accepted the bottle of tea cream, but Yun Yi still decided to give a painting of "Tea Picking Girl" that she liked very much to Qi Ye.
Qi Ye has a tea garden on Mengding Mountain, and in the afternoon, a friend wants to go to the tea garden on the mountain to buy Qi Ye's special insect feces tea, and Qi Ye is going to say goodbye before lunch.
"Xiao Yunyi, I'll treat you to pick you up at night, and Huzi will wait for me to come back at night to eat hot pot." After speaking, Qi Ye smiled and waved away.
"Wait."
Yun Yi wanted to go to Mengding Mountain with Qi Ye, but he felt that it was inappropriate, so he had to ask Qi Ye to bring a tea tree with insects when he came back, and he had to bring it back with the soil.
Qi Ye didn't understand why Yun Yi wanted a tea tree with insects, Yun Yi couldn't tell the truth that he was looking for tea essence to wake up the tree, so he could only explain that he wanted to study tea trees and tea insects well, and try to plant tea trees at home.
Qi Ye smiled silently and nodded and left.
At lunch, Huzi's brain was hot and he wanted to invite Yunyi to eat foreign fast food and order online, but the tragedy was that Jiu'er wanted to eat everything when he saw the food on his mobile phone, and Longhu ordered more than a dozen takeaway restaurants to order enough for Jiu'er's rations.
Jiu'er was eating dozens of hamburgers, more than 100 fried chicken legs and dozens of steaks, Long Hu watched Jiu'er eat his four or five thousand oceans in one meal and was in pain, he knew that he would order such cheap food as steamed buns, and Long Hu beat his chest and regretted it!
There are more people who come to the tea shop in the afternoon, most of them are with their own treasures to let the dragon and tiger palm, there are also people who buy tea, there are more people to see the excitement, naturally there are more people who drink tea, and there is more water to wash tea and make tea in the water bowl, Yun Yi took out an empty bottle and filled a large bottle of tea in the water bowl, and filled a bag full of brewed tea leaves with his pocket, and bought a string of brown crystal bracelets in the shop that sells crystals next door.
Yun Yi regretted not asking what the Yinxuan Shangshen tea essence was, and now she can only prepare everything she can think of that may be tea essence, by the way, insect tea is also called tea essence in some places, Yun Yi asked Longhu to buy a few taels of insect tea from Qi Ye, I don't know what the tea essence that Yu likes is, I hope that the preparation is not in vain.
At dinner time, Qi Ye appeared in the tea shop again, he brought back a tea tree with soil and tea insects that Yun Yi wanted, he made a special trip back to Yun Yi to catch the wind, the insect feces tea cultivated by Qi Ye is a mountain insect tea with a small amount, mellow taste, fragrant feet, and environmental protection, and a few taels of insect tea also cost thousands of yuan to Longhu, plus in order to avoid Jiu'er from making trouble on the dinner table at night, Longhu first bought more than 100 fried chicken thighs for Jiu'er to be at the bottom, Longhu bleed a lot today.
Ya'an has three uniques: Yayu, Yanu, and Yayu.
Yayu means that there are 365 days in a year in Ya'an, and 300 days in Ya'an; Ya Nu means that the women of Ya'an are beautiful; This Yayu is the protagonist of tonight's table.
The hot pot that was originally said to be changed to Chinese food because of Longhu's sudden mouth ulcers (it is estimated that there is too much blood to give gas).
Qi Ye took Long Hu and Yun Yi to a local restaurant that is very famous for making Yayu, and the restaurant's signature dish is stewed Yayu soup, which is milky, thick, smooth, and the taste is extremely fresh; As an appetizer, the stewed fish soup is quite luxurious and very appetizing, and the spicy chicken slices in the restaurant are a must, and the sliced local chicken is poured with the restaurant'......s unique seasoning, which is hot and spicy, fragrant and numb, and has an endless aftertaste.
At the checkout, the boss took out a bone sword from Yayu's head in front of the guests, which is a unique thing on the head of genuine Yayu, and the appearance of the bone sword is quite like the sword in the hand of the male protagonist in the fantasy world, domineering and exposed.
Of course, the owner of this bone sword today is Yun Yi, the boss washed the bone sword and then wrapped it with red rope and put it in a delicate small box and handed it to Yun Yi, Yun Yi also liked this bone sword very much.
If the fate comes, the fate will be dispersed, and the fate will eventually meet again, the tea man has the Buddha's heart all with the fate, at will, and at will, Qi Ye did not keep Yun Yi and them too much, and instructed the driver to send the dragon and tiger and Yun Yi back to Chengdu on the second day.
