Chapter 219: Verbal Sword
"Can you give me this house for tea?" When the old man said a word, the whole room was quiet.
Everyone here knows how important this recipe is, so the originally harmonious atmosphere suddenly became fierce after this sentence. Everyone in the room held their breath, their minds racing about what they wanted, the price they could pay, and most importantly, the bottom line.
"Hehehe...... Old man, you're joking! Uncle Zhong looked at his eldest lady frowning, and stood up without hesitation, smiled, and said to the old man.
Uncle Zhong did this, in fact, to give the old money a step down, after the old money said this, the atmosphere in the room was tense, if he had the heart to take a step back, there was a ladder handed out by Uncle Zhong, and it would be over.
"That's it, Dad, don't be kidding!" It was Qian Shanming who spoke, he pulled his father's clothes a little stiffly, and said dryly. I don't know if it's because of nervousness or for other reasons, the expression on his face is very tense.
Uncle Zhong saw that there was a door to this matter, and he was busy persuading Qian Shanming together, looking at this posture, as long as he persuaded the old man, whether it was a tea garden or a tea green, it was no problem.
Although Qian Shanming can't understand his father's persistence and stubbornness in tea, he has been obedient from beginning to end since he was a child, even if there is no other livelihood at home, living in a broken grass house, and there are no complaints.
But now it's different, looking at my own two children. A girl has grown up and is ready to get married, how can she wring out the dowry for the boy to marry and the dowry for the girl to marry? No dowry, no dowry. What will happen to the children?
Even Qingshan's arrival undoubtedly opened a window for Qian Shanming, letting him know that this kind of tea and fried tea can also be lived like this, naturally, making their originally poor family. There is also a lot of loose money. With such an opportunity, Qian Shanming made up his mind that even if he disobeyed his father's wishes, he would let the children have a good future.
Because Uncle Zhong and Qian Shanming were playing a round on the side, the atmosphere in the room was not as tense as it was just now. Several people waited for the old man to get off the donkey down the slope with their breath, but they saw that he didn't talk to Uncle Zhong, nor did he listen to his son's persuasion, so he silently took out a cigarette pouch and pot from his waist.
The old man drooped his eyelids, filled his head with a bag of cigarettes and lit it, and after taking a few puffs, he wiped his mouth with the root of his palm as if he had made up his mind. "I'm not going around the bush with you, I'm not joking, I want my tea garden. Just take the recipe in exchange, if you only want the tea in my garden, take out the silver, one hand of money and one hand, my old money is a real person! ”
Real people? The money shopkeeper heard this, his nose was crooked, and he really asked for the ancestral tea recipe of others? Really people don't talk about it at all? I am really your ancestor for eight generations! The money shopkeeper is angry and angry. But he knew that he was just a companion here, and he couldn't say anything decisive. He took a sip of tea and didn't say a word.
Even Qingshan didn't think that the tea recipe was important. After all, his own snow blossom tea was figured out by Cui'er in less than half a month, and he was still thinking about how much money it would cost to make this tea garden, so he didn't speak.
"The secret recipe for making tea is the treasure of every family heirloom, Uncle Qian, you directly ask for our heirloom with this opening, it's not appropriate, right?" Cui'er looked at this situation and knew that it would be impossible for her not to speak, of course, she must not weaken her momentum just because she was a woman, she smiled slightly, but the words she said were a little colder.
"How inappropriate!" The old man took a hard puff of his cigarette and muttered for a long time, "You also watched, our family is from the origin of roasted tea, and this tea garden is the lifeblood of our family, if you want such a valuable thing, you naturally have to ask me for the price I want, right?" That's what it means to have a sky-high asking price.
"Is this tea garden the lifeblood of your family, but it has little to do with me, who just wants to buy tea, right? Do I want to buy rice to eat, and I don't care if I can't plant a few acres of that kind of rice? It's a deal that you and I want, and if other conditions are imposed, then the deal will turn sour. ”
Cui'er's meaning is obvious, you can ask for the price all over the sky, I can sit on the ground and pay back, now I just buy tea green, I want too many things, I'm afraid you will lose more than you lose, if your price is too high, it's a big deal to break up.
"Heh, how can tea planting be compared to the kind of rice and wheat? The tea trees in my tea garden, but the good tea varieties brought back from Hudong by my ancestors, have been planted like this every year, and they have been planted for decades, and the tea taste is positive and the fragrance is strong, which is not comparable to ordinary small saplings. The old money head looked at Cui'er's attitude a little tough, coughed, knocked on the cigarette bag pot, and praised his own tea.
"The old tea tree is naturally good, but the truth that you get what you pay for will not change. Although the tea is good, it will also be old, but the recipe is different, even if this recipe is put for a hundred years, it is still valuable, and it is not necessarily that it will be more valuable. If the price is too high, it is better not to buy it, or wait a few years, our own tea trees will grow up and grow a lot, and it will not be too late to buy and sell this tea. Cui'er said something with a smile, which was straightforward and shocking.
The old money man listened to Cui'er's words, and the hand that was about to fill another bag of cigarettes suddenly stopped, and the old money man with the cunning thoughts of a small farmer suddenly understood that people actually had tea gardens, and they were not so eager to want their own tea gardens. Today, I came to see my own tea garden, but I just fell in love with the large output of my own tea garden, and I wanted to borrow such a hen to lay eggs and make more money.
"These are all people who love tea and make tea, and they have a good recipe, and it is normal to want it......" The old money head stuffed his head and filled another bag of cigarettes, taking advantage of this kung fu, he smoothed out the things before and after again, looked up at his dilapidated adobe house, and thought of several grandchildren of marriage age, the old money man sighed and said, but he was relieved in disguise.
"It is. I saw Uncle Qian's brick tea, and I couldn't help but want to study how to do it! Cui'er saw that people were willing to put down the shelves, so she naturally followed the conversation, and the atmosphere in the room softened again.
"That's it, they're all tea lovers. What's not to say? Uncle Zhong saw that Cui'er was convinced by what the old man said in a few words, and followed the round with a smile.
"That's it, I won't tell you that the tea trees on the three hills of our family are all good, and they have been saved for decades. If it weren't for the fact that the children in the family were older and in a hurry to use the money, where would we be willing to sell! Qian Shanming also followed the round, I don't know if it was because people were too honest, so he lifted his own foundation as he spoke.
"Ahem......" Old Qian coughed tightly. didn't cough back Qian Shanming's words, he turned his head to look at the eldest son who was too honest to work, and couldn't help but sigh, don't want this good tea recipe, if it really becomes his own thing, it won't be a few moments before the group of fox cubs outside will be taken out?
Thinking about it like this, the old man's heart was relieved because he couldn't get a good tea recipe. Tea recipe is life, sometimes there must be in life, and there is no time in life to force it! "Say it. What kind of way to do business! ”
Seeing that the old man had compromised, everyone in the room breathed a sigh of relief. exchanged glances with each other, or according to the original plan, if you can buy a tea garden, you can buy a tea garden, and if you can buy tea green, you can buy tea green.
"Uncle Qian, that's what we think. It's better for an outsider to have than for himself, if he could. We want to buy this tea plantation. But you don't have to worry about your livelihood in the future, after I buy the tea garden. I hired your family to help me take care of the tea garden, the house in this tea garden is still you live, the tea trees are still taken care of by you, and the tea produced in this tea garden every year is picked on time and sent to the tea workshop. Cui'er was the first to speak, and when she saw that the old man's face was a little ugly, she opened her mouth as if she wanted to refuse, so she continued.
"Uncle Qian, don't be in a hurry to refuse, if you feel that your family has lost their support without the tea garden, you can also only sell us tea green, in this way, the quantity and quality of tea green tea need to be determined by us, how much is tea green per ten catties, we will pay immediately after weighing." Cui'er smiled and said another way of cooperation, buying a tea garden or buying tea green is almost the same for Cui'er, and there is no more inclination in her heart.
"This ......" The old man couldn't think about what to do, pinched the cigarette pouch and pot and lowered his head in thought.
"Uncle Qian, think about it, if you sell the tea garden and sign a contract with us as a hired laborer, you will not only get a full sum of silver, but also have a guaranteed livelihood every year in the future, which is a long-term thing. And only sell the tea green to us, to put it mildly, we buy tea green for emergency purposes, two or three years later, our own tea mountain grows well, and we will not accept your tea here. ”
"Take a step back, if you hire your family to manage the tea garden, to put it bluntly, we are half a family, if you plant some tea trees or something on the nearby mountains, I won't care, if the tea workshop recruits a roasted tea master or something, isn't it from your own family? After three or five years, the child who roasted tea became an apprentice, don't your family know about this recipe? ”
Hearing this, the old man's originally dim eyes lit up, his two eldest grandsons are good at kneading tea, if he can be an apprentice in the tea-making workshop, he will be able to get the recipe in less than two years! That's what my ancestor did when he got tea seeds and tea making recipes from Hudong, and this thing is feasible!
"Okay, then let's talk about how to sell tea gardens!" The old man unconsciously straightened his waist with a smile of expectation on his face.
