Chapter 167

Lin Baozhu, who originally wanted to suppress the price of the workshop, had a lot of pity in his heart at this time. 【Latest chapter reading. To be honest, she is not a ruthless person, and occasionally she is only ruthless to some wolf-hearted or shameless cheeky people. And when she met the workshop owner who was full of filial piety, she really didn't have such a hard heart and wanted to take the opportunity to cut the price.

The so-called good people are moral, those who have good intentions are at home, and those who do good deeds are prosperous. In fact, as people often say, have a good heart and reap good results. On weekdays, Lin Baozhu always says that she doesn't do wrongs and doesn't care about the reputation of a wicked woman, but in fact, she has never harmed the interests of others every time she acts. Even, grateful, she never shirked when the people in the village needed help.

And in return, everyone in Peachtree Bay respected her and even was full of gratitude to her. Even if her own man is not at home, the people in the village have voluntarily become her dependence.

Lin Baozhu has no great ability, let alone the strength to build a new countryside or open up a peach blossom source, she only hopes to make a fortune with her own hands, and can grow old with her own man for a lifetime of happiness and stability.

But unconsciously, she was kind to others and received many rewards. Even, even the Lu Pozi family, who has a talented man, has always been grateful to her, and has never treated her slowly because of a capable person in the family.

Seeing that the owner of the workshop was careful not to talk about the price easily, Lin Baozhu simply took the lead in speaking, and she didn't take it, and said with a smile: "Since you don't hide it, I won't talk to you politely, let's talk about it, I don't know how you plan to sell the workshop?" As long as the price is right, I will not refuse to bargain. After a pause, she said again, "It's just that those guys still need you to discuss with our Zhang Ji's big shopkeeper, if it is honest and reliable, Zhang Ji is naturally willing to continue to use it." However, if there is a cheater and a trickster, Rao knows that you are kind, and Zhang Ji can't afford it. ”

Seeing that Lin Baozhu was happy, the master was also relieved, and after thinking about it, he said: "This workshop was originally a tea workshop renovation of Zhou Ji, in fact, there is a small tea garden behind it, but even if the tea garden is taken care of, the tea trees are full of insect pests, which is very bad." If Mrs. wants to buy the workshop, the tea garden should only be given to Mrs. for free, no matter what she is looking for someone to do, it is also good. Then there is the house where the cooked grain is dried, and there are many new and unused things, if the lady wants to use them, they will be given to them together. As for the price, is one hundred and eighty taels of silver good? ”

One hundred and eighty taels of silver is not expensive on the boundaries of the county seat, but it is not cheap, but if a small tea garden is added, it is not unacceptable. In fact, compared to those guys in the workshop, Lin Baozhu is most interested in the tea garden full of insect pests in the mouth of the master's family.

She thought for a while, and then said, "I wonder if you can let me see the tea garden before deciding?" ”

"This is naturally okay, there is nothing to do now, I will take my wife to see it myself." So saying, the man got up and hurried ahead to lead the way.

To tell the truth, he is also desperate, just because he is in urgent need of money, but anyone who comes to inquire about the workshop is a ruthless bargain. There were even people who had paid thirty taels of silver, and they all refused to arrange for men to work in the workshop.

If it was just for the money, he could reluctantly accept it. But those guys who were born were those who followed him when he was in trouble, and it was not easy to start from scratch, and many times there was no way to pay wages on time, but the guys didn't care. Now he can leave as long as he sells the workshop and gets the money, but what about the guys? If you lose your job, your family will have less income, if that's the case, wouldn't you be miserable by his old club!

Not to mention how the owner of the workshop is entangled in his heart, just say that Lin Baozhu has already pulled the big girl and shopkeeper Li to the tea garden that the master said.

The tea plantation is not very large, and it is the size of six rows of tea trees. Under the light of the sun, it is fresh and verdant, and it also exudes a faint taste of bitter tea.

Lin Baozhu approached and saw that the tea tree had grown one or two buds, but it was not the time to pick. But before she could reach out and pick a piece, she suddenly saw a small flying insect fluttering up, and almost all the leaves were occupied by this small cyan insect.

She was startled at first, but when she saw the insects and the tea leaves that had been bitten and sucked, she suddenly felt ecstatic. And this kind of ecstasy is what I didn't have when I discovered the ancient tea tree of Eagle Tea, that is, the mood when I first confirmed the mother plant of the white cockscomb tea, which can be slightly compared.

The workshop owner's family saw that Lin Baozhu's expression had changed, and his heart was also stunned. Thinking of his wife, she is also a clean-loving person, not to mention seeing so many flying insects on weekdays, even if you see any mosquito, you have to scrub for a while. He looked at Lin Baozhu's dress, and then looked at the beautiful and clean face of the child next to her, and secretly regretted in his heart, he didn't have to mention any tea garden or tea garden, I'm afraid that this business will have twists and turns again.

After a moment's thought, the owner explained: "There are mountains near here where sugar cane and mulberry trees are grown, so they cause a lot of dust, but as long as the tea garden is cleared, there will not be so many insects." After all, we are here to work, and we are outside the city, so you will inevitably see some pests and the like. ”

"You're saying it's really dust?"

"Yes, this pest is not uncommon in us, but there are many in any orchard or field. However, there were people who had weekly notes to take care of it before, so there was never such a serious time. Later, the workshop fell into my hands, and because I didn't need this place, I never let anyone repair it, and now I came to find that the good garden has been eaten by insects. As he spoke, the master also showed a look of annoyance, knowing that he should have shoveled this place a few days ago when he was going to sell the workshop.

He was full of regret and chagrin. However, Lin Baozhu didn't think about the mood of the master's house, she was carefully picking off a young bud, first put it in the palm of her hand and sniffed it, and the buds and leaves that had been bitten by the floating dust, that is, the little green leafhopper, exuded a faint unique aroma.

She carefully twisted the buds and leaves with her hands, Rao didn't put it in her mouth and tasted it, but she could also feel the unique charm of this oriental beauty tea.

The so-called Oriental Beauty Tea, in fact, is Baihao Oolong Tea, which is made by hand-picking buds and leaves that have been bitten and smoked by floating dust. Different from the tea next to it, the tea quality of this tea, in addition to the tea-making technology, the most important thing is to depend on the degree of biting of the small green leafhopper, in the previous life, how many tea gardens in order to attract this small insect did not dare to apply pesticides and did not dare to take care of the tea garden carefully, partial life, how many tea farmers have never asked for a place like this to let the little green leafhopper gather.

Speaking of which, the origin of Oriental Beauty Tea is that after Chinese tea was exported to the United Kingdom, it was presented to Queen Victoria by tea merchants, and after the queen tasted it, she was full of praise and was deeply attracted by its special tea aroma. At that time, the queen felt that the tea was mellow and sweet, and it was more pleasant than other teas. In addition, after the tea leaves are washed away, they are like flowers, and the tea soup is yellow and clear, but it is like a bright amber color, so it is given the name Oriental Beauty Tea.

Because there are very few teas on the market, even she has tasted and made them many times as the inheritor of a tea-making family. For ordinary tea makers, even if they are extremely poor, they may not be able to encounter such salivating tea in their lifetime.

Lin Baozhu smelled the unique smell produced by the saliva of the little green leafhopper mixed with the enzyme of the tea itself, and he didn't know what expression to show for a while. This is definitely more precious than the white cockscomb tea, and even more rare.

Because it is different from the spring, summer, autumn and winter stubble tea of white cockscomb tea, this tea can generally only be picked on the hot summer day, and it must be sucked by the small green leafhopper, and the entire young buds and leaves must be at least 4,000 pieces to make a pound of tea.

What's more, the unique process of tea master Lin when making beauty tea, which everyone doesn't know, is that after roasting the green, he will use an extra cloth wrap to moisten and then have one more fermentation process. Therefore, not to mention that people nowadays don't know how valuable the tea that has been bitten by insects is, even if they do, Lin Baozhu is not worried that others can use the general tea-making process to make a better finished product than making their own tea.

She looked at the scale of the tea plantation, which was not comparable to Zhang Ji's tea mountain, but it could be regarded as a workshop. The area of the tea factory is not large, but the tea trees planted are at the right distance, and according to her speculation, there is no problem in picking one season of beauty tea every year. This stubble, although it is not much, but a hundred catties of tea green with one bud and two leaves is enough.

Zhang Ji now has white cockscomb tea and eagle tea, and even many noble families outside will ask about it. And the white cockscomb tea is even more famous because the two royal highnesses Rui Wang and Xiaoyao Wang have tasted it.

Now if he talks about anything else, Lin Baozhu doesn't dare to boast, but if he talks about the way and means of trading, Zhang Ji is not much worse than other tea shops. In fact, if it weren't for the current shortage of tea, Zhang Ji would not have the ability to open a shop in the capital with her backers for the time being, but I am afraid that she would have already moved to pave the way to the capital in the state city.

Looking at the tea green in his hand, Lin Baozhu had a vague idea in his heart, but this idea was not clear yet.

Back then, beauty tea could be dedicated to Queen Victoria, so now, it may not be able to be dedicated to the ladies of the Great Zhou and the proud daughters of the sky. Of course, it's too early to say that, after all, it's not summer yet, and even if you have to pick it, it will take some time for the shoots to grow.

Because of this surprising discovery, coupled with the feeling that the workshop owner is kind and a filial son, he did not bargain, and signed the purchase and sale documents with one hundred and eighty taels of silver. After that, the master and the shopkeeper Li went to the county government to enter the book and make a grade, and since then a few miles east of the county seat, together with the tea garden and workshop that originally belonged to Zhou Ji, the signboard of Zhang Ji was hung up.
