On the outskirts of Xin'an City, military camp.

Xu Xiaoxiao sat in the carriage and lifted the curtain and saw that the carriage had slowly entered the barracks.

I had always heard Chu Qing mention the matter of the military camp, but she had never been there, and she was quite nervous when she came to the military camp for the first time.

The barracks were bigger than she had imagined, heavily guarded, officers and soldiers patrolling the camp in an orderly manner, and carriages stopped in front of the manger.

Zhao Kai jumped out of the carriage and came to her, carefully helping her out of the carriage.

At this time, Wang Duo came from not far away and was shocked to see Xu Xiaoxiao appear in the barracks.

"Little girl, why are you here?"

"When I heard that Westerners were coming, I was a little curious and wanted to come and have a look." After Xu Xiaoxiao got out of the carriage, he looked around and suddenly felt a little embarrassed, "Shouldn't I come?" ”

"No, let's go, the prince just said that he wanted you to come to the barracks, and he also intended to let you meet Western merchants." Wang Duo smiled and waved his hand, leading Zhao Kai and Xu Xiaoxiao towards the conference hall.

They walked around the large tents and stopped in front of a rather rudimentary tent, where Wang Duo lifted the curtain.

"Little girl, Lord Zhao, go in, the prince has been waiting for you."

Xu Xiaoxiao entered the tent with apprehension, and when he entered, he saw a long table with chairs and stools neatly arranged around the long table.

Chu Qing and four Westerners wearing white robes and holding turbans on their heads walked out of the back room, all of them had a pair of blue eyes, a high nose bridge, and a neat and lush beard.

When she walked to the lobby, Chu Qing was stunned at first when she saw Xu Xiaoxiao, and then smiled and led the Western businessman to her.

"Lord Earl, this is Little Miss Xu."

The earl looked at her for a while, Xu Xiaoxiao smiled and bowed to her, and Xu Xiaoxiao also blessed her body gracefully.

Chu Qing sat at the long table with a few people, and the Western businessmen couldn't wait to start making appeals.

"Lord Wang, this time I came here with full sincerity."

"Count, what do you need this time?" Chu Qing smiled and handed over a cup of good Longjing tea.

"We need tea, cotton." The Earl took the tea and put it on the tip of his nose and sniffed it, his face changed abruptly, his eyebrows furrowed, and he was dissatisfied with the dragon well in the cup.

"What kind of tea is this? It's so unpleasant. The official beside the earl spat out the tea and angrily laid the cup on the table.

The Earl looked at the official with a cold face, and the official immediately closed his mouth after giving him a cold look.

"This is a good dragon well." Wang Duo said distressed as he watched the tea being poured out.

This dragon well is still treasured by the prince for a long time, if it weren't for the arrival of distinguished guests, he wouldn't be able to drink it on weekdays.

"Shut up, I'm really sorry, it's because we didn't entertain well." Chu Qing slanted Ni and scolded Wang Duo behind him, and apologized with a smile.

Xu Xiaoxiao sat and looked at Chu Qing's rather embarrassed appearance, she couldn't help but get annoyed, she got up and walked out of the tent, found a corner where no one was, and turned her wrist to take out the best Tieguanyin from the space.

She took Tieguanyin and wanted to find a place to boil water, but Zhao Kai followed her after finding out that she was leaving.

"Little girl, why did you come out, you can't run around in the barracks." Zhao Kai gasped and said.

Xu Xiaoxiao said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I can't get used to seeing the disrespect of Westerners to the prince, so I want to find a place to boil water and brew the tea leaves in my hand." ”

"Do you have tea?" Zhao Kai asked in surprise.

"Well, look." Xu Xiaoxiao nodded and handed the tea wrapped in oiled paper in his hand to Zhao Kai.

Zhao Kai took the oil paper, put it on the tip of his nose and smelled it, "It's so fragrant, this is an excellent tea." ”

"I only have this little bag, you can hold it." Xu Xiaoxiao pretended to be distressed, and stretched out his hand to use the fallen tea residue.

She took out the tea from the space this time, and if she didn't say that the tea was precious, she was afraid that it would attract unwarranted suspicion.

Zhao Kai closed the oil paper with a smile, "Let's go, let's go in and rush." ”

Xu Xiaoxiao nodded and followed behind Zhao Kai, and the two re-entered the tent.

"Lord Wang, there is still a bag here that you forgot?" Zhao Kai handed the wrapped tea to Chu Qing.

Chu Qing took it blankly, and then opened the oil paper, a fragrance wafted out of the tea leaves, and the earl looked at the tea leaves in the oil paper curiously.

"It's very fragrant, can you try it?" The Count picked up the tea residue from the table and put it in his mouth and tasted it, and a satisfied smile immediately appeared on his face.

The official sitting on the side also picked up a few grains from the table and tried them, his pupils dilated instantly, and he nodded again and again, "There is sweetness in the astringency." ”

When Chu Qing heard this, he immediately handed over the tea leaves to Wang Duo, who took them with both hands, came to the tea stove to filter the tea leaves, and washed the tea.

After some manipulation, the fragrant tea wafted out of the teapot, and he poured it on the cup in front of the earl and the officials.

The earl and the officials couldn't wait to try it, and the corners of their mouths couldn't help but rise.

"Lord Wang, we have to place an order to buy this tea."

Chu Qing took a cup blankly and tried it, the taste was sweet, there was no bitterness, and there was still a fragrance in his mouth after drinking.

"This .....," he squeezed his eyes at Zhao Kai in embarrassment.

The earl put down the teacup with a smile, "Lord, you can't supply us with a big country." ”

Xu Xiaoxiao originally just wanted to help Chu Qing earn back face, and didn't want to sell tea, but when she heard the earl's sarcastic words, she couldn't help it.

"No problem."

Chu Qing looked at Xu Xiaoxiao patting his chest blankly and guaranteeing, he hurriedly got up, "That, let's discuss this matter again, it's better to eat first, you guys are hungry after a long journey." ”

The Earl nodded in agreement, "Okay, don't worry, we still have to stay for a while, then rest for a while and discuss it tomorrow." ”

Wang Duo led the count out of the tent with interest.

After the curtain of the tent fell, Chu Qing couldn't hold it anymore, and he strode forward to look at Xu Xiaoxiao.

"Tea, can you really grow tea?"

He didn't question Xu Xiaoxiao, but questioned whether the soil like Xin'an City could grow tea.

I heard that planting requires fertile and moist soil to grow good tea, and the planting time of tea is extremely long, and it takes at least three or four years for ordinary tea seedlings to have tea cores after they are put into the soil.

It is impossible for Westerners to plant for such a long time.

Xu Xiaoxiao was stunned by the question, she pursed her lips and approached Chu Qing and whispered, "I have a fairyland to plant." ”

Chu Qing stood stunned and pondered for a moment, "I'll talk about this later." ”

"Zhao Kai, send the little girl home."

Zhao Kai responded blankly, and then the two got into the carriage together.

The carriage was moving quickly on the road, Zhao Kai's mouth opened and closed, and the words in his heart were never spoken.

"Lord Zhao, do you have something to ask?" Xu Xiaoxiao was thinking about how to grow tea, and when he looked up, he looked at Zhao Kai's embarrassed expression.

Zhao Kai pondered for a moment, "Little girl, why don't you compare yourself to the limelight." ”
