Chapter 41 The Great Zhou people do not deceive the Great Zhou people

"Please sit down, I'll make you tea." Li Fan hurriedly welcomed people into the living room.

"I came to visit today without prior notice, and I bothered me." When King Fufeng entered the living room, his eyes flickered, but he saw that Li Fan just boiled a pot of boiling water, held a jar, and brought some porcelain, and he didn't mean to boil tea at all, so he couldn't help frowning!

Although this man proposed the Grace Order, he was too arrogant! Although he is just a down-and-out county king, he is also a king no matter how he says it, is he making tea? This is perfunctory!

King Fufeng wanted to leave on the spot.

Li Fan glanced at his eyes and found that his father-in-law's face was wrong, and then looked at the tea pot in his hand, and immediately understood, and said with a smile: "This is the tea that Li has just fried in the past two days, which is different from ordinary boiled tea, and will be tasted by the king of the county later." ”

In this era, people drank tea by boiling, specifically crushing the tea leaves into minced pieces to make tea balls, mashing the tea when drinking, and then adding spices such as green onions, ginger, orange peel, mint, dates and salt to decoction together.

The brewed tea is not even called tea, but tea soup.

Previously, Li Fan hadn't figured out the method of stir-frying tea, so he could only drink tea soup, and he only got the tea out when he was free in the past few days.

The method of making tea is also very simple.

First, put the tea leaves that have been exposed to the sun into a wok and fry them until soft, then take them out to cool, rub the tea leaves with your hands to make them shrink, and then put them in the wok again and fry them until the color of the tea leaves becomes darker, and wait for the tea leaves to cool and it will be successful.

And for tea, you use a covered bowl.

The king of Fufeng frowned, and saw Li Fan put the curled black tea leaves into the bowl, brewed them with boiling water, and then poured out the first tea, and then poured the second boiling water.

"This tea can't even be boiled, can it be delicious?" King Fufeng said suspiciously, he felt that Li Fan didn't want to entertain him and take it out casually.

Li Fan smiled and said, "The king of the county might as well try it, I can guarantee that this taste is definitely something that the king of the county has never drunk." ”

Li Fan is very confident that the tea he makes may not have the fragrance made by those masters in his previous life, but in this era, he can definitely kill the kind of tea soup made with various ingredients.

The king of Fufeng County picked up the bowl in disbelief, opened it and saw that a good fragrance permeated the air, which instantly made his brows stretch slightly.

Although this tea aroma is not strong, it is more pure, and there is no miscellaneous flavor in the usual tea soup.

Look at the bowl again, the tea is yellow and clear, and the tea leaves are stretched out, as if they have just been picked, and even the leaf pattern can be seen clearly.

"This ...... How does this tea look like it has just been picked? King Fufeng couldn't help but widen his eyes, just now he clearly saw Li Fan take out the black tea leaves from the can, and now it turned cyan when soaked in water.

He took a sip of the bowl, and in an instant, a slightly bitter sweetness poured into his mouth, and the rich aroma of tea hit his nose.

Swallowing the tea into the throat is even more fragrant.

"Good tea, good tea, although it is not as strong as tea soup, but it retains the original taste of tea, this tea is really delicious!"

The more King Fufeng drank it, the more addicted he became, "Baron Li, can you give me some of this tea?" ”

The king of Fufeng County couldn't help blushing a little, and he actually asked the junior for tea.

But this tea is so delicious!

I don't know how many times better than those tea soups.

Li Fan was happy in his heart, in his previous life, to please his father-in-law was to send tea, but he didn't expect that in this life he also sent tea: "Yue ...... If the king wants to drink, I'll give you two catties. ”

So saying, he went back to the back room and took out two jars.

"Haha, then thank you."

The title of the king of Fufeng County was also changed from Baron Li to virtuous nephew, which invisibly brought the relationship closer.

"The king of the county is polite, and after the king of the county finishes drinking, let people tell me, I will send you to the house." Li Fan thought that it was time to take advantage of this time to please his father-in-law.

The king of Fufeng looked at Li Fan and was secretly grateful in his heart, although his status as the king of the county was greater than that of the baron, but Li Fan's talent was praised by His Majesty, and his future was at least a scholar.

And he is just a down-and-out powerless little county king.

Originally, he thought that Li Fan would be arrogant, but he didn't expect it to be so peaceful and speak so well!

This tea was enjoyed by both the guests and the hosts.

"King Jun, should we cooperate in a tea business?" Li Fan said suddenly.

Tea business? The king of Fufeng County was stunned for a moment, and then thought that this tea was delicious, if it was a tea business, it would definitely be popular, but he didn't know how much inventory Li Fan had, and asked: "How much tea is there in Li Xianzai?" ”

Li Fan shook his head, "I only have seven or eight catties in my hands now." ”

Hearing this, the King of Fufeng County immediately frowned, but Li Fan's next sentence made him look moved: "However, now that I have basically mastered the method of making tea, I can make as much as I want." ”

The king of Fufeng County said: "How much can this tea be made?" ”

With the fragrance of this tea, I'm afraid it will take a long time, right?

Li Fan smiled faintly and said: "It takes a lot of time to dry, fry the tea and pick off the miscellaneous leaves, and it will take at least ten hours to make a hundred catties of tea!" ”

King Fufeng's eyes widened, can he make a hundred catties in ten hours? With the quality of this tea, the king of Fufeng County dares to guarantee that if he gives it to the magnates, he can sell it for at least ten taels of silver per catty!

Li Fan looked at the expression of the King of Fufeng County and knew that he also saw a business opportunity. Said: "Now in autumn and winter, there is little tea, fresh tea is almost seven dollars a pound outside, and ten pounds of fresh tea from drying, to frying and drying, in the end there will only be about two catties left, I thought about it, if this tea can be sold in Zijing City, one or two tea can be sold for a hundred taels of silver!" Pure profit can be more than 100 times earned! And this is still autumn and winter, and when it comes to spring, that is when the tea leaves are the most, and the tea leaves at that time are more fresh and tender, the tea made will be more fragrant, and the price can be increased again, and it is not a problem to sell one or two for one hundred and fifty taels of silver. ”

The king of Fufeng County was stunned when he heard this, and he was very obedient, and he sold it for a hundred taels of silver for one tael?

Doesn't that mean that the two cans of tea in my hand are worth two thousand taels of silver?

Li Fan continued to smile and said, "King of the county, how do you think about it?" Do you want to work with me? You take 1,000 taels of shares, I will give you 20% of shares, we will make the tea bigger and stronger together, and ensure that you can earn more than 100,000 taels a month by dividends, and you can return to your capital in a month! ”

A thousand taels of silver is only two shares?

King Fufeng frowned, hesitating.

Li Fan said: "Alas, what's there to hesitate about? You can't buy a thousand taels and you can't be fooled at a loss, not to mention that your son-in-law can still lie to you? ”

Li Fan felt that he was sending money to the king of Fufeng County, and this tea did not need to be thought about, it would definitely be popular in the future.

Receiving him 1,000 taels is the meaning, and everyone else will get 10,000 taels.

King Fufeng didn't hear the last sentence clearly, he was still a little hesitant, the most important thing was that when he thought of the tigress at home, his scalp was a little numb, and he wanted some pocket money on weekdays, but the tigress refused, how could the tigress take out a thousand taels of silver to do tea business?

The King of Fufeng County said: "Nephew Li Xian, you still let me go back and think about it first, and I will give you an answer as soon as possible." ”

Li Fan didn't force it anymore, nodded and said: "Hey, okay, after all, we have only met for the first time, think about it after the king of the county goes back, this is definitely a good project to make money, we Da Zhou people don't lie to Da Zhou people!" ”

King Fufeng was a little moved in his heart.

Look, how good it is, the people of the Great Zhou don't lie to the people of the Great Zhou!
