Chapter 286: Centennial Tea Tree.

Zhejiang Province, Hangzhou City, Taoyuan Commune, Chenjia Village.

In order to save a sum of money for accommodation, Chen Xiaoping got up every day before the chickens crowed, walked more than 20 kilometers to the commune to go to school, and walked home for three hours after school.

Since March, the first thing she does when she comes home is to ask her father, who has limited mobility, if any guests have been in the house.

No.

Aside from this answer, my father didn't know what to say.

Silent and honest, he didn't know how to comfort his daughter, so he could only work harder to weave bamboo baskets, trying to save up for his daughter's tuition for the next year, so that he could buy her an extra pen and a book.

He was also happy and excited about the "nobleman" in his daughter's mouth at first.

But in the intervening months, no news has been heard, and since March, no one has come to the door.

I'm afraid that the nobles have long forgotten it, after all, it is just some tea leaves that can't be put on the table......

Although Chen Xiaoping's father, Chen Guimao, did not have much expectations, his place of work was moved from the entrance of the hall to the entrance of the courtyard.

Their house is built on the mountainside, and if someone comes, they can hear movement at the gate of the courtyard.

In this way, Chen Guimao pricked up his ears while weaving a bamboo basket with his ten fingers, paying attention to the movement outside, and sat for several hours.

The bamboo tube for drinking water and the two black-flour steamed buns for lunch are placed next to the chair, and you can reach them with your hand.

From morning to afternoon, if it weren't for going to the toilet, Chen Guimao wouldn't leave the hospital gate at all.

"Fifth uncle, fifth uncle!"

The captain's loud voice was very penetrating, and before the person appeared, the voice arrived first.

Listening to the shouting at the end, there was a faint sense of joy, could it be ......

Chen Guimao hurriedly put down the half-woven basket in his hand, stood up with the back of the chair, and limped out of the courtyard gate quickly.

The captain wore a dark blue forward hat and talked enthusiastically to the two people next to him, and behind them were several men of different heights, fat and thin, with tools on their bodies.

Seeing Chen Guimao standing not far away, the captain immediately quickened his pace and trotted forward, "These guests are here to see the tea trees at your house!" said that Xiaoping had made an appointment with them before! ”

While speaking, the captain attached himself to Chen Maogui's ear, and whispered very quickly: "They are all by bicycle!" O nobleman! ”

As for who is coming?

Of course, it was Huang Qiong who was contacted by Ji Huai'an.

After he "washed his hands in a golden basin", at the suggestion of Ji Huai'an, he found his daughter-in-law's village, a public-private partnership, and set up a small tea factory.

Because of the wide road and many friends before, the tea from the factory was sent to other people's factories as employee benefits.

Ji Huai'an also helped to pull the strings and sold his tea to other provinces and cities with his connections, for Huang Qiong, Ji Huai'an is his iron brother, his own brother-like existence.

The younger brother speaks, and the younger brother-in-law is in need, so what else is there to say.

He directly brought a few masters hired by his factory with a lot of money, and a few good brothers who pressed the formation, and went straight to Chenjia Village without saying a word.

"Shhh...... These tea trees ...... It's been a hundred years! ”

A group of masters gathered in the open space on the left side of Chen Guimao's courtyard, looked around the twelve tea trees, touched the leaves, looked at the trunks, and their eyes were full of amazement.

"It will take at least two or three hundred years to grow like this! It's so rare......"

"I went to Shifeng Mountain once when I was younger, and these ...... It's not worse than that imperial tea! ”

The eldest master carefully picked a young leaf, twisted a little and put it in his mouth, closed his eyes and felt it carefully, and after a while, sighed: "Top! ”

Seeing this, the others took the small leaf from his hand and divided it, and also gave "top" evaluations.

Huang Qiong and the others didn't disturb the masters, sitting not far away, drinking the tea handed by Chen Guimao.

At this distance, they couldn't hear the conversation of the masters.

But Huang Qiong is a shrewd person, he doesn't need to listen, just by looking at their movements and expressions, he already understands the value of these tea trees.

"Your daughter told you, we came here to pick tea." Huang Qiong put down the bamboo cup and said to Chen Guimao, who was cramped on the side.

"I've said it, I know it!"

"Just know, I also took a look at the tea tree, and I took care of it very well. The price of this tea ......"

Chen Guimao swallowed his saliva, thinking that Huang Qiong was going to lower the price, but it didn't feel like it when he looked at it, so he whispered: "Is it okay to pay the price according to Xiaoping's last time?" Three pieces of a pound ......"

As if he felt that he was opening his mouth, he quickly added: "Fried!" ”

Countrymen drink tea, where will they know what to do before the Ming Dynasty and before the rain, and the tea that Ruan Jiaojiao wants, when the time comes, there may not be two taels in total.

Three dollars a pound, he really ......

Huang Qiong understood Chen Maogui's eagerness, and she didn't mean to bully honest people.

He patted Chen Guimao on the shoulder, "Brother Chen, don't worry, we will definitely ask for this tea, and the price will not make you suffer." As for me, I made such a trip for my brother and daughter-in-law, who had bought tea from your daughter before, and she liked the taste very much. So, what is the price this time, I will first go and tell my brother and sister-in-law about the situation of your tea trees, and then tell you the price. In the end, it must be higher than three pieces a catty, which you can rest assured. ”

"Oh, that's good, thank you, that's good!" Chen Guimao breathed a sigh of relief and thanked him again and again.

The captain on the side listened to the conversation between the two, thinking about three yuan and a catty, and he couldn't stop envious in his heart.

Those tea trees look good, and the leaves are added together, how about twenty or thirty catties, he, the fifth uncle, looks like he is really famous!

However, envy is envy, the captain has no dark thoughts at all, and he is sincerely happy for Chen Xiaoping's father and daughter.

He, the fifth uncle, has a total of two people in the family, not to mention earning work and saving money, but at the end of the year, he had to fight a famine, and he owed the brigade work.

Some time ago, the fields were divided into households, and their family drew the worst fields, and it was very difficult.

It's okay now, as long as you take care of these tea trees, you don't have to worry about food and clothing in the future, and you don't have to worry about my cousin's tuition.

Maybe his cousin can really be admitted to college and be the golden phoenix of their Chenjia Village!

The more the captain thought about it, the happier he became, and his mouth opened involuntarily.

The captain's thinking was a little off, and he didn't know that Ruan Jiaojiao only needed those two taels of tea, and he didn't know that the leaves in the later issues were only a few catties.

But the conclusion is indeed correct, the father and daughter of the Chen family really don't have to worry about money in the future.

There is such a cash cow, not to mention worrying about food and clothing to earn tuition, in the future, it is okay to wear gold and silver, live in a villa and drive a sports car!

It can be seen that there is a powerful, far-sighted ancestor, how happy!
