Chapter 12 Cloud Mountain Tea

"The thirteenth battalion has orders, and the captain of the third battalion, Xu Chong, and the centurion Qin Hong listen to the orders!" the herald shouted.

Immediately, everyone's eyes focused on Qin Hong and Xu Chong.

"The last general will obey the order!"

Qin Hong and Xu Chong knelt on one knee at the same time.

"At the invitation of Wanbao Firm, I will specify that Qin Hong, the centurion of the third sub-battalion of the thirteenth battalion of our army, will undertake the escort task of Wanbao Firm, this task is more difficult, and several other centurions need to cooperate to complete it, please Captain Xu Chong personally supervise, please Captain Qin rush to Wanbao Firm in Falling Star City today to discuss specific matters, and the task will start tomorrow!"

Both of them were secretly surprised in their hearts, they didn't expect that as soon as they entered the barracks, an escort mission would be issued, and they asked Qin Hong to carry out this mission by name.

"The last will be ordered!"

Qin Hong and Xu Chong got up and responded.

"Since Lord Dutong meant, then you should go to Falling Star City now!" Xu Chong glanced at Qin Hong, and there was a strange light flashing in his eyes.

Qin Hong nodded, commanded the team a few words, and then brought the Wulin horse, and rode straight towards Falling Star City.

When Qin Hong walked through the city gate, the soldiers guarding the city gate showed a hint of strangeness.

Wanbao Commercial Bank in Falling Star City, Qin Hong has already been to it once, and the second time he went, he was already familiar with the road, and soon came to Wanbao Commercial Bank.

At the door of Wanbao Commercial Bank, there was a pair of young men and women standing, and when they saw Qin Hong, one of the women stepped forward and asked, "Is it Master Qin?"

Qin Hong was slightly stunned, and then nodded.

"Elder Qin, Elder Zhao asked us to wait for you again, now please follow us upstairs, Elder Zhao will discuss with you in detail about this escort. The young and beautiful woman said neither humbly nor arrogantly.

A white-bearded old man suddenly appeared in Qin Hong's mind, it was Elder Zhao Yanshan Zhao of Wanbao Commercial Bank, smiling slightly, Qin Hong followed the pair of young men and women into Wanbao Commercial Bank, and went up to the fourth floor, Zhao Yanshan was looking at a picture scroll, seeing Qin Hong coming, Zhao Yanshan hurriedly withdrew his gaze and greeted Qin Hong with a smile.

"Master Qin, don't come unharmed!" Zhao Yanshan said with a smile.

"Elder Zhao, you're polite!" Qin Hong returned the salute.

"Come, please follow me to the tea room, the old man recently got a bag of good tea, which was brought to the old man by a friend who came back from Yanzhou!" Zhao Yanshan said this, his eyes flashed with excitement, obviously very interested in this bag of tea.

"Yanzhou's tea, is indeed quite prestigious, my Youzhou climate is too bitter cold, the taste of the tea produced is too bitter, Yanzhou and Jingzhou's tea are good, of which Jingzhou tea is mostly sold to Mongolia and other places, and Yanzhou's tea is mostly sold domestically. From this, it can be seen that Yanzhou's tea is still better!" Qin Hong said.

"I didn't expect Brother Qin to have a lot of research on tea! Come, please take a seat!" Zhao Yanshan led Qin Hong into a tea house.

This tea house, antique, hanging on the four walls of a very good ink painting, most of which are mainly landscape paintings, in the middle of the house is displayed a tea table, as well as various utensils and tools for making tea, in the air, there is a faint fragrance of tea.

Qin Hong and Zhao Yanshan sat on both sides of the tea table, and after a while, a woman walked in from outside the house, when this woman saw Qin Hong, she was obviously stunned, especially the black armor on Qin Hong's body, which made her look a few more times, Qin Hong was talking about the tea ceremony with Zhao Yanshan, so he didn't move his eyes to this woman, so he didn't find that this person was Lu Shan who had had had with Qin Hong several times.

The first time I met Lu Shan was in Tongguan County, when Lu Shan was just a small shopping guide in Wanbao Commercial Bank in Tongguan County, Qin Hong was still an unknown hairy boy, Lu Shan wanted to encourage Qin Hong to buy a grandmaster spirit treasure, but Qin Hong finally only bought a Xuanbing that did not enter the stream, which made Lu Shan despise Qin Hong very much, and looked down on this poor bastard in his heart.

And the second time they met, it was in Falling Star City, Lu Shan was transferred to Falling Star City because of a little relationship in her family, what she didn't expect was that when she saw Qin Hong for the second time, Qin Hong already had the strength of the Xuanzong level, so young, he had such strength, even in Falling Star City, he could be regarded as a cultivator with excellent talent.

And this time they met, Qin Hong became a black-armored soldier, looking at the two gold lines on Qin Hong's chest, he knew that Qin Hong was not just an ordinary black-armored soldier, but a centurion, although he was only a centurion, he was already a figure with a face in Falling Star City.

Many things in life are so ingenious, and sometimes a person you originally looked down on, after experiencing the tempering of time, will make you constantly amazed at his ability.

"This kind of tea is called Yunwu Mountain Tea, produced from the top of Yanzhou Yunwu Mountain, growing on the stone wall, bathing in clouds and mist every day, washed by dew, and the tea fragrance is long and long when tasting, just like standing on the top of Yunwu Mountain, feeling the breath of clouds and mist!"

Qin Hong took a closer look, and suddenly felt that a tea fragrance spread throughout the mouth, this feeling is very wonderful, "It is indeed a good tea, tasting this tea, it is like standing in the embrace of nature, between heaven and earth, all kinds of mysterious qi surround the body, there are insects and birds chirping, white clouds and breeze, making people feel comfortable, and the mouth is fragrant......"

"If Elder Qin likes it, I'll cut my love and share it with you?" Zhao Yanshan said.

Qin Hong waved his hand again and again, and said, "Elder Zhao, how embarrassing is this, Qin is ashamed of it! In the future, if you have the opportunity, it is also a beautiful thing to visit Elder Zhao and taste this Yunwu Mountain Tea again......

"Huh...... What did Elder Qin say, Little Brother Qin and I hit it off at first sight and became friends for the New Year, what is this bit of tea? Lu Shan, fetch me half of the Yunwu Mountain Tea!" Zhao Yanshan said.

When Qin Hong heard this name, he felt quite familiar, so he looked up at this woman, and suddenly his ears moved, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"What, Little Brother Qin, do you know my apprentice?" Zhao Yanshan asked.

Qin Hong smiled and said casually, "I've just seen it a few times." ”

Hearing Qin Hong's words behind him, Lu Shan's body stiffened significantly, and her walking posture became a little unnatural.

"By the way, Elder Zhao, you still have to explain to me the specific matters of the escort mission!" Qin Hong said.

Zhao Yanshan nodded and said, "Little Brother Qin, this mission may be a bit difficult. ”

Glancing at Qin Hong and seeing that Qin Hong did not speak, Zhao Yanshan continued: "This time our task is to escort the three of them to the junction of Youyan, and after the matter is completed, there will be a reward of 600,000 taels of gold!"

"Six hundred thousand taels of gold!" Qin Hong couldn't help but move in his heart, "This is equivalent to six million taels of silver, such a large sum is by no means affordable for ordinary people." ”

"After the matter is completed, 600,000 taels of gold, my Wanbao Trading House and the Black Armor Army will be divided fifty-fifty!" Zhao Yanshan said.

Qin Hong nodded, this Zhao Yanshan is willing to tell himself the amount of remuneration, which has shown enough sincerity.

"Okay, Elder Zhao, hand over the basic information of the escort characters and the route map of the escort to me, I will study it carefully after I go back, is it tomorrow?" Qin Hong asked.

"Yes, we will set off in the early hours of tomorrow morning, on Fengyang Slope, ten miles outside the gate of Falling Star City. I'm going to get the road map and all the other information. Zhao Yanshan said, got up and walked to another room, and brought a jade slip after a while.

Qin Hong took the jade slip, looked at it with his divine sense slightly, nodded, and pocketed it.

"By the way, Elder Zhao, in addition, some of the medicinal herbs I entrusted you to pay attention to last time have been prepared?" Qin Hong asked.

Zhao Yanshan slapped his forehead and said suddenly: "Brother Qin, you look at my memory, if you don't say it, I forgot it, but I did inquire about the medicinal materials you wanted, and prepared some! I will let Lu Shan help you get them later!"

Just at this time, Lu Shan walked in, "Elder Zhao, this is half of the Yunwu Mountain Tea taken out of your tea box, about three taels!"

Zhao Yanshan nodded, and as a result, Lu Shan had a delicate green jade box in his hand, and he ordered Lu Shan to fetch Qin Hong's medicinal materials.

"Brother Qin, this Yunwu Mountain Tea is expensive in a fresh word, if it loses its freshness, the grade will be greatly discounted, with a box made of ice crystal jade, it can perfectly hold this Yunwu Mountain Tea, even if it is collected for three years, the tea leaves are still as if they have just been picked from the tree......" Zhao Yanshan said.

"Oh, this Yunwu mountain tea doesn't need to be dried and roasted......" Qin Hong secretly wondered in his heart, the general tea, but to be made into a grain of tea through a process, when making tea, stretch out, the tea fragrance will also be emitted, and this cloud mountain tea, actually directly picked from the tree into the water to make tea, such tea preservation and transportation is much more difficult, because of the requirement of fresh, so it is impossible to tann and compress into tea cakes and tea bricks like other teas, and large-scale transportation cannot be realized, so its price must be far beyond the ordinary tea.

Unveiled the green jade box in his hand, a faint white mist suddenly rose from the box, and the temperature in the box was obviously much lower than the outside.

"Brother Zhao, you have a heart!" Qin Hong said gratefully.

"Brother Qin, it's good if you like it!" Zhao Yanshan stroked the long beard on his chest with a smile, and then swept his gaze to Lu Shan who walked over.

In Lu Shan's hand, she was holding a bag tied up with yellow hemp paper, which looked quite heavy. Zhao Yanshan waved a hand, and the medicine bag fell in front of Qin Hong.

"Elder Zhao, how much gold are these medicinal herbs worth?" Qin Hong asked.

"Little Brother Qin, this is what I, Brother Zhao, gave to you at that time. Put it away, don't say how good!" Elder Zhao said.

"Okay!" Qin Hong saw Zhao Yanshan's serious look, and without prevarication, he grabbed it in his hand.

Seeing that Qin Hong happily accepted, Zhao Yanshan showed a satisfied smile on his face.

Qin Hong stood up, arched his hand towards Zhao Yanshan, and said, "In the future, if Brother Zhao needs Qin's help, even if he speaks, Qin will do his best." I still need to go back to the camp today to prepare, so I'm leaving."

"Okay, see you in Fengyang Slope in the early morning tomorrow!" Zhao Yanshan waved his hand.
