19 Chapter 19

Pei Su nodded indifferently, since someone had taken the matter over, she didn't think about it anymore.

She turned to look at the tea tree beside her: "Do you need my help with top dressing?" ”

After thinking about it, Pei Su added: "If you want to breed grain, you need at least two or three years, and at most five or six years to cross the shape, and the shape of the hybrid may not be able to be stably inherited...... It is best to go to Vietnam to find Zhancheng rice, planted in the south of the Huai River, and can be harvested three times a year. ”

"At present, I need 100 acres of fertile land, 20 old farmers, and it is better to have three or five more scholars to assist me." Pei Su listed a list of requirements without blinking an eyelid.

Pei Yun also blinked and leaned over: "I need a set of experimental containers, glass is the best, if there is no glass, then I need green and white jade, I also need high-concentration alcohol, you only need to provide wine, I will purify the alcohol." ”

Li Changan: "......"

That doesn't sound like a thing that can be done with ten taels of gold.

"No matter how poor you are, you can't be poor in scientific research." Pei Yun patted Li Changan's shoulder and said meaningfully.

Li Changan showed a smile that was more ugly than crying.

"Isn't it just a hundred acres of fertile land, I will buy it when I make money. There will be fields and hands, and there will be petri dishes and beakers of white marble......"

"The most important thing now is to fry the tea first, and only after selling the tea can I have the money to buy fields and jade materials." Li Changan said bitterly.

Pei Su showed a smile on his face: "If you do a good job of topdressing and watering, it is not difficult to produce fifty catties of dry tea per mu." ”

Li Changan shook his head, looked at the thirty acres of tea trees in front of him, and showed a sinister smile.

"No, now I'm very short of money, these tea trees are my hens that lay golden eggs, so I can't just blindly pursue production."

She has an idea that is more capable of robbing the rich and giving to the poor.

You can make a few dollars by selling tea, and you can make a lot of money by selling luxury goods!

"Teacher, can you invite more friends to come to this tea field in the past two months to go out and sing poems?" Li Changan said to Shen Chu.

Although Shen Chu didn't know what Li Changan was going to do, he still agreed.

Li Changan said to Pei Su and Pei Yun again: "I also have other arrangements for the two teachers......

The next day, the tea fields in the western suburbs, which originally belonged to the Great Ci'en Temple and now belonged to the mysterious buyers, welcomed its new cultivators.

The little girl who was thirty-six years old in cardamom wore coarse linen clothes, carried a flower basket made of wicker, and several brand-new bamboo tubes in the flower basket came to the tea field.

It was not until the day was completely dawn and the dew on the blades of grass had disappeared that the little girls returned to the tea field and poured all the dew collected from the bamboo tubes into the tea field.

In the afternoon, there are several scholars in white robes who come here on horseback, and they recite poems on the mountain breeze and the newly sprouted grass and trees all over the mountain, and there are even scholars with piano flutes and piano flutes on the peach trees on the side of the tea field, which is extremely elegant.

The western suburbs are the usual places for Chang'an people to go to the green on weekdays, and January and February coincide with a good time to go to the green, come and go, these strange things that happened on this tea field naturally attracted the attention of many people.

Zhao Cheng is a person who is very curious about this tea field, his family is in business, rich is rich, and his family wealth is said to be less, but his status is not too high, he can only rely on the children of the powerful to be a dog leg for them on weekdays, counting on them to be able to promote himself in the future, but he himself has no talent, and if he wants to please the powerful, he can only spend money, so he is very attentive to collecting strange things.

Three days ago, he and his family went on a trip together, passing by this tea field, and happened to bump into those little girls collecting dew in the bamboo tube, out of curiosity, Zhao Cheng sent his family members to go out, and he himself has been standing on the edge of the tea field to see what this group of people are busy with.

It is not uncommon for old farmers to farm, but it is the first time he has seen such a bright little girl farming together.

In this way, he came for three days in a row, and it was not until the fourth day that he finally waited for a lady who seemed to be able to call the shots to come, and out of some intuition of a businessman, Zhao Cheng felt that he should go and talk to that lady.

Pei Yun was inspecting the situation around the tea field - her sister didn't want to get involved in mundane things, and only focused on her scientific research, but fortunately, she didn't mind doing these things, and she occasionally took care of some administrative affairs when there was a shortage of people in the hospital before.

She had already noticed that there was a thief and a thief not far away who was squatting there early in the morning to peek at them, but Li Changan had already told her that there would definitely be onlookers, so let her leave it alone and let them watch.

It's just that now the thief is walking towards her, looking like he wants to ask about her things.

The corners of Pei Yun's mouth raised a slight arc, but fortunately, Li Changan had already expected it and had already taught her the words in advance.

"A certain surname is Zhao, a merchant who sells incense and candles in Chang'an City, dare to ask the lady's surname?" Zhao Cheng cautiously chatted with Pei Yun.

Pei Yun followed Li Changan's instructions, and did not look at people squarely, but just squinted at Zhao Cheng, and the four big characters of domineering were written all over his body.

"You can call me Pei Erniang." Pei Yun snorted lightly and looked at Zhao Cheng critically, Zhao Cheng did not miss the contempt in Pei Yun's eyes.

He didn't feel dissatisfied, but became more respectful.

This domineering posture coupled with this thunderous surname is the famous Hedong Pei family nine times out of ten.

The Pei family in Hedong is second only to the five surnames and seven wangs, and it is normal to be arrogant.

"These tea trees were planted by Pei Erniang? I want to buy some tea balls, I don't know if I can? Zhao Cheng didn't have no eyes to ask Pei Yun face-to-face if he was the Pei of the Pei family in Hedong, after all, it didn't hurt for him to be respectful.

Pei Yun glanced at Zhao Cheng and said lightly: "These tea trees were bought by a friend of mine from the Great Ci'en Temple, and they were planted by the masters of the Great Ci'en Temple. The water used to water the tea trees in my house is the dew collected by a young girl in the prime of cardamom with a fine green bamboo tube, and the dew does not stick to the mud or filth, but is the pure water condensed by heaven and earth. From time to time, there were literati and writers who recited poems and exchanged rhythms on the side of the trees, and these tea trees were impregnated with literary ......"

When Zhao Cheng heard Pei Yun say this, he immediately took a breath, and his gaze at the tea tree became reverent.

The masters of the Great Ci'en Temple planted it with their own hands, the cardamom girls collected the dew that was born to raise the dust for irrigation, and the literati were soaked in the culture, which is an ordinary tea tree, this is a treasure tree.

"My little friend said that the tea produced by these treasure trees is not worthy of ordinary people." Pei Yun finally ended the topic with this sentence, and turned around to leave.

Zhao Cheng's brain quickly turned.

He hurriedly took two steps forward to block Pei Yun's way, and said with a smile: "I know that people like Niangzi are not short of money, but Niangzi's family will definitely not be able to eat these acres of tea, wouldn't it be a waste if they were left until the next year?" I am willing to buy some treasure tea at the usual price of one tael, and I hope that the lady can be accommodating. ”

Pei Yun sneered: "Consistent money? This tea is as heavy as gold, and you, a businessman, think that you can buy it with money? ”

After saying that, he left without looking back, leaving Zhao Cheng alone to stand in place and be stunned.

“…… Equal weight with gold? "Zhao Cheng wanted to scold.

That wronged boss will exchange a tael of gold for a tael of teaballs? Although tea is expensive, it can't be compared with gold, tea trees grow tea every year, in the final analysis, it's just leaves, and no matter how expensive the native things are, they don't deserve to be linked to gold.

But Zhao Cheng looked at the tea tree, and then looked at the beautiful girls who were watering the tea tree with dew.

These girls are carefully selected by Li Changan, although their appearance is not beautiful, but they are better than each one with a round face, and they are comfortable to look at. At the age of twelve or thirteen, when she was just beginning to grow up, a young girl took a green bamboo tube and poured dew under the tea tree...... These tea trees were also planted by the masters of the Great Compassion and Grace Temple, who are well versed in Buddhism...... No fertilizer, no pollution......

Zhao Cheng suddenly felt that a tael of gold and a tael of tea was not too expensive.

Let's take a look at it in a few days, after all, it has just sprouted now, and it will take a while for it to grow into leaves.

Li Changan is not in the Daming Palace, she is now in the Xianyi Princess Mansion.

Princess Xianyi is currently Tang Xuanzong's favorite princess, and even the princess's closure has changed from 500 to 1,000 because of her, her mansion is naturally very magnificent, and even a plate in the mansion has not been consistently money-down.

She is not short of money, plus she has a plain and quiet temperament and likes to cultivate, so she is not keen on money.

However, she still had some friendship with the girl she recognized as her mother, so Li Changan invited her to do a small business together, and she did not refuse.

It's just to play with Li Changan, after all, it's his nominal half-sister.

He even promised Li Changan to organize a trip in the western suburbs of Chang'an, and praised the tea tree by the way.

Li Changan left Princess Xianyi's mansion satisfied.

The second step of hype, the celebrity effect, is done!

Within a few days, Princess Xianyi's frame was parked in the western suburbs of Chang'an along with the frames of several other ladies, although Princess Xianyi is not a high-profile character, but after all, she is now Emperor Xuanzong's favorite princess, and countless people are staring at her every move.

So, a few days later, Princess Xianyi personally praised the tea trees in the western suburbs of Chang'an for having a "clean atmosphere", and the news that these tea trees were planted by the master of the Great Ci'en Temple himself, watered with dew every day, and often contaminated with the atmosphere of literati and ink was also rapidly spread among the magnates.

When Zhao Cheng got the news, he sat in the hall at home and laughed.

Thanks to his knowledge, after chatting with Pei Erniang that day, he thought for a long time that this tea was suitable for gifts, and on the second day, he took all the cash he could take out to book eight taels of tea, and on the third day, he went again, and took the ten taels of gold he borrowed from a few friends and wanted to buy another ten taels, but Pei Erniang said that he would not sell it, and each family was limited to ten taels of tea......

Zhao Cheng felt that he had bought the right one, how much this tea was cherished, and it was not sold even if there were too many, this is a treasure with no price. Such a treasure is very suitable for discussing business by yourself and taking it out to fill the scene, or as a gift to give out.

Thinking of this, Zhao Cheng also sighed lightly, originally he thought that ten taels of tea was already a lot, but now after careful consideration, he found that it was used everywhere, but unfortunately he couldn't buy more.

This is the innocence of the people of the Tang Dynasty, poor Zhao Cheng didn't know that he had unknowingly stepped into the trap of "hunger marketing", only knew that he had bought a limited edition of tea, but he didn't know that the concept of limited edition itself was a means for Li Changan to cheat money.
