Chapter 177: Qinglou Talks

Chapter 177 Qinglou talks

Hu Wei didn't have much research on the tea ceremony, but he had watched people on TV before. To read the latest chapters, please lock in Aishang Novel Network biquge.info although he watched TV at that time, all he paid attention to were the beauties who made tea, this tea ceremony was just incidental to watch, and it came out at this time, but it was also decent, at least it wouldn't be in a hurry.

Under Renata's gaze, the faint fragrance of tea wafted from the clay pot in Hu Wei's hand, and it didn't take long to fill the entire room.

The fragrance of tea and the fragrance of beauty on Renata have made this already beautifully arranged wing room more elegant, and there is no trace of the unique charm of the green building.

"Did you learn to make tea before?" Renata finally couldn't help but ask. She had never seen several fancy techniques used by Hu Wei just now, and she felt very novel.

"Oh, I've seen people soak in it. Hu Wei divided the tea into small cups, pushed one of the cups in front of Renata and said, "Come, try it, how does it taste." I'm also fooling, and if it's not good, you can't scold me. ”

"Nana doesn't scold, I scold. A rough voice picked up Hu Wei's words. Along with the voice, there was a middle-aged man in his fifties, dressed in a staff robe.

Hu Wei looked over, his eyes rolled, and he quickly got up and said, "The last general has seen Lord Suarez." ”

The person who could walk into the room at this time, except for Suarez, Hu Wei couldn't think of anyone else. Before coming, Hu Wei had read Suarez's information and knew that this person did not like to wear military uniforms, but liked to dress up outside the staff and the like.

Hu Wei didn't guess wrong, the person who came was Suarez.

Suarez glanced at Hu Wei, waved his hand and said, "Don't be in a hurry to salute first, I want to see how my tea is going first." I'm the best red robe, two pieces of tea can change your clothes. ”

Suarez walked to the table as he spoke, seeing that the small pot of tea was missing a little bit, and his flesh was painful, and he exclaimed: "Ouch, my baby girl, you want Daddy's life, you actually stole so much from me." Ouch, it's so distressing. This tea only comes out of ten catties in three years, how can I live in the future? ”

Suarez said, reaching for the tea that had not yet had time to brew.

Renata's eyes were quick, and she grabbed the tea can before Suarez: "Dad, don't be so stingy, this tea was originally meant to be brewed, when is it not brewed." ”

Hu Wei listened to Renata's words on the side, why did he feel so awkward, thinking that it would sound much better to replace the word 'tea' with the word 'niu'.

"You can say it easily. Suarez sat down in a chair: "This tea won't be brewed and it will be ruined." You brew some of it yourself, forget it, and actually give it to the person who tried it, ouch, my tea. ”

As he spoke, Suarez reached for the tea that had been brewed by Hu Wei. This is not soaked yet, but it can't be wasted.

Hu worriedly said, I have become 'that who'. What kind of bird tea is this, the heartache is like that.

Everyone has a good one, Hu Wei is not a good tea person, so naturally he doesn't think this red robe tea is anything great. Just like some people can't understand that those drunkards can fight hard with others for a few glasses of wine.

"Huh?" Suarez took a sip and glared at Hu Wei.

Hu Wei was glared at by Suarez, and said that he wouldn't fight with me for a cup of tea. If that's the case, it's really called a bloody case caused by a cup of tea.

"You made this tea?" Suarez asked after looking at Hu for a long time.

"Ahh Hu Wei nodded. He couldn't guess what Suarez was trying to do, so he had to do it first.

Suarez asked again, "Are you a fool?"

"Ahh Hu Wei nodded again.

After asking two waste questions in a row, Suarez finally asked a relatively meaningful question: "How do you make this tea?"

Hu Wei replied: "It's just soaked in water." ”

"Not true. Suarez shook his head affirmatively, "You must have added something to the tea." ”

"Daddy" Renata listened to Suarez's words and became nervous. When Hu Wei was making tea just now, she kept watching it, and she didn't find that Hu Wei had added anything to the tea. Renata is afraid that Hu Wei wants to be bad for Suarez.

Suarez shook his head and said, "Don't worry, baby girl, this kid is not poisoned. He added some condiments to the tea to bring the bitterness of the tea over, making the tea taste more fragrant and pure.

Boy, tell you, what did you add to your tea?"

Hu Wei listened to Suarez's words, and then secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Suarez was right, he did add some things to the tea when he was making it just now.

It's not special, it's just a little salt. Drinking tea with a little salt is the habit of Hu Wei's unscrupulous master. Hu Wei has lived with his master since he was a child, and he has also developed this habit. Just now, when I was making tea, I habitually added some salt to it. He used the ring on his hand to add it directly, and of course Renata couldn't see it.

Just now, Hu Wei was afraid that Suarez was dissatisfied with this matter, but now it seems that he likes it very much. Fortunately, he likes it, otherwise he would have come up with a dead eye and let Hu Wei pay for it, only ten catties of tea have been produced in the past three years, and Hu Wei really doesn't know where to find him.

"Just add a little bit of this. Hu Wei secretly grabbed a little salt in his hand and gently sprinkled it on the table. Writing with salt instead of writing, I wrote the word 'salt'.

Writing with salt is a very common technique in the rivers and lakes, because salt is white enough and fine, and cheap, many people use it instead of white sand when they open their stalls. Writing and reciting poems on the ground can easily attract some onlookers.

"Salt?" Suarez looked stunned for a moment, then laughed, "Why didn't I think of it." Hahaha, okay, you immortal bird really has some ability, I like it. ”

As if he was afraid of a loss, Suarez drank three of the five cups of tea that Hu Wei had poured in a row, leaving only one cup for Hu Wei and Renata.

Seeing that Suarez was drinking so happily, Hu Wei also became curious about the tea, and tried to take a sip, but the result disappointed him. He didn't think there was any difference between this tea and the 'high age' of two dollars and a pound. Renata drank the difference, nodded and praised: "It is indeed more fragrant than before, and the aftertaste is longer." Hu Wei, how about you make another pot?"

When Suarez heard her baby daughter's words, her face jumped, and she quickly spoke: "Baby daughter, let's stop drinking tea, let's drink a bar instead." Drink and have fun. ”

Hu Wei also felt that drinking tea was not very interesting, and this heart-pounding drink was not as pleasant as drinking. Besides, he's already hungry.

The food and drinks were all prepared in advance, Renata snapped her fingers, and the door was pushed open again. Eighteen beautiful little girls brought the wine and food.

Suarez raised his glass first and said, "Come, Hu Wei, teach me a new way to drink tea for you today, and I will have a toast with you." ”

At this time, this Linxi Building was already full, and the sound of silk and bamboo from other wings, and the laughter of women, faintly, seemed to be nothing. It's the time when the lights are first lit up and drinking.

Hu Wei also hurriedly raised his glass and said, "I respect the Legion Commander." ”

"Good. Suarez laughed, dried the wine, and said angrily, "Happy." ”

Hu Wei also dried up the wine, put down the wine glass and said: "I heard that Jinsha Prefecture is under the rule of the army commander, the wind and rain are smooth, and the people are rich. When I saw it today, it was true, the prosperity of Huaxi City was no different from that of the imperial capital. ”

Suarez is most proud of his economic achievements, Hu Wei caught his itch this time, and said with a smile: "That's, this is my hard work for many years." How about it, if you are interested, you can move to my West China City, and I will give you a yard. ”

Don't look at Suarez's stinginess with tea, this will be generous. In a word, you have to give Hu Wei a house, which is called wealth.

Renata sat on the side and didn't drink. At this time, it was like a maid, pouring wine for two drinking men. If her admirers saw this, it would be impossible to pour wine for Suarez, and that would make sense. What kind of green onion is Hu Wei, who is also qualified to drink the wine poured by Renata?

Hu Wei smiled: "Thank you for your kindness, but I have no plans to move for the time being." ”

Suarez said: "Hahaha, then wait until you want to move." But then again, your Dongwang City is much worse than my Huaxi City. ”

Suarez's use of the phrase 'your cave city' proves that he is very aware of Hu's recent behavior. knew that Hu Wei had already taken Dong Wangcheng into his hands. Don't think that Suarez only loves business, until then, he was first and foremost the head of an army.

Hu Wei said confidently: "Now Dongwang City is not comparable to Huaxi City. However, I believe that in a few years, Dongwang City will be as prosperous as Huaxi City. ”

Hu Wei dared to say this, but he had confidence. If one qiē is shun, Dong Wang Cheng will have three economic agents: horses, karkistan weapons, and salt. In the past, Dongwang City could develop into a large city of 340,000 people just by relying on horses. Now that there are three major economic incomes, Hu Wei has enough confidence to develop Dongwang City.

"Well said, ambitious. Suarez clapped his hands and laughed: "Young people should have the domineering spirit of giving up on me." You kid is very temperamental to me, and if you have any difficulties in development, you can come to me at any time. If I can help, I will help you. ”

Suarez's words seem to be a momentary righteousness, but in fact he is deliberate. Although he only met Hu Wei for the first time today, he didn't know much about Hu Wei than Hu Wei himself.

Since Renata first mentioned Hu Wei in front of Suarez, Suarez has paid attention to Hu Wei. The sharpest thing about a businessman is his sense of touch. Suarez saw the problems of the empire earlier than anyone else. Chaos is coming, and one more friend is always better than one more enemy.

Hu Wei was waiting for Suarez's words, and hurriedly pushed the boat down the river and said: "It's not a secret, I came to Huaxi City this time to ask the commander of the army for help." ”

Hu Wei is thinking about how to tell Suarez about salt, he will not know how to seize the opportunity, and he will spend thirteen years in vain on the rivers and lakes.

Suarez's reaction to Hu Wei nodded secretly in his heart. Smart people just like to deal with smart people, and if Hu Wei doesn't even have this reaction, then he doesn't need to mention anything about reviving Dongwang City.

Suarez glanced at her baby daughter and asked, "What's the matter, you?" ”

Renata was also watching what Hu Wei was going to say. Just now Hu Wei said that when she was reviving Dong Wang City, her heart trembled slightly, and she didn't know why, she believed in her heart that Hu Wei had the ability to do it.

Hu Wei looked at Suarez, then at Renata, and said, "Here's how it happened."

In very brief words, Hu Wei expressed to Suarez his intention to do salt business with the Wolf Legion. However, he only said that he had salt in his hands, but he did not say the yield and source of salt in his hands.

After listening to Hu Wei's words, Suarez did not answer immediately, but thought for a while before he spoke: "The salt you said is the one you used just now." ”

Hu Wei nodded and said, "Yes, in terms of quality, there is absolutely no problem, and the purity is even higher than that provided by the empire." The price is only half of the market value. I don't know if the Legion Commander is interested. ”

Hu Wei is not urgent on the issue of selling salt. In business, the most important thing is not to show your hole cards to the other party. If you let the other party see that you are in a hurry to sell goods, then he will definitely find a way to pressure you.

This is true for doing business, and it is true for everything you do, and never letting your opponent know your hole cards is one of the key elements to win.

Suarez said: "You have salt in your hand, why don't you sell it to Baohuai City nearby, or other regions, and give it to me?"

When Hu Wei heard Suarez's words, he laughed: "Legion Commander, I'm not giving it to you, I'm selling it to you."

As early as when I was in Qingzhou, I heard that Lord Suarez was very good at business. The young general has always admired the adult, and this time there is a chance, of course, the first thing I thought of was you, the adult, this time. One is to see the demeanor of adults, and the other is to establish long-term partnerships with adults.

I think our deal is not just about salt. Salt is just the first step, and there will be more aspects of our cooperation in the future. ”

Suarez asked, "Oh, what good things do you have besides salt? Why don't you say it all together and see how far we can work together." ”

Hu Wei hesitated in his heart for a while, and decided to tell Lu You's story. The Wolf Legion has been in the northwest for many years, and this piece can be said to be their territory. Hu Wei believes that no matter how confidential he is, Lu You's matter will be known to Suarez sooner or later. Instead of that, it is better to tell him quickly, firstly, to increase the bargaining chips in the negotiations, and secondly, to show your sincerity in cooperation.

Now Dongwang City is in ruins, if it can rely on the overlord of this same area, it will be a great help to the development of Dongwang City and the Immortal Bird Legion.

After carefully considering the pros and cons, Hu Wei said: "I don't know if Lord Suarez has heard of Lu You. ”

"Lu You?" Suarez asked, "Are you talking about Lu You, the owner of the Tibetan Gold Building, the inventor of the Thunderbolt Car, the first craftsman of the Empire, and the master of machine skills?"

"Yes. Hu Wei nodded and said, "It's this Master Lu Youlu." ”

Suarez said movingly: "He is in your cave city now?"

Lu You, such a master of tricks, is a rare treasure for anyone with vision. With the continuous evolution of the course of warfare, people have long since gotten rid of the most primitive way of fighting.

War is no longer the model of two sides lining up and fighting each other. It has gradually moved toward a new type of warfare that is diversified, multi-arms, and multi-tactic. All kinds of offensive and defensive weapons, large weapons, are increasingly used on the battlefield. There is such a master of Karakuri in the army, sometimes he is more effective than a division. How could Suarez not understand the importance of people like Lu You.

Suarez has always been very eager for such talents, but a master of ingenuity like Lu You has always been arrogant, and it is not so easy to subdue one to serve in the army. This will hear Hu Wei say that he got Lu You to Dongwang City, how can he not be surprised.

Hu Wei looked at Suarez's expression, and knew that this time the treasure was bet on, and nodded: "Master Lu You is not only in my Dongwang City, but he has agreed to be my staff, and now he is the chief Karakuri master in our army, and he is responsible for the research and development and improvement of various weapons." ”

"You've already subdued Lu You?" Renata finally couldn't help but ask. She thought she knew enough about Hu Wei, but now she realized that every time she saw Hu Wei, she could bring her a lot of surprises.

Renata was really surprised and delighted, happy because of her unique vision, and she had already discovered Hu Wei when he was still a partial general and didn't make too many achievements.

The reason why he was shocked was because Hu Wei had already recognized Ximen Yufeng as his sister, and if he did his best to help Ximen Yufeng, then Renata would be more and more difficult if she wanted to win Ximen Yufeng.

Hu Wei smiled at Renata and explained: "It's not about acceptance, I can only say that Master Lu You and I are very good friends, and when we have nothing to do, we will do some research together." ”

Hu Wei said this, and decided to give Renata and Suarez more surprise. He flipped his hand, took out the crossbow, put it on the table and said, "This is called a crossbow, and it was jointly developed by me and Master Lu You. It is characterized by its simple operation, smaller size than a bow and arrow, but more powerful than a normal bow and arrow by a fifth. ”

"This was developed by you and Master Lu You?" Renata didn't look at the crossbow, but noticed Hu You's words.

It's not easy to find a Karakuri master to march into, but it's not absolutely impossible. While Renata was envious of Hu You's ability to recruit Lu You into the army, she was more concerned about the fact that Hu Wei himself was also a master of ingenuity.

How many secrets are there in this nonsense? Renata wants to know more and more
