Volume 1 I Don't Know If I Was a Guest in My Dream Chapter 19 Tea Candle (Happy New Year to All!)

However, it was said that Hao Ren and Chen Cheng sat on the earth dragon and returned to Fengxia Mountain after a short time.

After using the door order to open the prohibition on the mountainside, the two of them saw a figure wandering at the entrance of the cave next to them.

turned around and looked, but it was this enthusiastic neighbor Zhu Jingshan.

Zhu Jingshan happened to see the two of them, and hurriedly stepped forward to ask: "I heard Zhu Zhu say that the sons of the two seem to be unwell, and they rushed to the Yunzhong Pavilion in the morning, I don't know what the situation is?"

Hao Yun was a little strange, how could this Zhu Jingshan care so much about himself.

Hao Ren and Chen Cheng really felt a little tired after wandering around for a day, so they invited Zhu Jingshan into their cave mansion, and only talked about Hao Yun's situation after everyone sat down.

Speaking of which, the two really wanted to find someone else to discuss the situation with the oil candle.

Hao Ren poured a cup of spiritual tea for Zhu Jingshan, and the tea was the tea given by Zhu Jingshan yesterday. Chen Cheng briefly talked about the situation of Hao Yun's inspection, and when he finished speaking, Zhu Jingshan just finished drinking the tea in the cup.

Zhu Jingshan pursed his lips and said strangely: "We have always used ordinary oil candles, but Mianmian has never encountered this problem." However, since the Tong Immortal Master said that Hao Yun had no problems, he was very healthy. Maybe Hao Yun's sense of smell is more intelligent than that of ordinary dolls, and some crying is understandable. ”

"So you two have been looking for something that doesn't smell like a light today, right?" asked Zhu Jingshan as he put down his teacup and asked the two.

"Yes, according to the words of the Tong Shun Immortal Master, you must find something that does not smell when it burns to replace it, otherwise, Yun'er may still cry. Hao Ren explained.

Hao Yun, who was swaddling on the side, was very helpless, and complained in his heart: "If I knew this, I wouldn't have so much trouble if I endured it in the morning." However, Hao Ran thought about it, there was still something to gain from today's events, at least he didn't have to worry about being discovered by others. Moreover, if it weren't for a trip to this Cloud Pavilion today, where would you go to see the duel between the bald head and the thin bamboo pole?

"This is a thing of lighting that doesn't smell bad, so I don't know if the two of you asked?"

Chen Cheng replied: "That Akashi is so in demand, where did my husband and wife buy it, and they have asked everything else, but they don't have eyebrows yet." ”

Zhu Jingshan put his hands in his sleeves, and there was a dazed look in his eyes, as if he was in deep thought for some reason. Hao Ren and Chen Cheng didn't bother either, and Zhu Jingshan, who was silent, added tea.

Soon Zhu Jingshan came back to his senses, and embarrassedly confessed to the two: "I'm sorry I thought about things just now." ”

Hao Ren and Chen Cheng waved their hands again and again and said, "It's okay!"

Zhu Jingshan thought about it again, and suddenly slapped the table and said: "I really have some impression of this smellless lighting thing, wait a minute, I'll come when I go." After saying that, he hurriedly pushed open the door and left.

Hao Ren and his wife were a little confused by Zhu Jingshan's sudden reaction, but listening to Zhu Jingshan's meaning, they could help them solve this problem. The two of them didn't move, just sat quietly in place, waiting patiently.

About a quarter of an hour later, Zhu Jingshan walked in with a brocade box. He slapped the brocade box on the table and turned it to Hao Ren and Chen Cheng, who had not yet opened the brocade box when Hao Yun smelled the fragrance of tea.

Hao Ren said strangely: "Brother Zhu, you haven't finished the tea you gave us yesterday, why did you bring it again, it's really embarrassing to accept it again." ”

"Eh, this is not tea, two Taoist friends will take a look at it. ”

Zhu Jingshan opened the brocade box, but saw an emerald green strip about six inches thick and slender about six inches lying in the box. If you look closely, the moire carved on it is clearly visible, and there is a strong fragrance of tea.

"Is this an oil candle?" Chen Cheng asked uncertainly, after a few glances.

"It's still my brother and sister who have some knowledge, hahaha. It's an oil candle, but rather, it's a tea candle. Zhu Jinshan turned the wooden box sideways and said with a smile.

"Tea candles? What kind of candle is that? Brother Zhu, forgive me for being lonely and unheard, please explain. Hao Ren looked at it again, but still didn't understand what this tea could have to do with candles.

Hao Yun rolled his eyes with some disgust, I'm afraid this cheap dad is not a fool, is this tea candle so difficult to understand?

"It's been a while, about two years ago, and it's also the day when the end of the year is approaching. A candle merchant bought some tea from me, but on the day of the sale, the man was in a hurry and didn't take the tea in time. After that, his business in the store has been relatively busy, and he can't spare time to get tea, so he asked me to send the tea over. Actually, this tea delivery is also very common to me. But after I delivered the tea, the man thanked me again and again, and paid me some more hedrons. Naturally, I couldn't ask for it, and after a few excuses, the man changed his mind. He said that if the hedron is not collected, it will be replaced with a novelty object, but the preparation time is relatively long, and it may not be until the end of the year. ”

Speaking of this, Zhu Jingshan paused, added tea and took a sip before saying: "I only thought it was a kind word at the time, and I didn't take it to heart. Not long after the year, the candle merchant came to the door in person. ”

"So what's in this box is the novelty that the candle merchant said?" Hao Ren asked.

"That's right. However, I smelled the smell of tea from this brocade box, and thought that he was not satisfied with the tea he bought from me and wanted to return it. Who knew that when I opened it, it was this thing. At that time, I wondered, where is this oil candle novel? The candle merchant said that this is not an ordinary oil candle, this thing is called a tea candle, and it is made by a new method of making candles. Ordinary oil candles will have a peculiar smell when lit, but this candle is different, not only does it have no peculiar smell after burning, but it can also fill the room with incense, and the tea candle in this box is made of tea leaves purchased before. I brought it here to give it to you. ”

After hearing this, Hao Ren and Chen Cheng's eyes lit up, isn't this exactly what their husband and wife want!

Happy, Chen Cheng had a question: "Brother Zhu, this tea candle sounds unique, and it smells very fragrant, why don't you see the candle merchant taking it out and selling it?" ”

"Chen Daoyou, you and I want to go together. At that time, I also had this question, such a good thing must not be worried that no one will buy it. The candle merchant gave me three reasons, and it dawned on me after listening to them. ”

"Three reasons?" Hao Ren said curiously.

"The first thing is that it's not easy to make. If you want to make this tea candle, the most important thing is to extract the essence of the tea, and then add it to the oil according to the most appropriate proportion, and finally condense and form. Candle merchants have always known that the oil candle has a peculiar smell, not that they don't want to improve, but once they change the oil formula, the oil candle will not be able to condense and form. After the tea candle is made, it is necessary to wrap a layer of 'tea fragrance clothes' on the outside of it with a suitable temperature, and the tea candle will melt when the temperature is high, and the 'tea fragrance clothes' cannot be hung when the temperature is low. It takes seven days to make a tea candle, which is too low. ”

"This production process is so magical, isn't it better to sell? Although it takes a little longer to make it, the price should be extremely impressive, right?"

"The candle merchant has sold this tea candle, according to the process of making it and the unique fragrance of this tea candle, he has set a very high price for this tea candle, according to his price, the spar needed to buy two tea candles, you can buy a Akashi lamp. ”

"So expensive?" Hao Ren knew this Akashi lamp, and ordinary people couldn't afford to use that lamp.

"So the tea merchant was extremely embarrassed about this. This is priced low, I'm sorry for myself, the price is high, the price of a tea candle is suspected of robbing money. Therefore, the second reason is the problem of price. There is a third reason, and the main reason, that is, this tea candle is really unmarketable, and the candle merchant has only sold a pair of tea candles for a year after trying every means to sell it. ”

"Brother Zhu, how can we be embarrassed to accept such a valuable thing?" Chen Cheng made a gesture to push the brocade box back to Zhu Jinshan.

Hao Yun puffed his fingers, he didn't expect this little candle to say this.

"Eh, actually, I have something I want to ask you for. Zhu Jingshan hurriedly pressed the box and said.

"I don't know if my husband and wife can help?" Hao Ren really wanted to accept this tea candle in his heart, he saw Chen Cheng's performance today, but he didn't want to worry her all the time because of this oil candle.

Both of them knew that Zhu Zhu was about to give birth. It's been the end of the year recently, so we can be by our side, and after the New Year, our father and daughter can't stay in the cave every day. I can't get out of that tea shop on weekdays, and I am also in the immortal cultivation academy after a long time. Zhu Zhu is left alone in this cave, and I really can't rest assured. I hope that Chen Daoyou and Zhu Zhu can be companions and take care of each other when the time comes. ”

"Brother Zhu, how can there be anything that should not be taken care of. I just gave birth to Yun'er, and I have a lot of parenting problems and want to ask Sister Zhu Zhu, I can't afford your gift. You can keep such a good thing for yourself," Chen Cheng resigned.

"I'm also a kid who has raised children, I know that. This kid's business is never a trivial matter. Zhu Zhu told me that you were in a hurry in the morning, and we would do the same if our family had a little discomfort in the past. Since you call me Brother Zhu, Yun'er is also half of my nephew, and this tea candle should be regarded as a meeting gift for me, an elder. You can take it with peace of mind, I still have one for myself. I don't know if Zhu Zhu will give me another daughter or a son, and I'm worried that my child will be like Yun'er who can't get used to the smell of the oil candle, so you should just try this tea candle for me. Don't shirk anymore. ”

Zhu Jingshan's words were loud, and he very resolutely pushed the brocade box in front of Chen Cheng. Turning his head to look at Hao Ren again, he knew that Hao Ren still needed to take an idea here.

The tacit understanding between men is like this, after Hao Ren and Zhu Jingshan looked at each other, Hao Ren already knew what Zhu Jingshan meant.

Hao Ren waved his hand and said: "Brother Zhu has said so, why are we embarrassed to refuse, we will use this tea candle well." Brother Zhu and we are neighbors, and this should be done, so Brother Zhu just rest assured. ”

didn't wait for Chen Cheng to speak, seeing that Hao Ren had already spoken, Zhu Jingshan hurriedly said: "Since this is the case, I will put the thing here, I suddenly remembered that Zhu Zhu in the mansion was still waiting, so I will go back." If this tea candle works, then come to find a brother. ”

After that, Zhu Jingshan hurriedly left the house, as if there was something urgent. Only Chen Cheng and Hao Yun, who had not yet reacted, were left.

Hao Yun thought in his heart: This is really a model neighbor!
