Tang Dynasty good brother-in-law

Chapter 447
Liu Mu didn't keep it, and he didn't plan to leave a brand for any kind of tea.

At this time, the two teas with the most cards left are evenly divided. One is Qinling Wuhao.The color, tea soup, taste, and this magical method of tea picking, many people have left their cards.

The other is the real strength faction.

Liu Mu also never expected that the era of Datang had good air, good water quality, and a special geographical location.West Lake Longjing is radiant from hundreds of kinds of tea.

Only then did Li Yuan come to the tea shed in Longjing.

The tea merchant bowed deeply: "Sage, this tea is only less than five catties a year. It is picked from the green shoots when the spring is cold, and I invite the sage to taste it."

Willow was stunned.He has only heard of Mingqian Longjing and Yuqian Longjing in later generations.

What is this in front of me?
One sip of tea was enough for Liu Mu to drink. In later generations, he had bought Mingqian Longjing, but he didn't dare to buy the most expensive one. He could still taste the one of one or two thousand. The taste of this tea has no words for Liu Mu.

Xueqian Longjing, the modern tea of ​​later generations, is only a legendary thing for those who love tea.

The output is so small that it depends on the face of God. If there is no spring cold, there will be no tea, and if the opportunity is missed, there will be no tea.

At this time, Liu Mu took out a small golden wooden card and threw it on the table. This card was different from the voting card, and it was unique to Liu Mu.

Liu Mu said: "Next year, I will ask you for a catty of imperial tea tribute."

The tea merchant bowed to Li Yuan: "Xiaomin is extremely happy, the Tang Dynasty will last forever, and the sage Wankang!"

It is a great honor for a tribute to be eligible to be selected at this time.

Liu Mu is not unreasonable, the number of voting cards in the tea shed in Longjing is already there, at least the top two.

"Okay, very good." Li Yuan praised Liu Mu, at least Liu Mu didn't take up the five catties of production.Li Yuan said to the tea merchant: "This kind of good tea will be auctioned in Longqingfang according to the rules, and the one with the highest price will get it."

"Remember to pay the tax, the luxury tax is [-]%." Liu Mu added with a smile.

Luxury tax, Datang's latest tax.

Merchants are eager to be able to collect this kind of tax on their own things. There is another name for luxury tax, which is called rarity tax.

Rare things are more expensive.This expensive is not expensive, but precious.

Indus Square.

It was almost noon, and more than half of the shops in Wutongfang were still blocked by curtains, and there were several people guarding the surroundings outside each shop.

Concubine Wan Gui and the concubines and maids in the palace who were lucky enough to get out of the palace this time entered Wutongfang from the unfinished passage in the north of Wutongfang, and then the inferior court ladies were brought to the Moon Cave Gate in the noble district and the civilian district by hand.

There is a small area called Fuguizhuang, more than half of which is the payment area, and less than half has the counter of Qianzhuang.

The counter of the bank is responsible for exchanging old money, silver for money, and copper for iron money of smaller denominations.The last thing is to exchange money for money. This money only appears in the palace, the officials of the four northern counties of Chang'an, and the managers of various workshops.

What they receive every month is something similar to a salary slip, and then they go to various banks to collect coins.

Palace ladies and eunuchs usually have no chance to spend money in the palace, so they all save a lot of money, and they exchange it for money here, or exchange it for deposit certificates to earn interest.

The eldest grandson Wugou sat with Concubine Wan Gui in the bank for a while, Concubine Wan Gui just wanted to have a look at this new method, just to find something new.

"Wugou, I am a little puzzled."

"Wugou should talk about everything." Eldest grandson Wugou replied from the side.

"Based on what I know about Consort Liu, he is very talented and organized. It took nearly a year to prepare Wutongfang, but many shops seem to be unprepared."

The eldest grandson Wugou didn't explain here, but just asked Concubine Wan Gui to move.

One wrote about the Jiangnan Xidao Tea Merchant Association and Hangzhou branch store, where the clerk opened the curtain to invite the eldest grandson Wugou and Concubine Wan Gui into the shop. The counters are polished brightly.Concubine Wan Gui looked at the shop carefully and asked her eldest grandson Wugou: "It seems to be ready."

"Everything is ready, the reason for not opening the store is. They are waiting for the final pricing of the tea."

"Oh?"

"According to the newly established Datang Tea Merchant Association and the six local associations that have now joined, the rules are jointly established. Tea is divided into six categories and seven grades with 21 levels. Then according to these six categories and seven grades with 21 levels, except for the top super Except for the third grade, the remaining six grades and eighteen grades set the basic price, and then multiplied by the multiple according to the ranking of the tea competition, which will be the final price for the next three years."

After the eldest grandson Wugou finished speaking, he signaled the tea girl to offer tea.

The tea girl held three small dishes, and Changsun Wugou introduced them, "These are West Lake Dragon Well Tea, Yubai Tea, and Sword Sparrow Tongue."

"It looks good." Concubine Wan Gui prefers Sword Sparrow Tongue, because the shape of this tea is particularly good-looking, full of green bud tea.

At this time, I saw a girl with the words Hangzhou Tea Merchant printed on her back rushing towards her. When she rushed to the hat tent, Changsun Wugou signaled her guards not to block her. It was tears of joy.She only saw this shop in her eyes, and didn't even see any distinguished guests here.

After gasping for breath, the girl shouted loudly: "Open a shop, Jiangnan West Road, Hangzhou West Lake Dragon Well Tea won the first prize..."

A continuous shout came from all directions.

Every shop is shouting the rank they got.

No.2, Dongting Biluochun.Qinling Wuhao narrowly beat No.3 by one vote.

Guan Nei Dao got two places in the top ten, one of which is not the top famous tea of ​​later generations, but can only be regarded as second-rate tea, Tang Fu tea.

Fucha is a kind of brick tea, but people in the Tang Dynasty have been drinking tea for who knows how many years. Even if it is for feelings, they will vote for it.

Six of the ten famous teas of later generations were selected by Datang.

At this time, a group of women with the words "Wutongfang" on their backs began to shout in the aristocratic area with copper horns: "After two quarters of an hour, the auction of the Treasure Building will start. The auction of the top ten super products of porcelain and tea will begin.

Madam Wan turned her head and asked her personal maid: "I didn't hear clearly just now, they shouted a little confusedly, which family is Cikui?"

"It's an exhibit of an unknown small kiln in Zhengzhou, called Mirror Porcelain. I heard that Liu Concubine mentioned it in a chat with the head of the Zheng clan in Xingyang, and that Zheng Xiao of Xingyang invested a huge amount of money in funding an unknown porcelain kiln."

"Good!" Changsun Wugou couldn't help applauding.

Concubine Wan Gui asked: "What is a good way?"

"People have to fight for their breath. The three major kilns of the former Sui Dynasty, I'm afraid they didn't expect that there are still people in the world who can surpass them. If they have some bones, they should learn from it and come back to compete in three years."

After Changsun Wugou finished speaking, he asked again: "What about Xing Kiln and Yue Kiln?"

"Yue Kiln ranks fourth, Yao Kiln ranks fifth, and Xing Kiln ranks sixth."
