pinnacle of power

Sagawa Suzuki pondered for a moment, then said slowly: "For me, tea is not just a drink, but an important medium for communication between people and hearts. In daily life, people and people When communicating with each other, it is not easy to reach the level of intimacy in a short period of time. However, by worshiping each other and drinking a bowl of tea, I will order a bowl of tea for you, and you come to drink this bowl of tea. There are many procedures and actions, such as ordering tea, serving tea, and drinking tea between the host and the guest, so they can communicate with each other's feelings and moods. And this is also the state of Tao in the tea ceremony I advocate. The tea ceremony is It is a way of cultivating the mind by drinking tea. One’s mind should be brushed from time to time, so as to enrich one’s inner world.”

After Sagawa Suzuki finished speaking, a sacred gesture appeared on his face, as if he was extremely noble at this moment and needed to be admired by all people.

Hearing the words, the Tianzhu man first frowned and fell into deep thought, then his face showed shock, he looked at Sagawa Suzuki with eyes full of admiration, and said to Sagawa Suzuki, "Mr. Sagawa Suzuki, I am sorry for your tea ceremony." Much admiration."

After finishing speaking, Tianzhu man looked at Qin Shuai. At this moment, his eyes were not the same as looking at Sagawa Suzuki. Although there was no contempt in his eyes, he didn't think that Qin Shuai The understanding of tea and tea ceremony can surpass that of Sagawa Suzuki.

However, to Tianzhu Man's surprise, there was a sneer of disdain on the corner of Qin Shuai's mouth at this moment, his eyes turned to Sagawa Suzuki and said: "Mr. Sagawa Suzuki, did you just say your tea ceremony? "

Sagawa Suzuki nodded profoundly: "That's right, this is my tea ceremony."

"Hahahaha, this is the funniest joke I've heard this year." Qin Shuai suddenly laughed wildly.

With this smile, not only did Sagawa Suzuki stare at Qin Shuai with puzzled and angry eyes, but Tianzhu Man also frowned and said to Qin Shuai: "My friend, if you don't give a suitable reason, I think there is no need for you to participate in today's tea fight. There is no quiet word in the way of tea fighting, so how can you get the mood to taste tea? Your tea ceremony has lost its foundation."

The sneer on the corner of Shuai Qin's mouth became stronger, he looked directly at Tianzhu Man and said, "Friend, do you think what Sagawa Suzuki said just now is his tea ceremony?"

The Tianzhu man was taken aback, and asked in shock: "Isn't it?"

Tianzhu male is also a smart person. From Qin Shuai's words, he has already heard some other meanings.He already faintly felt that he might be ashamed today.

Qin Shuai did not answer Tianzhu Nan directly, but looked at Sagawa Suzuki and asked: "Mr. Sagawa Suzuki, are you sure what you just said is your tea ceremony?"

Sagawa Suzuki's heart suddenly began to sink, and sweat began to sweat on his forehead, but he still managed to put on an unfathomable look on his face and said, "That's right, this is my tea ceremony."

"Hmph, nonsense!" Qin Shuai snorted suddenly, and said in a deep voice, "Mr. Sagawa Suzuki, what you just said was not about your tea ceremony, but about the No. 15 head of your Japanese tea ceremony school. The tea ceremony in the Sengen room! Sagawa Suzuki-san, you seem to be looking good."

After finishing speaking, Qin Shuai sighed lightly and shook his head lightly.

But at this moment, Sagawa Suzuki's face has completely changed, looking at Qin Shuai is full of shock and anger, but at the same time there is a trace of shame.

Tianzhu Man was also a little surprised at the moment. Although he was not sure whether what Qin Shuai said was true or not, he could guess it just by looking at Sagawa Suzuki's expression. I am afraid that what Qin Shuai said was true. it is true.

This Sagawa Suzuki actually copied other people's tea ceremony!

Tianzhu Man frowned at this moment, looking at Sagawa Suzuki.

Sagawa Suzuki reacted quickly, but after a while, he laughed: "My friend, you are right, what I said just now has some similarities with Mr. Sengenshi's tea ceremony. It seems that there are many schools of tea ceremony in the world, and as long as you agree, the tea ceremony of others is also your tea ceremony. For our Sagawa tea ceremony school, our tea ceremony concept and the tea ceremony concept of Lisenke are in the same line. You say I plagiarized, this It’s nonsense, it’s not that I’m showing off, but that you’re showing off.”

Qin Shuai smiled and shook his head when he heard this, with a look of disdain on his face.Obviously, he did not agree with Sagawa Suzuki's explanation.

At this time, Sagawa Suzuki knew that if Qin Shuai continued to attack, he might not be able to participate in today's tea fight, and he had already bet 200 million yuan with the boss to decide today's tea fight Win or lose, if you can't participate, then it means you lose.This is something he cannot tolerate under any circumstances.

Therefore, Sagawa Suzuki immediately countered: "Young man, you are a bit aggressive. I don't know what your tea ceremony is? You shouldn't copy my tea ceremony, right?"

Qin Shuai smiled: "Mr. Sagawa Suzuki, don't worry, my tea ceremony is completely different from yours.

In my opinion, tea ceremony is a kind of cultural inheritance and integration, and tea is a carrier of this cultural inheritance and integration. It is a specific process of tea practice and a process of self-improvement and self-knowledge of tea people.

Some people think that the tea ceremony is a kind of elegant culture. I don't agree with it. I think that the tea ceremony can be enjoyed by both refined and popular people. People of different status, beliefs and cultural levels have different pursuits for the tea ceremony.The aristocrats talked about "the treasure of tea" in order to show off their power, wealth, and arty.The bachelor of literati talks about "the charm of tea", entrusts objects to cherish, stimulates literary thinking, and makes friends.Buddhists talk about the "virtue of tea", which aims to relieve sleepiness and refresh the mind, practice Zen and enlighten the Tao, and become a Buddha in a short time.Taoism talks about "the power of tea", which means to drink tea to keep in good health, to preserve life for a whole year, and to become immortal.Ordinary people talk about the "taste of tea" in order to get rid of fishy and greasy, quench their thirst and enjoy life.

In my opinion, tea tasters realize the Tao through drinking, and this process is called the tea ceremony.Or to put it simply, the drinker's awareness of tea is called the tea ceremony.Because people who drink tea are different, their awareness of tea is also different.But one thing is the same, the process of tea-tasting consciousness is the process of inheritance, integration and cognition of culture.So I say that the tea ceremony is a kind of cultural inheritance and integration. "

After Qin Shuai finished speaking, Sagawa Suzuki and Tianzhu Nan showed deep thought at the same time.Liu Qingyu next to him nodded thoughtfully. With Liu Qingyu's profound traditional Chinese culture, he deeply agrees with what Qin Shuai said.

In Liu Qingyu's view, the Chinese tea ceremony has become a carrier for inheriting the traditional Chinese culture. People at different levels have different understandings of the tea ceremony, but one thing is the same, that is, the traditional Chinese culture. Inheritance and awareness.

At this moment, Liu Qingyu looked at Qin Shuai with a little more appreciation and surprise. He did not expect that Qin Shuai, who was usually a little unreliable in doing things, would have such a profound understanding of the tea ceremony.

After a while, the Tianzhu man raised his head, looked at Qin Shuai with a little more radiance, and said to Qin Shuai, "Okay, what a cultural inheritance and integration, I have learned."

After finishing speaking, he said to the young woman standing beside him, "Get ready for the tea fighting tools."

Obviously, the Tianzhu man also approved of Qin Shuai's tea ceremony theory. As for Sagawa Suzuki, the Tianzhu man can naturally see that the other party is playing tricks.But no matter what, he is a guest from afar, and he can't drive him away now.The most important thing is that the two have already agreed that the loser of the tea fight will give the other 200 million yuan!

While the young woman was instructing the waiters to prepare tea fighting tools, the Tianzhu man looked at Liu Qingyu and said, "I made an agreement with Sagawa Suzuki just now. This time the tea fighting requires a bet. Originally, I agreed with you on 10 200 yuan, but Sagawa Suzuki and I agreed on [-] million yuan, do you want to raise?"

Hearing that the Tianzhu man said it to himself, Liu Qingyu looked at Tianzhu man with a little more meaning in his eyes. He knew that this Tianzhu man had already seen that between himself and Qin Shuai, He is the real decision-maker, he smiled and shook his head: "Betting? There is no need! The purpose of our coming here today to participate in this tea fight is just to meet you, Mr. Han. As for the bet, it is just to be able to Just take part in this tea fight."

"Oh? Mr. Han? Did you recognize the wrong person?" Tianzhu Man showed a surprised expression.

But Liu Qingyu shook his head with a smile: "Mr. Han Tianlong, I believe in my perception and my judgment. I think you are the tea ceremony master Han Tianlong in Tiandu Province. Otherwise, you can just hire a tea art master." A master cannot reach the realm of a tea ceremony master at all, let alone relying on your cognition and understanding in the tea ceremony just now, you can’t do it without reaching a certain level. So, I don’t think you are a master Han at all. The tea artist hired, but you yourself are Master Han Tianlong."

After finishing speaking, Liu Qingyu looked directly at the Tianzhu man, with a strong confidence in the corner of his mouth.

The Tianzhu man was silent for a while, then suddenly he laughed and nodded slightly: "Okay, it seems that I have indeed met an expert today, this gentleman's understanding of the tea ceremony shocked me, and you are keen I admire his insight even more, since this is the case, there is no need for me to play tricks, you are right, I am Han Tianlong. I don’t know what your name is?"

"Liu Qingyu." Seeing that the other party directly admitted his identity, Liu Qingyu didn't hide it, and directly said his real name.

"Liu Qingyu? Liu Qingyu, Deputy Chief Prosecutor of the Provincial Procuratorate and Director of the Anti-Corruption Bureau?" Han Tianlong looked at Liu Qingyu in surprise and asked.

Liu Qingyu nodded with a smile on his face.

Seeing Liu Qingyu admit it, Han Tianlong's face changed several times in an instant, showing an unnatural expression on his face.
