Chapter 1506 One Thousand 510 Chapter Four Innovative Tea

"Mother's kindness to me, Eldest Sister remembers in her heart. You two are both good girls. Whenever you need Eldest Sister's help in the future, just ask."

Hearing the elder sister's promise, the two little girls were very happy, "Okay, okay, as long as the elder sister says this, we promise to ask the elder sister for help if we need help."

"Okay, don't talk nonsense, let's go and have a look at my tea leaves. There is still a batch of loose tea piled up here, and Juan'er has been guarding it all the time. Do you two want to go?" Qiangwei looked at the two mischievous girls and couldn't help it. Live helplessly smiled.

"Eldest sister, let Yuaner accompany you to see the tea leaves. I'll go to the kitchen to see if there is anything I need to explain. Elder sister finally came back. I must ask the cook to cook you something delicious." Nangong Die As Yi said, he explained to Yuan'er beside him, "Mom is in a special period now, so she can't work too hard. There is a space in the inner courtyard, and it's up to the two of us for the time being."

"Well, I'll listen to Second Sister." Nangong Yuan'er nodded docilely, watched Second Sister leave, then turned to Qiangwei and said, "Elder Sister, since you got married, Yuan'er feels that our yard is much quieter. "

"Oh? So Yuan'er means that I'm noisy at home?" Qiangwei blinked and looked at Yuan'er pretending to be sad.

"No, no, Yuan'er doesn't mean that. What I mean is that without my eldest sister, I always feel like I'm missing something." Speaking of which, Nangong Yuan'er has never been alone with Qiangwei, so let's talk It's a bit cautious to come here.

Seeing Yuan'er blushing anxiously, Qiangwei sighed helplessly, "Yuan'er, you are my younger sister and the daughter of the Nangong family, as long as you step out, you represent Nangong Mansion. Even in the eyes of various aristocratic families , There are distinctions between concubine and concubine, but there are not many children in Nangong Mansion, so you don't pay much attention to this aspect. Therefore, your status is more noble than girls from ordinary aristocratic families. Even if they say what they say, they are envious in their hearts. "

After Qiangwei finished speaking, she noticed that Nangong Yuaner was staring at her with big eyes, and then pouted with a blushing face, "Sister, I also know that our family doesn't have many children, and my father treats us equally well. But I still can't convince myself, whether at home or outside, just because of my status as a concubine, I always feel like a dwarf."

Speaking of this, she felt more resentment toward her aunt in her heart, if she hadn't told her ears every day that she was a concubine daughter, not as honorable as a concubine daughter, no matter what she wanted, she would have to use means to get it.If it weren't for this, I wouldn't be so inferior.

"If you had this kind of thought before, I won't say anything, but in the future, you should get rid of this problem. If you feel cowardly in your heart, you can practice more at home. You just need to remember that your surname is Nangong, and you are from Zhen Guohou Daughter. Just this, you are honorable." Qiangwei felt that she had already said what she could say, and if she continued to feel inferior, there was nothing she could do.

Listening to the elder sister's harsh teaching, Nangong Yuan'er bit her lip, and finally said with a firm face as if she had made up her mind, "Elder sister, don't worry, I will practice more, so as not to embarrass Nangong Mansion."

"Well, with ambition, as long as you put the honor of Nangong Mansion first in your heart, you will be much more courageous." Qiangwei said as she walked, and after a while, they came to the garden where the tea leaves were stored. Sitting on a chair embroidering a leisurely look.

"Princess? Are you back?" When Juan'er felt a shadow in front of her eyes, she couldn't help but look up, only to realize that at some point, the concubine had already stood in front of him.

"Well, I just came back yesterday, so I'll come to see you today," Qiangwei smiled, looking at a rhododendron she embroidered, she couldn't help but smile, "How is the tea, is it okay?"

"Well, after the tea leaves are dried, they have been piled up in the room, and the servants will check them several times a day, and there is no problem at all." If the princess hadn't said that the loose tea was not convenient to transport back and forth, she would have waited to press the tea into cakes .

"Very good. When I have time another day, I can press these teas and store them." Qiangwei said, pushing open the warehouse door and looking around, seeing the loose tea piled up in the room like a hill, the corner of Qiangwei's mouth She couldn't help but tilt her head up. What she likes now is the tea leaves in front of her eyes. This pile of tea is a better batch of autumn tea that Song Fei sent.Whether it is from the level or the line, it is gratifying.

It is already summer now, and the picking of spring tea has long since ended. According to the calculation of time, the last wave of spring tea purchased by Song Fei should also arrive.

He knows that he likes these big-leaf teas, and he can buy them no matter what season they are.During the last chat, he also told himself that in addition to the stricter control of spring tea in Bashu, the control of summer tea and autumn tea is not too strict.Because those teas, in the eyes of the government, are inferior products, and they are also folk teas. In addition, the branches and leaves are thick and old, but rich and wealthy merchants will not buy rough tea to drink.

When Qiangwei heard the news, she actually felt very sad.Tea farmers plant and produce tea, but they cannot get a good life.Those nobles drank high-end tea every day, and some bought it without hesitation, but the money would never enter the pockets of tea farmers.

Although a large amount of Pu'er tea is planted in Bashu, the innovation of tea leaves is not good.That's why Qiangwei wanted Song Fei to buy Xia Cha and Autumn Tea.Of course, it would be better to have spring tea.The taste of Pu-erh tea can be blended, as long as the blend is good, in the later stage of the transformation process, there will be unexpected good taste.

Blended tea has not appeared in the current Bashu, so Qiangwei wants to seize this opportunity and store a batch of tea properly. After a few years, a lot of money will flow into her pocket.

Therefore, as long as it is a large-leaf Maocha, regardless of its grade, Song Fei will buy Qiangwei in large quantities.As long as the fermenting process is well controlled, good tea soup can emerge.Even if we take a step back, their actions can be regarded as increasing income for Bashu tea farmers.
Therefore, every time Song Fei said that he wanted to collect rough tea, the tea farmers were very happy. In addition, Song Fei was never short of catties and had already established a reputation among tea farmers. sell him.

According to Song Fei, although Bashu is rich in tea, the life of those tea farmers is not very good.Because under the control of the government, tea farmers have to hand over all the first batch of spring tea picked to the government, and dedicate it to the palace as tribute tea.

It is said that when the first batch of spring buds were picked, the scene was guarded by officers and soldiers.If someone is found to be cheating, they need to be punished.
