Chapter 60

Shopkeeper Xu was very excited at the moment, and he didn't lose face when he heard what Lin Baozhu said.

He was used to doing business, and he knew that nothing could happen in the world. Now that he had negotiated with someone and had a contract document, he should act according to the document.Furthermore, the bulk of the money has been paid out, so why bother to raise the price again.

So at that moment he accepted it with a smile, and said briskly: "This matter should be mentioned. Although the white cockscomb you sent a few days ago is not as good as the price of spring tea during Qingming, it also sold for a full five taels of silver. Jin." As he said, he shook his head regretfully, "At that time, I only knew that the tea was good tea, but I didn't know that it was so difficult to find. If I knew the market like this, I should have left more tea at that time. Tea, too, can rise with the tide of fame.”

What shopkeeper Xu was talking about was the new spring tea that Lin Baozhu made when she first started making tea. At that time, she and Zhang Mantun worked hard day and night to pick it, but they only made [-] catties of new tea.But at that time, she did not expect that shopkeeper Xu could actually deliver that little-known tea to the passing nobleman, let alone that the nobleman who loves tea is not just an ordinary arty person, he is a real tea taster. People who know tea.

So after such a coincidence, Baijiguan new tea was favored by many wealthy families.It's just that the spring tea season is over now, and they don't have any stock on hand, it's a pity that the market is so good.

However, compared to shopkeeper Xu's regret, Lin Baozhu was more open-minded, she smiled and said: "Don't be a pity for the shopkeeper, this is not a bad thing, after all, there are many people begging for tea now, but there is no other tea in the market. Sellers. Are you afraid that there won’t be a better market until next spring?”

Not to mention that the white cockscomb that is being hyped up outside has not yet been discovered, even if it is discovered, Lin Baozhu is confident in her tea-making skills.After all, she had tasted the tea of ​​this era. Compared with the tea leaves, there were many less processes. Although the tea fragrance and original taste were maintained, the quality of the tea was much worse.

After hearing this, shopkeeper Xu thought quickly, and after a little thought, he understood the meaning of Lin Baozhu's words.At that moment, he happily slapped his forehead on the armrest and laughed twice, saying yes again and again.

With such an incident, and the fact that shopkeeper Xu is not a short-sighted person, he happily agreed to the price of three taels of five silver coins that Lin Baozhu said for the old tea and white cockscomb he sent this time.

Of course, this price was not raised rashly by Lin Baozhu's red mouth and white teeth, but when shopkeeper Xu mentioned the price, she quickly thought about it in her heart.

Now the white cockscomb at home is considered an old tea. Originally, apart from the hard work of making the tea and the firewood used, there is no additional cost.But if roads are built and returned to tea gardens, and people are hired to pick and make tea, it will be different.

After getting the price of the tea, she had a solid idea in mind, and after some calculations, she got an approximate price.Before she asked about the good Tieguanyin tea on the counter, it was only five or six taels of money. After deducting the transportation expenses of the tea shop, and the wages of the waiters on the counter, plus [-]% interest, she estimated the cost to be about the same. up.Therefore, Lin Baozhu is very confident about the three, two, five, five yuan price he proposed.

After setting a new price and re-signing the contract documents, Lin Baozhu exchanged glances with her man again.Seeing her man's eyes full of support, she was extremely happy.

After talking about the white cockscomb tea, Lin Baozhu brought out the newly made Eagle tea.Compared with the fragrant white cockscomb tea, this smoked eagle tea has a much richer taste, but as soon as the mouth of the bamboo tube is opened, a mellow, sweet and bitter tea fragrance hits the nostrils, even making the nose of shopkeeper Xu who is close A little itchy.

Shopkeeper Xu is no stranger to this taste, and the tea shop has this kind of strong tea.Although this kind of tea is not widely sold, there are still many people who need it in summer.Not to mention its strong taste and strong tea strength, but to drink it as herbal tea in hot summer will quench your thirst.Especially some scholars who plan to take the autumn scientific examination like to refresh themselves with this kind of tea.

However, he did not expect that Zhang Mandun and Lin Baozhu would send such worthless tea.Originally, he thought that the tea made by the couple only made good tea like white cockscomb.

Seeing shopkeeper Xu's surprised face, Lin Baozhu said with a smile: "Shopkeeper, this is my newly made eagle tea. I won't say much about it. I hope the shopkeeper will try it. If he thinks it's okay, we can drink it in the future. You can also serve this kind of coarse tea."

Shopkeeper Xu frowned slightly, feeling a little embarrassed.Nowadays, there are tea merchants who regularly supply Eagle tea in the tea shop, and sometimes the owner will even go to the countryside to find some tea farmers to pick Eagle tea for processing.Due to the low cost of this tea and the fact that it is considered coarse tea, even if the sales volume is good, there is not much profit after all.

He can't let the interests of his own tea shop be damaged for Lin Baozhu's sake, right?

Lin Baozhu saw shopkeeper Xu's distressed expression, and guessed his worry, so she simply didn't urge her, just smiled and said generously: "Even if we can't reach an agreement, it won't affect our other friendships. The so-called business is not about benevolence and righteousness." Now, not to mention that we have to rely on the shopkeeper's help to sell the white cockscomb tea."

This time, I feel embarrassed to change the shopkeeper Xu, but Zhang Mandun looks like he is sitting on Mount Tai, and although Lin Baozhu is smiling, there is no trace of flattery or flattery. .But the more this happened, the more admiration he looked at the two of them.

Looking at the seemingly inconspicuous country men and ignorant village women, they speak and act calmly, and they are intelligent and calm. They will not be embarrassed by the embarrassment they show, and they will not threaten them with white cockscomb tea.On the contrary, inadvertently, people can't make mistakes, but it's hard to refuse.

Such a character, why worry about not being able to succeed?

But this is just the shopkeeper Xu thinking about it in his own mind. It's just tea tasting, so it doesn't bother him.He raised his voice and called the buddy to bring a clean tea bowl and water. Which of the buddies who are busy in the backyard can't make tea?So I didn't need to tell the shopkeeper, I just washed the tea and made it quickly.

The tea leaves were swirled twice in the water, but in an instant the water in the tea bowl turned a clear but fragrant amber color.Shopkeeper Xu, who was a little disapproving just now, sat up straight when he smelled the fragrance of tea, and his eyes lingered on the tea bowl for a long time without moving away.

He can sit from a tea farmer to the shopkeeper of the No. [-] tea shop in Anping, so he naturally has his own ability, but compared to the means of doing business, his ability to know tea and taste tea is even more outstanding.So just by smelling it, he found that the eagle tea sent by Lin Baozhu was very different from the existing ones in the tea shop.

Not only is the amount of this tea used less, but the soup color is very strong, and the taste also has an indescribably peculiar fragrance.Thinking of the white cockscomb that he had never encountered last time, and looking at the bowl of eagle tea that seemed different in front of him, shopkeeper Xu didn't dare to make a decision, so he quickly picked up the tea bowl and took a sip.

The lingering fragrance is full of mouth, making people unforgettable after a try.This Eagle tea is different from the ones sold before, although it is also sweet and bitter, but it returns to sweetness very quickly, and it lasts for a long time.Entrance produces fluid, probably so.

"What does the shopkeeper think?"

After savoring carefully, shopkeeper Xu looked at the stretched tea leaves in the tea bowl. It was definitely Eagle Tea, and it was not mixed with other tea leaves.It's just that such a sweet and refreshing tea is rare. Although it is a rough tea, it is still of high quality, which is very rare.

"Dare to ask my brothers and sisters, where did this tea come from? As far as I know, there seems to be no eagle tea with such a lingering fragrance in Northern Qizhou and even Junzhou. Even if there is, it is very tasty. The big one." Shopkeeper Xu showed curiosity, but he had no other evil intentions, and he didn't want to find out where the tea came from so as to cut off Lin Baozhu's money.It's just that I have been making tea for a long time, and I am inevitably curious when I encounter it.

Naturally, Lin Baozhu also saw that he had no intention of cutting off people's fortunes, and Zhang Mandun looked at her encouragingly, so she naturally felt very at ease.With these words, she can basically confirm that there is a door to this business.

"It's from our own tea mountain. If the shopkeeper thinks it's okay, we can talk about it in detail." In addition to tea-making techniques, the quality of tea itself is better than others, so tea sand.

The so-called tea sand is actually another special kind of eagle tea.If we talk about it, we have to start with the origin of Eagle Tea.

It is said that only birds like eagles can fly to the tea tree to peck at the tea tree. Because of the unique effect of relieving heat, eagles like to eat it most, so it is called eagle tea.

And tea sand is when the old leaves of tea are stored, they are eaten by a kind of insects who like to eat the tea leaves, and then excrete the insects.This kind of insect droppings like tiny particles is black in color and looks very much like silkworm excrement.And this worm poop is not polluted because it is produced by non-toxic and harmless insects.At the same time, the seemingly inconspicuous tea sand is more refreshing than eagle tea.

But even though this is the case, because the tea leaves have not gone through the refining process like Lin Baozhu's during storage, they are easily spoiled, so tea sand is naturally rare, and its value is even higher than that of Eagle Tea itself.

Shopkeeper Xu didn't want to have tea sand, so his eyes lit up immediately, and he looked at Lin Baozhu with burning eyes.And Zhang Mandun also felt a sense of pride in his heart because of his daughter-in-law's extremely confident words. The bulging feeling couldn't be explained, but it made him happy.

A strange heat flowed in his heart, this man who didn't say a word but trusted his wife so much, now he felt that his wife was really nice, but the dazzling but he couldn't help liking her more and more.

Lin Baozhu took a moment to glance at her husband, and saw that his face remained unchanged, but the burning in his eyes was not concealed at all, and he felt a little embarrassed at the moment, and his face turned rosy.
