"Hey..." father Zhou sighed and knew that the elder brother opposite was angry.

He has said such angry words many times, but he still can't bear the tea tree left by his ancestors, let alone his craft from childhood to old.

If the tea leaves are really put at home, moldy and smelly, they will be really busy at the end of the year. If you sell it later, you will sell it at a lower price.

"Shen's tea shop in East Street collects tea. The top-grade tea is 50 Wen and a kilo, and the ordinary tea is 30 Wen and a kilo." the ragged little beggar, with a big steamed stuffed bun in his hand, ran and shouted in the street.

Hearing the cry, the old man carrying tea to go home stopped.

"Baby, wait." father Zhou quickly stopped the beggar running in front of him.

"What's the matter?" the little beggar took a bite of steamed stuffed bun and looked at father Zhou and asked.

"What you just shouted is true?" asked father Zhou.

The little beggar said, "of course it's true. Those who sell tea on the street go to the Shenjia tea shop on East Street to sell tea. Go quickly!"

When the little beggar finished, he jumped and ran away. While running, he shouted, "Shen family tea shop in East Street collects tea..."

Father Zhou is very excited now. Someone offered 50 Wen for tea tasting, which is a great good thing for their tea farmers!

But he was afraid that the little beggar was shouting, so as not to be happy in vain. He tried to calm himself down, looked at the old man opposite and said, "brother, shall we go to East Street?"

The old man nodded, so they went to the owner. As soon as they got to the end of the street, they saw a long line from the middle of the street to the end of the street.

No one in line has several linen pockets or large baskets around him.

Father Zhou and the old man lined up at the end of the line, patted the young man in front on the shoulder and asked, "little brother, does this Shen family tea store collect tea?"

The young man in front turned his head with a happy smile on his face, showed his white teeth and said, "yes! How much do you charge for 50 Wen a kilo of top-grade tea and ordinary 30 Wen?"

"Not only Shen's tea shop, but also Yun's tea shop. It's the same price!" the middle-aged man in front of the young man turned his head and said with a smile.

Father Zhou and the old man looked at each other and patted their thighs happily. Tears were flashing in their eyes. They had been working on tea trees for decades. It was the first time they had sold them at this price!

Father Zhou said happily, "my family has 200 kilograms of tea, and 300 kilograms of ordinary tea. How much silver does it cost?"

The middle-aged man in the front row could do some arithmetic, calculated and said, "it can sell almost twenty Liang!"

When Zhou's father heard this, he almost grinned to the back of his head and said happily, "no coward."

There are eight people in his family. In recent years, with crops and tea and the money earned from odd jobs outside, he has earned more than ten liang of silver all year round. But this year, he can get about twenty liang of tea alone. Not only is it not cowardly, it's just heaven.

"Oh! I take all the top-grade tea to sell, and the ordinary tea is still at home! I'm in line here again. How can this be done?" father Zhou said anxiously. I knew that if I promised to let Dashun sell tea with him today, I could line up alone and go back and ask my family to bring all the tea.

The young man in front said, "it's all right. The people in the tea shop said that the tea has been received by the end of the month! The price remains the same."

Hearing this, Zhou's father was relieved. Later, several tea sellers came and asked Zhou's father about it. They were happy and curious: "Why are Shen's tea shop and Yun's tea shop willing to pay such a high price and take our tea?"

The price of ordinary tea directly doubles the price of superior tea offered by foreign tea merchants.

The young man in the front row said angrily, "why? Naturally, it's for our tea farmers in Jiangzhou not to be bullied by those foreign tea merchants who lower prices!"
