I made Daqin a prosperous world

Chapter 98
More than a catty of tea leaves were fried twice, and the final product was as Li Yu expected, only less than two taels.

After Li Yu carefully stored the fried tea leaves in a roasted earthen jar, he was so busy that he touched the sweat on his forehead and said, "Four old doctors, please."

After Li Yu finished speaking, he walked ahead with the tea pot in his arms.

Drinking tea naturally requires the pursuit of the environment.

After falling into the courtyard, Li Yu took out the specially made sand pot, teacup, small stove and the pear wood tray carved by Xiu Niang, and then Li Yu started to boil water and make tea.

And a group of old men sat around the table, looking at Li Yuyun's calm and elegant performance art.

Master Hou, what are you doing here?
Does the fried tea leaves have other magical effects?

Boiling water to drink tea leaves?

After Li Yu's operation, in the eyes of Hua Tuo and the others, it was simply a reward for human delusion.

But Li Yu didn't say a word, and quietly waited for the water to boil, then poured the pot, warmed the cup, and finally took out the tea leaves to brew.

As the greenish-yellow tea fell into the cup, Li Yu said, "Old Hua, Elder Sun, can you try it?"

The four of Hua Tuo went from watching Li Yu frying tea to making tea, and now they heard that Li Yu invited them to drink tea, and they felt that their brains were not enough.

After speaking, Li Yu raised the teacup to the tip of his nose and smelled it, then drank it down in one gulp, and looked at Hua Tuo and the others with enjoyment.

From Li Yu's expression, what Hua Tuo and the others understood was that everything was in the air, please drink this cup to the full.

Hua Tuo was the first to pick up the teacup, imitating Li Yu's example, and sniffed it at the tip of his nose.

It doesn't matter if I smell it, I just feel a sweet fragrance that is separated from the raw taste of the tea leaves in my heart, and my mind is cleared up for a while.

Hua Tuo couldn't help but praised: "What a special fragrance."

After finishing speaking, he just took a sip and drank the tea.

Then Hua Tuo's ruddy childlike face gradually turned into shock, he couldn't help smacking his lips, and shouted, "It's so sweet, is this tea?"

With this opening, Sun Simiao and the others couldn't bear it anymore, they picked up the teacup again and again, they all learned how Li Yu did before, smelled it, and then drank it.

Without exception, as Li Yu expected, only Sun Simiao shouted: "This thing goes straight into the lungs, or is it water?"

Zhang Zhongjing and Li Shizhen didn't say a word, but the look of enjoyment on their faces couldn't be faked.

Obviously telling Li Yu, the word "refill".

Li Yu grinned, and asked knowingly: "How do the four old doctors think this water is compared to warm water?"

"After thinking about it, I can only use the word wonderful to describe it!"

"I didn't expect that this ordinary tea, after Lord Hou's frying and soaking, can make the boiling water taste as sweet as possible."

One can only drink two or three servings of tea, but several people drank four or five servings until they were exhausted.

The four of them wanted to ask Li Yu for some tea, but because Li Yu had painstakingly fried it just now, and the quantity was not much, they left unwillingly and with some reluctance.

Li Yu would not be stingy, but he bought two liang of tea leaves today, and there was not much to share, so he simply didn't mention a word.

Seeing that Hua Tuo and the others were about to leave, Li Yu explained intentionally: "Four old doctors, after a few days the medicine farmers came back from picking tea leaves. I sent someone to learn the skill of frying tea. Naturally, some people will be sent to medical school. of."

Hearing Li Yu's explanation, several well-known and well-known genius doctors finally expressed their relief, and said goodbye with joy.

After watching the few people leave, Li Yu said: "It's so powerful, have you ever seen the skill of making tea just now?"

Zhang Deli nodded first, then shook his head again, and said, "Master Hou, I see it, but I don't quite understand..."

Li Yu smiled helplessly. It is considered exquisite for an old man to be able to drink fried tea.

"It's okay if you don't understand. Later, you can find a brocade handkerchief and pack some tea leaves to send to Xianyang Palace."

Li Yu just finished speaking, Zhang Deli was clever, pointed at the bridge of his nose in shock and asked: "Hou, Lord Hou, you let the little one enter Xianyang Palace?"

Zhang Deli never dreamed that one day he would be able to enter the Xianyang Palace once and give something to the First Emperor.

Zhang Deli suddenly felt like a dream, then shook his head, and twisted his waist with his hands...

While the pain hit, I heard Li Yu's voice, "Why are you standing there, go quickly." Only then did he regain his senses, and trot all the way to the warehouse.

Li Yu watched Zhile, so it's no wonder Zhang Deli was nervous and excited. If it was an ordinary person, and he could see the figure of the first emperor from a distance, it would be considered as smoke from the ancestral grave.

After Zhang Deli took a brocade handkerchief and came back with a small wooden box, Li Yu reluctantly took out about five yuan worth of tea and put it in.

It’s not too much, but it’s really a little less. This amount is probably only enough for people who drink strong tea in future generations.

After sharing the tea, Li Yu finally explained: "Don't look around when you enter the palace, remember to tell the person in the palace that this tea is not easy to come by, so drink it sparingly."

Hearing this, Zhang Deli quickly nodded his head like a chicken pecking at rice, and replied: "Don't worry, Lord Hou, it's easy to save, do you need to explain the details of the steps of making tea?"

Li Yu waved his hand and said, "Then there's no need, you just need to tell me to boil the tea leaves with boiling water, and then wait for the water to enter your mouth."

Zhang Deli nodded, and carefully left with the wooden box containing the tea leaves.

Only then did Li Yu murmur to himself: I just hope that Lao Zhao will not come to ask for it after drinking tea. After all, he is going to the south line soon, and he has to keep some stock.

But Zhang Deli entered Xianyang Palace with Li Yu's token of entering the palace, and arrived in front of Xianyang Palace without hindrance.

Standing outside the door, Zhang Deli didn't dare to glance around, he just felt that it was too unreal...

Sui Ting walked out of the palace a man, but it was Meng Yi whom he had seen in the Hou Mansion.

Zhang Deli quickly said: "My lord, my Lord Marquis asked me to bring some novelties to His Majesty."

Meng Yi's expression changed, and he said in surprise: "Sent by the Immortal Lord?"

"Exactly."

"Your Majesty has a heart, so what can you say to me?"

Although Meng Yi also wanted to know what novelty was in the box, but since it was given to His Majesty the First Emperor by the Immortal Marquis, he couldn't ask first.

Zhang Deli was a little nervous, and quickly recalled what Li Yu explained, and then told Meng Yi verbatim.

Hearing this, Meng Yi nodded his head, then waved his hand again, letting Huang Men take Zhang Deli out of the palace.

"Your Majesty, something sent by Junhou Li Yu."

Ying Zheng was surprised when he heard the words, and sneered, "When did this fairy prince become so smooth, he can think of me?"

Hearing what Ying Zheng said, it was obvious that he had something to say about Li Yu's usual behavior.

Unexpectedly, Li Yulong's three-linked crossbow was equipped with the guards of the Hou's mansion, and Yingzheng had eyes, but he didn't catch a single hair.

It is also a beautiful name: this equipment is too time-consuming and labor-intensive, and it is not suitable for mass production and equipment for military use.

Besides, there is a limited supply of good wine in Laoshizi Shiweiju. If it wasn't for Ying Zheng licking his old face and asking Meng Yi to ask for a few jars, I'm afraid Li Yu wouldn't want to give it.

Fortunately, now that the sun came out from the west, Li Yu actually took the initiative to send things into the palace.

However, catching up with the first time in the past 800 years made Yingzheng somewhat relieved, after all, Xian Junhou still missed himself in his heart.

Feeling relieved, Ying Zheng simply put down the notebook in his hand and said, "Open it and have a look."

After Meng Yi heard this, he put the box on the table and opened it.

What caught the eye was a brocade handkerchief.

Ying Zheng, who aroused his curiosity, couldn't help thinking: What is still wrapped in a brocade handkerchief?

But as the saying goes, the opposite of overjoyed is disappointed.

I saw a handful of tea leaves lying there quietly.

And because of the level of Li Yu's fried tea, the tea leaves are not rolled so naturally, but look a little twisted and ugly.

Ying Zheng couldn't help being taken aback, Meng Yi was also a little dumbfounded, and then remembered what the housekeeper of the Marquis Mansion had just explained, and said quickly: "Your Majesty, the Marquis has asked someone to tell you something."

"Say."

"Junhou said, this thing is called tea leaf, it is not easy to get, and it was made by Junhou himself, let your majesty save some to drink."

Meng Yi's original words were given to Ying Zheng. Looking at the things in the box that could be counted with the naked eye, he felt that Li Yu was a little too stingy...

Ying Zheng was a little surprised when he heard the words, so he questioned: "This ugly thing is actually made by Li Yu himself?"

In Ying Zheng's cognition, the impression Li Yu left on him was that it was complex, delicate, and mysterious.

Fortunately, this ugly so-called tea is actually used for drinking.
