Fairy Gourd Farm

Chapter 296 Under the Lion Peak
According to Zhao Lei's thinking, Xianhu brand products must be high-quality products.Either the tea garden will not be established, or if it is to be established, the foundation must be laid from the very beginning.

Ever since he learned about the [-] imperial Longjing tea trees by the West Lake and on the Lion Peak, Zhao Lei planned to use these imperial tea trees as the mother plants of the tea garden.

Although Zhao Lei has Xianlu in his hand, even ordinary varieties can produce top-quality tea, but if the starting point is higher, the quality of tea in the future will definitely be better.

Zhao Lei has always been a man of action. After thinking about this, he immediately decided to go to Hangzhou as soon as possible to get some seedlings for the tea garden he was about to start building.

But before setting off, Zhao Lei met with the designer sent by Li Litang.

The designer's name is Hao Wei. He is in his 40s and looks like a successful person.Hao Wei introduced himself as the chief designer of Li Litang Company. He led the design of many real estate projects of Tianheng Real Estate Company, and many of them won national and provincial design awards.

Li Litang sent the company's dignified chief designer to design a villa for Zhao Lei, which is enough to show how much he attaches importance to this matter.

The two exchanged some pleasantries, and Zhao Lei took Hao Wei to the homestead he asked for from the village, and asked him to see the surrounding environment.

Hao Wei's face was full of appreciation, and he said to Zhao Lei full of praise: "The environment here is really good, the scenery is beautiful, and it is quiet in the middle of the noise. As long as a concrete road is paved around the hillside, it can be connected to the village and used to build The villa couldn't be better."

Zhao Lei said with a smile, "I like this place very much too, so please take care of Mr. Hao."

Hao Wei hurriedly said: "Mr. Zhao, don't worry. Mr. Li told me when I came here that I must do my best to satisfy you. Just tell me what you want from the villa. I knew it well when I designed it."

"The requirements for the villa..." Zhao Lei pondered: "The most important points are two points, comfort and simplicity, in addition, the height should not exceed three floors, and there should be a large terrace where you can enjoy the surrounding scenery. "

"No problem." Hao Wei carefully wrote down Zhao Lei's request, and then asked him, "Are there any other requests?"

Zhao Lei looked at the homestead and said, "The village has granted me two acres of land here, so I don't need to use all of it to build a villa. How about building a small garden besides the garage? Actually, it doesn't need to be very big, there is a land of more than one mu. Points are enough."

Hao Wei said with a smile: "Of course, if you are dissatisfied, say that garden design is also my strong point, and I guarantee that you will be satisfied."

Zhao Lei nodded and said: "Okay, let's do this first, and I will leave the villa to you."

"Mr. Zhao is too polite." Hao Wei said to Zhao Lei: "I'll go back and make the design drawings and renderings first, and then I'll ask for your opinion."

After seeing off Hao Wei, Zhao Lei also set off for Hangzhou.Considering that Lion Peak is located in the outskirts of Hangzhou, it would be much more convenient to have a car, so this time Zhao Lei drove a pickup.

Fortunately, the highway traffic is very developed now, and it is very convenient to drive from Xinwu to Hangzhou by taking the high speed.Zhao Lei arrived in Hangzhou three hours later, and arrived at Longjing Village at the foot of Lion Peak before evening.

You can tell just by looking at the name that this is the most authentic West Lake Longjing production area.West Lake Longjing produced within the scope of Longjing Village has always been sought after by many tea lovers.At this time of year, tea merchants from all over the world gather here to snap up the new tea that will be on the market.

So when Zhao Lei came to Longjing Village, he was surprised to find that it was very lively.The parking lot at the entrance of the village was full of vehicles, and there were license plates from all over the country. It was like a domestic license plate exhibition.

Most of the villagers in Longjing Village are tea farmers, but at this time of year, the villagers will also act as hostesses of homestays, renting their spare rooms to tea merchants from all over the place.

Of course, Zhao Lei couldn't avoid the custom. He first found a place to live in a tea farmer's family, and then asked the other party about the eighteen Longjing imperial tea trees.

The tea farmer was a middle-aged man with dark complexion. He proudly said to Zhao Lei: "So you also know those eighteen tea trees. These are the treasures on the Lion Peak. It is said that they are the ancestors of all Longjing teas. These eighteen tea trees The entrance of the Tea Immortal Temple on the mountainside has been fenced with railings in the past few years, except for the old grandson who takes care of the tea trees, most people are not allowed to enter the fence.”

Zhao Lei asked with great interest: "Have the eighteen imperial tea trees started to pick tea now?"

The tea farmer said solemnly: "These tea trees are too old, and the trees are getting weaker and weaker. Last year, Lao Suntou only picked a little tea, and I am afraid that there will be less tea this year."

Speaking of this, the tea farmer persuaded Zhao Lei seriously: "Young man, if you want to buy the tea leaves from those eighteen imperial tea trees, I advise you not to bother, as you will definitely not be able to buy them. Why don't you take a look at my tea leaves Well, they are all freshly harvested Mingqian teas, and they will definitely not let you suffer."

Zhao Lei shook his head with a smile and said, "Actually, I didn't come here to buy tea, I just came here because of the fame, and I just wanted to see the eighteen Longjing imperial tea plants."

Seeing that Zhao Lei was not interested in tea, the tea farmer didn't force him when he arrived. He just told Zhao Lei the time for the three meals and left to do his own business.

It's getting late now, Zhao Lei is going to go up the mountain tomorrow.After eating the dinner provided by the owner of the homestay, he went back to his room early to rest.

After carefully locking the door, Zhao Lei began to do his daily homework—entering the calabash space to practice the Sanqingxin method.

It is clearly stated on the jade tablet that only when one begins to cultivate the third level can one truly step into the threshold of cultivation.

However, compared with the first two levels of mind, this third level of mind is very difficult to cultivate.Zhao Lei has been practicing for a while, and he has been taking Xianlu to help, but the progress has been very slow.

However, Zhao Lei also knew that the journey of cultivation was already full of difficulties, so he practiced harder, hoping to make some progress.

However, after practicing for several hours, the progress was still as slow as before, almost no change was noticed, which made Zhao Lei very helpless.

Zhao Lei made do with one night at the B&B, and went up the mountain early the next morning to see the eighteen Longjing imperial tea trees.

The tea farmer told Zhao Lei that the royal tea tree is located on the mountainside of Lion Peak, and there is a winding road that can directly reach there.However, the locals prefer to take the trails, and walking can save a lot of time.

Zhao Lei often climbs mountains at home, so of course he chooses to take the path.Lion Peak is worthy of being a mountain in the West Lake Scenic Area. The scenery along the way is beautiful and the environment is elegant, which is much more beautiful than the mountains behind Sanhe Village.

Zhao Lei admired the beautiful scenery of the Lion Peak all the way, and it didn't take long before he arrived in front of the Tea Immortal Temple and saw the true faces of the eighteen Longjing imperial tea trees.
