Fairy Gourd Farm

Chapter 862 A sensible sycophant
Since Zhao Lei came to the capital, he must first visit Mr. Liu.

Since taking the medicine given by Zhao Lei, the old man's spirit has become better and better. After seeing Zhao Lei, he asked him with a smile: "Xiao Zhao, you are too busy now, it is impossible to come to the capital for no reason, this time Why are you here?"

"Old man, you are really good at predicting things. I really have something to do when I come to the capital this time." Zhao Lei flattered the old man unabashedly. Even Liu Mingzhao couldn't help frowning when he heard it. Shameless.

However, Mr. Liu didn't care about it, instead he asked with a smile, "Oh, what's the big deal for you to come here in person?"

Zhao Lei answered honestly: "To tell you the truth, I am here this time to promote the fairy gourd brand Longjing."

The old man said with great interest: "So that's how it is. Do you have any samples? Give me some to try."

Liu Mingzhao told Zhao Lei solemnly: "My grandfather is also very knowledgeable about tea, so it's right to ask him to give you some advice! If you can get his praise, your fairy gourd Longjing will definitely be very popular!"

Zhao Lei said to Mr. Liu with a smile: "Master, the fairy gourd Longjing is only for fooling outsiders, I dare not give you a taste."

Unexpectedly, Mr. Liu himself proposed to taste the fairy gourd Longjing, but Zhao Lei dared to refuse in person.Not only was the old man's secretary Tang Bin secretly surprised, but even Liu Mingzhao changed color slightly, feeling that Zhao Lei was too bold.

However, before Liu Mingzhao could figure out how to help Zhao Lei, he had already continued, "However, I fried some Longjing myself, and this time I specially brought some here. It's a little bit of my heart. I hope you like it."

Mr. Liu couldn't help pointing at Zhao Lei and said with a smile: "Haha, you are really good at flattering, much better than my unworthy grandson!"

The old man's words made Liu Mingzhao dumbfounded, and he gave Zhao Lei a thumbs up helplessly, expressing his admiration for his ability to flatter.

Zhao Lei completely ignored Liu Mingzhao, and handed a small pot to Mr. Liu with a smile: "This is the tea I roasted by myself. This year, the total is less than ten catties. You are not satisfied after trying it. If you like it, I will give you more tea next year." Come a few catties."

Although the jar is not big, the tea leaves in it are at least over a catty. Mr. Liu couldn't help but nodded and said, "Xiao Zhao, you have a heart."

Zhao Lei smiled and said, "You are an elder, you should."

"Look at how sensible Xiao Zhao is!" The old man glanced at Liu Mingzhao and said, "Why are you still standing there, go make tea, you don't have any vision!"

Holding the tea jar, Liu Mingzhao went to make tea with a resentful expression on his face.

But this guy soon came back with a few cups of tea, and excitedly said to Mr. Liu, "Don't tell me, Zhao Lei's tea-frying technique seems to be pretty good, this tea is really fragrant!"

The old man ignored Liu Mingzhao, but picked up a cup of tea and looked at it for a while. He first smelled the aroma of the tea soup, and then took a sip to savor it carefully.

Seeing the contented expression on Grandpa's face, Liu Mingzhao asked him with a smile, "Am I right?"

"It's not wrong, it's a big mistake!" Mr. Liu said angrily: "This Longjing tea is the best of the best. Even I have never drank such a good tea before! Xiao Zhao can make such a good tea." Longjing, this skill is not only good, it can be called a master! You are ignorant, that's why you always make such jokes!"

Since Liu Mingzhao and Zhao Lei cooperated to set up the northern planting base, the number of times the old man scolded him has become less and less.

But every time he saw Zhao Lei, a "child from other people's family", the old man couldn't help but compare him with his grandson, so it was inevitable that Liu Mingzhao would be scolded.

Fortunately, Liu Mingzhao was also used to being scolded by the old man before, and occasionally revisiting the treatment he had before made him feel a little kind.So this guy wasn't embarrassed at all. He just took advantage of his grandfather's inattention and made a pitiful expression on Zhao Lei, expressing how unfairly he had been treated.

Zhao Lei completely ignored Liu Mingzhao, and said to Mr. Liu with a humble face: "I dare not be a national master or something, Mr. Please don't praise me, lest I be proud."

"Look, Xiao Zhao is younger than you, more capable than you, and more humble than you!" Mr. Liu said to Liu Mingzhao resentfully: "Look at you again, you are so proud of doing a little thing, I can't wait to put that His grades are written all over his face, impetuous!"

Liu Mingzhao didn't dare to refute the old man's words, so he nodded repeatedly and said: "Yes, yes, you are right, I will change it in the future, I will definitely change it!"

Zhao Lei also smiled and said: "Old man, I believe that Ming Zhao will be able to change. I will help you keep an eye on him, so don't worry!"

Mr. Liu nodded to Zhao Lei and said, "This is the best, just keep an eye on him!"

Of course, the old man also understands the principle that enough is enough, and then asked Zhao Lei: "How do you plan to promote Xianhu Longjing in the capital?"

Zhao Lei told Mr. Liu: "I heard that there will be a tea tasting party in Tiantai Temple tomorrow, and many famous tea art masters in the capital will participate. I plan to bring the fairy gourd Longjing to invite them to taste. It should not be a problem to promote Xianhu Longjing here."

Mr. Liu nodded and said, "Since Xianhu Longjing is taking the high-end route, this is indeed a good idea."

Zhao Lei took the opportunity to say good things for Liu Mingzhao: "I was not qualified to participate in this tea tasting party, but thanks to Mingzhao's help, I got an invitation card."

Liu Mingzhao nodded to the old man repeatedly and said, "Zhao Lei is right, you see, I still have some uses."

The old man glanced at Liu Mingzhao lightly and said: "You only have such a little ability, learn more from Xiao Zhao in the future!"

Mr. Liu is busy with business, so it is not easy to find time to have a cup of tea and chat with Zhao Lei and the others.So Zhao Lei said goodbye quickly, and left the old man's residence with Liu Mingzhao.

As soon as Liu Mingzhao walked out of the gate, he couldn't help sighing: "Oh, you are the child of someone else's family. The old man always compares me with you every time, and then scolds me bloody. It's really depressing!"

Zhao Lei said with a smile: "The old man did this because he cared about you. It would be too bad if he really didn't care about you!"

Only then did Liu Mingzhao nod with joy on his face and said, "What you said makes sense, and I'm in a much better mood now, haha!"

That evening Zhao Lei went to school to see Li Qian and had dinner with the girl.It's a pity that it's not the weekend these days, and Li Qian can't stay off-campus, so Zhao Lei sent her back to school after dinner.

Zhao Lei's move also made Li Qian understand that he has always been thinking about herself.So even though they didn't get along for a long time, it made the girl feel very happy.

Early the next morning, Zhao Lei and Liu Mingzhao went to Tiantai Temple to participate in the tea tasting party.
