Datang: Huchi served as a bodyguard, but refused to enter the court as an official

The more he thought about it, the more depressed he became, and he poured tea as if to relieve his hatred.

The tea that the Liu family entertained guests was the same as the one in Liu Yexuan. Dai Zhou had long understood that this new type of tea could not have been made by Chai Lingwu, it must have been made by Liu Bai.

"A pot of three pennies worth of money, you have to drink it back! My "Spring Outing"" Dai Zhou thought in his heart.

The servant who served next to him added water seven or eight times in a row, looking at Dai Zhou as if he was watching a psychosis.

"Haha, it's a great honor for Mr. Dai to visit the humble house. I don't know what's the reason for your visit today?"

Liu Bai Shiran walked in.

Dai Zhou immediately stood up, cupped his hands and said, "Dai is here to thank Mr. Liu! If Mr. Liu hadn't helped Mr. Dai that day, I'm afraid Dai would have failed His Majesty's entrustment. Now, the Cui family has pleaded guilty. fortunate!"

"Master Dai is too polite!"

As Liu Bai said, he glanced at Dai Zhou's teacup, frowned and said to his servant: "How do you entertain Master Dai with this kind of tea? Hurry up and get the 'Wonder Fairy Hair'!"

Noon cents?

Dai Zhou was slightly taken aback, is there any better tea?

But before he could ask any questions, the servant had already rushed out. Not long after, he brought over a delicate small pot, carefully took out a few pieces of tea leaves from the pot, and after adding hot water, the elegant aroma instantly filled the entire hall !

Faintly, there is also some unique fragrance of flowers and fruits!

Dai Zhou didn't bother to ask, and couldn't wait to take a sip. The sweet and mellow taste seemed to spread to the whole body, and his mind was empty.

"His-"

Dai Zhou took a deep breath, feeling like he was about to float up.

“Good tea!!”

The tea I drank at Liuyexuan yesterday was considered a supreme delicacy, but the tea I drank now is even more delicious!

Looking at Dai Zhou's appearance like drinking fairy wine, Liu Bai smiled, "This tea is called 'Wuzi Xianhao', which is carefully roasted from the thousand-year-old tree deep in the high mountains of the Qinling Mountains. Liu also just got it, Mr. Dai, does it taste good?"

"It's not just good, it's simply superb!"

Dai Zhou nodded hurriedly, then took a few more sips, savoring it carefully.

Liu Bai smiled slightly, and waved for the servant to take the tea pot down.

Dai Zhou watched the servant take away the tea pot, and felt extremely reluctant. This feeling was just like sending away "The Picture of Outing in Spring".

"Master Liuliu, I don't know if this 'Wonder Fairy Hair' is for sale?"

Liu Bai said with a troubled face: "The cost of this tea is extremely high. I'm afraid it won't be able to be sold publicly in a short time. Liu only has this little stock in stock."

"Mr. Liu, Mr. Liu, please give up your love. This pot of tea Dai really likes it. You can ask for a price, Mr. Liu!"

Dai Zhou spoke hastily.

It's just that after I finished speaking, I felt a little regretful.

Liu Yexuan's tea is the cheapest one in three pots, so the 'Wu Zi Xian Hao' must be more expensive!

He blushed and added another sentence.

"As long as Dai can afford it"

Liu Bai was even more 'difficult'.

After hesitating for a moment, he sighed slightly, and said: "To tell the truth, Mr. Dai, Liu intended to keep it for himself to enjoy, but a gentleman should appreciate the beauty of adults. Since Mr. Dai likes this tea so much, let's sell it to Mr. Dai!"

Dai Zhou was overjoyed and hurriedly stood up and cupped his hands to express his thanks.

"I wonder what the price of this tea is?"

"The cost of one tael of tea is one hundred guan, and there are only three liang in this jar. Even if Liu gives Master Dai a favor, the total is 280 guan!"

hiss--

Dai Zhou took a deep breath.

280 guan, enough to buy a house, but it's only worth three liang of tea?

For this, Liu Bai still gave him a favor, otherwise the cost alone would be a full three hundred guan!

It is dozens of times more expensive than the tea in Liuyexuan!

It was worth more than half a year's salary!

But if I miss this opportunity, if I want to drink "Wuzi Xianhao" again, I don't know that I have to wait until the year of the monkey.

He twisted his leg hard, and squeezed out a sentence through his teeth.

"Okay, I'll buy it! I will order someone to come over tomorrow and send money to Mr. Liu!"

Chapter 56: Terrible Tea Reserves, Continue to Rise in Prices

"Hey, what did Master Dai say? Why are you in such a hurry? Master Dai can take the tea away first. If you have time, send someone to give you money!"

Liu Bai directly ordered the servants to hand over the tea pot to Dai Zhou.

This moved Dai Zhou badly.

Straightforward, he thinks that Liu Bai has always adhered to the rule of paying the money and delivering the goods. The Cui family's criminal evidence and "You Chun Tu" are the best examples.

But now, he can take away the tea leaves worth 280 guan, which is equivalent to breaking Liu Bai's own rules.

If you are not a close friend, how can you easily break the rules?

Dai Zhou held the teapot tightly, and said solemnly: "Young Master Liu, you will be Dai's friend in the future. If something happens, Dai will definitely not refuse!"

Liu Bai was taken aback.

Where is this going?

Dai Zhou was asked to take it away first because he was too lazy to find the pot of tea again.

The Liu family now has so much tea that there is no place to put it, and told Dai Zhou that this kind of tea is precious, but it is just an ordinary means of doing business.

Why did Dai Zhou put on the look of a scholar dying for his confidant?

"It's easy to say!" Liu Bai said with a smile.

Anyway, in the future, when Dai Zhou is needed, people rush to help, and fools will refuse.

Dai Zhou thanked Liu Bai for a long time, then gave the gift he had prepared, and left before it was almost time for lunch.

On the carriage, Dai Zhou still hugged the tea pot tightly and did not let go.

"Don't let those old guys see it!"

Dai Zhou knew very well that once Fang Xuanling and the others found out that he had better tea in his hand, they would not let it go easily.

After searching around in the carriage, he finally hid the tea pot under the seat, and he breathed a sigh of relief.

He was very pleased with himself, and made up his mind that after returning home, he must enjoy this bit of tea alone and not leave any of it to others.

Liu family mansion!

After seeing off Dai Zhou, Liu Bai came to a big room in the backyard.

There are dozens of huge wooden shelves in the room, which are full of tea leaves!

After Chai Lingwu researched the technique of frying tea, Liu Bai sent seven or eight caravans to other places to buy tea, and they gained a lot.

Now, in this hidden tea room, there are not only clear tea exclusively sold by Liu Yexuan, but also several new teas.

If Dai Zhou saw this scene, he might turn around and fight Liu Bai desperately.

Because on the shelf, there are hundreds of identical tea jars, all of which have the four characters of 'Wuzi Xianhao' written on them!

"Have you finished counting?" Liu Bai asked.

Cheng Chumo came out from behind a wooden frame, holding a ledger in his hand, and flipped through a few pages.

"A total of 420 catties of clear tea, 120 catties of Wuzi Xianhao, [-] catties of Ziyang Maojian, er, [-] catties of Jingyang Fu tea and [-] catties"

Cheng Chu stumbled silently, and read the numbers he had counted.

After finishing speaking, he tapped his head and said with a bitter face: "Brother Liu, I have counted all morning, and there are still several kinds that have not been counted."

Liu Bai knew that he wanted to be lazy, so he didn't accept him, and said directly: "Transport all the tea at home to Liu Yexuan, and continue to count the rest!"

After speaking, he turned and walked out.

Back in the study, Liu Bai stroked his chin and began to think about how to price the other types of tea.

"A pot of ordinary clear tea has three guan, and other kinds of tea, no matter how many times higher"

The price of tea cannot be cheap, because it is not something ordinary people can afford.

On the contrary, rich and noble families all pay attention to ostentation, and rare things are more expensive, and the higher the price, the better it will be sold.

This is the same reason that people in later generations buy diamonds.

It was originally a shiny stone, but after hype, it has become a status symbol, and many people flock to it.

Liu Bai pondered for a while, then wrote it down on paper.

"Wu Zi Xian Hao, 120 guan for a pot, [-] guan for a tael of tea!"

"Ziyang Maojian, one pot of twelve guan, one liang of tea leaves in one hundred guan!"

""

After finishing writing, he copied a copy and said, "Xu Chu, send someone to send the price list to Liu Yexuan and tell Chai Lingwu to hang up the sign first, but the specific sale time will not be announced yet!"

"Yes, Master!"

There are many more people in Liu Yexuan today than yesterday.

Overnight, the fame of Qingcha and "Journey to the West" not only spread throughout Jingyang, but also in several surrounding counties and even Chang'an.

From the first floor to the fourth floor, I can't wait for every corner to be occupied by people.

Only another private tea room on the fifth floor was still vacant.

"Open the door for business, why don't you let us go up to the fifth floor? I'll pay you a hundred guan!"

"I hit 120!"

"150 guan!"

""

Those who couldn't find a place shouted one after another, asking for higher prices to go to the fifth floor.

A group of boys explained repeatedly, saying nothing to let them go up.

This is what Liu Bai ordered a long time ago.

The private tea room on the fifth floor can only be used by important people.

Ordinary merchants can't go there no matter how rich they are.

Fang Xuanling and the others who were sitting in the private tea room could not hear what the people below were shouting.

There has been a buddy for a long time, put down the bamboo curtain, and the private tea room becomes a world of its own.

A woman in plain clothes played the piano and sang in a low voice, covering all the noise outside.

At this time, the bamboo curtain was lifted, and Dai Zhou came in hurriedly.

"Xuanyin sit down quickly, count the time, Mr. Storyteller will be on stage soon!" Fang Xuanling said with a smile.

Dai Zhou cupped his hands around and sat down.

Picking up the teacup and taking a sip, although the fragrance is still there, it is still not as good as the 'Wuzi Xianhao' that I just got.

He became more beautiful in his heart, and a smile appeared on his face unconsciously.

Gradually, the downstairs became quiet.

The maid put away the guqin, rolled up the bamboo curtain, and retreated.

Everyone was shocked and looked towards the first floor at the same time.

Sure enough, Shi Shiran, the middle-aged rat-bearded man from yesterday, walked up to the high platform, followed by two boys carrying display racks.

Unlike yesterday, he didn't directly start telling the story, but moved the display stand to the front.

"Thank you for your support, guest officials. Before telling the story, let me introduce a few new teas that our store will produce!"
