Chapter 20: I, Qin, used to live in seclusion

Early the next morning.

As soon as it started to dawn, Qin Wenyuan and Changle got up.

Qin Wenyuan was going to the tea garden to collect something.

Changle, on the other hand, prepared meals at home so that he could have hot meals as soon as Qin Wenyuan came back.

It can be said that both of them had their own goals early in the morning.

Similarly, perhaps because they decided to plant a tea garden yesterday, both of them are full of fighting spirit.

Qin Wenyuan headed towards the tea garden early in the morning.

The tea garden is not far away and can be reached in a quarter of an hour's walk.

There is a tea garden at the door,

This is mainly because Baiyun County is known as the "Chang'an Tea Town" and most of the tea cakes used by the princes and nobles of Chang'an City to make tea come from Baiyun County.

Qin Wenyuan came to Nuo Da's tea garden and was very moved when he looked at the endless tea planting land.

Perhaps, this tea garden has a big reason why I chose to do business with tea.

He smiled and told an old man to collect some tea leaves, and the old man agreed without hesitation.

If you pick,

For tea grown in different soil conditions, the picking methods are different.

Tea leaves grown on fertile soil have thick buds and leaves. They can be picked when the new shoots grow to four or five inches, which is roughly equivalent to the maturity of one bud and five or six leaves in later generations.

And tea of ​​this level is the goal of Qin Wenyuan's trip.

Half an hour later, Qin Wenyuan picked a basket of tea leaves and went home.

As soon as I got home, I saw smoke rising from the house.

this……

Shouldn't it?

Logically speaking, I have been out for half an hour, and my wife has been cooking while I, Mr. Qin, have gone out. Now, how should I say...it has to be done, right?

Why is there still smoke?

Qin Wenyuan was slightly startled.

He walked in carrying the bamboo basket on his back.

I saw a figure squatting in front of me, holding his legs with his hands, seemingly very serious, observing the burning firewood in front of him.

"lady?"

Qin Wenyuan called out tentatively.

"ah?"

Changle trembled all over, turned around and forced a smile: "Husband, you are back."

The voice fell.

There was a slight silence in the air.

because……

Qin Wenyuan saw the lady with a dark face!!

"puff!"

He didn't pay attention and couldn't help laughing.

This made Changle feel even more ashamed.

"Madam, what did you tell me before going out in the morning?"

Qin Wenyuan glanced at it and said jokingly: "It's just steamed cakes. Don't worry about my husband. Let me finish picking the tea leaves and go home as soon as possible."

"The results of it?"

Qin Wenyuan stepped forward, wiped his dark little face with his hands, and smiled again: "Turns out, I found that our wife is a little unable to cope with it."

Changle's face turned red, "Husband, no."

"I have already prepared the steamed pancakes for our breakfast. The main reason why I started cooking now is to make some batter for you for lunch. After all, the food outside is not as careful as what we cook at home."

"It's just...the batter is more demanding than steamed cakes, so as you can see, I can't cope with it at the moment."

When Qin Wenyuan heard this, he looked at the table in surprise.

Sure enough, there were already two steamed cakes there.

It's hot and the color is quite appetizing.

Qin Wenyuan's mouth suddenly twitched. Originally, he wanted to see his wife make a fool of herself, and then teach her how to cook with a smile, so as to deepen their relationship again.

Now it seems that I really thought too much!

Madam, you didn’t give Mr. Qin a chance at all!

He really didn't expect that yesterday he just taught Changle how to make steamed cakes once, and now he could actually follow the same method, and what he made was almost the same as what he had done.

My wife is indeed extremely smart!

"Ahem, this...ma'am, please do this first. I'll be back later and I'll teach you how to make batter."

The original intention was to make fun of Chang Le, but it turned out that the clown was himself. At this moment, Qin Wenyuan was so embarrassed that he left after saying these words.

Seeing this, Changle covered his mouth and snickered.

"Bastard husband, let's see if you still dare to look down on me in the future." Chang Le laughed angrily, feeling very proud.

…………

At noon, Qin Wenyuan set off towards Chang'an with the third Luban Lock formula.

At home, Changle was left alone to process the tea leaves.

Ministry of Industry Yamen.

"Sir, Mr. Qin, he is here!" A government official shouted immediately.

Lin Youwei immediately put away the file, stood up and said, "Let's go take a look."

"No need, Mr. Lin, I'm already here." Qin Wenyuan walked in with a smile.

When Lin Youwei saw this, he also smiled and said: "Excuse me, Master Qin, for a quick trip. Master, have you brought the third formula of Lu Ban Suo?"

Because of Qin Wenyuan's request, they all called Qin Wenyuan son.

But secretly, Lin Youwei still respectfully calls Qin Wenyuan Master Qin.

As for being too young to be suitable, I'm sorry, he has never been a guy who relies on his old age to show off.

"I've brought it. If you have the fourth formula, I will deliver it in the near future. By then, our deal will be completely completed." Qin Wenyuan nodded.

Lin Youwei smiled and said, "Mr. Qin, to tell you the truth, your Luban lock formula has really helped our Ministry of Industry a lot."

"You don't even know how much your Majesty respects your generous act yesterday."

"Mr. Qin, it would be inappropriate for a great talent like you to live in seclusion in a corner of the mountains and forests. Why not..."

"Mr. Lin, stop it."

Qin Wenyuan refused directly and said: "I am used to living in seclusion."

Used to living in seclusion...

Being used to living in seclusion, Lin Youwei, the minister of the Ministry of Industry, immediately looked at Qin Wenyuan even more highly.

The two handed over work matters, and when it was time to part, Qin Wenyuan asked: "By the way, Mr. Lin, I wonder where there is a place that sells tea cakes in Chang'an."

"Tea cake?"

Lin Youwei thought for a moment and replied: "I remember there was a Ruyi Tea Cake store in the west of the city. Their shop there at that time was built with the help of our Ministry of Industry."

"It is also one of the only three tea cake shops in Chang'an. The sales volume of Ruyi Tea Cake is not very good, but it is much better than the other two."

"So, if Mr. Qin wants to buy tea cakes, theirs is better."

Qin Wenyuan smiled and nodded, and asked the other two tea cakes again, and Lin Youwei answered them one by one.

They are "Changfu" tea cakes in the south of the city and "Fenghua" tea cakes in the north of the city.

After questioning until this point, Qin Wenyuan left with a satisfactory answer.

He asked these three tea cakes mainly because he wanted to buy some and compare the taste with his own tea cakes to see whose tea cakes were more fragrant and delicious.

It is also more market competitive.

In other words, it is to understand the market in advance, which belongs to the market research of later generations.

I spent several hours running from the west to the south of the city, and from the south to the north of the city. It was sunset, and I finally bought the same piece.
