When Mu Yan and Huo Xi went to see Chen Cha's Golden Flower, they took the first step to let Li Yikan and others spread the news about Huo Xi being kidnapped by Jun Mingzhang in the city.
Originally, Mu Yan wanted to cover up the news and let the world criticize him, but he didn't want Huo Xi to be harmed by some gossip. He didn't allow it.
If the Jun family is captured, the news will naturally not be revealed.
Unexpectedly, the news had been leaked before. He ordered people to investigate and found out that it was spread by people in Aunt Jun's courtyard. Mu Yan didn't have time to deal with it.
All the unfavorable news for Huo Xi stopped when they returned to the city.
After all, it is a rumor, and I don’t know whether it is true or not. Now that the Crown Prince and his wife have returned to the city, firstly, they want to see that the Crown Prince’s wife is safe, and secondly, they are also afraid that the Crown Prince will come to settle matters with them.
Mu Yan remained cold and did not deal with it.
After hearing what Yu said this time, the couple thought it was right.
After Jun Mingzhang died, the Jun family felt resentment in their hearts. They were afraid that they could no longer coexist peacefully with Mu Yan, so they would resort to some means secretly. Mr. Yu was right, it is better to block than to block.
"Don't be afraid, your husband is here for you."
Huo Xi looked at him, "I'm not afraid. I'm not a chaste and martyr woman. If someone grabs my arm, I will die to prove my will. Even if I lose my innocence, I will walk around openly in front of the world and live an upright and bright life. Even if I am alone
.”
The corner of Mu Yan's mouth raised, "How can you be alone? You still have me. No matter what, you are just you. You are my wife." She is my heart and liver. I can live with you here.
A small courtyard in the west of the city.
Seeing the arrival of the crown prince and his wife, Xunwu was very happy, "Prince, come in and take a look, it's amazing. This is the first time I see golden flowers on Chen Cha! It turns out that this Chen tea has golden mold.
If you throw it into the ground and use it as fertilizer, it will taste better."
Mu Yan strode into the room filled with old tea, "Why is it so hot in the room?"
Huo Xi followed him, "Is it hot and humid?"
Mu Yan looked at her, "Is it possible that only such an environment can produce golden flowers?"
Xun Wu spoke excitedly and nodded quickly: "Exactly. Madam asked us to try it before, so we tried it back and forth. If the tea leaves are not kept well, they will become moldy, so we made the room humid. But we found that this was not enough, and the room was even worse.
Only when it's hot outside can more golden flowers bloom."
Huo Xi nodded, "Exactly, it can only be achieved if it's cold on the outside and hot on the inside, dry on the outside and damp on the inside."
When Huo Xi tried making rock sugar on Zhuangzi before, he was already very good at controlling the temperature. He told Xunwu some of the key points, and he led others to try it over and over again. Unexpectedly, it worked.
Mu Yan took the tea cake in his hand and looked at it carefully. He put it to his nose and smelled it again. He pointed at the small golden particles on the tea cake and said, "Is this the golden flower? I really thought it was blooming."
"These little ones don't look like golden flowers blooming?" She glared at him. A flower must bloom with big petals to be called a flower. "Do you smell a musty smell?" Huo Xi looked at him.
Mu Yan took a sniff and said, "There is no musty smell, but there is a lot of moisture." His face was full of doubts, is this tea really drinkable?
"Don't look disgusted, these are treasures. You will know after they boil the water and make the tea soup. And the blooming is an important process for this tea. Wait until it stops blooming.
Then dry it, press it into tea cakes and tea bricks, and then sell it."
Mu Yan expressed doubts, "Can this really be sold? Is this really not mold?"
Huo Xi glared at him because he didn't understand.
"Do you know what fungi are? How can the fungi growing in the forest grow without seeds? It's the mycelium that grows from dead branches and leaves that slowly grows fungi. There are good fungi and there are bad fungi.
This kind of golden flower is a kind of probiotic that is very beneficial to the human body. So drinking this kind of tea will have many benefits."
"Probiotics?"
He understood that the hyphae of mushrooms may be the same thing as seeds, but what are these probiotics? Mu Yan took the tea cake in his hand and looked at it again and again.
Li Yikaner, who was following him, also turned over and over to look at the tea cakes in his hands, and Xunwu also listened half-comprehensively.
It doesn't matter if he doesn't understand, he is happy. Madam said that, she really knows about this tea. Someone really sells this tea, and it is a good tea that can be sold at a high price!
"Your Majesty, we don't know much, so don't torture us blindly. Anyway, Madam says it's a good thing. Last time Madam bought a full 20,000 kilograms in Yibang! We really made a big mistake this time, alone.
This family's business will be sold to the Western Region of Xifan, and we can bring back more horses in exchange!"
Those Zhuang soldiers also need horses. Good horses will be confiscated, so it's okay to exchange for more middle-class horses. Besides, with the name of the prince around, a few more good horses can be kept.
"Do you want to change horses?" Huo Xi asked him.
"That's the plan." Mu Yan looked at her, "Exchange for more, and transport it back to the Central Plains to exchange for gold and silver. It's all up to you."
Huo Xi opened his mouth, but seeing that there were many people in the room, he didn't say anything.
"Your Majesty, Madam, the tea is ready."
"Come on, let's go have tea. My husband is also here to see if you really made a big mistake this time."
The tea was brewed, and everyone was not in a hurry to drink it. They all looked at the tea soup in the tea cup.
He saw that the tea soup was red and clear, and smelled a faint pleasant fragrance. "Does it have a faint fragrance of yellow flowers?" Huo Xi asked him.
Mu Yan nodded, "It smells like flowers. This tea soup looks good."
"Then, can I lie to you?" Huo Xi looked proud. As he spoke, he picked up the teacup to drink, but Mu Yan snatched it away.
First he took a sip, then smacked it in his mouth to savor the taste without saying anything. Then he took another sip and his eyebrows relaxed.
"How's it going?" This guy has tasted all kinds of good tea. If he's not satisfied with it, he's afraid he won't be able to sell it at a high price.
Mu Yan turned to look at her, saw her nervous expression, and laughed, "Good tea."
"That's it?" Huo Xi was dissatisfied.
"The aftertaste is sweet and smooth." Yes, it can be sold at a high price. It seems that his Xi'er has really missed the mark again this time.
When Huo Xi heard this, his heart suddenly fell to the ground. He picked up the tea cup in front of him and took a sip, then took another sip and thought, "This is the taste."
"Have you drank?"
Huo Xi was stunned, "Of course I have drunk it. I drank it in Yibang before and decided to buy it all."
Mu Yan glanced at her but said nothing. He turned around and drank all the tea soup in the teacup.
Li Yikan and others tasted it carefully, their eyes brightened, "Your Majesty, this is really good tea! This tea looks like it has been affected by moisture, has mold and seems to be unwanted by others, but this tea
Once you soak it, you will realize that it is really a good thing."
"Really? It's good tea!"
Xunwu was very excited. Even the crown prince said it was good tea, so it must be good tea. It was true that he had been studying behind closed doors these days, and it was almost growing into a mushroom in the house.
"Your Majesty, Madam, what is the price of this tea?"
Huo Xi looked at Mu Yan.
Mu Yan pondered for a moment, "The tea horse master transported good tea to Xifan and exchanged it for horses. One hundred and twenty kilograms of good tea can be exchanged for a good horse. Here we are..."
"Fu tea."
"Fu tea?"
Huo Xi grabbed his big palm and wrote on it for him to read. This Fu tea? He thought for a moment: "Fu tea? It's better to call it Fu tea. Firstly, it has a good meaning, and secondly, it can also deceive people."
"Fucha? It's very good. The name given by the Crown Prince is very suitable."
So, it was decided that this kind of tea with golden flowers was called Fu Tea.
Mu Yan added: "Since this is our only business, we cannot lower its value... Let's trade it at the price of eighty pounds for a good horse."
