Hearing Ye Fan's words, the whole audience was slightly silent at first, and then everyone burst into laughter.
Obviously no one thought Ye Fan had this ability.
You know, the fifth-grade herbal tea is already the best on the market, and the Shen family relied on it for thirty years.
Once the eighth-level herbal tea is produced, it will definitely sweep the entire beverage market and even become a Chinese unicorn competing with Coke.
How could Ye Fan have such a secret recipe? How could Ye Fan prepare such herbal tea?
"Eighth-level herbal tea? Ye Fan, who do you think you are?"
Zhang Xiuxue sneered: "You are a child from a poor family. What kind of herbal tea do you know? You are still at level eight."
Shen Baodong also stared at Ye Fan and sneered: "If you can prepare an eighth-level herbal tea, I will admit that I stole your secret recipe and will immediately kowtow to you and my son to admit my mistake."
"Haha, this Ye Fan is so loud. He can't even reach level 8 or even level 3."
"Looking at his country bumpkin appearance, he only peeks at my thighs and doesn't know anything about herbal tea."
"Oh, he also looked at my breasts. They are really a piece of shit. He has never seen such a beautiful woman like us."
"Oh, we young ladies are at a loss if we are looked at by him like this..."
The female members of the Shen family who were watching all around laughed at Ye Fan, with looks of contempt and disdain on their faces.
Shen Biqin was also startled when she heard Ye Fan preparing the eighth-grade herbal tea. She grabbed Ye Fan and whispered: "Ye Fan..."
"Stop talking nonsense!"
Ye Fan told his mother not to worry, and then looked at Shen Baodong and the others sharply:
"If I prepare an eighth-level herbal tea, does that mean that my mother didn't steal your secret recipe?"
"If the configured eighth-level herbal tea has the same medicinal properties as the upgraded version of Grandma's herbal tea, does that mean Shen Baodong stole from us?"
Ye Fan stepped forward and stared at Grandma: "When it comes time to prove that Shen Baodong is a bastard, will Grandma be able to deal with it impartially?"
"Ye Fan, stop whining."
The great-grandma sat up slightly, and a cold light shot out of her eyes: "If you want to humiliate yourself, I will help you."
"If you have the ability, prepare an eighth-level herbal tea in front of everyone."
"As long as you can get it out, I will publicly declare that Shen Biqin is innocent and the real thief is Shen Baodong!"
"I would even break one of his legs with my own hands using a cane."
"But if you can't prepare it, then you two are thieves and house thieves."
"I will not only ask the police to deal with you severely, but I will also ask Mr. Wang and others to break your limbs before Song passes."
"Do you dare to respond to what I say?"
Grandma is also one of the founders of herbal tea. She doesn’t believe that Ye Fan can prepare an eighth-grade herbal tea. How can an inexperienced boy prepare it?
"Okay, then it's settled, everyone will bear witness."
Ye Fan waved his hand, then wrote a series of raw materials and threw them to the old man with wind ears:
"Help me find these herbs and equipment, and I will cook them for you in public."
He wasn't worried about the secret recipe being revealed. It only had the names of the ingredients on it, but no specific portions were written on it.
Grandma waved her left hand: "Go!"
The old man Zhao Feng Er quickly went to collect the raw materials on the list. Everything Ye Fan wanted was available in the manor, so he quickly got it together.
Then, another set of professional cooking equipment was pushed into the hall.
Ye Fan didn't waste any time. He processed the raw materials as quickly as possible, then asked his mother to do the work, and started cooking it in less than ten minutes.
"Pretend, pretend, keep pretending, see how long he can pretend."
"That's right, the gestures for preparing herbal tea look like a rookie at first glance, and you're still level 8."
"It will be cooked later and everyone will vomit as soon as they drink it. What do you think he will look like?"
"I don't want to drink it. The herbal tea made by Diaosi is not qualified to enter my mouth."
When the onlookers saw Ye Fan cooking, they scoffed. Either the gesture was wrong, the spoon was too small, or the heat was too high. In short, they were sarcastic.
During this period, several herbal tea appraisers also walked in. They sat on either side of Grandma and stared at Ye Fan with very unconcerned expressions.
Ye Fan ignored them at all and just concentrated on making herbal tea.
Although there are dozens of ingredients for making eighth-level herbal tea, which seems very troublesome, there is still no problem for Ye Fan.
After getting a little familiar with it, he sped up the process, and in less than two hours, a large pot of herbal tea was made.
Ye Fan brought dozens of porcelain bowls, filled them all, and asked dozens of Shen family members and appraisers to each have a bowl.
This eighth-level herbal tea is emerald green in color, looks like sugar cane water, and is filled with a pleasant fragrance.
Everyone's appetite was greatly increased, but no one spoke first, fearing that they would become guinea pigs.
Zhang Xiuxue sneered: "What is this? Can you drink it?"
Shen Baodong also looked disdainful: "What's the difference between it and roadside sugar cane water? It's not of the highest quality."
The rest of the people had similar expressions and seemed to have appetites, but it was too far away to reach level eight herbal tea.
"Don't talk nonsense. Once you taste it, you will know whether it has reached level eight."
Ye Fan's voice turned cold: "In addition to its ability to clear away heat and increase internal heat, it can treat minor illnesses and pains. It can also resolve liver stagnation and grievances and relieve mood."
"It sounds like the real thing."
Grandma snorted disdainfully, took a deep breath, and waved to several appraisers: "Mr. Qin, you guys try it."
She didn't even want to drink the herbal tea prepared by Ye Fan.
The other Shen family members also had similar expressions, not wanting to be guinea pigs themselves.
"OK."
The four appraisers took disapproval and put the eighth-grade herbal tea to their lips.
As soon as the herbal tea came close, the fragrance rushed into their mouths and noses, making them unable to stop their lips from approaching and enjoying it with their eyes closed.
They originally planned to spit out the herbal tea as soon as they entered the mouth. After all, it was impossible for Ye Fan to prepare an eighth-grade herbal tea.
But once they drank, they couldn't control themselves at all.
A sense of freedom and joy emanates from my heart.
It feels like I am a bird in the sky, flying freely.
As if he were a fish in the river, jumping up carefree.
Waves of joyful and comfortable freedom and joy arise spontaneously from the bottom of my heart, and all kinds of depression and unhappiness in my heart are swept away in an instant.
"Um?"
Grandma Tai, Shen Baodong and Zhang Xiuxue were waiting to see Ye Fan's joke. However, they were soon dumbfounded.
Because, they saw the appraiser’s eyes shining, his body trembling, and then he stood up and shouted:
"It's pleasant, it's pleasant, it's such a good tea."
The four people were very excited: "Centennial herbal tea, century-old herbal tea."
"Is this...could it be...really delicious?"
Seeing the gaffe of the four appraisers, the pupils of dozens of Shen family members all shrank.
"impossible!"
Shen Baodong and Zhang Xiuxue's expressions changed greatly.
They picked it up and drank it, then their eyes showed fear.
"Appraiser, what's the result?"
At this time, even Grandma couldn't hold back her anger.
Mr. Qin controlled his emotions and replied: "Go back to Grandma, this herbal tea does have eight levels!"
"Level 8!"
"Level 8!"
"Level 8!"
The other appraisers also gave their ratings, and all of them looked very excited.
"Oh my god, what kind of herbal tea is this? Why does it taste so good? I feel so refreshed after drinking it."
"The bubble in my mouth doesn't hurt anymore, it's fine..."
"My stomach pain just now has disappeared. This herbal tea is so effective..."
"It's so delicious and powerful. It's worthy of being an eighth-grade herbal tea."
At this moment, the members of the Shen family also picked up the herbal tea and drank it. The original disdain and contempt all turned into shock, disbelief, and excitement.
Grandma held it up tremblingly and took a sip unwillingly.
The next second, she flicked her wrist, and with a bang, the porcelain bowl fell into pieces.
Tea juice all over the floor.
Everyone looked at Ye Fan, never expecting that he had actually prepared the eighth-level herbal tea.
The former rookie suddenly became a master. If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, they wouldn't believe it to death.
"Shen Baodong, what else do you have to say?"
In the silence of the entire audience, Ye Fan took a step forward and stared at Shen Baodong and the others:
"The sixth-level herbal tea was originally presented to the Shen family by my mother as compensation for leaking the secret recipe twenty years ago."
"In the end, you deceived her into taking it as your own, and you also framed her for stealing the secret recipe, trying to erase her contribution."
He drank out: "Now, the eighth-level herbal tea is placed in front of you, what else do you have to say?"
Shen Baodong and Zhang Xiuxue looked ugly.
Shen Biqin let out a long breath. Not only did she feel proud, but she was also happy that Ye Fan had sought justice without fighting.
"Grandma, did you just say that you would break Shen Baodong's leg?"
Ye Fan looked at his great-grandmother again and said: "You are the head of the family, now I ask you to seek justice."
He gave the Shen family one last chance.
Shen Baodong subconsciously shouted: "Grandma——"
Grandma stood up and looked at Ye Fan with a cold smile:
"Ye Fan, you can improve upon Shen Baodong's sixth-grade herbal tea and create this eighth-grade herbal tea that is rare in a century. I have to say that you are very talented in herbal tea."
"You write down the secret recipe of our Shen family's eighth-level herbal tea and keep it. We will not hold your mother responsible for stealing the secret recipe or you for hurting others, and we will give her a chance to return to the Shen family."
"Otherwise, I will call the police and arrest you..."
Shen Biqin's face turned pale, and her family belief instantly collapsed...
