Chapter 1524

Chapter 1524

Shen Wan remembered that she had eaten a lot of dishes made with tea leaves in the past, so she went to talk to Zhao Wuniang and asked her to think about making it.

Zhao Wuniang was still a very talented person. She made tea eggs on the same day. Everyone felt very good after eating them. Shen Wan even had some sent to the Yun family.

As dusk fell, the Yun family served dinner.

"What kind of egg is this?" Mrs. Yun sat down and asked, pointing to the sauce-colored egg on the plate with some lines that looked like amber.

When she asked, Yun Luochuan, Yun Changfeng and Wu all looked at the bowl of eggs on the table.

Wu smiled and said, "Isn't this braised egg?"

Mrs. Yun said: "Look, the color is not as dark as the braised eggs!"

The maid smiled and said, "These are called tea eggs. Mrs. Shen sent them over this afternoon. There were quite a few. We all ate one. They were delicious."

Tea eggs, tea eggs, as the name suggests, are eggs made from tea leaves.

The Yun family all found it very novel, and even Yun Yun Luochuan's face showed a bit of novelty.

"This tea can also be used to boil eggs? This is the first time I've heard of it." Wu said with a red smile, not knowing what the eggs cooked with tea would taste like.

The maid first picked one for Mrs. Yun. The old lady was old and her hands were shaking when holding such round eggs with chopsticks, so she scooped it up with a spoon and brought it to her mouth.

After tasting it, Mrs. Yun commented: "It has a braised aroma, but the braised aroma is lighter than that of braised eggs. It also has a refreshing tea aroma, so it tastes good."

After hearing her comment, Yun Changfeng, Wu and Yun Luochuan also hurriedly took one.

Yun Changfeng couldn't help but nodded and said: "It's really good. I didn't expect that this tea can also be used to make tea eggs."

Speaking of tea, Yun Changfeng couldn't help but look at the tea eggs in the bowl and sighed, "The price of tea collected by tea merchants from other places has been set this year."

"How much is it?" As soon as Wu heard his tone, she knew that the price must have dropped again.

"Fifteen articles for one leaf and one bud, and eight articles for all others."

Upon hearing this price, not only Mrs. Wu changed her face, but also Mrs. Yun's face changed.

"This price is too low! How can the tea farmers live like this?" Mrs. Yun put down her chopsticks and said angrily.

Yun Luochuan frowned and said: "The quality of our Jiangzhou tea has always been the best, why is it sold so cheaply?"

When he was in the Imperial City before, he also saw the tea leaves in Jiangzhou. Even ordinary tea leaves cost five or six hundred yuan per pound.

One leaf and one bud is regarded as the top quality tea, but to charge only fifteen cents is too much.

"What's the price of our tea this year?" Wu asked looking at Yun Changfeng.

Yun Changfeng said: "Those regular customers have also lowered their prices. One leaf and one bud is 25 cents, and the other 18 cents are 30 cents in previous years."

"Dad, have you ever thought about taking the tea to nearby prefectures and counties to sell?" This tea is not valuable in Jiangzhou, but it must be valuable elsewhere.

"You think your father has never shipped and sold tea? If you take it to other places and say it's Jiangzhou tea, the shopkeepers in those shops will lower the price, and it won't be more than a few bucks. I also sold tea in your uncle's city. Where’s the shop!”

"Then what?" Yun Luochuan asked.

"It collapsed." Wu said with a smile.

Yun Changfeng frowned and said: "Although Jiangzhou is rich in tea, and the tea is good, it is not famous. The poor only buy two taels of crude tea to drink throughout the year. The rich drink tea, but it doesn't matter whether your tea is good or not, it's you who cares about it. The reputation of this tea. Those famous teas worth thousands of gold are bought by people, while those who are not famous don't even look at it. The prices are lowered around you. If you go far away to sell it! You have no way in those far away places. Moreover, it is time-consuming and labor-intensive, accidents are easy to happen on the road, and business is not easy to do!”
