Just as everyone was hiding the summer tea room in the pavilion, Guo Xiu, who was like a scattered gourd, also interrupted: "Old Doctor Hua once said that eating bitter tea for a long time will make it better, it's really good!"

There were records of Zhao Feiyan’s gift of tea in the Western Han Dynasty, which all show that tea has gradually become more popular among the nobles. During the Western Han Dynasty, there was a “Tuling County” named after tea in Hunan, which is “the so-called “Tu Ming’s birth in Linggu.”

This not only shows that tea was produced in Hunan and other places during the Western Han Dynasty, but also shows that tea began to receive special attention, especially its medicinal value.

With the development of tea production and the popularization of tea drinking, tea science has flourished, and the feedback from the rise of tea science has enabled tea production to develop faster.

At that time, there were incidents of Shu women selling tea in the market. Wang Chen and his friends were taken to the city that day and saw many Shu women selling tea on both sides of a bustling market, which shows that tea had developed into the people. Later, it had formed a trend of "the customs of the times were popular in the country and... thinking that it was a drink in the house."

Tea gradually spread across the country, from north to south of the Chinese land, from east to west to east of the Qinling Mountains. The style of drinking and eating tea spreads to all ethnic groups in China, from kings and princes to common people, and no tea is left for a day.

For thousands of years, tea has been positioned among the seven essential elements of people's lives.

Tea trees, also known as 南, 未, 南, Yuancha, are shrubs or small trees of the Camellia family Camellia. They have many similarities with ornamental plants such as camellia and tea plum that are well known to the public. Although their plants are not tall, their trees are dense, their leaves are green in color, and their tender branches are smooth and hairless, and have a high recognition.

Ancient books contain: "One foot, two feet or even dozens of feet; there are two people holding each other in the Bashan Gorges and Rivers, and they cut them down and picked them up.

The trees are like melons and reeds, the leaves are like gardenias, the flowers are like white roses, the real ones are like tarts, the stems are like lilacs, and the roots are like walnuts.

The word "song" is either from grass, or from wood, or from grass and trees. The name is "cha", "two" is "song", "three" is "two" is "two" is "two" is "two" is "two" is "two" is "two" is "two" is "two" is "two" is..."

Judging from the natural resource distribution of tea trees, they are widely distributed in mountainous areas in various provinces south of the Yangtze River in my country, and can grow well in rocks, gravel and soil; but the quality of the tea produced is still very different with different growth environments.

As recorded in the book, "The above is the top, the middle is the top, the gravel soil, and the lower is the bottom." It means that tea growing on cliffs has the best quality; tea growing on sand and gravel is the second quality; the worst is tea growing in loess.

As the saying goes, "Good tea comes from the mountains." In fact, many famous teas in our country are indeed related to the mountains.

First of all, the temperature in the mountains is relatively low, the tea tree grows for a long time, accumulates more nutrients, the tea leaves are rich in content, and the tea leaves are of good quality;

Secondly, due to the large temperature difference between day and night in the mountains, the photosynthetic products accumulated by tea trees during the day are consumed less at night, which increases the accumulation of nutrients in the tea trees;

Third, clouds and mist are shrouded in the mountains, abundant rainfall and high air humidity are promoted, which promotes the growth and development of tea trees and improves the quality of tea.

However, it is not that "the higher the mountain, the better the quality of tea". Too high altitude and too low the temperature on the mountain will be detrimental to the growth of tea trees.

Good tea is easy to produce high mountains, but not only high mountains produce good tea. Just like the good tea in Dongwu, it grows in plains and hills.

Westerners knew tea very late until the 17th century, when they knew the magic of Chinese tea from the Arabs.

The Dutch transported Chinese tea to Europe for the first time, and this drink quickly aroused people's interest in the local area. The custom of drinking tea quickly developed in the West.

Soon, Britain became a country that loved drinking tea. Later, the British brought tea to the United States, Canada and other British colonies, and truly became popular all over the world.

It was originally a leaf, but when it first met humans, it was regarded as a prescription for detoxification.

It is this small leaf that extends a long industrial chain of "food and clothing, nourishing the world" in the long river of history.

It was made into tea bricks and sealed carefully, and then placed on the camel's back, and entered Europe with porcelain and silk, going to the world, spreading Chinese civilization.

Whether it is an important industry and export commodity, or entering the palace, it becomes a fashionable golden branch and jade leaf, or it is placed on the back of a horse to carry it to the east, west, south, and north, becoming the life drink of nomads,

The wonder of this leaf is that it can be kept away from the world and remain uncontested, or planted on a large scale to benefit mankind;

It can not only enter the cultural hall, but also be a part of the urban culture;

You can not only taste the drink alone, cultivate the characteristics of "cleanness, integrity, beauty, tranquility, frugality, and cleanness", but also use it to treat guests, respect guests, enhance friendship and promote harmony.

Tea trees in the world can be divided into three major populations, and their origin is southwest of my country.

The tea tree population in China is small, about a few meters high, strong cold resistance, can grow in countries with distinct seasons and withstand frost.

The leaves of Chinese tea tree population are dark green, with small and narrow leaves, serrated edges, upright upward, smooth surface, thick and crisp texture, and are suitable for processing into green tea and oolong tea.

Most of the tea trees planted from my country to all over the world belong to the Chinese tea tree population. It can be said that China is the true ancestor of tea.

Wang Shen smacked his lips and said, "Although this tea is not the best in Shu, it only grows in sandy soil. However, because it grows on high mountains, there are many high mountains in Shu. It is also the spring tea picked in spring this spring, which has improved the quality of the tea, which is actually the medium and the uppermost."

Chen Guangqin smiled and said, "Brother Chudao is worthy of being a child of a large family. You can know the quality of this tea by drinking it. But I don't know why this tea cannot be rated as a top-quality one?"

Wang Shen said calmly: "Brother Guangqin has given me a prize. This is just my little preference. It is not worth mentioning. If the tea in Shu is truly the best,

It is still the kind of person who grows on high mountains and cliffs and goes through the tempering of wind, frost, snow and rain to become a true top-notch. Just like in life, you have to go through more hardships to achieve a great cause.

Just like the capture I had been waiting for a few days ago, it might not be a bad thing. Maybe the good days I was waiting for were coming soon, and maybe I could do something big in the Shu Han court in the future."

Chu Li put down the tea bowl and clasped his fists and said, "Brother Chudao borrowed tea to describe life. It's really wonderful. Although we are surrendered ministers, we can do something in a new place. Then General Wei is our role model."

Wang Chen and Chen Guangqin both nodded in agreement, but Guo Xiu was thinking about what Wang Chen had done a big thing in the Shu court in the words he had just said, but only Guo Xiu himself knew what kind of "big thing" was.

At this time, outside the inn, Jiang Wei also brought a group of personal guards to the front door of the inn. Everyone turned over and got off the horses, and then the postman came forward to take the horses of several people to the stable and put them in the stable...
