Vol 2 Chapter 1362: Tea tasting party, fairy tea!

"Father, I heard that Yong'an Hou invited us to Yunshan to participate in the tea tasting conference?"
In the east of Chang'an city, the Zheng family is in the mansion in the capital.
Zheng Qianjun came to the study and asked Zheng Yinhong.
Zheng Yinhong nodded and smiled: "That's it! But this time Qianjun, you don't go!"
Zheng Qianjun said unwillingly: "Why? Dad? If I go, it won't hurt you?"
To be honest, he likes going to Yunshan, especially the tall and towering concrete buildings of Yanhuang Academy. Even though the Zheng family is rich in Jiangnan, they have never owned such a luxurious and spectacular house on Yunshan.
Zheng Yinhong shook his head and said, "I got the news for my father. Those who participated in the tea tasting conference this time are all members of the Yanhuang Chamber of Commerce. They should talk about business matters when they go there. Qianjun, you are not right about this. Are you not interested? What's more, when the Fenglei team has a game tomorrow, someone must be staring at the court. Go to the court tomorrow!"
"...Yes! Dad~!"
Zheng Qianjun hesitated for a moment, nodded, and then he suddenly brightened his eyes and asked: "Father! Lord Hou also invited members of the Yanhuang Chamber of Commerce this time, do you want to share some business with the Zheng family? It seems that you gave it yesterday. Master Hou likes this tea!"
Zheng Yinhong smiled and stroked his beard and said, "Hehe! Anyway, this is a good thing for our family! It depends on how Yonganhou will arrange tomorrow!"
……………………
On the second day, Yunshan Courtyard.
Just after Li Zexuan had breakfast, a servant in the palace came to Yunshan and told him that Li Er listed the tea he offered yesterday as tribute tea, and he will be responsible for the supply of tea in the palace from now on!
Li Zexuan was stunned in an instant!
Because he has no stock of this tea!
Chang'an is located in northwestern China with arid climate, but the growth of tea trees has relatively high requirements for sunshine, temperature, moisture, wind and air humidity. Tea trees like diffuse light, and generally tea trees that grow in mountain forests or clouds have better quality.
Therefore, since ancient times, the southern part of China has been a large-scale tea production base, with a worldwide reputation and a great reputation. The famous teas in China are basically produced in the south, while the north seems a little unknown by comparison!
Now Li Er let him be responsible for the tea supply in the palace. Isn't this branding? Where does he go to make so much tea?
After much deliberation, Zheng Yinhong was the only one to get it. Presumably the old guy would be very happy!
At four quarters of Chen Shi, Zheng Yinhong, Cao Wendong, Lin Wenyuan and others arrived at the Yunshan Mountain on time.
Zheng Yinhong and Cao Wendong were considered to have met, and because of the Fenglei team, the name Zheng Yinhong was already widely known to the people of Chang'an. Therefore, when he arrived at the Yunshan Courtyard, Zheng Yinhong had already got in touch with members of the Yanhuang Chamber of Commerce such as Lin Wenyuan and Feng Zhihua. Talking about it!
"See Lord Hou~!"
After being notified by the next person, the group came to the front yard. At this time, Li Zexuan had already placed a tea cup under the pavilion in the front yard, and there was a stove next to it, which was burning hot water! Zheng Yinhong, Cao Wendong and others hurriedly saluted Li Zexuan.
"Haha! You are welcome! Sit down~!"
Li Zexuan smiled and motioned everyone to take their seats. He then ordered: "Xiaohe, pour tea~!"
"Yes! Master~!"
Little Hefu poured boiled water into the tea cups on the stone table one by one, and the aroma was overflowing, and the tea fragrance filled the garden.
Everyone was amazed by this novel tea-making technique and the color of the tea soup. Compared with the previous method of making tea in a pot with powdered tea and various seasonings, this tea soup made with boiling water has a brighter and more attractive color. People are even better just in terms of "appearance"!
But what is even more amazing is the taste of the tea soup. It is bitter and sweet, and the mouth is fragrant. Everyone has an endless aftertaste. Zheng Yinhong exclaimed: "Houl, the taste of this tea soup is really special, bitter and sweet. , Sweet and fragrant, especially the moment the tea soup is swallowed, the aroma suddenly bursts out, and I feel that the internal organs are all filled with the fragrance of tea!
Zheng did not like to drink the tea soup made from crushed tea powder. They were all freshly picked tea leaves. They were drunk after being boiled and boiled over a low heat. The taste was very delicious, so Zheng still felt that he created it before. A surprisingly brilliant method of making tea, but today, compared with Hou Ye's tea soup, Zheng really feels that the tea he drank before was really for nothing!
Zheng is a little curious, is this tea really the tea that the old man sent to Master Hou the day before yesterday? Why is there such a big difference in taste? "
Li Zexuan couldn't help but smile secretly. He thought that Zheng Yinhong had studied the tea ceremony. He actually knew that he would give up the use of powdered tea and use the whole piece of tea instead, but he used raw tea, which tasted a lot worse.
As far as Li Zexuan knows, fresh tea leaves can indeed be brewed directly with boiling water, but the tea soup will have a great grassy taste. After all, the tea leaves that have not been fried are the most primitive and natural state of tea. , Is also a kind of herb!
"Hehe! This tea is of course the one that the owner Zheng sent here the day before, otherwise, where can I get so much tea in a short time?"
Li Zexuan looked at Zheng Yinhong and said with a smile: "However, the tea sent by the owner of Zheng Zhuang has been processed by a special method, so the fragrance will be more intense! Here! You can look at the shape of the processed tea!"
With that said, Li Zexuan asked Xiao Xi to bring a box of fried tea leaves and handed it to Zheng Yinhong.
"Thank you Lord Hou!"
Zheng Yinhong took it with both hands and opened the tea box. He was immediately surprised, because the tea leaves in the tea box could emit bursts of strong tea fragrance without boiling water, which, in his opinion, was simply incredible!
Zheng Yinhong, who was in business and also ran a stall the size of Yanyu Villa, was naturally very good at being a man. He poured three or four tea leaves from the wooden box, poured them into his hand, and then handed the wooden box to the neighbor Cao Wendong said, "Come on, Brother Cao, let's take a look!"
Cao Wendong nodded gratefully at Zheng Yinhong, and then said: "Okay! Just let me wait to open my eyes!"
Soon, everyone who was sitting was given a few pieces of tea and began to observe carefully.
"Tsk tusk! The processed tea leaves are all flat and smooth, pretty sharp, tender and green, and evenly heavy. It is amazing."
Zheng Yinhong has done a lot of research on tea ceremony. After careful observation, he first sighed in surprise, and then asked with some uncertainty: "Master Hou, are these tea leaves fried in a pot? "
Li Zexuan nodded his head and applauded: "Haha! Zhuang Master Zheng really has good eyesight! This tea is indeed fried!"
Zheng Yinhong exclaimed: "It is really not easy to roast tea into such a flat, smooth, sharp, and uniform shape! This tea roaster has superb skills and is extremely skillful! Zheng is extremely impressed! "
Li Zexuan smiled slightly and said, "Don't hide it from you, the man who made the tea is the wife of this lord!"
The ancients generally called outsiders their wives as lowly inner, but Li Zexuan was not used to this.
Everyone in the audience was shocked, and quickly got up and said, "It's really fortunate for me to wait for Sansheng to taste the craftsmanship of Mrs. Hou! Thank you for the hospitality of Mrs. Hou!
"Hehe! You are welcome!"
Li Zexuan smiled and stretched out his hand.
Everyone sat down again.
At this time, Cao Wendong asked aloud: "Master Hou, this tea has a delicate fragrance and is so special. It should have a name. I wonder if Master Hou has a suitable name in his heart?"
"Yes, it is extremely! How can there not be a nice name for such a fairy tea? Wouldn't Lord Hou give this tea a name today?"
Zheng Yinhong quickly echoed.
Hearing this, Li Zexuan squeezed his chin, and after he meditated for a moment, he said, "Since everyone thinks I am immortal tea, why not call him immortal tea!"
Although he wanted to take the name "West Lake Longjing" directly in his heart, but at this moment, West Lake has not yet been "born", and he does not know whether there is a Longjing Village in this era. He chose "West Lake Longjing". No one else knows what it means.
The predecessor of West Lake was originally the junction of hills and the East Ocean. In the Tang Dynasty, Bai Juyi became the parent official of Hangzhou. In order to improve the drinking water conditions of Hangzhou people, he organized artificial activities and dredged the West Lake, turning the West Lake from a purely natural lake into a semi-natural and semi-artificial lake.
Later in the Northern Song Dynasty, when Su Dongpo became Hangzhou Zhizhou, he organized the dredging of the West Lake and piled it into a long embankment. Later generations named Sudi as a memorial.
It is precisely because there are historical figures such as Bai Juyi and Su Dongpo, who not only renovated the West Lake, but also used their own brilliant pen to praise the West Lake. The beauty of West Lake has slowly become popular among the people.
But at this moment in the early Tang Dynasty, if you talk to people about West Lake, they will probably look dumbfounded and don't know what you are talking about!
"Shenxian tea? This name is good! First there is the fairy drunk, then the fairy mirror, and then the fairy lamp, now there is the fairy tea again, good! Good! Good! Good name!"
Zheng Yinhong was taken aback for a moment, and then laughed with his palm.
The rest of the people also thought that the three characters of Shenxian Tea were quite appropriate, and that it could echo Li Zexuan's previous products in the name, so they all spoke out to express their appreciation.
"I just don’t know if Master Hou has the intention to do tea business? It relies on Shenxian Tea’s unique frying method, novel and simple brewing method~EbookFREE.me~ and its sweet and refreshing taste and texture, Zheng Mou I can guarantee that as long as Lord Hou is willing to sell it, he will definitely be popular across the country!"
Zheng Yinhong suddenly looked at Li Zexuan and said.
Hearing this, everyone woke up and turned their attention to Li Zexuan, because this is a big "cake"!
Li Zexuan was happy, he waited for Zheng Yinhong's words, so he smiled slightly and said, "Hehe! Of course you want to do this tea business, but you need to cooperate with him..."
