Live as the emperor

Chapter 235

There is a brazier in the tunnel, and the burning materials come from this boundless mountain. People full of wisdom squeeze the fruit of a plant picked on this mountain to extract oil, which can be used not only for cooking, but also for a steady stream of Keep supplying this brazier, killing two birds with one stone.

The tunnel was very quiet, only the sound of horseshoes echoing.

After passing through the tunnel, the front suddenly opened up. Not far from the front, a team of hundreds of people looked particularly eye-catching.

Seeing Chen Guang, Wu Zhu was startled, he didn't expect to meet Chen Guang here today.In fact, he had always wanted to find an opportunity to express his gratitude to Chen Guang. After all, tea had brought so many benefits to Guangdong, and he felt it was unreasonable not to thank him in person.He drove his horse forward, came in front of Chen Guang, clasped his hands together, and said, "His Royal Highness."

When he met Chen Guang before, Chen Guang was still His Highness the Prince of Jin. Unexpectedly, just a short time had passed and Chen Guang had already been promoted to His Highness the Crown Prince.

And Chen Guang looked at it for a while before he remembered who this person was. After all, the attire and appearance had changed, and it was forgiven for not being able to remember it for a while.

"It turned out to be you, and you personally delivered the tea." Chen Guang responded with a smile. For him, tea is just a means of making money, far from the high status in Guangdong, so he saw Wu Zhu escorting the tea in person. Coming over, he looked very surprised.

But Wu Zhu said: "For such a valuable thing, it is naturally better for me to make it myself. How come His Highness the Crown Prince has time to come and have a look today?"

In fact, he didn't need to do it himself to transport the tea. After all, what is his identity?That's the prince. If the prince of a dignified country does this kind of thing, it will definitely shock the world if it gets out.But Wu Zhu enjoyed this process very much, coupled with the importance of tea, his emperor father also acquiesced in this behavior.

Chen Guang said with a smile: "Haha, it's just a coincidence, it's just a coincidence, I haven't been here for a long time, so I came to see it today, and I just heard that someone said that I came to collect tea, so I came to have a look."

Wu Zhu joked: "Could it be that you want to test my tea?"

I remember that when the tea leaves were shipped over for the first time, Chen Guang picked out many unqualified ones, so Wu Zhu said so.

Chen Guang laughed loudly, and said following his words: "Yes, it's been such a long time, I want to see if your tea picking skills have improved."

"Don't worry, I guarantee you will be satisfied." Wu Zhu said confidently, "The color and quality of the carts I brought today are different. They can be made into various grades of tea. Please have a look."

When Wu Zhu said so, Chen Guang naturally wanted to take a look. Today's tea factories mainly produce black tea and green tea, and there are the highest-end tribute tea series. The tea leaves are exclusively for the royal relatives.The latter is slightly inferior, and it is for the princes and ministers. The selection of raw materials is not so strict, but the taste is definitely very good, belonging to the second level.The second is the tea that the common people drink. These are made of the most common raw materials that can be used. The workers who make the tea are also the most skilled apprentices in the factory. Yes - even such a product tastes much better than the tea that was boiled as important as before.

Chen Guang checked the tea leaves and found that it was exactly as what Wu Zhu said, their control over the raw materials has become more and more strict, which is a good thing.There are two main points in making tea. The first is that the raw materials must be good. Only good raw materials can produce top-quality tea.The second is technology. The so-called skillful woman can't cook without rice. If there is no top-notch tea raw material, even if Chen Guang brings the world's national tea masters here, he can't make any good tea.

However, Chen Guang's inspection is no longer counted. The team brought by Guo Nu has grown into professional tea appraisal masters. They have repeatedly studied and practiced according to the requirements that Chen Guang gave them before, and now they are better than others.

The tea leaves were inspected and all passed. Guo Nu paid cash, one cart of gold and two carts of silver in exchange for the tea leaves.As the quality of tea improves, the price will naturally rise. You can't let others come up with good things and be reluctant to pay the price yourself. That kind of cooperation will not last long.

After receiving the payment, Kuretake seemed very happy, after all, this was a huge fortune.

"Okay, the payment is cleared, perfect. Then, I'll take my leave now." After getting the money, Wu Zhu went back and had no intention of staying longer.

But Chen Guang said with a smile: "Don't, you just came here, and you will leave without taking a rest? I've come up with another trick, do you want to try it?"

"Oh? His Highness the Crown Prince is inspired again? Then I would like to observe and observe."

Hearing that Chen Guang had come up with something good again, Wu Zhu's eyes lit up immediately.Isn't Chen Guang the one who made the tea?How much influence does it have on Guangdong now?There is also the multi-spindle spinning machine, which is now in full bloom in Guangdong. The prices of yarn and fabrics in Guangdong have dropped in an all-round way. Basically, ordinary poor people can wear clothes. This is not all thanks to Are these so-called good things by Chen Guang?
Is there something subversive about to appear?

Wu Zhu expressed his expectation.

Chen Guang said with a smile: "Then please come to the factory as a guest, I will make it for you personally, and I can teach you this."

Wu Zhu was taken aback again, can you teach?This is the first time.

For multi-spindle spinning machines, you can only buy ready-made ones, and you are not allowed to produce them yourself.Although some people tried to produce, the cost was higher than buying directly from dry countries, so they had to give up in the end.

Tea can only be grown, and the secrets and process of making it are controlled in the tea factory. Although everyone knows that most of the profits in this process go to the tea factory, there is no way around it.

This is the technical advantage.

Now Chen Guang can teach himself this?What the hell is that?
Along the way, Wu Zhu was thinking about this question.

When he arrived at the tea factory, Chen Guang brought out two porcelain bowls. The bowls contained what looked like black tea, but some of them were white, and when mixed together, they turned into a faint gray.

"Come on, have a taste, this is a new thing I have tinkered with."

"What's its name?" Seeing that the color of this thing is a bit weird, besides the scent of tea, there seems to be a faint sweet and milky scent in it, Wu Zhu looked very curious.

"Haha, this thing is called milk tea." Chen Guang said proudly.
