Live as the emperor

Chapter 286

Nowadays, drinking black tea is both fashionable and a status symbol, as it is difficult to buy, is in limited supply every day, has nationwide quotas, and is also subject to purchase restrictions.The better the quality, the fewer of them will be in circulation on the market.Therefore, as soon as Wu Hou mentioned this top-quality black tea, everyone's interest was immediately aroused.Top-quality black tea. How many of you here have tasted it?Legend has it that it was a tribute product to the emperor.There are simply very few circulating in the market, and the people who can get them are all people with great abilities.

"Ah, top-notch black tea! As expected, it's Marquis Wu, you can get all this." The four words "top-notch black tea" had a fatal attraction for everyone present. As soon as Marquis Wu announced the news, it immediately aroused a warm response.

Thinking of the appearance of the prince here, everyone also thought of the origin of this black tea.

"Could it be given by the emperor, in order to keep a low profile, so the grandson of Marquis Wu brought it up and said he bought it."

"It should be like this. Just kidding. The right to buy top-quality black tea has long been reserved for next year. It's so easy to buy it."

Not only the officials present were very interested, but Chen Guang was also very interested.But what interests him is not drinking tea, but the tea itself.

When Marquis Wu mentioned the top-quality black tea, Chen Guang had already confirmed that it should be the box he gave Ah Fu.

Because, the top black tea is not sold outside at all!

Chen Guang's tea has no name or brand name. Black tea is black tea and green tea is green tea. Chen Guang doesn't even intend to give them a nice name.

A good product can speak, even if it has no name, everyone will still know it.

Regardless of whether it is black tea or green tea, Chen Guang is divided into four grades. The lowest grade is of course the ordinary grade, which is for ordinary people to drink, and the price is slightly more expensive than the previous tea bricks. Tea leaves or the residue left over from making tea leaves.

The second one is the intermediate grade. This grade of tea is better than ordinary grade. There is no need to fool people with residues. There are also formed tea leaves in it. It is also quite beautiful to pick out the complete tea leaves. Generally, people who buy this kind of tea are all A kind of businessman, pick out the good ones to drink, and then give the inferior ones to the people below to drink.

The third is high-grade, high-grade black tea is made in strict accordance with the craftsmanship, from the raw materials have been carefully selected, and then made by skilled workers, the quality is very high, and the taste is not comparable to ordinary tea, Of course, the price is even more incomparable. It is basically more expensive than silver of the same weight, and it may not be available for purchase.

This kind of tea is generally collected by high-ranking officials, whether it is for oneself to enjoy or to give as a gift, it is excellent.

The fourth level is of course top-level black tea. It also has a name called tribute tea. As the name suggests, it is a special tribute to the tea in the palace.There are also circulations in the legend, but there are very few surviving ones. They are all rewarded by the emperor or the nobleman, and then those who get the gift are not willing to enjoy it, and sell it to those who need it in exchange for gold and silver.

Of course, this is just a legend, and if anyone actually bought it, then everyone has a different opinion.

And thinking that they will be able to drink this top-quality black tea soon, everyone is very excited, and naturally they will not pursue which sentence is true and which sentence is false.

For everyone's reaction, Marquis Wu expressed his satisfaction, that's right, but don't worship brother too much, sister-in-law will be unhappy.

Marquis Wu clapped his hands, and immediately a maid came over with a box. When Chen Guang saw the box, his eyes narrowed. Isn't this the box he gave Ah Fu?

Although it looks plain, Chen Guang swears that he will never be wrong.

Sure enough, it was snatched from Ah Fu?
Chen Guang has confirmed that the one who killed Ah Fu must be the grandson of Marquis Wu.Wuhou's grandson snatched the tea from Ah Fu, regarded it as a purchase, and gave it to Wuhou as a birthday present.

Well, that should be it.

So what should I do now?

Chen Guang was stumped by this question. After all, he was the grandson of an important official in the court. Now it was his birthday. He couldn't make trouble on such an occasion, so he probably couldn't catch the murderer. When the time comes to be beaten up by this group of veterans, it will really be a day for the huskies.

Well, it seems that we need to think of a slightly better way.Chen Guang's previous idea was to expose the crime committed by Marquis Wu's grandson on the spot, but now it seems that his idea was too simple.

No matter, let's leave it like this for now. The important thing is to get the box and make sure it belongs to the East Palace.

A maid took out a small spoon with a long handle, made of white porcelain, very delicate, it was used to measure the tea leaves, and used this spoon to distribute the tea leaves into the teacups.

Then another servant girl took out a long-mouthed kettle, which was made of brass and specially used for pouring tea. The long spout ensures that even if you pour tea for dozens of teacups at the same time, your hands will not be too short. don't go.

These special tea sets were all developed under the strong advocacy of Chen Guang.Over time, it has been accepted and respected by everyone.

Drinking tea is originally an elegant thing, not casually like drinking water, but just to quench thirst.Since it is a matter of elegance, it should be matched with elegant utensils.

Chen Guang doesn't need to say this idea, everyone understands it.

Besides, this maid first washed the tea and then filled it up.If the fragrance of a cup of tea is fresh and elegant, when dozens of cups or hundreds of cups of tea are put together, the fragrance will be quite strong. This is a fragrance different from the fragrance of flowers, strong but not pungent. It smells so refreshing.

Afterwards, the beautiful-looking maidservant dressed in costumes carried teacups and walked slowly, delivering them to every guest.

Just looking at this picture is a beautiful enjoyment, not to mention that when the scent of tea enters the mind through the nasal cavity, and the two phases are stimulated, everyone no longer knows what night it is.

Chen Guang drank too much tea like this, and saw too many beauties like this, naturally he wouldn't feel much, but other people are different, let's put the beauties aside for now, this tea is what he yearns for, and now he has it To fulfill one's wish, one must be intoxicated.

Tea was served, and the maid was about to leave with the box, but Chen Guang said, "Wait a minute."

His voice was not loud, and only a few people nearby heard it.The maid stopped, and Marquis Wu was a little puzzled, and asked, "His Royal Highness, are you..."
