Chapter 152 Spiritual Fruit Platter, Beauty Peach Gum and Stealing Fragrance
In the next few days, Li Xiangdu drove his three girls to various tea factories to conduct on-site inspections, select suitable suppliers, and sign some contracts. We also collected a lot of video material.
The purchase amount spent in the past few days alone has reached seven to eight million yuan, and there will be a large number of orders in the future.
Tea will be one of Li Xiang's main businesses in the next few years. The profits are really too huge. This is because he has a price advantage and benefits his fans.
For example, the quality of a small can of tea cannot be compared with his, but it is very expensive. A small can of tea only has 4 grams, and 10 cans can be sold for 500 yuan, and 20 cans can be sold for 1,000 yuan, which is equivalent to one More than six thousand pounds!
The other party advertised eight masters who roasted tea by hand. Later, some netizens calculated based on their output that each person roasted 1,466 kilograms of fresh tea leaves every day on average, 365 days a year. The top tea ladies, who roasted tea purely by hand, could do four or five jobs a day. Ten pounds of fresh leaves is a big deal.
Like West Lake Longjing, the process is complicated and the requirements are strict. If you produce more than ten kilograms of fresh leaves a day, four or five kilograms of dried tea is quite good.
The funniest thing is that those eight masters are all corporate executives.
Therefore, it is inevitable to be questioned by consumers.
Later, the company had no choice but to apologize, and then changed the word "do" to "make", saying that "this thing is not the other thing."
But so what, people have already made a lot of money.
Li Xiang sells it so cheaply. Top-quality Gaoshantou tea only costs 1,200 yuan per pound.
Grandma Li Xiang also picked some wild green tea on a shallow hillside. It was not much. After working for a few days, she got more than five kilograms of fresh leaves.
Of course, I didn’t do this all day long. After lunch, when the weather was nice, I went out to pick some. I came back very early, and then I fried it in an iron pot. Finally, I harvested about one pound and two taels of dried tea leaves.
This kind of early spring green tea usually produces one pound of dry tea from four to five pounds of green leaves.
There was no special equipment, and the skill of frying tea was self-taught, so the fried tea did not look very good, but Li Xiang brewed a cup and it tasted really good. However, due to the origin, the quality is still much worse than the high mountain tea from that tea factory.
Li Xiang told her not to go there in the future. It was too dangerous. If she fell or twisted her foot, the gain would outweigh the loss. My grandson has purchased a large amount of tea and started a tea business. Does he still care about the one or two kilograms of wild tea?
Picking tea leaves is actually very labor-intensive. If you are a novice who has never picked tea leaves before and is exhausted when you go up the mountain for the first time, you may need two or three kilograms of fresh leaves. You may even twist your feet and lose your waist. The worse ones rolled directly down the mountain.
As for skilled tea pickers, if they pick this kind of early spring green tea or black tea, the amount of picking is actually not large. Generally, they only pick 5-10 kilograms of fresh leaves a day. But if it is Pu'er tea, the amount is much larger, about the same in a day. It can weigh up to thirty or fifty kilograms.
This is because good green tea and black tea have one bud and one leaf, and a few have one bud and two leaves, which are relatively small and tender, while Pu'er tea has two or three leaves, and the leaves are larger and rougher in appearance.
Pu'er tea pays attention to the durability of brewing, and the older it gets, the more fragrant it becomes, while green tea usually focuses on freshness, divided into "Mingqian", "Minghou" and "Yuhou". The main focus is to pick the young buds and tips, and pay attention to the fresh and sweet taste. After one or two brews This time the food was tasteless.
There are slight differences between black tea and green tea. Although they are also clearly distinguished, the production process of black tea is different from that of green tea, including withering, rolling, fermentation and other links. Good technology can make up for the gap between the rain before and after the rain. The specific process is It depends on personal preference.
In the past, black tea was only divided into new tea, old tea, or spring tea, summer tea, autumn tea, etc. However, later it became too curly, and more tricks were invented.
As for those that directly use tea picking machines, "woo woo woo~" and cut a large piece at a time, they are used to make tea extracts, tea drinks, tea bags, etc.
Li Xiang later landscaped the tea table, "repaired it", and asked Yao Yao to draw some pictures on it and then carve it. In the end, it looked pretty good. Now he placed it in the yard and brewed a new pot of tea. , enjoying the spring sunshine leisurely.
When the end of the world comes in a few years, there will no longer be such precious and free sunshine. Many people will regret it in the end of the world. They didn't cherish it at the time and just thought it was ordinary.
"Brother~"
A crisp and sweet cry, not as coquettish as Yao Yao, nor as slightly reserved as Zhao Xueqing, but a little more agile and playful, it was Jiang Cai'er who was on vacation!
"Come here for tea!" Li Xiang turned around and waved.
"OKK!" Jiang Cai'er came jumping up and down with a refreshing body fragrance that was even better than the fragrance of tea.
"OK is OK, why is it still OK?"
"Humph, you didn't even wait for me to serve you a drink, so I didn't even get to partake of your banquet!"
"What's so delicious about that flowing table? I'll cook it myself later and fry some side dishes for you. I've been quite experienced in making the green tea shrimps recently. I'll let you try my craft later."
"Yeah, I'm looking forward to it." Jiang Caier picked up the teacup, took a sip, and praised, "This tea is pretty good."
"Of course, it is the best high-mountain tea, the kind with an altitude of more than a thousand meters. There are not many." Li Xiang told about the field trips to tea factories and tea mountains in the past few days. Jiang Cai'er's eyes were filled with tears. He narrowed his eyes and looked like he wanted to follow.
Li Xiang said: "You'd better study hard. After college and holidays, you can follow me everywhere."
"Brother, take me to visit your newly renovated house!" Jiang Caier requested.
So, Li Xiang took her there and looked at each room.
"It's very good, quite tasteful, but I don't think you picked it, right? Let me go, there is ylang-ylang oil aromatherapy in this bedroom? Brother, what on earth do you want to do?" Jiang Caier picked up the bottles of essential oil and candles , put it under his nose and smelled it, staring at Li Xiang with burning eyes.
I thought to myself that luckily I had watched "The Legend of Zhen Huan" and knew what it was about.
"They are all gifts from others. There are also some air fryers, juicers, etc., there are many of them. Come on, I will take you to see them. If you like them, take them back." Li Xiang quickly changed the topic and took her Go to the storage room.
"Hmph."
Not sure whether it was because she smelled the fragrance of ylang-ylang essential oil or because Li Xiang held her hand, Jiang Caier felt her body feel slightly warm.
Grandma went out to visit, but they were the only two in such a big house. Sometimes it was a bit ambiguous when the door was closed.
"I like this Doraemon." Jiang Cai'er took a fancy to a small and very cute Doraemon air fryer, so Li Xiang helped her put it in a bag and take it back when she went back.
Of course Jiang Cai'er was not polite to him. If someone gave him something, Jiang Cai'er would refuse it or refuse to accept it. But here with Li Xiang, she felt there was no need to be pretentious.
The two returned to the backyard to continue drinking tea. Li Xiang helped her check her cultivation status and answered some questions. Jiang Cai'er's foundation was very solid and she could try higher-grade spiritual fruits. Li Xiang took out the crystal kiwi fruit from before. Two, handed to Jiang Caier. "Wow, what a beautiful fruit. This is the real kiwi fruit."
"Eat quickly."
"Feed me!" Jiang Caier pouted.
"What the hell, how about I peel it for you and cut it on a plate?" Li Xiang said and went to the kitchen to get a plate and a fruit knife.
In fact, the main reason is that Jiang Cai'er is still studying and is a high school student. Li Xiang is afraid of disturbing her "motivation to study", otherwise she may have more intimate behavior.
In fact, Jiang Cai'er now has a "memory palace". No matter what, it will be difficult to have a big impact on her studies.
There were several couples in their class who would sneak out for a walk during evening self-study. One couple obviously no longer had a sense of "boundaries". They would sneak to the roof of the teaching building after self-study and were discovered several times by their classmates.
Privately, the classmates discussed that those two people must have broken through the red line, but it was unknown to what extent.
After lights out at night, several girls in the same dormitory would discuss this topic, and Jiang Cai'er would sometimes participate. When everyone talked about it, they were actually a little envious.
After all, they are all 17 or 18-year-old girls. They are all tall and graceful. They have already reached adulthood, and their consciousness in that regard has already awakened.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
Li Xiang sliced two fourth-grade kiwi fruits into slices. The flesh was crystal clear and green, like the best imperial green glass. It was also dotted with some small red berries that were as shiny as rubies. With a shiny silver fork, this fruit platter composed entirely of elixirs looked very beautiful. It was placed on the stone tea table and shone brightly when the sunlight hit it.
"I want to take a photo first!" Jiang Cai'er took out her phone with a smile and said to herself that my brother really dotes on me and I must take a photo of this. Of course, you should also post it on Moments.
After posting it on WeChat Moments, many people asked her: "Where did you buy the kiwi fruit? Why does it look so good?"
"What is that little red fruit? It looks delicious!"
Jiang Cai'er just replied with a smile and thought to herself, where can I buy this? This is my brother's love for me, which even money can't buy.
If my brother feeds me like this, I will probably be unable to suppress it soon and will break through to the second level!
The peach tree that Li Xiang transplanted back from the Hailuogou virgin forest has come to life completely. Not only has it sprouted new buds, but it has also bloomed many beautiful peach blossoms.
Due to the "injury", this peach tree now produced a lot of peach gum. When Jiang Cai'er saw it, he took the empty plate after eating the spiritual fruit, washed and dried it, and went to collect peach gum.
Li Xiang also came over to help her.
Peach gum is a good thing for beauty and beauty. It is usually picked from March to April, with the most from May to June. The peach gum at this time is of the highest quality. Although the output is highest in July and August, there is a lot of rain in summer. The peach gum will become black after being soaked in rainwater, so it can only be used for industrial glue.
It can also be picked in autumn from September to October, but it is also a relatively late stage and the quality is not as good as in spring.
The two of them collected a large plate of peach gum, and carefully picked out the impurities in it. After the refinement, the peach gum was as crystal clear as gemstones, just like the tears of a beauty, also called peach blossom tears.
"My mother likes this the most. The dessert stewed in this is very delicious. I took it back and gave it to my mother." Jiang Caier said.
Of course she didn't need it. After practicing the breathing method and eating so many spiritual fruits, she was already so beautiful that it was difficult to describe it in words. Even if Luo Feifei, who is known as the "little fairy", comes, I am afraid that she will be overshadowed by her now and her appearance will be inferior.
That's because Luo Feifei has not stepped into the transcendent yet. If Luo Feifei also becomes a transcendent, eats spiritual fruits, and practices breathing techniques, then the two women will compete for beauty, and who is more beautiful and who is less beautiful, then say no Right.
During Jiang Caier's vacation, she naturally spent all her free time at Li Xiang's house, doing homework, reading, practicing martial arts, and playing the flute. Occasionally, she would also do farm work with Li Xiang, grow vegetables, and take some photos of the countryside, which made her classmates in the city envious. Don't don't want it.
When I was in school, every day felt so long, but time flew by during the holidays, and before I had enough fun, it was time to go back to school again.
This time, Li Xiang had a car, so he drove her off-road vehicle directly to see her off. He no longer had to squeeze in urban and rural buses like before and had to go back and forth.
"Take this pocket money and spend it." Li Xiang handed her another two thousand yuan when they got off the car.
"I really don't want it anymore. I haven't used up what you gave me last time." Jiang Caier put the money back into Li Xiang's hand and explained with a smile, "I sit in the classroom from morning to night every day, how can I have time and place? Go spend money? It’s inconvenient to carry around too much money.”
"Then I'll keep it for you." Li Xiang smiled. In fact, it was because he was too poor when he was in college and lived a relatively poor life, and he felt that girls should be rich to make it easier to resist temptation.
"Brother, I'm leaving then!" Jiang Cai'er waved her hand and dragged her suitcase towards the school gate. After walking a few steps, she looked back and saw that Li Xiang's car was still parked on the side of the road with the windows open, watching him. she.
She looked around, felt something in her heart, dropped the box and trotted back.
"What's wrong? Did you forget something?" Li Xiang asked, then turned to look for it.
"No need to look for it, I didn't forget it." Jiang Cai'er said nervously outside the car window, her voice trembling slightly.
Li Xiang was surprised and wondered what was going on. He turned around and immediately, a gentle red lip was printed on his face.
Li Xiang froze, thinking that this girl is too bold, right? This is the school entrance.
There were two blushes on Jiang Cai'er's pretty face, she was very shy, turned around and ran away, carrying the box into the school.
In fact, her super brain had already calculated it just now, and the angle was just right. There was someone nearby, but she could only see the back of her head, not her subtle beauty.
"This is someone's first kiss, and you want a girl to take the initiative. Brother, you are going too far."
"Ylang ylang essential oil aromatherapy? Huh, even if you don't tell me, I know who sent it. It's either Hu Meizi or green tea."
The reason why Jiang Cai'er was "dangerous" and attacked so boldly this time was that firstly, she was in love and couldn't hold it back, and secondly, there were too many girls around Li Xiang, especially Yao Yao, who was very good at seducing people. The threat was greater than Zhao Xueqing's. She felt that if she didn't decide on her identity as soon as possible, she and her brother would spend less time together and more time apart. If the crystal was stolen, it would be a huge loss!
