Siheyuan: With a system in place, you don’t need to worry in times of famine

When they opened the door, the people from the Business Department were stunned by the amount of tea in the room.

"These are just ordinary tea leaves, just move them away..."

Ye Fei opened another door and pointed to the tea leaves on the table:

"These are slightly better. There aren't too many. I estimate they are only about a thousand pounds."

The others looked over quickly and saw two huge round tables placed side by side with a number of sacks stacked on them. These were not the usual sacks, but slightly smaller.

It is the same, when people see it, they always feel that the table cannot bear the weight.

No wonder the minister asked them to drive the trucks here. There is so much tea that cannot be transported all at once without trucks.

"Get to work, move the ordinary ones first."

The leader looked at so many bags and simply waved his hand, and everyone started moving them.

After moving, Ye Fei went straight back to the business department and locked the door calmly.

Qin Wenlin stood aside, looking at the three or four layers of locks, and the corners of his mouth twitched.

But it is understandable, after all, there are a lot of things put in it.

Before it was grain, and now it is tea. It feels like a treasure chest, and the things inside always surprise people when they are revealed.

It’s not that the things inside are rare, but because the number is so huge, there is nothing you can imagine.

"I see that your yard is usually uninhabited, aren't you afraid that things might get lost?"

"Don't worry, there are many locks."

Ye Fei didn't care at all. If there really was someone there, it would be inconvenient for him to perform.

This yard is like his small warehouse for the time being and will only be used when needed.

Qin Wenlin raised his eyebrows when he heard this, but wisely did not continue asking questions.

When the two returned to the Ministry of Commerce, the tea had already been weighed.

The person standing next to him was typing away on an abacus. After he finished the last step, his face flushed with excitement:

"Minister, minister."

I can't speak clearly anymore.

"How many?"

Yan Bochuan was also very excited. With so much tea, he thought it must weigh several thousand kilograms.

"Five thousand two hundred sixty-two catties and three ounces."

"hiss."

Yan Bochuan gasped, scratched his remaining hair, paced back and forth, and was so excited that he was completely speechless.

More than 5,200 kilograms, at least it can relieve the emergency.

"Old Yan, how is it?!

Have you ever been so excited by such a surprise that you felt dizzy?"

Qin Wenlin's voice rang out, and Ye Fei followed behind him. When Yan Bochuan saw Ye Fei, he wanted to kneel down on the spot.

He laughed heartily twice, and immediately took Ye Fei to the office.

There was a large box on the desk. Yan Bochuan strode over and opened the box directly:

"Comrade Ye Fei, this is the Golden Pumpkin Tribute Tea you requested. If you had come last year, there would have been a lot of this Golden Pumpkin Tribute Tea. However, this year, the tea production has decreased, so we can only use these teas by crushing them and drying them into fine powder and mixing them together.

This whole piece is given directly to you.

Your 5,000 kilograms of tea are really a great help to us.

It can be said to be a timely help. "

"This whole thing is given to me?"

"Well, I'll give it all to you."

Yan Bochuan said frankly that two tons of Qing Palace tribute tea were cleared out from the old building last year, a small part of which was this Golden Gourd Tribute Tea. Fortunately, there are still some left. Ye Fei helped so much today, so it’s no problem to give one away. After all, it has to be disposed of eventually.

"Thank you, Minister Yan!"

Ye Fei thanked him sincerely again. Originally, a small piece would have been enough, but he didn't expect to get a whole one. It was really a pleasant surprise.

"What is this?"

When Sha Zhu saw Ye Fei coming back with a big package that was bulging and as big as a watermelon, he couldn't help but ask out of curiosity.

"Take it apart and take a look."

Upon hearing this, Sha Zhu immediately opened the package and stared at the huge tea ball in shock:

"Is this tea?"

"Yes, Golden Pumpkin Tribute Tea, great stuff!"

"Such a big ball, can it be better than the West Lake Longjing?"

Sha Zhu didn't know much about tea, and it was under Ye Fei's influence that he knew that West Lake Longjing was a good thing.

He also tried to taste it, and it was indeed better than ordinary tea.

But he couldn't understand what was so good about this tea. When he was thirsty, he could just pick up the cup and drink it all. The brewed tea leaves were easy to put into his mouth, unless he was very leisurely.

Occasionally, when he had free time, Sha Zhu would try to sip the West Lake Longjing tea in small sips, but he could not sit still at all. Such a small cup was not satisfying at all. It was even worse than his big teapot.

This is probably why wild boars cannot eat fine bran.

Shazhu can’t learn it, so he just has to do what he has to do.

"This is the tribute tea of ​​the Qing Palace. It is said that these are picked by unmarried girls, and they are all first-class bud tea. The picked bud tea is usually placed in the arms of the girl first, and only when it reaches a certain amount, it is taken out and placed in a bamboo basket.

This kind of bud tea will turn into golden yellow after being stored for a long time, so it has another alias, called golden pumpkin human head tribute tea.

Golden Gourd Tribute Tea was usually offered as tribute to the palace, and it was simply impossible to find among the common people.

We are also in the present, if it were in the Qing Dynasty, you wouldn’t be able to drink it even if you wanted to.”

Ye Fei explained to Sha Zhu the origin of Golden Gourd Tribute Tea, and continued:

“Look at this tea, it’s brown and black, and it’s not moldy or rotten, which means it’s well preserved.

Also, there are marks on the surface where the fabric was tightened. What does this mean?

This shows that tea was made by wrapping it in cloth, rolling it tightly, and drying it into shape…”

"Go in, pay tribute to the emperor?!"

Sha Zhu didn't understand the rest of the words, but he understood the general meaning. This golden pumpkin tribute tea was previously a tribute to the emperor.

"Um, can I have a taste?"

Sha Zhu was tempted. Even though he didn't like drinking tea, he wanted to satisfy his vanity.

This was something that only the emperor could drink before. If he tasted it, wouldn't he be able to brag about it when he went out?!

"Arrange it immediately."

Ye Fei agreed immediately, and Sha Zhu was so happy that his mouth was almost stretched behind his ears.

The golden pumpkin tribute tea is ready. Sha Zhu can’t wait to take a sip. It’s tasteless?

He smacked his lips again and took another bite. It was indeed tasteless.

“Why is this tea tasteless?!

Could it be that I bought a fake one? "

“So this is the power of Golden Gourd Tribute Tea.

Look at this tea, it has color, but the tea leaves are dark and light.

The taste of no flavor shows that it is the best of Golden Gourd Tribute Tea.

Ye Fei took a sip and said something intoxicated.

Silly Pillar...

He drank the tea in his hand in one gulp, then picked up the apple on the table and started eating it.

The taste of tasteless food. This is too profound.

If you ask him, no matter how good the tea is, it can't compare to boiled water, especially when you are thirsty, just take a big sip and your thirst will be quenched.

He should just eat some fruit and drink some water.
