The Prodigal Son of Zhenguan

If the technology is passed on, the money will not be so easy to make.

Although he is still the first person to try it, it does not prevent others from catching up. Therefore, no matter what business Li Fu is in, the core technology must be in the hands of his own people.

The egg-changing business is still only done by Li Fu's family. For such a long time, no one has revealed the formula technology. This is the advantage of using your own people.

The indenture is in his hand, and life and death are just a word from Li Fu. Therefore, they dare not betray Li Fu.

Not to mention, Li Fu gave them a good life.

Only fools would do things like throwing away watermelons and picking up sesame seeds.

The village under the tea mountain became lively and busy.

They have something to do. They go to work after opening their eyes and eating every day. This is all real money.

And the house where Li Fu lives will also be expanded to a yard for the time being, which Li Fu will use specifically for tea frying.

In just a few days, the extended courtyard outside was built, because Li Fu's requirements were not high, and it was not for living, so he only needed to build a shed and a stove.

A passage was smashed out on the original courtyard wall, and after a little cleaning and repair, it became a door.

Originally, this house also had a warehouse. Li Fu also asked the guards to clean up the messy sundries in the warehouse. All the usable items were moved to the tea-frying courtyard next to it, and they were used as much as possible. Those that could not be used were sent out. If someone in the village wanted them, they would be given to the villagers. Those that no one wanted were thrown away.

After cleaning, Li Fu began to hire people to pick tea in the mountains, and the fresh tea leaves would be transported back for frying.

The three large pots that were previously made by the blacksmith will be delivered tomorrow.

There are three pots for frying tea: raw pot, second green pot, and cooked pot. The three pots are connected and operated sequentially. The stove is built into a tea-frying stove with three pots connected to each other. The tea-frying broom is made of bamboo. In the process of making tea, the tea leaves are withered in the pot with a low fire. The water in the tea leaves is evaporated quickly by manual kneading, which blocks the fermentation process of the tea leaves and completely retains the essence of the tea juice.

Li Fu had never done it before. When he was in the farm, he wasted a lot of fresh tea leaves before he slowly figured out the steps.

He used to drink tea fried in the ancient way sent by his friends. If the first water was not soaked for one minute before pouring it out, it would have a smoky smell.

Now he is going to run a tea shop and produce on a large scale, so naturally he has to find a way to get rid of this smoky smell.

Before the tea leaves were fried, Li Fu began to think about technology and hard work.

Although it is not original, who makes technology and hard work taste delicious?

The food you put in your mouth, the taste of health = bad.

It's almost May, the season for jasmine flowers to bloom.

When Li Fu was thinking about the taste of tea, he thought of scented tea.

Especially jasmine tea, which is the highest yield among scented teas.

Nowadays, no one is planting jasmine on a large scale, so this is another opportunity to raise the price.

Li Fu secretly admired himself in his heart, thinking that he was really an excellent little genius.

Scarcity makes things valuable. Ordinary roasted tea has one price, but scented tea has another price.

Thinking of this, Li Fu hurriedly called Gu Jinggong into the house.

"Take your people to Yangzhou and Chuzhou to purchase fresh jasmine flowers, and then transport them here as soon as possible." Li Fu said, "Go to the accountant and get some money. This matter must be handled quickly."

"Yes." Gu Jinggong responded.

Originally, they were just guards around Li Fu, responsible for protecting Li Fu's safety. Now, with insufficient manpower, Li Fu arranged them all out, and each of them was running around outside with their own tasks.

As for him, there were other guards from the Jingyang Wang's residence. After all, there was a large amount of money around, and the most guards were here.

The next day, three large iron pots were delivered here.

The stove had been cleaned up long ago. When the three large iron pots arrived, they were directly put on the stove, and then the gaps around the pots were smeared with white ash to make them sealed.

The tea farmers who went up the mountain to pick tea also brought fresh tea leaves. They set up a stall at the door of the house, weighed them on the spot, and then paid according to the kilogram.

Although the documents were in hand, Li Fu still bought the first batch of tea by kilogram.

If the tea farmers are willing to sign the documents with the tea house, they will be paid monthly in the future. If they are not willing, then after this spring, there will be nothing for them to do in the tea mountain.

After all, Li Fu has already bought it.

In this case, the tea pickers in the village have signed documents with the tea house. What they signed is not a contract to sell themselves, but just working for the tea house.

Tea pickers have no access to the tea-frying yard; they are only responsible forIt is only responsible for transporting fresh tea leaves from the tea mountain to here.

The people who were asked to buy tea from the tea shop in Huizhou City have also arrived. Now that spring has come and it is warm, we just need to arrange a house for them to live in temporarily. Although the conditions are a bit difficult, they are definitely better than those in the tea shop.

It is impossible to recruit so many people in a short time and arrange them to their satisfaction.

The tea shop is still under construction. After the tea shop is built, the people working in the tea shop will have a better living environment.

After all, all of Li Fu's workshops have employee dormitories.

Some of the people working in the workshops are "own people" in Li Fu's original house. They originally lived in Li Fu's house. Later, they went to the workshop and temporarily lived in the employee dormitory. At the end of last year, they saved enough wages and began to think about building a house on the farm.

In the future, I still want to marry a wife and have children.

Including those who were later bought back from the tea shop by Lao Zhao and Lao Zhou, after making money, they also want to have their own house.

If I really need to find a wife in the future, I can't live in the staff dormitory with my family.

The staff dormitory is a dormitory with four people sleeping in one room.

Even if the dormitory was clean before, it will soon become messy with four grown men living together. Even if there is one who likes cleanliness, he can't beat three who don't.

In the morning, Li Fu met these people who were about to learn to stir-fry tea.

"Although you were all bought here from the trade, no one here will treat you harshly or abuse you like before. On the contrary, you will be taught the skills to support your family. When the tea house is built, you will work in the tea house. I won't say anything else, but you can earn enough money to build a house and marry a wife. This is definitely possible." Li Fu said, "But don't count on me for finding a wife. I don't have a wife myself."

Li Fu made a small joke appropriately.

It livens up the atmosphere.
