Martial Sage
Chapter 162: The Scent of Tea
There is an old saying: Be prepared for danger in times of peace.
Tang Hao understands this principle, and now the Eighteen Cavaliers have begun to form, even if they have already begun to train their subordinates.
When the safety issue is resolved, the next consideration is naturally the improvement of daily life.
Although he has traveled through it for several years, Tang Hao, who has experienced many conveniences in his previous life, is bound to be somewhat unacceptable to certain things in this era.
Take the toilet as an example. In the Tang Dynasty, paper was a cherished thing. Many candidates couldn't even buy paper for writing, let alone use it to go to the toilet. Of course, even some wealthy clans may not be extravagant to use paper to go to the toilet.
In other words, the crystal clear glass can be seen everywhere in the past life, but in this era, Tang Hao has this kind of utensil in his impression, but he has not seen it. It seems that this thing has not yet been popularized. Otherwise, the bronze mirror of the Tang Dynasty must have been reformed.
There are also alcohol, cotton cloth, adobe and so on, which are far from the previous life.
Of course, Tang Hao was thinking about these objects, not only for his own enjoyment, but the most important thing is to earn some silver.
Although this system has brought infinite convenience to oneself, in the end, the objects given by the system are rootless trees and water without a source, which will inevitably be exhausted in time.
What's more, now that the limelight is in full swing, I don't know how many pairs of jealous eyes are staring at own every move in secret.
Even Chang Sun Chong, a friend who already recognized himself as a close relative, raised doubts, let alone other people in Chang'an City?
None of it comes from its own industry, and you can't always use those unnecessarily old friends to give it to people's tongue.
Leaning against the desk, watching the maidservant make new tea next to her.
To tell the truth, Tang Hao didn't have a good feeling for this kind of tea from the Tang Dynasty. Some crushed new tea with some oil and ginger slices, the taste was really strong enough.
But there is no way, literati, do you want this elegant tune soon?
Moreover, the people of Datang seem to be relished in drinking this kind of tea.
Fried green.
This skill of roasting tea has not yet appeared in this era.
Looking at the glass of green soup that the maid handed over, Tang Hao really couldn't swallow it, not at the kind of occasion where the literati gathered together.
"Why not do it yourself?"
Once this idea came out, Tang Hao couldn't help it.
As he closed his eyes and rested his mind, he called out the tea saint Lu Yu in the system and reincarnated.
This ancestor who loves tea and is proficient in tea ceremony has not only studied the cultivation of tea trees, but also studied tea processing.
In the book "The Classic of Tea" written by Lu Yu, 24 tea utensils were listed. After a simple drawing of the general appearance, Tang Hao sent the craftsmen to start making these utensils.
This tea is mostly grown in the south, because the south is mostly acidic soil, which is conducive to the cultivation of tea, while the north is mostly alkaline soil, and tea gardens are very rare.
However, this imperial city of Chang'an is unambiguous, and there are still a small group of tea farmers in the outskirts.
At Tang Hao's order, the housekeeper sent someone to the East Market to purchase a basket of fresh tea leaves.
Tang Hao set up a big pot in the courtyard of his residence, took out the tea leaves, and showed the fellows to fry the tea on the spot as a demonstration.
About fried tea is a technology job.
One pot is full, the second pot is strong, and the third pot is drilled.
A seemingly simple sentence made Tang Hao, a novice, stood in front of the stove and pondered for a long time. After the two pots of frying, he finally found some doorways.
These guys were puzzled when they had seen such a tea stir-fry, until a wisp of refreshing fragrance appeared in the pot, their eyes lit up, as if they had discovered a new world.
Tang Hao allocated the four people and explained the three steps of heat control, color identification, and the condition of the tea when it reached the standard, and so on.
In a short time, the four guys gradually became proficient, and they were expert in controlling fire conditions. Not long after, a basket of green tea leaves in the hands of these guys became a small pot of tea leaves curled up.
Tang Hao grabbed a handful of fried tea leaves, put it on the tip of his nose and sniffed, the familiar fragrance came over his face.
Tang Hao nodded in satisfaction and ordered.
"Keep these tea leaves away, remember not to fry them in front of outsiders in the future, and you can't tell them."
Since ancient times, tea has always been indispensable and an extremely profitable industry.
Especially in this era when the skill of roasting tea has not yet appeared, if it can monopolize tea trading, it will definitely bring terrible wealth.
After being taught for more than a long time, I finally trained four tea craftsmen who can go on the road. Naturally, I don't want to leak this tea-frying skill.
Tang Hao divided the fried tea leaves among five small celadon urns and ordered.
"From now on, the four of you will specialize in frying tea. As for the salary, I will double it."
When he was properly ordered, Tang Hao returned to the house with a small celadon urn.
Pinch a pinch of new tea from the celadon urn, pour it into the teapot, and brew it with boiling water.
Seeing the subtle changes in the tea leaves in the water, and smelling the faint fragrance in the nose, Tang Hao slowly took a sip. The lingering tea fragrance in the tongue made people feel unexplainably comfortable.
In a different era, Tang Hao almost burst into tears when he tasted a familiar taste.
Finally, I don’t have to drink the traditional Chinese medicine soup.
