Martial Sage

Viscount Mansion.

Tang Hao and Wu Tong returned to the Viscount Mansion.

The housekeeper reported on the tea purchased in the past two days, said.

"Lord, you have fried the tea you bought in accordance with your instructions. There are fifteen cans."

Fifteen cans!

Hearing this number, Tang Hao was extremely happy.

However, what the housekeeper said next made Tang Hao unhappy in an instant.

"There are too few tea gardens near Chang'an City. Most of them have not grown into old trees and the amount of picking is small. Especially the quantity of this fresh and tender tea is even smaller."

After listening, Tang Hao felt a little regretful.

He also heard from the older generation that this tea tree can only be picked after three or four years. At this time, only the top picking method can be used to obtain a small amount of tea.

After ten years of adulthood, there are many branches that can be harvested in large quantities, and thirty years later, it will begin to age. It is necessary to cut the base of the tree and wait for the tea tree to re-grow. After this round is completed, tea trees need to be dug up and planted again.

What's more, the amount of fertilizer in the Tang Dynasty was not as much as that of later generations, and it even lowered the output of tea.

Therefore, the tea that Tang Hao made can only be supplied in a small amount at present, and can only earn the copper plates of the princes and nobles.

Just after Tang Hao finished his dinner and collected the fifteen tins of treasures, Jia Ding came to report and a visitor came.

When Tang Hao left the yard and saw Du Rumei and Fang Xuanling, two court officials, Tang Hao was a little confused.

Tang Hao knew that these two people were former friends of Li Jing, but even when he was in Li Mansion, he had no friendship with these two veterans. Why would these two appear in his own mansion at this time?

Could it be that he took office in Dali Temple, these two civil servants came to ask about his future as a military or a civilian?

Out of courtesy, Tang Hao, with a face of doubt, invited the two of them to the own hall.

Tang Hao looked at the appearance of the two who didn't want to say anything, but instead looked around his own house.

With a touch of doubt, Tang Hao asked.

"What are the two adults looking for?"

As soon as the words fell, the two veterans looked at each other, smiled slightly awkwardly, and took their seats slowly without responding.

Du Rumei sat in front of the case table, glanced at Tang Hao, looked at the clean case table, and questioned.

"Tang boy, you just treat guests like this? How can we say that they are also your elders, you are so impolite."

Hearing this, Tang Hao was a little confused.

At this time, it was almost night, and these two old ministers came uninvited to watch them put on two tables of wine and food for entertaining.

Stunned for a moment, Tang Hao waved to the housekeeper.

"Go, let the dining room be served by a table of wine and food."

Before the housekeeper left, Fang Xuanling spoke, and said with a slight disgust.

"Who cares about the wine and food in your house? Besides, it's almost night, and I can't eat the wine and food."

"what"

Tang Hao couldn't help being surprised and even more confused.

The two veterans, who are visiting at this time, do not drink, what do they mean?

Suddenly, Tang Hao's heart brightened! These two are definitely here for tea!

This time above the court is the dispute between civil and military. These veterans must have gone to Changsun Wuji's Mansion, and tasted the tea that Changsun Wuji had taken from him at Changsun's Mansion, so they came here on purpose!

Tang Hao could even think that after seeing Changsun Wuji's tea, these two old officials asked for a sip in every way. In the end, Changsun Wuji regarded the three pots of tea as treasures, and simply pushed the two to him. of.

Although Changsun did not interfere in the affairs of the state, it did not mean that he did not meet like-minded friends from the DPRK and China, just as Changsun Chong did not interfere in the dispute between the prince and the prince, but still established diplomatic relations with the king of Wei.

Tang Hao hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth and said.

"Forget it, go inside and take a can of tea out."

The housekeeper Fushen gave a salute, and in response, she turned to get tea for the present.

Fang Xuanling and Du Rumei's eyes lit up, and they looked at each other, and a smile appeared on their faces.

Two cups of tea were brewed for a stick of incense. The two veterans couldn't wait to pick up the tea cups, and took a sip while blowing.

Du Rumei recalled the fragrance of the tip of his tongue, and said.

"Good tea! Good tea! No wonder the eldest grandson is so stingy."

Fang Xuanling smacked his tongue.

"Drinking tea for a lifetime, I know today that this is tea!"

Tang Hao looked at these two veterans like children for food, and suddenly found it interesting.

After tasting half a cup, Fang Xuanling put down the tea cup and looked directly at the celadon on the table, said.

"Tang boy, let's discuss how many cans do you have here? I will pay a high price."

Hearing this, Du Rumei almost squirted out the tea, and said with some annoyance.

"Hey! I said Lao Fang, don't be so unkind. On the way here, I had already agreed with one person and half."

Seeing that the two were fighting again, Tang Hao smiled.

"Well, since the two elders both like to drink tea, I will give each one a can, and there is no need for you to fight."

"It's just that this fresh tea is very difficult to buy. I don't have much in my house. I hope the two elders keep it secret."

Two cans of tea can meet these two important officials in the central government and make a good relationship. Of course, Tang Hao is willing to do such things.

The tea is gone, you can stir fry again. But the opportunity to meet the two important ministers is not something you want to have.

"My nephew, you said earlier that there is a tea plantation on the old man’s house. Give me 10% of the fried tea every month."

"Hey! Lao Du, our tea garden is next to each other, and we are blessed to share it. Tang Xiaozi, I will also give you my share, but I can say that I will divide 10% of the tea."

After listening to the two suggestions, Tang Hao's heart brightened. With the tea gardens of these two great families, at least the tea for the four seasons of the year is available, and the tea shop's affairs can be looked forward to!

Looking at the look in the two veterans' expectant eyes, Tang Hao smiled faintly.

"Well, I can help take care of the tea plantation. I will provide you with 30% monthly, how about it?"

Fang Xuanling and Du Rumei looked at each other, and both read the surprises and surprises from each other's eyes.

With these two tea gardens, the new teas that are roasted will be enough to buy dozens of tea gardens that are as big within a few months after they are on the market.

More importantly, dealing with officials of the humerus like Fang Xuanling and Du Rumei will have infinite benefits for your future career.
