Song Tan Jishi

Chapter 1335 1335. Start picking tea

Compared to Liu Liu's ambition and determination to make money, the others who joined in the fun seemed much calmer.

Especially Nian Xu, who was the top of the list, was still shy while carrying a basket: "I see that all the women are picking tea. I am a big man, so I am a little embarrassed to be among them."

The stomach-cutting brother had no expression on his face: "Why, I am not a man?"

Not only him, but there were four big men beside him, all carrying baskets! Everyone came together to recuperate, why do they have to be the background board?

Everyone stared at him, and Nian Xu couldn't help but be silent: "The main thing is... Life is pretty good here, and I don't have good tea picking skills, and I have to make money, which is embarrassing..."

That's right, after all, they have never done this job before. The tea in Yunqiao Village has a light taste, and spring tea is mainly tender Maojian - the tip of the leaf on the stem that has not yet unfolded. There are many fat people among them, and their fingers are short and fat. If they work hard in the field for a long time and can't pick a few tea leaves...

How embarrassing.

Just as they were struggling, the self-study sister passed by them with a basket, looking down on them as she walked: "You are so hesitant. We are here to work, and the boss didn't find any problems with us, but you are the first to be weak."

"What? Are you so unconfident when you work? It's understandable that you haven't been promoted or had a raise for so many years, and your health has been ruined."

She is an extrovert and chats with people coming and going in the village in the cafeteria every day. Now her dialect accent is much more natural.

Even sharper!

After a while of nursing, Danran's cheeks are now plump and healthy, and she speaks with more energy than before: "Don't say that, you're here too."

The youngest and least experienced girl with round eyes laughed: "Why think so much? Just treat it as an alternative spring outing! If we pick too little, just think of it as working for the boss's family for free for half a day. If it's okay, we can earn this extra money with peace of mind!"

"No overtime, no socializing, no superiors, as long as you are serious, it doesn't matter how much you pick. Where can you find such a good job?"

"Our company's cleaning lady earns 2,500 yuan a month and is still being criticized!"

It hurts!

But it also makes sense.

As they were talking, everyone had followed the large group to the tea mountain.

The tea mountain they came to was not the tea garden that the old Song family originally owned, near the chestnut garden, but the larger tea mountain that originally belonged to the abandoned old man Li's family, with more than ten acres of old tea trees and hundreds of acres of tea seedlings.

The tea seedlings are now growing vigorously, and some of them have been interplanted with early-maturing watermelons.

The old tea trees were carefully pruned after taking over last winter. After a winter of fertilization and cultivation, coupled with the suitable weather this spring, they have now grown layer after layer of green and tender leaves.

Anyone in the village who sees this will say that the old Song family is capable?

They grow vegetables well, and the tea leaves are also so vigorous!

Now, Wulan is reminding the novices: "We barely have enough people to pick tea, so you can just come here for fun, as long as the tea you pick is up to standard."

"In addition, if you have no experience, it is best to pick a row each. Because if you run around, the efficiency of the people behind you who pick the tea trees you have picked will be much slower."

"Try to pick the Maojian on each tea tree. If you don't pick them clean, they will grow into leaves later. The tea tree will feel that it has grown enough, and the regenerated buds will be thin and light, which will be difficult to pick later."

While saying this, they watched the aunties who had tied the baskets around their waists and picked tea leaves quickly with one hand or two hands.

Wulan also shouted: "Don't bring the leaves, otherwise we won't give you such a good price."

This was half a joke and half a serious one. The aunties in the village naturally knew that the weight and efficiency of Maojian and buds were naturally very different. Originally, everyone had some concerns because of the high price of 50 yuan per catty. Now that Wulan has reminded them, they feel embarrassed.

In addition...

Tea picking is not difficult at all in the eyes of the villagers. In addition, it is not the hottest time of the year yet, so it is not very hard.

And there are not only them in the field, but also this group of young men and women - if the quality of their Maojian is too poor, there are so many employees here, and Wulan really doesn't hire them, won't they be the ones who lose?

Everyone stared at the young people, and each of them was worried!

The young people have no idea how much an experienced old farmer will think. They have seen and learned, so they picked rows one by one, tied the basket around their waists, carefully pinched a handful of Maojian, took a photo and posted it on WeChat Moments!

Okay! Let's get started!

Meanwhile, the experienced Wulan did not forget to make a big promise: "Practice more, you will be able to pick more when you are more experienced. When you are leaving, I will give you half a day to pick tea leaves. I will fry all the tea leaves you pick as a souvenir."

Half a day? !

Everyone quickly calculated in their minds - I heard that an experienced person here can pick 4 jin a day, which is 2 jin in half a day. They are new, so one jin should be fine, right?

How much dry tea can be produced from one jin of Maojian? About 2.5 liang.

Wow!!!

Who wouldn't be tempted! Who doesn't know Qiao Qiao's tea leaves? At the beginning, it was 10,000 yuan per jin, and later it was sold by gram, and they had to fight for it every day!

And they make money, take care of their health, and get tea!

After hearing this, the young master Nianxu, who was a little uncomfortable at first, became energetic! Liu Liu was even more focused!

There is a rich young man among their colleagues. She often hears him say that he wants to spend a lot of money to buy tea. If she can get two or three taels at that time, I wonder if she can sell it to him directly?

Thinking of money and children, she became more excited!

But the aunt from the same village in front laughed: "Oh, just give it to the young people, don't we have it?"

Wulan also laughed: "They work overtime after the night shift, and they come from all over the world, just treat them as classmates!"

"Why, you earn several times more money than them? Are you envious of this?"

That's true.

Everyone doesn't know how much this tea is worth, but how can the legendary expensive tea be as real as money? Besides, every household has some tea, so what they need to do is to speed up, so as not to let the young people catch up!

After all, I heard that these people are all from big cities who come to vacation... Tsk, people in big cities really don't know how to enjoy themselves!

However, Maojian can't be given, Wulan added: "If it's still dry when we pick summer tea, let you pick it for half a day, okay?"

Update 1. Update 2 later, late at night.
