In the house, Ge Shou and Song Kai sat on one side, with a wooden table in the middle, and land deeds were placed on the wooden table.

"Song Lang, this is a land deed issued by the government and has legal effect. If you think there is no problem, we can deliver it." Ge Shou said seriously.

Song Kai browsed the land deeds generally, and there was no problem. He took out eighteen taels of gold ingots, put them on the table, and smiled and said, "Old Ge, we will be neighbors in the future. You are specializing in raising silkworms and I am specializing in selling tea, which is good."

Ge Shou laughed, "It is naturally great to be neighbors with Song Lang."

Song Kai stood up and walked towards the tea garden, and Mr. Ge followed behind.

There is no obvious dividing line between the tea garden and the mulberry garden. In the past, because they were all Mr. Ge, there were not many houses in the tea garden. The houses were mainly built in the mulberry garden. Now they are separated. The first thing Song Kai thought of was to build more houses in the tea garden. In summer, he would come here to play with his wife, concubines and others... He was intoxicated by thinking about it. This was simply a fairyland on earth.

When they arrived at the tea garden, more than a dozen farmer's deputies were waiting there. Some of these farmer's deputies lived in nearby villages, while others lived in simple wooden houses in the mulberry garden. For example, Qingniang, because her parents both died, she had been living in the mulberry garden, in charge of the big and small matters of the mulberry garden and the tea garden.

"Langjun, the tea leaves and iron pot you mentioned are ready," Qingniang walked up and whispered, "But if this tea leaves are roasted on fire, it will affect the taste. We have tried it before."

Song Kai nodded. Although he was not very proficient in tea, he liked drinking tea in his previous life. He still knew the basic green tea and black tea making methods.

"Frying tea leaves is a technical job," Song Kai walked over and checked the picked tea leaves. Yesterday, he specifically instructed the village managers in the tea garden to pick them in the morning, and only picked two leaves with buds on the branches of the tea tree, and picked them with the buds.

"It's okay. Although the quantity is not large, if it is only sold in my store, it should be able to last until Qingming Festival next year," Song Kai nodded while looking, and then said to the crooked Uncle Wang: "Uncle Wang, come here, I will teach you the basic method of stir-frying tea, you can make it."

Uncle Wang rubbed his hands excitedly, and his tilted mouth cracked a big hole, almost squeezing with his eyes.

When the iron pot is set, the fire should not be large, and it should be moderate. Don’t be too much tea each time. After putting the tea leaves in the pot, mix them quickly and stir with your whole arm at the bottom of the pot. When the tea leaves change slightly, they should be discharged from the pot. This step is called finishing.

Finishing the green tea is the most important step in making green tea. Whether the tea can be soaked with aroma and remove the bitter taste depends mainly on this step.

Song Kai just said that he would let Uncle Wang do it himself. After all, Song Kai only had theory and no practice.

After shaking down a handful of tea leaves, Uncle Wang took a deep breath, then looked at Song Kai with his tragic eyes.

Song Kai smiled and patted Uncle Wang on the shoulder, "Uncle Wang, don't be nervous. Even if it is fryed, I won't deduct your wages. Practice it to be true. Take your time. Once you master this technique, I will process the money for you."

When Song Kai said this, Uncle Wang grinned and smiled honestly, and felt relieved.

Stir quickly, the tea leaves change color slightly, and a fragrance instantly spreads, and then disappears.

Ge Shou, who was watching on the side, was originally smiling, but after smelling the fragrance of tea, his old face suddenly changed and he stared at the tea leaves in the pot in surprise.

When Ge Shou thought, Song Kai, a little kid, could he understand tea? Most people use onion, ginger, garlic, vinegar, etc. to mix tea soup, which is really a waste of resources. Ge Shou's opinion, tea should be natural, and taste the bitterness and mellowness in it is elegant.

But smelling the faint fragrance, Ge Shou suddenly became uneasy. He suddenly remembered something, a man, staring at Song Kai, tremblingly said, "Song...Song Lang! Could it be that you have seen Senior Lu's "Tea Classic"!"

"Senior Lu?" Song Kai looked at Ge Shou in confusion, and then ordered: "It should be almost done, let the tea out of the pot."

"Well," Ge Shou pulled Song Kai excitedly, "It's Senior Lu, Lu Yu and Lu Hongzhe, known as the Tea Saint."

Song Kai thought about it and found that the method of making tea and tasting tea had developed into a prototype during the Tang Dynasty. Later tea culture, including tea ceremony in Japan, was influenced by the book "Tea Sutra" written by Lu Yu.

Thinking of this, Song Kai felt a little guilty. After all, he didn't have much research on the tea ceremony, he just simply knew it.

Ge Shou held Song Kai's arm, "Song Lang, you must have seen Senior Lu's "Tea Sutra" right? Can you tell me...hehe, tell me what it is."

Song Kai nodded and said, "I have read it a little, but I have forgotten a lot of it. I still remember this method of making tea."

Ge Shou looked solemn and whispered: "Song Lang, you are indeed a person with unparalleled integrity and open mind! The method of making tea in other tea shops is secret and not passed on, but Song Lang taught them such precious skills. Ge... Ge is ashamed of himself! Alas!"

Song Kai scratched his head, but smiled, and felt ashamed in his heart. It turned out that the method of making tea is so precious, well, but that's right. The Tea Classic has not yet spread yet, so the method of making tea is of course precious. As for semi-fermented black tea and fully fermented black tea, it has not appeared now, and maybe you can try it in the future.

The first pot of tea came out, and the light fragrance spread. Song Kai rubbed it with his fingers, smelled the fragrance, and said, "It seems that time is a bit insufficient. Uncle Wang, please extend the pot a little longer."

"Yes!" Uncle Wang felt so fragrant that the first pot of tea was so clear, so he became confident and started making the second pot of tea.

Song Kai instructed others to do the next steps, and the next step was to twist and knead, and then dry it. These two steps had no technical content, so Song Kai was relieved.

"Looking at this situation, it will take about the evening to stir-fry the first batch of tea," Song Kai murmured, "I will wait here first and wait until I bring the first batch of tea before leaving."

After a long time of familiarity, the tea garden workers were familiar with the process. Uncle Wang tilted his mouth and became the core figure. He smiled honestly and kept stir-frying tea in the pot, while others were drying and rolling. Qingniang brought an apron and made overall arrangements.

Because I had to wait for a long time, Song Kai walked deep into the tea garden with his hands behind his back.

The mountains here are not high, but the forests on the mountain are dense, and the unmined mountains are full of thorns. Of course, there are many herbs and wild animals.

Song Kai went up the path of the tea garden, passed the tea garden, and then went to the foot of the mountain. Further up, there were woods, with continuous high and low hills connected together, surrounding most of the Taihu Lake.

"I'll go, what's this!"

Song Kai was startled and looked at a tree root with his head down. At the root of the tree, there was a large black Ganoderma lucidum growing.

"If such a big wild Ganoderma lucidum is at least sold for several thousand yuan in later generations," Song Kai quickly squatted down and muttered in his heart.

Unfortunately, I don't have any tools at hand.

After hesitating for a while, Song Kai still reached out to dig on the ground for a few times. Naturally, he had made up his mind not to be a doctor in this life, but digging such a Ganoderma lucidum should not be considered a violation of the oath. Although this kind of wild Ganoderma lucidum has not the magical effect as mentioned in martial arts novels, it is still very effective in treating asthma and replenishing qi and calming the mind. Maybe it will be used. Even if it is not used, it can be sold to Huichuntang, and it may be exchanged for hundreds of cents.
