Xu Jin glanced at Fei Ruyi in surprise, the latter's pretty face was even more white and red in the autumn sun, at this time, it was estimated that he was a little embarrassed by Fei Jixiang's praise, and lowered his head and took a sip of tea.

If it was just Fei Xiaoyu, the little pepper, who said so, Xu Jin still suspected that there was an element of boasting, but even Fei Jixiang admired Fei Ruyi's tea art so much, Xu Jin naturally believed it.

In his previous life, Xu Jin could be regarded as a person who had mixed into the upper class, and these rich and idle people were either vassals and elegant, or indulgent and degenerate. vassal elegance likes to engage in calligraphy, painting, tea art, collection, photography and other high-taste activities; And indulgence and depravity are naturally inseparable from gambling, women and drugs.

Xu Jin naturally belongs to the former, and has also attended several tea art training classes. Of course, Xu Jin did not learn tea art all for the sake of vassal elegance, but to be able to better communicate with the people in the circle. At the beginning, Xu Jin went to the class to learn tea art in order to talk about business with a tea-loving boss, and later he became interested in tea art, so he applied for several improvement classes.

In the tea art circle, Xu Jin did meet such a cow man, whose tongue could accurately distinguish dozens of brands of mineral water. The taste buds of this kind of person are quite developed, so the sense of taste is very sensitive, and it can be said that there is no one in a million.

Xu Jin's level of tea art is barely handy, and it is difficult for him to distinguish the varieties of tea, as long as it is familiar tea, he can taste it, but if he wants to distinguish the water quality, he does not have that ability. Because the difference in the taste of water is very small, in order to distinguish what kind of water it is, in addition to rich experience, you must also have developed taste buds, which is a kind of talent that cannot be made up for the day after tomorrow.

At this time, Xie Xiaowan couldn't help but ask curiously: "Sister Ruyi, is it really like what Sister Jixiang said?" ”

Fei Ruyi shook her head and smiled: "Sister Xiaowan, don't listen to the fourth sister's nonsense, people are so powerful, it's just ...... I can really tell the top ten famous springs in the world. ”

The so-called top ten famous springs in the world are the rankings given by Lu Yu, the author of "The Book of Tea". Lu Yu is a native of the Tang Dynasty, and his "Book of Tea" is the first book on tea in history, and he himself is therefore called a tea fairy, respected as a tea saint, and worshiped as a tea god.

Lu Yu once traveled to several provinces in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River, tasted the water sources of various places, and finally discharged the top ten famous springs in the world according to the quality of the water, of which six were as many as six in Jiangxi, and the rest were in Jiangsu and Zhejiang.

It is said that Fei Ruyi's father Fei Dian is fond of tea, and he can be said to be a tea addict, Fei Ruyi has been exposed to it since he was a child, and he also has a strong interest in tea, so at a young age, his attainments in the tea ceremony are not low.

Moreover, Fei Dian often spent huge sums of money to order people to transport water from various famous springs to his home to make tea. Because of this, Fei Ruyi has had the opportunity to come into contact with the ten famous springs since he was a child, and he can tell which place the water is as long as he tastes it. Fei Dian is very proud of this, and often boasts about it to tea lovers.

Xu Jin naturally knew the origin of the Ten Famous Springs, and when he heard this, he couldn't help but feel moved in his heart, and asked, "Ruyi girl, what is the main battle of the Ming Zhan?" ”

Fei Ruyi's beautiful eyes and Xu Jin's gaze touched and avoided it a little shyly, and said eloquently: "The fight of tea is nothing more than fighting tea sets, tea leaves, water, and tea art." Tea art mainly depends on the technique of making tea, the color, aroma and taste of tea soup.

However, the tea battle in this tea market is Zhang Luo of the Tea Chamber of Commerce, it is just a utilitarian tea fight, there is no ornamental value at all, the steps are relatively simplified, and the top ten will be determined in the end. ”

The real tea war between the masters and gentlemen, will choose a place with beautiful mountains and rivers and elegant environment, it is best to build a tea house next to the mountain stream, while burning incense and whisking the piano, take out each other's treasured tea sets and tea leaves, appreciate the exquisiteness of the tea sets, taste the fragrance of the tea soup, and achieve spiritual pleasure while learning from the tea art.

Therefore, Fei Ruyi was very disdainful of the so-called tea battle held in the tea market, with a hint of contempt in his tone.

Han Chuang rolled his eyes and asked with his fists rubbed, "Then is there a silver reward for the top ten of this Ming War?" ”

Huang Desheng, who was standing next to him, said with a smile: "There is no silver reward, only the right to recommend, and the top ten people who have won the tea war can recommend a tea on the spot as the top ten famous teas in this tea market." ”

After Huang Desheng finished speaking, there was a look of envy in his eyes, he wanted to get the right to recommend tea, but unfortunately he didn't have that ability, and the top ten tea markets in each tea market were almost monopolized by the Fang family. There is no way, people are wealthy, and they have many tea war masters.

Xu Jin couldn't help but suddenly realize that this is not advertising with the help of events, just like the sports star of later generations endorsing a brand, and the product will improve brand awareness with the help of the effect of the star, and the sales and price of the product will naturally be popular.

Xu Jin's mind couldn't help but come alive, and he took a sip of the black tea in front of him, although this small black tea is not accepted at the moment, but it will be "red" half of the sky in the future, bringing hundreds of thousands of taels of silver to the Qing government every year, and even forcing Westerners to dump opium in China to balance trade, inducing the later Opium War.

Therefore, black tea will be a huge business in the future, of course, provided that black tea can be shipped to Europe, and now the Ming Dynasty has not opened the sea ban.

Xu Jin drank two sips of black tea, and suddenly smiled at Huang Desheng and said, "Boss Huang, how about talking to you about a business?" ”

When Han Chuang heard this, his eyes rolled, and he immediately pricked up his ears, and said secretly in his heart: "Xu bites the silver again!" ”

Huang Desheng is an old fox in the shopping mall, and said with a smile quietly: "Xu Gongzi is a scholar, so he is also interested in business?" ”

Xu Jin said calmly: "Zi said: The people take food as the sky. Scholars are also people, food, clothing, housing and transportation are all money and silver, regardless of whether they are commercial or agricultural, as long as they can make money, they are legal and law-abiding, so why bother so much. ”

Huang Desheng was in a happy mood when he heard this, and gave a thumbs up and said: "Xu Gongzi is high-minded, contemptible people just can't get used to those sour Confucians, obviously they can't even afford to eat, and they still want to save face...... Hehe, what business does Xu Gongzi want to talk about with contemptible people? ”

Huang Desheng suddenly woke up that Xu Jin and the Fei brothers were also scholars, so he hurriedly stopped and diverted the topic a little embarrassed.

Xu Jin didn't care, he was a traverser, but he didn't have the pedantic values of "everything is inferior, only reading is high", and said with a smile: "I can help you open up the sales of black tea, but I want to account for 20% of the profits of the black tea business." ”

As soon as these words came out, Fei Maoxian and Fei Maozhong glanced at each other helplessly, Ziqian is good at everything, but he is too keen on making money.

As the saying goes, if you don't know the price of firewood and rice, the Fei brothers have lived a worry-free life since they were children, so they naturally don't know the importance of money and silver.

It's like betting 100,000 taels with Fang Tianyou a few days ago, if Xu Jin has 100,000 taels, he doesn't need to borrow the momentum of Hui merchant Luo Longwen at all. Even if he gambled three thousand taels later, Xu Jin would have to risk bankruptcy, so there would never be too much money and silver. This black tea will be a huge business in the future, and since there is an opportunity, Xu Jin naturally wants to take the lead and get a piece of the pie.

Huang Desheng is a pure businessman, a businessman pays attention to profits, and he will consider anything that is profitable, so he can't help but ponder when he hears it.

Xu Jin didn't urge, just drank tea calmly, that kind of calm appearance of being young and old, which made Fei Xiaoyu roll his eyes - too dragged!

Huang Desheng rolled his eyes and asked with a smile: "What method is Xu Gongzi going to use to open up the sales of black tea?" ”

Xu Jin smiled and said: "What method do you know, anyway, I am responsible for opening up the market, not to mention, even if it fails, Boss Huang has no loss, right?" ”

Huang Desheng said with a smile: "What Xu Gongzi said is very true, okay, as long as Xu Gongzi can help open up the sales of black tea, the profit of black tea sold today will be divided into two percent by Xu Gongzi." ”

Xu Jin frowned and said: "Boss Huang, this is not interesting enough, I want 20% of the profits of the black tea business, if it is only today's profit for one day, I can't look down on it." ”

Huang Desheng's face changed slightly: "Xu Gongzi didn't come out with anything, isn't it a bit too much to take 20% of the black tea business with just one mouth?" ”

The Fei family brothers turned their faces when they heard this, and Xie Xiaowan lowered her head embarrassedly, obviously thinking that the white wolf with empty gloves was a bit too much.

Xu Jinjian's eyebrows raised slightly, and he said calmly: "Boss Huang is in the picture, what does it mean to rely on just one mouth?" Of course, if you can open up the sales of black tea with just one mouth, it is also a kind of ability.

What's more, after the black tea is opened, it is not just sold today, but the business will come one after another in the future. ”

Boss Huang was speechless for a moment, in fact, he also understood this truth, but Xu Jin just helped to open up the market, and he didn't have to do anything in the future, but he took 20% of the dry shares of the black tea business for "white", which made him very unhappy.

Xu Jin slowed down and smiled: "Boss Huang, take a long-term view, don't just stare at the small profits in front of you, I dare to guarantee that the black tea business will reach the level of 100,000 taels or even more in the future." ”

Huang Desheng naturally didn't believe it, but now there is no market for black tea, and the hundreds of catties of black tea stored in the tea field will be lost, and it is better to earn less than to lose money, in case Xu Jin really opens up the market, let alone reach the level of 100,000 taels, it is quite good to have a few hundred taels, and he has given Xu Jin two percent, and he still has eighty percent of the profit.

Huang Desheng hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth and said: "Okay, this business is contemptible and contemptible to do it, and there is no basis for what you say, and it is based on words." ”

Xu Jin naturally didn't care, and made a contract with Huang Desheng on the spot, and the two sides pressed their fingerprints.

Han Chuang looked at Xu Jin and admired him, and looked at others, he didn't pay a penny, he just played tricks and got 20% of the shares, this is a master of doing business out of nothing.

Of course, Han Chuang is not optimistic about this black tea business, this thing is too clumsy, and a fool will buy it.
