Chapter 692: The Tea Making Process
692.
Tea-making process
Hearing Li Ran say this, Li Pojun also understood that no matter what era it is, black and white collusion is not visible, and there are ministers or families in the court who support gangs and carry out some shady deeds, which naturally cannot be easily investigated.
Immediately, Li Pojun also said bluntly: "You pay more attention, try to find out the forces behind the scenes, ask for people, ask for money, I will give you a way, you can let people break into those two gangs to make internal responses, so that it is easier to obtain useful information."
Li Ran smiled when he heard this, scratched his head and said, "Hehe, Lang Jun also thought of going with us, we have arranged for more than a dozen people to enter the Sanying Club and the Rush Gang, and one of them has become a small leader."
Li Pojun nodded and praised when he heard this, and then admonished: "You also have to guard against the inside of the World Association, I am the person behind the scenes, only you, Chen Ping, Chen Zhou, the three of them can know, once the rest of the World Association knows, they will be killed immediately."
Li Ran also nodded when he heard this, "Don't worry, Lang Jun, we are hiding, now the people who know that I am the president only have a few cronies and leaders, and the brothers below only know Er Chen."
Li Pojun raised his eyebrows when he heard this, he only knew Erchen? I don't know the president? "What if Er Chen overthrew you and became the actual controller?"
Li Ran smiled when he heard this, "No, betraying me is not betraying Lang Jun, they don't have that guts, how dare a small gang offend His Royal Highness the Prince, they still have to rely on Lang Jun to survive."
Li Pojun also smiled when he heard it, indeed, he underestimated the power of his Royal Highness the Prince, although there are high-ranking officials in the court such as Wang Qi and Wang Yao who are not afraid of him, but His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is a big man for ordinary grassroots people, and it is only the Son of Heaven, how dare he betray it.
"Now I will give you a task to the World Association, thoroughly investigate and advise the doctor Wang Yao, give you a month, I want to know all the things that Wang Yao has violated the law and discipline, I don't believe it, Wang Yao and others will have no stains at all, even if they don't, you have to create something for me." Li Pojun said viciously.
Although the Tianxia Association is famous and majestic, most of its members are some ruffians and hooligans, such a person Li Pojun's only role is to find out the news, act as eyes and ears, and make some money by the way, the ruffians and hooligans walk through the market, what kind of news can not be obtained, as long as you can pay money, the clothes of what color the concubines of a certain official can find out.
Li Ran smiled when he heard this, "Okay, Lang Jun, look at it, in less than a month, half a month will be able to reveal all of Wang Yao's old background to you."
Seeing that Li Ran was so confident, he said that he could find out in half a month, Li Pojun was also worried about his bad things, and said bluntly: "I don't want those peachy anecdotes in the market, what I want is evidence of violations of law and discipline that can knock Wang Yao down."
Li Ran patted his chest and assured when he heard this, "Don't worry, Lang Jun, you can't make a mistake, I think that the children of the family are suddenly high-ranking officials, and it's no wonder that there is no dirty foundation, it is estimated that there are no fewer small crimes such as embezzlement of property and bullying and dominating the market, hehe, there are probably a lot of prohibited things in the family, as long as you investigate thoroughly, you will always find out something."
Hearing Li Ran say this, Li Pojun was relieved, and while speaking, Li Tie had already moved the tea transported from Chang'an into the warehouse and came to ask for instructions.
Li Zheng also called the tea craftsmen who were recruited, and looked at the four honest and dark-faced tea craftsmen in front of him, Li Pojun was very polite, and said bluntly: "Look, serve tea."
This is to scare the four craftsmen, busy kneeling to thank you, this is the dignified prince, actually let them sit down, and give them tea, it is a great gift, holding the tea and shaking non-stop, very excited.
Seeing this, Li Pojun was also helpless, class concept, he couldn't change the general trend, he could only do his best, showing a warm smile on his face, Li Pojun asked directly: "I heard that several craftsmen are skilled tea craftsmen, I don't know how you usually make tea?" ”
Hearing His Royal Highness the Prince's question, the four craftsmen, you look at me, I look at you, and the last old man who was about forty or fifty years old trembled and bowed: "If you go back to Your Highness, we will generally make tea in six steps: picking, steaming, pounding, patting, roasting, and storing."
Li Pojun was stunned when he heard this, and stretched out his hand and asked, "Is this a secret that is not passed on?" Can you elaborate on that?"
When the old man heard this, he was busy and said: "Don't dare, the method of making tea is known all over the world, but the important thing is experience, novice tea making does not know the heat must not work, do it for a long time to master the heat, after being proficient, it is an experienced tea maker, only to make good tea cakes." When it comes to making tea, the old man is also in high spirits, and his spirit is flying.
And looking at the proud appearance of his head, this old man should be enough to say that he is experienced.
Li Pojun smiled and said bluntly: "Dare to ask the name of the old man? How is the tea-making process? ”
When the old man heard this, he shrank his shoulders again, and hurriedly replied: "Your Highness calls me Lu Lao Liu, the old man does not dare to boast of his skills, but this tea-making craft has been passed down for several generations, and the old man has learned to make tea since he was a child, and he has been doing it for thirty or forty years, and he has some experience, and the tea he makes is all good."
Seeing this little old man talking like this, Li Pojun also felt funny, and the old man didn't know where he was from Huxiang, he spoke with a thick accent, and his name was "Lu Lao Lu".
What Li Pojun wants is an experienced tea craftsman, and he doesn't want to be a fake when he sees this Lu Lao Liu's words, so he immediately said: "Please also invite Lu Lao... Let's talk about the steps of making tea." Li Pojun is still an outstanding young man under the red flag when he falls to the ground, how bad it is to call the old man by his name, it is to call Uncle Lu.
If Li Pojun wants to make fried tea, he must know what the current tea-making process is, after all, Li Pojun only knows that fried tea is fried in an iron pot, and he doesn't know anything else.
Lu Lao Liu was also excited when he saw Li Pojun's courtesy, and he was busy and said endlessly: "Your Highness knows that the first step in making tea is to pick tea, and tea picking is to pick it from the tea tree, and the basic thing to make tea is to make good tea, and it has to be the young leaves on the tip of the tea tree, and the tea made by the old leaves must be inferior...... The second step is to steam the tea, which is also the most critical step, put the young leaves of the fine tea into the steaming barrel, and steam it with boiling water...... Step 3: Mash ...... The fourth step is to shoot and form...... Then it is baked in a furnace, which is also important in the heat, and the fire must be appropriate, and finally it is pierced and sealed."
