Mingmen Family

Chapter 167 Master Wu Comes Again

In the end Ye Yaming concluded: "So this marriage is not the best choice for me or him."

When Ye Hongrong heard that Lu Guanyi had such a powerful stepmother, he immediately gave up the idea of ​​matching the two.

He himself is a fool waiting to die, so he thinks that Ye Yaming has no shortage of food and clothing, so wouldn't it be good to invite a son-in-law to live a happy life at home?Why go to Lu's house to suffer!
"That's it. If you say that, I will know how to do it. Let's pretend that we don't know about this. If he really wants to tell you, if you can't refuse, just push it on me, and I will tell him Say." He patted his chest.

"Okay, I'll count on my fourth uncle then." Ye Yaming said with a smile.

……

Xin'an City is much smaller than Lin'an, far less prosperous, and has limited spending power.There are [-] to [-] teahouses, large and small, in Lin'an City, and there are only about ten in Xin'an City, and only these two are as large as Pinyaxuan and Wangjianglou.

So in the morning Fang Xing asked a gangster to show Yinzi the way, Ye Yaming and Ye Hongrong had already visited the larger teahouses, and in the afternoon they had nothing to do.

Thinking about running around again tomorrow, Ye Yaming decided not to go anywhere in the afternoon, and rested in the inn.

But he didn't want Lu Guanyi and Qi Ji next door to go out for a while, the doorman came to report, saying that Mr. Wu from Pin Yaxuan came to visit.

"Is this the idea of ​​making our tea recipe again?" Ye Hongrong said.

Ye Yaming first said to the boy: "Please come in."

The boy went out, Fang Xing also went out, ready to welcome guests.

Fang Xing went out this time with the name of being the steward of the Ye Mansion.Ye Yaming went out to discuss business, wrote the contract after the deal was completed, dealt with the shopkeeper of the teahouse, and greeted and sent off, all of which were done by him.

Originally, Ye Chongming was worried that Ye Yaming was a junior and couldn't control Ye Hongrong; he was also worried that Fang Xing was too young and inexperienced, and Ye Yaming would have to worry about something, so he wanted to send Zhou Xiang over.

But Ye Yaming refused.

She came out this trip with the intention of personally training Fang Xing.After going back this trip, she asked Fang Xing to stand alone.In the future, if there are newcomers, Fang Xing will lead them, and she will at most mention a few points.

If Zhou Xiang was around, how would she experience Fang Xing?Fang Xing and Zhou Xiang were not easy to get along with either.

As for Ye Hongrong, he was not as generous as Ye Chongming imagined.If he messes up, she has her own way to deal with him.

When Fang Xing went out, Ye Yaming said to Ye Hongrong: "He must still want the secret recipe, but maybe it will be soft and not hard."

After a while, Master Wu followed Fang Xing in, and Ye Hongrong stood on the porch to welcome him.

Ye Hongrong had a bad impression of Mr. Wu, and was really impatient to greet him.

As soon as he sat down, Ye Hongrong said, "I don't know why Master Wu is here?"

Master Wu has drifted away since his granddaughter married Master Tongzhi and successfully became pregnant.In this city of Xin'an, even the stewards of the magistrate's mansion treated him with courtesy, let alone other people?He hadn't seen someone so rude to him for a long time.

He originally wanted to be a little more tactful, to probe the other party's thoughts.As a result, when Ye Hongrong asked him this question, he became sullen, and blurted out what was in his heart: "I don't know what I said yesterday, how are you two thinking?"

Seeing that he still dared to repeat the old story, Ye Hongrong was stunned for a moment, and then sneered: "Master Wu hasn't woken up yet? Didn't you ask who we are? Let me tell you, this world doesn't belong to your grandson-in-law. There is the emperor here, there are hundreds of officials below, there are many people in the world that you can't afford to offend. Mr. Wu wants to use his power to suppress people and take them by force, isn't this too boring?"

He dared to say this, but he was also floating.

In the past, no matter how rich the Ye family was, they had to keep their tails between their legs.A small official or even a servant in the yamen is sometimes enough for the Ye family to drink a pot.

But now with Lu Guanyi and Qi Ji as backers, Lu Guanyi still has a crush on his niece, no matter whether he gets married or not, and the Ye family is being bullied, Lu Guanyi will definitely not stand idly by.

That's why Ye Hongrong dared to say such a thing.

Master Wu was really taken aback, he was angry and annoyed, but he didn't dare to get angry, his old face was flushed.

The shopkeeper Zheng who came with him hurriedly smoothed things over: "Haha, Mr. Ye, you misunderstood. Our master didn't mean that. He wanted to ask you, if he wants to buy the tea recipe, how much money does he need, or does he need to pay for it?" What are you willing to sell? Don’t you want to buy tea mountains? Our master has quite a few top-quality tea mountains.”

"Anyway, we are not in the same province, and the two counties are far apart. Even if you exchange tea mountains with tea recipes, it won't affect your business, right? You can exchange hundreds of acres of tea mountains with one tea recipe. Why not do it?"

Ye Hongrong laughed angrily again: "You want to change a tea recipe for a few hundred acres of tea? You really think us stupid."

Like Lin'an, the top-grade farmland closest to the city is only 12 taels of silver per mu; the low-grade farmland is [-] taels.There is no comparison between Xin'an and Lin'an. The price of land is much lower, at most ten taels and one mu of top-grade land.This is still near the city.The outer suburbs will be lowered by one or two taels of silver.

The price of mountain land is at most half of that of inferior fields.Even if the tea mountain is more expensive than the general mountain area, it will not exceed six taels.

He wanted to buy their secret recipe for tea making for hundreds of thousands of taels of silver, and this master Wu said that it was not a robbery?

"No need, we won't change, no matter how many tea mountains there are." Ye Yaming stopped shopkeeper Zheng's words in time.

They are not bargaining, but simply look down on.

She won't hold the secret tea recipe in her hand all the time.Everyone is innocent, but pregnant is guilty.The Ye family has no power and power, but holds several secret recipes for tea making in their hands, which will definitely bring disaster.So with the right seller, she will sell.And it won't just sell one.

But she will not change Chashan.

At this time, people used the most primitive planting method to grow tea, that is, planted with tea seeds and allowed the tea trees to grow freely into trees or small trees.

The tea trees planted in this way have unstable tea quality, few buds, very low yield and very difficult to pick.

Later generations planted with cuttings, the tea is stable, and can basically maintain the good quality of the mother plant, and in the process of growing the tea tree, pruning and dwarfing it, the tea tree will become a shrub half the height of a person, with many buds, Good for picking.

The reason why she didn't tell Ye Chongming about this before is because tea trees need to be planted for three years before they can be harvested in large quantities.If she asked Ye Chongming to cut down the tea trees on Baiteng Mountain and replant them, the loss to the Ye family would be immeasurable, so she never mentioned this issue.

But now that she is buying a tea mountain again, she hopes that it will be a place that has not yet been planted. She will re-plan and design, choose the best quality tea tree as the mother plant, use cuttings, and let the farmers prune it on time.
