Mingmen Family

Chapter 183 Coping
At this moment, he added a sentence, endorsing the Ye family: "Probably because the Ye family is a family of good deeds and focuses on making tea, so Ye Xiaoyou was born in the Ye family and promoted the development of Dajin tea."

Princess Yuning looked down at the teacup in her hand, thoughtfully.

Master Zhizhi said to Fan Yu again: "It's very rare for you to be interested in tea making. But the period from Ming Dynasty to early summer is the busiest tea making season for the Ye family. Even better than her father. But if you want to come to Ye Erye, he will not be idle. He can accompany you for about three or four days."

"In addition, the reason why the Ye family tea tastes better than other teas must have their unique secret skills, which are not known to outsiders. When you go to his tea factory to see it, remember not to act recklessly."

Princess Yuning and Fan Yu were juniors in front of him, and they both stood up and listened to Tan Xuan.

"Thank you, Uncle Huang, for your suggestion." Princess Yuning saluted.

The three of Ye Hongsheng didn't know what happened after Dainu and Zan'er left.They went down the mountain the next day, and when they returned to the mansion, they called two people to question them.

"Fan Consort and others are here?" Ye Hongsheng said pleasantly.

He said to Ye Chongming: "They have read the "Tea Classic", and they are particularly interested in the growth environment of tea trees and how to make tea. At this time, they are in Lin'an, and they come here to see the tea garden."

If it was before, Ye Chongming would definitely be ecstatic.

The Ye family has no background and no backer, but they are still very rich. They still do tea business, and they feel like walking on a cliff every day.Being able to get acquainted with powerful people and develop a little network of contacts is very important to the Ye family.

But now, he is very annoying.

Don't come early, don't come late, why come at this time.Don't they know that now is the busiest time for the Ye family?

If in previous years, there was an old tea maker around, Ye Hongsheng could let him go.But now that Ye Yaming has just brought out the fried green tea, Ye Hongsheng has to make the tea himself and teach those apprentices, he really can't get away.

But the powerful cannot be offended.

These people don't know the sufferings of the people. If you tell him that if you don't work this season, the Ye family will have to drink northwest wind for a year. They don't understand, they just think you don't know how to praise.

"Ming'er, what do you think we should do?" He asked Ye Yaming.

In Ye Yaming's eyes, there is only happiness but no worries.

She said: "Tomorrow there are not many green teas, so I can fry them by myself. Dad, you can go and accompany Fan Consort and the others. Treating them well will be of great benefit to our family's tea in the future."

Worrying that Ye Chongming still couldn't understand the truth, she said, "Grandfather, if you think about it this way, if it weren't for Concubine Fan's support, this Longjing tea would only be able to sell for 200 taels of silver at most; It can be sold for 1000 taels. Do you want to produce 200 catties and sell it for 1000 taels, or do you want to produce [-] catties and sell it for [-] taels?"

"Of course it's the latter." Ye Chongming said firmly.

Ye Yaming smiled.

West Lake Longjing, in her time and space, was born as a tribute tea.That's because its technology research was done for tribute tea at the beginning, so it became a tribute to the Qing court as soon as it came out.That's what's great about it.

Now, she has the best Longjing tea production technology, and uses the stir-frying method that is ahead of the Dajin steamed greens. If there are royal family members such as Master Zhizhi, Yuning Princess and Fan Consort as guides, Longjing tea will sooner or later To be a tribute.

And once it becomes a tribute, the Ye family will fall into the eyes of the emperor.At that time, will anyone still dare to take the Ye family's idea?

Cooperating with Lu and Qi can certainly deter some young people, but Lu's mansion is just a marquis' mansion, and the biggest official of Qi's family is only a third-rank official.In Beijing, there are many honors higher than the Marquis, and officials higher than the third grade.

At this time, group tea is in power, and sweet-scented osmanthus tea is only a small tea, and the time is short, and it has not yet entered the eyes of those top dignitaries.

When the fried green tea comes out, there will inevitably be people who are more powerful than the Meng family and pay attention to the Ye family.

At that time, Lu and Qi will not be able to keep the Ye family.

She has promised to keep the Ye family safe and prosperous, but she is not willing to bear the burden of the entire Ye family family for life, so making Ye family tea a tribute tea is her far-reaching plan for the Ye family.

It's just that the horoscope has not been written yet, so it's not good for Ye Chongming to feel hopeful early, and she didn't say a word about it.

Ye Chongming let go of his worries, and suddenly became happy.

He also had a question: "What if they offered to see how the tea is made?"

Ye Hongsheng also looked at Ye Yaming.

"Let them watch the tea making process in the tea factory." Ye Yaming said. "The tea-making process of the original loose tea is roughly similar. Even if our family has its own secret technique, laymen like Concubine Fan and the others can only watch the excitement and cannot see the truth in it. Don't be afraid."

"As for Longjing tea, you can tell it's fried in a wok just by looking at it. You can tell them directly that this is the secret technique of the Ye family and it is not suitable to visit. If they want to experience picking tea for themselves, father, you can ask Steward Li to talk to them outside the city first. Greet the farmers, give them a sum of money, and let them experience it there, so that they don’t have to travel so far.”

The tea market in the south of the Yangtze River is prosperous, and there are slopes and small hills outside the city that are not suitable for growing grain, and tea will be planted there.Therefore, there are several large and small tea gardens outside the city.

"Will this offend them?" Ye Chongming was a little worried.

"I think they can understand it. If they can't understand it, it's okay. They won't punish us because of this. There is still a master of wisdom."

Ye Chongming felt relieved at the mention of Smart Master.

Ye Yaming looked at Ye Hongsheng and said seriously, "Father, remember, we have Yejia tea first, Longjing tea first, and then Fan Consort and others look at us differently. Tea is the foundation of our family. As long as Longjing tea With tea in our hands, we have no shortage of support from the rich and powerful. Don’t put the cart before the horse.”

What she said was actually for Ye Chongming.

Ye Hongsheng has the heart of a child.In his eyes, those dignitaries are not as important as his tea.So even if he was facing Fan Yu and his ilk, he could still maintain a normal mind, and he didn't feel that his status was lowly, and he was neither humble nor overbearing nor flattering.

This is probably the reason why Fan Yu and others are willing to associate with him.

But Ye Chongming is different.He has complicated thoughts and puts the interests of the Ye family above everything else.Ye Yaming was very worried that he would do something inappropriate in order to win the favor of Consort Fan and others.

"I see." Ye Hongsheng said.

Ye Chongming was also thoughtful.

Originally, he was still thinking about whether to invite Fan Yu and others to Ye Mansion as guests.The princess, the son-in-law, and all the dignitaries of the capital came to Ye's house as guests. This kind of experience can be boasted by him for a lifetime.

But what Ye Yaming said made him hesitate.

"Say, should we invite them to our house as guests? They come all the way, it seems bad that we don't invite them?" he asked.
