Song Tan's Notes

Chapter 1554. Tobacco Roasting Machine

This perfunctory approach made Boss Zhang smile.

He thought with some pride: Yes, it is obvious that everyone has noticed that I have made a lot of money after working hard outside for a year.

However, the happiness only lasted for three seconds, and then the woman next to him asked again: "Is it out of stock again? This old Chang! He is so slow to sell a membership card."

Boss Zhang took another sip of tea leisurely and said, "It's okay. He has such a big event, so he must have all the goods ready. You won't be unable to buy them."

But after saying this, except for the friend who came with him, the rest of the people showed a distrustful attitude. Boss Zhang couldn't help but drink another sip of tea silently, wondering what was wrong with this group of people? Can't they understand such a simple routine?

He was in a state of being the only sober person among all the drunk. At this moment, the tea artist added water to everyone's cups again, hesitated for a moment, and finally picked up the cup again.

In fact, this time, Boss Zhang really wronged Boss Chang.

He is not engaging in hunger marketing at all, it is obvious that he really has no goods.

Now at the end of May, the spring tea with the softest taste has long gone out of the market, leaving only the slightly bitter and astringent summer tea. Even so, the production is still not enough.

It’s not that the Song family doesn’t want to sell it to him. They have added a hundred acres of tea plants this year, but the problem is that most of them are planted with small tea seedlings, and there are only a dozen acres of old tea trees left.

After all the calculations, it is only a little more than the five acres of tea garden at home last year.

When the tea business was still good in the early years, any family could develop a tea garden of over a hundred acres. That's how the original tea trees on Old Man Li's mountain came from.

But now?

Boss Chang was taking care of various trivial matters in the backstage. When he heard people talking, he couldn't help but wipe the sweat from his forehead.

Fortunately, this time it was just a sideshow to promote the teahouse, the real focus was still on liquor tasting.

But then another waiter came to ask: "Boss, a customer asked, if he gets a membership card for 500 million, how much tea and wine can you sell him?"

Boss Chang felt happy, but also sad: ...The bad thing is, there isn't much liquor left!

To be honest, up to now, there are less than 500 kilograms of wine here in total - there is nothing we can do about it. We can't mix one kilogram of raw wine into a hundred kilograms, right?

If you want to maintain the taste, 1.5 times the amount is the limit.

He gritted his teeth, thinking about Song Tan's ten acres of sorghum this year, and thinking that liquor sales were not the goal, but membership cards and increasing brand awareness, so he could only bite the bullet and reply: "In the evening, I will go and talk in person in the evening..."

……

In the conference hall, tender green tea was rippling slowly in the fairness cup, and Boss Zhang had already added his fourth cup of tea.

This small teacup was only enough for one mouthful, so he didn't enjoy the drink very much, but the aftertaste in his mouth was really sweet, so he couldn't help but tap the table with his fingers, waiting for more tea.

However, the tea artist paused, brewed another cup of tea, and took back the fairness cup. Then he asked again: "You didn't eat too much fruit in the afternoon, did you?"

good question.

Everyone present was silent.

The tea artist said helplessly: "Hot tea and fruit together can easily cause diarrhea. Do you want to take a break?"

Boss Zhang said stubbornly, "Mixing hot tea with fruit can easily cause diarrhea. Pour it out first and let it cool down, right?"

And this is just a matter of probability. His stomach is in very good condition and will not be irritated at all.

Tea artist: ...The fruits served this afternoon are all chilled! The female customer next to her nodded and unscrewed her thermos cup: "Why don't you pour it for me first? I promise I won't blame you if I have diarrhea."

"Besides, if we wait any longer until night, I won't be able to sleep at night after drinking tea. It's not good for health."

Everyone: ...That makes a lot of sense!

……

The tasting session was going as Boss Chang expected, while in the old Song family in Yunqiao Village, Song Tan was wrapped up tightly, picking peaches in the peach orchard.

It is not yet the season for the hawkbill peaches to be on the market, and the peaches in the orchard are very limited. We only picked the first batch for emergency supply to Boss Chang so that his tasting session would not be limited to watermelons, cucumbers, tomatoes and the like.

But in such a large peach orchard, after sending dozens of kilograms of peaches, there are still some that are ripe and edible - this area is close to the roadside, and the light and temperature have always been slightly higher than other areas, so the ones that mature now are also relatively early.

Yang Zhengxin was walking back and forth inside, muttering like Xianglin Sao: "Qiao Qiao, when I leave, you must remember to send me peaches, and you have to send them by Fengfengbing!"

“Okay, okay.” Qiao Qiao patiently said: “Cucumbers, tomatoes, peaches, watermelons, potted vegetables, dried goods, various sauces, pickles, frozen buns and steamed buns…”

He counted them one by one, and it was obvious that he made more than three promises a day during this period.

Yang Zhengxin didn't feel embarrassed at all. Instead, he patted his chest and promised: "Send me the things now, and when the summer camp is over, I will take you back to our farm. We have machines that are many times bigger than this excavator!"

"When the time comes, you can come and harvest large tracts of plains at will! Tell me if it's fun or not?"

Qiao Qiao didn't know whether it was fun or not, after all, he hadn't experienced it yet. But he quickly asked, "Do you have an excavator at home? I want to drive that."

He was particularly envious of every movement of Brother Zhang's excavator, but his sister said that it was a machine that supported his family. If he broke it, Brother Zhang would definitely not ask for compensation, but would be sad in silence.

So he had no choice but to endure it.

The last time I drove a big machine was at the Agricultural Products Expo in the capital. But many of those machines were not equipped with the tools in front. Qiao Qiao was played with by Yang Zhengxin for a long time, but she still had Bai Yueguang in her heart.

joke!

Just an excavator!

Yang Zhengxin was extremely arrogant: "Don't worry! We have whatever machine you want... By the way, sister, I called my dad last night, and he said there are two tobacco drying machines in stock, do you want them?"

Huh?

Song Tan became interested: No tobacco was planted this year. After all, her father and grandfather’s smoking addiction had decreased a lot, and most of the tobacco was given away.

She also secretly gave some to Lu Chuan, allowing him to indulge in soaking water and watering the flowers.

But Secretary Xiaozhu kept asking about this thing, and the simple tobacco curing room at the beginning was demolished when the house was rebuilt.

She was curious: "Inventory?"

"Yeah." Yang Zhengxin said, "It was a trial run at the beginning, but tobacco farmers basically have simple tobacco curing houses at home, which is cheaper."

Although it needs someone to keep an eye on it all the time, family manpower is the cheapest, so even though the machine is not expensive, not many were sold.

He asked about this because he saw Song Youde pressing tobacco into his pipe a few days ago and casually told his father about it.

"Okay!" Song Tan also felt that this thing was dispensable, but if he planted it again next year, he couldn't occupy the room in the factory and renovate it, right?

She smiled and said, "Xiao Yang, you are so helpful now! Don't worry, when you go to summer camp, Qiao Qiao will make you the most envied kid in the entire camp!"

Here we go! Hmph, I'll try again tonight! I don't believe I can't figure it out during the day!
