Xiaoyao Xiaojunhou

Chapter 51 Purple Clay Pot

In a blink of an eye, three days passed.

In the past three days, Zhu Xiuyuan has never gone out and has been staying at home.

Naturally, Dong Shuzhen never went out to play.

She still made appointments to fight with Yan Dashan every day, saying that she was "exercising" her kung fu, but later on, she just used Yan Dashan to vent her anger.

Because she was bored in the mansion for three days, didn't go anywhere, and was in a bad mood...

When we get to the bottom of this matter, it turns out that it's all a matter of blame. If he hadn't suddenly jumped out and "kidnapped" her husband, how could he be as "trapped" as he is today?
So Dong Shuzhen took out her anger on him.

……

It wasn't until the fourth day that Zhu Xiuyuan took her out to Dong's Tea House.

When Zhu Xiuyuan stood in front of the tea house again, looking at the continuous stream of tea buyers coming in and out, he felt a little emotional.

Because everyone went in empty-handed and came out with big and small bags, with excited smiles on their faces...

I remember that the last time he came, except for people from the Dong family and shop assistants, there was not a single customer.

Only the fluttering fallen leaves wash down, it is very desolate and deserted.

But things are very different now!

"Wow, it's so lively!"

Dong Shuzhen became happy and couldn't help but jump twice. If Zhu Xiuyuan hadn't pulled her, she would have run over to join in the fun.

"Second young lady, uncle, the eldest lady has ordered the servants to wait for you two here. Please come in!"

Haruyuki greeted him with a smile.

So Zhu Xiuyuan followed Chun Xue into the tea house.

They first went to a tea house where tea leaves are roasted...

I saw that the whole teahouse was full of enthusiasm and energy. Basket after basket of fresh tea leaves were brought in. After being fried by the tea roasting master, it soon became roasted tea...

The whole process is very fast, several times faster than steaming tea, but even so, the demand for fried tea still exceeds supply...

This is not speculating on tea, but speculating on money!
"Uncle, the second young lady..."

"Uncle, Second Young Lady..." The masters in the tea house stopped their work one after another and greeted them warmly, with simple smiling faces.

Zhu Xiuyuan and Dong Shuzhen kept responding.

The fried tea created by Zhu Xiuyuan not only brought Dong's tea house back to life, but also gave the masters in the tea house new jobs.

The guys admired Zhu Xiuyuan from the bottom of their hearts.

……

After visiting the teahouse, they went to the back hall of the teahouse, which was Dong Shuyu's daily "office".

"The business of the tea house is getting better and better. In fact, a few days ago, I have discovered that a large part of the customers come from surrounding prefectures and counties."

"Such as Ezhou, Raozhou, Xuanzhou, etc. But I am very confused, how do the guests from these prefectures and counties... know that we are selling new tea?"

Dong Shuyu said slowly.

"I think it was passed down by word of mouth from the guests!" Zhu Xiuyuan didn't think much about it. A term that belonged to future generations came to his mind: "tap water"!
"Probably...the same is true." Dong Shuyu nodded slowly, "However, the number of customers looking for new tea sets is decreasing."

"The tea set business will not last long!" Zhu Xiuyuan affirmed: "Because it is very easy to be copied. I think it will not be long before tea sets, tea cups, tea cups and other tea sets will be all over the streets in Jiangzhou... "

"Ah, what should we do?" Dong Shuzhen waited beside her for a long time and finally added a word.

"It's true that I'm obsessed with this tea set business... Xiu Yuan has indeed said long ago that it won't last long... Anyway, if we give up the tea set business, the income from tea alone will be very gratifying." Dong Shuyu said.

Zhu Xiuyuan's expression suddenly changed, and then he smiled and said: "We can continue to make tea sets, but we can no longer make ordinary porcelain tea sets. We can make more advanced ones!"

"Oh, what is that?" Dong Shuyu's eyes lit up.

"Husband, husband, what's more advanced?" Dong Shuzhen added another sentence, her big eyes were very bright, and she felt like she was involved.

"My father... once collected a strange book, but I forgot the name. I only remember one record in it."

Zhu Xiuyuan touched Dong Shuzhen's head and began to make up random things.

"It is said that there are two mountains in Yixing County, Changzhou, on the west bank of Taihu Lake, called 'Huanglong Mountain' and 'Qinglong Mountain'."

"There is a kind of mud in the mountains called 'purple sand mud', which is similar to the mud used to make porcelain."

"But the vessels made of purple sand clay are more beautiful than porcelain. And if it is often used to hold water for drinking, it will also be of great benefit to people... It is like jade and has a very high collection value!"
