Chapter 731 My Rich Grandfather

“And here, these photos were taken in Mansong Village.

These photos are of the old airport in Xishuangbanna. My grandfather was a Hong Kong businessman and flew there directly from Kunming on a special plane approved by the state.

And these, everyone, look carefully, they are my grandfather’s order lists and invoices from those years. These are the original vouchers for purchasing Pu’er tea from various townships and villages, and they all have official seals on them.

Now everyone understands, right? The origin of these Pu'er teas is not mysterious. They were all purchased by my grandfather Lin Yongyuan in the 1960s and 1970s, and then preserved in a sealed manner, which is why they are well preserved.

As for what my grandfather did, he and my great-grandfather were both businessmen in Hong Kong, and they were from the same generation as Li Huanggua.

The old man had a good vision and bought a lot of antiques, tea, and jade, and then our descendants began to enjoy the benefits. "

Boom~~~The venue exploded again.

The people from the Yunnan Pu'er Tea Association were also getting anxious, and a group of them were chattering and humming.

At this time, many village heads of Pu'er tea-producing villages remained silent, because the photos taken by Lin Sanqi were indeed of their old villages.

Moreover, these old villages have been demolished long ago, so it would be impossible to fake them now.

What's more, the people in the photos all have names, and finding a few actors to impersonate them is a very stupid act and is also the easiest to be exposed.

Zhu Baorong from the Yunnan Pu'er Tea Association has been engaged in the Pu'er tea business for his entire life and has personally participated in the hype of Pu'er tea, so he knows the inside story best and raised questions on the spot:
"Impossible, absolutely impossible. Pu'er tea was a local tea in 1962 and had not even left Yunnan. How could merchants from Hong Kong go to Yunnan to purchase it? There is no relevant record in our province."

Pu'er tea did not begin to attract the attention of capital until the 1990s, and its price was not really driven up until after 2000.

Lin Sanqi was not in a hurry and asked:
"President Zhu, if I remember correctly, Pu'er tea was first hyped up by people from Hong Kong, right?"

"Correct."

"Then let me ask you, how did people in Hong Kong know about Pu'er tea? In your words, Pu'er tea is only drunk by people in Yunnan, so how did people in Hong Kong find Yunnan in the 1990s?"

"This……"

Chairman Zhu was speechless for a moment. Indeed, people from Hong Kong must have drunk Pu'er tea, which is why they would travel thousands of miles to this frontier province.

Lin Sanqi smiled pretentiously and added:
“It was because of my great grandfather that my grandfather and his family were the first to discover Yunnan Pu’er tea and personally went to Yunnan to purchase it and then brought it to Hong Kong that Pu’er tea became popular in the Hong Kong market.

After the reform and opening up, talents from Hong Kong followed my grandfather's footsteps and came to Yunnan, which marked the beginning of the vigorous history of Pu'er tea. So, you should thank our Lin family for the success of Pu'er tea today.

In the end, not only did you not thank our Lin family, but now you are turning the tables and accusing our Pu'er tea of ​​being fake. Don't you feel guilty? You people from the Pu'er Tea Association really don't know how to be grateful."

Wow~~~
All the tea merchants at the scene began to talk and pointed fingers at the Yunnan people.

Because what Lin Sanqi said is indeed a logical closed loop. The Lin family was the first to bring Pu'er to Hong Kong, and then attracted Hong Kong capital to enter Yunnan.

Now even Zhu Baorong, Wang Binggen, Liu Xiaode and other Yunnan people began to doubt their lives.

But everyone has overlooked a fundamental problem, that is, Pu'er tea appeared in small quantities in the Hong Kong market before liberation, but it has never been regarded as mainstream.

After all, after 49, the capital and landlords from Jiangsu and Zhejiang either fled to Taiwan or Hong Kong, and these wealthy people drank green tea such as Longjing, but not Pu'er tea.

So no one can explain clearly how Pu'er tea entered the Hong Kong market, how it was discovered by Hong Kong capital, and how it entered the mainland to start the tea speculation business.
This gave Lin Sanqi an opportunity to take advantage of. Since he had the pictures and the truth, he could take the credit for it on his grandfather who had passed away many years ago.

Wang Binggen, the vice president of Yunnan Pu'er Tea Association, is an old fox. He knows that he cannot follow Lin Sanqi's thinking and cannot be led by him. If this continues, not only will the other party's Pu'er tea be genuine, but the Lin family will become the first generation ancestor of Pu'er tea, which will shake the legitimacy of the Pu'er Tea Association.

Then Vice President Wang stood up and continued to question:

"Everyone, please be quiet. There are many young people here. Young people know that photos can be photoshopped nowadays. Who knows where these photos came from? I suspect that the photos are fake and they are all staged."

Lin Sanqi burst into laughter when he heard this. He had been prepared for this move, so he signaled to his secretary.

Several more documents appeared on the slide, and Lin Sanqi introduced them:
"All our photos have been authenticated by the Judicial Authentication Center, which has issued an authentication conclusion, which is this one. For the sake of rigor, we also asked a notary office to notarize it.

Please believe in the law. This Judicial Appraisal Center is not opened by our Lin family. They are the most authoritative and technical unit. Vice President Wang should believe it this time, right?
Of course, if you insist on doubting, I can understand that, so I can provide you with the original photos. You can find an institution or a technical expert to authenticate them, and if they are fake, you can expose them publicly. "

Now, the people from the Pu'er Tea Association all looked pale and blue.

Look at the hundreds of reporters at the scene, all of them taking pictures and recording, which will be released to the news media. It is obvious that Lingnan Hall would not be able to falsify information and be caught.

At this moment, the old Lin clan leader, who had been silent in the meeting, spoke up:

"My friends, I am Lin Peidong, and now I am the old patriarch of the Lin family. This, this, our Lin family's ancestral precepts, one of which comes from "The Analects of Confucius·Zilu": Be true to your words and fulfill your actions.

So we in the Lin family attach great importance to integrity.

Everyone present, including President Ni of the China Tea Association, President Liu of China Agricultural University, and everyone from the Pu'er Tea Association, should know whether these Pu'er teas are real or fake.

In addition, many younger generations don’t know about what happened in the 1960s, but we, the elders, know it clearly.

I can testify that my second brother and uncle had foresight back then and purchased a lot of domestic supplies. Some of these supplies became worthless decades later, but some became priceless.

Let me tell you another story. Back then, my second brother, Lin Sanqi's grandfather, Lin Yongyuan, bought up all the antiques in the Huadu Cultural Relics Store. Think about it, who had such vision and courage in the 1960s?
If you don’t believe it, you can go to the museum and see that the more than 30 national treasures newly exhibited in the Dongguan Provincial Museum all came from our Lin family, and they are a small part of the antiques my second brother bought back then.

So, although Pu'er tea is precious, it is always far inferior to the antiques of the past, right? There is nothing to doubt. Some people are born to be the protagonists. In the words of young people, they are the children of destiny. It is right that their descendants will become rich, right? "

As soon as Uncle Lin said this, everyone at the scene burst into laughter.

Yes, their ancestors had money and were willing to invest and collect, and finally they made a fortune. Isn’t this logical?
This is just like angel investors, they spend money widely and invest a lot, and in the end as long as one or two out of ten projects are successful, that would be thousands or tens of thousands of times the return on investment.

Grandpa Lin's words were agreed and resonated by everyone, and many people cheered him on.

Only the Lin family members were blushing, thinking that although grandpa said that honesty and trustworthiness were the foundation, everything he said was fabricated.

But for the sake of making money, it's not shameful.

However, Zhu Baorong, the president of the Pu'er Tea Association, was not giving up. He took a cake of Pu'er tea and continued to question:
"That's not right. Even if your Lin family ancestors had good vision and purchased a large amount of Pu'er tea, look, the age of this Pu'er tea is totally wrong. Although the packaging is indeed very old and traditional, the tea is not 50 years old."

If the aged tea reaches more than 50 years, the tea leaves will actually become very fragile and will break into powder if touched.

Moreover, the Pu'er tea cakes that have been handed down for more than 50 years are not in very complete condition. They are either worm-eaten, have traces of mold, or have chips.

It’s nothing like the Pu’er tea from Lingnan Hall, which is almost always complete and of the best quality, and you can even smell the fragrance of the tea.

In fact, this is indeed a bug, and it is normal for people to question it. In 1962, this happened many years ago. (End of this chapter)
