In Lantian County, Li Yu accompanied Cheng Chusi and Cheng Chuliang and the others, and were tasting tea. Yes, this time it was the authentic tea, not the lamb oil and spicy soup.

A manager went to Chang'an City to do business and accidentally contacted a businessman from the south.

The merchant used a kind of green leaf to soak in water, saying that he had been suffering from stomachache since he was a child, so he could use earth to drink this recipe.

At the house where the company is in charge, a grandson has had a stomachache these days, so he asked for some to come back.

As a result, before he returned home, he came to the mansion to explain the matter to pass by, and Li Yu discovered it, which made Li Yu very happy.

After that, there is no need to drink clean water, and it is confiscated directly. The manager asked him to ride a horse and go back to Chang'an City to inquire about the details of the tea tree.

The in charge went to Chang'an again and discussed cooperation with the merchant. The mansion sent people to go back to his hometown with the merchants from the south.

One is to determine whether many tea trees that the merchant said were serious, and the other is to buy and sell a large number of tea seedlings.

After the manager came back and reported the story carefully, Li Yu let him go home. He brought the tea he had got again to the front yard and called two brothers from the Cheng family to taste the tea.

Cheng Chuliang entered the main hall in a daze, complaining and said reluctantly;

"I said Li Dalang, I'm taking a nap, why do you ask me to get up?

If you have something, you can't sleep well. It's true, don't you know that disturbing people's dreams is a serious sin."

Li Yu said with a lewd smile when Cheng Chuliang farted and didn't care.

"Second brother, don't be so worried. When can't sleep?

Sit down, sit down first, and then say, brother, you sit down too, I have done a big deal today.”

When Cheng Chusi heard that he had done another big deal, his eyes lit up immediately;

"Brother, I'm going to make a big fight again. The transaction of liquor has not been secured yet. Why is there another big deal?"

"Brother, don't be impatient, let's eat the tea I cook first, let's talk about it in detail."

Li Yu had prepared the hot water for a long time. It just boiled too hot. After leaving it for a while, it was ready.

I simply rinsed out three small bowls, but I had no choice but to use the bowl.

This Tang Dynasty tea was cooked with multiple ingredients and added mutton oil. For those rich and wealthy families, they also added mutton to entertain guests.

That kind of tea can fill your stomach and eat it as a meal, so it is called eating tea.

The one used to serve tea is also a large ceramic bowl. If you want a small cup of tea that is exquisite in the future, you really can't find it, so Li Yu can only make do with it.

Cheng Chuliang looked at Li Yu, reluctant to put in the bowl of tea, staring blankly, and couldn't help but ask;

"Li Dalang, don't say that you call Brother Wei here, are you the ones who eat tea like you?"

Li Yu was so happy that he couldn't stop talking and said with a smile;

"That's right, I specially invited two brothers to come over, just to invite them to taste it,

How is the method of this new tea different from what you used to eat?"

Cheng Chusi looked at the tea leaves in the bowl, and did not speak. He observed silently, and even sniffed it from time to time.

Cheng Chuliang couldn't fool him easily, and his tone of speaking was a little unhappy;

"I said Li Da, I have done tea many times, but I haven't eaten ten thousand times, and there have been one thousand times.

But I have never heard of this method of cooking, without adding green onions, ginger, garlic, or wheat flour.

Just be stingy and forget it if you don’t add mutton, at least add some mutton oil?

You will never be so poor in your house, you can’t even afford sheep oil?

This is not a way to treat guests. Fortunately, we are our own brothers and will not go out to sell you.

If someone else came, you would soak some in clean water and entertain the guests. If it was spread, wouldn’t it ruin your name first?

Less gossip, because you woke me up, I was so hungry that I was serious. I asked a pot of tea in the kitchen to fill my stomach.”

Li Yu didn't argue, but instead thought that making a pot of Tang Dynasty tea and comparing it would be a good choice.

Li Yu raised his head and ordered the servant who was serving in the main hall;

"Go, let's talk about the kitchen and cook a pot of tea. I'd like to call my brothers, let's put it on, let's put it on, let's put it on, let's talk about the serious business."

“Yes, the head of the family.”

The servant agreed and turned around and left.

Li Yu mysteriously came to Cheng Cheng Chuliang and said;

"Second brother, this is my explanation. It's your turn to try this new tea. Is it good to eat a few bites, and then comment on it, how?"

Seeing that his elder brother had eaten several bites, he picked up the bowl and complained sarcastically when he was about to drink it;

"Well, I'll try your Li Dalangjun's craftsmanship today, and see how this new method is different.

Anyway, it has not been poisoned. It’s delicious or not, just close your eyes.”

Li Yu replied with a smile;

"Eat yours, where does a lot of nonsense come from? Today is poison. Brother, you have to taste it, too."

Cheng Chuliang took a sip helplessly and smashed his mouth twice, feeling indescribable;

"Li Da, why does your tea taste strange, astringent, fragrant, and a little bitter,

Sure enough, it’s very different from what I do on weekdays. I will eat this bowl and then discuss it with you.”

Seeing that Cheng Chusi was about to drink it all, Li Yu quickly stopped him;

"Hey, hey, hey, brother, slow down. This new tea is not the way you eat it. You need to smell it first and then taste it carefully.

If you swallow it in a few bites, it will lose the smell it should have.”

Cheng Chuliang was a little disdainful;

"Okay, I'm afraid of you, so I'll follow what you said. You won't be fooled after eating later. Don't bother me, and you'll have to go back and continue sleeping."

"Brother, don't worry, when you finish eating, you will go wherever you want to go, but you can finish this bowl with ten bites."

Cheng Chusi next to him kept silent. He slowly finished a small bowl and added some hot water to his own hands, sucking and drinking so beautifully.

The more Cheng Chuliang drank, the more he felt something was wrong, but what was wrong was wrong. After eating a bowl, he still couldn't tell me why, so he could only add one bowl.

After sucking a few more sips, Cheng Chuliang finally couldn't help but speak;

"Brother, you do have several tricks in this tea. I didn't think there was anything wrong with it after eating a bowl of tea. Instead, I wanted to taste another bowl.

It is completely different from what we usually do, but I can't explain it clearly. It's really weird."

Cheng Chuliang shook his head depressedly and started drinking again.

Just now, he went out of the kitchen to notify the servant who was cooking tea, and brought two maids and a pot of authentic Tang Dynasty mutton oil and spicy soup into the main hall.

Before the people arrived, the pungent smell of sheep was filled with the whole hall.

Li Yu ignored Cheng Chuliang and directly ordered the two maids;

"Hurry up, give the two brothers a big bowl, especially the second brother, who is just hungry, and you can go to bed after eating two bowls."

"promise."

The two maids agreed obediently, then quickly served two bowls and placed them in front of the Cheng brothers. Then they stepped down and stood there.

Cheng Chuliang has eaten this mutton oil and spicy soup for countless times, and has never been like today.

I actually felt an indescribable disgust, and I felt that the tea fragrance on weekdays had turned into a pungent discomfort.

"Second brother, why not eat two bites of mutton oil tea? After tasting my tea, how can I identify it twice?"

Cheng Chuliang didn't say anything, just nodded, picked up the mutton oil and spicy soup, and started eating it. In less than a few bites, he put down the bowls and chopsticks.

He picked up the tea made by Li Yu, gulped a few times, and then sighed.

"I'm choking to death. Why do the tea cooked in your mansion taste so harshly? It's very different from what I do?"

This time it was Li Yu's turn to be sarcastic, and Li Yu looked disdainful;

"Brother said this, but I'm wronged. Please read it clearly before you say it.

This tea was cooked according to your requirements. You see, not only does it contain mutton oil, but also a lot of mutton, with green onion, ginger and garlic.

I can’t say that I’m stingy anymore. Besides, what is the ability of the chef in my mansion? My brother still doesn’t know?

At least, you are here with me, and you have eaten seven or eight times. Can the chefs in my house not even cook tea?

Not to mention this tea, just talk about the past, if you think there is a meal that is not good, even if you say it, I will immediately drive the current chef out of the mansion and never use it again."

Cheng Chuliang was so depressed that he could not tell the reason even though he was stuttering. He could only make do with a few words;

"Is this? Brother Wei really can't tell lies with his eyes open. The chef in your mansion is the most powerful in our Tang Dynasty.

Every time I eat it, the corners of my mouth are so oily, which is so satisfying. The food they make is also delicious.

It’s true that they can’t be wronged, but why do I think the tea I cooked today is quite strange?”

Cheng Chusi finally spoke this time;

"You have just eaten Dalang's tea, and when it is fragrant and delicious, you will taste the pungent and rich things,

In comparison, one in the south and one in the north are very different. How can it not be blamed for changing from the extreme Yin to the extreme Yang?"

Cheng Chuliang scratched the back of his head, feeling a little embarrassed;

What my brother said is indeed a bit of truth, but isn’t it? These two types of tea are completely opposite, one is muddy and the other is pure. It’s really funny to eat a bite here and taste some on the other side.

But even if there are two types, I don’t eat them at the same time, why do I still think that Li Dalang’s tea is actually more delicious.

He was obviously made of clean water, and he also used some tea leaves, not high-quality old leaves or large leaves, and he had never seen the variety.

Such an inconspicuous cooking method can actually make such a fragrant and delicious way. It's really weird, it's weird!"

Cheng Chusi knew his brother's temperament. If he didn't understand it, he might not have a good sleep tonight.

So he said to Li Yu;
Chapter completed!
