Chapter 273 - 273 Tryout
273 Tryout
Qiao Xuan was shocked. “So… valuable?”
Shao Yunduan was taken aback too. “We found them in the mountains. They smelled nice, so we brought some home for processing. But how could this be golden sprout?”
It wasn’t a very commonly-heard name either.
Qiao Xuan had some knowledge of other categories, like Longjing of West Lake, Biluochun of Dongting and others. But she had never heard of golden sprout!
Qiao Xuan’s eyes sparkled. She smiled. “Let me serve you another kind of tea!”
They knew what golden sprout was, then they might even have some idea of what this one was.
Therefore, when Yuezheng Xiao, Xie Jingrong and Shao Yunduan were talking about golden sprout, Qiao Xuan came with three other kinds of tea with a smile. She said, “Please, have some tea.”
Yuezheng Xiao and Xie Jingrong became quite curious.
Yuezheng Xiao had the teacup in his hands, smiling. “I don’t think there is any other tea that can be better than golden sprout, good tea leaves are very difficult to find.”
Yuezheng Xiao’s eyes widened, as he took a couple of sips. “Lavender, this is lavender tea! Brother Xie, do you agree with me?”
Xie Jingrong gazed at him and nodded. He was even more shocked, but he looked calmer.
“Yes, this is lavender. You are truly lucky…”
Xie Jingrong did not believe them first, but by this point, he had to believe that they were lucky.
Shao Yunduan smiled. “My brother Xiaoqi likes going into the mountains, and he is a good hunter. We wanted to get some mountain stuff, and happened to run into the tea leaves, accidentially.”
“Lavender, the tea leaves are first-class ones too?”
Yuezheng Xiao sipped some more and said with some obsession in his voice, “Of course, lavender is more expensive than golden sprout. Well-processed lavender can cost at least 100 liang half a kilo.”
Shao Yunduan. “…”
They almost ruined the treasure!
They processed the tea leaves from the iron pot in their kitchen.
Qiao Xuan sat down next to Shao Yunduan, smiled. “Young Master Yuezheng, are you interested in tea leaves business?”
Yuezheng Xiao’s eyes sparkled, as he turned to Qiao Xuan.
Qiao Xuan continued. “When we came home the other day from the mountains, we did not only get some tea leaves home. Since the leaves smelled so great, we also brought some buds with us. Those buds are all growing well. If you like it… what about…”
“Of course I want it!” Yuezheng Xiao nodded in agreement even before she finished her words.
“But the two kinds of tea leaves aren’t very easy to plant, if you want to do it, you need to make some efforts.”
Yuezheng Xiao reminded her in an implict way.
Good tea leaves could be hard to plant.
“It is fine, let’s try. If we make it, we all benefit from it. If not, then we can drop it. What do you think?”
Qiao Xuan had suspected that would happen. Easily-planted tea leaves could be seen everywhere!
These were expensive because they were rare.
Especially lavender, which cost 100 liang half a kilo… that was a lot of money.
Shao Yunduan smiled. “If you want to have a try, let’s do it!”
Yuezheng Xiao smiled. “Okay, it’s a deal!”
