Golden Week is here.
Su Zelin had a lot to do during these seven days of vacation.
The holiday starts on the evening of the 29th, and during the day on the 30th I have to go with the League Secretary Shen Donghua and Luo Xi to make a blackboard newspaper to promote the National Day.
This is the task assigned by the Youth League Committee to each class in the second year. Hunzi has excellent handwriting, so he can't shirk the task this time.
There was a National Day themed class meeting in the evening, organized by Luo Xi and cultural and entertainment committee member Guo Ting.
However, as the class monitor, Su Zelin could not avoid speaking at class meetings.
On the night of National Day, I had to attend the department's welcome party.
Su Zelin still went on stage to perform the song "Love Is Not a Choice" again.
The youth storm of "Pop Garden" has not yet blown away, this one is very good, there is no need to change to others.
Even though it was his second performance, it still caused quite a stir in the department, especially among the freshmen who had never seen a performance by Hunzi, they were as excited as they were during the May 4th performance.
After October 1st, I can finally breathe a sigh of relief, but there is still a very important task on October 2nd.
Dai Chuangxing helped to make an appointment with his old classmate, Zhou Fuliang, President of Zhejiang University.
This meeting is extremely important to his future network of contacts and the development of his digital store, so Su Zelin naturally attaches great importance to it.
…
Zhiweiguan, on par with Louwailou, is a century-old famous restaurant founded in 1913 and one of the most renowned restaurants in Lin'an. It is known as "stop your car when you know the taste and dismount when you smell the fragrance".
It is adjacent to the prosperous commercial street Yan'an Road in the east and the beautiful West Lake in the west. Its geographical location is unique.
There is an antique-style elegant seat in Zhiwei Temple, with the aroma of tea rising slowly and filling the room.
The boy who made Kung Fu tea was only about seventeen or eighteen years old, but he had already mastered it to perfection.
While Zhou Fuliang was chatting casually with his old classmate Dai Chuangxing, he was also secretly observing Su Zelin.
When Zhou Fuliang first met the boss behind New Century, he was quite surprised.
Can you believe that the founder of such a dynamic and creative digital store is actually a young kid
What's more, when the Zhejiang University branch just opened, there were many different designs on the giveaway fans, some were playful, some were literary, and contained allusions to ways of dealing with the world and the philosophy of life, which didn't seem like something a kid of his age and experience could come up with.
However, although he was surprised, Zhou Fuliang remained calm.
After just a moment of entering the door, he already had a preliminary impression of Su Zelin.
He does not have the youthful recklessness of his peers. On the contrary, he has a sense of sophistication, maturity, and calmness that comes from years of experience.
When faced with a person like me, any young person who knows my identity might feel a little uneasy and restrained.
However, he was able to remain calm and composed.
It's not a disguise.
When brewing Gongfu tea, his hands were as steady as a rock, and every movement was as smooth as flowing water, graceful and unrestrained. Not only did he demonstrate his skilled Gongfu tea-making skills, but he also reflected his inner calmness.
There are not many young people who like to drink tea, and even fewer who understand the tea ceremony. This is the first time Zhou Fuliang has seen someone who can brew tea so well.
Zhou Fuliang also likes the tea ceremony.
Tea ceremony masters are generally people with extremely high cultivation and very good psychological qualities.
This quickly made him interested in Su Zelin.
To appreciate the charm of Kung Fu tea, there are many details to pay attention to.
Let’s talk about tea sets. It is appropriate to choose covered bowls, purple clay teapots, and match them with scented cups and tea tasting cups.
Of course, tea can be good or bad.
In addition, first-hand punching is also very important.
Otherwise, even if the tea is of the best quality, it would be a waste of resources.
Su Zelin is obviously an expert in this.
For example, he chose to boil the water twice for making tea.
What is the second boiling
"Tea Theory" says: "Tea soup is the life of tea. When you see it boiling like fish eyes and making a slight sound, it is the first boiling. When it surges like pearls on the edge of the pot, it is the second boiling. When it surges like waves, it is the third boiling. The first boiling is too young, it is called the baby boiling. The third boiling is too old, it is called the longevity soup. When it is like pearls floating on the water and makes a sound like pine waves, it is the second boiling, which is just right."
The general meaning of this passage is that water that is slightly boiled, or the first boil, is too tender and the heat is not good, making it difficult to bring out the tea flavor; while water that is boiled for too long, or the third boil, is too old and the oxygen and carbon dioxide in the water are consumed, making the brewed tea not fresh enough.
The second boiling point is between the two, with the perfect boiling time. The water at this time is most suitable for making tea.
In addition, the soup should come out in about fifteen seconds of the first brew. It is not good to be too fast or too slow. It has to be just right.
There are many details like this, and those little kids who just want to have a drink for the sake of novelty will not understand them.
Based on his tea ceremony skills, Zhou Fuliang found that this young man could not be compared with an ordinary young man.
The two old classmates chatted for a while and then the tea was ready.
Su Zelin took out three washed tea cups and poured the tea into them one after another. During the process, no foam should be stirred up, no noise should be too loud, and the tea should not splash out of the cup. Even the slightest tremor of the hands is not allowed.
The tea soup rotates and is poured three times.
In the tea ceremony, this move is called Guan Gong Patrolling the City, and it is also very particular.
"Dean Zhou, please have some tea!"
Su Zelin brought a cup of tea to the president of Zhejiang University.
Zhou Fuliang nodded slightly and took the cup. He saw that the tea soup was golden, uniform in color and oily in texture. He took the tea and took a sip.
It has a rich aroma and mellow taste. After entering the throat, it lingers on for a long time, with a strong aftertaste and a refreshing aftertaste.
"good!"
Zhou Fuliang couldn't help but exclaim in admiration.
There are three wonders of tea: one is its color, two is its fragrance, and three is its taste.
This cup of tea has it all.
Dai Chuangxing couldn't help but smile.
Although his old classmate wanted to meet Su Zelin, he just wanted to get to know him briefly. Whether he could perform well in front of Zhou Fuliang depended on his own ability.
This guy is really good at socializing. Before meeting Zhou Fuliang, he asked himself some questions about the preferences of the president of Zhejiang University. He learned that Zhou Fuliang particularly liked the tea ceremony, so he made a breakthrough in this aspect, and the effect was immediate.
"Xiao Su, you really make great tea. Nowadays, there are not many young people who like to drink tea and understand tea!"
There was appreciation in Zhou Fuliang's tone.
"President Zhou, you are overpraising me. Drinking tea can detoxify, improve beauty, delay aging, and also fight bacteria and inflammation, and enhance the body's immunity. Drinking it occasionally is very good for the body."
Su Zelin smiled slightly and said calmly.
"Not only that, the tea ceremony is also a way of life. This small cup of tea can sometimes make people realize many truths, such as 'tea is always poured 70% full, leaving 30% is a human touch'"
Zhou Fuliang clapped his hands and agreed: "Yes, drinking tea is good for the body. It can help us cultivate our character, cultivate our sentiments, and experience life!"
At this point, he half-jokingly said to Dai Chuangxing: "Old Dai, I told you to learn more about drinking tea a long time ago. Even Xiao Su understands these principles better than you!"
Dai Chuangxing laughed: "Okay, you guys chat about your tea classics, don't drag me into this. I don't have too many requirements for drinking tea, and I don't have as many requirements as you do!"
Zhou Fuliang sighed and shook his head: "Xiao Su, look, Lao Dai is just a stubborn old man, I really can't do anything with him!"
A few people were chatting while the waiter served the food.
Dragon and Phoenix, Shredded Fish with Crab Roe, Longjing Shrimp, West Lake Water Shield Soup…
There were only three of us, so we didn't order much, just three meat dishes, one vegetable dish, one soup, and two snacks.
The two old people and one young chatted while enjoying the food. They ate and drank tea the whole time, only talking about the ups and downs but not business.
Later Zhou Fuliang got to know Su Zelin better.
No matter what the topic, astronomy and geography, politics and military, academics and sports, or even education, this young man can always strike up a conversation and express his unique insights.
This went on until the meal was over and Dai Chuangxing went to pay the bill.
Su Zelin did not compete with Vice President Dai. It would be inappropriate for him to pay for the meal himself.
Moreover, Dai Chuangxing did not call the waiter, but went to the counter to pay the bill himself, which in fact left space for himself and Zhou Fuliang to talk.
There are some things that are inconvenient to say even if old classmates are present.
Dai Chuangxing could only provide Su Zelin with the opportunity to meet Zhou Fuliang. As for whether he would have the chance to meet the president of Zhejiang University, that depended on luck.
Even if Dai Chuangxing would deliberately delay paying the bill, time was still limited, so Su Zelin didn't hesitate.
“President Zhou, our New Century Zhejiang University branch was able to open smoothly and achieve good results. We have to thank President Zhou and Zhejiang University for their strong support!”
Su Zelin got to the point.
"Hey, Xiao Su, I didn't help you, but the store building plan you proposed is good. It can not only generate income for Zhejiang University, but also help many poor students. So, as the dean, of course I have to express my support on behalf of Zhejiang University!"
He seems to be shirking credit, but in fact he is cautious in his words and actions.
What I mean is that I, Zhou Fuliang, am not helping you just because we are old classmates, but for the good of Zhejiang University.
Su Zelin knew that these people were very cautious and would not easily admit anything outside the rules and regulations, so when he first thanked Zhou Fuliang, he mentioned Zhejiang University.
To communicate with them, you must master the art of speaking.
At this level, everyone is speaking in code, yet everyone can understand each other.
If it were someone of a lower level, they would probably be confused and not understand what it meant.
"President Zhou is right. Our New Century Second Branch is based in Zhejiang University, and our business comes from Zhejiang University. We also hope to give back to Zhejiang University!"
Su Zelin paused for a moment and said, "Therefore, I plan to allocate a portion of the profits from the Zhejiang University branch to give back to Zhejiang University for its support and kindness. I hope to make a small contribution to the campus construction and education of this century-old prestigious university."
The intention of this sentence is very clear. It is the same as the last time when Su Zelin supported the development of the Finance College BBS and stuffed an envelope into Li Yanru’s hand.
As for how the money is spent, Su Zelin has no say. Anyway, I nominally support the campus BBS for legitimate reasons.
Zhou Fuliang narrowed his eyes and said, "Xiao Su, you have this heart. I have to thank you on behalf of Zhejiang University!"
"President Zhou, you are too kind. This is what we should do!"
Su Zelin quickly became modest.
The other party's attitude was still unclear, but the gangster didn't dare to ask more.
He has said everything that needs to be said.
Not long after, Dai Chuangxing came back after paying the bill.
After having a good meal and a few drinks, it was time to leave.
He stopped a taxi at the door. Before getting in, Zhou Fuliang suddenly thought of something: "Xiao Su, your tea ceremony skills are pretty good. Next time if you're free, let's find a place to have a couple of drinks. Let Lao Dai give you my number!"
Su Zelin couldn't help but be overjoyed.
Zhou Fuliang's connection has been established.
…
After having dinner with Zhou Fuliang, Su Zelin returned to school.
There was nothing to do in the evening, so I went to Legend with Zeng Kaiping to fight my brothers.
After playing for a while, Cai Wensheng came back.
The youngest walked into the dormitory without saying a word, with red eyes.
As the head of the department, Feng Zhongliang quickly noticed his abnormality and asked with concern as an elder brother: "Wensheng, what's wrong with you? Are you okay?"
"fine!"
Having said that, the young man was obviously in a bad mood. He sat down on the edge of the bed, looking angrily.
Hu Xu also said: "Sixth Brother, if something really happened, you can tell us. We are all brothers. Let's see if we can help!"
Cai Wensheng said nothing.
Hou Yongjin glanced at Cai Wensheng and guessed something: "Did you have a fight with Popcorn?"
"Um!"
Cai Wensheng finally nodded.
Zeng Kaiping, who had just killed a fawn and was digging for meat, became interested when he heard this.
Cai Wensheng and Popcorn are usually very sweet, but they rarely get angry.
He asked curiously, "Ah Sheng, what did you two quarrel about? Tell me and I'll give you my opinion!"
“That’s right!”
Cai Wensheng said angrily: "Today, Popcorn and I went to dinner. We ordered a bowl of Sichuan peppercorns, and I wanted to put chopped green onions in it, but Popcorn didn't want to."
Pianerchuan is a classic noodle dish in Lin'an with a history of over a hundred years. No one knows how it originated, but it has existed since the end of the Qing Dynasty. The most famous restaurant is Kuiyuanguan.
It is said that many examinations were held in Lin'an at that time, and the owner used broccoli, bamboo shoots and meat slices to make this popular noodle to cater to the candidates from all over the country, and added three eggs to the noodles, which meant "three consecutive top honors".
The last time Su Zelin, Qin Shiqing and others went to visit West Lake, they had this kind of Pianerchuan for lunch. It can also be found everywhere in the canteen of the Finance Institute and private restaurants.
"So?"
Zeng Kaiping asked.
"Then we each insisted on our own opinions and neither of us gave in, so we started arguing. Usually I give her more, so why didn't she give me more this time?"
Cai Wensheng expressed that he felt very aggrieved.
"So, you guys are arguing over whether or not to put chopped green onions in a bowl of Pian Er Chuan?"
The muscles on the young man's face twitched and he had the urge to hit someone.
"Well, neither of us wanted to give in to the other, and in the end we didn't even eat the bowl of Pian Er Chuan, and went back to the dormitory. Fourth brother, do you think the popcorn was too much?"
Cai Wensheng angrily told the whole story.
"Yes, yes, you are right!"
Zeng Kaiping said in his heart, if I care about you and popcorn, I'm a dog!
Return your attention to the screen and continue looking for the deer.
Others couldn't help but shake their heads.
The youngest students in dormitories 302 and 501 are like children. They are too immature to be in love. They actually quarrel over such trivial matters.
"Sixth Brother, can't you guys order an extra bowl of Pian'erchuan? Then whoever wants to put it in can do whatever they want."
Hu Xu couldn't help but speak out.
"We just had milk tea, so we're not hungry. Besides, both Popcorn and I don't eat much, so we didn't plan to waste it. This isn't about the money, it's mainly about Popcorn's attitude. I think I usually give in to her, so it's time for her to give in to me this time!"
Cai Wensheng has very good reasons.
"Okay, I didn't say that!"
Hu Xu shrugged.
Su Zelin didn't even bother to persuade him.
Cai Wensheng and Popcorn are so childish, just like they are playing house.
They can quarrel today and make up tomorrow, so there's nothing to worry about.
“Ding ding ding…”
A short message came on QQ. Su Zelin switched out of the game and found that Qin Shiqing's avatar was jumping.
The idiot opened the dialog box casually.
Qingtian: "Zelin, are you done with your work? There are still a few days left in the Golden Week holiday. Are you free tomorrow? [wink]"
From her tone, Su Zelin smelled a hint of conspiracy.
Very handsome at the age of one: "Qin Shiqing, what are you doing [picking your nose]"
Sunny day: "The weather is getting colder, I plan to go shopping with Xiaoyanzi [covering mouth]"
When Su Zelin heard the word "shopping", his scalp went numb.
I don’t know why, but women like to go shopping when they have nothing to do after eating.
They have many reasons to go shopping.
For example, "The world is so big, I want to go out and show it to people." This kind of thing is usually said by people who are good-looking and have good figures. They just want to enjoy the admiring gazes of the opposite sex and the jealous eyes of the same sex. They may not buy anything after going out for a day.
Others are like this: "Last year's clothes don't match my temperament this year, so I'm going shopping!" This type of person always has one piece missing in his or her wardrobe, and they just want to buy, buy, buy.
Some people don't need a reason at all. They feel uncomfortable if they don't go shopping for a few days, and they wish they could go shopping every day.
It’s okay if you just like shopping, but what’s even more amazing is that you can always shop all day long.
Men go shopping: they shop for whatever they need and go back home after buying.
Women go shopping: they find that they lack whatever they shop for. The more they shop, the more they feel they need to buy. So it is not surprising that they shop from morning till night.
This seems to be girls' nature, and even Qin Shiqing is no exception.
One time during the summer vacation, a few of us made an appointment to go out and play. My childhood sweetheart and Xiaoyanzi ran around happily all day long, while I and two good male friends followed behind.
Even people with such good physiques felt tired, but Qin Shiqing and Xiao Yanzi were fine. They were even not satisfied and made plans to continue the next day, but were decisively rejected by Su Zelin.
He typed away.
One year old is handsome: "Great idea, have fun!"
Sunny day: "Happy you, you have to accompany us to [knock head]"
One year old is handsome: "Why?"
Sunny day: "Because the weather is getting cooler, I want to buy autumn clothes!"
Very handsome at the age of one: "Qin Shiqing, you bought autumn clothes, but I didn't buy them. What does this have to do with me?"
Sunny: "I have to try on clothes and find someone to give me advice on whether they look good or not. What if I buy something I don't like [sticking out tongue]"
He was handsome at the age of one: "Qin Shiqing, don't worry, with your figure, you'll look good in a rag. Besides, can't you just ask Xiaoyanzi for advice?"
Sunny: "Xiaoyanzi, of course, needs to be evaluated, but a girl alone is not enough, I also need a boy. After all, boys have different aesthetics from girls. If both boys and girls think it looks good, then it will be a good idea to buy it [grin]"
It's just buying a piece of clothing, why is there so much hassle...
He was handsome at the age of one: "Isn't Haozi a boy?"
Qingtian: "Lu Haoran's aesthetics are not consistent with mine, you are better [covering mouth]"
Very handsome at the age of one: "You can just say that Haozi has low taste and I have high taste, but flattery is useless. I don't buy it. Besides, I'm very busy. Even on holidays, I can't relax my self-discipline. I have to study and hang out in the library every day to strive to be the successor of socialism."
Haha, even those who are competing to become the successors of socialism have been brought up
Boss Su, have you forgotten that you are a corrupt capitalist
Qin Shiqing naturally wouldn't believe it.
Sunny: “You really aren’t going?”
He was handsome at the age of one: "No, I won't go. I'm a real man. I won't go if I don't want to!"
Qingtian: "Okay, I see. Well, come to think of it, I haven't called mom for a long time."
He was handsome at the age of one: "Our mother?"
Su Zelin rubbed his eyes to make sure he was not mistaken.
Qin Shiqing has mentioned this word more than once.
It would be fine if I said I was hard of hearing before, but the chat record is clearly there.
Qingtian: "You are my oppa, so what's wrong with me calling you mom?"
That's true, but it always feels weird.
He was handsome at the age of one: "Why are you calling my mom?"
Qingtian: "Nothing, I just suddenly wanted to chat with my mom about family matters."
I don't believe you at all, you must want to complain to my mom!
My mother will probably call me soon and scold me to death, and I'm afraid she will nag me all day long when I get home.
This woman knows me too well and she has the upper hand over me!
Su Zelin was so angry that his teeth were itching.
Qin Shiqing, you are so cruel!
One-year-old is handsome: "I changed my mind, let's go shopping happily together."
Qingtian: "Don't we say that a real man should not go if he says he won't go? [covers his mouth]"
He was handsome at the age of one: "Yes, a real man, change your mind if you say so!"
Qingtian: "Look how wronged you sound. You have a beautiful woman to accompany you, and you can meet your good friends. It's such a good arrangement, what else can you be dissatisfied with? Besides, Xiaoyanzi and I don't plan to buy a lot, two pieces will be enough."
Very handsome at the age of one: "Haha, yes, you said the same thing during the last summer vacation. We went out at around 8 o'clock in the morning and came back at around 6 o'clock. We really only bought two pieces, one in the morning and one in the afternoon. I'm so drunk. Are you planning to participate in a beauty pageant or something? You won't be satisfied until you try on all the women's clothes in every store on every street, right?"
Qingtian: "That was just an accident. In a small place like Jianglan, there are very few clothing styles. Of course, you have to shop around. Lin'an is different. Maybe you can find the right one by just visiting a few shops. Anyway, you promised me, don't regret it. It's a happy decision~~"
After making an appointment with Su Zelin to meet tomorrow, Qin Shiqing ended the conversation.
The girl raised a sly smile at the corner of her mouth, like a little fox.
Humph, you stubborn guy, why didn’t you just agree earlier? Why did you force me to use my ultimate move and bring our mother out
…
