The weather is hot. The sun sets at seven o'clock, but the light is still very good. Dinner at home is basically at this time recently.
Just as the dishes were served, a taxi suddenly stopped at the door. Zhang Yanping quickly rushed out of the car: "Seventh cousin, what do you have to eat? Let me have a taste. I'm so hungry!"
Qiao Qiao was left behind, shouting, "Brother Yan Ping! Your suitcase!"
As he spoke, he followed into the house, pushing two boxes.
Only Xin Jun was calm and composed. He first paid the fare, then checked the luggage, and then calmly said goodbye to the driver.
When the master was leaving, he took a look at this big country villa and thought that this tea that costs 10,000 yuan per kilogram is really profitable! Look at how beautiful this villa is!
It was the people of the Song family who were shocked.
"Yan Ping, didn't you say you wanted to travel? That's why..." Wu Lan calculated - we left the afternoon before yesterday, went fishing at home last night, and today...
"It's only been two days, right? What did you do on your trip?"
Wu Lan thought about it for a while and said, "Are you embarrassed to spend Qiao Qiao's money? Qiao Qiao has been so sensible in the past six months. He invited you because of your brotherly love. Don't be shy! You traveled so far to Haicheng, taking both a plane and a high-speed train, and it's only two days... It's not even enough for a stroll on the beach."
According to her simple thinking, since she has spent such expensive travel expenses, she must make the most of visiting various local attractions.
Zhang Yanping was so bitter: "Don't mention it, the food outside is too bad. I didn't even have enough to eat today - what should I eat tonight?"
"What to eat?" Uncle Seven snorted coldly, "Three gluttons suddenly came back, you guys can eat whatever I cook - do you want some baked buns?"
The three guys are big eaters and can finish a whole rice cooker full of white rice. They came back suddenly, so naturally, we didn’t prepare enough for dinner tonight.
"Eat, eat, eat! Eat everything!" Zhang Yanping is not picky!
What's more, my seventh cousin is very good at cooking white eucalyptus, and his baked buns and kimchi soup are also a specialty!
but…
Xin Jun was stunned: "Zhang Yanping, didn't you tell your family that we would be back in the evening?"
Zhang Yanping asked back: "You didn't say that?"
Qiao Qiao pushed the suitcase in and shouted, "I didn't say that!"
have to!
It's true that among the seven-foot-tall and eight-foot-tall men, not a single one is reliable.
After rushing all the way, the three of them decided on dinner, and then they went back to the third floor to take a shower and change clothes. They didn't meet Professor Song and others until everyone gathered in the restaurant wearing shorts.
Little did they know that Professor Song had already discussed them.
Yanran is very careful. He watched the replay of Qiao Qiao's live broadcast when he had nothing to do these two nights. He watched it carefully at this moment and shared the gossip with everyone:
"Look at Song Qiao, he's so fair and handsome! In fact, he's really good at farm work and has a lot of strength! I saw him in a video carrying a bucket full of yellow mud with one hand, without any effort at all."
Tang Xiaodong and Qi Lin suddenly felt a sense of crisis: "The Song Tan family is not to be judged by appearance..."
In comparison, their senior brothers and sisters have lost the advantage of being able to work in the mountains and fields.
Tang Xiaodong also secretly muttered: "Especially that Zhang Yanping, he is so strong and dark, I wonder how energetic he is when working in the fields! I heard that he also manages the online store..."
There is also the slightly fair-skinned Xin Jun, who is said to be not only Qiao Qiao’s tutor, but also a part-time online shop owner.
Oh my god!
Everyone in this family is a good cook, what are they doing here? They are just eating for free!
A few people looked at each other and made a secret decision: We must achieve some results tonight!
…
Zhang Yanping was full and squatted in the corridor, chewing watermelon. He watched Song Sancheng pile up the undried tea leaves in the yard and pack them into bags. He couldn't help but wonder:
“Is this all the old tea leaves?”
Song Sancheng laughed: "This is just the beginning!"
There weren't many tea buds to be picked, but there were a lot of old leaves! The ones piled up in the yard were only one-fifth of the ones on the mountain.
Outside the yard, tea branches were piled up.
Zhang Yanping seemed to be thinking: "The temperature has been so high these days... It should be ready to sell in two days, right?"
"almost."
Uncle Seven also came over holding a watermelon in his hand. "We'll have to dry this pile for another day tomorrow. Tan Tan bought the gauze bag and the ziplock bag, and then we can sell it. How much do you plan to sell it for?"
Zhang Yanping laughed: "That depends on you, cousin! Is this sauce pack disposable, or will it become more fragrant as it cooks like the old sauce?"
Uncle Seven shook his head when he heard this: "The longer the stew is cooked, the more fragrant it becomes. The fire can't be turned off. We have to add ingredients every now and then."
"How could I not know about you young people nowadays? It's good enough that you can open fire."
"Isn't this marinade made mainly for the tea eggs? It only takes a day or two. If it's any longer, it won't work. It's not that it will go bad, but the taste will be bad."
"How much do the ingredients cost?" Zhang Yanping asked carefully.
Uncle Seven thought for a moment and said, "For selling outside, I'll make you something simple: star anise, bay leaf, and Sichuan peppercorns, and a small packet of salt and a small packet of rock sugar..."
"I'll give you the recipe, and you can buy the ingredients and do the math yourself."
Professor Song had just finished his meal and was cheered up when he heard this!
Looks like he could be useful!
At this moment, I quickly asked, "Do you need ingredients? I have a few agricultural science research bases that produce and sell their own products. The price is a bit expensive, but the quality is good. Do you want their contact information?"
This is true!
Not every agricultural science academy, big or small, can get sufficient funding, and because their sales channels are very... very...
It’s just hard to put it into words.
Therefore, many varieties have not yet been widely circulated, and are only grown in a few cooperative bases and a small number of businesses.
Similarly, sales channels are also very thin.
Professor Song asked this question out of selfish motives, but it also serves to affirm the quality.
He thinks that even though it is old tea, nothing from Song Tan's family is unpalatable so far, and it would be a waste to use ordinary ingredients.
Zhang Yanping was overjoyed!
This is Professor Song. He endorses the book and says it has good quality. So what are you waiting for
As for the price, it might be a bit expensive... So funny, they don’t plan to sell the sauce for the tea eggs cheaply!
Coincidentally, he also felt that such a good thing was wasted by using ordinary ingredients.
At this moment, he was in high spirits: "Professor Song, please—star anise, bay leaf, cinnamon, pepper, rock sugar... or something else, we all need it!"
Professor Song: …
Just...even though he is a well-known expert, he generally doesn't have many opportunities to recommend things to others, especially these.
The other party waited for him to contact without hesitation...
Oh my!
The old professor’s heart is quite warm!
At this moment, he also laughed happily: "Wait a moment, I'll call and ask."
After thinking about it, he still couldn't help but emphasize: "Don't worry, the quality is absolutely good. I'll ask someone to send samples, and if they're not good, we won't accept them."
