Perhaps because of the restoration of the river course, new tea from the south has been gradually transported to the north of Dacheng.
This time, the tea that Mei Qiang and Mei Youqian drank in the tea shop was still ground tea, but it was different from the stale and bland taste of old tea last time. Mei Youqian tasted the new tea this time and found it had a very different taste.
"New tea, not the old tea that turned yellow and had a musty smell."
Listening to his father's whispered comments, Mayberry also took a few sips.
Although she didn't think anything was particularly good or bad about the drink, she knew that the tea this time was indeed refreshing and soothing.
This made Mei Berry, who had just eaten half a roast chicken alone, feel extremely satisfied.
As the sun reaches its peak at noon, there are fewer and fewer pedestrians on the scorching road, and more people choose to come in and drink a bowl of tea before leaving.
Cheap and thirst-quenching, these are the reasons why this small tea shop is booming;
Moreover, the boss has a very good character and does not care how long people come in to drink a pot of tea. There are many businessmen passing by here to avoid the scorching sun for several hours;
However, most customers just sit in the store for a short while, and most people are busy with their daily lives.
After a bowl of tea and a few words, I got up and rushed to my next destination.
In addition to observing the customers in the store, Meiberry also saw a well surrounding the back kitchen of the teahouse.
This also surprised Mayberry.
Therefore, there is an endless stream of customers coming and going here, and the teahouse owner is not short of manpower and needs to constantly waste time fetching water from elsewhere.
Even when the weather is hot, a bucket of hot tea will quickly cool down when thrown into the well, providing guests with a better drinking experience.
The right time, the right place, the right people, and this boss had it all.
Meiberry suddenly felt that their original idea of selling drinks was a bit too impulsive.
"Boss, when will your mung bean soup start serving? It's getting hotter and hotter today."
While Mei Mei was deep in thought, several more sweaty customers came in from the teahouse.
The group of people said these words to the tea shop owner as soon as they came in. They seemed to be very familiar with the tea shop owner.
"It's May, and there are still some days left. But I just made a big pot of herbal tea with well water. Do you want a few bowls?"
The owner of the tea shop was an old man who was nearly sixty years old. He suggested in a kind tone, and the few guests nodded and agreed to the boss's suggestion.
Afterwards, the boss nodded and smiled, then turned around and asked his old lady to help pour tea.
Such a typical husband and wife business makes Mei Youqian look quite envious.
Meiberry glanced at her father and saw his behavior and said nothing.
"Where have you guys gone to make a fortune recently? The last time you came here to have tea was more than ten days ago."
The boss brought the tea to them and started chatting with them as if they were friends.
"Oh, it's nothing. It's just that I took a boat to Fucheng a few days ago as soon as the river was opened. As soon as I got off the boat, didn't I just want your herbal tea, boss, so I hurried over! Oh, the road is not long, but too hot!"
The guest continued to say that Fucheng had wiped his forehead violently before, and blamed him for saying that the weather is extremely hot this year, and it is not even May yet.
After drinking all the tea in one gulp, the man asked the boss to serve another pot, along with two plates of tea fruits.
As soon as Mei Bei and the others heard someone talking about Fucheng, which was the first time she heard it, they immediately pricked up their ears and listened attentively.
The man continued: "Isn't it just a coincidence that I came to Fucheng this time? I went to join in the fun."
"Joining in the fun? What fun is there to join in on?"
The other guests in the tea shop were also very curious and looked at him one after another. The guest felt so much attention and felt very proud for a moment, so he said: "Weren't there some water bandits on our river some time ago? "
"Ah, yes. Wasn't the water bandit caught?"
Everyone has an impression of these things.
"Although those water bandits are from Xianyao Prefecture, their crimes came directly to our territory in Yun Prefecture.
After being caught this time, our Yunzhou magistrate did not send these people back to Xianyao. After they were caught, they were sentenced to execution in our city! I just arrived that day and caught up with this crazy excitement! "
"Ah, is it so fast? Just behead if you say behead?"
"Who says it's not the case? At this speed, I always feel like it's only been a few days since I caught someone, so..."
Others were confused after hearing this. If this person hadn't brought the news back today, who would have known that this matter would be handled so quickly?
"Oh, many people in Fucheng came to see it at that time, but I didn't get in front yet. But later I heard from them that those people said they were wronged before they died!"
"What's so unfair about this? How can the corpses in Jinlanjiang be fake? Are they fake identities or are they water bandits?"
Some people were angry and talked about the bad things done by the water bandits. Mayberry glanced sideways and saw that the man was dressed like a small businessman.
The guest who first talked about going to Fucheng shook his head and sighed, and said: "But, I heard, wasn't most of Xianyao Prefecture hit by a snowstorm at the end of last year?
Just because disaster relief supplies cannot be transported in time, many people there will not be able to survive at the beginning of spring this year, so they become water bandits. "
"There are a lot of people who can't survive, but they're not as vicious as they are, right?"
Some guests expressed sympathy after hearing this, but they should still be afraid. They always felt that killing people and dumping their bodies like this was a loss of humanity.
"Alas~ These days are difficult..."
The tea shop owner also sighed, and the guests who were drinking tea and taking a break shook their heads and sighed. For a while, the atmosphere in the tea house became a lot lower...
Mei Mei and Mei Youqian, who listened to a lot of gossip in the tea shop, didn't return home until the sun was about to set.
As soon as they returned home, the father and daughter were like reincarnations of starving ghosts. After finishing the mung bean soup, egg pancakes and fried beans cooked by Wei Meili, they told Wei Meili all the news they heard in the town today. .
However, the father and daughter obviously did not let their mother make this mental preparation in advance. These news bombarded Wei Meili one after another and she couldn't recover.
The rice dumpling business was concluded, and the price more than doubled her estimate;
The business of the tea shop is very good, but if you want to "seize food from the tiger's mouth", you must find another way;
Her daughter and husband suddenly made 500 taels of silver.
The family became rich overnight.
"Wait, wait."
Wei Meili looked at her daughter sitting upright on the stool and her honest husband, and confirmed again and again: "500 taels?"
"Yeah!" The father and daughter nodded in unison.
"There are so many...then ginseng is so expensive?"
Wei Meili looked directly at her daughter and asked: "Did your system tell you the effects of this ginseng? Is it really that expensive and can you revive immediately after eating it?"
"Well...it's not as exaggerated as you said, mom, but it's really powerful."
After Mei Bei finished speaking, Wei Meili frowned her beautiful eyebrows and said quickly: "We are not allowed to sell any medicines sent to our family by the system! Do you hear that?"
"I heard it!" Meiberry Chicken nodded, and her mother continued in her ear: "How can such a good thing be sold just because you say it's for sale? You don't know the goods, but someone does!"
"Hmm, we will eat the rice dumplings delivered by the system at home from now on..." After Mei Li said this, she suddenly remembered and asked, "Will our family also make rice dumplings this time? But those are also delivered by the system."
Wei Meili: "..."
Her daughter knows how to draw inferences from one example.
