Gao Zhang confessed to Fu An, and when he turned around, he remembered to sweep up all the whale oil.
Not only can you enjoy the brighter light at night, but you can also use it to flatter Master Zhao Ji.
Artists like Master Zhao Ji, once artistic inspiration comes, will splash ink on rice paper to express their inspiration no matter it is day or night.
With this kind of brighter lighting fuel, Master can do art every time at night.
You can see the warm and innocent smiling face of your beloved disciple in the light.
To gain Master's favor is a long-term and arduous task, which must be remembered at all times. Whenever there is any good thing, Master's share must not be forgotten.
Only by allowing him to feel the meticulous care and consideration of his beloved disciple can the favorability be locked at MAX.
After wandering around for a while, Gao Zhang and Tan Zhen came to the exhibition area belonging to industries owned by Kaifeng Metal Workshop or secretly held shares.
The dazzling variety of ready-to-wear, underwear, boots and shoes of different lengths, socks from opaque to transparent, from spring and autumn to winter and summer.
In addition to these light industrial exhibits, glass products and clocks, which are worth thousands of dollars, will only be available on the opening day.
In addition to those, Gao Zhang is naturally also indispensable in using the local specialties of Liangzhe Road to produce good things, such as black tea.
"Gao Xuanfu, can those barbarians get used to drinking this tea?"
Looking at the jars with special labels written on the outside, Tan Zhen felt that he still had something to say.
After all, after he became the Secretary of Shipping, he could be regarded as doing what he loved, and he also conducted detailed research on the main foreign trade commodities of the Song Dynasty.
Just in time to show off his skills in front of Gao Xuanfu.
"You must not know, Gao Xuanfu, that most of the tea produced in the Song Dynasty was sold to Japan and Korea, and mainly to Japan.
As for the barbarian merchants who came from afar, almost none of them could accept the taste of this kind of drink. "
"Occasionally, I have become accustomed to drinking some in the Song Dynasty, so I buy some in small quantities..."
"Moreover, tea is not easy to store for a long time. Once the time goes by, the taste of brewing will not be good."
"Thank you Tan Zhongguan for your kind reminder, but the tea I made is not the green tea that I often drink in the Song Dynasty, but the black tea made using the full fermentation process."
"Black tea...fermentation process?"
Tan Zhen looked confused. Our family only knows that wine needs to be fermented and soy sauce needs to be fermented.
But this tea is actually used for fermentation. This is the first time in my life that I have heard of it.
"It's normal for Tan Zhongguan not to know. After all, this new tea variety has not been sold yet since it was produced.
I wonder if Tan Zhongguan is interested in trying this new tea product? "
#####
Seeing Gao Zhang's confident look, Tan Zhen naturally followed the good wishes and did not dare to offend Gao Xuanfu's good intentions.
Gao Zhang raised his hand and gave a few instructions to the waiter in charge of tea here, and then he and Tan Zhen came to a place to rest and drink tea and sat down.
Soon, the waiter brought a pot of tea and two cups.
Soon, the golden tea soup was poured from the mouth of the pot into the cup.
Tan Zhen couldn't help but look surprised when he looked at the golden tea in the white porcelain cup.
"Is this black tea? Just by looking at the color of the tea, we feel that it is completely different from the tea we drink.
Unexpectedly, Gao Xuanfu was not only good at civil and military affairs, but also dabbled in tea making..."
While talking, Tan Zhen picked up the tea, brought it to his nose and sniffed it, and immediately let out a light sigh.
I noticed that the fresh and elegant aroma of this black tea was completely different from the green tea I usually drank.
The smell is somewhat similar to fruit flowers, but also like the aroma that comes from certain foods after being grilled.
This made Tan Zhen couldn't help but take a sip. Sure enough, the taste was very different from that of green tea.
There is a slight sweetness in the mouth and a smooth texture, which makes people feel very gentle and comfortable.
Especially after taking a big mouthful of warm tea soup, I feel warm in my belly, which is especially comfortable in this humid and cold winter in the south of the Yangtze River.
Gao Zhang watched Zhongguan Tan take a sip without speaking, so he couldn't help but ask.
"How's it going, Zhongguan Tan?"
"This tea is completely different from the tea our family has drunk. Especially the soft and sweet taste after entering the mouth is very enjoyable."
"If you are not used to the taste of green tea, you can really try the sweet and soft taste of this black tea."
Seeing Tan Zhongguan's expression of elated drinking and admiration, Gao Zhang felt that although he was flattering, at least his evaluation of black tea was fair.
In a blink of an eye, we finally arrived at the Hangzhou International Commodity Expo, which covers an area of several miles.
Not only were a large number of Chinese and foreign merchants, but also many people from Hangzhou City came to join in the fun.
After all, Hangzhou has opened a port, and just seeing those Hu merchants with red beards and green eyes will make people feel novel.
And early this morning, Gao Zhang had already changed out of his official uniform, led a group of personal entourage, and came here to take charge.
As for Cai Laoliu and Tong Zhisheng, they also rushed over happily and were sitting in the tea shop with Gao Zhang to enjoy.
#####
In the winter in the south of the Yangtze River, the drizzle is falling, and it can really be described as misty and misty, but if it falls on the merchants who are running around, they will suffer the consequences of old noses.
The coldness of the northern winter, if it were a physical attack like a cold sword.
Then the winter in the south is definitely a magical attack that penetrates into the bones, flesh, and even the soul.
Ali, a barbarian maritime merchant from Maloma, was currently holding an oil-paper umbrella and walking around the bustling expo site.
His products have won the favor of many merchants from the Song Dynasty here, and they have already made several big deals.
And he began to stroll around the expo site in an extremely relaxed mood.
The target is the special product exhibition area that I have seen in the exhibition hall in the dock area.
At this moment, this area can simply be described as a sea of people. At this moment, many people have already put away their oil paper umbrellas in order to squeeze in and have a chance to squeeze through.
It was so dense that it was difficult for Ali to find a way out. Seeing this scene and hearing the exaggerated exclamations and noises from the dense crowd made Ali feel a little frustrated.
If he had known this, he should have ignored the business at his booth and rushed over to grab a spot.
Ali, who wandered outside for a long time but couldn't squeeze in after all, quickly noticed the tea shop not far from this large exhibition area. It was still so early, but it was almost full of people.
PS: There will still be five updates today, but it will be late. Everyone will watch tomorrow morning.
