Liang Chuan had been struggling for days because of the education issue, which made him very anxious and anxious, but to no avail. The education issue was the most difficult problem to solve in thousands of years, and it was the Emperor's House that gathered the most advantageous resources in the world. , there is nothing we can do about this problem.
We often want to educate good children, but we end up educating them into immortal kings. Liang Chuan was so scared that he almost peed when Su Wei said it, but after thinking about it for several days, he was unable to do anything!
The Sun family's tea mountain has been harvested, but the newly made tea leaves are not transported to the port like in previous years. They are all left in the warehouse. When the tea farmers heard that the Sun family had sold all the tea mountains, they began to worry. In the past years, they had been working for the Sun family. Will the new owner use them again in the future?
Sun Houpu had already decided on the time to go south. Before leaving, he took Liang Chuan to the tea farm in Changkeng. The huge tea mountain was the hard work of several generations of his Sun family, and it was also a place where countless people relied on for their livelihood. Liang Chuan would not be lost if he could not leave it. If you think about it again, Sun Houpu can't do such a thing.
The tea plantation was Sun Houpu's last concern. Of course, Liang Chuan had to try his best to do it well. He took the Four King Kongs and Xiaocheng and several people together to Changkeng.
Liang Chuan always wanted to transform the tea drinking style of the Song Dynasty.
He really couldn't stand the method of drinking tea in a soup with ginger and garlic. He made tea according to his own style in Liangchuan, a few acres of tea garden in Fengshan. He once sent several kilograms of finished tea to Fan Zhongyan and Ouyang Xiu in Bianjing. With Yan Shu.
These three people have the same aspirations, and they are not the kind of vulgar people who have no choice but to be greedy. If you want to promote tea, you must first get their approval!
The cultural style of the Song Dynasty emphasized simplicity and artistic conception. Although Long Tuan Hua Tang has its own artistic conception, compared with Liang Chuan's method of making tea, it seems more cumbersome. The brewed large bowl of black and foamy tea has the smell of ginger and garlic, which makes people forget Liang Chuan's method. The tea method is much more elegant.
Put a tea tray with a few cups on it, boil the water, and the crystal clear tea flows out, savoring the fragrance and elegance. The three bosses immediately asked Liang Chuan for a lot of such tea!
This time Liang Chuan hopes to use this piece of tea mountain to make some changes. If the tea purification method really becomes popular in later generations, if nothing else, Liang Chuan will definitely monopolize a few of them and will be able to make a lot of money by then!
A few people went to Changkeng for a walk. Sun Houpu took Xia Xue to pay homage to his mother's grave. Although Chashan was important, there was nothing to see. On the other hand, Sun Houpu went to his mother's grave. It was a small earthen grave that did not even have a seal. , covered with weeds, extremely desolate and lonely.
I heard from Sun Houpu that the Sun family also has its own Shuifeng land, where the ancestors of the Sun family are buried. However, his biological mother was not qualified to enter that place, so she found a piece of wasteland alone like a lonely ghost. Buried hastily.
Sun Houpu sat quietly on the grave, muttering something, which forced Xia Xue to cry. The two had different life experiences, but they had something in common. They were both poor children who were born without maternal love. .
After all, Xia Xue's mother still has a status. As for her grandma, she will only be able to stay lonely in the mountains and forests for a hundred years, without support or company. If this son hadn't remembered that this piece of earth was her home, there would be no more in the world. Who will remember that she was here?
This is probably the sorrow of women, especially those from high-ranking families. Most of them are reduced to tools for reproduction, insignificant during life and disappear after death. . Liang Chuan and others waited quietly. They did not speak, let alone could speak. No matter how much they said at this moment, they would seem so feeble. Xiaocheng seemed to understand the heaviness of this moment, looking at the adults, blinking his eyes.
The tea farmers knew that every year the eldest young master Sun Houpu would come to pay homage to the aunt's grave. When they saw the smoke rising from the mountain, they gathered there. The number of tea farmers was very large, almost more than 500, which was almost the strongest labor force in several nearby villages. , and housewives.
Xiaocheng looked at more and more tea drinkers and asked Liang Chuan nervously: "Dad, there is someone!"
"Saw it!"
The tea farmers waited for Sun Houpu to finish sweeping the grave ceremony before they dared to gather around Sun's mother's grave. Everyone had a look of anxiety and uneasiness on their faces.
"Young Master!"
Sun Houpu had already seen this group of tea farmers, and the one he was talking to was an old tea farmer who had been harvesting tea in this mountain for nearly forty years. He could no longer remember his name, but he always called him Uncle Liu.
"Uncle Liu, what are you..."
Uncle Liu spoke with everyone in a very polite tone. Everyone in the Sun family had a very average attitude towards these tea people. They were no better than the servants. Even the eldest young master never regarded them as coolies working for the Sun family. , treated them extremely kindly. In previous years, I heard that if someone in the family had a headache or fever, Sun Houpu would give medicine and food to them. Although there was an element of trying to win people's hearts, the tea farmers felt comfortable, which was better than those who looked at him coldly!
"Young master, we heard that the master has sold all the tea farms in Chashan. We don't know which master will take over. We just want to find out if we can still be tenants of Chashan."
If people no longer accept the tenants, or have their own tenants, then these tea farmers who have worked for the Sun family for generations will not know where to go. Their ancestors relied on the mountains to make a living, and the mountains have been turned into tea farms. Where can they go to make a living?
Xia Xue looked at these tea farmers. Their clothes were only a little better than those farmers living on a few acres of thin fields down the mountain. Their faces were full of vicissitudes and confusion. She had no idea that there were so many people on the mountain. Live on tea.
She had discussed with Liang Chuan to sell the tea mountain to him. If she had known that this deal would cause so many tea farmers to lose their jobs, she would not have agreed anyway.
She has never understood what Liang Chuan was thinking. What if Liang Chuan flattened the tea mountains and cut down all the tea trees. .
Xia Xue glanced at Sun Houpu. Sun Houpu calmed everyone's agitated emotions, pointed at Liang Chuan and said: "From now on, Mr. Liang of Liangchuan will be the owner of this mountain farm. You can continue to work with confidence. Mr. Liang is a good man. He I will continue to let you work as sharecroppers on this land, as long as you listen to him!"
Liu Lao'er asked: "Young master, please don't blame me for being troublesome. I have lived in this mountain farm for as long as I can remember. Our Sun family has always done well. I have never heard of what happened to the master. Why should we sell the tea farm?" If you have any difficulties, we can help..."
The tea drinkers were afraid that a master who didn't know how to serve would come and he would get upset and take all of them away, and they would still have to go out to beg for food.
What Liu Lao'er said was a bit overestimating his abilities. If the Sun family needed their help, that would be enough. However, the tea farmers just had good intentions, and Sun Hopu would not think much of it.
"There is no problem with the Sun family. I am now alone in the Sun family. Don't worry about it. Manage this tea mountain well. Master Liang is a good boss. If you follow him, life will get better and better in the future!"
"Young Master..."
"Take the folks back, there's no need to say anything more!"
Liu Lao'er saw that Sun Houpu did not look like a person in distress. After receiving his reply, he led everyone to Liang Chuan and said hello. Liang Chuan also clasped his fists and gave everyone a kind smile, and the tea farmers left the mountain farm.
"Let's go back too!" Sun Houpu took Xia Xue's hand and said to everyone. The tea mountain has gone around in a circle, and there is nothing good to see.
A group of people were walking down the mountain when a wild boar suddenly jumped out! Xiaocheng yelled and chased after him, not forgetting to turn around and say to everyone: "Good guy, he's just hungry, everyone, please wait for me to get you something delicious!"
Liang Shiguang glanced at Liang Chuan and hurriedly followed him. The lesson he learned last time was painful enough. As Liang Chuan's subordinate and Xiaocheng's master, Liang Shiguang blamed himself even more. Seeing Xiaocheng's playful nature again, he quickly hurriedly Chased him.
The wild boar is a ferocious beast that dares to fight with big insects and bears.
Everyone was exhausted after walking on the mountain road for a day, so they took this opportunity to sit down and have a rest. Yuchitian found a pile of firewood and lit a bonfire. The temperature in the mountains was much lower than that of the seaside below. After building a fire, several people suddenly felt much better!
"Let's repair my mother's grave?" Xia Xue said to Sun Houpu.
"Well, I'll start doing this when I come back from Nanyang this time."
"How about I do it? It should be fine by the time you come back!"
Sun Houpu didn't have time, but Xia Xue took the initiative to take on this task. Changkeng was not a short distance away from Qingyuan, so Xia Xue was worried if he had to do it by himself. There were so many wild beasts and other dangers along the way.
"You still have Anjifang to be busy with, so leave it alone for now. There's no rush now!"
While the two were talking, Xiaocheng and Liang Shiguang walked out of the grass covered in blood!
Everyone was shocked. It was unlikely that another accident would happen. Xiaocheng laughed and said, "I killed the wild boar and cut off the fattest leg. Everyone is in for a treat!"
Liang Shiguang skewered the meat on a branch and grilled it slowly over the fire.
"The last time I ate wild boar was a few years ago. Thinking about it, I really miss those days!"
Sun Shubo was a little stunned when he saw it, and immediately stopped Liang Shiguang's behavior and said: "Old Liang, what are you doing? The wild boar can't be like this!"
"What's wrong? Do you want to take it back and cook it again?"
Sun Shubo said: "Wild boar meat is not delicious without being smeared with sesame oil and seasoning. The shreds are thick, the smell is strong, the fat is low, and the taste is bad. How can it be eaten without being thrown into the pot and simmered for half a day?"
Liang Chuan smiled bitterly and said: "Back then, when we ate wild boar, we added a little salt, and it tasted extremely delicious. Now I hear you say there are many varieties. If I do as you say, it will definitely taste more delicious!"
Sun Shubo said: "When I was in the army, we often went out to hunt and come back to make tooth sacrifices. The wild boar ate a lot. It was just like this casually at first. Later, an old man in the army taught me this method. After eating it, I will never forget it. !”
Liang Chuan said: "How about I go to a nearby village to make excuses? My mouth is watering when I hear what you say!"
