Chapter 448: Tea King's Shot

When Xia Ruofei said this, everyone in the room was stunned.

Li Guizhi said cautiously, "Mr. Xia, tea making is very labor-intensive. My dad's current body..."

Li Zhifu glared at Li Guizhi and said, "Didn't you listen to Xiao Xia? My health is very good now!"

"But... the whole process takes more than ten hours..." Li Guizhi said anxiously.

Only then did Xia Ruofei realize that he seemed to be a little ill-considered, but he had already said what he said, and he really hoped that Li Zhifu would make it himself. Only in this way can the quality of the space Dahongpao be truly tested.

So Xia Ruofei pondered for a while and said: "Aunt Guizhi, with me here, if there is any discomfort in Mr. Li's body, I can deal with it in time. And I have prepared some nutrient solution, which is very good for physical recovery. Yes, I think it shouldn't be a big problem."

Li Guizhi heard what Xia Ruofei said, so he didn't have anything to say anymore. After all, Xia Ruofei was their family's savior!

Although Ye Lingyun was a little worried about whether Li Zhifu's body could bear it, he was more confident in Xia Ruofei. Since Xia Ruofei even prepared the nutrient solution to restore his strength, Ye Lingyun felt more at ease.

Li Zhifu himself was a little surprised, and said with a smile: "Xiao Xia, if you want to watch tea making, there are many tea trees here in Wuyi Mountain, why don't you just pick a little fresh leaves? Do you need to bring your own? Let's talk about this season. The tea...the quality is not very good..."

Li Zhifu said something euphemistically, but the meaning is very clear.

Xia Ruofei pretended not to hear it, smiled slightly and said, "Mr. Li, these fresh leaves I brought... How should I put it... It may be a little different from ordinary tea leaves, you will know after seeing it!"

When Li Zhifu heard it, he was aroused by some interest and said, "Then what are you waiting for? Take a look!"

finished,

Li Zhifu led the way to the stairway. He walked with gusto, and he couldn't see that he was diagnosed with terminal cancer not long ago.

Everyone came downstairs together. Xia Ruofei took two steps and said with a smile: "Mr. Li, wait here for a while, the tea is in the car."

Ye Lingyun said quickly, "Brother Xia, I'll get it!"

"No, no..." Xia Ruofei said repeatedly.

He didn't give Ye Lingyun a chance to help, he walked quickly to the side of the car, and when he opened the trunk door, he thought, a large bag of fresh leaves was taken directly from the space and appeared in the trunk.

The bag of fresh leaves weighed six or seven pounds. Xia Ruofei stretched out his hand to easily pick up the bag, turned and walked to the electrical repair shop.

Xia Ruofei put the bag in front of Li Zhifu, then opened the bag and said with a smile, "Mr. Li, how about the quality of this fresh leaf?"

Li Zhifu grabbed a handful of fresh leaves with great interest. When he saw the green leaves, his eyes couldn't help but freeze. Then he put his head up, took a deep sniff, and immediately showed an expression of enjoyment. .

Li Zhifu looked over and over for a long time before he sighed and said, "Xiao Xia, your tea...is the most beautiful tea I have ever seen in so many years!"

Xia Ruofei didn't quite understand Li Zhifu's use of the adjective "beautiful", but with Li Zhifu's approval, Xia Ruofei felt a little relieved, and then he asked: "Mr. Li, you have handled the mother tree Dahongpao back then. Fresh leaves, right? How does my tea compare with the mother tree Dahongpao?"

Li Zhifu said seriously: "In terms of the quality of fresh leaves, it is absolutely on par with the mother tree Dahongpao, and the natural fragrance of tea leaves is more intense, but the techniques of the tea pickers seem to be a little less meaningful. Of course, this influence does not matter. Big!"

Xia Ruofei's face blushed slightly when he heard the words, thinking that this old man's eyes are too sharp! It seems that the seemingly simple work of picking tea is actually a lot of knowledge!

Xia Ruofei asked, "How is it? Mr. Li, are you interested in taking a shot?"

"Of course!" Li Zhifu was obviously very interested in these fresh leaves, "I haven't made tea by myself for many years, these fresh leaves are of such high quality, I'm really itchy! Xiao Xia, if you can trust me , leave them to me to deal with, I promise to help you make a good Dahongpao!"

Xia Ruofei was overjoyed when he heard the words and said, "Thank you, Mr. Li!"

Both Li Guizhi and Niu Yusheng had worried expressions on their faces, but they opened their mouths, but in the end they didn't say anything.

Because they know Li Zhifu too well, the old man has a very stubborn temper. Once he confirms something, eight cows can't pull it back, and what they say is nothing.

Li Zhifu said: "It's been a while since these fresh leaves were picked! We have to deal with it quickly! Xiaoxia, Xiaoye, let's go..."

"Where are you going?" Xia Ruofei asked subconsciously.

"Just get in the car, I'll show you the way!" Li Zhifu said.

Then he immediately picked up the bag of fresh leaves. Seeing this, Ye Lingyun quickly took the bag from his hand, walked quickly to the back of the Knight XV off-road vehicle, and put the large bag of fresh leaves into the trunk. .

The chassis of Knight XV is quite high. After Ye Lingyun put away the fresh leaves, he trotted to the rear door, opened the door, and helped Li Zhifu to get into the car.

Xia Ruofei also quickly got into the driver's seat.

Niu Yusheng and Li Guizhi were worried about Li Zhifu's health, so they hurriedly closed the store and got into the car together.

The fifteenth knight started, and Li Zhifu guided Xia Ruofei to drive out of the town. After ten minutes, he came to the door of a small tea factory.

It is said to be a tea factory, but the scale is quite small, and it looks like a family workshop.

Li Zhifu stuck his head out of the car window and shouted, "Gener! Open the door!"

A simple and honest middle-aged man walked out following the sound. After seeing Li Zhifu in the car, he quickly opened the iron door and Xia Ruofei drove into the yard.

The middle-aged man raised his head slightly and looked up at Li Zhifu in the car, and said in surprise, "Master, why are you here?"

Li Zhifu said, "What's the use of borrowing your guy!"

The middle-aged man was surprised and delighted, and said, "Master, do you want to make tea yourself?"

Li Zhifu said angrily, "Nonsense!"

At this time, Ye Lingyun got out of the car quickly, came to Li Zhifu's side, opened the door and helped the old man down.

Xia Ruofei and others also got out of the car, Li Zhifu pointed to the middle-aged man and said, "Xiao Xia, let me introduce to you, this is Yang Shugen, the owner of this tea factory, who learned tea making with me for a period of time in the early years. Gen'er, this is Xiao Xia from Sanshan, I'm going to help him make a batch of tea today."

Xia Ruofei understood as soon as he heard it, this poplar tree root is not Li Zhifu's official disciple, but he has also learned tea-making skills from Li Zhifu, but looking at the poplar tree root, he also respects Li Zhifu quite a bit.

"Hello, Boss Yang, I have troubled you." Xia Ruofei said with a smile.

Yang Shugen said quickly: "No trouble, no trouble... Master's business is my business, Boss Xia is welcome..."

"Okay, okay, you don't have to talk about these useless things!" Li Zhifu said impatiently, "Lingyun, go and take off the fresh leaves, you must hurry up and dry them!"

"Okay!" Ye Lingyun responded excitedly, and hurriedly went to take a large bag of tea greens out of the car.

Without Li Zhifu's instructions, Yang Shugen hurriedly ran to the house and took out a few large bamboo water sieves.

Under the command of Li Zhifu, Ye Lingyun and Yang Shugen poured the green tea on the bamboo water sieve and spread it out evenly.

Four bamboo water sieves were used in total of more than six catties of fresh leaves.

Then Yang Shugen and Ye Lingyun worked together to lift the bamboo water sieve to the empty field outside the yard. There was a row of shelves here, and they placed the bamboo water sieve on the shelves.

Li Zhifu raised his hand and looked at his watch, recorded the time, and then he said to Xia Ruofei: "Xiao Xia, the sun is just right now, let's use natural sunlight to bask in the green, and then use indoor heating to wither!"

Xia Ruofei said with a smile: "The fresh leaves are handed over to you, and everything is up to you!"

Li Zhifu smiled and nodded.

At this time, Yang Shugen walked in, while Ye Lingyun stayed outside and looked at the tea greens—this was Xia Ruofei's tea leaves, which Li Zhifu personally made. Ye Lingyun didn't dare to leave for a moment, for fear that something might go wrong.

"Gen'er, go make a fire, and it will start to warm and wither in a while!" Li Zhifu said.

"Good master!" Yang Shugen said immediately, then turned and walked into the house.

Li Zhifu shouted again: "Wait a minute, Gen'er, make a bed for me after the fire is finished."

Yang Shugen was stunned for a moment, then turned around and asked, "Master, you... are you staying overnight? Your body..."

"Just do what you want! What nonsense?" Li Zhifu said impatiently.

Yang Shugen said with a wry smile, "Got it..."

After Yang Shugen left, Li Zhifu said: "Gen'er is a good person, but sometimes he is a bit long-winded... Now there are not many people who insist on making tea by hand, because the output is not up, those big tea factories are all equipped with machines, I Just looking at it makes me angry! Gener has been making tea by hand for more than 20 years.”

Xia Ruofei said with a smile: "Mr. Li, Boss Yang is also persuading you because of filial piety..."

"I know my own body." Li Zhifu waved his hand and said, "Besides, isn't this a great doctor like you?"

Xia Ruofei smiled and nodded and said yes.

The two sat in the yard chatting, and time passed quietly.

At about two o'clock, Li Zhifu got up and shouted, "Lingyun, Gen'er, go and bring Cha Qing in!"

Ye Lingyun and Yang Shugen worked together to lift the bamboo water sieve into a room, and Xia Ruofei followed behind. As soon as he entered the room, he felt a warm feeling - Yang Shugen had already placed a few charcoal pots in the room ahead of time. , the charcoal inside is burning vigorously.

There was a row of large shelves in the room, Yang Shugen and Ye Lingyun put the bamboo water sieve on the shelf, and they all left together until all four bamboo water sieves were moved in.

It takes a while for the tea green to wither, and the only thing to do next is to wait.

Yang Shugen brought some chairs out, and then beckoned his daughter-in-law to bring some peanuts, melon seeds, etc., and put them on the stone table in the yard. Everyone sat around in the yard and chatted.

At about 3:40, Li Zhifu got up for the third time to check the house, and finally felt that the heat was almost over, so Yang Shugen and Ye Lingyun went to carry out the bamboo water sieve again.

Li Zhifu asked Ye Lingyun to combine the tea greens in the two bamboo water sieves, so that there were only two bamboo water sieves left.

He raised his head and said, "Xiao Xia, the next step is to shake the green. I will operate it myself. Ling Yun and Gen'er, you all have to look at it. How much you can learn depends on your good fortune!"

Ye Lingyun felt okay, after all, Li Zhifu taught him by words and deeds every day, while Yang Shugen rarely had such a close-up study opportunity, so he was quite excited, and he didn't even dare to blink.

Li Zhifu walked over and grabbed one side of the bamboo water sieve with both hands. The three-pound tea green plus the bamboo water sieve weighed six or seven pounds, and the bamboo water sieve was very large, so it was not easy for ordinary people to control it. However, Li Zhifu held steady.

I saw Li Zhifu start shaking the bamboo water sieve with a peculiar gesture, and the cool green leaves in the water sieve kept rolling and turning up and down.

Both Yang Shugen and Ye Lingyun watched Li Zhifu's operation intently.

For this process, Xia Ruofei learned some principles through online research-the fresh leaves are spiral in the water sieve, rolling up and down in sequence, and the flipped leaf edges collide and rub against each other, causing injury to cells and tissues, promoting the oxidation of polyphenols, and can Promote the formation of color, aroma and taste of rock tea.

But knowing how it works is one thing, how to operate it is another.

Xia Ruofei knew that Li Zhifu's gestures and movements were actually passed down by word of mouth. They were the crystallization of the wisdom of many generations of tea makers. The number, frequency and heat of shaking were also irreplaceable by machines.

Li Zhifu shook each water sieve about twenty times and then stopped.

Yang Shugen and Ye Lingyun hurried forward and moved the water sieve to the shelf.

For the first time, the shaking movements were not large and the number of times was relatively small. Li Zhifu's face was neither red nor panting, and he looked full of breath.

He said to Xia Ruofei: "Tonight, there will be four shakes in total. The first time is over, and the next time will start after dinner."

Yang Shugen hurriedly asked his daughter-in-law to prepare dinner, while Niu Yusheng and Li Guizhi left in advance.

After eating, about 6:30 in the evening, Li Zhifu began to shake the green for the second time.

This time, it was shaken about fifty times.

At 9:30 p.m., I shook the green for the third time, about 150 times.

The workload was getting bigger and bigger, and Li Zhifu was finally out of breath after finishing it, and beads of sweat began to appear on his forehead.

Ye Lingyun hurriedly poured a glass of water for Master and let him rest aside.

Xia Ruofei went to the car and took a bottle of "nutrient solution" for Li Zhifu to drink when he came back.

As soon as Li Zhifu finished drinking, his arms that were a little sore immediately began to recover, and his physical strength seemed to be full again. He, who was a little worried about the fourth and fifth shakes, suddenly became more confident.

After drinking the nutrient solution prepared by Xia Ruofei, Li Zhifu went to bed to rest for an hour, got up on time at around midnight, and began to shake the green for the fourth time.

The fourth time the green leaves were shaken 200 times, and there were also 60 hands in the middle. Li Zhifu was worried that his apprentice would operate this key link. He did it all by himself. Sweat profusely.

Fortunately, Xia Ruofei's nutrient solution is very magical, and his physical strength has recovered a lot after drinking it.

After the shake was over, Li Zhifu went back to bed to rest. He asked Ye Lingyun to set the alarm clock and wake him up at three in the morning.

Xia Ruofei also went back to the car and put the seat down for a while.

At three o'clock, Li Zhifu got up on time and performed the last shaking operation.

It is still the method of heavy shaking. This time, Li Zhifu asked Ye Lingyun to pour the tea greens in the two water sieves together. With the water sieves, the total weight was ten pounds. Li Zhifu lifted the weight and shook it three hundred and ten times. It is also mixed with eighty hands.

After a whole set of operations, Li Zhifu's clothes were soaked with sweat, he didn't even have the strength to speak, he just gestured towards Xia Ruofei.

Xia Ruofei quickly handed the nutrient solution that had been prepared to Li Zhifu.

Li Zhifu raised his head and drank it, and after resting for a while, he said, "Okay, the shake is almost done, let's ferment it!"

After speaking, Li Zhifu turned around and went back to the room to rest.

Xia Ruofei pulled Ye Lingyun and asked, "Lingyun, why is this tea-making process so complicated? How much has it been completed now?"

Ye Lingyun said, "Half of it! Master asked me to wake him up at 5:30. There are other procedures such as stir-frying, kneading, baking, etc., which are all very important. He must do it himself..."

Xia Ruofei also sighed inwardly when he heard the words, the process of making tea by hand is too complicated, no wonder those big tea factories use machines to make tea.

Fortunately, he has the petal solution of Lingxin Flower, otherwise, with Li Zhifu's advanced age and physical condition, it would be too difficult to complete all the procedures in person.

Xia Ruofei looked at the dim lights in Li Zhifu's room, and was full of respect for the old man who insisted on traditional tea-making skills.

At the same time, he is also looking forward to the final Dahongpao tea made tomorrow!
