Viscount house.


    Tang Hao and Wu Tong returned to the Viscount''s house.


    The housekeeper reported the tea purchased in the past two days and said.


    "Sir, you have fried the tea you bought according to your instructions. There are fifteen cans."


    Fifteen cans!


    Hearing this number, Tang Hao was very happy.


    However, the housekeeper''s next words immediately made Tang Hao unhappy.


    "There are too few Tea Gardens near Chang''an city. Most of them are not old trees, so there is less picking. Especially there is less fresh and tender tea."


    After listening, Tang Hao had some regrets.


    He also heard from the older generation that this tea tree can only be picked after three or four years. At this time, he can only pick it by topping and get a small amount of tea.


    Ten years later, when you enter adulthood, you can pick a large number of branches and stems. Thirty years later, you begin to age. You need to cut off the tree base and wait for the tea tree to grow again. After this round is completed, the tea trees need to be dug up and replanted.


    What''s more, the fertilizer in the Tang Dynasty was not as much as that in later generations, which further reduced the output of tea.


    Therefore, the tea fried by Tang Hao can only be supplied in a small amount at present, and can only earn the copper coins of princes and nobles.


    After Tang Hao finished his dinner and collected the fifteen cans of treasure, the servant reported that there were guests visiting.


    When Tang Hao came out of the yard and saw Du Rumei and Fang Xuanling, two courtiers, Tang Hao was confused.


    Tang Hao knew that the two were old friends of Li Jing, but he had no friendship with the two old ministers even when he was in Li''s house. Why did the two appear in his house at this time?


    Is it because they took office in Dali temple? These two ministers came to ask whether they would take military or civilian positions in the future?


    Out of courtesy, Tang Hao, who looked puzzled, invited them to his own hall.


    Tang Hao looked at them and said nothing. Instead, he looked around at his house.


    With a touch of doubt, Tang Hao asked.


    "What are you looking for?"


    As soon as the voice fell, the two old ministers looked at each other, smiled a little embarrassed, sat down slowly and didn''t respond.


    Du Rumei sat in front of the table, looked at Tang Hao, looked at the clean table, and asked.


    "Tang boy, you treat guests like this? How can we say that you are also your elder? You are so rude."


    Tang Hao was a little confused when he heard the speech.


    At this time, it was almost nightfall. The two old ministers came uninvited to see such a place and put two tables of wine and vegetables for entertainment.


    Stunned for a moment, Tang Hao waved to the housekeeper.


    "Go and let the dining room be served with a table of wine and vegetables."


    Before the housekeeper left, Xuanling opened his mouth and said with a little disgust.


    "Who cares for the wine and vegetables in your house? Besides, it''s getting dark soon. I can''t eat them."


    "Eh"


    Tang Hao could not help but be surprised and confused.


    What does it mean for two old ministers to visit at this time without drinking?


    Suddenly, Tang Hao''s heart brightened! These two must have come for tea!


    This time, there was a civil and military dispute in the court. These old ministers must have gone to changsun Wuji''s house and tasted the tea that changsun Wuji took from him at changsun''s house. Therefore, they came here specially!


    Tang Hao could even think that after seeing changsun Wuji''s tea, the two old ministers tried every means to ask for a taste. Finally, changsun Wuji must have cherished the three cans of tea and simply pushed the two men to himself.


    Although the Chang Sun family did not interfere in the government, it did not mean that they did not make friends with similar interests, just as Chang sun Chong did not interfere in the dispute over the monarch, but still established diplomatic relations with the king of Wei.


    Tang Hao hesitated for a moment and bit his teeth.


    "Forget it, go inside and get a can of green tea."


    The woman in charge of the family blessing God gave a gift, answered, and turned to get the gift and tea.


    Fang Xuanling and Du Rumei brightened their eyes and looked at each other with a smile on their faces.


    Two cups of green tea were brewed in a fragrant time. The two old ministers couldn''t wait to pick up the tea cup and sip it while blowing.


    Du Rumei said after tasting the fragrance of the tip of her tongue.


    "Good tea! Good tea! No wonder the eldest grandson is so stingy."


    Fang Xuanling smacked his tongue.


    "After drinking tea all my life, I know today that this is tea!"


    Tang Hao looked at the two old ministers as if they were children for food, and suddenly felt interesting.


    After tasting half a cup, Fang Xuanling put down the tea cup, looked directly at the celadon Weng on the table and said.


    "Tang boy, let''s discuss how many cans you have here? I''ll pay a high price."


    Hearing the speech, Du Rumei almost sprayed out the tea and said angrily.


    "Hey! I said to Lao Fang, don''t be so unkind. On the way here, I agreed to be half and half."


    Seeing that they were going to fight again, Tang Hao smiled.


    "Well, since both elders like to drink tea, I''ll give them one pot each, and you don''t have to compete."


    "It''s just that it''s difficult to buy fresh tea. I don''t have many in my family. I hope the two elders will keep it a secret."


    Two cans of tea can make a good relationship with the two important officials in the court. Of course Tang Hao is willing to do this.


    The tea is gone. You can fry it again. But the chance to get to know two important officials is not what you want.


    "Good nephew, you said earlier that there is a tea garden in my house. It is not small. It is planted by people from the south. It is all good tea trees. I''ll give you the tea garden. You only need to give me 10% of the fried tea every month."


    "Hey! Lao Du, our tea garden is adjacent. We are blessed to share. Tang boy, I''ll give you my share, too. It''s agreed to share 10% of the tea."


    After listening to the two proposals, Tang Hao''s heart brightened. With the tea gardens of these two aristocratic families, at least there is tea all year round, and the tea shop can be looked forward to!


    Looking at the expectant eyes of the two old ministers, Tang Hao smiled faintly.


    "Well, I can help take care of the tea garden. I''ll give you 30% a month. How about it?"


    Fang Xuanling and Du Rumei looked at each other and read the surprise and surprise from each other''s eyes.


    With these two tea gardens, the new tea is enough to buy dozens of tea gardens as big as that in a few months after it goes on the market.


    More importantly, dealing with such humeral ministers as Fang Xuanling and Du Rumei will be of infinite benefit to his future career.
