choose tea

Gaoling Township is rich in "Gaoling Yunwu Tea". In order to promote the brand and increase the income of tea farmers, the township party committee decided to hold a large-scale tea feast, inviting well-known experts in the domestic tea industry to come and taste tea. The important task of preparing for this tea banquet was designated by Secretary Liang of the township party committee, and fell on Tang Jie, the propaganda committee member.

That day, Tang Jie was arranging the background at the tea banquet. Secretary Liang brought his comrade-in-arms Lang Guangxiang here. After seeing the background being arranged, Secretary Liang was very satisfied. Before leaving, he suddenly asked: "Committee Tang, have you selected the tea leaves for this tea banquet?" Tang Jie hurriedly said, "Already selected."

Secretary Liang nodded and said, "Okay, I heard that you have research on tea, and I'm relieved to have you in charge." After finishing speaking, he turned to Lang Guangxiang and said, "Guangxiang, aren't you also a big tea maker in the village? You can also use your tea leaves for Commissioner Tang to choose!"

Lang Guangxiang was very happy when he heard it: "Okay, if my tea is selected, I will sponsor the tea used in this tea feast!"

As soon as Secretary Liang and Lang Guangxiang left, Tang Jie murmured in his heart: Secretary Liang brought Lang Guangxiang to me in person, and asked Lang Guangxiang to bring tea leaves to participate in the tea selection. Any fool would understand the implication. But this is a large-scale tea banquet representing the highest level of tea quality in the township. What if the quality is not good?

Secretary Liang was right. Tang Jie has studied tea. He knows the quality of tea from dozens of families in Gaoling Township who process tea. Although Lang Guangxiang's tea is not bad, but because many processes of his tea are made by machines, its color, aroma, taste, and shape are far inferior to the hand-cooked green tea made by Yao Sanbo in Lishan Village. Just the day before yesterday, Tang Jie had a phone call with Yao Sanbo, saying that his tea might be used for the tea banquet. Now Secretary Liang suddenly came to intervene, what should I do?

Tang Jie returned to the office full of thoughts. It happened that Yao Sanbo came. He brought two boxes of tea and said he was making samples for Tang Jie. Not long after Yao Sanbo left, Lang Guangxiang also came with two boxes of tea, and said he was making samples for Tang Jie. What made people vomit blood even more was that after Lang Guangxiang left, several well-informed tea processing households came, all carrying tea leaves, saying they were using them as samples.

Looking at the various tea leaves, Tang Jie was heartbroken. He simply picked up the phone and called each tea processing household one by one, asking them to take two boxes of tea leaves as samples.

Early the next morning, Tang Jie received a call from Secretary Liang: "Commissioner Tang! Some people say that you call people everywhere to ask for tea. What's going on?"

Tang Jie replied with a wry smile: "Secretary Liang, there is a display of tea leaves at the tea banquet, so I asked for everyone's tea leaves as samples. I will return them all when the tea banquet is over."

"Oh, that's it. I'm relieved." Secretary Liang hung up the phone.

On the opening day of the tea banquet, there was a row of display cabinets in the venue, which contained samples sent by various processing households. There is a small dish with some tea leaves in front of each sample, and there is a label with the name of the processor. In this way, the atmosphere of the tea banquet is strong, with both appreciation and display, and the processing households applauded this trick one after another when they saw it.

For this tea banquet, the top experts in the domestic tea industry were invited. After the leaders accompanied the experts to take their seats, the wonderful tea banquet performances began immediately. At this time, seeing that no one was paying attention, Lang Guangxiang secretly changed the place of the small plate in front of the counter with that of Yao Sanbo, and went to watch the performance with confidence.

The melodious sound of guzheng sounded in the meeting place. Several beauties in Hanfu first walked slowly in front of the experts with tea leaves. The dream is like a dream... At the end of the song, the beauties got up and brought the tea to the experts one by one, asking them to taste it. After a silver-haired expert took the teacup, he first carefully looked at the color of the soup, and then carefully After taking a sip, he couldn't help nodding his head in praise.

As soon as the tea tasting was finished, the expert left his seat and went to the display cabinet, and looked carefully. After a while, he stopped in front of Lang Guangxiang's samples and nodded repeatedly.

The name of this expert is Cai Zhongshi, a professor at the Agricultural University who specializes in tea and is called a contemporary tea saint by insiders. He is a heavyweight invited to this tea feast. As soon as he left his seat, he caught Secretary Liang's attention and immediately followed him.

Seeing Secretary Liang following him, Professor Cai excitedly pointed to Lang Guangxiang's tea sample and said, "Secretary Liang, this tea is not bad. I can tell that this is the tea that was brewed for us. Send someone right away, and I will Go to the tea processing site and have a look."

Upon hearing this, Secretary Liang said it was easy to handle. He immediately took out his mobile phone and called Tang Jie, saying that Professor Cai had taken a fancy to Lang Guangxiang's tea and wanted to visit his processing site. Upon hearing this, Tang Jie said, "Lang Guangxiang is also at the venue. I'll call and ask him to come too."

Secretary Liang and Professor Cai got into Tang Jie's car, and the three chatted enthusiastically in the car. After a while, Tang Jie's voice was heard: "Secretary Liang, we're here!"

Secretary Liang said "hmm", got out of the car and took a look, he was stupid! This is not Lang Guangxiang's processing factory at all, but Yao Sanbo's processing factory in Lishan Village. Yao Sanbo was busy processing the tea leaves with his own hands. When Professor Cai saw him, he immediately rushed over with joy, taking pictures with his camera...

Secretary Liang was very puzzled, and asked Tang Jie in a low voice, "Why did you bring Professor Cai here?"

At this time, Lang Guangxiang also arrived. Tang Jie pointed to Lang Guangxiang who was walking towards him, and said, "Ask him."

Lang Guangxiang said with a wry smile: "Actually, the tea that Professor Cai likes belongs to Yao Sanbo. I just adjusted the tea in a crazy way... After Committee Tang found out, he brought the professor here..."

"Huh?" Secretary Liang was taken aback.

Lang Guangxiang told Secretary Liang with some embarrassment that he learned how to make tea from Yao Sanbo, but Yao Sanbo roasted tea by hand, and he used semi-mechanized roasting in order to pursue output, so there was a certain deviation in the quality of tea. Just now when he learned that Professor Cai was going to visit his processing plant, he realized that he had caused trouble. When Professor Cai went to his own processing plant and compared the tea leaves, he would know that he was a counterfeit. He immediately broke out in a cold sweat, and he didn't want to let this tea banquet fall into his hands, so he broke his heart and told Commissioner Tang the truth...

I see! Secretary Liang looked at the comrade around him again as if he didn't know him...

At this time, Professor Cai came over excitedly and said: "Secretary Liang, the tea frying technique of this family is obviously different from other families, and has its own characteristics. I see, you can apply for the national intangible cultural heritage The tea frying skills project..."

Upon hearing this, Secretary Liang shook Professor Cai's hand excitedly: "Really? Thank you, Professor Cai!"

After seeing off Professor Cai, Tang Jie came to Secretary Liang's office and said to Secretary Liang, "Secretary Liang, you, punish me!"

"Punish you? Why?" Secretary Liang was a little surprised.

Tang Jie lowered his head and said, "Actually, I have no use for the tea leaves that Lang Guangxiang brought. The tea leaves from Yao Sanbo were used in the tea feast."

Secretary Liang looked at Tang Jie puzzled, and said, "I asked you to check it out. Whose tea is good, you can use the tea. That's right..."

Tang Jie looked at Secretary Liang, sighed and said, "Oh, it seems that I misunderstood you..."

Secretary Liang was at a loss: "Committee Tang, what's going on?"

Tang Jie blushed and said: "That day, you brought Lang Guangxiang to the venue to talk about the tea. I thought you wanted me to use the tea of your comrade-in-arms Lang Guangxiang. But I know that Lang Guangxiang's tea is not comparable to that of Yao Sanbo. I insisted on using Yao Sanbo's..."

After hearing this, Secretary Liang sighed and said: "Committee Tang, I brought Lang Guangxiang here that day, just to let the tea processing households participate in this activity, not to open the back door. This matter is considered to be mentioned to me. Wake up, you have to be careful when leading people and speaking in the future..."
