The sky-high price of tea leaves had come to life.
As a result, the popularity of the people who yearned for it also increased.
Jiangpu Villa Complex.
"Old man, this year, I will go pick the tea leaves from Manyuan Village myself. You don't have to send anyone.”
Chen Xu took out a brick phone from somewhere.
"Are you going alone?"
"Yes, go by yourself. I've only been to that tea tree once when I bought it. I haven't been there in the past few years.”
"Alright, then I won't send anyone."
"However, give me one more tael of tea leaves this year.”
One tael more?
Chen Xu was like a cat whose tail had been stepped on."No, there are only a few taels of tea leaves in a tree. If you want one more tael, those old men will come and ask for one more tael. Do I have any more?”
"No!"
"Absolutely not!"
"Don't be anxious. I just want you to order some tea leaves, right? Is there a need to do this?"
"Hehe ~"
Chen Xu sneered." I want some tea leaves. That's easy for you to say. Why don't you go get more for me?"”
"If I could get it, why would I ask you?”
"Besides, there's a special reason this time.”
"What's the reason?"
"You just said it!"
"When did I say that?"
Chen Xu was puzzled. He was sure that he had never said such a thing.
What a joke. It was just a few tea leaves. How could he give more? He wished he could give less than that.
"Didn't you say you were going to pick it yourself?”
Chen Xu was stunned for a moment before he responded," Old man, so I have to give you an extra tael just because I'm going to pick it myself? What kind of logic is that?"”
"Or are you saying that you embezzled my tea leaves every year?”
"Chen brat, don't slander others. Would we steal your tea leaves?”
Chen Xu snapped," If you didn't take my tea leaves, then why did you ask for another one liang? Don't you know what's going on with the tea leaves?" There are only a few taels of tea leaves. If you ask for more, will I still drink it?”
"My wife likes to drink. What's wrong with you old men drinking less?”
The other party was silent for a moment before continuing,"Chen brat, you didn't inform us when you got married back then. You must inform us when you have a child. Don't hide it from us again. It's all thanks to you all these years. Otherwise, Great Xia's economic situation wouldn't be so good.”
"Alright, alright, alright. We'll talk about it when the time comes."
"If the few of you come, you'll scare a lot of people to death. I'm afraid that my wife will be scared silly by you.”
"Kid, your words are so uncomfortable.”
"It's good that you know. If I really want to talk to people seriously, it's not interesting.”
"That's true."
"Alright, don't change the topic. We want a total of one tael of tea leaves. This request isn't too much, right?”
"Why?"
"Because you picked it yourself, it means a lot. If you sell it, I think a lot of people will be willing to buy it for ten million per gram.”
"There are even people who are willing to snatch it from you, believe it or not?”
"Boring. You old men still lack money? "If you really lack money, do you want me to send two carts over? Anyway, it's useless for me to put that money underground. There are several truckloads of cash placed there every year. After so many years, I don't even know how much cash there is underground.”
Chen Xu shrugged.
The price of this tea was already very high in the industry, but don't think that it was too high. As long as he was willing to sell it, a large number of people would be willing to buy it.
This was because it often represented a person's identity and status.
There was only a small amount of Da Hong Pao from Wuyi Mountain and Manyuan Village every year. In the entire Great Xia, there were no more than ten people who could get their hands on this tea. It was even possible that there were no more than five people.
Think about it, what does it mean for you to get this tea?
What would the others think?
Sometimes, the tea was not about whether it tasted good or not, but its value. One or two teas, or even just a few grams of tea leaves, could be the golden key to opening the door to wealth.
" Haha!" The old man laughed." You're a weirdo, kid. You're the only one who can think of building a vault under your own villa."”
"No, you're wrong."
Chen Xu shook his head and said calmly," It's just that the entire villa area is empty. I can't store so much cash and other valuable things under my own villa."”
"Aren't you afraid of being robbed?" The old man said unhappily.
"In Great Xia, I don't think anyone would dare to snatch my things from under your noses.”
"You brat, do you think we're your bodyguards?”
The old man laughed, feeling extremely relaxed.
Chen Xu didn't plan to talk to the old man any longer. It was already good enough that the old man took the time to answer his call. He couldn't waste his time anymore.
"I won't bother you anymore. I'll leave you one more tael of tea leaves, but you have to give me two more taels of Wuyi Mountain's Da Hong Pao.”
And then…
He hung up the phone.
At the same time.
The capital of Grand Xia.
The old man heard the beeping sound coming from the phone and looked at the others helplessly."He was hung up."
"Are the tea leaves here?"
"If we get it, but he wants two taels more at Wuyi Mountain.”
"Yes, that kid personally went to pick it this time. The meaning is different. Two taels for one tael.”
"You're just like that kid.”
"That's right. That kid isn't my grandson. If he was my grandson, I would be happy even if I went to the underworld to report.”
