Chapter 252: This is how to make money



With Xiao He's support, Zhao Jun felt that his tea roasting should be pretty good.

In addition, Lu Jing and County Magistrate Yu both thought it was no problem and were very supportive.

So the few of them then discussed and planned to promote the baking method in Shunan County.

At Xiao He's request, the King of Zhao gave him all the tea that had been roasted for the first time.

Tea is worth a fortune if you meet someone who truly understands it.

However, the subsequent events had nothing to do with Xiao He, as his road paving work had not been completed yet.

For more than a month, Xiao He and Liu Bang were busy with their road construction work.

Zhao Jun Lu Jing and Yu County Magistrate were promoting the method in Shunan County.

At first, Zhao Jun was worried that everyone would not be motivated.

Especially for these ordinary people, tea tasting is too far away from them.

But when she began to promote the baking method and emphasized that drinking tea can prevent some diseases, more and more people followed suit.

These simple people really don’t know how to appreciate tea, but they all know that knowing more is always better.

And this baking method is not difficult. If others can do it but you can’t, that won’t work.

Especially for those ladies who have a strong sense of winning, nothing can be difficult for them when it comes to handicrafts.

In the end, the tea leaves roasted by those ladies were even more beautiful in color than the ones roasted by Zhao Jun himself.

This month, the learning team in Shunan County has been very active.

"Although tea can prevent some diseases, you shouldn't drink too much. Try not to drink it on an empty stomach, as it will make you hungrier."

"And tea has a refreshing effect. Drinking too much can make you sleepy."

Zhao Junzheng was explaining at the top of his voice.

She set up a table in front of the county government office every afternoon, and interested people would come to watch and learn.

There are also many wild tea trees on the mountain. It is autumn now and the tea trees are very dense. Every household picks a lot to experiment at home.

But within a month, all the women in Shunan County had learned this craft.

People in several nearby counties also heard the news, but no one was interested in making a trip to Shunan just for the skill of roasting tea leaves.

After all, this is not a great skill that can make money. It’s fine if you do it at home, but people who live far away are unwilling to spend the effort.

But one day this situation suddenly changed.

The story begins with Aunt Xin's family.

Aunt Xin originally came from a very ordinary family in Shunan County.

She has three children, two sons and one daughter. Their main source of income is the few acres of mountain land at home and the income from raising rabbits.

Thanks to the high-quality corn seeds distributed by the county last year, their family's life is a little better this year.

When Zhao Jun started to vigorously explain the tea-drying method in the county, she of course went to learn it.

Anyway, the rabbits at home were taken care of by her old man and two sons, so she took her daughter to learn for five days and she quickly got the hang of it.

Originally, Aunt Xin learned this baking method just to join in the fun and to keep some for herself to try.

But things took a big turn not long ago.

The Xin family has raised a batch of rabbits. According to custom, Uncle Xin will take the rabbits to the prefecture and county to sell them.

His two sons also accompanied him.

After several days of trekking, the family finally arrived at Jinmao Street in Zhou County.

It was the Shu County Rabbit Trading Market that Zhao Jun and his friends had visited before.

The two brothers quickly found an empty spot that someone had just left and put down the cage they were carrying.

"We were very careful on the road this time. The rabbit looks good, so we should be able to make a move soon."

Uncle Xin squatted on the ground happily, looking at the rabbit with exceptionally good appearance with great joy.

The two sons were also very happy. The county was bustling, and after selling the rabbits they could go for a walk.

The father and his two sons sat on the ground, and soon they sold more than a dozen of them.

Although autumn has arrived, the heat is still very hot, especially since this place is full of rabbits, the smell is not very pleasant.

Xin Er pinched his nose and suddenly remembered something. He opened the bag he was carrying and found bags of tea.

This was given to him by Xin Sanmei when she went out.

I have been roasting a lot of tea leaves at home recently. Adding a little tea to the water when drinking always makes it taste better than plain water and has a better fragrance.

So Xin Er went to find a place to boil water nearby and made a large cup of tea with the kettle he brought with him.

It would be a good opportunity to take it back to quench the thirst of my father and brother, Xin Er thought.

Xin Er returned to the stall and opened the kettle of brewed water. He had to let it cool down a little otherwise he would not be able to drink it.

Just then, a businessman stopped in front of his stall, and it was obvious that he was from outside.

The businessman looked at the still lively rabbit and quickly negotiated a price with Uncle Xin.

Just as the businessman paid and was about to leave, he smelled a smell.

It's not the smell of rabbits that fills the yard, but rather the fresh fragrance of grass.

The businessman sniffed around and saw the kettle next to him that was open.

"What's in your cup?"

This man is an old businessman. He travels to Shu County for business most of the year, and the locals are familiar with him.

"It's tea leaves. They've just cooled down. Would you like to try some?"

Xin Er smiled warmly.

The old merchant didn't care and really picked up the cup and took a sip.

Then I was conquered by the fragrance.

Xin Da was a discerning man, and he noticed the surprise in the other person's eyes.

I quickly started to supplement my knowledge about the benefits of tea.

He heard all this from his mother and sister at home, and soon he could recite it word for word.

"You can't buy this anywhere else. I'm not lying to you. This is what the high-ranking official from Xianyang taught us."

Xin Da added.

The old merchants were already tempted after hearing about the effect of that meal.

In particular, Xin Da took out the remaining tea leaves in the bag and let him smell it, and it was indeed very fragrant.

The old merchant immediately decided to buy up all the remaining tea.

Not only that, the businessman also saw the huge potential of tea and planned to buy some more to take out of Shu County.

As a result, the tea they brought was not enough, so Xin Da agreed with the merchant that he would bring him more when he returned, as much as he wanted.

Under the stunned eyes of Uncle Xin and Xin Er, Xin Da and the businessman negotiated a big deal.

Tea is weighed by kilogram, and one kilogram of tea costs ten cents. You should know that they sell a rabbit weighing five kilograms for sixty cents.

A pound of tea is almost equivalent to a rabbit!

What a concept! You have to know that they didn't spend any money on this tea, so it's basically free money!

Uncle Xin really admired his son for being able to negotiate such a high price.

And the businessman actually agreed. It can only be said that he is a businessman with a keen eye. He saw the business opportunity at a glance.

The rest of the results are predictable.

This incident of the Xin family shocked the entire Shunan County.
