  Chapter 272 Selling Black Tea

   "It really smells good, it's very different from green tea." Shopkeeper Shen felt the novelty.

   "Go, boil a pot of mountain spring water, I want to try this tea myself." Fan Chengxu had great expectations for the taste of black tea.

   Shopkeeper Shen hurriedly asked his attendants to boil mountain spring water and bring it to Fan Chengxu.

  Fan Chengxu brewed a cup of black tea in the same way as green tea. As the name suggests, the color of the brewed black tea is reddish brown.

   This color looks a little worrying, a bit like green tea left overnight.

  Fan Chengxu picked up the cup, and before he put it to his mouth, shopkeeper Shen stopped him: "My lord, why don't you let me try it first."

   Shopkeeper Shen was a little worried that this kind of tea would spoil his stomach.

   "I don't need you, I'll do it myself." Fan Chengxu didn't listen to shopkeeper Shen, put the cup to his lips, and took a sip.

   Shopkeeper Shen looked nervously at Fan Chengxu, seeing that his brows were furrowed, and his heart couldn't help but hang high.

   After a while, Fan Chengxu's brows relaxed, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, "Interesting, really interesting."

   "Master, this tea..."

   "The taste of this tea is very different from that of green tea. The taste is softer. It lacks the freshness of green tea, but it is a little more sweet." Fan Chengxu commented.

   "Does the young master think this tea tastes better than the tea we usually drink?" Shopkeeper Shen asked.

   "Not necessarily, each has its own merits."

   "My lord, should the tea leaves picked in the past few days still be processed into fermented tea according to the method that Mr. Xu explained?" Shopkeeper Shen asked.

   "Continue, the current tea leaves are losing money selling green tea. If you can make this kind of tea, you can still make a profit. Since you want to gamble, you must gamble thoroughly. Don't be intimidated." Fan Chengxu said.

   "Yes, young master." Shopkeeper Shen replied.

   "Also, from tomorrow onwards, black tea will be sold in the tea shop, and it is said that this tea is good for health and can strengthen the body." Fan Chengxu ordered.

  Fan Chengxu doesn't know if black tea is good for health, but it doesn't prevent him from making publicity like this.

   "Yes, Young Master." Shopkeeper Shen replied, "By the way, Young Master, His Royal Highness Seventh Prince and Young Master Lu are both in the tea house at the moment, and I heard that they also grabbed a spy and beat them half to death."

   "Let him go. He won't be able to send this great Buddha away for a while. We just need to take care of ourselves and satisfy him as much as possible without offending him."

  Fan Chengxu had no other choice. His uncle had already sent him more than a dozen letters to warn him, which made his head dizzy.

  Now, as long as Chu Lan doesn’t come to see him by name, he will try to avoid seeing him as much as possible. With this kind of effort, it’s more enjoyable and interesting to study business classics with Xu Heyou.

   As for the fine work, it has nothing to do with him. He didn't enter the official career because he didn't want to participate in these things.

   "Yes, son."

  After Yu Sheng Tea House launched the new black tea, it attracted many tea drinkers to taste it, and the word-of-mouth also became polarized.

  Some likes and some don't.

   For most people who are used to green tea, they are not very accepting of the taste of the new black tea. Although not many people find it unpleasant, many feel that it is far inferior to green tea.

   Losing the sweet and bitter taste of green tea means losing the most important thing about tea.

   But there are also people who like this taste after tasting, and feel that the taste is very soft.

   There are people who don’t know where to learn it, but boil it with milk and drink it together, which is called milk tea.

  Yu Sheng Tea House didn’t introduce this method at first, but after discovering that some ladies from aristocratic families like to drink it this way, Yu Sheng Tea House immediately made milk tea by itself, which attracted many people who came to try it out.

  But no matter what, due to the novelty of black tea and the health-preserving benefits of the publicity, the sales of black tea at Chaxuan are also very good, and the number of customers is 30% more than usual.

   Listen to Songyuan.

Xiumei told Wei Ruo about the black tea she had heard: "Miss, black tea is selling very well at Yusheng Tea House, but this Boss Fan is too treacherous, and even claimed to drink black tea to keep healthy and strengthen the body, isn't that true?" Fool people?"

Wei Ruo smiled: "He's a businessman, so there's no reason not to do profitable things. And what he said is not entirely wrong. Black tea does have some health-preserving effects. Compared with green tea, black tea is more friendly to the spleen and stomach. "

   "So, did Boss Fan get you wrong?"

"Yes. But he probably doesn't care whether black tea really has this effect. This so-called health-enhancing effect is also difficult to verify. Others can't catch his fault. He just attracts people to buy it. His black tea is ready." Wei Ruo said.

   "Then why didn't he use this trick before? As soon as Miss made this black tea, he said it has health-preserving effects." Xiumei asked.

"Because the tea in the past was not only owned by his family, but it has been passed down for thousands of years. He has nothing to make up. This black tea did not exist before, and now only his family owns it. Let him say whatever he wants." Wei Wei Ruo explained.

   "That's right!" Xiumei suddenly realized.

   "Okay, leave him alone, let's get these medicines ready first, and send them to Brother Xiaoyong."

  While talking to Xiumei, Wei Ruo didn't stop working.

  She sorted out a batch of new medicines and planned to send them to Xu Zhengyong.

  It was thanks to her second brother that she was able to make these medicines. After receiving the letter that day, she went to Fengyue Tea House and successfully got a batch of medicinal materials from the boss there.

  The quantity of this batch of medicinal materials is very considerable, Wei Ruo only used a part of it this time, and the rest was stored in the Four Treasures Zhai in Fucheng, and let the wet nurse and Uncle Xu take care of it.

  As for the Ganoderma lucidum and old wild ginseng won at Yu Sheng Tea House two days ago, Wei Ruo has already made them into pills and concoctions.

  At that time, Lu Yuhong gave the ganoderma lucidum and the old wild ginseng to Wei Ruo and Wei Yichen respectively, but after returning home, Wei Yichen sent the old wild ginseng to Wei Ruo.

  Wei Ruo was not polite at all, and just accepted it, so these two medicines were in Wei Ruo's hands in the end.

  The pills made by Ganoderma lucidum are Ningshen Yangqi Dabu Pills. They made a total of 20 pills. Wei Ruo packed six pills for Xu Zhengyong this time, and Wei Ruo planned to give Wei Jinyi the rest when Wei Jinyi came back.

  In contrast, Wei Ruo felt that Wei Jin also needed this tonic more.

While helping Wei Ruo to pack the medicine, Xiumei muttered: "Miss, my status in your heart is getting worse and worse. You see, I am preparing medicine for Brother Xiaoyong and Second Young Master. Medicine, but I didn’t drop any of them.”

  Wei Ruo stretched out his hand and flicked Xiumei's forehead, then said in a bad mood:

"You stinky girl, why are you jealous with the two of them? You are always by my side. If you have a headache, I will treat you at any time. They don't know how long it will take for them to see each other. Prepare so many medicines."

   "Miss, I'm just joking! How could I really be jealous of them!" Xiumei said with a busy smile.
