Quick Wear: Salted Fish anchor always eats melons on the scene

Zhang County produces tea.

The Sun family has been in the tea business for many years and owns several tea houses in Zhang County.

This time, the brothers Sun Fanzhong came to the tea house.

Previously, the manager of the tea shop had sent letters to the Sun family many times, saying that the tea shop's production this year was not very good and it might suffer a much greater loss than in previous years, and wanted to ask the owner to think of a solution.

The Sun family also knew that it was normal for the tea house's production to be affected by the heavy rainfall in the south this year, but the manager had said several times that he had to come and take a look in person to reassure the people under him.

This led to this trip, and I brought Shi Li along to broaden my horizons.

The manager of the teahouse knew that the visitors were the two young masters and the cousin of the Sun family, so he not only came to greet them personally, but also prepared the best tea and food in the teahouse.

It was Shi Li’s first time to come to the teahouse. She felt very fresh looking at the endless tea garden and the tea pickers working in it.

"Go in and rest for a while first. You'll have plenty of opportunities to see later." Seeing that her eyes were almost unable to see enough, Sun Fanzhong criticized her helplessly.

"If you like it, cousin, I'll have someone take you to have a good look later." The people in charge were all shrewd people. They could see that Shi Li had a different status in the Sun family and were very good at flattering and pleasing others.

The meals in the teahouse are mainly light, very delicious and novel.

After dinner, the manager brought over the account book with a bitter expression on his face.

"It rained heavily several times recently, and it's really hard to harvest tea this year... Gentlemen, please take a look. It's really not us who are lazy and play tricks."

The manager spoke sincerely and it was indeed the case. However, he made it sound more serious. He just wanted to get himself out of the situation so that his boss would not suspect that he was not capable of managing the situation.

Shi Li also looked at the tea house's account book and indeed found no problems.

Just now they got off the carriage and walked here, and also looked at the nearby tea fields and land, which were indeed affected by the rain.

"We all know what you're talking about, so don't worry too much." Sun Fanzhong put down the account book and said calmly, "But we will also go to a few other tea houses to check out the specific situation."

He has never been a young master who is easy to fool.

The more times like this happen, the more careful you have to be. Otherwise, if you are really deceived by the people under you, there will only be more and more problems in the future.

"Of course it should be like this." The steward nodded repeatedly and looked at Shi Li again, "Miss, you should go to the tea fields again. The sun is not very bright now. It looks like it will rain again tomorrow or the day after tomorrow."

Shi Li was indeed interested in tea picking and watched Sun Fanzhong.

"If you want to go, just go. It won't be tiring." Sun Fanzhong glanced at her and said unhappily.

Shi Li then followed the steward out.

The huge tea field is filled with fragrance as the breeze blows.

Many tea-picking girls, with square scarves tied on their heads, were picking tea leaves carefully. When they saw the manager, they stopped and waited to be questioned.

"You guys do your job, I'll bring Miss Dong over to take a look." The steward replied, and then looked at Shi Li eagerly, "Miss cousin, if there is anything you don't understand, just ask me."

As Shi Li walked through the fields, he asked some questions about tea picking. The housekeeper answered them one by one, very carefully, showing that he was very attentive to this matter.

When I was almost done walking around, a pretty girl with a light blue scarf on her head suddenly stopped me.

"Manager, I think it's going to rain heavily tomorrow. Our tea fields are in low-lying areas. Should we take a break tomorrow?"

The girl frowned and spoke with good reasoning, she did not seem like an ordinary tea picker.

The steward subconsciously glanced at Shi Li, then looked at the girl with a stern face, "I see, I will make a decision on this matter after I report to the boss, you can go do your job!"

Seeing this, the girl hesitated to speak and walked back to the tea field worriedly.

Shi Li kept looking at her back until she walked away. For some reason, she felt that this girl was not an ordinary tea picker.

"My cousin, please don't be surprised. That Yin was originally a lady from a rich family. Later, her family fell into poverty and she ended up working as a tea picker in the tea garden."

When the steward saw Shi Li staring at him, he took the initiative to explain.

Shi Li withdrew his gaze and was about to speak when he suddenly heard a loud noise above his head.

Following a clap of thunder, heavy rain began to pour down.
