Admiral Middle Age

"Yes, yes." Pushed and shoved by Serapis, the ship girl of the Short Shirt stood in front of Lin Jianguo with a whole body of discomfort, standing in the eyes of everyone.

She wanted to hide behind the crowd, at least, behind Serapis.

However, Serapis behind her is still happily pushing her hard. As a sailing warship, she is obviously not at the same level as Serapis in terms of strength: "I ……I have……."

"Oh, this girl in my family is a bit shy. She doesn't like talking to outsiders." Admiral Adelaide, with a rippling fat body and a short shirt size, blocked Lin Jianguo and the short shirt size with a bright smile on his face. Between the tea boats: "Well, I think you look like you, you should be from those eastern countries, hey, you orientals like to drink tea the most, why don't you buy some tea here?"

"I have the tea here." Veneto walked between Lin Jianguo and Adelaide with his head held high. The small man actually walked like a dragon walking like a tiger: "I have the best black tea here."

Turning his head, looking at the face of his admiral inadvertently, seeing the uncontrollable joy on Lin Jianguo's face, and the clear desire on the face of the eldest sister, Veneto secretly sighed: "But my admiral has I also want to change the taste from time to time, so, what is your tea like? Take a look."

"Okay, okay, short shirt, hurry up and bring out some tea, let these distinguished guests take a good look and see what they want." Adelaida was very happy.

He was exhausted from discussing business with that little guy named Veneto before.

Everything must be exchanged according to the market price, whether it is resources for currency, or currency for materials, the little battleship girl inside insists on exchanging according to the highest standard circulating in the market——in that case , Adelaide, who still wants to make a profit from the middleman as a middleman, does not have any benefits, so he can let go.

Of course he didn't want to do such a thing.

What's more, while chatting with Veneto here, he kept paying attention to Lin Jianguo, but he suddenly discovered that an oriental admiral actually gave up the business here and went to flirt with his wife.

How can this be tolerated?

I just want to earn some supplies from you here, but you directly want to hug the ship girl in my bowl into your bowl: so he urgently terminated the negotiation with Veneto and rushed to Lin Jianguo Here, the boundaries are drawn.

"I, I have Longjing, Maofeng, and Yuqian here..." Speaking of his specialties, the short shirt immediately looked a little more confident, and he reached out and took out a bag after a bag from his ship space. The tea leaves were sealed and wrapped with oiled paper, and a strong tea fragrance immediately began to flow among the crowd: "There is also oolong here."

Reaching out to take a bag of tea that was handed to him, he couldn't wait to lift the tea bag under his nose, and took a deep breath.

good smell.

Very strong, very fragrant, and very refreshing tea fragrance.

Through the thick and oily wax paper, it was clearly conveyed to Lin Jianguo's nose, and deeply touched his heartstrings: This is the taste of home.

"There are a lot of tea leaves, but the quality is not very good." The elder sister, Shi Linyao, also took a pack of tea leaves, weighed the tea leaves in her hand, smelled the taste, and after careful observation, shook her head regretfully.

"How, how is it possible?" My proudest thing was despised by others, and the small face in the short shirt flushed suddenly: "I, my tea is the best."

"It's impossible." Looking at the blushing face of the little girl who was about the same height as her, Shi Linyao shook her head with a smile: "Leaving aside, you foreigners who used to run long-distance freight at sea, can you To buy the best tea leaves, you must know that the best tea leaves were offered as tributes at that time. Ordinary people couldn’t buy them at all. As far as the tea leaves you bring out here, among all the tea leaves, at best they are The level of the second-class product is upward, coupled with the mistakes in later preservation, only Longjing and that pack of oolong can still be rated as superior, and they can be used to drink."

"No, it's impossible." Looking at the tea bag that Shi Linyao handed over to him, the face in the short shirt was flushed red, with his hands clasped behind his back, he didn't say anything to pick up the tea bag that Shi Linyao handed over: "I, mine Tea is the best. You, why do you say my tea is not good? Do you have any tea?"

When he said it, the short shirt himself felt that he had said it wrong.

The ship girl in front of her can be seen from her long black hair and yellow skin. This ship girl should belong to the yellow race from those countries in the east, and the tea is originally produced in those countries.

I said here that people may not understand tea-according to those orientals, this should belong to Guan Gong who sold big knives in front of him, and Confucius dropped his book bag at the door.

This is a disgrace to throw home.

The short shirt lowered his head and kept hiding behind Serapis.

Looking at the shy mother of the sailing warship, Shi Linyao smiled, and handed the tea in her hand to the curious Lin Jianguo: "Don't look at me, I don't have good tea, and I can't afford those good tea , as far as our treatment back then was, although it was not bad, we didn’t have the luxury to drink those top tea leaves.”

"However, at any rate, we were also key units back then, and we did well, and we could still pick some good tea from it." I remembered the kind of pulling a big tea mug and running to the leader. With the experience of mixing tea leaves, Shi Linyao couldn't help laughing: Speaking of which, the treatment of these people back then was really good, even when the country was so difficult, it was no less than theirs. eat and drink.Even thinking about it now, it really warms my heart: "But the best tea I've ever drank, it's better than yours."

"Which grade did you drink back then?" Lin Jianguo was really curious. He had been very curious to inquire about the original things before, but Shi Linyao refused all of them, saying that he wanted to keep it secret.

Now, listening to Shi Linyao's initiative to talk about those things in the past aroused his gossip, and really made him feel very interested.

"Which level can I get to! I said that I would drink from a big tea mug, how can I still get the best ones?" Anyway, this matter is not related to any military secrets, so I will chat with my admiral. Looking back on the past, it can be regarded as some very happy things: "They are all such big people, and they are all a little self-conscious. Although it is said that the tea leaves do not cost money, no one will deliberately take the best ones. Most of the teas I get are second-class, and many of them are even worse than hers."

"Oh, didn't you just say that the best drink you've ever had..." Stretching out his hand and shaking the two packs of tea in his hand, Lin Jianguo understood it all at once.

"They say it's the best drink I've ever had, and of course it's much better than the usual ones." Following her silly admiral wrinkling her nose, Shi Linyao's face turned pale as she recalled those warm scenes in her memory. There was also a slight smile: "Good tea can only be drunk on special occasions. Under normal circumstances, it's just to relieve fatigue. No one would drink the best tea for fun."

"Yeah." Thinking about it, that's the reason. When giving gifts, the ones you give out are always better than the ones you use for everyday use. Isn't there a saying: Those who buy wine don't drink, and those who drink don't buy wine: "Oh, that's right. , have you ever seen the kind of top... This is Longjing, it is said that the best Longjing tea is from the mother tree in Longjing Village, Hangzhou..."

"You want to eat farts!" He rolled his eyes directly, interrupting his admiral's imagining: "I said that we drink tea just to relieve fatigue, and there is no addiction or hobby. Who would spend so much money on it?" It takes time to make that top-notch tea. It will cost money and trouble at that time, tens of dollars is not enough for a pot of brewing..."

"Oh oh oh, I understand, I understand." Lin Jianguo really understood: let's not talk about how much tea can be bought for tens of dollars that Shi Linyao said, knowing that the price was low at that time, Dozens of dollars, it should be considered a lot of money at that time, maybe, with some connections, maybe you can really buy the tea produced on the mother tree in Longjing Village.

But the one she mentioned later is brewed in a big tea mug... Well, a large white or green enamel mug with red or white words serving the people painted on it, and the tea in it is produced from the mother tree of Longjing Village tea... This kind of thing, just thinking about it, feels like a waste of money!

Burning pianos and boiling cranes are not enough to describe such a waste!

"Then, do we want this tea?" Lin Jianguo hesitated as he weighed the Longjing and Oolong handed over by Shi Linyao.

"Yes, why don't you? We don't have any tea, right? Although it's close, it's better than nothing!" He reached out and snatched two packs of Longjing and Oolong from Lin Jianguo, and Shi Linyao hugged them in his arms. In his arms: "Besides, Longjing and Oolong are both fermented teas, and they are not afraid to put them. The longer they are left, the more fragrant they will be. It's just that this little sister didn't keep them well. They are a little damp, and it doesn't affect drinking. Why not?"

"Uh, then let's take it." Looking at the two bags of tea in Shi Linyao's arms, and at his own empty hands, Lin Jianguo waved his hands a little funny: "See how much you want, give it to Veneto Report the number, let her and this..."

This foreigner's name is hard to remember, it's just a blink of an eye, and I forgot what is this fat admiral's name?

But the good thing is that the name of this sailing warship that can embody tea is quite easy to remember, short shirt, an indispensable piece of clothing in summer: "This admiral of the short shirt, please discuss, look at his side How much tea can you take out? Buy as much as you can. Hey, by the way, is it directly exchanged with supplies?"

Lin Jianguo turned to ask Adelaide.After all, such a thing, as an admiral, can still make some decisions.

"All right, all right, all right." Adelaide grinned.The chubby head moved even faster, and the fat on the cheeks trembled so much that there was an afterimage: "It's absolutely fine."

"Admiral..." Veneto was dissatisfied: It was clearly agreed, and I had to make decisions about these matters today, but the admiral's words directly passed his decision...

"Well, oh, that's right, I agreed to leave this matter to you today, but it doesn't matter, why don't you buy some tea leaves, don't you also like drinking black tea?... Hey, that's right, black tea is also fermented Tea, right? Then Longjing and Oolong are both fermented teas, so they can also be brewed with black tea?" The beautiful woman Dovineto likes to drink black tea, and this is written in the setting... I guess.

Lin Jianguo didn't know the specific classification of black tea. He just knew that black tea and Longjing oolong are all fermented teas. They should be mixed, right? "Admiral." Veneto's eyes widened, and he put his hands on his hips, with a look of anger on his face: "It's okay, don't talk nonsense, what I like to drink is coffee, not black tea. Those who love black tea are those royals The ship girls..."

"Oh, oh, I remembered, I remembered, that is Elizabeth, the battleship Elizabeth. Our Weiwei likes to drink coffee, it is..." Lin Jianguo hesitated for a while, he always felt, and then asked The words he said didn't sound so pleasant: "Do you often drink Nanshan or cat feces?"

"Cats...the kind of civet cat coffee you're talking about." Adelida came over affectionately: "We also have it here, you, would you like some?"

The civet cat... Thinking that the coffee beans were picked out of its poop, Lin Jianguo inexplicably felt disgusted—although it is said that this kind of coffee is very good, and it is also quite expensive.

But no matter how expensive it is...: "That Weiwei, look, do you want some?"

Anyway, I definitely won't drink it, even if I kill you!

"I..." Looking up at Lin Jianguo's disgusted face, Veneto bit his lips hesitantly, and finally said with distressed expression: "..."

"We want it."

Well?

Veneto looked up in surprise, looking at Lin Jianguo who suddenly made up his mind: "..."

"But let's say it first, you can enjoy that thing yourself. I definitely won't drink it, and you don't pour it for me." Looking at Veneto's tangled face, he knew: Weiwei is very fond of coffee. That's true love.

But Lin Jianguo absolutely didn't want to taste the supposedly high-end coffee by himself!

However, he is also unwilling to block Veneto from enjoying this supposedly rare and expensive coffee because of his own reasons: "Well, how much of that kind of coffee do you have, see how much you can sell to me, we I want it all!"

Wow, it's such a cool feeling to pack everything with a wave of your hand and feel grand and lavish!

"No!" Lin Jianguo waved his hand grandly and approved the purchase plan, but Veneto was unwilling and arrogant: "I don't want what you don't want."

"..." Looking at the pouted Veneto with a face of embarrassment, Lin Jianguo opened his mouth a few times, but still couldn't say what I would drink with you when we arrived: "Well, Weiwei, we still want it Well, even if I don't drink it and you don't drink it, then we can take it to receive guests and show off our status."

"Yes, yes, this thing is very rare." Adelaide's big face also came over, looked at Lin Jianguo, then at Veneto, and recommended enthusiastically: "I don't actually have More, if you really want, you can wait for two days, and I can ship some to you from nearby."
