Chapter 629: Tea Eggs and Zhao Xiaoshu Tea
"Really that exaggerated?"
Zhu Xin was adamant, but his colleagues didn't believe him.
However, it didn't matter if they didn't believe him.
He turned to go to the car to rummage through his luggage:
"Their family's agricultural products sell very well; I specially brought 5 bags of tea egg braising spice for our team—what kind of look is that? I can tell you, this one braising spice bag is 20 yuan!"
"I haven't even married a wife yet; five bags is my limit; if you want more, buy it yourself!"
"You know my girlfriend is a teacher; she's so tired! And easily hungry! The ones I prepared for her, one or two a day is enough for her to eat for a year."
He thought about it, felt he had done a good job, and couldn't help but be happy.
Looking at his colleagues' indescribable expressions, Zhu Xin became even more persistent:
"Don't look down on it; you'll know once you eat it; what I described is not exaggerated at all!"
No matter how not exaggerated it was, it was still a tea egg! Compared to the delicacies in their imagination, this thing was really not eye-catching at all.
But they had been colleagues for many years, and everyone knew that although Zhu Xin could talk, he was reliable. After thinking about it, they reluctantly accepted:
"Alright then, let's have the canteen boil it later, take a nap, and it will be ready to eat after it absorbs the flavor."
Zhu Xin naturally saw his colleagues' distrust, and at this moment, he hummed:
"I'll see who can sleep soundly during their nap!"
After saying this, he carried his luggage and rushed toward the dormitory proudly.
Halfway there, he turned back and took out two more tea bags from the bag:
"This is also a cooling tea bag I bought at their home; the taste is great—forget it, I know you don't believe me, but anyway, it's 20 a bag; tell me, are you going to drink such an expensive tea bag?"
Another 20?
Now the colleagues became worried, because this price sounded like price-gouging—
What kind of family did they send Yingjun and Princess to?
But they had already sent them, and looking at Zhu Xin's appearance, they had been gouged, but the tea bags in hand couldn't be wasted, right?
Everyone looked at it, and still put it into a water pot on the side, and then poured a pot of boiling water and placed it there.
For a while, no one thought of drinking it.
Until it was almost noon, the person in charge returned from outside with a cup—those few steps had been enough to sweat him out, and seeing there was cooling tea in the room, he poured a cup without a second thought and poured it down his throat!
Halfway through, he put down the cup and sighed deeply: "So comfortable!"
And then he looked at the water pot: "What kind of tea is this?"
Wrapped in a white non-woven bag, he couldn't see what was inside, and the ingredients seemed quite complex.
One mouthful, clear and cool, the refreshing feeling seemed to rush straight to the top of his head, and unlike mint or mustard, it wasn't that stimulating, making the heat lingering on his head instantly retreat; it couldn't be more comfortable.
Just then, a team member came in and saw this, his expression strange:
"Boss, is it good?"
"Good!" The person in charge poured the bottom of the cup down his throat without hesitation, and then followed up by pouring another cup:
"Where did you buy it? I'll see if we can concentrate our team's procurement later; it's really comfortable to drink this in summer."
He liked it so much, which made the team member even more uncertain; at this moment, he leaned over to explain:
"This was brought back by Zhu Xin from the family that adopted them; he said it was 20 yuan a bag."
20?
The person in charge stared at the tea bag in the water pot for a moment, and then gritted his teeth:
"Still quite worth it!"
But he didn't dare to say anything about procurement anymore; if this bill were to be exposed later, it would be a wonder if their team wasn't scolded to death!
It wasn't that the tea water wasn't worth it, but apart from anything else, purchasing cooling tea for 20 a day—does it sound outrageous?
Since it got hot, the chain pharmacy opposite them had been shouting about activities, cooling tea bags for three yuan a bag, visible cooling medicinal materials.
Although they didn't boast directly, looking at the stories they told, the efficacy of the medicinal materials seemed to be able to cure all diseases. Before this, no one had said they wanted to buy a bag to taste it.
However, although they couldn't procure it, it was especially comfortable to drink right now.
The team member watched the person in charge drink it in small sips, looking exceptionally cherished, and at this moment, he didn't hesitate anymore, hurriedly took out his own cup, and followed by taking a sip.
Mmm, mmm, mmm!
!
He widened his eyes; it was really comfortable.
The person in charge had drunk his fill, and only then did he start chatting.
"I have seen the backend of Song Tan's Taotao Treasure shop with the keeper; don't say, high-quality agricultural products are really not worried about sales now!"
The person in charge gestured, still not having faded from that shock:
"Their family's cooling tea bag, which is 20 yuan for a large pot, is already considered cheap. You don't know, the tea leaf bag I saw was 50 yuan per gram!
"Just this sales volume, I don't know how many hundreds of thousands have been earned just from this price..."
As he spoke, he felt both regretful and relieved:
"Luckily they don't sell it now..."
Otherwise, he was really afraid he wouldn't be able to control himself!
And 50 yuan per gram... truly made the team member stunned. At this moment, looking at the tea pot in his hand, he suddenly felt a sense of taking advantage...
The two stood at the table chatting, drinking a pot of water until only the bottom remained. Only then did they feel their stomachs bloated, and then hurriedly added boiling water again.
When other team members came over and habitually picked up the water pot—
"Eh, why is it still hot?"
Because of the look of the teammates looking at the sucker, Zhu Xin didn't sleep at noon, and at this moment, watching time pass second by second, he simply climbed up, sat on the stool in the dormitory, and waited quietly.
Waiting for what?
Waiting for the aroma of the tea eggs to come out!
And tea eggs will never disappoint anyone who likes them. It was just past one o'clock, and wisps of aroma drifted from the canteen.
At first, it wasn't rich, just there or not, making people drool in their dreams.
And as time passed second by second, the aroma became richer after the tea eggs absorbed the flavor.
Their general canteen was very close to the dormitory, and this cold cement brick couldn't block the rich braised fragrance that permeated everywhere, but this time was exactly the good moment for the team members who often trained to sleep soundly!
Zhu Xin sat in the room happily, watching someone in the dormitory start talking in their sleep, and even start smacking their lips; his heart was so refreshed!
After thinking about it, he simply tiptoed out of the room and headed straight for the canteen—
At noon, there was no one in the canteen, only a pot of pitch-black tea eggs boiling in the rice cooker on the side. Of course, it was fortunate that there was no one, otherwise, these tea eggs might not have lasted until noon!
Zhu Xin fished one out, rinsed it with cold water, and couldn't wait to peel it. He originally planned to take this to the dormitory to tempt that group of people, but he couldn't help it and ate one himself first.
And as for this second one...
