Lu Feng

"I think... Boss Lu's tea eggs, I'm afraid they aren't ordinary tea eggs."

Zhu Chang stroked his chin, wearing an expression of seeing through everything, and said with a very certain tone.

Although he didn't understand tea, just now one sniff of that rich tea fragrance made him feel it was out of the ordinary.

Now seeing Grandpa Qin and the others so excited, he felt even more certain his guess was right.

"Did you need to say it? Look at those old men's heartbroken appearance, anyone could guess it, right?"

The diner sitting next to Zhu Chang heard this, curled his lip and rolled his eyes: "When has Grandpa Qin ever been this excited? If the tea eggs were ordinary, could he be this heartbroken?"

"These tea eggs don't look like much, they're no different from ordinary tea eggs, but smelling them they are quite fragrant."

A young diner sniffed the tea egg aroma permeating the hall, scratched his head and said with some confusion.

Most of the diners in the hall were young people, usually they drank either bottled beverages or instant coffee.

Among them, people who liked drinking tea were already few, and those who understood tea were even fewer.

Hearing that young diner's words, they all nodded in agreement.

"Yeah, they smell quite fragrant, but what's so special about that?"

"Isn't tea very cheap? Last time I went home and bought a can for my dad it was less than a hundred yuan, is it worth making such a fuss?"

Rather, there were a few older ones, regular diners who usually drank more tea, who at this moment were all frowning.

Just now when that tea fragrance drifted from the kitchen, they felt it was a bit familiar, but for a moment they couldn't identify it.

A few had hesitant eyes, as if they had thought of something.

But seeing Grandpa Qin and the others who clearly seemed to understand more, they all didn't speak up.

The chattering discussion voices in the hall grew louder and louder, but this did not affect Zhao Zhenhui's observation.

He bent his waist, nose leaning close to the tea egg and carefully sniffed once.

At first his brows were slightly furrowed, then his eyes slowly widened, his face revealing an incredulous expression.

After a full half minute, he then sucked in a breath of cold air, and slowly straightened his body.

Turning around to look at Lu Feng at the kitchen door, he asked with a face full of shock: "Boss Lu, the tea you used couldn't be... authentic Qimen Black Tea, right?"

"From this tea fragrance, I also smell some honey aroma and floral aroma, the grade is not low... I guess Boss Lu you used at least special grade... no, it must be Tribute Tea grade, right?"

Lu Feng did not deny it, smiling and nodding.

Once these words came out, the hall went quiet for a few seconds.

Just now those few old diners who were frowning and still somewhat uncertain, all widened their eyes.

"Xiao Zhao, you tell me, is this kid wasting heaven's gifts?"

Grandpa Qin pointed at Lu Feng angrily, his tone full of heartache: "Such good tea, even I can't buy it when I want to drink it, he actually uses it to boil tea eggs, it infuriates me!"

Those old diners in the hall who understood tea, at this moment all felt their fists getting itchy.

They could also understand why the usually calm Grandpa Qin would suddenly get so angry.

Not to mention Grandpa Qin.

Even Zhao Zhenhui right now wanted to rush over, grab Lu Feng by the collar and ask him what exactly he was thinking.

This Qimen Black Tea is no ordinary tea, not only domestically, even internationally it belongs to famous high-end black tea.

At the dining table next to Grandpa Qin and the others, a young diner still had a confused face, couldn't help muttering softly: "Is Qimen Black Tea very expensive? My dad drinks it at home too, seems like it's only a few dozen yuan per catty..."

Zhao Zhenhui heard this, couldn't help shaking his head, took a deep breath and said: "Brother, Qimen Black Tea has cheap kinds, but Tribute Tea grade is completely different from ordinary, it's made from the most tender spring tea buds, production is extremely scarce, one catty is at least ten thousand yuan, and it has price but no market, even with money you can't buy it."

His voice wasn't loud, but everyone in the hall heard it.

The young diners all took out their mobile phones, searching for Qimen Tribute Tea prices on the web.

"Grandpa Qin, only using good tea can boil the most delicious tea eggs."

Lu Feng's face wore a faint smile, and he said very seriously to Grandpa Qin.

"Xiao Lu, do you still have this tea?"

Zhao Jian Hua suddenly stood up, and said loudly to Lu Feng: "No matter how much you have left, I'll buy it all!"

This Qimen Tribute Tea he usually couldn't buy even through many connections, now seeing it at Lu Feng's, his eyes shone frighteningly bright.

"You step aside, I haven't spoken yet!"

Grandpa Qin unwilling to show weakness, also shouted loudly: "Sell to me! Hand over all your remaining tea leaves! The best Qimen Tribute Tea on the market is about two thousand five hundred per tael, I'll offer two thousand five hundred!"

Grandpa Qin also loved tea leaves very much, his house collected quite a few precious teas from various places.

For this kind of precious black tea that has price but no market on the market at Lu Feng's, opening the price was also not soft-handed.

"Old Qin, your house already has so many good teas, this time let me have it... Xiao Lu, I'll add two hundred more, two thousand seven hundred!"

Zhao Jian Hua's eyes were red, his voice raised several degrees.

"Old Zhao, you let me have this Qimen Tribute Tea, whatever you fancy from my house's teas just take! I'll offer three thousand!"

Grandpa Qin had not the slightest intention of letting go, following closely and raising the price again.

Their current offers had already exceeded the market price.

But because this tea is too scarce on the market, it belongs to things that even with money you can't buy.

Meeting people who truly want it, the price going up several more times is very normal.

Hearing Grandpa Qin and the two of them scrambling to bid, even those diners who didn't understand tea now knew just how un-ordinary Lu Feng's tea eggs were.

"Convinced, convinced! Tea eggs boiled with top-grade black tea, only at Boss Lu's can you eat them!"

"My god! Two thousand five hundred per tael of tea leaves? A catty is twenty-five thousand! And it's used to make tea eggs?"

"Putting it that way, I suddenly feel... these tea eggs at eighty-eight a portion seem a bit cheap?"

"Just a bit cheap? I estimate at least another zero needs to be added!"

"My dear mother... using such good tea leaves to make tea eggs, I feel my heart aches!"

"Me too... I'm really curious what these tea eggs taste like, no, I have to get a portion to taste!"

"I've lived this long and never tasted what top-grade black tea tastes like, today I finally caught up with it, I have to get a portion no matter what!"

"Me too!"

The diners queuing behind came to their senses, finally understanding why these tea eggs sold for eighty-eight a portion.

Tea eggs made from top-grade Qimen Tribute Tea, when would there normally be a chance to eat them?

Eighty-eight a portion? Simply too cheap, okay?

The diners ordering next almost all chose the tea eggs without hesitation.

For a time, the tea eggs that no one asked about just now became a hot item.

Hu Xiaoyun behind the counter had also been stunned just now, until the diners behind shouted for tea eggs one after another, only then did she come back to her senses, quickly lowering her head to continue taking orders at top speed.
