If the Liao people take risks...

After all, as long as the creditor is killed, there will be no debt.

Right?

Note: According to records, Beiyuan in the Northern Song Dynasty had extremely strict requirements and standards for growing, picking, and making tea.

Moreover, there are dedicated officers and soldiers to supervise.

Just like picking tea, tea pickers need to set off as soon as the fifth watch arrives and stop picking before sunrise.

The emperor even issued working standards specifically for tea-picking and tea-making workers. For example, in the second year of Zhidao, Emperor Taizong of the Song Dynasty issued an edict: From now on, only the hands and claws of the spoke towels should be washed, and new clean clothes should be given. Officials who violate the rules will be punished.

crime!

The process of making tea is strict, including more than ten processes: steaming tea, pressing tea, grinding tea, making tea, and yellowing.

In addition, top-grade tea leaves also have top-grade processes.

For example, the kind of golden two-two-one-cake tea requires a master craftsman who has been specialized in this for more than ten years, and is carefully baked over charcoal fire for more than ten days. The heat must be controlled to the last minute, and the baked tea cake will eventually turn purple.

It's considered top quality.

PS, the current tea technology of the Northern Song Dynasty is actually not abnormal. By the time of Huizong, Beiyuan's tribute tea was as good as Ru Kiln.

Not only are they required to make tea, tea-picking workers must also be kept clean at all times, and their beards and hair must also be shaved.

There are also new top-quality tea cakes such as Yuyuan Yuya, Wanshoulongya and so on. The luxury is to the extreme.
