………☆………☆…………☆……………☆……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

All members in Hualong Group seem to be a little busier than before...

"Old Liu, is there no problem?" Hua Changqing, known as "China Dragon", supported his desk with both hands and asked Dr. Liu Qiang, who was holding a colored magazine in one hand and crossed his legs, and said that he had no usual calmness in his words.

"Ah?" Liu Qiang glanced at Hua Changqing, put down the magazine in his hand and said, "Don't worry, brother, go to Xiao Liu to confirm whether there is any trouble with him!"

"It's really okay? This time there are more than 50 million players in the world!" Hua Changqing turned around and asked.

When Liu Qiang heard this, he stood up and said, "I said it's okay. This server has been hard work for more than 300 other experts. Not to mention 50 million, even if people from all over the world play games, there will never be any problems. Are you so unconfident in me?"

Seeing that Old Liu began to lose his temper, Hua Changqing seemed to seem particularly relaxed: "Of course not, I'll leave now, it won't prevent you from appreciating your magazine!" After saying that, he turned around and closed the door. There was already a young man with a sword-eyed eyebrows and starry eyes outside the door, and the extraordinary young man was standing there.

"Boss, I'll just eat again! I said, although the old man is not a good thing, the server is indeed as awesome as he said, so don't worry!" Qing Young smiled.

"Actually, I believe it from the bottom of my heart. After all, I saw it born with my own eyes, but the shareholders were afraid that their money would be wasted. They were really a group of stupid guys!" Hua Changqing whispered: "By the way, Xiao Liu, I decided to temporarily distribute game helmets in advance. Is there any problem with the production of helmets? Is it possible to strive for the next batch of helmets to exceed 100 million, and I'm going to have a meeting!"

"Although it's a bit difficult, it's guaranteed to complete the task!" Xiao Liu responded firmly.

Hua Changqing nodded in praise and turned around and left.

Xiao Liu's real name is Liu Wending. He is only 26 years old this year. He is the chief planner of the "life and death" market operation of Hualong Group. He has achieved this at such a young age. The outside world has many suspicions about him. Perhaps because there are too many statements, he doesn't know how this person developed.

Putting down the phone in my hand, I let out a secret breath, and I didn’t expect that things would come so quickly!

It turned out that Lu Yun went back yesterday and honestly explained the matter with her father Lu Nong. What surprised me was that when Lu Nong knew that I was just a living-making person at the bottom of society, he did not show any emotions. He just asked me to meet at a time-honored teahouse in the old Beijing Hutong now.

My father-in-law invited me. Although I was a little confused, I had to give it a promise on time!

Putting on the set of clothes Lu Yun chose for me (declares that this is my only set of clothes that can be played on the scene), I looked in the mirror and felt pretty good.

Fortunately, it has not been very hot these days, and I don’t know what material it is made of windbreaker. It is very light, very thin, very light... thin? Otherwise, I would definitely be drowned by my sweat when wearing a windbreaker!

I transferred several times, and it was a bus, a subway, a taxi plus a three-wheeler...

After a bumpy journey, I finally arrived at the teahouse called by my father-in-law. Many middle-aged and elderly people with extraordinary appearances were savoring various tea dishes at a table. Some were talking in a low voice, while some were addicted to the battle situation in chess. Huang Lao and Xu Lao in the Sword Garden were obviously also among them.

It seems that there are few people like me in this kind of place, which can be seen from the receptionist's stunnedness.

"Sir, are you here to find someone or..."

"Which floor is Mr. Lu Nong Lu?"

"Oh, you are Mr. Xu, right? Mr. Lu is waiting for you in the fourth room of Tianzi on the third floor. Please come here!"

"Wait a minute, I'll say hello to my two friends!"

He walked to the two old men who were chatting and laughing, and owed his lower body and said, "You two old men are fine!"

"Xiao Xu, I haven't seen each other for a few days, and my momentum has improved again!" Old Huang looked at me in surprise.

Mr. Xu also looked at me in surprise and said, "Zhongqi is much better than a few days earlier. Xiao Xu, it's a fate to meet him. Sit down and have a cup of tea?"

"I won't disturb you today. I came to such an elegant place in accordance with the promise. When I saw two elders here, I came to greet you!"

"Oh, I'm talking too, why did you come to the dull place where we old men came!" Mr. Huang smiled heartily and said.

"Old man, don't say that. This kind of place is a place where we juniors look up to but cannot understand the artistic conception. If we don't have something to do, we will definitely gather with the two elders!"

Mr. Liu chuckled: "Xiao Xu, there will be a chance. Since it is a promise, it is not good to be late. Go quickly!"

Under the guidance of the receptionist, I found the wing room opened by Lu Nong.

Lu Nong, who is nearly 60 years old, has no inch and a half long and short, and her black and white hair is standing upright with no hair wax. The focused expression on her face shows her steady charm. She is wearing a long and wide cotton shirt, and the linen color pattern of the shirt is very compatible with her hair. At this time, the tea scent enveloped Lu Nong on the cross-legged seat like a fog, like a sitting old monk.

I stood by respectfully for a while. Lu Nong prepared the tea and covered the lid of the pot before speaking: "Mr. Xu, I have asked you to wait for a long time, please!"

I followed the direction of Lu Nong's left hand and sat cross-legged opposite him. I didn't know what to say.

I thought that no matter when, etiquette should not be missed. It was already rude to sit down before the ceremony, but it was not too late to repair the siege.

He hurriedly owed Lu Nong and said, "I have met Mr. Lu!"

"Haha, there is no need to be restrained. This place should not be used as a meeting place, but I have always liked quietness, so please don't mind!" Lu Nong said.

Do I mind me? But I can't say this. Maybe it was what Lu Nong said that affected me. I smiled relaxedly and said, "Mr. Lu is so serious. Although I don't come to such places often, I am also a good tea person."

"Oh?" Lu Nong looked at me questioningly.

"Indeed, not many young people are willing to drink tea nowadays, and very few are willing to taste tea. Although they cannot be compared with tea ceremony masters like you, I still know a little about 'tea'!"

"It's too good to talk about your understanding of the tea ceremony." Lu Nong showed great interest. It seemed that he was indeed a good tea person.

"Then I will tell you what I think about the tea ceremony. Please forgive me for showing off my apology." After a pause, I said, "There are good and bad tea, but the good and bad of ancient tea is still worth mentioning. Moreover, my economy is not good and good, so I haven't tasted good tea a few times. Now I will talk about the way people drink tea. What do you think?"

"Why is it worth mentioning that the quality of the tea is no longer worth mentioning?" Lu Nong looked at me in confusion.

"Now, our country produces tea in the world, but does our country's real ecological tea garden still exist? All the so-called precious tea leaves are just grown in greenhouses, and have completely lost their most sincere and simple original taste. The boundary between good and bad is very faint!"

Lu Nong nodded and said, "Then tell me what you think about the way people drink tea!"

"The village workers in the mountains eat tea, the common people in the market drink tea, the upper class sip tea, and the friends in the tea taste tea. Drinking tea and siping tea is to quench thirst and serve as a treat for guests, but they are not mentioned. There should not be many people who know about "eating tea", but it is worth mentioning. Everyone knows that tea has bitter taste but has extra poison, so soaking it in dry water can refresh the spirit and condense the energy. For thousands of years, people have tasted tea, not tea, and in some remote villages, farmers have the habit of drinking tea and chewing tea, so "eating tea" is also called "chewing tea". It is bitter in the mouth, but after chewing it into the stomach, the saliva secretes like nectar, and swallowing it like jade.

Although this kind of tea ceremony is vulgar, it is the ultimate artistic conception of tea tasting." I paused and saw Lu Nong closing his eyes and thinking slightly, without any intention of intercourse, I had to continue saying: "With the continuous rise of social civilization, the tea culture that should have been deeply rooted in thousands of families has become a high-spirited culture. In the past two or three hundred years, it has been difficult for people who pursue tea ceremony to see their youth. Why? It is nothing more than tasting tea is like tasting life. Only people with certain life experience can truly use 'taste' to know the meaning of tea and use 'taste' to know life. These are the kid's words, which makes the gentleman laugh!"

Lu Nong opened his eyes, but did not speak. There was only a faint tea fragrance in the air. I knew the tea had been cooked, so I used skillful techniques to put out the bottom of the pot and poured the two tea cups into the tea.

"I never thought, I really thought that there are people in the world who have such unusual insights into tea ceremony. Seeing your method of pouring tea just now, it can be seen that you also have the habit of tasting tea on weekdays." Lu Nong sighed.

"Actually, I just know a little bit about the tea ceremony. This is what I have learned when I was always with my great-grandfather. Although I have the habit of drinking tea in daily life, it is just because tea helps to think and reminds me of my great-grandfather and my childhood time."

Lu Nong shook his head and said, "You are too humble. Although the way of "eating tea" you just talked about is difficult to reach the elegant hall, I have to admit that this is the way of tea tasting, which has changed my view on tea ceremony a lot. Let's try this way of "eating tea". How about it?"

"It's rare that Mr. Lu is interested in this superficial method. Please accompany him!"

When I took out the soaked tea from the pot and saw the tea that was soaked like a mud, I sighed in disappointment.

"What's wrong? Is there something wrong with the tea?"

"Yeah!" I nodded: "This is why I say that the quality of today's tea is not worth mentioning. Today's famous teas are like Longjing, and Maojian and other streams are processed through special processes and then soaked in high-temperature water. The leaf veins have been completely damaged, and the leaves have no toughness at all, and are no longer suitable for chewing!"

Lu Nong's face dimmed: "I didn't expect that such a simple tea ceremony would have no chance with me, Lu Nong..."

"Mr. Lu, if you don't dislike it, you can go to the snail residence and get some handmade coarse tea brought by my fellow villagers. Although the tea looks not very good, it will definitely allow you to taste the taste of "tea"!" I couldn't bear to see Lu Nong so disappointed, so I invited.

Lu Nong glanced at me deeply, then stood up and said, "Okay, Xiao Xu, let's go to your place now!"

There was a show, and the name was even more intimate. I looked at him with a hurried look and said, "Old man, can I drink tea and moisten my throat before leaving?"

Lu Nong was stunned for a moment, laughed heartily and said, "Oh, look at me, I'm glad that I even forgot the minimum hospitality ceremony. Come on, let's have a drink of tea instead of wine!"

It seems that this father-in-law has a good impression of me!

After going downstairs with Lu Nong, Mr. Huang and Mr. Xu had already left. Just after leaving the teahouse, two big men in purple suits over 1.8 meters tall were already waiting there: "Boss!"

Lu Nong said, "You guys go back first, I'll go somewhere else!"

One of them said, "Boss, this..."

"Don't worry, this is China, this is Beijing!" A sonorous voice showed absolute trust in the capital. Standing in Lunong's deep state, I couldn't help but feel how tall the old man's back was in front of me.

"You guys go back, Xiao Xu and I will go somewhere else, don't discourage my interest!" After saying that, he turned around and said to me, "Xiao Xu, lead the way!"

"Old man, I'm quite far away from here, go out and call a taxi!" Seeing that Lu Nong didn't want the people around me to follow, I had to follow his wishes.

When Lu Nong heard this, he looked at me with interest and asked, "It's very far away? How did you come here?"

He said a little embarrassedly: "In order to save money, I first took the bus, then took the subway several times, and then took the taxi. Because the vehicles here cannot come close, I had to call a rickshaw. But I knew that the teahouse was not far from the intersection..."

"I felt sorry for wasting ten yuan, right? Haha, I had this experience more than 20 years ago. Lead the way and go to your place according to the route you just mentioned!"
