Chapter 1500 - 1500
Excellent view, unique scenery, great place, great study.
Can you enjoy it without privilege?
The Xiang family is the heaven of the South, the king of the South...
Even the seating arrangement in this study is quite particular, with most seats facing south, symbolizing something? Hehe...
Xiang Wenhua invited Liu Zhizhong to sit down and personally brewed the exquisite Southern Country Dahongpao. It truly is too precious a tea, not something that ordinary people can drink, and even some big shots in Tiandu want to drink it, but if the Xiang family doesn't give it, they can't have it.
Because the tea tree for Southern Country Dahongpao is unique, the most authentic one is right in the old courtyard of the Xiang family, it's their personal property.
Those non-authentic Dahongpao teas are actually clones of this old tea tree, but the tea leaves grown elsewhere just don't have the refreshing and authentic taste of the old tea tree!
Once you drink this tea, it is truly refreshing and subtle, with a dense and delicate sensation, extremely wonderful, causing Liu Zhizhong to be greatly impressed.
Even more interesting, the tea brewed from Dahongpao is a mysterious Golden Red Blood, really distinctive. The clone tea leaves are also red, but not as pure and rich as this Golden Red Blood.
Xiang Wenhua revealed the origins of this Dahongpao, further opening Liu Zhizhong's eyes.
"Drinking such precious tea and accompanying such an elegant old fellow is an honor for me!"
"Haha... let's not mention these polite words. Are your pair of Giant Green Fish doing well now? Hehe..."
Liu Zhizhong quickly expressed gratitude once again, stating that the pair of Giant Green Fish are still well, but he lost a fishing rod recently!
Xiang Wenhua curiously asked, "Dragged away again by the fish?"
"Yes! Might have been a Giant Green Fish weighing tens of pounds! Eventually, the fishing rod emerged from the water, and when I tried to reel it in, the rod snapped."
Xiang Wenhua was quite regretful as well, "Alas, what a pity... I'll give you a good rod next time!"
"Haha, that's not necessary. I've paired up a new rod, imported from Japan, it's very handy, can handle two to three hundred pounds, haha..."
"Oh? Really? That's quite nice then..."
"It really can, cost quite a sum..."
"..."
The two continued drinking tea and conversing, delving into the reason Xiang Wenhua invited Liu Zhizhong this time.
Xiang Wenhua mentioned that he indeed has to attend the funeral of the Bai family's grandmother, and also Princess's wedding. And he has some connections with Princess's brother, whom he hasn't seen for two years, and they agreed to have a meal in Tiandu.
However, over the past year or two, Xiang Wenhua encountered many dangers. Though the security has been enhanced, the issues weren't very severe.
Especially after practicing shooting with Liu Zhizhong, he encountered danger three times, losing several bodyguards, but ultimately turning peril into safety.
Such matters, Xiang Wenhua can't alarm various parties, only deal with them secretly. Why not alarm them? Can anyone understand?
That's because if reconnaissance forces get involved, the news would leak, which is unfavorable to the Xiang family. At least, in terms of influence, it would cause a decline, openly and secretly some in the South wouldn't respect the Xiang family. Not only in the South, families from other places might look down upon the Xiang family, affecting their business and trade.
Just the other day, Xiang Wenhua suddenly received a very strange warning letter, pondering endlessly...
