Chapter 1190 - 1120: Only... But... (Requesting Monthly Tickets)
"Pour another glass of water."
Huang Qiangmin entered the office and gulped down Jiang Yuan’s tea.
Jiang Yuan got up to refill his water, then smiled and said, "Drink slowly, or you’ll feel uncomfortable later."
Huang Qiangmin looked weary and didn’t speak initially; he unbuttoned his collar before taking a few deep breaths and said, "I left early at four-thirty in the morning to catch a flight. They only served a glass of water and the meal was so salty..."
Jiang Yuan listened to his complaints with a chuckle and got up to light a stick of incense.
Miao Ruixiang instinctively made a gesture of respect, then turned silently to brew a separate cup of tea for Huang Qiangmin.
"Is this Tieguanyin? It’s quite tasty. Isn’t there a lot of pesticide residue in Tieguanyin?" Huang Qiangmin began to recover a bit, swirling the cup as he started to nitpick.
"This is grown by an old man in the village. His daughter got married on the other side and set up a special hillside there. Each time she picks tea, she brings some back to the village..." Jiang Yuan also signaled Miao Ruixiang to brew him a new cup.
In the eyes of tea drinkers, large tea brewing isn’t high-end but it’s convenient. Moreover, police offices aren’t suitable for having tea tables or similar setups. Historically, people have always criticized civil servants who leisurely brew tea regardless of the reason when seen by the public.
Huang Qiangmin drank another half cup of tea before saying, "It’s settled; we’ll handle the expenses over in Luo Jin City, and Dai Mingsheng will deal with us directly."
