Chapter 163 - 163 Can’t Compare (2)
“Huh? Chairman Ye, do you know how to make tea?” Liu Haikang widened his eyes and asked in surprise.
The others also had looks of disbelief.
Ye Xuan didn’t say anything and just smiled. He turned to look at the attendant and said, “Can I trouble you to give me a set of tea brewing tools? You should have a preserved jade spring here, right? Help me heat the water to 83 degrees. Thank you.”
Once an expert made a move, the truth would be revealed.
When everyone heard Ye Xuan’s skillful tone, they knew that he must know this well.
Da Hong Pao was the king of tea. It was a type of oolong tea that was most compatible with the water from a jade spring.
The tea set was quickly brought over. Ye Xuan skillfully carried out every step. His movements were elegant and carried the aura of a master.
He moved very quickly. As soon as the orange-red tea was poured into the bowl, the steam brought with it an extremely rich fragrance.
“It smells so good!”
Not only did Liu Haikang and the others smell this fragrance, but even the other guests in the distance smelled the fragrance of tea.
Ye Xuan’s movements were not affected by everyone’s exclamations. His actions were light and fast. Then, everyone had a cup filled with bright red tea in front of them.
Just by looking at the color of the tea, one could tell how good Ye Xuan’s tea brewing skills were.
One had to know that if one wanted to brew Da Hong Pao tea, the first time they brewed tea, it had to be hot and fast.
If the temperature was not high enough, the color of the tea could not be released.
If one dragged on the brewing for too long, not only would the dust be swept away, but the fragrance of the tea leaves would also disappear.
To grasp the time and temperature well was not something a newbie could do.
However, Ye Xuan was like a tea master. One didn’t feel his urgency, but everything was done at an extremely fast speed.
Everyone picked up their teacups piously and took a sip.
A rich fragrance spread between their lips and teeth. When the fragrant tea entered their stomachs, it ignited the heat in their bodies like a flame.
After taking a sip of tea, they simply felt extremely comfortable.
“Isn’t this tea too fragrant? I almost swallowed my tongue!”
“I really don’t like tea very much! But I love this taste!”
“I’ve been lucky enough to drink the Da Hong Pao from the Wuyi Mountains a few times, but this is the best I’ve ever drunk!”
Everyone crazily praised Ye Xuan’s brewing skills. This cup of tea was amazing!
The customers at the side could smell the fragrance and hear the evaluation. They were so hungry that they were about to drool.
They discussed this softly with the people around them, but because of Ye Xuan’s noble status, no one dared to come over and ask for a cup of tea.
The few of them drank tea for a while more before Liu Haikang finally took out the small box with the seal and pushed it in front of Ye Xuan. He said, “Chairman Ye, this is the seal we made for you. I hope you can accept it.”
Ye Xuan was stunned for a moment before smiling. “You’re too polite.”
As Liu Haikang spoke, he had already opened the box, revealing the seal made of violet jade.
At the side, Liu Yanran’s eyes simply widened when she saw this.
Wasn’t the color of this seal too beautiful?
The color of the violet jade was the purest at its core.
The purple was pure and elegant. There was also a hint of nobility.
Moreover, it was obvious that this workmanship was very meticulous. The design of the dragon head on it was very unique. It looked majestic and indescribably mighty.
It was not necessarily a rare thing, but it was very hard to come across.
Liu Yanran couldn’t help but exclaim, “President Liu is really considerate! Young Master, I think you should accept it! After all, this seal is engraved and belongs to you.”
Liu Yun also advised from the side, “That’s right, Brother Ye. This is made of the jade you pointed out to me last time. Don’t decline.”
Ye Xuan smiled in embarrassment and explained, “Actually, I got someone to carve seals too.”
Liu Haikang and the others were stunned.
Had their arrangements clashed?
Just as they were about to ask, they heard a voice that sounded like an orchid in an empty valley behind them. “Mr. Ye, you’ve really made me look for you!”
The corners of Ye Xuan’s lips curled up slightly. He didn’t need to turn around to know that Lin Zhixi had arrived.
Speak of the devil!
He turned around and saw Lin Zhixi looking at him with a smile. There was a man behind her, and the man was holding a large box in his arms.
“As the old saying goes, one can’t be particular about people behind their backs. I was just talking about you when you came over.” Ye Xuan smiled and invited Lin Zhixi to sit down.
Lin Zhixi blinked and teased, “Mr. Ye, are you saying bad things about me?”
As Lin Zhixi spoke, she called the man to place the box on the table. “Look, do you want to inspect the goods in person, or do you want to study them slowly when you get home?”
She didn’t open the box immediately.
After all, this was a teahouse. There were not many people inside, but there were still quite a few people.
It was better to show such a top-grade thing to fewer people.
After all, how many people would go crazy over a top-grade glass-type imperial jade?!
Ye Xuan knew that Lin Zhixi was concerned about him, but he didn’t care and said directly, “Open it. It’s a good opportunity for everyone to see the Jade Seal Pavilion’s skills.”
The Jade Seal Pavilion?
...
Hearing this name, Liu Haikang’s pupils could not help but constrict.
Jade Seal Pavilion was a famous existence among seal shops. As expected of Chairman Ye. He chose the best shop!
He had contacted Jade Seal Pavilion before, but one of the masters that Liu Haikang liked didn’t have time for the time being, so he switched to another shop.
