Chapter 449: Top good tea (1/2)
In fact, it has been nearly four o'clock now, and Li Shifu can still rest for an hour and a half.
Xia Ruofei is really a real experience of the complicated process of hand-made tea, especially if those key processes are completed by one person, it is quite hard.
Ye Lingyun directly hit the floor in Li Zhifu's room, and Xia Ruofei returned to the car, put the rear seat down, and sleep with the clothes.
He felt as if he had just closed his eyes, and the alarm clock rang. In fact, the hours of sleep, the sleep is very shallow.
Xia Ruofei sat up with a bone and looked out through the window. The room where Li Zhifu rested had already lit the lights, and Xia Ruofei quickly pushed the door and jumped out of the car.
After more than an hour of rest, and the effect of the spiritual flower petal solution, Li Zhifu seems to be very full of spirits, and is directing Ye Lingyun to move the water screen out.
Yang Shugen had already pulled a wire in the yard and hung a large 200-watt bulb, and the yard was suddenly bright.
Xia Ruofei also went forward and saw Li Zhifu carefully review the tea green under the light. After a long time, he satisfied his place and nodded and said: ”The process of doing green is perfect! Now the tea green is already in the state of three red and seven green!”
Li Zhifu saw Xia Ruofei's confused look and explained with a smile: ”Three red and seven greens are our terminology. After the tea green has been shaken and greened, the edge of the blade will be rubbed and collided, and the damaged part will be oxidized. Dark red, and at this stage, the three-point red seven-point green is the best.”
Xia Ruofei revealed the expression of the teaching: ”Mr. Li Lao, this ancient method of tea is too much attention!”
Li Zhifu said with a smile: ”Where is this? Dahongpao has more than a dozen procedures, and every procedure has a lot of attention. If it is not Master's hands-on teaching, every day, hard work and hard training, even smart people can't learn!”
Xia Ruofei nodded and said: ”Yes! I don't know, I look at it... It's all the doorway! Mr. Li, Lingyun is following you, and I have to ask you a lot of trouble...”
”Don't worry! Since I have accepted him as an apprentice, I will do my best!” Li Zhifu said faintly. ”There are not many people who are willing to learn this traditional tea craft. I don't think it is meaningful to leave a hand. Don't go into the coffin!”
Ye Lingyun said quickly: ”Master, you are in good health! Don't say this is unlucky!”
Li Zhifu looked at Ye Lingyun's eyes with unconcealed love. He smiled kindly and said: ”Okay, don't gossip, start working!”
The next step is to stir up the green. Yang Shugen has already prepared the iron pot, but the step of firing is the fire that Li Zhifu personally does. It is definitely not a fake hand.
After the pot was hot, Li Zhifu poured the fermented tea into the wok, and then began to stir-fry.
His gestures were also very strange. Tea green flipped up and down under his stirring. The moisture of the tea leaves evaporated quickly. The fermentation process was artificially stopped. The essence of tea juice was completely preserved in this program.
Slowly, the tea green in the iron pan began to emit silk water vapor, and the temperature of the iron pan began to rise. Li Zhifu began to use two and a half moon-shaped wooden tea pots, first slightly shaking one or two, emitting parts Moisture and volatile green gas, then the double-tea simmer caught in the green leaves.
After a while, tea green can almost go out of the pot, Li Zhifu slightly shakes the tea pot, so that the tea green evenly scattered water, and after a few fry, the tea green all out of the pot.
Li Zhifu couldn't even rest in one breath, and immediately began the embarrassing process.
It is also purely handmade. The action is a bit like washing clothes. Li Zhifu pushes the fried green leaves in the sieve and pushes it back and forth until the leaf juice flows out in a large amount, and it is rolled into a strip, and it is fragrant and fragrant.
Then, Li Zhifu went to the pot to re-sauté the tea. The process was very short, about half a minute. Just flip the number and take it out again. The tea time is also shorter than the first time.
From the beginning of the green to the simmering, re-selling, and reclamation, the whole process is about half an hour.
However, the workload is still very large. Li Zhifu has not stopped for almost a moment, and he is sweating after he finishes.
Xia Ruofei quickly handed over the ”nutrition solution” that had already been prepared.
Li Zhifu took the small porcelain bottle and took a few mouthfuls to drink the solution of the spiritual flower petals inside. Then he said with a mouth: ”Root, is the baking room ready?”
”Master, get ready!” Yang Shugen said quickly.
”Start to bake water!” Li Zhifu said decisively.
”Ok!”
When he came to the baking room, Li Zhifu evenly placed the fried tea in a roasting cage made of narrow waist, and then began to make fire in the roasting cave and add charcoal.
The heat of this process is also very crucial. Li Zhifu has been doing tea for decades. The reason why he is famous for it is because the baking heat is so good that he is in the process of operation. Ye Lingyun and Yang Shugen are intent on it. Staring at it, for fear of missing a certain detail.
The charcoal in the roasting cave soon began to turn red, and Xia Ruofei could feel the heat wave in the room.
Li Zhifu carefully felt it, adjusted the position of charcoal several times, and then evenly sprinkled grass ash on it. This is also the unique skill of Li Zhifu. The temperature of the broth can be controlled by the ash, and the heat is more evenly distributed.
After several adjustments, Li Zhifu finally nodded.
Ye Lingyun and Yang Shugen worked together to lift the roasting cage and put it on the roasting cave.
The doors and windows of the whole roasting room are tightly closed, and the water can only pass through the cracks in the roof. Therefore, the house is very stuffy, but Li Zhifu still keeps the front of the roasting cage at all times, and observes the state of the tea at all times. Stired several times.
After almost fifteen to twenty minutes, the water bake was successfully completed.
After the tea was baked, Li Zhifu asked Ye Lingyun to pour the tea into the arc, and then personally used the yang to remove the yellow pieces, pieces, tea leaves and other inclusions, then spread the tea and then moved it to the outside stand. .
After personally inspecting, Li Zhifu said with a sigh of relief: ”Xiao Xia, now it takes about five hours to dry, let's go to rest!”
Xia Ruofei knew that Li Zhifu had no chance to close his eyes all night. Although there were several hours of space in the middle, the old man’s sleep was very shallow. Li Zhifu had two sleeps and said it!
He quickly said: ”Okay, Mr. Li Lao, it is really hard for you! You have to go to rest for a while!”
Xia Ruofei did not rest himself, so after he sent Li Zhifu to the door of the room, he quickly lie down in the car.
This sleep until about 11 o'clock noon, Xia Ruofei refreshed, took out the standing travel wash bag from the trunk, and went to the faucet in the yard to simply wash it.
Li Zhifu has already got up at this time. He is checking the state of the tea on the green shelf.
Xia Ruofei quickly said hello: ”Mr. Li Lao, how is the rest?”
