I have a paradise

Chapter 441-Chapter 445-Bolin Manor

"This is Pu'er from Yunnan, China. It was given to me by someone else when I went to China last time. It is said that it has been stored for 20 years. The fragrance is high and sharp and the fragrance is unique and mellow, which is very good. Come and taste it." Earl Bolin is quite familiar with Chinese tea culture.

Wang Yi did not have a taste for tea before. He likes to drink tea or dug up a few tea tree seedlings when digging treasure maps. Then he will harvest some tea leaves every time. These tea leaves taste good. It was just that the quantity was scarce, so he kept some for his parents and drank the rest by himself.

Pu'er tea is different from other teas in that it can be stored for a long time. The storage period starts from ten years. Of course, when storing Pu'er tea, you need to pay attention to it. It must be dried in a dry warehouse, so that Pu'er tea will not be moldy. The same is the warehouse temperature. It needs to be constant and not change abruptly, and to avoid odor infection, and strive to keep the storage environment clean and odorless, and avoid wind and sun.

Of course, the lifespan of Pu'er tea has not been finalized, but it is at least sixty years. It is like the Jingua tribute tea in the Forbidden City. The aging period has been one or two hundred years. Jingua tribute tea is made from Yunnan spring tea. Because of the special craftsmanship, Gongcha looks like a pumpkin, so it is called Jinggua Gongcha. This is no longer tea, but a collectible.

In 1963, the Qing Dynasty tribute tea was cleaned up by the Forbidden City in the capital. A total of more than two tons were collected, and part of it was Pu'er tea. According to the article "Pu'er Tea and the Qing Dynasty" by Mr. Wang Yufeng, Deputy Secretary-General and Senior Economist of the Chinese Tea Association "In the early 1960s, there were tons of tribute tea that the Qing Palace hadn't used up in the tea house of the Imperial Palace in the capital, including Pu'er tea, daughter tea, and tea cream.

In 1963, the Forbidden City handled more than two tons of Qing Dynasty tribute tea. On October 23, 1963, by chance, I saw these aged tribute teas at a Beijing tea factory. The big Pu'er tea was like a watermelon (slightly flat), smiling. Such as net melon, ping pong ball, brown and black, not moldy or bad, well preserved."

A few years ago, Christie’s auctioned a Jingu Gong tea from the Qing Palace collection at the autumn auction in the capital. At that time, the Jingu Gong tea weighed 5.5 kilograms and the auction price reached more than 2 million.

Of course, the Pu-erh tea he is drinking now is far inferior to the golden melon tribute tea that has become a collector's item, but it is also not bad.

After sniffing it with his nose, Wang Yi picked up the teacup and took a sip. It tasted sweet and scented.

"Sure enough, it's good tea." Wang Yi praised.

After drinking the tea, Wang Yi's eyes were suddenly attracted by the cup in his hand.This cup is light in the hand, the barrel is exquisite and thin, it looks a bit jade, and the texture is gentle, it is semi-transparent under the light.

The decoration of the cup looks very exquisite. There is also a lotus flower bud carved on it. The flower leaf pattern is slightly raised on the surface of the cup. The carved lotus flower bud is ready to bloom, delicate and natural. This is carved with sapphire. Please make it with the lotus cup.

"This is the Hendustan jade cup. It is a jade cup that combines the carving craftsmanship of Central Asia. It is also called *** jade made by the Qing Dynasty royal craftsmen. This set of tea sets are all." He explained to Wang Yi's gaze.

"Mr. Wang is also very interested in antique art collections?" Earl Bolin asked with a smile.

Wang Yi put down the sapphire tea cup in his hand, and said with a smile: “Antique artworks are actually the history of mankind. They can make us feel the greatness of mankind more than the cold words on paper. We can also pass every piece of antique art. To understand the historical and cultural information of that era."

"I have built a museum in China, which contains my personal collection, including two sunken ship treasures."

Earl Bolling is also an antique lover. In fact, these nobles all like to collect artworks to show their family's long and rich heritage.

In the collection room of the Bolin family, there are tens of thousands of British and other countries’ artworks from the family’s 800 years of age, ranging from traditional medieval furniture, decorations, tableware, and paintings to Renaissance statues, oil paintings, etc. Books, etc., including works by masters such as Raphael, Picasso, Monet, Rodin, etc., as well as Chinese porcelain, silk fabrics, stone sculptures, Danqing calligraphy and painting.

Earl Bolin took Wang Yi to visit his manor.

The area of ​​this manor is very large, more than one thousand acres, including the main building, meeting room, attendant room, golf course, hunting ground, forest, garden, and horse farm.

I have to say that the wealth accumulated by these nobles is still very impressive. If nothing else, the manor in front of me is not worth one or two billion pounds. Wang Yi had known about this Earl of Bolin before he came. The aristocracy relies on land for food. He is now the largest private electricity supplier in the UK, owns four coastal wind power stations and two natural gas power plants, and also owns a lot of shares in the British power grid, which controls a quarter of the entire UK Electricity, which also has a lot of infrastructure investment in European countries, can be called a British capital giant.

Although his combined worth is not as high as Wang Yi, his actual status as a person who controls a country's energy is much higher than Wang Yi, a fledgling young man.Of course, if Wang Yi can control part of a country's infrastructure or energy, he can also enjoy the treatment of the head of state.

It's just that this kind of thing is not something you can control if you have money. Other than that, it is like the electricity and grid facilities in the UK. If it is not for his noble status, it is difficult for him to control a quarter of the country's electricity.Just like this Hong Kong Island Lee who has always said that he is a businessman, he spent hundreds of billions of dollars on investment in the UK and invested in many basic projects in the UK, but not long ago the British government expressed its position and hoped to state public utilities in the future If this matter is confirmed, Hong Kong Island Lee’s investment is likely to be fully accepted by the British government.

Wang Yi doesn’t like this man. This man likes to earn the last copper plate in business and squeeze all the profits. He does this in many places in the country. He enjoys the preferential policies of the country, but he keeps saying I am just a businessman, and everything is normal business behavior.Now that you have enjoyed the country’s preferential policies, don’t just say that it’s just a commercial act. The benefits both inside and out are accounted for. Why are you so big-faced.
