Master Zhang was a skinny man, one of the reasons why tea didn't get fat over a long period of time. In her opinion, it was mostly because he couldn't keep his body from being roasted in front of the stove for a long time.

The man who had lit the fire had not yet arrived. He was the one who was watching the fire in the kitchen. He checked the stove and told them about the mission.

"So many!" Didn't you say that it will weigh more than a hundred catties? "

This was the first time in the factory that such a large amount of food was being used.

"Temporary increase. If he sent it to the capital, there would probably be more. "Now it's time for us to show you our skills. All of you better keep your spirits up." Master Zhang said with his eyes half closed.

"Of course." Chun Hua continued, "Teacher, then wouldn't our batch of tea leaves be worth a few dozen yuan in salary?!"

It was quite expensive, as a catty could be sold for dozens of dollars. Even a generous person would buy it for hundreds of dollars a catty. That was why the wages of the workers weren't low either.

"Of course."

With Teacher Zhang's affirmation, not only was Chunhua happy, but even Rinperan was beaming with joy.

As they spoke, the tea was sent over. It was a fresh tea that had been passed through the hands, with only a single leaf in the core, and each leaf was like this. When the tea leaves were soaked out, the buds seemed to have been reborn in the water, slowly standing up and extending until they looked like their original forms.

After trying out the temperature of the pot, Lin Pelan's first pot of tea added a little more and became less conservative by a lot. After all, it had been a long time since she had used these top-grade tea leaves.

After the first pot of tea was made, the morale of the soldiers was reassured. Master Zhang went back to his usual low voice and started to cook his own tea. He did not forget to observe the movements of Lin Peilan and Chun Hua and kept scolding.

That scolding was really scolding without a shred of mercy. When Chun Hua started learning craftsmanship, he was scolded and cried a few times. Lin Pelan's perception was good, thus she was spared a lot of scolding.

Everyone tried their best to stir-fry the tea leaves in the pot in front of them. From time to time, they could hear the sound of sweat dripping onto the stove.

There was no way to stop this. If it wasn't for the fact that he needed to use up a lot of water to replenish it, he wouldn't even have the time to drink it and would instead have to go to the toilet.

It was not until midnight when the three packs of tea arrived and a packet of it was only 60 catties of raw tea did he finally catch his breath.

Ringpelin hurried to the bathroom and came back to find that the midnight snack had arrived. Today, it was actually a luxurious dish of squid noodle soup. It looked very good, not like something cooked in a big pot, but more like a small stove.

"Eat quickly and continue working. This is something that the factory has agreed to open, and it's only for the three of us. "

As expected, it was not a big pot of midnight snack, so Master Zhang quickly answered their questions.

"Alright."

"I always thought that the factory's cafeteria was filled with that kind of cooking. I never thought that this small stove would have a completely different taste!"

The midnight snack was on a table in the corner of the workshop.

"It's fine as long as you have something to eat. Don't say too much after you leave this workshop. "No matter who you meet, you have to bite the bullet and say it's the same as everyone else."

Master Zhang's words succeeded in dispelling Lin Peran's desire to go out for a midnight snack and to take a breather and blow the night wind.

The midnight snack was delicious, there was probably something fishy going on here!

"Understood, Master. Even if you beat him to death, you can't say it."

"That's right." After putting down the bowl of noodles, he said in a serious tone, "Bangwan came to find me. He said that he wanted to know the amount of tea that would be served this time. All of you have eaten one hundred and fifty catties of noodles, and all three hundred and fifty catties of noodles."

Lin Pilan and Chun Hua were both stunned. They didn't know why Master Zhang would tell them such a secretive matter.

"You are also my favorite disciples. With these skills of scenting tea, you are all highly regarded people. I won't hide these things from you guys. When this batch of goods goes out, everyone will get a hundred yuan in wages. Forty plain ones, sixty no one can tell. "Remember that."

Master Zhang's earnest and earnest words did not bring much joy to his face. Even the one hundred yuan of wages did not bring any joy to everyone.

This time, the personnel in the factory had changed. Some things seemed different from before.

On the other side, Chun Hua was still quietly asking Master Zhang questions. Lin Pei Lan didn't say anything. After drinking so much tea and roasting it for a long time, she didn't have any appetite. However, in order to persevere, she still forced herself to eat more.

Eating people with soft mouths and taking their hands was a waste. The money that was forced into their hands was very scalding to the touch.

During the second half of the night, when he was still fast asleep, Chun Hua was scolded twice by Master Zhang because he was taking a nap. Even someone as restrained as Ringpelin had his wrist burned several times by the pot's edge, so he didn't dare to be sloppy anymore.

It could be said that it was a burning night, and the first step of the three bags of tea was finally completed. The next step, the scenting of the tea leaves and the six other steps, were the most important steps.

There were temporary dormitories in the factory, and Rinceland couldn't go home, but he could sleep in the dormitories for three hours before continuing.

He had been kneading tea all night, and now that he had stopped, his hands didn't seem to be his own. A hundred and twenty catties of fresh tea was only about twenty catties.

When he passed by Lin Yuxiang and the others' workshop, he realized that they had not finished their work yet. He could hear the supervisor speaking loudly from afar.

In recent years, there had been more people planting tea in the mountains. The raw tea was not limited to those teahouses. The tea plants were harvested in the next year, as they were the most profitable crops.

It was now the fifth year of intensive support for farmers' farming, and the second year of tea farming. No wonder it was still going on the next morning, compared with the fact that they had been able to stop working for the better part of the previous year.

Lin Yuxiang was quick to see. When she saw Lin Pei-lan's figure, she immediately called for her.

"Sister Peran!" Are you done!? "

"You can rest for three hours before continuing."

"Then hurry up and rest. I won't finish here until around 8 PM."

"Alright!" "Be careful. Tell me when you get home."

"Sure!"

Lin Pei Lan had no choice but to rest. According to Master Zhang's information yesterday, they didn't just keep the jasmine and tea leaves to themselves today. That one hundred and fifty catties' worth of empty space was probably waiting for the ordinary people in the workshop to come back before they could continue during the day.

He went to the cafeteria to get a steamed bun and a bowl of congee and pickled vegetables, then put them in the lunchbox and brought them back to the dormitory to eat.

His hands were so sore that he wanted to take a bath. He couldn't even carry water. In the end, he could only use the tap water to wash his hands and feet. Then, he went back to his dorm to clean himself.

He had covered himself in sweat the entire night, and the amount of sweat he had accumulated was no less than his work.

The dormitory was a large empty room. Before, it had been used as a warehouse, but now that everyone was in charge of their own farm work, the factory was no longer efficient and had set up an iron frame bed of the upper and lower class.
