[Reconstructing the Pre-Ming Dragon Well Tea. System decomposition in progress, decomposition complete. System screening and optimizing the molecules, selection and optimization complete. Reconstruction in progress, reconstruction complete. Congratulations on obtaining one kilogram of top-grade Dragon Well Tea from the 18 tea trees in the Imperial Tea Garden!]
As the system notification sounded, the tea tin in Lin Yi's hand clearly became lighter, followed by another increase in weight.
When Lin Yi looked into the tin again, he discovered that the originally full can of tea leaves had still become more than half.
"Uh, 1.5 kilograms became 1 kilogram?? System, aren't these all tea leaves? Why did it become less?"
[The system's decomposition and reconstruction will remove unnecessary impurities and replenish insufficient molecules. 1 kilogram of top-grade Imperial Garden Dragon Well Tea is the product made after the system's replenishment. If you only rely on the tea leaves provided by the Master, you can at most obtain 250 grams.]
Oh, now that he heard the system's words, he had benefited greatly.
However, after thinking about it, he understood. Wasn't it the same for the two special cold medicines that were broken down and reconstructed for the first time? It only produced two capsules from a bunch of pills. After all, what was condensed was the essence.
He placed the tea tin back on the desk and reached for his phone to open the web page to search.
In his impression, he seemed to have heard that this Imperial Garden Longjing was quite valuable, but he did not know how valuable it was.
As Lin Yi entered the Imperial Dragon Well in the search engine, a large pile of information immediately appeared. He casually opened one and looked at it. Lin Yi could not help but shake his head, "Damn, it's a waste of my chance to decompose and reconstruct. It's only worth $100,000."
On the screen, it was written, "In 2020, the price of a good Pre-Ming Dragon Well Tea is about $50,000 per 0.5 kilograms."
Shaking his head helplessly, he closed this message and clicked on the next one. However, the originally helpless expression on his face suddenly disappeared, and then his face was filled with shock.
"Damn, so it's not $100,000?"
It turned out that this message was much more comprehensive than the previous one:
"In 2020, the price of Pre-Ming Dragon Well Tea Leaves was about $50,000 per 0.5 kilograms. These are not the 18 best trees. The most expensive thing is the top-grade Imperial Dragon Well produced by the 18 trees in the Imperial Garden!"
There were 18 trees, and on average, each tree picked 400 sprouts. The 18 trees picked a total of 7,200 sprouts. They could produce about 2 taels of tea a year! Therefore, the true Imperial Dragon Well was priceless.
Moreover, in 2014, under protection, the country had already forbidden the harvesting of those 18 trees. This also caused the price of the Imperial Dragon Well on the market to rise to a sky-high price.
According to reliable information, in 2018, the Beijing Auction House once auctioned one tael of the Imperial Dragon Well for 2.7 million! From then on, there was no news of the Imperial Dragon Well being auctioned anymore.
Seeing this, Lin Yi was completely speechless.
Not to mention the current price, just according to the price of the auction in 2018, one tael was 2.7 million. Then, wouldn't a kilogram reach 54 million!!!
With this in mind, Lin Yi's eyes were filled with stars when he looked at the large tin in front of him.
Good lord, this was a huge profit! It could be said that he had profited greatly this time!
He reached out and grabbed a small handful of tea leaves. He used the light in the room to carefully observe them, but after looking at them for a long time, Lin Yi could not see what was good about them.
He casually threw a few into his mouth. Just these few pieces cost at least a thousand dollars.
As the tea entered his mouth, he immediately felt a bitter taste.
"Tsk, tsk. This is too bitter."
After spitting the few tea leaves in his mouth into the trash can, Lin Yi threw all the tea leaves in his hand back into the tea barrel and did not study this thing anymore.
To be honest, Lin Yi felt that this thing was no different from his father's $400 a tin of tea.
To say that it was different, the fragrance in his mouth was probably different after spitting out the tea leaves.
However, if this scene was seen by those who loved tea, they would probably rush over and beat up Lin Yi. This was simply a waste of treasure!
…
The next morning, Lin Yi was still sleeping when Father Lin walked in.
However, when he saw that his son was sleeping soundly, he did not wake Lin Yi up. After smiling and shaking his head, he walked to his son's desk and wanted to take the large pile of porcelain fragments to the office.
However, after arriving at the table, Father Lin was immediately stunned. He could not help but mutter,
"What's going on? This kid categorized it himself? Eh? He even left a note? In 2018, Jingde Town burned a small bowl fragment with lotus patterns?? Heh heh, kid, you only know how to play tricks."
After casually putting down the note, Father Lin smiled and shook his head before starting to put the porcelain pieces on the table.
As for the content of the note, Father Lin naturally did not take it seriously and treated it as if Lin Yi had written it casually. After all, no matter how impressive an expert was, it was impossible to determine the exact year of production with a fragment.
Perhaps because he had slept too late last night, Father Lin's actions did not wake Lin Yi up.
After sorting the porcelain pieces, he saw that he had forgotten his tea tin, so he took it out.
Walking out of her son's bedroom, Empress Dowager Ye happened to walk out of the kitchen with a spatula.
"Is the brat still sleeping? Oh, right, Old Lin, didn't you buy a tin of tea leaves yesterday? Where is it? I want to cook a pot of tea eggs."
He originally thought that his wife was cooking in the kitchen so he wanted to put the box in his hand on the electric scooter in the basement, but he did not expect that she would directly appear in front of him.
Immediately, Father Lin was shocked. When he heard his wife say that she wanted his tea leaves, he hurriedly took them out of the box and handed them over without thinking.
If it was in the past, he would not be willing to part with these expensive tea leaves to cook tea eggs, but it was different now.
If his wife saw him studying porcelain with his son, he would probably not have a good life in the future.
"Here, here. I brought it in when I was chatting with my son last night. Didn't I just take it out? I'll help this brat take the old books he packed to the basement."
Looking at the cardboard box in her husband's hand, Empress Dowager Ye glared at him.
"This bastard kid, the college entrance examination is only tomorrow. He can't wait to throw away the books? He's a good-for-nothing! Alright, give me the tea leaves. When it's done, bring a few to the office to eat."
After saying that, she grabbed the tea tin in Father Lin's hand and went to the kitchen.
It was not until Empress Dowager Ye's figure disappeared from the kitchen that Father Lin heaved a long sigh of relief. He did not dare to stay any longer and carried the box downstairs.
