025. Control the tea set
The way tea people talk is to use tea instead of language.
It sounds cool, but it is actually quite cruel.
The reputation that tea people have built up throughout their lives is likely to be ruined by a shaking hand when they are cooking.
During the Warring States Period, Chirikyu and Imai Sohisa were both fellow disciples of Takeno Shaoou, and they also served the Toyotomi family at the same time. Their reputations were comparable, and Imai Sohisa's qualifications were even older.
In order to identify who is the number one tea person in the world, Toyotomi decided to let the two of them perform tea ceremony in turn based on the theme of Taizi tea-tarting method.
The method of tea-making in Taizi was a method of making tea that was passed down from the Song Dynasty. The details were quite complicated, but it was authentic at that time and was the basis for all tea people to learn.
This is exactly what Imai Sect had long thoughts. He insisted on the traditional Taizi tea-making method for many years and could not be more ripe about Taizi tea-making method.
Chirikyu's tea ceremony took a different approach, insisting on his own style of tea making, and creating his own way. In fact, he did not know how to make tea in Taizi at all.
So Imai Sorhisa was secretly happy and felt that he was sure to win.
Chilikyu claimed to have to take a shower and change clothes for three days - in fact, he went to practice the method of Taizi's tea-making. Three days later, on the day of the competition, Chilikyu's tea-making movements were smooth and returned to nature, but there was only one problem - it was not the orthodox method of Taizi's tea-making.
Toyotomi Hideyoshi questioned on the spot: "I have seen Taizi's tea-making method before, which is more complicated than yours. You are not Taizi's tea-making method at all, right?"
Chirikyu replied, "Tea work is just to put the tea soup in the tea bowl, just be calm and composed. Look at my simple method of making tea in Taizi is better than the original ones?"
Perhaps because of his momentum and eloquence, Toyotomi Hideyoshi actually accepted this statement.
When Imai Sohi performed, his mentality exploded. When he ordered tea, he was thinking about Chirikyu's tea ceremony, which led to a lot of mistakes and a mess.
So after this tea party, all the disciples of Imai Soraki were sent to Chirikyu's sect, and Chirikyu became the number one tea person in the world.
The struggle between warriors is just one horizontal and one vertical; the struggle between tea and humanity is also one horizontal and one vertical. The victorious people are successful and the defeated people are in a slump.
The tea ceremony apprentice of Kikuchi Akana, the Richino family, is dangerous.
As long as Qian Linya performs poorly and spreads through her oral communication, it will become "a thousand apprentices in Zong Qianjiajiayuan entertaining Qianjia apprentices, but the apprentices pointed out their mistakes in person and lost all their faces."
If Qian Linya is in trouble, Kikuchi Aina can step on his face and step on the sign of Wuwai'an.
In fact, Qian Linya can choose to avoid the battle.
As the owner here, if he does not entertain guests, what complaints can the guests have?
But he didn't.
If you don’t accept the move once, or twice, if you continue for a long time, when will you succeed?
If you want to fight, then fight.
Qian Linya’s tea ceremony is the way to be brave and diligent.
"This tea party adopts a 'leigh-ritual style', please take your seat at Kikuchi Sang," he said with his hand.
"'Kikichi Sang'? Which Kikuchi are you referring to?" Kikuchi Aina tilted her head, and a smirk that only a 17-year-old girl could have appeared on her beautiful face.
"Madam Kikuchi Sang." Qian Linya stubbornly corrected.
"No, no, it's my husband who married into my family. He should be called 'Kikichi Husband'. How can I be called 'Kikichi Madam'?"
Although she knew that she was just a mess, Qian Linya decided to take a step back for the time being.
"Apricot Naisan."
The Kikuchi Mari's face suddenly turned red, and she looked at Qian Linya with her eyes, wanting him to call her that too.
But she had already taken the seat, and Qian Linya ignored her at all.
After Kikuchi Aina and Chiruya were sitting opposite him, they sat in the seat and sat on the side of Chiruya, while Kikuchi Mari sat directly opposite him.
Refresh the cup and set tea.
This time, he covered the lid of the longevity tea and took out another can of "Qingxin" tea.
He didn't want to use such precious longevity tea to entertain uninvited guests.
"Well, it smells so good!" Kikuchi Anna sighed.
Kikuchi Mari said: "It's a different fragrance from the moment."
"Yes, because this time it's a different tea."
As soon as they opened the tea lid, the two of them exclaimed. The fragrance of Qingxin Tea seemed to be more intense than that of Longevity Tea.
Qian Linya lowered his head and focused on tea. The tea powder was lying in Jianzhan, looking very cute.
Kikuchi Aina finally saw the tea bowl in Qian Linya's hand. After she looked at it for a while, she couldn't help but ask, "Is this Jianzhan?"
"That's right."
"Why have I never seen such textures and shapes?"
"Because I just instructed the craftsman to do it." Qian Linya said calmly.
Kikuchi Aina took a deep breath and said, "Teacher Zhao Youzhai is young, can he guide Jianzhan's production?"
"Where is the skilled craftsman in China, I only put forward some ideas."
"I heard that Jianzhan is an idiom in Tianmu tea bowl. This time I saw the real thing and found it so shocking. It was really..." Kikuchi Aina's expression was completely different from the beginning. "What is the name of this tea bowl?"
"This thing is called Jianzhan Yaobian Tianmu and Shura. This is its first time to be there for guests." Qian Linya said in a gentle tone.
Looking at his expression, you will remind you of lines like "The tea set is the friend of the tea man!" such as passionate men offering animations.
Mari Kikuchi was confused when he heard this, and finally couldn't help but ask, "Is there anything special about this tea bowl? ... And, its name is so difficult to pronounce, does it have any special meaning?"
This time the answer was not Chi Linya, but Kikuchi Mari's mother:
"Jianzhan Yaobian Tianmu·Shuyu, each part of the name has a special meaning. Jianzhan refers to the teacup made by the 'Jian kiln'; Yaobian is the supreme glaze color in the Jianzhan. Only in an extremely accidental firing environment can a Yaobian change color be produced; Tianzhan refers to China, indicating that the teacup comes from China."
Kikuchi Mari asked, "Why does Tianmu refer to China?"
Kikuchi Aina stopped talking, her big eyes staring at Mari, as if she shouldn't have asked such a stupid question.
"Tianmu refers to Tianmu Mountain," Qian Linya, who was standing by, continued, "During the Warring States Period, most of the tea utensils sent to Japan from the large and small magnetic kilns of Tianmu Mountain. Over time, 'Tianmu' became a tea set, specifically referring to Chinese tea sets."
Kikuchi Aina smiled brilliantly: "So that's the case. This is the first time I know this. Teacher Zhao Youzhai is really knowledgeable!"
On the side, Kikuchi Mari rolled her eyes quietly, and she almost thought that she was asking a stupid question.
However, it is really strange that my mother doesn't know.
While taking tea, Qian Linya continued, "'Sudden Rain' is the name I gave it temporarily. Today's sudden rain is also a fate, otherwise we would not have the chance to sit together. In addition, isn't the texture of this tea bowl also very much like a sudden rain?"
Kikuchi Aina nodded repeatedly, looking very appreciating Qian Linya's naming taste: "Yes."
After a while, she leaned over and whispered to Qianmengye: "Mengye Jiang, do you know how much the price can be auctioned for this 'storm'?"
Qian Mengye didn't expect that she would be talked about and shook her head repeatedly.
"I tell you, you can sell at least 15 million yen!"
"15 million!" Meng Ye and Mali almost jumped up.
Mari covered her mouth and felt unbelievable: Did she drink tea with something worth 15 million yen just now?!
From just now to now, even though this tea bowl is dazzling, it is just an ordinary utensil in Qian Linya's hands.
But when they knew the price of the tea bowl, their eyes when they looked at Qian Linya again became different.
As a tea man, Qian Linya is controlling tea sets, but not being controlled by expensive tea sets.
The value of 15 million yen was transformed into a simple container in his hands, and through his hands and his tea, he expressed his way in the dark.
He put the tea bowl on the table and gently pushed it towards Kikuchi Aina.
"Please use it."
Kikuchi Aina picked up the tea bowl in a complicated mood and said, "Teacher Zhaoyouzhai, you should have seen that I am from Osaka and I am very straightforward. I will tell you what I have. When I heard them report the trends of Mali, I knew that her classmate was you. This time I came to drink your tea this time, not just for the sake of tea, but for the sake of the current Jiayuan of the Sochi family."
"Oh, then what do you think I have?" Qian Linya's face showed an interesting smile.
