Because Lu Yu rated Gu Zhu Purple Bamboo Shoots as the best tea, the price of Gu Zhu Purple Bamboo Shoots has remained high, and it was even designated as tribute tea, making it unavailable for ordinary people to drink.

During the troubled times of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, there was no such thing as tribute tea.

However, the yield of first-class Guzhu purple bamboo shoots is extremely low because the Southern Tang Dynasty blocked the road from Huainan to the Central Plains.

If Gu Zhu Zisun wanted to reach the Central Plains, he had to go up the Yangtze River to Jiangling, then go north through Jingxiang and enter the Central Plains, making a long circle.

The price is therefore prohibitively high.

At the same time, there are many elegant people in the south, and Gu Zhu Zisun has no worries about sales. There are few tea merchants willing to transport tea in a large circle to the Central Plains.

Even Li Jixun just paid a lot of money to buy some from Jiangnan to taste it.

Li Jixun looked at the celadon tea cauldron in his arms, and then at Gu Zhu's purple bamboo shoots.

His depression and all that disappeared in an instant, and he couldn't help but think to himself: "It's rare for Brother Shi to be reliable. Luo Tongjun is indeed a good friend."

He looked at Yu Wei who was running errands and said, "Go back and tell the commander-in-chief about his feelings. I'll make a note of it." After saying that, he asked the housekeeper to give Yu Wei fifty Zhou Yuan Tongbao as money for running errands.

Li Jixun happily returned to the house and handed Gu Zhu's purple bamboo shoots to the housekeeper for him to store safely.

He personally wiped the celadon teapot clean bit by bit, and then carefully enshrined it.

Li Jixun has decided to pass this celadon teapot from generation to generation, treating it as a heirloom of the Li family.

In fact, Lu Yu's tea art relied on his strength rather than the utensils. He was not rich, and the tea sets he used were popular goods. It was impossible for him to have any precious tea sets handed down to the world.

But this thing passed through Luo Youdu's hand and relied on the blessing of his fame.
