Chapter 166: Opening the Mountain Goods Market! Holy Shit

The thought made him eager to try it out. He immediately hopped on his scooter and headed for the office center. Once back in his office, he boiled some water, washed his tea set, and then carefully opened the bamboo tube, practically counting out the tea leaves one by one.

Normally, he didn’t care how many tea leaves he used, but he couldn’t bear to waste a single extra leaf of this particular tea.

Lin Muxue happened to walk into the office with a document. Seeing Zhang Lin’s actions, she couldn’t help but tease him, “President Zhang, since when are you so stingy when making tea?”

Zhang Lin just smiled and said, “With tea that costs two million a pound, who wouldn’t be?”

“Two million??” Lin Muxue was stunned for a moment, opening her mouth but not knowing what to say.

‘Was she being naive?’

‘Did tea that costs two million a pound really exist?’

‘Was it made of gold?’

‘And what’s more, her boss was actually brewing it.’

‘No way. I have to try a cup of this, just to broaden my horizons.’

She watched with curiosity as her boss picked out a few tea leaves, placed them in the teapot, and poured boiling water over them.

The very next moment, an expression of disbelief appeared on her pretty face. As the boiling water touched the leaves, an incredibly rich aroma wafted out, filling the entire office.

The aroma truly caught Lin Muxue’s attention. As she inhaled it, she felt a refreshing and revitalizing sensation, and her mind felt much clearer.

She had drunk plenty of tea in her life, but she had never smelled such a magical aroma.

Zhang Lin also smelled the aroma and felt that same refreshing and revitalizing effect.

It was absolutely incredible.

No wonder it had a +2 rating.

‘Even without drinking it, just having the aroma around would put anyone in the perfect state for work, completely refreshed and clear-headed.’

Once the pot of tea was brewed, he poured a cup for himself, then one for Lin Muxue, before eagerly picking up his cup to try the two-million-a-pound tea.

This time, it wasn’t just the aroma. As the first sip went down his throat, an indescribable flavor emerged. It started as bittersweet, then bloomed into an endlessly sweet and fragrant aftertaste. It was so good it made him want to close his eyes and savor the moment. It was as if this simple tea contained a profound philosophy, capable of elevating the very soul.

Lin Muxue also experienced that wondrous aftertaste.

‘Now she believed it was two million a pound. Besides, it didn’t seem like her boss needed to put on this kind of act.’

‘It really is worthy of being called two-million-a-pound tea.’

To think she’d one day get to drink tea this expensive. “President Zhang, this tea really is delicious.”

Zhang Lin smiled and said, “Muxue, this tea isn’t just delicious. It can also prevent cancer.”

Hearing this, Lin Muxue joked, “President Zhang, why don’t you just say drinking this tea can make you immortal?”

Even as she said that, she had already taken out her phone, recorded a video of the teapot, and posted it to her Friends Circle. She wasn’t usually the type to show off, but some things you just couldn’t help but flex.

Caption: My young boss’s two-million-a-pound tea! I hear it can prevent cancer.

Obviously, even though she said she didn’t believe the tea could prevent cancer, Friends Circle was made for moments like this!

The post on her Friends Circle immediately started getting a lot of likes, but the first comment left her utterly exasperated.

Sister: Sis, I broke up with my boyfriend. I suddenly want to be your boss’s wife!

She was truly at a loss for words when it came to her little sister.

After finishing his cup, while Zhang Lin was still marveling at how magical the tea was, his eyes suddenly shot toward the game screen in his mind in surprise.

A red exclamation mark had suddenly appeared over the Bamboo Maze, flashing urgently.

This meant an event was occurring in the Bamboo Maze. The next moment, a game system notification popped up.

When he saw the contents of the event notification, he couldn’t help but exclaim in shock, “Holy shit!”
