Chapter 425: Fighting over a cup of tea

He was so angry that he turned around and was about to leave, but he wanted to see how he would pay the price for his arrogance today!

He thought about it and sat back in his chair with anger in his heart. Zhao Jing saw that he was not leaving again, so he sat on the chair, put his feet on the table, and said something sarcastic!

"So Captain Zhang is just that stubborn? But I won't buy you tea today!"

Hearing this, Zhang Bing smiled smugly and said to the waiter, "Give me a cup of buckwheat tea, it's too expensive and I'm poor!"

When the waiter who was serving tea heard this, he thought the two people were having a bad temper, so he walked over to try to persuade them with a smile.

"Sir, look at this buckwheat tea. It's very cheap, only three cents a cup. It's not the best tea."

"For a noble person like you, you should try some more precious teas. Bitter buckwheat may not be able to support your noble body!"

The waiter saw that the tea he had served was about to be replaced by a customer. Thinking that this tea was very expensive, he was afraid that he would not be able to sell it and be fined by the store!

As he put the tea on the tea table, he continued to brag to Zhang Bing, "This Imperial Longjing tea is not expensive and has a strong tea aroma. This tea is more suitable for your status, right?"

When Zhang Bing heard what the waiter said, he looked at him with an awkward grin and muttered softly.

"Damn it, Longjing tea is not expensive before the rain? Whose cup of tea costs two thousand taels of gold? You call this not expensive?"

"Tsk, look at your behavior?"

When Zhao Jing saw that he couldn't even afford a bottle of Imperial Longjing tea, he glanced coldly at the waiter, his eyes full of disdain and contempt.

The corners of his mouth rose slightly, and he looked at Zhang Bing and snorted sarcastically.

"Humph, some people are only worthy of drinking three cents of bitter buckwheat, unlike me who wants to drink tea today and drink Longjing before the rain."

As he said that, he looked at the waiter and said to him with a smug look on his face, "Waiter, you are wrong. People want to drink bitter buckwheat tea, but you insist that they drink Yuqian Longjing. And you ignore the pain of us drinking Yuqian Longjing?"

"Hey, sir, what are you talking about?"

When the waiter heard Zhao Jing's unfriendly tone, he obviously didn't expect that he would be so serious about a cup of tea!

His face instantly became a little flustered, but he continued to speak with a smile.

"Oh my, I don't dare to have any other intentions. I just think that with your status and position, it is really unfair for you to drink the cheap tea grown before the rain!"

Seeing Zhao Jing being so brave but not wise, he lowered his head, chuckled, and wanted to kill him!

When Zhao Jing heard this, he became even more furious. He stood up suddenly and pointed at the waiter's nose and cursed.

"You are such a dog-eyed jerk! How dare you say that the tea I drink is cheap?"

Hearing him say this, Zhao Jing felt embarrassed in front of the yamen runners!

He was so angry that he grabbed the waiter by the collar and yelled, "I really don't know how the owner of your teahouse hired people? He actually hired a guy like you who has no sense to work here?"

The guests who were listening to the storyteller in the teahouse looked over when they heard Zhao Jing's noise.

The waiter saw the gazes of those upstairs and downstairs who were watching the show, and was afraid that the store owner would see him and get angry!

He was angered by Zhao Jing's merciless scolding, so he put away the smile on his face, straightened his back and retorted!

"Of course, you said that three cents of buckwheat tea was cheap and that people like us don't deserve to drink it. What's wrong with three cents of tea?"

"Besides, for poor people like us, even if we drink tea worth one penny, it is hard-earned money!"

"If you say that three cents of tea is cheap, does that mean that we should classify tea into different grades?"
