Are you ready to eat melons?
Today I want to break the news for you with a shocking melon!
Imagine a small piece of tea that can be sold for a sky-high price of 5 million pounds!
This is not a science fiction movie, but a true story that happened in our Wuyi Mountain.
This kind of tea called "Da Hong Pao" is simply the "Hermes" of the tea industry!
But don't be envious, there's a complex story of protection, inheritance, hype and regulation behind this.
Speaking of the sky-high price of Da Hong Pao, it is really a "stock speculation" drama in the tea industry!
Let's take a look at the crazy performance at this auction site.
In 1998, the Wuyi Mountain Dahongpao Tea Culture Festival staged a good show.
20 grams of tea was auctioned at a high price of 156,800 yuan!
What is this concept? It's equivalent to buying a luxury car at that time!
But this is just an appetizer, and the value of tea is still rising wildly.
The auction in Hong Kong in December 2004 took a more dramatic turn.
The same tea soared to 166,000 Hong Kong dollars!
Oh my God, is this tea a stimulant? It's going up too fast!
But the best of all the officials is still to come!
In April 2005, the Shanghai International Tea Culture Festival staged an earth-shattering show.
The price of 20 grams of Da Hong Pao tea was refreshed again, reaching 198,000 yuan.
This is simply the "stock king" in the tea industry, rising more fiercely than Moutai!
But the most jaw-dropping thing is what happened at the Red Robe Festival in Wuyi Mountain in the same year.
There is a local tycoon from Singapore who spends thousands of dollars and is arrogant.
He won the 20 grams of tea at a sky-high price of 208,000 yuan.
Calculated that this is a pound of tea for 5.2 million!
Oh my god, this is a mountain of tea piled up with money!
Did this Singapore tycoon drink too much? Is this tea set with diamonds?
But then again, these auctions really made Da Hong Pao tea famous.
It's like becoming a superstar overnight, shining so brightly that you can't open your eyes.
But have you ever wondered why anyone would be willing to spend so much money on tea?
Is it really that good? Or is there another reason?
Actually, there are a lot of reasons behind this, so let's gossip about it.
First of all, Dahongpao tea is indeed scarce, and the yield is frighteningly low.
It's as rare as a panda, and it's really hard to drink it.
Secondly, its historical and cultural value is very high, and it can be said that it is a "national treasure" in tea.
Coupled with the hype of some merchants, the price has been pushed to such an outrageous height.
To be honest, I think these buyers may have drunk too much to spend so much money on tea.
But then again, this kind of crazy auction did make Da Hong Pao famous.
It has become a legend in the tea world, just like the "Messi" of the tea industry.
But I think it's really worth spending so much money on tea?
Isn't drinking tea just to taste life and relax?
Engaging in such extravagance has lost the original intention of drinking tea.
However, this crazy auction did make Da Hong Pao famous and became a legend in the tea industry.
These auction sites are simply the "Spring Festival Gala" of the tea industry, which is wonderful.
Every auction is like a thrilling "gamble".
Buyers waved signs in their hands, and prices were refreshed again and again.
The atmosphere was suffocatingly tense, as if the air was filled with the smell of tea and money.
Every time the auctioneer dropped the hammer, the scene would erupt in exclamations and applause.
This kind of scene is even more exciting than watching a movie!
But to be honest, seeing these sky-high prices of tea, my heart is still a little sour.
After all, for ordinary people like us, it may be more difficult to drink a sip of the real Da Hong Pao than to win the lottery.
But then again, this kind of crazy auction has also made more people know Da Hong Pao.
It is no longer just a type of tea, but a cultural symbol.
Each auction is like showing the charm of Chinese tea culture to the world.
Speaking of Da Hong Pao becoming a "national treasure" in the tea industry, there is a wonderful history!
Are you ready? We're going back in time now!
Legend has it that a long, long time ago, there was a scholar who was going to the capital to take the exam.
This benevolent brother was as tired as a salted fish on the road, and suddenly fell ill.
Just when he felt that he was about to confess on the way, a miracle happened!
An old monk passed by, saw this poor baby, and saved him without saying a word.
This old monk is not an ordinary person, he is a master on Wuyi Mountain.
He made a bowl of tea for the scholar, which is called a fragrant fragrance, which is simply the "Hermes" of tea!
After the scholar drank this bowl of tea, he immediately felt like he had eaten a stimulant, and he was alive!
What kind of fairy thing is this tea? Can you come back to life with full health after drinking?
Later, this scholar won the top prize in high school, but he was very happy.
In order to thank the old monk for saving his life, he specially returned to Wuyi Mountain to thank him.
This champion is not an ungrateful person, and he also brought this magical tea to the capital.
Unexpectedly, this tea has made another contribution in the capital!
When the queen was sick, the champion used this tea to treat the queen.
You know what? The queen will be cured after drinking tea! This is simply the "miracle doctor" of the tea industry!
The emperor was overjoyed when he heard it, this tea is simply a national treasure!
Without saying a word, the emperor sent someone to drape the red official uniform on the tea tree.
This drape is amazing, and the tea tree seems to have been blessed by fairy energy.
The buds and leaves of the tea tree actually shimmer a little red in the sun, which is beautiful!
Some people say that it is dyed red by a red robe, but I think this tea tree is shy, right?
Since then, this tea has been called "Da Hong Pao"! It's simply the "aristocracy" of the tea industry!
Seriously, after listening to this story, I want to go to Wuyi Mountain to find this magical tea!
However, the reality may not be as magical as the legend, but the preciousness of the big red robe is real.
Did you know? There are only 3 and 6 Dahongpao mother trees in the world!
These tea trees are like the "giant pandas" of the tea industry, which are extremely rare!
They grow in the Jiulong Cave Scenic Area of Wuyi Mountain, which is simply the "paradise" of tea.
These trees are of the "old man" level, and they are said to have lived for 360 years!
Think of these trees before the founding of the United States! It's a living fossil!
It is precisely because of this scarcity that Da Hong Pao tea has become a royal tribute.
Its value is like a rocket, soaring all the way.
But this precious tea also faces great challenges.
Do you think that when the tree is so old, the yield can be high? It's just an "advanced maternal age"!
In order to protect these "national treasure" tea trees, in 2006 the Wuyishan municipal government also issued a policy of stopping harvesting and retaining them.
This policy can frighten the tea farmers, isn't it going to cut off their financial routes?
But when you think about it, it's a wise decision.
After all, only by protecting these precious tea trees can more people have the opportunity to understand and appreciate this tea culture.
But this also means that the real mother tree, Da Hong Pao tea, will become more scarce and expensive.
Alas, it seems that we ordinary people can only drink the authentic big red robe in our dreams!
But then again, this scarcity also makes the big red robe more attractive.
It's like a "limited edition" in the tea world, and each piece is worth a fortune.
It's amazing to think that you can feel hundreds of years of history with a sip of tea!
Although we may not be able to drink the real Da Hong Pao, its legend has fascinated us deeply.
This is not only a kind of tea, but also a kind of culture and a kind of inheritance.
Each piece of Dahongpao tea carries the history and culture of Wuyi Mountain.
It's like a time capsule that brings the story of hundreds of years ago to the present.
Speaking of the preciousness of Da Hong Pao, you must be curious, how is such a precious tea tree protected?
Tea friends, let's talk about the "bodyguards" of the Dahongpao Mother Tree!
That's right, these precious tea trees have special "bodyguards" to guard!
Imagine that in the 30s of the 20th century, the whole country was worried about filling their stomachs.
But Wuyi Mountain sent soldiers to guard a few tea trees 24 hours a day, and this battle was simply amazing!
More grand than the protection of national treasures, is this tea tree a refinement?
I bet those soldiers must have been depressed, guarding the tea and not being able to drink it, isn't that greedy?
After the founding of New China, the task of protection was handed over to the monks of Tianxin Temple.
I guess these monks must be very fond of drinking tea, otherwise how could they take on this important task?
Imagine the monks wearing robes and holding Buddhist beads around the tea trees, the picture is so beautiful that I dare not look at it!
Later, the People's Liberation Army came, and the task of guarding the tea tree changed hands again.
I can imagine the old men going around a few tea trees, it's so funny!
In the end, the burden fell to the local tea farmers.
To be honest, I think it's most appropriate for tea farmers to protect the tea trees.
After all, they know much more about tea trees than those big men.
Tea farmers look at the tea trees as if they were their own children, how warm!
Besides, the livelihood of tea farmers is also closely related to these tea trees, and they will definitely take care of them.
But human protection alone is not enough, and scientists are not idle.
Since the 1960s, they have been studying how to breed Da Hong Pao tea trees.
Experts from the Tea Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of Agricultural Sciences and the Fujian Provincial Tea Research Institute have worked hard.
These scientists are simply the "Edison" of the tea industry, racking their brains for the tea plant.
From 1962 to 1982, these scientists were groping and experimenting.
In the past 20 years, the persistence of these scientists is even deeper than love!
I think these scientists are the real "tea addicts", and they have been researching for a tea tree for 20 years, which is too good!
In 1985, an expert succeeded on his private plantation.
He cultivated the Dahongpao plant, which is simply a major breakthrough in the tea industry!
If I were that expert, I would definitely have to celebrate and soak in a pot of freshly cultivated Da Hong Pao, which is beautiful!
But despite the success of scientists, there is one thing to remember.
That is, no matter how advanced the technology is, the value of those century-old mother trees is irreplaceable.
After all, the value of history and culture cannot be replicated with cloning.
It's like you can copy a famous painting, but you can never replicate the soul of the painter.
Therefore, to protect these tea trees, not only for the sake of tea, but also for the protection of our cultural heritage.
Think of how proud it would be for our descendants to see these ancient tea trees hundreds of years from now!
These tea trees are like witnesses of time, silently recording the changes of history.
Each piece of tea carries a story of hundreds of years, and this weight is not light!
Now, whenever I take a sip of good tea, I think of the people who silently guard the tea trees.
From soldiers to monks, from the People's Liberation Army to tea farmers to scientists, everyone is working hard to preserve this cultural heritage.
It makes me feel that drinking tea is not only about tasting tea, but also about tasting history and culture.
Every sip of tea is a tribute to those who have been guardian and an aftertaste of history.
