 01、Most tea friends often say when buying tea: "Why is this tea so expensive! Do you know the origin of these teas? Do you know how hard tea farmers work?

02、Early in the morning, tea farmers ride their motorcycles to the mountain to plant tea. The motorcycles may be old, but they perform well and should not be underestimated.


03、To plant good tea, the farmers' endless days of hoeing have finally resulted in this mountainous field full of pit after pit.


04、The mountain doesn't look that high, but walking up is exhausting! The sweating tea farmers slowly make their way up the mountain. The life of planting tea can only be understood through experience, not described in words!


05、The mountain sun is really scorching. The people carrying tea can never drink enough water. Those lumps wrapped in red bags are blocks of soil, all carried on their shoulders. Could God please help us! Even sending us a bottle of water would be great!


06、Many hands make light work, but the carrying never ends. Just when these are finished, another cart arrives. Can you stop torturing us like this! The back pain is unbearable!


07、Getting old, not as useful, can only carry a few lumps. Whatever, light a cigarette and keep carrying. Even though it's only a few lumps, they are incredibly heavy. To finish planting sooner, going all out, carrying as much as possible.


08、Could it please rain? This weather is unbearably hot. Wearing a hat makes it even hotter, there's not a breath of wind, and we still have to carry this tea. "Sweating profusely" doesn't even begin to describe it now. Stop joking around, okay?


09、One, two, three. One, two, three. Carrying tea uphill, footsteps feel like a thousand pounds. Look, going downhill now, oh, not bad—wait, it's actually harder to walk. Ah, life is so difficult!


10、After carrying for half an hour, we finally reached the new tea garden. Unloading the thousand-pound burden feels much better. If I could find a small mountain stream, I'd jump in for a cool bath right away.


11、Noon, the sun is shining overhead, the flowers are smiling at me, the birds say: "Hard work!" Haha! Resting while waiting for food to be delivered up the mountain. My stomach has been growling nonstop, the "empty city strategy" has been sung countless times. When can we finally eat?


12、The kitchen crew isn't too slow. After resting for 30 minutes, we get to eat. Those delivering the food are also going all out, bringing so much food up the mountain. Thinking about it is amazing. This life is good, a free picnic, everywhere is a dining table.


13、This rice is fragrant. Eating it when hungry feels so good! Want a bowl?


14、See anything? Life is beautiful, not bad. Pork stewed with tofu, the aroma fills the whole mountain, but it's a bit too salty. Want to ask the kitchen crew, is salt free?


15、Worked hard all morning, didn't bring enough water, gotta have some soup. Pork with pickled vegetables, that sour refreshment! But still salty. Cook, are you trying to kill us with salt? Seeing this, I secretly want to ask the kitchen crew, aren't there any more elegant bowls? Amazing.


16、More appetizing under the sunlight, eating with relish. Everyone is as hungry as dogs.


17、How nice it would be to lie down for a while after eating and not have to plant more tea. The idea is beautiful, the reality is harsh. The day's tea must be planted well, delays are not good.


18、Everyone has different assignments, different tasks, working together in synergy and cooperation!


19、Each tea seedling must be planted carefully, a handful of soil, a drop of sweat, treating it like a small child. Ah, taking care of so many children in this lifetime is mentally and physically exhausting.


20、Fortunately, there's a water pipe directly reaching this tea garden, otherwise carrying water would be another shoulder ordeal.


21、The posture of the hoeing gang is so beautiful, the holes dug are so uniform.


22、They say heavy work should be done by men. Here, men and women are equal.


23、After planting this patch of tea, a sense of pride arises. Even though sunburned and peeling, it's worth it.


24、Some water, some bury the soil. Everything proceeds in an orderly manner.


25、The tea farmers' day ends like this, adding new green to this yellow earth! This tea contains the dreams of over 30 people, the sweat and blood of over 30 people, the hardships of over 30 people. For the cup of tea in your hand, we think it's worth it. The dream begins with the growth of these tea seedlings......
