There’re big and high mountain around this street, so the passengers will normally become thirty, when they passed Jin’s house, they would go in and ask for a cup of tea.
This is a generous couple. But year by year, they have picked all their tea to make drink for passes.
An immoral was deeply touched by their good deeds. He came into Jin Long’s dream, and tells him, “ I know u are lack of tea tree now, go and find it in the garden 6 miles east town.”
When wake up, Jin followed his dream, and really finds a big tea tree there. He picked some and made a cup of tea---how wonderful it is! The tea made by this tea tree was so good beyond words.
Jin remove that tree to his garden, and it grows so good that Jin have enough tea to make water for passes-by. Soon this was heared by the emperor, when he drank that water, he knew he found the best tea in the world, and gave the honor of “gong cha”.
