Just a moment ago, County Magistrate Bai had tasted the very first versions of iced black tea and iced green tea. In his past life, Hou Yong had rarely consumed either beverage, though he vaguely remembered that the green tea variety contained honey and tasted remarkably bland. Seized by a sudden inspiration, he had decided to create a proper iced green tea and instructed the two professors to experiment by adding a touch of mint to green tea. Unexpectedly, the resulting flavor turned out quite pleasant.
"Boss Hou, these are the newly developed iced black tea and iced green tea. Each comes in five different flavors for you to sample."
Professor Li took several small plastic containers from his bag. Judging solely by their outward appearance, one could barely tell the difference between the black tea and the green tea. Both professors were shrewd individuals; back at the university, they would naturally address Hou Yong as "Student Hou," but out in the real world—bolstered by the five thousand yuan in research funding Hou Yong had allocated to their project—their attitude toward him was exceptionally courteous.
