The Charismatic Charlie Wade
Chapter 5480
As Jimmy’s condition gradually improved, Nirina and Maria embarked on a drive to Poole, nestled in the southern province.
This city, christened after the tea it holds dear, boasts a history spanning over a millennium. It’s not merely a post station along the ancient tea-horse road but also a significant hub for producing Pu-erh tea.
When Maria left Dali, she carried her parents’ ashes with her, finding their final resting place in Poole. It had been more than three centuries since Maria last set foot here, and the city’s former appearance eluded her memory.
According to her recollection, she had ferried her parents’ ashes from Dali, and when they were buried in Poole, she discreetly selected a feng shui spot for their graves. There were no coffins or gravestones, she had left them bare.
Locating two columbariums from over three centuries ago seemed a near-impossible task. Thankfully, Maria recalled that her parents lay beneath a tea-covered hill known as Erlang Mountain.
What’s more, she distinctly remembered interring the ashes beneath the largest, most opulent Pu’er tea tree on that very mountain.
Oddly, the current map offered no trace of Mount Erlang within the Poole area.
Nirina maneuvered the car into Poole, where he and Maria enlisted the aid of a few local historians. After thorough probing, they unearthed that indeed, a mountain named Erlang Mountain once existed on the outskirts of Poole. Yet, it had undergone numerous name changes over the past decades.
One shift occurred during the Republic of China era, followed by another after liberation. The 1960s saw a name change driven by political movements, and in the late 1970s, another was made after those movements subsided.
More than two decades ago, the last renaming took place, christening it Celestial Mountain.
This shift was triggered by the sale of the entire tea-producing area to a company from the southern province. The rebranding paved the way for Celestial Mountain to evolve into their flagship tea garden.
Today, Celestial Group’s tea gained acclaim both domestically and internationally, specializing in medium to high-end Pu’er tea cakes. Their Cloud series, originating from Celestial Mountain, stood as the pinnacle product, often priced at no less than 10,000 dollars per piece.
Armed with knowledge about Erlang Mountain’s current state, Nirina found Celestial Mountain’s location on his GPS. Having developed it for over two decades, the road infrastructure proved sound, and they reached the mountain’s base from the city in just 40 minutes.
Having not returned to China for several years, Maria’s apprehension about Erlang Mountain’s possible deterioration was palpable. The sight of Celestial Mountain put her at ease, for the landscape hadn’t altered in three centuries.
