"That's... quite reasonable."
Shinomiya Kaguya was also dumbfounded.
As the eldest lady of the Shinomiya family, she never had to worry about money issues, but the guy in front of her was indeed very poor.
According to the background investigation conducted by Ai Hayasaka, Kato Kato has a part-time job every day, and will change jobs every once in a while. This is indeed a person who is short of money.
Therefore, from the perspective of having no money, Kato Jue was confident and confident, without any feeling of cowardice, which made her a little dazed for a while.
"In that case, I'll call her here."
Kato Sakuya's reasons are irrefutable, and Shinomiya Kaguya is also a straightforward person, so she called the maid directly.
My eldest lady has spoken, and the maid is naturally willing to teach, but there is an embarrassing question.
In the courtyard of the Four Palaces, there is no ordinary black tea, and the tea poured out of any tea pot is a rare variety.
"Many people learn to make tea, they first pick out the rare and expensive varieties, and want to learn from the most common black tea bag. This is the first time I have seen it."
The maid named Lingzi was also quite admirable, saying that the eldest lady met a strange species.
"I've already sent someone to buy ordinary black tea bags, but during this time, Minister Kato will also learn how to make high-grade black tea?"
Shinomiya Kaguya didn't believe it anymore, could he really not learn?
"Anyway, if you have nothing to do, it's good to learn a little bit. Things like craftsmanship are interlinked. If you can get into one, you can get into ten."
Kato Jue shrugged and chose to study.
As the so-called Yiduo is not overwhelming, Shinomiya Kaguya has said so, and he can't always refuse.
"Then let Lingzi teach you, but I'm going to be a judge."
Shinomiya Kaguya decided not to give him a chance to learn from him, obviously he had endured a sense of disgust to teach him before, but in the end you gave up gently.
Kaguya Shinomiya only gave her one chance, and she never regretted giving it a second time.
So not only did she not give it, but she also laughed at his skills later.
Those who are good at making tea must be good at tasting tea. Kaguya Shinomiya is very satisfied with his black tea craftsmanship, so naturally he is very picky about the taste.
See if I don't let you experience the failure hell of life.
A rare emotion called annoyance reverberated in Miss Kaguya's mind, making her lose her usual calm.
When it comes to good black tea, the Shinomiya family will not stop there. Although the price is expensive, the consumables for practice are not a big deal. The maid skillfully took out the tea pot and explained the weight, water temperature, steps, ingredients and other details. , Kato Jue also listened very seriously, and asked some points carefully, mainly about the influence of the operation on the taste, that is, why he did this, and even asked the maid about some points, and could only express a little stiffly. did so.
In short, after a series of operations, Miss Lingzi brewed two perfect cups of black tea, one for someone to taste and one for the eldest lady.
261. Something is wrong
"Very good. As expected, it's Reiko's black tea. It seems like I haven't had it for a while. Minister Kato, I asked so many questions just now, so why don't you try it now?"
Shinomiya Kaguya took a sip and then praised, and transferred the pressure to Kato Jue by the way.
"Wait a mininute."
Kato Jue closed his eyes, showing a thoughtful expression, and then he did some manipulations, but in the eyes of the master and the servant who knew how to do this, such movements were a bit stiff.
Soon, a cup came out of the oven on his side. Someone tasted it himself, frowned, poured out the tea, and started the second attempt.
After serving the tea for the second time, Kato Kato tasted it, then nodded slightly, and put the teacup in front of Shinomiya Kaguya.
"Student Shinomiya, please advise."
Shinomiya Kaguya looked at the tea in front of him, the soup was clear and mellow, it seemed to be the same as Lingzi's, and raised his eyebrows slightly.
Among other things, this appearance is a bit passable.
"Well."
She picked it up, took a sip slowly, and prepared to use the most critical skills to find the flaws in it.
but.
The taste of this cup of tea is exactly the same as that made by Lingzi, there is absolutely nothing to criticize.
"Lingzi, try it."
Shinomiya Kaguya signaled her maid to try it too, and now she wondered if there was something wrong with her sense of taste.
Kato Kato actually prepared three cups, one for himself, one for the judges, and one for the teacher of course.
At this moment, the maid took a sip of the teacup, and she also showed surprise.
"If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes, I would have thought that I brewed this cup myself. The learning ability of this young master Kato is really amazing."
"Minister Kato's skill is really not to be underestimated. If you can learn all of Reiko's skills, you can make a living with it."
Shinomiya Kaguya praised sincerely.
Although she Shinomiya Kaguya would be unscrupulous in some matters, but in terms of standards, Shinomiya Kaguya was never ambiguous.
She is very clear that if even the standard of measurement is lost, then people's positioning of themselves will be blurred.
People who can't find their location, especially in places like the Sigong's house, can easily die without a place to bury them.
"Student Sigong's reputation is too high. It's also a coincidence that I made this cup. If I make it again, it won't be necessarily the case."
Kato Jue said calmly.
Of course he can, but Mr. Kato has no intention of making tea for others.
Supermarkets can learn about prices and shoppers, and restaurants can learn about the current situation of people who can eat out. Even if they go to the field to dig potatoes, they can understand the current situation of farmers. But making black tea, if it is not like this Like a maid Lingzi, if you are a full-time tea server in a big family, don't you want to go to a teahouse?
Wait, the teahouse seems to be quite feasible, and it is also a way, but I don’t know what the target audience of the teahouse is now, and how many things can be investigated.
Thinking about it this way, maybe you can still sell milk tea, as long as you have a good relationship with Taoism, then you can sell it no matter what.
And he also happened to have such a friend on the Tao.
Mr. Kato kept this point in mind silently, and was going to try it when he had enough time and capital.
coincidence?
What Kato Saku said seemed to be true, and Shinomiya Kaguya also thought it was very possible.
After all, when making tea, the difference in water temperature and even the difference in the height of the water will also affect the flavor. Therefore, black tea is often brewed by one person, and it all depends on each person's ability. Coincidence, not necessarily a lie.
After all, if the taste of Lingzi's black tea can be completely replicated, it means that this person has memorized all the details of the movements that Lingzi taught, and reproduced them perfectly.
Even her Shinomiya Kaguya may not be able to do this kind of thing, at least she has to brew a cup of it by herself.
Although she has made such a judgment rationally, Kaguya Shinomiya always has a faint feeling of uneasiness and something wrong in her heart, as if something is wrong with her.
At this moment, the tea bags of ordinary black tea were also delivered, so Kato Kato and Reiko learned a little more, and Shinomiya Kaguya also tasted it this time.
Lingzi's craftsmanship is very good, even this kind of very common tea can be brewed in a very good way, Kato Jue's technique is actually not bad, the learning is good, but the taste is still somewhat different.
Therefore, Shinomiya Kaguya no longer had any doubts.
"I did learn a lot today, thank you Shinomiya-san and Miss Lingzi."
After finishing his studies, Kato Jue was about to say goodbye. After thanking the two of them sincerely, he said goodbye and left.
"Where, Minister Kato's learning ability is a bit surprising."
"See you next week, Shinomiya-san, and Miss Lingzi too."
"See you next week, Minister Kato."
"Master Kato, please go slowly."
After saying goodbye, Kato Jue turned around leisurely and left without hesitation.
Shinomiya Kaguya stared at his back for a while, then turned around and went back.
She returned to the reception room and saw Ai Hayasaka cleaning up the mess.
Learning how to make tea inevitably requires a few attempts, but the residual tea from the last time is still there. Hayasaka turned his back to the door, as if he had just put down something.
"Hayasaka?"
"Miss, is Kato-san already gone?"
Ai Hayasaka turned around as if nothing had happened, and asked calmly, maintaining her maid's usual indifferent expression.
"Yes, he has already left. You pack up first, and come to my room to find me later. I need to confirm the schedule for the afternoon."
Shinomiya Kaguya waved her hand, telling the maid to finish the work at hand first.
"Yes, Miss."
The maid bowed slightly respectfully, until Shinomiya Kaguya walked out of the reception room, and then continued to turn back to deal with the mess.
"This cup, do you want to taste it?"
Hayasaka Ai looked at a certain cup with some tea left, showing a rare look of hesitation.
-------------------------------------
The last week of June is loud and restless.
Everyone seemed to realize something, and their mood gradually became agitated. This is the unique expectation of students, and it is also the welfare of teachers.
Summer vacation is one week away.
After the first class ended on Wednesday, the students became extremely restless.
No one else, because according to the usual practice, the ranking list of results should come out at this time.
No matter what kind of happy education, Xiuzhiyuan has always directly posted the list and rankings and scores directly. Every time the list is bloody, it is a fight between the top students and the gods.
Of course, Mr. Kato has nothing to do with this kind of fight. He always checks whether his score is accurate. This is also one of the joys of someone's life.
Only this time, before walking into the crowded crowd in front of the list, he vaguely heard some noisy voices, and someone mentioned his name.
Someone felt that something might be wrong, so he quickened his pace at that time.
262. nmd, wsm
Mr. Kato looked at the leaderboard blankly, and some people he knew looked at him.
nmd, wsm?
I thought that Xiuzhiyuan was the top high school in Tokyo, and the students there were some of the best students in the exam, and they should be able to easily win this kind of question that is a little more convoluted.
As a result, what does this series of more than 200 points mean?Have you learned all your lessons from dogs?Couldn't your average scores in previous years be above 490?
He was angry, puzzled, confused.
Is it true that the questions are difficult these days?Is there any reason?
Have the Japanese suddenly become honest?
Mr. Kato’s point control method is also very simple. He used to save time and directly use the classic Fibonacci sequence to control points. According to the integers such as 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, the points are accumulated and subtracted, that is, use the previous one. Subtracting the value of the corresponding series is the score of the next subject. If the full score is 100, his highest score is 100, and the lowest score is 100-1-1-2-3-5=88. Later, he found that the score is still easy to be biased. It was tall and it was noticed by someone with a heart, so someone made a little modification.
Before each exam, he first chooses a subject to fill up—usually mathematics, then throws a six-sided dice several times, and selects the first two values that are not 6 and arranges them according to their size (can be equal) as a Fibonacci The first two items in the sequence, so that the scores appear to be more random, and it will not be too good in the test, at least in those good schools, at most it is an upper-middle level.
As for why 6 is removed, it is because if the first two items are both 6, the last subject will be scored 28 points according to the algorithm, which will directly fail, which will lead to the occurrence of making up classes during holidays. Although Mr. Kato wants to control the points , but I don't want to make up lessons, so I have to rule out the risk in terms of rules.
If the first two items are both 5, then the minimum score is 30 points, just on the passing line, but Mr. Kato has never encountered such a thing.
For example, in this exam, he took 100 in the first test, and the result of throwing the dice was 2, 6, 3, and the corresponding sequence was 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, that is, he took 98 in the second test and 95 in the third. The fourth subject is 90, the fifth subject is 82, and the sixth subject is usually 69 in historical geography. This score seems to be a very reasonable student with a slightly partial subject, and the safety is naturally excellent.
Kato Kato has a reason for this. Japan’s evaluation system is a deviation value system. The highest is 100, the lowest is 25, and the average is 50. Specifically, there is a calculation formula. The deviation value of Xiuzhiyuan is as high as 77. This number is put into The whole of Japan is at the top level, that is to say, the level of the students in the school is much higher than the average level of Japan. In this way, even if he does a little bit better in the exam, he is at most above average. This kind of result is not very impressive, but it is also very Safety—after all, in Japan, there are strange things like being pushed out even if the grades are too good.
It turned out that I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it, did you students of Xiuzhiyuan buy the deviation value with family money?
First grade list, No.1, Kato Jue, 530 four points.
No.2, Shinomiya Kaguya, 490 seven points.
No.3, Shijo Zhenfei, 490 five points.
No.3, Xiazhiqiu Shiyu, 490 five points.
……
In short, such a list of achievements is so true that Mr. Kato's whole body is numb, trembling all over in the hot weather, and tears can't stop streaming down.
