The Amazing Son-in-Law [The Charismatic Charlie Wade] (Chinese name) Chapter: 6905

The leaves of the mother of Pu’er tea have grown so thick that counting them clearly is a challenge. However, the Pu’er tea tree itself is still quite small. An adult Pu’er tea tree can reach several meters tall, sometimes even ten or twenty meters, with thousands of leaves. The mother of Pu’er tea is the ancestor of all Pu’er tea trees. Given enough time to grow, it would likely be much larger than the average Pu’er tea tree.

Lin Wan’er examined the plant closely and said to Charlie Wade, “Look, sir, the leaves of the mother of Pu’er tea look like fake green plants you find in stores. Each leaf is perfect, with no yellowing or curling.”

Charlie Wade was impressed. “It withstands the cold, wind, and snow in winter, and the heat in summer. Ordinary pests seem to have no effect on it. At first, we were worried that moving the mother of Pu’er tea from Dianchi Lake would harm it, but now it seems we worried too much.”

Lin Wan’er nodded in agreement. “By next spring, it will definitely be even more lush.”

Charlie Wade smiled and replied, “Then we can pick some leaves to make tea bricks. Not only will they taste great, but they will also have some spiritual energy. It will surely be the best tea.”

Suddenly, Lin Wan’er had an idea. “Young Master, you should consider whether the leaves of the mother of Pu’er tea can help in refining elixirs. This plant might be unique in containing spiritual energy. If it can enhance the effects of elixirs, it would be much better than just brewing and drinking it.”

Charlie Wade responded, “The elixirs I’m using now are all noted…”

“Nine Mysterious Heavenly Scriptures.” I’m unsure if adding Pucha tea leaves to the elixirs will change their effectiveness, but I’ll make some next time. You can start by using the Rejuvenation Pill. It doesn’t cost much to make, and if it works well, you might consider adding it to other elixirs in the future.”

Lin Wan’er replied, “In the Nu family’s view of Chinese medicine, there are usually two kinds of prescriptions. One requires precise amounts of each herb to achieve the desired effect. The other serves as a base recipe. If you add special herbs to this base, it can sometimes lead to surprising results. The Pucha tree is a sacred tree that can endure disasters, so its leaves are likely rare and valuable.”

Charlie Wade nodded and said, “Ms. Lin is correct. Many prescriptions need to be updated as new information becomes available. I’ll give it a try when I can.”

Just then, Charlie Wade’s phone rang. It was Li Yalin calling.

Charlie answered and asked, “Inspector Li, have you found anything new?”

Li Yalin replied quickly, “Mr. Ye, I found three suspects linked to the three elders at the Porto Novo International Airport in Benin this morning. They took the first flight from Benin to South Africa.”

Marven asked, “Do you have any photos? Please send them to me.”

“Yes,” Li Yalin said, and he promptly sent a clear photo to Charlie Wade via WeChat.

In the picture, three Asian men who appeared to be in their 60s or 70s were seen at the airport.

At the airport boarding gate, three people stood together with cold, expressionless faces. They looked somewhat alike and carried no luggage, leaving their hands empty. The sign showed it was a flight to Cape Town, the capital of South Africa, and many passengers were already lining up to board.

Charlie Wade turned to Detective Li Yalin and asked, “What made Ai think these three are suspects?”

Li Yalin explained, “Ai analyzed that Benin is close to Nigeria, with just over 100 kilometers between Lagos and Porto Novo. This increases the chance that these three chose to leave from here. They also fit the profile of being Asian. Most importantly, their appearances are quite similar, suggesting they might be related by blood.”

Charlie looked at the three people in the picture and noticed how different they seemed compared to the other passengers. He could see the resemblance in their features.

“I agree, something feels off about them,” Charlie said to Li Yalin. “If they are indeed the three elders, they will likely transfer to South America in Cape Town. Inspector Li, please keep an eye on their movements. If their next stop is South America, we can be sure they are the three elders!”
