Due to recent events, I have found myself in need of the temptations of the Camellia sinensis plant. I packed my haversack and prepared for the journey North upon my dandy horse. The road was arduous and my physical condition deteriorated over time. I constantly found myself avoiding the great four wheeled chariots. Many would ignore my presence and run me to the brink of insanity. After what seemed like days, I reached my destination. I gave a great sigh, and gave praise to the Gods that shined down upon me.

The leaf trader took note of my traveler’s status and showed me to his goods. He proceeded to give me a detail of the wares, yet I was already informed of their nature. The walls were well stocked in variety. Much of his supplies were a combination of blending, but my search was for the raw materials. The trader left me to peruse his inventory, and I inspected the goods. Carefully, I looked over each one and took in its history. The goods came in synthetic polymerizations contained by mass. Upon the bottom, the container gave window to the size and texture of the goods.

After much debate, I made my decision based on process and bargaining. I did not have much to offer in terms of trade, but luckily the trader took monetary compensation. I decided upon the delicacies of the Young Hyson, the Russian Safari, and the Rooibos Sweet Orange. The trader was much impressed with my selection and invited me to come again. He offered samplings upon the end of weeks. I gathered my acquisitions and readied for the long return home. I was much satisfied with the transaction and look forward to the tasting of my recent treasures.
