Takahashi arrived at the department precisely at six in the morning. After completing his tasks as per Zhang Lin's request, he started making tea for him.
He weighed twenty-nine tea granules using an electronic scale and recorded it in his notebook. He decided to start with this weight from today, adjusting based on Zhang Lin's satisfaction until he found the optimal tea leaf weight.
Takahashi also recorded and calculated the time for making tea, the time when Zhang Lin started working, and the cooling rate of a cup of tea. He ensured that when Zhang Lin arrived at work he would have warm tea that was not too hot.
In Japan, Takahashi had some knowledge about tea ceremony, but China and Japan are different, and brewing a satisfying cup of tea in Dr. Zhang's simplified method entirely relied on meticulous experiences.
"Takahashi, did you buy this electronic scale just for making tea?" Li Guodong thought Takahashi was conducting some experiments.
