Idle Quotes
Too much work!
- "Liyue's tea is certainly delicious. But it takes too much work to brew!"
Dialogue
- Hermanson: Liyue tea is great, but it's hard to brew, and that's a headache for those who just want a quick drink.
Have any suggestions?
- Hermanson: Hah, I have an idea!
- Hermanson: We'll break the leaves up into smaller pieces, then put them in a cloth or paper bag.
- Hermanson: And when you want tea, you can just put the bag in a cup and add water.
- Hermanson: You can even separate the tea leaves and the tea immediately after making it. Not bad, right?
- Hermanson: Once I return to Fontaine after this deal, I'm going to put my invention into production right away.
- Hermanson: People in my line of work always have a lot of ideas, but I can't let them have this one.
- Does this count as drinking tea?
- Hermanson: Frankly speaking, this may not be the best way for those who are serious about tea.
- Hermanson: After all, the cloth and the paper bags will carry flavor all their own, which might affect the flavor of the tea in turn.
- Hermanson: Grinding the tea leaves too finely might also have an impact on the flavor.
- Hermanson: We'll just have to keep trying to improve the paper or the cloth bags to minimize the aforementioned influence they might have.
- Speed really isn't the goal when drinking tea, is it?
- Hermanson: I've been doing business in Yilong Wharf for a decade, and I realized something...
- Hermanson: Not everyone knows how to appreciate tea. Some aren't particular about the flavor.
- Hermanson: It's unrealistic to ask them to spend a ton of time studying how to properly make the stuff. They'd find the step you need to wash the residue troublesome alone, to say nothing of the whole process.
- Hermanson: My tea bags are only for those who're looking for a quick cup. The traditionalists can still make tea the old-fashioned way. No one will be hurt!
- Bye, and good luck.
- Hermanson: Farewell, you too!
Trivia
