The old thing tea shop was re-ignited by Gu Kaiwen, but the amount of net mountain tea consumed by the old thing tea shop every day was limited, and it was unable to maximize the benefits.

So, Gu Kaiwen thought of a way to maximize the benefits of Jingshan tea.

Excluding the expansion of the old tea shop and the sale of Jingshan tea, it may be possible to reprocess Jingshan tea and make Jingshan tea into matcha drinks, matcha cakes, etc., so that the added value of Jingshan tea can be further improved. Gu Kaiwen thought to himself in his heart.

In recent years, matcha has become more and more popular, and its positioning is relatively high-end.

For example, the price of matcha drinks and matcha cakes is usually relatively high, and a small matcha cake costs thirty or forty yuan is quite normal, and the tea leaves, the raw materials used to make matcha, should not be too good.

At least Gu Kaiwen has not heard of using famous tea as a raw tea to make matcha for the time being.

If Jingshan tea is made into a matcha series of products, as long as the taste is outstanding, Gu Kaiwen will naturally further increase the price of the corresponding products.

"Master Yun, I'll go out first. Gu Kaiwen thought of the idea of matcha, and he immediately began to act.

Matcha is something that grinds green tea into a powder, and ordinary people can make matcha as long as they buy a grinder.

Be sure to buy a high-grade grinder, though.

Otherwise, an ordinary grinder will definitely not be able to make a sufficiently delicate matcha powder, which will affect the taste of matcha.

Gu Kaiwen bought a high-end grinder in Shafu Square and bought a lot of experimental materials before returning to the old tea shop to prepare to make matcha from Jingshan tea.

"Master Yun, do you know matcha?" Gu Kaiwen asked.

Yun Zhongyang nodded, but didn't understand, "That kind of thing, so that the tea completely loses its due taste, Shaodong, are you going to make matcha?"

Gu Kaiwen nodded in affirmation, "Well, I'm going to try making matcha with Jingshan tea." As he spoke, he added two taels of pure camellia to the grinder.

According to the manual of the grinding machine, the grinding time chosen by Gu Kaiwen is three minutes, so as to completely grind the pure mountain tea leaves into powder.

"Buzz~~~"

The motor of the grinder makes the sound of high-speed rotation.

Three minutes later, the grinder stopped working, and Gu Kaiwen carefully opened the grinding chamber, and he checked the crushing of matcha.

After a careful inspection, Gu Kaiwen nodded with satisfaction, this grinder is worthy of a high-end product of 3,000 yuan, and the net mountain tea after grinding is crushed very evenly, almost no graininess.

Gu Kaiwen collected the matcha powder, he took out a carton of milk ice cream from the refrigerator, then poured a little matcha powder into it, and ate the ice cream with the matcha powder.

"Huh!" Gu Kaiwen fed the milk ice cream mixed with matcha powder into his mouth, and he immediately tasted a different taste from ordinary matcha.

Ordinary matcha, although it has a green tea flavor, has a very bland taste.

Some matcha of average quality even has an indescribable light and greasy taste, which is definitely not a taste that pleases the public.

However, the matcha powder made with pure mountain tea does not have that unpleasant light taste, but has a clear fragrance that blooms in the mouth, and a sweet taste that seems to be absent, as if you are in the gentle spring breeze, which makes people inexplicably intoxicated.

Gu Kaiwen opened another milk ice cream, put some matcha powder, and handed it to Yun Zhongyangdao, "Master Yun, you taste it." ”

Yun Zhongyang didn't refuse, he took it and tasted it.

It took nearly a minute for Yun Zhongyang to show a puzzled look, "This taste... I can't tell..."

"Okay, or not good?" Gu Kaiwen asked about the essence.

"Yes, it must be good!" Yun Zhongyang said affirmatively, "Shaodong, do you want to sell matcha?"

Gu Kaiwen shook his head, "No!"

What is the difference between selling matcha directly and selling pure mountain tea?

"I'm going to make matcha into matcha ice cream, matcha cake, matcha coffee, matcha milk tea, and so on, and then sell them to the outside world. Gu Kaiwen said his plan.

Yun Zhongyang worried, "Isn't that another store to buy?"

Gu Kaiwen shook his head, "No need." These things are very simple to make, just make a small cubicle in the backyard. ”

"Sell it directly in the teahouse?" Yun Zhongyang wondered.

Gu Kaiwen still shook his head, "I'm going to open an online store, as for the teahouse and the next door, it can be sold together, how much can it be sold." ”

"What about the price?" Yun Zhongyang asked again.

"For the time being, we are not sure, we will first put up the shelves, then make the product, and then determine the price. "Gu Kaiwen didn't open the yellow cavity indiscriminately, and now the products have not come out, so it is really impossible to price arbitrarily.

The next day, early in the morning, Gu Kaiwen began to browse the talent information network, so as to recruit a qualified matcha master, according to Gu Kaiwen's requirements, the matcha master must be proficient in making cakes, and then have a certain understanding of milk tea and coffee.

As for ice cream, Gu Kaiwen plans to buy a smart ice cream making machine, just like the ice cream machine used in Kaifeng Cai and Golden Arches Restaurant.

After some selection, Gu Kaiwen finally selected a young man named Hua Ban.

At four o'clock in the afternoon of the same day, half of the time arrived at the old tea house as agreed.

"Hello, Master Hua. Gu Kaiwen took the initiative to stretch out his hand.

Hua Ban reached out and shook Gu Kaiwen, "Hello, Mr. Gu." He replied, then looked at the layout of the old teahouse.

"Mr. Gu, with all due respect, this is a teahouse, it doesn't seem to need a pastry chef, right?" Hua Ban asked first.

Gu Kaiwen responded, "This is indeed a teahouse. Therefore, we need to make rich tea leaves into matcha powder, and then further process them into matcha products to create more value. ”

Hua Banban said very bluntly, "Do you want to recycle the brewed tea leaves and reprocess them into matcha powder? If so, I can't accept this job." ”

It is undeniable that such a situation does exist in the matcha industry.

Faced with the upright half, Gu Kaiwen directly denied, "Of course not." Let me first introduce the situation of our old tea shop. ”

Gu Kaiwen recounted the situation of the old tea workshop and the Gu family tea house, as well as the situation of Jingshan tea, and after the other party nodded to show that he understood, Gu Kaiwen continued, "Therefore, we need to get involved in the field of matcha, so as to digest the inventory of Jingshan tea as much as possible, and create more economic value by the way." ”

Hua Ban asked bluntly again, "According to the pricing of your pure mountain tea, plus self-production and self-sale, your profits must be very high, I want a higher salary!"
