Chapter 753: The Evolution of Tea
Su Huai said: "Am I joking?" He used a rhetorical tone, trying to give Sam a certain stimulus, because if he didn't feel this strong stimulation, he would not be able to impress the exhibitors.
"Mr. Su, I don't think your joke is very humorous, all of you present are industry insiders, and they will only be bored with your clumsy jokes. Sam sank his face for the first time and said:
"How can tea be made instantly? Don't you know that different tea leaves must be brewed at a certain temperature, and if you brew it with boiling water, it will seriously affect the taste! Even if your purple clay pot is breathable, it is useless. ”
Sam is the head of Wal-Mart's food department, although his main business is sales, but he also has a very thorough study of various food-related technical links.
For example, although Gyokuro tea is delicious, it must be brewed at a temperature of 50-60 degrees, and if it is brewed in boiling water, it will have a swishing taste...... When a person takes a sip, he will spit it out.
"Excuse me, Mr. Sam, do you know about black tea?" asked Su Huai.
"Black tea?" Sam looked puzzled, where is there a difference between black tea and green tea, only matcha and sencha, right?
Su Huai glanced at Anxi, and Qianzong said: "They say that this tea is generally made of new leaves of tea trees, unfermented materials, the soup color is bright, the aroma is high, and the brewing color is green, all of which are called green tea."
However, we also have a unique way of making tea in China, which is to use the buds and leaves of the tea tree as raw materials, and brew it with a dark color and bright soup color, which is called black tea. ”
Everyone listened and looked at each other, and many people showed a look of disbelief, and the tea leaves were still red?
After Su Huai finished speaking, Professor Tian next to him looked a little uneasy, stepped forward and handed over a bag of tea powder, and in front of everyone, he brewed more than a dozen cups with boiling water and handed them to everyone.
Everyone looked at the red tea, they all felt very strange, they all tasted it, and suddenly opened their mouths slightly, which was really different from the tea they had drunk before, and the taste was drier and mellow.
Sam's face was full of surprise, if he hadn't seen Su Huai brew it with boiling water, he wouldn't have believed it was the taste of tea.
Anxi frowned, and said disdainfully: "This is also worthy of tea, it's just a leaf soaking! ”
Everyone listened to Anxi's scolding, and immediately tasted it again, and sure enough, they tasted a trace of sourness, although this reason was very reluctant, but just now Su Huai was also picky about the astringency of Yulu, and he couldn't blame Anxi for picking bones in the eggs.
Professor Tian plucked up the courage and said: "Although the taste of our Huaxia black tea is not top-notch, it is very convenient to make, and we can ship it for 3 yuan a cup!"
At this time, all the exhibitors, including Sam, were shocked, instant drinks are to be packaged, and the price can be so low, so the price can be sold for 5 yuan, which is much cheaper than all the instant drinks on the market now!
"Baga!!" Qian Zongmu's face was full of humiliation, and he couldn't help but point at Professor Tian and shouted angrily: "You are deliberately damaging the value of the tea ceremony!!
At this time, Su Huai looked at the suddenly angry Thousand Sect Clans at this time, and said with a slight smile:
"Master Qianzong, tea is just a drink, we ancient Chinese often said that there are seven things when going out, firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, tea, which means that no matter whether you are rich or poor, from the beginning of the morning to open the door, a day's life is inseparable from these seven things......
For example, you are an aristocratic idler who spends an hour every day bathing and changing clothes, worshipping God before drinking tea, bowing, chanting a mantra, and receiving a forbearance seal, so that you can drink tea, and invent such a boring ritual thing as the tea ceremony, our Chinese culture is used for life, how can it be transmitted to you, and it has become a toss life?"
"What are you talking about!?" The Thousand Sect Chambers were already about to go berserk, completely forgetting the Kyoto Chamber of Commerce taboo of "not being able to argue with Su Sage"!
But at this moment, the conflict was suddenly interrupted.
"Mr. Qianzong doesn't need to be angry, I think this Huaxia instant black tea has no market prospects. ”
Everyone looked back at Sam as he spoke.
With a shrewd look flashing in Sam's eyes, he looked at Su Huai:
"Mr. Su, although your cheap instant tea is indeed very low-cost, and it will get a good response to Asia, but for us Europeans and Americans, this black tea is too light in taste and has no appeal, believe me, we Wal-Mart have done a lot of market research on related drinks, and we know what the tastes of European and American users are. “
Ren Na hummed: "But the taste of Yulu tea is lighter than our black tea~"
Sam explains: "We are optimistic about the Yukuro tea, not only because of its excellent taste, but more importantly, because there are certain cultural attributes in the Yuben tea ceremony, and this added value is very high. ”
Professor Tian also sighed slightly in his heart at this moment, this is what he is worried about, Su Huai doesn't understand the market.
He said that he has been working in Europe and the United States in the field of tea for 20 years, and he is definitely not a competitor who can be replaced by low prices.
Anxi, the Thousand Sect Clan breathed a sigh of relief, looked at Su Huai a little proudly, and thought to himself, you Su Sage also kicked the iron plate today.
But seeing Su Huai smiled slightly, he clapped his hands lightly and said, "Mr. Sam is really professional, you are indeed right, this instant tea does not meet the mainstream taste of your market, so I also added one thing to it." ”
At this time, Du Jiang and the fat sister took a strip of instant packets, dissolved them in a water cup with boiling water, and then stirred them and handed them to Sam.
Professor Tian was also stunned at this time, Su Huai hadn't mentioned this to him beforehand?
As soon as Sam took it, he tasted a familiar fragrance, and said in surprise: "This is ......" and then blew lightly, took a sip, and exhaled softly:
"Milk and tea?"
Qian Zongmu's eyes widened when he heard this: "Tea and milk!?" After speaking, he went up with Anxi, and the two tasted it together, and immediately glared at Su Huai fiercely.
Oh my God!!In this world, there are people who drink sweet tea!? This is simply a big rebellion!
In the original time and space of Su Huai, although tea entered Europe very early, it was really popular because of the invention of black tea in the Ming Dynasty.
Later, people in India and Malaysia added condensed milk to black tea and invented pulled tea, which swept the United States, Latin America, and Chinese tea spread all over the world, not static, but in different places, there are different evolutions.
Anthy laughed angrily at this time, and even praised: "This milk and tea are really delicious, why didn't the rest of us think of this genius practice?"
Qian Zongmuro also coughed beside him: "Because doing so is tantamount to murder." ”
Renna said angrily, "What nonsense are you talking about!?"
Mr. Sam coughed lightly: "This milk tea tastes really good, but Master Qianzong is right, ordinary milk and tea will produce uneven coagulation, because there is oxalic acid and tannic acid in the tea, and calcium in the milk, and the two are synthesized into calcium oxalate under certain conditions......
Anxi was also energetic at this time, and pulled his throat at the channel businessmen: "If you drink milk mixed with tea for a long time, you will get stone disease, you say, what is this not murder?"
