"No grinding?"

"This jar holds a liter of tea?"

"What are you joining?"

Zhou Peilin did not hide his doubts, asked a series of questions, picked up the bottle and looked inside and out, looked at the tea carefully, and then stared at the big jars in the shed.

Liu Wei beckoned the people in the courtyard to go back, only then took some things back to the house, closed the door, and said as he did it: "I'm going to open a ...... You have to get familiar with the tea shop as soon as possible, and you will be in charge of the shop when the time comes. ”

"I ...... Am I in charge of a shop? Zhou Peilin's eyes widened: "I don't know anything?" ”

"I'll teach you well, you study carefully, do you think you can do it?"

"I'm going to study hard! But...... I'm still a little scared ......."

She said in a joking tone: "Who is not a big girl on the sedan chair, the first time?" I also opened a tea shop for the first time, two months ago, the first time I opened a food shop, I was afraid that it was normal, if I was afraid, I didn't do it, and in the end, it could only be ......"

"What can it be?"

"Sitting in a sedan chair, marrying a husband, giving birth to a husband and serving your in-laws, and staying in the ravine for the rest of your life, don't you want to go outside to see, such as Chang'an?"

"My grandfather followed my father-in-law to many places in his early years, and when I was young, we all listened to him, and I really wanted to go to Chang'an to eat sesame Hu cakes, which were golden and crispy, crispy and delicious, and I also wanted to go to Dongzhou to see, and I heard that there was a lake like a mirror."

"So you have to study hard, don't be afraid, just get up if you fall."

Zhou Peilin smiled at her and squinted: "Okay! ”

"Listen, the following is our internal secret, don't tell anyone else."

"I have touched the Huai'an tea market for more than a month, and the tea products are roughly divided into three categories, inferior, priced at 15-55 Wen a liter, medium, priced at 65-125 Wen a liter, and the superior price is 150-200 Wen a liter, as well as special tea, we do not study this kind."

"The way to drink tea, the common people, mainly boil water directly, and people who are particular about it will generally take the method of grinding and adding materials, that is, you asked me earlier, do you want to grind."

As mentioned earlier, people who are a little more particular about the process of eating tea are more complicated, the tea cake is broken, roasted on the stove, the dried leaves are mashed, put into the porcelain bottle, and then boiled water to put in the tea powder, add various seasonings, and finally cook out a bowl of tea soup, or also known as porridge.

According to this process, it will take at least an hour to eat a cup of tea.

Therefore, she had to think differently.

"There are so many shops selling tea, and they have accumulated so many contacts in the early years, we can't do it, my method is to find another way to find the right customer group."

"Guest...... What body? ”

"To whom are we going to sell our tea? Have you ever wondered who will buy our tea? ”

"If ......" Zhou Peilin raised the vial: "If you use this to hold tea, the guests who will buy it should not be ordinary people." ”

"Certainly not ordinary people. Our target customers are mid-to-high-end women, literati, and wealthy people. ”

The water on the stove boiled at this time.

She put the things in the tea bowl, poured the water, and closed the lid.

"Don't worry, you don't understand, it's a very, very normal thing, if everyone understands, my business won't be good."

After a few more minutes, he told her to sit down and push a bowl of tea over: "Come, you taste, you will understand something after you taste it." ”

Zhou Peilin sat down and lifted the lid in front of him.

The moment the lid is lifted.

A fresh fragrance.

"This ...... This is ......" Zhou Peilin showed joy, looked at her, and then looked down at the floating green leaves and pink small pieces in the bowl: "This is a peach?!" ”

"Nose is really smart, you can taste it."

Zhou Peilin took a small sip, waited for it to cool down, and drank half a bowl before saying: "Refreshing, slightly sweet, with a trace of bitterness between the teeth, and a sweet aftertaste, there is such a way to eat tea!" ”

Sugar is added to the tea leaves.

Of course, it tastes better than oil, salt, sauce and vinegar.

For those who like this taste, there will be more women.

Huai'an is not a small place, and there are not a few women who have extra money in their hands, such as the maid in the Gaomen compound, or the jasper lady of the small family, who can afford this kind of tea.

"Did you get a name?"

"The peach is dying."

Zhou Peilin then recited: "The peach is dying, scorching its glory. ”

"Yes, I know, okay, let's tell you about our peach."

"There are only three things in it, tea leaves, dried peaches, and rock sugar." Beauty Nest

"And rock candy?!"

"Why else is it so sweet?"

There are three types of tea, black tea, green, and oolong tea.

The dried peaches were made in August, so I won't mention it again.

Let's talk about rock candy for now.

Here comes the question, which of the following foods could not have appeared in the Tang Dynasty?

A. Sashimi

B. Sesame cake

C. Soup

D. Rock sugar gourd

The answer is obvious, right?

Sashimi is to go to Jinmanlou to eat the expensive "cut fish".

Sesame cake is the sesame cake that Zhou Peilin said.

Dumpling soup, a soft noodle sheet similar to a cat's ear, will be talked about when I go to Chang'an.

Then, in the Tang Dynasty, there was no rock sugar gourd???

Hawthorn is there.

Rock candy is available.

However, "sugar" belongs to luxury~~

Much more expensive than any macaron!

Let's start with the cheap version, brown sugar, the price of a liter is about 120 Wen.

Compare the price of basic food, a bucket of rice is 15 Wen (12.5 catties), and a roast chicken is 45 Wen.

With that spare money, isn't it good to eat two roast chickens?

Brown sugar up, the middle-class version, rock sugar, the famous rock sugar production area in ancient times, Suining, Sichuan, what is made of sucrose crystallization method, purple quality is the best, followed by amber, the most yellow.

Let's take a look at the price, 200 wen per liter.

Further up is "heather", the best quality brown sugar imported from India.

The price is above 500 wen per liter, and it is something that only the royal relatives and nobles can have.

She didn't even have a chance to "take a look".

In addition, there is one more thing - honey.

This is the first sweet addition that comes to her mind, but honey, like the protagonist of "A Ride on the Red Dust Concubine Smile", is a treasure, and is generally used in medicine, or as a high-end gift for visiting relatives and friends.

Is sugar eaten by the average person?

But there is no "sweet" peach tea, she always feels soulless.

Must be sweetened!

The taste of brown sugar is much worse than that of rock sugar, so I finally chose rock sugar - of course, it has to be crushed, crushed, crushed, and broken into slag......

In fact, the genuine Tang Dynasty had white sugar, and after Tang Taizong Li Shimin sent people to India to learn the sugar making method, he came back to improve and upgrade, and only then did he produce sugar that was far better than India.

Back to the rock sugar gourd.

Excuse me, which dynasty did the rock sugar gourd originate in?

A. Tang Dynasty

B. Song Dynasty

C. Ming Dynasty

D. Qing Dynasty

Excuse me, are there any students who choose A?

According to Du Niang, the earliest record of rock sugar gourd, in the Southern Song Dynasty, the romance story was not written.

"Two hundred wen a liter? It's too expensive. Zhou Peilin was surprised.

"Here's the point, let's talk about the cost."
