Chapter 0147: Kung Fu Teahouse
The Kung Fu Teahouse was opened by a Cantonese provincial person.
In the ancient city, teahouses are not uncommon, and they can be found everywhere in the streets and alleys. However, these local teahouses can basically be equated with casinos, because these teahouses are full of people sitting and playing mahjong or cards.
It is also for this reason that in the ancient city, if you ask someone to go out to play cards or play mahjong, you can directly say that you are going to a teahouse. As long as you are a knowledgeable person, you know what is going on.
However, this Kung Fu teahouse is completely different from the local teahouse, because there is no mahjong or card games, only elegant entertainment such as piano and guzheng, which is also the first in the ancient city.
Scarcity is expensive, and since the opening of this Kung Fu Teahouse, business has been quite good.
In recent years, the economy of the ancient city has begun to flourish, and the entertainment industry will naturally have to keep up. After all, as the wallet bulges, people's forced style will also improve. It's just the kind of earthen teahouse that plays cards and rubs hemp, which can't keep up with the requirements of social development at all. His investment in this kung fu teahouse alludes to the internal needs of social development, and it is difficult to think about it.
In terms of doing business, the people of Guangdong Province are more active than the people of Jiangdu.
When Zeng Zhi and the others came, it was not yet twelve o'clock at noon, and the Kung Fu Teahouse had just started to open, and there were very few people in the teahouse. This thing is generally more prosperous at night and relatively deserted during the day.
There are not many guests in the hall, and the hall of five or six hundred square meters is separated by bamboo curtains. On the low bamboo bed, there are square tables with tea ceremony tools. The ornaments that hang down from the air are mixed with sachets, giving the air a faint aroma that smells very good but is not pungent.
………………
"How many guests would like to have a drink?" The waiter immediately greeted him.
"It's the first time we've been here, what do you all have here?" Zeng Zhi asked.
"Maojian, Longjing, Tieguanyin, Pu'er, Huacha, and all kinds of herbal teas are available." The waiter replied.
"In this case, let's have a pot of each, taste the taste first, and then make plans." Zeng Zhi patted his head and said.
Zeng Zhi himself didn't pay much attention to drinking tea, and he couldn't taste the benefits of these teas, so he made this decision.
However, the waiter was a little stunned after hearing this, she had never met a tea drinker like Zeng Zhi, so she subconsciously asked: "A pot of ordinary flower tea costs more than forty yuan, you want so much, it seems that you can't finish it, it's a bit of a waste." ”
"The little girl is quite honest, haha." Zeng Zhi took out two hundred-yuan bills from his pocket, handed them to the waiter, and said, "This is a tip, just serve tea as I say, and show me any tricks." ”
Although the waiter was very suspicious of how much tea these people could drink, he saw that there was no reason why the banknotes were not wanted, so he put away the banknotes very neatly and went to prepare. Then, within a few minutes, she came over with all kinds of tools and tea sets.
The waiter opened the small tandoor here, began to boil the water, and after the water boiled, he washed the tea set first, and then brewed the tea leaves.
………………
Lan Tianfan is well-informed, and when he saw the brewed Pu'er, he said with some emotion: "Pu'er, it's okay to drink it occasionally." When I went to southern Yunnan, I treated many local mountain people, and I also drank Pu'er, which had been stored for more than 100 years, but I didn't think there was anything special. This thing can basically be drunk as a laxative, and if a girl wants to lose weight, she might as well give it a try, or it may be useful. ”
When Wang Yan heard this, she immediately became interested and asked curiously, "Really?" ”
After getting Lan Tianfan's affirmation, Wang Yan's eyes lit up, every woman is extremely obsessed with losing weight, and Wang Yan can't escape this law, although her figure is completely unrelated to fat in Zeng Zhi's opinion. Even Zeng Zhi felt that she should be a little plumper, so that when the two of them do something they love together, they will feel better.
Wang Yan, who learned that Pu'er tea has a weight loss effect, had no appetite for Longjing Maojian Biluochun tea, and rushed to drink Pu'er tea made from something like a black rotten branch.
However, after the Pu'er tea is brewed in water, the color is golden and yellow, and it looks very appetizing.
………………
Lan Tianfan also tasted a sip of Pu'er tea, smashed his mouth, shook his head, and then said: "Southern Yunnan is the native place of tea trees in the world, and the roots of all kinds of tea in the country and the world are in the Pu'er tea producing areas in southern Yunnan. Pu'er tea has a very long history, according to the earliest written records, the Eastern Jin Dynasty's "Huayang National Chronicles" inferred that as early as more than 3,000 years ago, King Wu's invasion period, the Pu people, the ancestors of tea planting in southern Yunnan, had offered tea to King Wu of Zhou, but there was no name for Pu'er tea at that time. ”
"During the Qing Dynasty, Pu'er tea reached its peak, and between the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War and the establishment of New China, the entire tea industry in southern Yunnan was depressed and barren. However, for a long time after the liberation, the tea production in southern Yunnan attached importance to black tea and green tea, and did not inherit and carry forward the fine tradition of Pu'er tea, and even cut down and destroyed the ancient tea gardens for hundreds of years in a large area, and replaced the planting of asexual propagation of terrace tea, and the traditional process of Qizi cake tea was interrupted for nearly half a century, and it was not until more than ten years ago that southern Yunnan began the production of ripe Pu'er tea. ”
"Pu'er tea is easy to brew and easy to brew, and easy to operate. Pu'er tea that is properly aged is not bitter or astringent, and can enter the throat even if it is soaked for a long time, and Pu'er tea is easy to preserve, and the tea property conversion is full of changes. ”
"By a certain definition, Pu'er tea is a living organism, its main feature is that after the completion of the tea body, the continuous post-fermentation effect, with the extension of time, its flavor transformation becomes more and more stable and introverted, the final completion of a cake of Pu'er tea may be as long as tens, nearly a hundred years, because from the tea leaves from the tree, until the hot water is rushed into the pot, it is in the process of transformation."
Everyone drank tea, Lan Tianfan was here to tell the history of tea, which was also self-satisfied, and the waiter who made tea next to him couldn't help but praise: "The old man is really knowledgeable, I have been working here for two months, and I don't know that there is such a big knowledge in this tea." ”
Lan Tianfan smiled slightly: "Actually, there is no need to have high hopes for drinking tea, counting on being able to avoid all diseases or anything, tea is just a drink, just look at it with a normal heart, drink it if you like it, don't drink it if you don't like it, that's all." ”
Zeng Zhi raised the cup in his hand and said with a smile: "I just like this sweet and sour herbal tea, it's delicious." ”
Wang Yan and her mother both drank Pu'er, although the taste was not very good, but it was okay to add some honey to it, and Wang Tao drank some green tea at Lan Tianfan's suggestion. The concentration of tea here is quite sufficient, which makes Wang Tao's tongue feel bitter first and then sweet.
