"The tea skill performance is not just a performance."
"It seems fancy and irregular, but it is performed according to the brewing needs of different tea varieties."
After speaking, Li Xiao picked up the first cup of tea placed on his left hand side.
Li Xiao needs to open the lid.
What is in the cup is a cup of high mountain oolong tea. It is not a precious variety, but the tea soup tastes sweet and has a strong scent of osmanthus.
Oolong tea has a distinctive feature, that is, it has an extremely strong aroma.
High mountain oolong tea is a semi-fermented tea between green tea and black tea.
The origin of high mountain oolong tea is the mountainous area of Taiwan Province in the Han Dynasty.
The most famous of them are the mountainous areas of Nantou County and Chiayi County.
The mountainous areas of these two counties have higher altitudes.
The mountains are beautiful, the mountains are layer upon layer, the fog is deep and the rain is heavy, and the air humidity is very high. As a result, the alpine oolong produced is very tender and of high quality.
Moreover, due to the shorter sunshine hours in high mountain areas.
Therefore, the catechin component in the tea tree that produces a bitter and astringent taste will be greatly reduced.
Of course, among the high mountain oolong teas, the best is called Dongding Oolong, which is grown between 1,500 meters and 2,000 meters above sea level.
In mountainous areas at this altitude, clouds and fog often occur.
The sunshine time is only 1/3 or even lower than that of ordinary Oolong.
This results in less bitterness and astringency and better quality.
In addition, sufficient humidity can also keep the tea leaves in a trustworthy state.
Put your nose next to the cup and inhale deeply.
The rich osmanthus fragrance is even more obvious.
He nodded with satisfaction:
"With this floral scent, people who didn't know it would have thought I was in a garden."
"For 18 yuan, what kind of bicycle do you need to have such high-quality mountain oolong tea?"
"Without further ado, let's take a bite first."
Along with the aroma of tea, the green tea soup is brought into your mouth.
The temperature of the tea is just right, neither burning your mouth nor feeling too cold.
This is also the result of the tea skill performance.
The slender spout makes the water flow smaller and thinner.
The contact area between boiling water and air becomes wider, and the cooling speed is naturally faster.
The drop point of the water column is also very particular. The rotating tea soup can fully soak all the tea leaves in the cup.
Make the flavor of tea more even and easier to spread.
The tea soup was not swallowed directly. Li Xiao let the tea soup roll on his tongue.
Let the taste buds at different locations on your tongue carefully taste the taste of the tea.
When the tea soup completely disappeared, he licked his lips and nodded with satisfaction to the live broadcast room:
“Very rich flavor.”
"The fragrance is long-lasting, and you can smell the fragrance of flowers while drinking tea."
"The color of the tea soup is very green, slightly bitter and mellow, with a sweet aftertaste and a lingering aftertaste."
"Don't say 18 yuan for a cup of tea, even if it's 38 yuan a cup, I think it's well worth the money!"
Studio.
“Eighteen yuan for a cup of tea, I think it’s too expensive.”
"Yes, yes, 18 yuan for a cup of tea is expensive, but 28 yuan for a cup of milk tea is cheap."
"Actually, 18 yuan for a cup of tea is indeed expensive, but if you think about it carefully, a cup of tea can last a whole day, which is very cheap."
"Alpine oolong tea or Dongding oolong tea is better, but the price is also prettier."
“If oolong tea tastes good, it tastes great; if it doesn’t taste good, it tastes really bad!”
"When I traveled to Chengdu the year before last, I went to Heming Teahouse and drank oolong tea. I was really surprised. I originally wanted to buy some to drink at home, but unfortunately they refused to sell it."
·····
Listening to Li Xiao's explanation, Uncle Zhou nodded slightly and said calmly:
"Of course this tea is delicious. This is a good tea selected from Taiwan Province where the boss personally went."
"The purchase price of this oolong tea is a full 380 yuan per pound."
"A cup of tea uses about 5 grams of tea leaves, excluding hot water, loss of tea leaves and wear and tear on tea sets."
"You can earn almost one Lehe from one cup, no more than 50 cents at most."
Li Xiao was a little stunned when he heard what the old man said.
He did realize that the profit from this tea was not high.
But I really didn't expect it to be so low.
The profit of 5 cents a cup is really pitiful.
This is different from those milk tea cold drinks.
Most milk tea shops pack up the food and take it away immediately.
You can earn money by selling one cup. Even if the profit is 5 cents per cup, you can earn 500 yuan by selling 1,000 cups a day.
However, selling tea is different. This tea should be tasted slowly.
Especially in the old tea houses in Chengdu, many people can drink a cup of tea all day long, which means that 50 cents is a whole day's profit.
The operating area of Heming Tea House seems to be very large, but there are only four to five hundred places in total.
Even if every seat is turned over once, the total number of people will not exceed 1,000.
The calculation is based on earning 50 cents per cup and drinking two cups of tea per person.
One day's profit is only 1,000 yuan
This profit is indeed a lot for ordinary people.
After all, there are not many ordinary people who can earn 30,000 yuan a month.
But for a store, it is actually very pitiful.
After all, it is such a big teahouse, and it is the first teahouse in Chengdu, the century-old Eheming Teahouse.
If I make 1,000 yuan a day, I'm afraid it will make people laugh.
This time Li Xiao really looked at the old man in front of him seriously.
Although he looks very old, he is energetic.
The fingers are very thin and have no calluses.
There are age spots on the skin, but it is very white.
Li Xiao originally thought the black folding fan in his hand was an ordinary wooden fan, but upon closer inspection, he found that the fan reflected the luster of jade. It was actually a black jade fan?
The texture of the black jade is thick and thick, and its quality cannot be determined, but it is obviously not ordinary.
Wearing a beige Tang suit, the sleeves and collar were outlined with complicated patterns using gold and silver threads.
Obviously, this hospitable old man is not a simple person.
Li Xiaoyi introduced himself:
"Hello, old gentleman, I am Li Xiao, may I ask who you are?"
"Tang Zeheng, I'm getting older. Everyone calls me Uncle Tang to save face. I'm Heming's second boss."
hiss···
Li Xiao secretly took a breath of cool air.
I didn’t know that Heming Teahouse was no ordinary teahouse.
It has been passed down for more than 100 years and has always been a family-controlled teahouse.
Although judging from the old man's tone just now, Heming Tea House shouldn't make much money just from selling tea.
However, a family like this with a history of more than 100 years can occupy 60% of the area in CD City People's Park and maintain a teahouse.
Why do you need to make money from such a small teahouse?
Li Xiao once again raised his hand and said politely:
"I didn't expect it was Boss Tang. I'm disrespectful."
"Hey, don't be too vulgar, boss. Just call me Uncle Tang like everyone else."
"By the way, when you film this, are you doing a live broadcast?"
Uncle Tang raised his hand and pointed at Li Xiao's camera with the black folding fan.
Li Xiao was also unambiguous and handed his mobile phone to Uncle Tang.
"Yes, yes, you are so trendy. You even know about the live broadcast. I am an anchor and this is what I make my living!"
