Chapter 1,481 The British Who Love to Drink Black Tea

British people like to drink tea, and there are many kinds. Most people like to drink black tea. In addition, Earl Gray tea, jasmine tea, and green tea are also popular among British people.

However, the British favorite drink of black tea sounds like it should have been invented by the British, but in fact, black tea was invented by the Chinese.

At the beginning of the 17th century, Tongmuguan in the Wuyishan region of Fujian Province in China took the lead in developing Lapsang Souchong black tea, so Lapsang Souchong black tea can be regarded as the originator of black tea in the world.

However, the reason why black tea is so popular all over the world must be attributed to the right time and place. The seventeenth century was in the Age of Discovery in the West, so black tea spread to Europe and became popular among aristocratic circles in various countries.

In 1662, when Spanish Princess Catherine married into the British royal family, she brought very precious black tea and sugar as a dowry, bringing the habit of drinking black tea to the United Kingdom. Later, it developed into British-style afternoon tea that was eaten with snacks. making it an integral part of British culture.

There have been two wars caused by black tea in history: one was when Britain was too dependent on imported Chinese black tea and exported opium in order to reverse the trade deficit with China, which then triggered the Opium War; the other was the Boston Tea Party that triggered the American War of Independence. event. It shows how much the British love black tea. Do not hesitate to fight for this.

As for the classification of black tea, according to the production process, it can be divided into three categories: Souchong black tea, Kungfu black tea and black broken tea.

There are two types of Souchong black tea: Lapsang Souchong (without smoke smell) and Yan Souchong (with smoke smell). The obvious pine smoke aroma is the most special thing about Yan Souchong tea. The tea soup of Song Yan Souchong black tea has a rich and mellow taste. It's sweet, you can experience it carefully, and it also has the aroma of longan soup.

As for Gongfu black tea, the name is as the name suggests. Because the processing process is relatively delicate and a lot of "gongfu" is put into it, it gets this name. Yunnan’s Dianhong, Sichuan’s Chuanhong, Anhui’s Qihong, Hubei’s Yihong, and Fujian’s Minhong are all famous Gongfu black teas, so don’t talk about black tea, just Dianhong. In fact, there are many kinds.

Black broken tea seems to be the impression of many people that black broken tea is actually made from bad broken tea as raw material. In fact, this is not the case. Red broken tea has its own production process, which basically involves kneading and cutting. Process, when such black tea is brewed, the aroma and soup color are very easy to come out.

Of course, now, black tea is grown all over the world. Because of this, there are many different varieties of tea depending on where the black tea is grown.

For example, Assam black tea, Ceylon black tea, Darjeeling black tea, etc.

Among black teas, it is generally recognized that Jinjunmei tea is the best, but the price is so expensive that ordinary people cannot afford it.

Jin Junmei, a branch of Lapsang Souchong, is an innovative black tea developed by Jiang Yuanxun, the 24th generation inheritor of Lapsang Souchong, through innovative fusion on the basis of traditional craftsmanship.

Produced in the Tongmu Village area.

In terms of technology, the whole process of Jin Junmei is handmade by tea masters. Each 500g of Jin Junmei requires tens of thousands of fresh tea bud tips. There is no distinction between varieties of Jinjunmei. There is only one kind. The raw materials are picked from the original ecological alpine tea tree buds with a radius of 565 square kilometers in the Wuyishan National Key Nature Reserve, and then go through a series of complex withering, shaking, fermentation, rolling, etc. processing steps are completed. Therefore, there is a reason why Jinjun eyebrows are expensive.

As for the effects of black tea, it has a fragrant aroma, sweet and mellow taste, and because it is fermented, black tea usually does not cause insomnia after drinking, and it also helps gastrointestinal digestion and appetite.

How to choose, it's simple. When looking at the appearance of dry tea, those with a little luster and dark brown are considered good quality; looking at the color of the soup, those with orange-red, red and bright and translucent soup are also of good quality. However, it should be noted that some dry tea The appearance looks golden and beautiful, but as soon as it is soaked, a layer of yellow will melt into the soup. In that case, it will be dyed with lemon yellow and cannot be purchased. As for the aroma, there are honey-flavored and floral-flavored ones. As long as the aroma is pure, Just like it.

At this moment, what Qin Feng was facing was black tea imported from China. As for where it is, Qin Feng doesn't know.

When British people drink black tea, they become extremely happy, and everyone has a happy smile on their faces.

At this moment, Qin Feng suddenly felt that the Qing Dynasty was really depressed back then. If I had known that black tea could satisfy the British so much, I would have just given it to the British. Just build a good relationship and ask for protection from the British, that's all.

That is better than fighting two Opium Wars and finally ceding territory and paying compensation.

Maybe, black tea made the British feel comfortable drinking it, and it could also help the Qing Dynasty with some technology.

Of course, placing all your hopes on others is not a long-term solution after all. However, it should at least be earlier than the Meiji Restoration in Little Japan. I will not be oppressed by a small Japanese pirate country in modern times.

If it can develop, at least it will be no problem to fight against the Japanese pirate country at that time. And if the Japanese pirates could be defeated, other countries would not have such great ambitions to invade and occupy China at that time. Unlike little Japan, which wants to dominate the entire China.

Of course, there are not so many possibilities in this world.

British people don't like to talk when drinking black tea, because this time is the most wonderful time.

After a while of speechless enjoyment, the topic really came to today’s topic.

"I made an appointment to meet you two today. In addition to my sincere admiration and appreciation for you two, I am also a partner. I have an advertising endorsement contract and I want to find you two. The price is reasonable, so I think I should help introduce you. ." JK Rowling said.

These words not only expressed her position, but also helped Qin Feng do some publicity.

"Mr. Qin, if you have something to say, it doesn't hurt to say it." Rowan Atkinson said.

"I have a car company that is developing two cars, and I want to hire two people to endorse them." Qin Feng took out two plans from his briefcase, "You two can take a look."

Rowan Atkinson and Beckenham turned out one after another. When they opened it, they were both surprised.

The car Rowan Atkinson is going to endorse is a sedan. Regarding this car, Qin Feng is directly preparing to amaze the world. It uses the first frameless glass, and the whole vehicle is very streamlined. Its style is a reference to later Teslas.

As for Beckenham's model, it is naturally an SUV. Compared with the cute Mr. Bean, as an athlete, Beckenham is more suitable to endorse an SUV. As for the appearance of the SUV, it adopts a relatively arc-shaped shape including the periphery to make it as rounded as possible. Although I also considered being angular. However, in the city, if it is more rounded, it will be more comfortable to the senses and can adapt to more consumers.

This is also limited by the current manufacturing and processing capabilities of the factory, which cannot produce multiple models at the same time. What's more, if you have personality, leave it to Aurora.
