Chapter 690 675. Qin Dynasty Cafe (15)
Later, Wang Bo never mentioned Yue Fei and his loyalty to serve the country. Every time he thought of the crooked Chinese characters on Atulu's back, he felt embarrassed.
With the arrival of the warm current, the feeling of cold winter has disappeared a lot, and the snow has melted, so that the water evaporates and absorbs heat, and it is still a bit chilly to walk in the setting sun town.
Because there is always heavy snow this winter, many projects in the town have been suspended, so without construction vehicles and messy construction sites, Sunset Town has become as beautiful as a landscape.
However, this does not mean that there is no construction work in the town, and a small building in the center of the town is undergoing urgent renovation.
Wang Bo walked into the office building stepping on the muddy water formed by the melting snow. The designer in charge of the decoration came to him and said, "Sir, the decoration of the coffee shop is over, and you are almost ready for trial operation."
Yes, this small building is what he plans to use as a coffee shop.
The town lacks entertainment venues. The emergence of gyms and bars has solved this problem, but it is not enough. With the help of two spiritual springs, Wang Bo has long decided to open a coffee shop.
New Zealanders like to drink coffee very much. For example, wherever the police go to investigate cases, they always carry coffee with them.
In many areas of the South Island, inviting the other party to drink coffee can win friendship, which is a bit of the Chinese custom of giving up cigarettes.
But for New Zealanders, a coffee shop is not just a place to simply drink, it is more of an entertainment place, which is very important.
After coffee beans were introduced to Europe from the Middle East, they were loved by Europeans in the 17th century. The emerging bourgeoisie liked to discuss business in coffee shops, such as Jonathan's and Garraway's, which were the main political exchanges in England in the early days of the British coffee shop. Museums exchange information and socialize, and French cafes and clubs are also the birthplace of revolution.
New Zealand can be said to be a miniature version of the European continent, inheriting the traditions of the ancestors of Britain, France and Italy. Cafes are a social place that locals like very much.
Compared with Europe, New Zealand's coffee culture is more prevalent, because the first immigrants in this country were sailors, poor people and criminals. It is conceivable what level their quality is. It is terrible for such people to drink alcohol.
Therefore, from the beginning of the founding of the country, New Zealand has had a strong prohibition sentiment and vigorously promoted alcohol alternative drinks such as tea or coffee to reduce alcoholism in pubs.
Tobacco, alcohol, etc., Wang Bo has not seen them appearing in a conspicuous place in any store since he came to New Zealand, but he often sees coffee, tea and concentrated fruit drinks.
In many towns or villages, there may be no restaurants, but there must be cafes. In some small places, cafes and restaurants are combined into one.
New Zealand is not a popular scene where everyone drinks and chats together, but a culture of drinking coffee and chatting is more popular, except of course where Maori gather.
Hearing that the coffee shop was built, Wang Bo cheered up and said, "Well, let's go and have a look. To be honest, I have been waiting for this coffee shop for a long time."
"I won't let you down." The designer said confidently.
The location of the coffee shop is in the center of the town. With the increasing number of people on Route 8, the population of the town continues to increase, and the arrival of many tourists, the prices of commercial buildings in the center of the town have risen.
For example, the Andersons, when they first came here, they chose a building as a house, but now it has been rented out and turned into an express hotel, and they moved to a residential area.
As soon as they got out of the car, Harris Bohn, wearing a white apron and a chef's hat, poked his head out from the next door: "Hey, mayor, when does the cafe open?"
Harris Bohn is the one who sold classic off-road cars to Wang Bo. He moved from Christchurch to a small town to start a dessert business, and he developed very well.
Wang Bo chooses the coffee shop next door to him, which is also reciprocating. Usually, when he holds events, Harris always provides him with free desserts. Now that the coffee shop is established next door, it can help Harris expand the scale of operation.
Hearing the young man's words, he smiled and waved his hands and said, "Soon, the decoration is finished, I'll go and recruit a good barista and it'll be OK, can't you wait?"
"Of course, I know my bakery will follow how popular the coffee shop will become."
Coming to Sunset Town from Christchurch was one of the wisest decisions he made in his life. Although the bakery didn't make a lot of money in the town, it developed smoothly and had a bright future.
The size of the coffee shop is not small. There are two statues of terracotta warriors and horses at the door, and there are some very Chinese-style sculpture lines on the door. Wang Bo adopts the psychology of hunting novelties, and the coffee shop adopts the ancient Chinese decoration style.
Entering the coffee shop is like entering a museum. There is still a terracotta warrior in the center of the living room. This is a big one, a cavalry cart, and there is a place on it for passengers to take pictures.
The overall style is from the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period and the Qin Dynasty. For Wang Bo, the torture and tyranny of the Qin Dynasty are legends. He has not experienced these things, but he knows that the Qin Dynasty is one of the greatest dynasties in Chinese history. It is from this era that the thought of the ideology officially began.
Of course, not everything is decorated according to the style of the Qin Dynasty. For example, the seats in the private room are made of Chinese-style high tables and stools. The way of sitting on the ground, the furniture of this period is generally characterized by low shape, which is not suitable for coffee shops, and sitting on knees to drink coffee is not very comfortable after all.
But if there is a bed in the private room, it will be relatively low. He opened a room and looked at it. The bed is only at the height of his knees, and there is a couch, which is full of ancient style.
In terms of tables, chairs, and screens, its style has the original curved shape of wood, showing a simple and rough style of simplicity, thick materials, and simple and rough lacquer decoration.
This kind of furniture looks clumsy, but it is more domineering, with a kind of vigorous and broad power, which is very different from New Zealand's exquisite modern furniture.
In terms of details, there are patterns on the stairs, handrails, tables and chairs of the coffee shop, which are called "witchcraft patterns" in New Zealand, and the Maori people also like to use such patterns for decoration.
But the two are actually different. Maori patterns are completely abstract, as long as they are beautiful.
The decorative patterns of the Qin Dynasty are derived from cloud patterns, and there are many patterns related to life, such as animal patterns, plant patterns, water ripples, and back patterns, which are simple and elegant.
Wang Bo walked around inside carefully, nodded and said: "Very good, this is the decoration style of the coffee shop I want, you can go to Mr. Juan, he will confirm the checkout for you."
After the coffee shop is established, the next step is to find a qualified barista, and then recruit a group of waiters from the town.
PS: I recommend a very interesting book to everyone. The title of the book is "Rebirth of the Gods: Against the Heavens and Sanctification". The conflict between the modern world and the world of fairy tales is full of creativity. The author is also a well-known old master. It is very interesting The subject matter, bullet casings are also chasing.
