Chapter 172 Hand Grinding Coffee

Zhao Changan knocked on the door of the archives director's office in confusion. Only after entering the room did he understand what was going on.

The elegant middle-aged woman in front of him was the one he met in Liu Qihua's office the day before yesterday.

Then, it is self-evident that the reason why she is looking for him is absolutely inseparable from Liu Qihua and this computer contract.

"Sit down, let's have some tea or coffee?"

Qi Xiu put down the documents in her hands, stood up, walked to the table, took out a disposable paper cup and asked.

"I drink coffee,"

Zhao Changan actually likes drinking tea.

Yue Lu's mother ran a freshly ground coffee shop and often gave them coffee beans. Over time, Li Shiya, who loved to stay up late, fell in love with drinking coffee.

Zhao Changan became Li Shiya's coffee bean grinder and coffee powder brewer.

In this era, Zhao Changan has not drank coffee for more than half a year. When he heard Qi Xiuyi's words, he couldn't help but sigh and wanted to taste the taste of the past.

Qi Xiu was slightly startled.

Because most of the people who came to her office, faced with her politeness, almost always said "I'm not thirsty" and "Thank you, I won't drink"——

Something like that.

Even if I drink it occasionally, I will also choose to drink tea.

He is the first person to talk about drinking coffee so frankly.

Qi Xiu glanced at Zhao Changan and saw a sigh on his face.

He was stunned again.

"Have a cup of coffee. As for such deliberate vicissitudes of life? I don't even think about how old I am!"

Qi Xiu cursed inwardly.

All in all, her first impression of Zhao Changan was that she had no impression of him, and her second impression was that she was a little unhappy.

I regret a little bit that I asked him what he was drinking and why? Just tell him the business directly and that would be the end of it!

"Director Qi, I will do it myself."

Seeing Qi Xiu going to get the coffee box, Zhao Changan walked over quickly: "How can this-"

Looking at the empty coffee box, Zhao Changan and Qi Xiu were both in a daze.

Only then did Qi Xiu remember that she had planned to grind some coffee beans when she got off work in the morning, but at noon she found out that Liu Qihua and Zhao Changan had signed a contract for 80 complete machines. She was so anxious that she forgot about it.

"This is so embarrassing!"

Qi Xiu's face turned red. She felt embarrassed in front of a child and felt very depressed.

"Director, you have a complete set of equipment here!"

Zhao Changan saw that there was a complete set of coffee grinding tools in the glass wall cabinet next to him, and a large glass contained more than half a bottle of coffee beans.

I can't help but feel my hands itching.

However, there are more small thoughts surging.

He directly opened the glass wall cabinet and took out the hand-grinding coffee machine, the glass bottle with coffee beans, and the filter paper cup,——

Qi Xiu frowned slightly.

However, he didn't say anything in the end. He sat back in his office chair and quietly watched Zhao Changan's performance.

Zhao Changan deliberately did not look at Qi Xiu's expression.

He first scooped out about 25 grams of coffee beans with a wooden spoon. He saw that the surface of the beans was chestnut color and they were lightly roasted coffee beans.

Coffee with this roasting degree can retain a certain floral and fruity aroma and sour taste in flavor.

"He is also a petty bourgeoisie who has not suffered much."

Zhao Changan cursed in his heart, put the coffee beans into the grinder, turned the handle, and started grinding.

Qi Xiu had no intention of reading the documents at this time, so she simply took out a fashion magazine and flipped through it.

Gradually, "Gululu" turned into "swish, swish, swish", and gradually turned into a "rustling" sound.

Zhao Changan has been shaking slowly and steadily, as steadily as an old dog.

The smell of coffee bean powder lingers in the office, with a hint of bitterness in the fragrance.

Zhao Changan continued grinding steadily.

The autumn sun outside the window shines warmly, and there are countless tiny floating dust swimming in the beam of light.

Like a beautiful still fragment.

After grinding, Zhao Changan took the electric teapot and went outside to get water.

People passing by several open offices stopped whatever they were doing and looked at him curiously.

When their eyes met, Zhao Changan nodded to them in a friendly manner, and the other party immediately smiled and nodded in return.

"This Qi Xiu is not easy. Ask Song Jing after school to see if she knows some inside information."

After collecting the water, he returned to the office and Zhao Changan began to boil the water.

Then I took the coffee pot and two coffee cups and went outside to clean them.

After cleaning, he returned to Qi Xiu's office, took out a piece of filter paper and put it in the filter cup, placed it on top of the coffee pot, took the hot water in the thermos bottle, cleaned the filter paper and coffee pot, and at the same time preheated the coffee pot and the thermos cup

.

Pour away the waste water, drain the coffee pot a little, and the water there will boil.

Zhao Changan carefully poured the coffee powder in the box into the filter paper cup, picked up the teapot, and started brewing in a fancy way.

Suddenly, as the coffee powder made a subtle "sizzling" sound when it came into contact with the hot water, a rich aroma filled the entire office.

Qi Xiu put down the magazine at some point and watched Zhao Changan making coffee with interest.

At this time, smelling this intoxicating aroma, my mouth watered. It must taste delicious!

Zhao Changan poured out enough water. When there was no obvious hot water in the filter paper cup, he glanced at Qi Xiu.

I couldn't help but smile a little in my heart.

Overall, the performance was quite successful.

I just don’t know how powerful this ‘Director Qi’ is. If it’s too small, I’ll really suffer a big loss from this strenuous performance!

"Gululu~"

The coffee pot was filled with nearly two cups of coffee.

This level is quite impressive.

"How often do you make coffee?"

Until now, Qi Xiu only knew that Zhao Changan was called Zhao Changan. He had written a few songs that sounded very good, and he had just signed a purchase contract of more than 600,000 yuan with his best friend Liu Qihua.

The rest are unknown.

At this time, I couldn't help but be curious, and the parents of a person who learned such a craft of making coffee at home were probably high-level intellectuals who were westernized.

Thinking of the song written by Zhao Changan, the identity of at least one of his parents seems to be ready to be revealed.

It should be a musical person, maybe even a music professor, or a musician!

"My family is poor,"

"It's nothing. Many respectable musicians don't like to pursue fame and fortune, but live in poverty and contentment." - Qi Xiu.

"Parents' names are unknown,"

‘That’s okay. Many respectable musicians don’t like to pursue fame and fortune, but are low-key and contented.’ – Qi Xiu.

"I am from a mountain city, a very backward mountainous area. My father graduated from high school and my mother did not graduate from junior high school. A few months ago, I was still working as a laborer at a construction site, cooking, and earning 600 yuan a month."

Qi Xiu was a little stunned. - What is going on?

"As for why I grind and brew coffee, it's not because I brew it often, but because I ranked first in science in this year's Central Province College Entrance Examination."

Here, Zhao Changan told a little lie without blushing.

He worked as a grinder and brewer for Li Shiya for at least seven or eight years.

"?"

Qi Xiu felt a little dizzy after hearing this.

I can't tell that this guy is the top scorer in the college entrance examination.

The top scorer in the college entrance examination is indeed very powerful.
