【Chapter 157】 High-end coffee
Xiao Feng and Xu Mengyao stayed in Zhukula Village for one night, enjoying the delicious coffee and unique local farm dishes, and then they returned home with satisfaction.
According to the agreement reached by Xiao Feng and Li Fusheng, after the coffee fertilization is ripe this year, Xiao Feng will purchase a certain number of coffee fertilizations from Zhukula Village to cultivate new coffee seedlings.
However, there are still two months before Zhu Kula's ancient coffee tree matures, so Xiao Feng had no choice but to return to Ginkgo Village first and wait patiently.
Before leaving, Li Fusheng gave Xu Mengyao a few coffee beans produced by ancient coffee trees as gifts. For these old people who love coffee, Xu Mengyao, who knows how to taste coffee, caught his eye. As for Xiao Feng, although he will be the main customer of Zhukula Village in the future, it is just like that, and the old man and him have no common language.
On the way back to Ginkgo Village, Xiao Feng was so depressed that he spent real money to buy coffee croquettes, but he did not get the old man's different view. Instead, Xu Mengyao talked to the old man for a while and was attracted by the old man as his confidant.
Xu Mengyao was very proud of this!
…………
When we returned to Ginkgo Village, it was evening. Xiao Feng and Xu Mengyao simply stood at the entrance of the kindergarten waiting for a few babies to get off school.
The little guy Nini didn't see Xiao Feng and Xu Mengyao for a day. She thought so tightly that she rushed up as soon as she met. Although she couldn't speak, the questions in her eyes were clearly asking, where have you two been going in the past two days?
‘I’m very angry, the consequences are serious!’
The little girl tried to make her eyes look vicious, but after seeing her mother and Uncle Feng, the smile on her face could no longer be held back.
"Let's go home!" Xiao Feng put Nini on his neck and said, "Mom and uncle have brought you a lot of fun toys. Go back and play with Sister Tongtong later!"
When the little girl heard about the toys, she immediately disappeared, and she hugged Xiao Feng's head and kept screaming excitedly!
As the sun sets, the sunlight stretches the figures of the three people, which makes Xiao Feng feel very relaxed and comfortable.
Although Nini is not Xu Mengyao's biological child, Xiao Feng and Xu Mengyao both regard it as their own. Nini grew up with Xu Mengyao since childhood and had a very deep relationship with her. After coming to Ginkgo Village, the sensitive and fragile little girl was favored by Xiao Feng in every way, and she had already regarded Xiao Feng as the image of a father she had always imagined in her heart.
When I returned home, I was so happy that all kinds of wood products and windmills sent by the villagers from Zhu Kula were given to a few dolls. The house became much more lively for a while.
When I went to Zhu Kula this time, Xiao Feng specially bought stationery, toys and snacks for the children in the village. The mountain people were hospitality, so they naturally did not want to take Xiao Feng's gift for free, and gave many gadgets from the mountains back and forth.
If Xiao Feng hadn't said that his home was also in the mountains and that there was no shortage of wild game such as pheasants and hares, I'm afraid the Grand Cherokee's trunk would have been filled with a lot of meat products made by Zhu Kula villagers.
In fact, Zhu Kula is the same as Ginkgo Village, which was not yet open before. The villagers live a self-sufficient life. Although they are a little poor, they can easily calm their hearts.
However, from Li Fusheng's mouth, Xiao Feng knew that a coffee company in southern Yunnan Province was planning to develop Zhu Kula's brand value. I believe that in a while, earth-shaking changes will happen there, right?
After dinner, Xu Mengyao couldn't wait to offer her treasure. She took out her coffee machine and cooked the Zhukula coffee beans she brought back today in the main hall.
Although the Xiao family may not like coffee, everyone attaches great importance to Xu Mengyao's face.
After observing this period of time, Xiao Feng finally understood that Xu Mengyao had already conquered the Xiao family with her unique personal charm. Her current status at home is much higher than that at Xiao Feng.
Originally, the old man at home felt that Xu Mengyao was older than Xiao Feng, but after spending a long time with her, her relationship with the elderly was meticulous. Every time she lost, she would bring many things to the elderly, such as foot bathtubs, massage chairs, clothes, etc., which made the elderly smile.
In addition, no matter how busy Xu Mengyao is in work, she would greet the two old men sooner or later. Over time, the dissatisfaction in the two old men had already disappeared.
As for the rest of the family, in the face of Xu Mengyao's noble temperament and strong affinity, there was no room for resistance and had long been lost. Now, Xu Mengyao's words at home are much more useful than Xiao Fengshen.
This time, Xu Mengyao wanted to offer treasures. Even if they didn’t know much about coffee, how could they have the idea of escaping in the face of battle?
Now, after dinner, no one left the old house, sat in the main room chatting and watching TV, watching Xiao Feng, who was working as a coolie, moved the heavy coffee machine from the second floor room to the main room.
Compared to the convenience of instant coffee, coffee made with coffee beans is naturally much more troublesome. After all, it is quite complicated to turn grains of coffee beans into coffee powder dissolved in water.
This time, all the coffee beans brought back from Zhukula Village have been roasted by villagers using ancient methods. Xu Mengyao only needs to use a grinder to grind the coffee into powder and put it in the coffee machine.
Xu Mengyao's coffee machine is a relatively complex Belgian royal coffee pot. The manufacturer is the famous Italian coffee, and it is one of the limited editions, with a market price of more than 2,000 euros.
Xiao Feng couldn't see the difference between this coffee machine and an ordinary coffee machine. Perhaps in the opinion of coffee controller, this coffee machine is just like Chinese people drinking tea, and it pays great attention to the quality of tea sets, right?
Xu Mengyao makes coffee at home, so she naturally doesn’t use ordinary mountain spring water. Xiao Feng’s space spiritual spring is available at home, including cooking rice, making tea, etc.
The Belgian pot, which features siphon coffee pot and moka pot, is full of seesaw fun in the performance process, and it combines several natural forces: fire, steam, pressure, and gravity, which makes the operation of the Belgian Royal coffee pot feel more visible.
Therefore, when Xu Mengyao began to ignite the fire and make coffee, the beautiful machine itself was a grand performance under the influence of heat, steam and other factors.
Compared with the unity of man and nature in Chinese tea ceremony, the Belgian pot is more like a perfect combination of humanities and machinery, making the Xiao family, who saw this performance for the first time, feel novel.
Not to mention anything else, this alone makes everyone look forward to the coffee that is about to be released!
I have to say that after the coffee is ready, even Xiao Feng, a guy who is not very interested in coffee, feels full of fragrance.
Compared with the coffee brewed in Zhukula Village, after using Space Spirit Spring, these Zhukula coffees have a stronger taste, a faint fragrance, and a sweet aftertaste.
Originally, Xiao Feng felt that coffee would not be accepted by the Xiao family who was used to drinking tea, but it might be because of the good taste of Zhu Kula coffee and Xu Mengyao's superb cooking skills that made the Xiao family praise this kind of coffee!
"Didn't Xiaofeng say that he should cultivate coffee and build a coffee garden? As long as he can cultivate such quality coffee, our Xiao family will have another new profit project!" After drinking the coffee, Xiao Tao immediately asserted.
As a half-city person who has lived in the city for more than ten years, Xiao Tao has drank a lot of coffee for various reasons. The handmade coffee in the coffee shop is not as good as Xu Mengyao's cooking of Zhukula coffee today.
Although Xiao Tao has never drunk the so-called top-grade coffee, in his opinion,
If the Xiao family can cultivate this kind of coffee, from Xiao Tao's perspective, they will not have to worry about sales.
According to Xiao Tao's understanding, more than two-thirds of the 80 restaurants and hotels that cooperate with Xiaojia Farm have opened cafes, and they are all very high-end cafes that specialize in selling handmade coffee. With previous cooperation experience, it is not difficult for Xiaojia's coffee to be entered into these cafes, and the price of high-quality coffee is also very exciting.
"The coffee cooked by Mengyao is really delicious, it's great!" Sun Qingmei gave a thumbs up to her future sister-in-law, not hiding her love at all.
As for the old people who are used to drinking tea, this is their first time tasting coffee, the aromatic aroma and the aftertaste of Zhukula coffee still praise them.
"Thank you for your love so much. Let's make more coffee when you have time!" Seeing that everyone liked it quite a bit, Xu Mengyao smiled like a flower and said, "Xiaofeng, you have to hurry up. The task of whether we can drink high-quality coffee in the future will fall on you!"
Because of various high-end ingredients in Xiao Family Farm, Xu Mengyao now has inexplicable confidence in Xiao Feng, thinking that Xiao Feng will definitely be able to cultivate high-quality coffee.
As soon as Xu Mengyao said this, the eyes of the whole family fell on Xiao Feng, which immediately made him feel stressed!
"I try my best!" Xiao Feng had no choice but to raise his hand and surrender.
"What should I do? You must!" This time, the old man was unreasonable and said with a stern face: "Take out the enthusiasm of doing experiments in the vegetable garden and mountain pond, and don't be too playful all day!"
The old man also felt that Xiao Feng was in such a state over the past few months, so he took this opportunity to move and don’t be lazy.
After a few words, Xiao Feng had no choice but to take the order and put more attention on the construction of the coffee garden. In addition, he also had to find more high-quality coffee varieties to enrich the product structure of the coffee garden.
The planned coffee garden planting area will reach 10,000 mu, which is not cost-effective for Xiao Feng, who is preparing to engage in high-end production. Therefore, Xiao Feng plans to introduce more famous coffee varieties in the world. After the transformation of Zizhu Space, it will form its own unique flavor and eventually build the world's top coffee origin.
Therefore, in the next autumn and winter, Xiao Feng had to transform himself into a coffee planting expert, study the differences and advantages of various coffee varieties in depth, and select varieties that can be grown in Ginkgo Village.
