The old tea shop was re-invented by Gu Kaiwen, but the old tea shop consumed a limited amount of clean camellia every day, and it was impossible to maximize profits.

So, Gu Kaiwen thought of a way to maximize the benefits of Jingcao Tea.

‘Excluding the two ways to expand the old tea shop and sell Jinghe tea, maybe you can process Jinghe tea twice, make Jinghe tea into matcha drinks, matcha cakes, etc., so that the added value of Jinghe tea can be further increased.’ Gu Kaiwen was thinking in his heart.

In recent years, Matcha has become more and more popular and has a relatively high-end positioning.

For example, the prices of matcha drinks and matcha cakes are usually relatively high. A small matcha cake costs 30 or 40 yuan, and the raw tea leaves for making matcha should not be too good.

At least Gu Kaiwen has not heard of using famous tea as raw tea to make matcha.

If Jinghe tea is made into a matcha series product, as long as the taste is outstanding, Gu Kaiwen will naturally further increase the price of the corresponding product.

"Master Yun, I'll go out first." Gu Kaiwen thought of Matcha's idea and immediately started to act.

Matcha is something that grinds green tea into powder. Just buy a grinder and ordinary people can also make matcha.

However, be sure to buy a high-end grinder.

Otherwise, an ordinary grinder will definitely not be able to produce a fine enough matcha powder, which will affect the taste of matcha.

Gu Kaiwen bought a high-end grinder in Shafu Plaza and a lot of experimental materials before returning to the old tea shop to make matcha from clean camellia.

"Master Yun, do you know Matcha?" Gu Kaiwen asked.

Yun Zhongyang nodded, but said inappropriately, "That kind of thing has completely lost the tea's taste. Young Master, are you going to make matcha?"

Gu Kaiwen nodded in affirmation, "Well, I'm going to try making matcha with Jingcai." He said, adding two taels of Jingcai to the grinder.

According to the instructions of the grinding machine, Gu Kaiwen chose the grinding time to three minutes, so that the Jingcao tea leaves were completely ground into powder.

"Buzz buzz ~~~"

The grinder's motor makes a high-speed rotation sound.

Three minutes later, the grinder stopped working, and Gu Kaiwen carefully opened the grinding chamber, and he checked the crushing of matcha.

After a careful inspection, Gu Kaiwen nodded with satisfaction. This grinder is worthy of being a high-end product worth 3,000 yuan. The clean camellia tea after grinding is crushed very evenly and has almost no graininess.

Gu Kaiwen collected the matcha powder. He took out a box of milk ice cream from the refrigerator, then poured the matcha powder a little, and ate the ice cream together with the matcha powder.

"Huh!" Gu Kaiwen fed the milk ice cream mixed with matcha powder into his mouth, and he immediately tasted a different taste from ordinary matcha.

Although ordinary matcha has a green tea flavor, the taste is very dull.

Some of the average quality matcha has a light and greasy taste that is indescribable, and it is definitely not a popular taste.

However, the matcha powder made with Jingcao tea does not have the unpleasant and greasy taste, but has a fragrance that blooms in the mouth and a sweet taste that seems to be in the gentle spring light of the breeze, making people inexplicably intoxicated.

Gu Kaiwen opened another portion of milk ice cream, put some matcha powder, and handed it to Yun Zhongyang, "Master Yun, try it."

Yun Zhongyang did not refuse, so he took it and tasted it.

After nearly a minute, Yun Zhongyang showed a puzzled look, "This smell... I can't say it..."

"Okay, or not?" Gu Kaiwen asked about the essence.

"Okay! It's definitely good!" Yun Zhongyang said affirmatively, "Young boss, do you want to sell matcha?"

Gu Kaiwen shook his head, "No!"

What’s the difference between selling matcha directly and selling clean camellia?

"I am going to make matcha ice cream, matcha cake, matcha coffee, matcha milk tea, etc., and then sell it to the public." Gu Kaiwen expressed his plan.

Yun Zhongyang worried, "Why don't you want to buy another store?"

Gu Kaiwen shook his head, "No need. These things are very simple to make. Just build a small compartment in the backyard."

"Sell directly in the teahouse?" Yun Zhongyang said in confusion.

Gu Kaiwen still shook his head, "I am going to open an online store. As for the teahouse and the next door, it is sold in combination, as much as it can be sold."

"What about price?" Yun Zhongyang asked again.

"We are not sure for the time being. Let's set up the shelf first, then make the product, and then determine the price." Gu Kaiwen did not speak out randomly. Now that the product has not been released, it is indeed impossible to price randomly.

The next day, early in the morning, Gu Kaiwen began to browse the talent information network, and then recruited a qualified matcha chef. According to Gu Kaiwen's requirements, matcha chefs must be proficient in making cakes and then have a certain understanding of milk tea and coffee.

As for ice cream, Gu Kaiwen is planning to buy a smart ice cream maker, just like the ice cream maker used in Kaifeng Cuisine and Golden Arches Restaurant.

After some selection, Gu Kaiwen finally selected a young man who was half beggar.

At four o'clock that afternoon, half of the flowers arrived at the old teahouse as agreed.

"Hello, Master Hua." Gu Kaiwen took the initiative to stretch out his hand.

Hua Yiban reached out to hold Gu Kaiwen for a moment, "Hello, Mr. Gu." He responded, and then looked at the layout of the teahouse.

"Mr. Gu, please forgive me for taking the liberty. This is a teahouse, and it seems that there is no need for a pastry chef, right?" Hua Yiban asked first.

Gu Kaiwen responded, "This is indeed a teahouse. So, we need to make rich tea into matcha powder and then further process it into matcha products to create more value."

Hua Yiban said honestly, "Do you want to recycle the brewed tea leaves and process them into matcha powder again? If so, I will not accept this job."

It is undeniable that such a situation does exist in the matcha industry.

Facing the upright flower half, Gu Kaiwen directly denied, "Of course not. Let me introduce the situation of our old tea shop first."

Gu Kaiwen described the old story of the tea shop, Gu family tea shop, and the situation of clean camellia. After the other party nodded to express his understanding, Gu Kaiwen continued, "That is why we need to get involved in the field of matcha, so as to try our best to digest the inventory of camellia and create more economic value."
