Chapter 52 Li Xiang’s Coffee Tasting Conference
"Why do you need so much for a trial drink?" Li Xiang was a little confused.
He Zhixiang smiled and said: "A little more will give you a comprehensive understanding and ensure the quality." He also came here to cooperate with Li Xiang after witnessing his strong ability to carry goods last time.
"Yes." Li Xiang nodded and welcomed the other party in.
Then, the two of them grinded coffee at home.
"There are actually three types of beans I brought this time. These bags are called Typica, which is the flagship product of my coffee farm. It is also called the old variety of arabica coffee. This bean has a very rich aroma, a very soft taste, and also has a slight Sweet and fruity taste. ”
"The kind here is called Caturra. It is a bean grown on a small coffee tree. It has dense branches and thick leaves. In addition to its rich aroma and taste, it sometimes also has some nutty and chocolate flavors."
"This kind is called Katim..."
He Zhixiang is very familiar with his own products and can introduce them in detail. These beans are all roasted, and each variety is divided into dark roast, medium roast and light roast.
Lightly roasted ones have a lighter taste and higher acidity, while dark roasted ones have a heavier texture, lower acidity and mellow taste.
Medium roast is somewhere in between.
Each type of beans is suitable for making different flavors of coffee, and customers can choose according to their own preferences.
Let me go, Li Xiang used to drink instant coffee when he was working as a cow and horse. How could he know this? He Zhixiang was stunned when he said it.
However, he remained calm and just secretly noted it down. Then when he tasted each coffee, he secretly confirmed it and understood it carefully. Sure enough, he could easily distinguish the different tastes and flavors of these coffees.
Since the beans were being identified, the two of them drank pure coffee without any ingredients.
Li Xiang used to think that the prepared coffee drinks sold in coffee shops had first-class taste, such as latte, mocha, cappuccino, etc. But now after tasting these pure coffees, he suddenly felt that this is the correct way to drink coffee. .
He is a first-level transcendent with keen senses. This sense also includes taste buds and smell, so it is not surprising that he can quickly master the ability to taste coffee beans.
However, when it fell into the eyes of He Zhixiang, he was amazed.
Because at the beginning, Li Xiang hardly spoke, and his eyes showed "clear stupidity". It was obvious that he didn't understand coffee, so he explained more carefully.
But later, He Zhixiang discovered that Li Xiang became more talkative and "active" and even discovered some flavors that he had not tasted before.
"This is the perfect combination of coffee tasting and live streaming!" He Zhixiang felt that he really came to the right place this time!
The two of them were drinking coffee at home. The aroma was strong and drifted far away in the wind. Some villagers were attracted as they passed by the intersection. In fact, it was not just the aroma that attracted them, but the stop. Luxury cars at the door.
There were also some villagers who had sharp eyes before. When they saw a luxury car driving towards Li Xiang's house, they told people: "Probably another big boss came to Xiangyou for cooperation."
The other party said: "How about we go and see the excitement?"
"Let's go, go together, go together."
Now in the slack season, everyone has nothing to do. Suddenly there is such a melon in the village, so many people come here. There was even an aunt who was holding a washbasin. She was going to wash clothes by the stream. She heard someone talking about it halfway and came over curiously. Not even the clothes were washed.
Li Xiang took out some pastries and shared them with everyone. At the same time, he also invited everyone to drink coffee together. However, the villagers basically couldn't drink this kind of thing. Many people vomited after taking a sip: "It's so bitter, what's so good about it?"
"It tastes bad."
"This coffee should be delicious with a little sugar and milk, right? I saw people drinking it like this on TV, and some beauties even stirred it like this with their orchid fingers..." An aunt began to imitate the heroine in a TV series, It immediately made everyone laugh.
Li Xiang laughed and said: "Generally speaking, adding some sugar and milk makes it more delicious. However, adding sugar and milk is high in calories and will make you fat. In addition, it will affect the original taste of the coffee."
Whether to add toppings or not can only be a matter of personal preference. Everyone has their own taste buds, so whatever you think tastes good to you is fine.
Li Xiang also had pure milk and white sugar at home, so he took them out and let everyone use them. Regardless of whether they taste good or not, they were all happy for a while.
I have to say that after adding sugar and milk, many people’s eyes lit up.
"My dear, it turns out the coffee tastes like this, and it tastes really good!"
"Lao San, did you add too much milk? You should be like me, add less, and then you can still make a show."
He Zhixiang looked quite envious, because he felt that Li Xiang was more down-to-earth.
Although he runs several coffee farms, he actually comes from a wealthy family. Even when he visited coffee farms before, he had never had such close contact with farmers.
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
The driver who brought him here twitched at the corner of his mouth, thinking that if his colleagues knew that his chairman was drinking coffee with a group of farmers, they would really be shocked.
This driver friend actually had some complaints in his heart. He felt that the boss should not seek cooperation with Li Xiang, because although Li Xiang has a certain influence, he only has a few hundred thousand fans. In the final analysis, he is just a small Internet celebrity. In addition, Li Xiang has a pastoral style. Blogger, to put it harshly, is a mud-legged person. If you find such a person to carry goods, will the sales be good?
Shouldn't it be better to find those particularly petty bourgeois bloggers, especially some beautiful women, to bring goods?
Li Xiang watched everyone drinking coffee enthusiastically, and thought to himself that it would be great if Cai'er was here, she would definitely like it.
In the end, Li Xiang and He Zhixiang negotiated the terms of cooperation. Li Xiang was satisfied with the quality of his coffee and was willing to take on the job. He had just built a kitchen and spent "a lot of money". Now he was already short of money. He Zhixiang came over to give money. The quality of the products was also quite good. How could he refuse?
The appearance fee is 10,000, plus a 25% commission, which is based on sales. The more sales, the greater the share.
The villagers were naturally envious when they heard that Li Xiang was going to make a lot of money again and that the big boss would pick him up in a special car and provide him with food and accommodation.
"Brother, when are you free?" He Zhixiang asked.
Considering that the super heavy snowfall was approaching, Li Xiang just wanted to make a quick decision because he had to go out of the province and go directly to the coffee farms in Yunnan Province to broadcast. So Li Xiang said: "I can do it, the sooner the better." < br>
He was afraid that in a few days, he would go live there and not be able to come back.
This heavy snowfall will affect a wide area and last for a long time, causing traffic paralysis in large areas. Due to the lack of experience in dealing with the situation in the south, highway closures and airport groundings are inevitable.
In addition, he wanted to save some time to prepare Maodong's supplies.
