Next, Lu Qingyi saw Cang Muchen carefully grinding the beans into powder. Soon after the water boiled, he began to wrap the brown powder with cotton cloth and start brewing.
As the boiling water is poured in, the aroma of coffee begins to spread.
Lu Qingyi had never smelled such a fragrance before, and was stunned for a moment.
"Isn't this spice?"
This fragrance doesn't smell like a drink at all, but instead smells like exotic spices.
It's her favorite scent.
Cang Muchen smiled and said nothing, and just continued the movements of his hands.
When a cup of coffee was served, Lu Qingyi was shocked.
"Is there any milk in this?"
Nowadays, milk is not a rare thing in Shangjing City. The wealthy families in Shangjing City order some fresh milk almost every day.
Cang Muchen is not lacking in this thing.
"Try it first before talking."
Cang Muchen pushed the coffee in front of her and asked her to taste it first before talking.
Lu Qingyi carefully picked it up and took a sip. It was a strange taste. It felt very bitter at first, but later she felt it was pleasant again. This was brought about by drinking tea or other things she used to drink.
What comes is a completely different experience.
After a few more sips, Lu Qingyi basically fell in love with the taste.
"What did you call this just now?" This taste is really interesting.
Cang Muchen looked at her with a faint smile, "I think you might like coffee."
Lu Qingyi liked it, and she smiled and nodded, "Yes."
"Then do you think if this kind of thing is sold together with snacks, will anyone buy it?"
Cang Muchen had thought about this idea before, but because this kind of thing cannot be provided to everyone like milk tea, his idea was still in the form of a beauty hall.
Only supplying it to some specific people can also make things more refined, and this opportunity is great now.
The shop her mother gave her was just right for this business.
Her temperament is also suitable for doing this, and it will also broaden her social circle.
But Lu Qingyi has never done business and doesn't understand any of this. Now that Cang Muchen asked her this, she couldn't give an answer, "I don't know people who go to the capital, so I can't give you this answer."
After saying this, Lu Qingyi thought again and seemed to understand Cang Muchen's intention, "You...are you planning to let me do this business?"
Seeing that she finally figured it out, Cang Muchen nodded seriously.
"Compared with other businesses, I think this is more suitable for you. Of course, you are not asked to do it yourself. You only need to go to the shop every day or every other day and we will find the master to do the rest.
That’s it.”
"But the premise is that you have to understand coffee yourself, otherwise how can you resonate with others?"
Lu Qingyi knew this, but she really didn't expect that he would bring the business to her.
"Did you have this plan when you gave me those books?"
At that time, he knew that he wanted to start a business, so he sent so many technical books over, which turned out to be waiting for her here.
But Cang Muchen's answer is not like this.
"It still depends on your choice. Since you chose pastries, this must be more suitable for you. If you have other choices, then coffee will definitely not be paired with other things."
When she went back, Lu Qingyi took the beans that Cang Muchen gave her.
She also brought back things for grinding and making coffee. After returning, she learned how to grind beans carefully and make coffee by herself, just like Cang Muchen did before.
Every day there would be a special fragrance wafting out of her house, and one day Mrs. Lu finally found out about it.
She hurried over to Lu Qingyi's house as soon as the scent appeared. After entering the house, she sniffed it carefully, only to see her daughter sitting aside with a cup in her hand, sipping something.
Mrs. Lu walked up to her and said, "Qingyi, what kind of fragrance is in your house? Mom thinks it's so special."
When Mrs. Lu said these words, her expression was still controlled as much as possible. She did not let Lu Qingyi see that she was worried because of this matter.
After all, this kind of fragrance is too unique in Mrs. Lu's opinion, and when she thinks of the private things in the back house, she is a little scared.
Although the Lu family is simple, it seems that there are people with impure thoughts. If someone really uses scent to condom their daughter, she will never allow such a thing to happen.
So many things that happened before really cast a shadow on her.
Lu Qingyi didn't expect that the scent would even attract her mother, so she quickly pulled her to sit down.
"Mom, you're here just in time. I have something to do here and want to hear your thoughts. Please sit down for a while and I'll be right back."
After saying that, Lu Qingyi hurriedly went to make coffee again. The aroma smelled even stronger now. Mrs. Lu couldn't help but walk over to see what she was doing.
The closer she got to where Lu Qingyi was, the stronger the fragrance became.
"Qingyi, what are you doing?"
Mrs. Lu couldn't help but frowned when she looked at the medicinal soup-like things in Lu Qingyi's hands.
She was sure that the scent came from this thing, but it was obviously like medicinal soup. She really felt a little worried. She even wondered if she had neglected her daughter so much that she started to mess with it.
these things.
Lu Qingyi turned around and smiled, feeling even happier when she saw her mother in this state.
"Mom, what are you thinking about now?"
She bet that her mother must be thinking about those things that are not there to scare her.
In fact, now that I think about it, if Cang Muchen hadn't taken her to see those coffee trees at the beginning, she might not have known what a mess they were, and her thoughts in her heart were definitely not much less than those of her mother.
Sure enough, her mother confirmed her suspicion after speaking.
"I'm wondering why these decoctions are so fragrant and why they taste different from the decoctions I drank in the past. Qingyi, are you feeling uncomfortable somewhere? If you feel uncomfortable, tell your mother. Don't resist by yourself, and don't believe those barefoot doctors.
Mom knows a few good doctors, and tomorrow Mom will ask them to come over and take a look at it for you."
Mrs. Lu is really afraid that her daughter will be deceived and her body will be damaged by doing these things, and then there will be nothing left.
Lu Qingyi knew that she definitely didn't mean anything good, and when she heard these words, she couldn't help but laugh.
"My dear mother, this is not medicine, this is coffee!"
