Jinjiang genuine 38
Yan Bin continued to move forward. The sweet fragrance of osmanthus filled the air all around him. He raised his arm and smelled it, and felt that his clothes were stained with the fragrance of osmanthus.
I used to hate the smell of perfume, but now I think it's not so bad.
The scenery along the way is also beautiful, with a dazzling array of flowers in brilliant colors, standing upright in bunches and groups on the flower stalks.
Every few steps, there were tourists stopping to take pictures, with smiles on their faces. There was laughter everywhere, and it was obvious that they were very satisfied with the scenery here.
As Yan Bin walked, he looked at the tall and dense trees on both sides of the road. All he saw was lush green; the gorgeous flowers under the trees were dazzling.
He breathed in the rich sweet-scented osmanthus fragrance floating in the air, and felt that his inner anxiety seemed to have dissipated a lot.
Perhaps, these flowers, plants and trees can really heal people's mood.
Yan Bin closed his eyes and exhaled heavily.
In fact, his mental state has been very bad recently. When he thinks about the money he lost from the milk tea shop, he becomes so anxious that he can't sleep at night. He has been suffering from insomnia for several months and his hair is falling out in clumps.
He didn't dare tell his family about his loss of money, for fear of making them worry.
Parents are old and should not worry about their own affairs anymore.
However, the pressure was too great for him to bear alone.
Yan Bin raised his hand and wiped his face, trying his best not to think about it.
Now that things have come to this, we should think carefully about a way out.
He looked around, at the young tourists and the bustling crowd - this might be his way out.
Yan Bin took a deep breath and walked forward along the wide road.
When he arrived at the artificial lake, he was completely stunned by the giant tropical aquatic plant, Victoria amazonica.
In more than 20 years, he had never seen such huge plants. Their thick rhizomes were connected under the water, and their leaves like small boats were scattered all over half of the lake, firmly occupying this area of water, full of dominance.
Yu Guangzhong saw many people taking pictures with cameras.
The trees on the shore and their drooping branches are reflected in the clear lake surface, giving the water a touch of emerald green; the koi in the lake shake their heads and tails, their colors are bright, and their scales sparkle in the sunlight, making people stop and take a look.
Yan Bin couldn't help but walk to the lake, and then saw his own reflection in the mirror-like lake surface.
He didn't look depressed or frowning, but his facial expression was relaxed, and there was even a barely noticeable smile on his lips.
Yan Bin raised his hand and touched the corner of his mouth. He didn't even expect this.
Here, bathing in the beautiful scenery of lakes and mountains, one can really feel relaxed.
It is like carving out a piece of pure land in the noisy world, providing a place for people to rest after being busy and exhausted physically and mentally.
He walked along the water promenade, ignoring the crowded crowds, and took in the entire lake view.
bamboo forest.
Yan Bin felt a different feeling as soon as he entered here.
The noise around him gradually faded away. He looked back at the children playing on the shore and the adults who were caring for them. For a moment, he felt that they were in two different worlds.
He walked along the tree-lined path, looking up at the bamboo joints that towered into the sky.
The dense green bamboo leaves blocked the sunlight. When the wind blew, the bamboo leaves swayed in the wind, making a soft rustling sound, with a unique melody falling into the ears. From time to time, small birds landed on the treetops, chirping softly, and soon flew away with their wings flapping.
There is a faint bamboo fragrance lingering in the nose, refreshing the air in the lungs, with a pleasant fragrance.
Very quiet.
Very comfortable too.
Like everyone else, Yan Bin found a corner of a bench and sat down, leaning back in the chair, enjoying the rare tranquility.
I closed my eyes, and my mind was filled with thoughts.
He thought about the hardships he had experienced running a milk tea shop, and in order to save costs, he dismissed all his employees and took over everything himself.
You have to take care of your own hygiene and cashier yourself, and have to urge for takeout, get annoyed when drinks are spilled, and curse when machines break down...the ups and downs of it are hard for outsiders to understand.
However, gradually, the chaotic thoughts and painful memories in my mind faded away.
Amid the gentle rustling of the bamboo forest and the chirping of insects and birds, he let go of the pressure and burden buried deep in his heart, relaxed his tense nerves, cast aside all his worries and troubles, and accepted it all without reservation.
Days of insomnia had exhausted his body to the extreme. He soon fell into a deep sleep with his breathing becoming steady.
When Yan Bin woke up from the bench, he looked at the surrounding environment and the people sitting on the bench, and for a moment he didn't know where he was.
It took him a few seconds to realize that he was in Huajianji, where he was about to have an interview.
Oh, an interview?!
Yan Bin was startled and looked at the phone interface quickly.
He just slept for a long time. Would he miss the interview?
When I looked at the time, it was 13:50.
It was around 1:40 when he came from the artificial lake, which meant he had only slept for less than ten minutes.
10 minutes...
Yan Bin couldn't help but be stunned.
He really felt like he had slept for a very long time. After waking up, all the fatigue from the past few days was gone, and even his mental state was much better.
The headaches and tension caused by long-term insomnia are gone.
Yan Bin stood up and stretched his stiff shoulders and arms, and his passion for life was rekindled.
Since he can save the first 200,000 yuan by himself, he can save the second and third 200,000 yuan. What does a temporary loss matter?
Why keep thinking about the past? You should look forward instead.
If he took photos for comparison, he would find that his current state is completely different from that before he came. It is no exaggeration to say that he is like two different people.
It's not a change in appearance, but a change in mental outlook.
Within an hour of entering Huajianji, Yan Bin had gradually gotten rid of his original depressed, confused, anxious and insomniac self, and became enlightened, regaining his confidence and passion for life.
With one hour left, Yan Bin followed the crowd to the Osmanthus Garden.
The trees here are all over 4 meters tall osmanthus trees, which are more luxuriant than those on the roadside. Their crowns are round and full, and the rich fragrance fills the nose, sweet and intoxicating.
Yan Bin suddenly thought of the osmanthus honey he ate when he was a child. The taste was sweeter than honey and had a unique sweet fragrance.
I'm actually a little greedy.
There were a lot of people in front of him, so he walked to the sides.
Clusters of osmanthus flowers hang from the branches, and most of them are not the golden color seen on the roadside, but a brighter orange-yellow color, with an even color. The tiny flowers are plump and light, noble and elegant, and even better.
Yan Bin has not done much research on osmanthus. Even when making osmanthus drink, he only uses yellow osmanthus. Such a bright color is rarely seen.
Osmanthus fragrans.
He looked at the introduction board next to him. Osmanthus fragrans is a type of osmanthus tree. Its flowers are darker in color, showing orange-yellow or orange-red, and a few are vermilion. It has a strong smell and is often used as a food spice or extracted to make precious spices. It is relatively rare.
I see.
"Look ahead!" The girl next to her patted her friend on the shoulder and said excitedly, "See? What a big osmanthus tree!"
Another girl stood on tiptoe and said, "I see! I see the branches sticking out, with lots of osmanthus flowers. No wonder so many people go there. Let's go take a look too."
Yan Bin also followed.
In the middle of the Osmanthus Garden, there is a large open space enclosed by wide railings, with a huge osmanthus tree standing inside.
There were people outside the fence, all taking pictures with their phones.
Yan Bin did not squeeze in. He used his superior height to see the whole picture of the osmanthus tree and was a little surprised for a moment.
This osmanthus tree is really huge.
The tree is over 7 meters tall, nearly twice as tall as the trees next to it, and it exceeds the fence of the osmanthus garden. Visitors can see its outstretched crown from a long distance.
Unlike other osmanthus trees which have a single trunk, this one has twisted and forked branches, a full interior and strong branching ability.
Seven or eight thick branches extend outward wantonly, and the tree crown is dense, forming a giant umbrella with a canopy area of more than 100 square meters, covering the sky and blocking out the sun. It opens to almost flat, and is spread out above people's heads. If there were no fence restrictions, it would be enough to accommodate more than a hundred people to enjoy the cool below.
Such a huge coverage area is enough to be shocking.
Yan Bin looked up and saw that the flowers were a very bright orange-red color. Different from the orange-yellow color of the other osmanthus flowers he had just seen, this one was bright red, like a burning orange-red flame, and was exceptionally beautiful.
That's true.
The color of Zhuangyuanhong is the brightest among all osmanthus varieties. Different from the orange-yellow of other osmanthus varieties, its color is brighter, showing bright orange-red or even vermilion, and is extremely ornamental.
Not only is the color beautiful, Yan Bin discovered that it has a particularly large number of flowers, mostly in clusters of 3-4 flowers stacked together. Every time the wind blows, countless osmanthus flowers fall, as if it were raining an orange-red rain.
The ground was filled with orange-red osmanthus flowers, and even the green lawn and ground turned orange-red, mixed with a few golden colors, blending into a sea of osmanthus flowers.
And under this Zhuangyuanhong tree, the hundred-square-meter ground was covered with two-finger-thick osmanthus flowers, as if they would never fall.
There were exclamations everywhere. Someone touched the top of his head. In less than a minute, a lot of osmanthus flowers had fallen. He put them to his nose and smelled them, feeling completely intoxicated.
No one would have thought that just over a month ago, this osmanthus tree that amazed countless tourists and was full of osmanthus flowers still looked half-dead and might die in a few years.
However, now, everyone can see its vigorous vitality, dense spreading branches and leaves, and huge crown. It is the most precious and amazing tree in the entire osmanthus garden, attracting the attention of countless tourists.
Several retired grandfathers gathered around and said to a young man who was taking pictures with a professional camera: "Young man, do you know that this is the top-ranking red osmanthus, the most precious variety of osmanthus. It is rare to see such a large ancient tree.
You're in for a treat today."
I guess only the older generation who have raised and loved osmanthus can recognize this variety. Who of the young people today would study this?
"Grandpa, I know. My friend and I came here specifically to take pictures of it."
The young man held up the camera and looked back, smiling and saying, "The Internet is so developed nowadays, and the official WeChat public account and video account have all done popular science. We didn't know what kind of osmanthus tree this was before, but now we know."
"I'll tell you something you don't know, Grandpa. This ancient osmanthus tree was moved here from somewhere else. Its branches and leaves had withered before, and the director of Huajianji used many methods to save it and bring it back to its current state.
It even made the local news.”
As they talked, they set up their tripods under the stunned gazes of several old grandfathers and continued to photograph this rare 'Osmanthus rain falling'.
After listening to it, Yan Bin also did a search and found out that there was a lot of information about Hong Guihua, the top scholar in Huajianji.
The various beautiful pictures and popular science information about the protection of ancient trees are dazzling.
He was filled with emotion for a moment.
Although times have changed, the inheritance of knowledge will not disappear, but will be broadcast in a wider and more convenient way so that more people can know it.
Yan Bin came out of the Osmanthus Garden and looked at the time. There was still half an hour before the interview, so it was a good time to go back.
He glanced at the nearby glass greenhouse and the huge hemispherical building standing in the distance, feeling a little regretful.
I should have known to come at 12 o'clock.
There is no time to go this time, let's wait until next time.
Yan Bin walked back while thinking, even if the work was fruitless, finding such a treasure trove would be quite a gain.
Not only does it have unique scenery, it is also a rare place to relax.
He could clearly feel the change in his mentality.
If it were in the past, how could he have been in the mood to appreciate the scenery?
It's all due to the pressure of being overwhelmed by life.
While waiting outside the interview room, Yan Bin saw several other people waiting for interviews, all of whom looked anxious and nervous.
There is no doubt that most of the shops are losing money.
"Brother, how many months has your store been open?" a middle-aged man came over and asked.
"Half a year." Yan Bin said.
"It's only been three months! Alas, I lost hundreds of thousands of dollars. I really can't do it anymore. I regret it now. I regret it to death."
Nowadays, the bonus period of milk tea shops has passed, and now only one-tenth or one-twelfth of the money can be earned.
It’s not like around 2015, when it was a hot market and basically everyone could make money.
Yan Bin looked at the other person's annoyed expression and anxious pacing, and it was as if he saw himself when he first arrived.
He was like this then, drowning in regret and pain, but things were different now.
What has happened is over and cannot be undone; we can only find ways to make amends.
So, he should try his best to succeed in the interview.
Yan Bin took a deep breath and straightened his collar and hem.
The clothes had a sweet osmanthus scent, which slowly relaxed his tense mood.
"The next interviewee is Yan Bin."
When Yan Bin heard his name, he walked into the interview room calmly.
The interviewers were two ladies.
A very young man, who looks to be in his early 20s, with a pretty face, and is prettier than many celebrities. He is actually the director of Huajianji!
The other one looked to be around 30 years old, with capable manners. When his eyes looked at him, there was a hint of sharpness that made Yan Bin feel as if he was being seen through.
He suppressed his surprise, remained calm, and tried to answer the interviewer's questions.
In just a few words, Wang Yun got to know Yan Bin's basic information and business situation clearly. She also knew the other party's losses, but from the perspective of his mental state, he was not bad.
Unlike others, he is not angry or anxious.
Emotions are contagious.
Especially as a store manager, he is a role model for the store employees, and his mental outlook will greatly affect the state of the store employees.
Wang Yun: "Are there any photos of the store? Let's take a look."
Yan Bin said quickly: "Yes."
After finding the photo, hand over the phone.
He also hired someone to design the decoration. It has an Instagram style, is clean and tidy, and has some green plants.
But Ye Han and the others were not concerned about this.
They flipped through them one by one and saw photos of the inside of the workbench.
There are special shelves in the cabinet with raw materials neatly arranged. The milk is labeled with the expiration date and needs to be disposed of on the same day after opening.
Ye Han nodded slightly.
That's right, they are concerned about food safety.
Some milk tea shops use expired milk, fruits that have been cut and stored for more than two days, and various raw materials are thrown around randomly. There is often unprocessed garbage in the cabinets, which will breed a lot of bacteria and attract flies.
Ye Han would never allow such problems to occur in his beverage shop.
She handed the phone back and smiled: "One last question, if I asked you to create a special drink for Huajianji, which one would you choose?"
"It's okay, you can think about it before answering."
Yan Bin almost immediately thought of osmanthus.
A minute later, he replied, "Osmanthus Oolong."
Wang Yun: "Why not osmanthus milk tea or osmanthus honey tea? From the market perspective, the type I'm talking about will be more popular."
Yan Bin: “The pure one is the best, milk tea will suppress the taste of osmanthus.
The osmanthus flowers of Huajianji are bright in color and sweet in fragrance. Paired with the sweetness and crispness of oolong tea and a small amount of osmanthus honey, the floral fragrance is rich and the taste is perfect. It can retain the original characteristics of osmanthus to the greatest extent, and at the same time has the effects of reducing fat, removing oil, and digesting food and relieving greasiness.
I personally think this is the best combination.”
Ye Han and Wang Yun looked at each other and highlighted his name.
At 6 o'clock that evening, Yan Bin received the acceptance letter from Huajianji.
The salary structure is: basic monthly salary of 9,000 yuan + 1% commission of monthly sales, including food and accommodation.
When he received the news, he was so excited that he wanted to go out for a run. The salary was higher than he expected!
Generally, the monthly sales of top milk tea shops can reach 250,000 to 300,000, but Huajianji’s traffic is obviously higher, and its sales may reach 400,000. In that case, his salary would be 13,000+ per month, including food and accommodation.
After a year, wouldn’t the previous losses be almost paid off?
Very good.
It’s really great.
Yan Bin was so excited that he couldn't sleep until two in the morning. He woke up at six the next morning and went to Huajianji to report early in the morning.
After the store manager was appointed, he was responsible for a series of issues including processing certificates and recruiting store clerks.
As for the full set of equipment, there is no need to buy it. Yan Bin’s previous milk tea shop had them all. They have only been used for less than half a year and are 90% new. You only need to do some maintenance when using them.
Ye Han bought the equipment for 10,000 yuan, placed it in the warehouse, and covered it with a dust cover.
The renovations are still ongoing, but there are still many things that need to be arranged in advance.
For example, the design of take-out packaging bags and beverage cups, and the determination of customized quantities; the main series - the removal of osmanthus stems, cleaning and other processing, and the production of osmanthus honey.
In addition to the series of beverages, some special pastries may also be launched, such as: osmanthus cake, osmanthus water chestnut cake, crystal osmanthus cake, osmanthus sweet lotus root, etc.
Ye Han "dug" out a pastry chef from the owner of Linjian Teahouse. The chef has been making pastries for over 30 years and can make all kinds of Jiangnan pastries. The taste of his pastries is different as soon as you taste them.
Actually it’s not really poaching, it was the other party who recommended it to me.
It all started when Mr. Feng, the owner of the teahouse, came over some time ago to exchange feelings and filled a glass of water in his own teacup.
Wow! Boss Feng tasted it and found that the brewed tea was clear and fragrant, much better than the one he brewed with mineral water.
Since then, Boss Feng has been transporting water from here every day and has accumulated a lot of repeat customers.
Boss Feng: "It's only courtesy. I'll give this Master Yu to you. I managed to get him from somewhere else, but I haven't used him yet."
Ye Han asked Master Yu to make an osmanthus cake. It was soft and delicious, with a strong floral fragrance and an exquisite shape. It was indeed different.
I made four baskets of osmanthus cake and shared them all among the employees, leaving not a single piece behind.
Liu Yi wanted to lick all the residue on his hands clean: "Wow, it's delicious, how can it be so delicious? It's only a little sweet, but it makes me feel happy when I eat it.
It’s chewy but not sticky, and has a strong sweet-scented osmanthus fragrance. If I could eat it every day, I would wake up laughing in my dreams!”
Liu Yufen: "It's really delicious, better than the old brand we ate at last time."
Ye Han often invites employees to cook special meals in the evening, and sometimes he prepares pastries and the like.
Liu Yufen clearly remembers that the cakes in that shop were very expensive. Four pieces of osmanthus cakes cost 30 yuan.
Master Yu also tasted a piece himself and looked a little surprised: "Actually, this is also a breakthrough for me. The sweet-scented osmanthus flavor of the pastries I made before was not that strong. It should be related to the raw materials."
The sweet osmanthus flowers at Huajianji are absolutely unique in their richness and sweetness.
Liu Yufen was very interested in this aspect. Whenever she had time, she would help Master Yu and learn how to make osmanthus honey.
After the two of them are done, seal it and refrigerate it. It can be stored for two or three months, and then you can take it out and use it directly.
All affairs are carried out in an orderly manner according to everyone's division of labor.
On the afternoon of October 24, Wang Yun came to report, "Director, the VIP annual cards are almost sold out, and we need to make a second batch; there are 400 ordinary annual cards left, and it is recommended that we also increase the number."
In less than two weeks, the 1,000 annual passes were about to be sold out, and the 600 ordinary annual passes were also sold out.
What’s more, more than 50% are electronic cards, which is equivalent to more than 3,000 annual cards sold.
The sales volume surprised Ye Han a little.
Ye Han calculated and said, "Then we will customize 1,200 VIP cards and 500 regular cards."
Wang Yun: "Okay, Director."
Two days later, the Guinness World Records application made three months ago was officially approved, causing quite a stir.
At one time, many botanical gardens received this news.
All future updates will be at 21:00~
