From Shuangjiang County, pass through the town of Mengku all the way north, pass through Iceland Lake and arrive at the famous Icelandic Village. Ancient tea collection of mountains and rivers of the spirit show, looking for the traces of tea jun chasing authentic tea, it is already the 5th year in Iceland, the changes here can be described as earth-shaking.
In addition to the large trees at the mouth of the village that are still leafy, the original site of the old village has been relocated and the vegetation is being restored, and the Icelandic tea trees on the hillside are more and larger than in previous years, and those precious ancient tea trees are hung with protection plates.
A Nanmeng River has raised the Mengku Eighteen Villages, but also raised a "Pu'er Tea Queen", tea people drink a pot of pure Icelandic ancient tree tea, often need to move the mountain efforts, Icelandic old village tea is more famous than need to say more. In the Icelandic village where the leaves can be picked and sold, the tea seeker found that although there is more rain this year and the tea production is large, there are fewer workers frying tea and making tea, and there are fewer stir-fried tea pots with black smoke!
In the view of Zhao Yuxue, who has been making tea in Iceland for 20 years, these changes are the key to the Icelandic village and Icelandic tea to consolidate its hegemonic position and climb new heights.
Zhao Yuxue grew up in iceland since childhood, and the Icelandic old village hidden in the mountains was still very backward, and every household guarded the small house with black fire, and Icelandic tea was still unknown. The young Zhao Yuxue began to wander outside, engaging in engineering, running brick factories, and doing small business. In 2003, Zhao Yuxue, who went south and north and worked hard to earn some money, returned to the old village in Iceland. With outside insights, he put all his savings accumulated over the years into tea cultivation and production.
At that time, in icelandic villages, five or six yuan and one kilogram of ancient tree tea fresh leaves were not collected, Zhao Yuxue had to use horses to drive tea to rush to The Mountain Road to Go to Boshang Town in Linxiang District to catch the street, after selling tea, he went to the tea factory to learn and go to the experts to ask. Step by step, from Shuangjiang to Menghai, and then to Guangdong and Fujian, Zhao Yuxue went through the tea producing areas inside and outside the province.
During this period, ancient tree tea has become the benchmark of Pu'er tea, and icelandic laozhai tea with historical background has also attracted more and more attention, especially in just a few years from 2011 to 2015, the price of Icelandic laozhai has risen 40 times, and the villagers even only need to pick fresh tea to get huge sums of money.

Zhao Yuxue quipped that when many people built new houses and bought luxury cars, he also began to buy and buy! He loves new equipment too much, and whenever he looks at some new machines, he has to buy them back to try. From the traditional iron pot to the coal-burning chaotian pot, and then to today's fully automatic electromagnetic chaotian pot, Zhao Yuxue changed the five generations of killing machines.
Productivity! Zhao Yuxue mentioned the word to Xun Chajun more than once. Zhao Yuxue carefully debugged the equipment and planned the operation process of machine frying and kneading. The difference in technology formed by the induction cooker with precise temperature control and even stir-frying and the wood-fired pot that burns wood with experience and stir-fryes tea by feel makes each batch of Icelandic tea have the same standard and greatly improves production efficiency. In previous years, roasting tea until the early morning has become an interesting story in Zhao Yuxue's mouth, before 9 o'clock every night, all the work of the day is done, everyone rests on time, and keeps their energy vigorous.
The new machine attracted the attention of many villagers, "in addition to watching the liveliness, but also to the doorway", Zhao Yuxue carefully answered everyone's questions, made suggestions, and made ideas, and his initial production became a test point and promotion station for various "high-tech" in the village. That row of woks has now become a decoration in the corner, and now only if customers repeatedly request it, Zhao Yuxue will make a fire to fry a pot of tea and taste it!
Zhao Yuxue feels that tea technology has brought about an increase in productivity, and after the production efficiency of the whole village has increased, the tea in Iceland has its own standards in terms of quality and taste.
We all know that Iceland is expensive, who knows the taste of Iceland? On the tea mountain in Iceland's old village, Zhao Yuxue touched the centuries-old tea tree and said that he liked some of the tea factories in Menghai the most, the beautiful glass drying shed, the tall green killing machine, the standardized tea making process, and the quality of the tea produced on the assembly line was also very good. In the future, he will plan well, build a high-standard primary production house, and make all the standards of Icelandic tea, so that more people who like Iceland can drink Iceland's good tea.
