Qizi cake

"What else? There are also many different views and answers.

"One tube has seven pieces or one lift, one for each of the seven cities, and the single piece has a mass of 357 grams." Commonly known as "wolfberry cake", this is generally recognized and accepted by the tea industry. The name of Qizi cake means "auspicious reunion" and has been recognized by folk aesthetics. But when it comes to the origin of "Qizi cake", it is really difficult to verify the real age. The search for answers in unofficial history can actually be traced back to the period of Zhou Wuwang. This unofficial history is not only wild, but also fake.

Wuhou's legacy comes from this little unofficial history article. The guy who put the "tea ancestor hat" on Zhuge Liang's head wrote it. He suspected that the people who wrote unofficial history were fooling around, or that it was written by modern people. I'm too lazy to research. It's not reliable anyway. I'm afraid even Sima Qian will be ashamed of this historical statement. Because, at that time, Yunnan may not even have words. When did Zhou Wuwang come?

People more than 3000 years ago. Did the "man" at that time know how to make seven cakes of tea? Old Liu Yu will definitely have nightmares. Tea trees are still being invented by nature. Where can we buy seven tea cakes? It is possible to have seven sons, but it is not true. Otherwise, this treasure land of Yunnan must be the cradle of world civilization.

Because history is too long, people who have no foundation can only guess to write history. Looking closely at the "Epang Palace Burning in March" in Historical Records is actually a guess, and of course I am also guessing and analyzing. Imagine, which big city in the world can withstand the burning in March? If man-made big cities stop working for a week at most. I killed the great Sima Qian and I dare not question it. A clear view of historical facts is rare in the long history. Historians can't, sometimes they can only write essays.

There is a reliable saying that it began in the Qing Dynasty. Why? In the middle of Qing Dynasty, Pu 'er tea became popular and became a tribute of the imperial court. Yunnan Pu 'er House has something to do with it, mainly two things:

1. Preparation of tribute tea,

Second, collect tea tax.

Of course, it is a public school that collects tea tax, so it needs a unit of measurement, and the quality of Qizi cake is determined. In ancient times, 84 pieces of tea were used as standard parts, and one horse contained 2 pieces of *** 168 pieces. It is convenient for the government to count the number of horses when collecting taxes. At present, the name of Qizi cake is generally accepted only by Pu 'er raw tea cake. Cooked tea is not entitled to enjoy the historical energy of this name.

Pu 'er tea and Shizheng tea in Qing history are also positive. Gongcha's ancestral home is in Yiwu. CreditEase's century-old history is also easy to verify. At that time, its proper name was not called "Qizi cake", but it generally referred to "round tea".

At the same time, there is also a kind of tea tube. Pu 'er tea in the Qing Dynasty was named after this firm, which is equivalent to the current trademark. For example, Song Xiao Hao, Che Shun Hao and so on. Why did Pu 'er tea become tribute tea in Qing Dynasty? But after all, it is a "mystery of the source" and there is no need to delve into it.

After the demise of the Qing dynasty, these tea merchants have lost the cornerstone of their survival. With the collective bankruptcy, the fate of "many tea makers and gold diggers" who flocked to Chashan changed suddenly and became farmers who plowed for survival. Although the dream of making money has gone out, life goes on. Once descendants of tribute tea collectively became "mountain people", cultivated land and developed agriculture. During the Republic of China, the political situation was unstable and the people were poor. Although tea is also made, the price is the same as cabbage and radish. You can't make a lot of money at all. In the more than 50 years after 1949, life became more difficult. The descendants of tribute tea have completely forgotten the glory of their ancestors. At this time, the tea can only be exchanged for some rice, oil and salt, and poor people live in the world.
