Introduction to Wang Laoji?

Wang Lao Ji's herbal tea was founded in the light years of Qing dynasty, with a history of more than 17 years, and has the reputation of "the ancestor of herbal tea".

Tracing back to the source, there is an interesting allusion to the origin of Wang Laoji herbal tea. During the light years of the Qing dynasty, furuncle broke out in Guangzhou and the epidemic spread. In order to save patients, Wang Ji, the founder of Wang Laoji Herbal Tea, tried his best to develop a herbal tea formula, which not only relieved the villagers' pain, but also helped them avoid disasters such as smallpox and epidemic diseases. From then on, Wang Ji became famous, and was called into the palace by Emperor Wenzong, who made him an order of Imperial Hospital. In the third year of Xianfeng, Wang Ji opened a herbal tea shop in Guangzhou and named it "Wang Lao Ji".

When Lin Zexu, an imperial envoy, went to Guangdong to check cigarettes incognito, he personally experienced the wonders of Aji herbal tea, and sent someone to give him a big copper pot engraved with the words "Wang Lao Ji" as a gift to Wang Zebang. From then on, Wang Zebang took Wang Laoji as the name, initiated the herbal tea shop, and sold Wang Laoji's herbal tea bags (see "Guangzhou Xiguan Old Son"), which spread overseas.

Liang Qichao, a famous scholar in Qing Dynasty, said: In the United States, a dose of Wang Laoji can be sold for five to ten dollars; Yuan Xiaoxian, a modern newspaper reporter, and Mr. and Mrs. Li Chunxiao traveled in the United States. In many hotels in the United States, at the end of high-class banquets, the waiter will offer a cup of China herbal tea, Wang Laoji.

In the long history of more than 17 years, Empress Dowager Cixi used Wang Laoji's wisdom to clear her mind and control the state affairs. Hong Xiuquan went to Guangzhou to test Wang Laoji for help; Taiping Army Tianjing defends Wang Laoji's army; After Lin Zexu, Destruction of Opium at Humen Wang Laoji and other earth-shattering events, nowadays, drinking Wang Laoji has become a new consumption trend.
