Shopping in Hong Kong

Talking about the history of the Big Circle. I have to say that Ye Jihuan back then, several gold shops in Causeway Bay were swept away by this Ye Jihuan and his people in half an hour, and then used AK47 to open the way and walked without a trace under the sea and air outflanking of the "Royal Police" Flying Tigers at that time; For a time, the Hong Kong market was in tears, and everyone in the gold shop industry was in danger. A Hong Kong TV station happened to film the process of Ye Jihuan's robbery, and saw several masked people with tall heads, skillful with guns, and clean and neat movements, which looked like the actions of local gangsters. Ye Jihuan set a precedent in Hong Kong's history for robbery with automatic weapons, and at that time, the gangsters in Hong Kong had at most touched a few points and the mainland's Black Star pistol (54-style), and they had never seen such a battle! A reporter with a good thing went to the mainland with a video tape to find a group of armed policemen, first played the video, and then asked them for their opinions. The armed police talked about a few points, the main ones being: first, this group of people was born in the army and was well-trained; second, they should have fought in war.

At this time, the "Big Circle Gang" began to surface. It began to be known to the people of Hong Kong. In fact, the "big circle" has long been famous in the underworld in Hong Kong and Macao. In fact, the earliest "big circles" were the Red Guards and educated youths during the Cultural Revolution, and also included some veterans, mainly from Guangdong, Hunan, Shanghai, and some other provinces. In the later stages of the Cultural Revolution, these people smuggled people into Hong Kong in a big way, trying to find a world of their own in Hong Kong with the courage they had cultivated in the mainland. However, due to differences in language and cultural concepts, as well as discrimination from Hong Kong citizens, it is difficult for these "big circles" to gain a foothold, and many people have started their careers in the underworld. When they first debuted, most of them were homeless and had no worries, so they were ruthless and very good at using their brains when they got into trouble with local gangs such as the 14K and Shuifang, and even if they were arrested, they generally did not turn against the water, and boasted that they "grew up under the red flag and had red roots." If they could no longer hide in the local area, they would go to the mainland and leave the police. It can be said that Ye Jihuan is a representative figure. Because there are too many cases to do. Unable to stay in Hong Kong and Macao, some people "ran away" to North America in the mid-to-late 80s, mainly on the west coast of Canada, and since then the ecological balance of the Canadian underworld has been broken.

Looking back at the history of the development of Hong Kong's triad society, it is not difficult to see that the rise of the triad in Hong Kong stems from the general idea of "making it convenient for oneself to get rich," and then it is thought that "when others infringe on one's own interests, one can deal with it with the group, and there is no fear." If it continues to develop, when one and the group infringe on a certain person, the other party will be invincible and profitable, and it will develop from seeking protection for oneself to committing evil and being unscrupulous.

The underworld restricts the behavior of its members with strict rules and disciplines, and integrates the beliefs of its members with the ideology of "sharing blessings and difficulties". As an organization, especially based on "profit" and profit-seeking, those who do not want to support themselves are keen to obtain their own interests by illegal means such as smashing, looting, and killing, and the convenience of being able to obtain it without effort has made people's selfishness infinitely inflated, and in addition, the citizens do not dare to resist, and the government is not effective in suppressing it, so not only has the triad organization not died out. On the contrary, it has flourished, and the number of people has increased over the past few decades, and the methods of committing crimes have become more and more innovative, and the "level" has also been raised more and more.

According to Chen Feng's memories of his previous life, there was a shadow of Hong Kong gang infiltration in Xiuzhou, uniting local idle people, opening up joints everywhere, and secretly setting up casinos, gambling, Mark Six lottery, usury and other activities.

As early as the early 1980s, it was discovered that members of the gangs 14K, Shuifang, Heshenghe, and Xin Yi'an had entered Guangdong and committed crimes in Guangzhou, Huizhou, Dongguan, Jiangmen, Zhongshan, and Foshan in the Pearl River Delta, as well as in Shantou, Shanwei, and Zhanjiang along the coast. In the early 90s, the nature of Hong Kong gangs infiltrating the mainland changed, from individual behavior to organizational behavior, and Shenzhen already had 29 overseas gangs in the 90s. These gangsters have completely brought in the gangster model in Hong Kong, exaggerated the righteousness of the rivers and lakes, and acted in secret words with initiation ceremonies and gestures, which are in essence criminal activities, manipulating entertainment venues, recruiting troops to carry out illegal activities such as pornography, gambling, and drugs, and even killing each other in competition for interests.

Gangsters have direct investment or equity participation in the operation of entertainment venues, forcibly collect protection fees in entertainment venues, manipulate ** women and sell drugs. Open an underground bank, illegally operate a ** business, illegally open an underground gambling stall, operate Mark Six and peripheral horses. Hong Kong's 14K "white paper fan" (master) Chen Jinhua. He has opened gambling stalls in Shenzhen and Huizhou, including betting on peripheral horses and peripheral waves. For example, Wang Xiaobo, a member of Hong Kong's "Water House", organized 23 women to go to Hong Kong and Macao** in Shantou, and these women had to receive 60 to 80 prostitutes during their stay in Hong Kong for about 10 days.

In 2000, the mainland police in Shenzhen had held a tie-up (Cantonese "promotion") meeting to wipe out the new Ngee An, but the new Ngee An did not disappear, this year the Shanwei mainland police detected the development of new Ngee An members in Lufeng Daan Town, the main members include Xiang Zhiqiang and 10 mainland members. Since 1994, with the consent of the senior management of Hong Kong's new Ngee An, as a high-level member with another fellow villager Huang Xing (who has died of illness), he has repeatedly entered Daan Town, Lufeng City and other places to develop members, and set up an altar to hold a general assembly ceremony, the ceremony is mostly presided over by Huang Xing, because he belongs to the old uncle's generation, and he knows the gangster job and the initiation ceremony very well, in fact. He was only an old man in Hong Kong during his lifetime, but he was respected and valued in the gang.

After the development of the local triad, he used the organization to control the illegal Mark Six lottery activities in the local area, receiving bets of more than 10 million yuan per period, and at the same time involved in the manufacture of methamphetamine and trafficking for export, the manufacture and sale of counterfeit yuan, and also used various channels to win over and bribe local leaders to maintain their black interests, claiming to be black and white, undermining local public order, and even attempting to replace the local government organization and operation. Thankfully, these scum are the same. In July last year, the mainland police in Shanwei City spared no effort to crack down on the crackdown.

If possible, Chen Feng really wants to clean up the "monkey" in Xinyi'an before, this guy was too hateful before. Of course, Chen Feng believes that the leopard should not let go of this "monkey" so easily, if he really has a background, then this monkey will naturally have to suffer a lot.

The car went all the way back to the home in Deep Water Bay, and when I entered the room, I found that Karina hadn't slept yet, and was lying on the bed with her laptop open.

"Why haven't you slept yet?"

"You're back?"

The two of them asked almost at the same time, and Karina was the first to answer: "I can't sleep tonight, so I just won't sleep?"

Of course, Chen Feng knew that she was waiting for her to come back, and said a little apologetically: "I'm sorry, I came back late." ”

Karina smiled, "It's not too late, I thought you weren't coming back." ”

Chen Feng's face was slightly red, it was almost two o'clock in the morning, not too late?

Chen Feng simply said generously: "Okay, wife, it's me who is wrong, I really planned to return before twelve o'clock, who knew that the food stalls there were delicious, plus the more I chatted with my eldest brother, the more speculative I became, the more I drank, the more I forgot the time, and I didn't come back until now." ”

"Okay, I don't mean to complain about you, come and sleep. Karina turned off the computer, closed the lid of the laptop, put it on the bedside, sighed, stretched, and lay down.

Seeing this, of course Chen Feng didn't say anything, and immediately took off his clothes and pants, and climbed into bed wearing only a pair of underwear.

Because Karina is still on her period, and it's not too early now, Chen Feng certainly didn't ask for anything with her. just hugged her quietly, no one spoke, and soon the two fell asleep.

A few hours later, under the influence of Chen Feng's untouchable biological clock, Chen Feng still woke up, and he didn't feel like lying in bed or sleepy, so he got up very usually, then washed his face and brushed his teeth, and then went downstairs to do Arhat exercises, and he had already done morning exercises.

On the contrary, Karina slept soundly at this time, needless to say, she probably didn't have to go to work this morning.

At about half past eight, Wang Meixue, who had completed the record recording work, got up like a few days ago, and when she was still at the staircase, she said to Chen Feng, who was having breakfast in the living room, with an angry face: "Xiao Feng, such a big thing has happened in the past two days, why didn't you sue me? Do you still have my sister in your eyes?"

Chen Feng was stunned when he heard this, but of course he understood the meaning of her words, so he said indifferently: "Sister, you think too much." It's not a big deal, and I'm not worried about affecting your mood for recording records, so I didn't tell you. ”

"Isn't it okay that something like this happened? Japan almost broke out in a nationwide riot because of this incident. Really, this incident was last night, when I called Meilin, she sued me. Wang Meixue said with a displeased face.

Chen Feng said very calmly: "Okay, come over and eat." It's really not a big deal for me, and now that you know it, it's nothing. As for being angry?"

"I think you haven't been sincere to me all along, and you haven't treated me as a sister. Wang Meixue said a little angrily, "Otherwise, if something like this happens, you will definitely sue me, in your heart, I must not be as important as Karina, right?"

Chen Feng smiled bitterly when he heard this, thinking that you are really self-aware. Although he has known Wang Meixue for many years, and it can even be said that he has known each other since he was a child, to be honest, there really isn't much emotional component in it. And although Karina has known her much shorter time than her, after all, the two have been skin-to-skin now, and they have each other's baby, who is their little wife, so emotionally, he is naturally much closer to Karina, and the weight in his heart is naturally much heavier.

"Sister, what are you talking about early in the morning, come over and eat. Chen Feng also pretended to be silent and said with a sinking face.

Wang Meixue is not a stupid woman, she knows that what she just said is a bit excessive, but she really cares that Karina occupies a more important position in Chen Feng's heart, or that she is jealous and very jealous of Karina.

She pouted, sat down a little reluctantly, and had breakfast with Chen Feng.

Both of them were silent for a while before Chen Feng spoke: "After breakfast, you can clean up and fly back to the mainland with me, and I will send you to Beijing first, and then back to Xiuzhou." ”

Wang Meixue was slightly stunned, and then hurriedly said: "I haven't done a good shopping trip to Hong Kong this time, after breakfast, you accompany me to the mall to buy some things, and then we will go back to the mainland." ”

When Chen Feng heard that she wanted to accompany him to go shopping, of course he was a little reluctant in his heart, and frowned: "Isn't there something in Hong Kong, but also in Beijing? Don't waste time, if you want to buy something, you can buy it in a shopping mall in Beijing." ”

"What do you know? The quality of the things here in Hong Kong is better than that in Beijing, and the prices of some famous brands are cheaper than those in Beijing, and the styles are also more novel. If you don't want to, forget it, I don't want you to wait for me to go with you, you go back first, and then I will take the plane by myself. ”

Seeing that his cheap old lady had a frosty face and a full stomach full of grievances, Chen Feng knew that he was really angry. I had to say helplessly: "Okay, since you have to go with me, then I'll go with you." ”

"Hmph, seeing that you look so reluctant, you still don't want to go with me, I won't be strong, and please don't move you, a big star. Wang Meixue said and turned her head away with a look of residual anger.

Chen Feng had no choice but to make a bitter face and said with a smile: "Okay, old lady, you won't be so careful, it's a big deal that I will pay for all the expenses you shop today, this will always work." ”

Wang Meixue's face was relaxed when she heard that Chen Feng took the initiative to pay, and a smug smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

"You said it yourself, I didn't force you. Wang Meixue said seriously.

Chen Feng smiled bitterly and nodded: "Of course." ”

Wang Meixue smiled with satisfaction at this time, and quickly finished her own portion, then clapped her hands, stood up and said, "Okay, let's go now, finish buying things early, and go back early." ”

"Oh, wait a minute. I'll go upstairs and leave a note for Karina. After Chen Feng finished speaking, he hurriedly went upstairs and went back to the room, Karina was really sleeping soundly at this time, of course Chen Feng didn't wake her up, took a note and wrote that he and Wang Meixue went shopping, and then put the note on the bedside table.

Only then did I go downstairs and follow Wang Meixue out shopping.

Hong Kong has always been known as a "shopping paradise" by Chinese and foreign tourists, and shopping in Hong Kong is world-renowned in terms of product variety, price and service.

The Hong Kong store pù sells a wide range of products from around the world, from top international brands to local specialty items. As the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government adopts a low tax policy, most of the goods sold in Hong Kong are not taxed, so the prices of goods purchased in Hong Kong are correspondingly lower, generally lower than those of other countries and regions, so it attracts Chinese and foreign tourists to shop and travel to Hong Kong. In addition, retail outlets in Hong Kong have several seasonal sales promotions every year to provide customers with additional discounts. Most of our waiters in Hong Kong are professionally trained in quality customer service, with a courteous and friendly attitude and a customer-oriented approach. Therefore, when you travel to Hong Kong, you will definitely enjoy a satisfying shopping experience.

Shopping in Hong Kong is very convenient because there are large shopping malls in various parts of Hong Kong. For example, Landmark and IFC malls in Central, Pacific Place in Admiralty, Times Square and Sogo Department Store in Causeway Bay, The Peninsula Hotel Mall, Harbour City and New World Centre in Tsim Sha Tsui, and New Town Plaza in Sha Tin. Generally speaking, most of the shopping malls in the Central area are relatively high-end, with high-end goods and high prices, while places such as Causeway Bay and Tsim Sha Tsui are good places for the general public to shop, while in the areas of Yau Ma Tei and Mong Kok, the goods are not of high grade and the prices of goods are relatively low.

Therefore, Wang Meixue's preferred location is, of course, the shopping malls in the Central area.

Central is the heart of Hong Kong, the earliest area to be developed on Hong Kong Island, and the commercial center of Hong Kong. As early as 1841, when the British occupied Hong Kong, the British were the first to establish their military base in Central, and quickly built a number of major roads. On the hillside of present-day Lower Albert Road, it was designated as a government site when the port was opened in 1841, and the Governor's House, the symbol of the British government of Hong Kong, was located in the middle of the government hill. Historically, therefore, Central was part of the city of Victoria.

Long before the Second World War and in the early post-war years, Central, on the north shore of Hong Kong Island, was already a major commercial centre in Hong Kong at that time. Due to the lack of land, during Des Voeux (1887-1891), many reclamation works were carried out in Central, and today's Hong Kong Clubhouse, Statue Square, Legislative Council Building, etc., were also built on the basis of reclamation works.

The 1970s and 1980s were the heyday of Central, when the construction of multi-storey skyscrapers in Central, including the headquarters of banks, and the boom in the financial markets, led to the development of many of Hong Kong's major business activities in Central, and many Hong Kong people were proud to work in Central. However, due to the fact that the land in Central has not been able to meet the needs even after repeated reclamations, and the rent of the office in Central has remained high, the main business district of Hong Kong Island has gradually expanded to the north shore of Sheung Wan, Admiralty and Wan Chai, and the flow of people has gradually become less than before. However, as the heart of Hong Kong and the centre of the financial market, business activities in Central are still quite frequent.

Central is the political and economic center and high-end shopping district of Hong Kong, with countless financial centers, a variety of food and beverage outlets and branded fashion stores, and is a favorite place for tourists and Hong Kong locals to go shopping. In addition, there are many old and new buildings in Central, which have become iconic buildings, such as the Bank of Shanghai Building. Jardine Hou, once the tallest building in Asia, is also located in Central, and these buildings form the beautiful and spectacular cityscape of Hong Kong Island.

The first stop Wong and Chen Feng went to was the Landmark Plaza, one of Central's landmarks.

The Landmark is a well-known shopping mall in the heart of Hong Kong Island, and is a major shopping mall for local office workers and pink-collar workers. The Landmark shopping mall has four floors, including the first basement floor and three floors above ground, and the fourth floor and above are office buildings. In addition to the brand-name clothing accessories made by internationally renowned manufacturers, there are also men's counters, such as Kent&Curwen, S.T.Dupont, etc., which are popular with British royalty and aristocrats (please refer to the appendix for the location of the counters), Burberry and DiorHomme's men's exclusive clothing.

The central lobby of the Landmark is overhung by a prismatic ceiling made of glass curtains, which has good light transmission, allowing you to enjoy the sunshine while shopping, and eliminate the sense of restraint in the confined space of ordinary department stores. Thoughtfully designed by American artist James Carpenter, the central daylight café with streamlined box seating not only provides a place to relax, but also adds a modern touch to the space. In the center of its expansive courtyard is a fountain that can be illuminated. The Meidian Street building has a total of 4 floors and is surrounded by a fountain. The interior of the plaza is very spacious, and the floors are beautifully decorated. When you choose to shop here, you can browse a wide range of world fashion products and enjoy an elegant shopping environment.

In the past, although Wang Meixue had already shopped here, she still wanted to visit today, and the first store she first chose was of course a Louis Vuitton store. Wang Meixue really had the purpose of making Chen Feng bleed profusely this time, and picked out three bags, two pairs of high heels, and two bottles of perfume in one go. But fortunately, he now has a net worth of hundreds of billions of dollars, so he can naturally afford to spend this money, plus Wang Meixue is half of his relatives no matter how he says, spending money on his relatives, Chen Feng has no intention of worrying.

Wang Meixue, who took the invoice, probably didn't expect that she had spent so much money on these things, and she was secretly a little smacked and embarrassed, because she hadn't looked at the price before.

When Chen Feng walked out of the store with her with the shopping bag, Wang Meixue was very embarrassed and whispered to Chen Feng: "Xiaofeng, I'm sorry, I didn't expect these things to be so expensive, I thought that at most five or six hundred thousand yuan would be enough." ”

"Okay, anyway, I'm ready to be slaughtered by you this time. Chen Feng said with a slight smile, "Besides, such a little money is really nothing to me now, you know, I am worth hundreds of millions of dollars now, don't save me money." Of course, if you really don't want to go, don't spend money indiscriminately. ”

Chen Feng finished speaking. Like the cost just now, Chen Feng really felt that she was a little wasteful, for example, Louis Vuitton, which is LV's bag, she already had several, and now she buys three, and she also had a few pairs of LV high heels before, and now she buys it again, which is too extravagant. Of course, he wouldn't say these words.

Chen Feng's words made Wang Meixue very satisfied, and nodded with a smile: "I know that you have money, then I won't save money for you in the future, but don't worry, since I spent so much money on you at once, of course I don't want to go, and I won't spend money indiscriminately in the future." ”

Of course, Chen Feng won't say anything more to her, but then, Wang Meixue really didn't spend money indiscriminately, and probably felt a little uncomfortable, and specially selected a set of Kent&Curwen (three lions) athleisure clothes for Chen Feng, founded in 1882 A.D. Kent & Curwen, the three lions in the brand logo are the coat of arms of the British Richard I, symbolizing the chivalry of eminence, dignity and glory. After a hundred years of trials, Kent&Curwen's meticulous dedication to quality has earned it the title of a number of British gentleman's sportswear. The Kent*Curwen used by the royal family is always full of luxury, with a comfortable and soft beige color scheme full of summer leisure, and the signature royal emblem and striped trim on the collar and cuffs are meticulous details. Of course, the price is not low, a set is equivalent to more than 120,000 Hong Kong dollars, but in the end, it is naturally Chen Feng himself who pays for the card. Wang Meixue wanted to pay the bill, but Chen Feng's sentence 'Your money is not my money' suddenly made Wang Meixue a little angry and dispelled the idea of paying the bill for Chen Feng. After Chen Feng said this, he regretted it a little, but he was not wrong, Wang Meixue's current "pocket money" was provided by Chen Feng, and the 3,000 yuan per month rationed to her by her family was really not enough for her to spend.

However, as a result, Wang Meixue felt that her kindness was treated as a donkey's liver and lungs, and she began to sweep frantically again, and bought five or six sets of clothes with an average price of more than 150,000 yuan in one go, each with a price of more than 600,000 yuan of high-end skin care sets, one of which was bought for her old **, Chen Feng thought about it and immediately came to two more sets, and naturally planned to buy it back for Hongye and her mother, but then when she thought of Karina, she immediately had to add another set. In this way, Chen Feng bought a total of five sets of this skin care set, and after swiping the card to pay the bill, he immediately got the platinum membership card of this famous makeup store, and if he came to patronize it in the future, he would directly get a nine-percent discount. Think about it, it is also a one-time purchase of five sets of such top makeup and skin care sets, and it is rare for high rollers with a total value of more than three million, with the foreshadowing of spending money before, Chen Feng spent money this time and didn't care a little, after all, he has money now, so he can't keep it all the time. Not to mention that there aren't many opportunities to spend money like today.

However, Wang Meixue was shocked by Chen Feng's spending such a penance, and after such a short period of effort, she spent seven or eight million, and she couldn't help but feel distressed for Chen Feng. This feeling is very strange, and even she herself is a little inexplicable. However, next, she really didn't plan to let Chen Feng spend money anymore.

Of course, if you don't spend money, you don't spend money, and you still have to go shopping. Then Wang Meixue took Chen Feng to Prince Building, which is also one of the properties developed by Hongkong Land, among which most of the boutique products with cabinets are international brands with a long history, such as Bally, Montblanc, Boss, etc., and the stable and trend-setting brands will make the most distinctive market segmentation of Prince Building's business policy.

There are also haute couture shops such as ItalianTailor and Ascot Chang that can be tailored for men.

The building is 27 storeys high, of which the 5th floor is a shopping mall, mainly selling designer goods, including Chanel stores, and the remaining floors are offices. The mall also has a footbridge connecting the Landmark Plaza, Mandarin Oriental, HSBC Hong Kong and Standard Chartered Bank.

When the two went to the Chanel store, although Wang Meixue planned to save money for Chen Feng, she was still moved when she watched the shopping guide introduce Chanel perfumes, although she had already bought a lot of Louis Vuitton perfume before. Chen Feng saw her thoughts, and said with a smile: "You can buy it if you want, you don't have to save money for me." ”

As soon as Chen Feng said this, Wang Meixue naturally wouldn't be polite anymore, even if she picked two large bottles of Chanel No. 5, one of them was going to be given to her old **. For this famous perfume, Chen Feng certainly knows. Chanel's No. 5 perfume makes 5 a magic number in the perfume world, representing a beautiful legend. "5" is the lucky number of Mademoiselle Chanel, when the famous nose of the Parisian perfume world, Ernest Beaux developed several perfume samples, Mademoiselle Chanel chose the fifth perfume among the many perfume samples, and the launch day of Chanel's No.5 fragrance happened to be held on May 25, coinciding with Chanel's fifth fashion presentation. In 1953, Chanel No.5 became the first fragrance to be commercialized on television.

No.5 was Chanel's first perfume, and CHANEL's Noo.5, launched in 1921, was the first synthetic floral perfume, inspired by bouquets, blending luxury and elegance, and expressing feminine bravery and boldness, completely breaking the traditional spirit of perfume at that time. Mademoiselle Chanel admired the beauty of simplicity, and she wanted to wrap the original fragrance with a simple and unfurnished design – a perfume bottle with clean lines in a rectangular body, and Chanel No.5 in black on a white background. Since the birth of Marilyn Monroe's famous pajamas, Chanel No.5, Chanel's fragrances have always been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people with noble and elegant images. In 1956, it also became part of the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York. To this day, Chanel No.5 still holds the position of world sales champion. Grasse's jasmine and rose, through the rich variation of acetaldehyde, become the embodiment of the most feminine power, delicately interpreting the classic and timeless femininity, showing a unique feminine flavor. In May 1921, when perfumer Ernest Beaux presented Madame Chanel with a wide selection of fragrances, Mademoiselle Chanel almost without hesitation chose the fifth, the most famous fragrance in the world.

Chen Feng took this perfume and smelled it, and it felt really good, so Chen Feng also bought three bottles. Fortunately, the price of this perfume is not particularly expensive, and the large one is only more than 2,000 Hong Kong dollars.

After buying Chanel No. 5 perfume, it was almost twelve o'clock at noon, and Chen Feng went to eat. Wang Meixue was also a little tired from shopping, so she naturally agreed with Chen Fengjian.

Chen Feng searched in the library of his mind, and collected miscellaneous information about various aspects of Hong Kong when he was bored, including food and drink in the Central area, and finally locked down a tea restaurant called "Lan Fong Yuen", which is not far from the intersection of Jiezhi Street.

Chen Feng followed the map in his mind, and soon took Wang Meixue to the ground, only to see a small iron stall at the entrance of Jiezhi Street, with "exquisite snacks" and "hot and cold drinks" written on it, and newspaper clippings were pasted on both sides, and a small window needed to be probed to see the guys inside. This small tin stall has not changed since it stood at the corner of the street in 1952. It is the originator of Hong Kong tea restaurant, and the well-known "silk stocking milk tea" at home and abroad is the first here.

It is said that the owner of Lan Fangyuan started with stockings milk tea, which was a mobile stall at first, and now it has entered the interior, but there is still a stall in front of the door. Many old customers think that it is better to sit on the bench in front of the stall and drink stockings milk tea. Stockings milk tea is 12 Hong Kong dollars a cup, and some people even say: "If you haven't eaten Lan Fang Yuan, you can't count as having eaten a tea restaurant in Hong Kong", which shows Lan Fang Yuan's status in Hong Kong tea restaurants.

Stockings milk tea, pork chop buns and Lao Ding are the "three treasures of the town store" of Lan Fang Yuan. Let's talk about "stockings milk tea" first. The founder of Lan Fang Yuan is surnamed Lin, and at the beginning of the store, he used a large kettle to make tea, and the tea in a large kettle was consumed slowly, and the longer it was cooked, the more bitter and astringent the tea came out.

At that time, his wife thought of sewing a bag with woolen cloth made of cotton jackets to separate the tea residue, and Boss Lin found someone to make a smaller copper kettle to make tea, so that it would not take too long. Because the woolen cloth bag is long and brown with tea stains, customers feel as if it is a pair of stockings, but it is not, but the name of the image of "stockings milk tea" has been passed down to this day, and it is also imitated by other tea restaurants.

"Lan Fang Yuan's" "Stockings Milk Tea" can be said to be well-known in the streets, the milk tea has a strong fragrance, the tea taste is different, it turns out that this milk tea is made with 4 different kinds of tea.

"Lan Fang Yuan" used to be just a small stall selling coffee and milk tea, but now, it has two shops, one new and one old.

A cup of delicious milk tea is definitely not as simple as tea and milk, the selection of ingredients is quite critical, and Sri Lankan tea and Malaysian non-dairy milk are used here. The ice cubes added are not ordinary ice cubes, but frozen milk tea grains, so that even if the ice cubes melt, the taste of milk tea will not be reduced.

Speaking of the "second treasure" - pork chop buns, there are also decades of history, because the pork chops have been specially marinated, with secret spices, so it is very flavorful and fluffy, and the pork chops are also covered with a thin layer of tomato and butter, and the slight sourness brings out the aroma of the gravy. The bread used in the pork chop bun is sprinkled with sesame seeds, and the crust of the bread is slightly toasted and fragrant.

The recipe is similar to that of Lao Din, but this instant noodle is quite refreshing when cooked, and slightly softer than the ordinary water surface. Due to the different side dishes, a variety of flavors have been developed, among which the recommended is "scallion oil chicken chop lo ding", the chicken chop is crispy and smooth, with ginger paste hanging flavor, 32 yuan a plate, eat a fresh.

The difference between the old and new shops is that the food in the old shop is relatively simple and lightweight, focusing on the flavor and feel of the old-style tea restaurant, the most famous of which are "Silk Stockings Milk Tea", "Gold Medal Pork Chop Bun" and "Chicken Chop with Scallion Oil", all three of which can be regarded as the first of "Lan Fong Yuen", so they are very popular and have become the signature dishes of the tea restaurant, attracting many media reports and celebrities.

The decoration of the old store is simple, with round wooden chairs and tables, and the walls are covered with newspapers covering the store, and there are words inscribed with a brush, plus a simple painting, which shows the 50-year history of "Lan Fang Yuan". As for the new restaurant, which opened two years ago, it is larger and brighter, and the food is not only the traditional signature milk tea, but also some simple noodles and rice. These foods are a re-expression of classic recipes accumulated over 51 years, and of course they are subject to regular changes.

After eating and drinking, Wang Meixue is also full of praise for the stockings milk tea here.

"Okay, brother, you know all about this kind of place, and it's almost Hong Kong. After walking out of this Lanfang Garden, Wang Meixue still said with some unfinished words.

Chen Feng didn't agree with her words, but diverted the topic and said: "Sister, it's not too early, let's go back early and prepare, let's go back to the mainland as soon as possible." ”

Wang Meixue was immediately unhappy when she heard this: "It's rare for me to come to Hong Kong once, and I just got some interest, why did I leave so early?"

Seeing that Chen Feng's face was a little uncertain, Wang Meixue lowered her posture again, and begged softly: "My good brother, it is rare for my sister to come out once a year, especially when she is rarely with you, can you bear to send your sister away so early? Good brother, my sister is really reluctant to part with you so soon, let's go shopping again, okay?"

Wang Meixue said angrily, while coquettishly reaching out to pull Chen Feng's arm, and deliberately rubbing the full ** on Chen Feng's arm, Chen Feng immediately got goosebumps, widened the distance from her, raised his hand and surrendered: "Okay, old lady, I'm afraid of you." If you like it, go shopping. ”
