Fang Danmin 茶叶来自福建省武平县桃溪镇的家庭茶场,茶场的主人叫兰月廷(LanYueting),她是我老公的姐姐。茶叶是春天的绿茶,春天茶叶刚长芽就釆摘了。春天的 茶树虫子少,茶农很少用药,反之秋茶要打很多农药。因此春茶价格比秋茶贵6倍。 我今年2月8日到了姐姐家,买了5公斤绿茶,然后运回到另一个镇(我老公家),后来发现那里没有快递,2月11号就又托姐姐的孩子(邱富基,他在厦门工作 )把茶叶带到厦门。2月13号,我离开福建去了浙江,22日回到北京。2月25日,回到厦门的邱顺基把茶叶快递到北京
michael eddy Date: Tue, 5 Feb 2013 17:00:03 +0800 Hi Kate, I have someone to bring 5 kgs of green tea from Fujian to Beijing. She told me the price is 150 RMB per kg, so that is 600 RMB total. OK? I wonder how you would think about currency—600 RMB of coffee may be quite an extravagant amount. Perhaps a mixed bag of currencies is in order? East—> west direction: Maurice goes back to UK on the 11th of April; a Canadian to Winnipeg in March; will keep ears open for others, especially direct to US travelers. Date: Mon, 11 Mar 2013 19:17:44 +0800 Hi Kate, here are images of the tea farm (not sure if she has transport images). And one of the reception of the goods brought with Maurice. How much does that shipment represent the total trade value? The tea trader said "as much coffee as possible!" It's her family. I will ask her again to describe the process. Gotta run, more later! M Date: Mon, 25 Mar 2013 16:05:56 +0800 Hi Kate, handoff has finally taken place, but I don't think Maurice can take full shipment—so I will keep my eyes out for other traffickers. Hot chocolate went over very well! Tasty! M
kate rich Trader's role confined so far to the money transfer, tea courier requested payment for her family in feral trade coffee. 600 RMB equals give or take 63 GBP, breaks down to 1x olive oil, 1x hot chocolate & 1x cube-cola (delivered); with 1.75kg coffee still to move.
