Ethiopia is mainly a wild coffee forest, want to chew coffee fruit or drink coffee, go into the forest to pick, so there was no coffee cultivation in ancient Ethiopia. Yemen had a large-scale coffee cultivation industry and coffee trade with Europe as early as the 15th and 16th centuries, and Ethiopia did not have a record of coffee trade until the 19th century. In 1838, Ethiopia exported the first ten tons of coffee beans to London, Marseilles and New York through the Red Sea port capital Massawa, known as "Haralmoka" because the Yemeni mocha came from the Ethiopian Harald long-bodied bean "Harrar Longberry" (basically, the flavor of Harald beans is very similar to that of Mocha). After the Yemeni mocha, Ethiopia has become a mecca for European coffee brokers panning for gold. The ancient city of Harald, located in the eastern highlands, close to the Red Sea and the Gulf of Aden, and rich in coffee, has naturally become an outpost for Europeans to know Ethiopian coffee. Rambo, the French god of poetry in the 19th century, abandoned literature to go into business and went to Harald to buy and sell coffee, adding a page of romance and sadness to the entanglement between literature and coffee.

Why the courageous Lambo abandoned his reputation in the literary world and ventured into Harald comprador coffee alone is still a mystery in the literary world. Rambo is regarded as the greatest poetry genius in France in the 19th century. He began to write poems at the age of 13 and published his work "drunken Boat" at the age of 17, which won the appreciation of the great French symbolist poet Verren at that time and invited him to his residence in Paris. Despite the success of his youth, Lambo was not sentimentally attached to the lights and booze of Paris. He closed his pen at the age of only 20 and decided to go into self-exile and wander around the world to look for opportunities to earn fruit. At the end of the 19th century, coffee consumption in Europe increased greatly, and Lambo was optimistic about the boundless "money scene" of coffee selling. instead, he pursued the plot of "Hell season" and went to a country where he "lost his climate" to exercise his physique. I hope that one day he will return home triumphantly with "steel ribs, copper skin, and sharp eyes." Traveling through Indonesia, Cyprus and Yemen, he settled in the ancient Ethiopian city of Harald, which is 1830 meters above sea level in 188, to handle the Harald coffee bean business for a French company stationed abroad, that is, today's coffee broker. Rambo was the first coffee purchasing expert in Europe who knew everything about the grade, bargaining and quality of coffee beans. He lived in Harald for eight years. The climate here is cool and more suitable for him than muggy Yemen. In addition to coffee, Lambo also engaged in arms, fur import and export business, and became an outstanding businessman, completely leaving literature behind. Since ancient times, many literati have been infatuated with coffee, but the only one who dared to go deep into the producing area to try their skills was Lambo.
