Later, as his friends liked to come to his breakfast shop for coffee, he began to slowly try to sell coffee.

Because some of us farm people are older generations who came back from Indonesia, Vietnam, they have this habit, they all like to drink coffee, at that time my parents also came into contact with these things in Vietnam, also learned, then came back (sold) breakfast and then added this coffee, at that time the older generation had this habit of drinking coffee, slowly we built this shop slowly.

The two pairs of coffee are now made from Yunnan high-quality coffee. For more than 30 years, although the two pairs of coffee have been improved many times on the original basis, they still adhere to many traditional processes and production methods, in order to maximize the retention of the original taste of coffee.

She opened a restaurant in 1985 with her skillful cooking skills. After combining Vietnamese dishes with local tastes, the restaurant became more and more popular with everyone.

I came back from 1978, with my mother and brothers and sisters. At that time, I was only 12 years old. When I returned home, I still went to school. When I was in junior high school, I came back to farm. Then I thought about it and got along with my current husband. I also had skills. I might as well open a restaurant. Then we went to open a restaurant.

[Commentary] Although Zhai Liguang, an overseas Chinese from Vietnam at Caifeng Farm, is still engaged in farm work, he has never forgotten the skill of making silverware he learned from his father.

I returned home with my parents in 1979 and settled here in Binchuan. This craft was brought back from Vietnam. I feel (interested in) this aspect.

I still need to process jewelry when I am busy farming.
