He did not make Zhu Ni in the early days. In the late Ming and early Qing, our overseas trade was in Guangdong, like the Chaoshan area. A lot of giant businessmen, they drink Kung Fu tea. Then I was able to invite my ancestor Shang Hui Mengchen to Chaozhou, because they drank Kung Fu tea in Chaozhou and made them according to their requirements. Later, his Zhuni became his representative thing. In fact, he also made big pots, which was later extended to the habit of drinking tea throughout the UK, which was actually brought by early Guangdong merchants. The shadow of Hui Mengchen's classic pear-shaped pot can be seen on many silver tea sets of the British royal family.
