Tea has been grown in Anxi County by monks since the 7th century, but the exact date of its appearance is still unknown. It is only known that by the 18th century, the trade in Anxi tea reached its highest level, and the most famous of the local teas was Tie Guan Yin.
In the coastal province of Fujian, there is a small provincial Chinese city with a population of more than a million people. In economic theory, there is a concept of perfect competition - this is a market condition when many manufacturers sell the same product to buyers, and this product is not such a problem for anyone who wants to produce it.
