The Lahu people reclaimed ancient tea gardens, and villages and tea gardens coexisted. During the Guangxu period, the Han people moved to Baotang, Nanben and other places to engage in tea trade. In 1931, the Yiwu Chen brothers founded a tea shop in Manmai to make compressed tea. In 1941, the Fohai Tea Factory established a primary processing plant, and Fan Hejun purchased Chen Xi's compressed tea. In the 1940s, the ancient tea garden area exceeded 5,000 mu
