公元前59年《僮約》The Engagement of Servants (59 BC)

公元前59年，漢代王褒有《僮約》傳世，其中簽訂了奴仆的權利義務，對于仆人需要做的事務有如下約定：“膾魚炮鱉，烹茶盡具，牽犬販鵝，武陽買茶”。這是全世界最早的關于飲茶、買茶的記載，距今超過2000多年。

In the year 59 BC, Wang Bao of the Han Dynasty wrote The Engagement of Servants, in which he wrote the rights and obligations of servants. Servants shall do the following things: cook fish and turtles, make tea and prepare tea set, take care of dogs and buy geese, and buy tea in Wuyang. This is the earliest record of drinking tea and buying tea in the world, which is more than 2,000 years ago.

西晉張載《登成都樓詩》有“芳茶冠六清，溢味播九區(qū)”的詠茶名句，此為以茶入詩最早篇章之一。

In the West Jin Dynasty, Zhang Zai wrote the famous poem On Climbing the Chengdu Tower. It reads Aromatic tea tops six popular drinks, the overflowing aroma spreads to nine areas, which is one of the earliest poems that describe tea.
