I've searched the internet over and over again for zhushuiqi, and found only
this quotation:

"The antique-looking "Gongfu"tea set includes "Four Treasures for
Tea-Making": one is a reddish-brown kettle, "yushuwei," with an oblate body
that holds only 200g of water; the second is "Shantou Wind Stove," which is
a small, exquisite and vented stove, used to boil water. Today, for
convenience, many people use the electric stove."

(from

I guess "Shantou Wind Stove" and "yushuwei" are the things I am looking
for.
