Happy Shennong

Chapter 327
Linley lit a cigarette and asked with great interest, "Tell me, what did you find?"

"Cherry tree." Zhou Chong was in front of Linley, but he didn't dare to show off. He obediently pointed out the main point first, and then explained, "When I was looking for apple trees in an orchard yesterday, the boss said that their big tree Apple trees are not for sale, only saplings [-] to [-] centimeters high. However, he has a piece of cherries that he wants to sell. I went to see, and the cherries are really big, and the trunks are mine The fist is so thick."

"Cherry? Isn't it an imported fruit? They are also grown in China?"

"I don't know the details. The boss just said that his orchard is too big to manage, so he has to sell some of the fruit trees. But I feel that the boss is not telling the truth. If it's just because he is too busy, why don't he sell the apple trees? What? He only sells cherries, maybe because there is a problem with this tree. In addition, I don't know if Director Lin is interested in cherries, so I didn't dare to reply rashly, so I came back to ask for advice."

lei nodded.Immediately, he stuck the cigarette on the ashtray, opened the browser, and typed the word "cherry" in the search bar.As a result, I didn't know if I didn't look at it, but I was shocked when I saw it.

He was surprised to find that imported cherries are extremely expensive, and the general unit price is more than 80 yuan.In some places, the quality is estimated to be higher, and it costs nearly two hundred yuan a catty.In the words of the country, is such an expensive thing bought to extend life?

What is even more surprising is that quite a few people actually bought it!

Seeing this, Linley was a little moved.The price of cherries is much higher than that of high-end apples.For him, the higher the price, the higher the profit.

After pondering for a moment, he suddenly stood up: "Take me to see!"

Xiong Da walked in at the right time: "Brother Lei, are you going out?"

"Hmm." Linley nodded, "Your injury hasn't healed yet, right? You don't want to go, I will drive myself."

"My injury has healed, and even the scars are almost back to normal."

"Alright then, let's go!"

Linley didn't say any more, and rushed into the city with Xiong Da and Zhou.However, instead of going directly to the orchard that Zhou Chong mentioned, he first went to the headquarters of the Wanlong Group and found Zhong Ling.

Knowing that Zhong Ling is very busy, and Xiong Da and Zhou Chong are still waiting in the car, he didn't mean to be idle, and went directly to the topic: "Linger, I came here today to find out about the sales of cherries in your supermarket. how?"

"Cherry?" Zhong Ling thought for a while and said, "High-end imported fruit. Although it is expensive, it still keeps many people out of the door. The sales volume is definitely not as good as other ordinary fruits, not as good as cherries. .But...compared with other imported high-end fruits, the sales of cherries are quite satisfactory."

"I read on the Internet that there are prices ranging from [-] to [-]. Is it because of different varieties?"

"The difference in varieties is actually not that big, and the price is mainly determined by the freshness of the cherries. Imported fruits generally have to go through long-distance transportation and many times of transshipment before they can reach the supermarket and enter the sight of consumers. And in this process , no matter how well protected, cherries will not be very fresh. Compared with when they were just picked, the quality will decline, which will affect the taste. We have done a survey and found that many consumers complained that cherries The taste of the seeds is not as good as imagined, and some are not as good as domestic cherries."

Linley nodded thoughtfully: "What is the relationship between cherries and cherries? I checked the information before entering the city, but I didn't find out."

"Cherries and cherries are both Rosaceae deciduous shrub fruit trees. They are essentially the same. It is only because of differences in production areas, cultivation methods, nutrients and other factors that the fruits produced look different. Evolution from generation to generation If we go on, there will be obvious differences today. In fact, there are only two names of cherries and cherries in China. In English, their names are the same. Simply put, cherries are grown in foreign countries. Come out cherries!"

"Since the names of cherries and cherries are different in China, there must be a difference between the two, right?"

"The cherries are smaller in size, and their color ranges from pink to red. The cherries are larger and purple-black in color. They have higher sugar content than cherries, and the fruit is harder. Fresh and mature cherries eaten abroad, The taste is a little bit better than cherries. However, for the convenience of transportation, the imported ones are not very ripe, and the taste is not very good, and some are not as good as cherries."

Linley's eyes lit up: "If we grow cherries in China, the ones that are as fresh and ripe as cherries, wouldn't they be delicious?"

"Of course." Zhong Ling nodded and asked curiously, "Linley, do you want to grow cherries?"

"I originally wanted to grow apples and cultivate a new type of apple, but I couldn't buy suitable apple trees for a while. Yesterday Zhou Chong said that there was an orchard owner who was going to sell a batch of cherries. I was also in After hearing the news, I suddenly came up with this idea, so I came to you to find out about the market."

"That's right. As far as I know, there are also cherries grown in China, and saplings bought from abroad. However, due to differences in regions, climates, etc., the cultivation effect has not been very satisfactory. The cherries grown, Whether it is appearance, taste, or production, it is not as good as foreign origin. The quality of the fruit is not high, so naturally it cannot be sold at a good price. But... that is someone else. If you want to grow cherries, it is up to you Superb planting techniques shouldn’t be a problem. Maybe you can grow cherries of higher quality than foreign ones.”

Linley smiled and said, "How about... I'll try it first? If I succeed in planting, you have to sell it for me. Fresh cherries are delicious, stale ones are not good to eat, and they are not easy to sell. Put them away It's best in supermarkets."

"No problem." Zhong Ling said with a smile, "You don't need to ask my dad about this matter, I'm in charge!"

"Haha, then I wish us a happy cooperation!"

After Linley walked over to shake Zhong Ling's hand, he said goodbye and came to Zhong Wanlong's office again.

Some time ago, when I went to Longteng to thank Hong Ying, I gave Hong Ying a bottle of conditioning liquid and a bottle of pagoda lotion.Zhong Wanlong is also a benefactor, so naturally he cannot be treated differently.He gave Zhong Wanlong the same gift, and had a brief chat about cherries.

Like Zhong Ling, Zhong Wanlong strongly supported it.Not only in words, but also in action.

For Linley, it meant that before he planted cherries, he had already won the important sales channel of Bandung Supermarket. Without any worries, it was undoubtedly a good start.

After leaving the headquarters of the Bandung Group, he returned to his car and continued to drive for half an hour until he arrived at the orchard mentioned by Zhou Chong.

As soon as he heard that Linley was interested in cherries, the boss, who was about forty years old, quickly stopped what he was doing and invited them to the office.The tea is poured and the smoke is loose. It looks very enthusiastic, just like receiving distinguished guests.

From the behavior of the boss, Linley guessed that the cherries were not easy to sell.

As a businessman, Linley naturally knew that in this situation, the initiative was on his side, which was beneficial for bargaining.Therefore, he didn't show too much enthusiasm, and he didn't even intend to speak up.

The boss also lit a cigarette and took a puff, as if he couldn't wait any longer, and asked with a smile: "Boss Lin, are you going to buy the cherries in my orchard?"

"It's just that I have this idea, come here today to find out the specific situation, and then I can make a decision."

"Understanding, understanding, understanding is what you should. Boss Lin, if you are interested, may I take you to the orchard?"

"sure."

"plz follow me!"

The boss brought Lin Lei and the others to the orchard, and walked through a large area of ​​woodland before arriving at the cherries area.He boasted about his orchard as if there were no finer trees in the whole world than his orchard.

But in fact, large areas of cherries grow in general.Because it is planted in the open air, without the protection of a greenhouse, it is autumn again, and the leaves of the cherries have all fallen out, leaving them bare.The bark is cracked and some branches are withered.Occasionally there are one or two trees that died directly and can only be used as firewood.

The only advantage is that the fruit trees are really big.Most are as thick as a fist and more than two meters tall.The tallest ones should be more than three meters.

Although the growth of the fruit trees is not a problem for Linley, as long as the pond is watered, the fruit trees can quickly recover, but now is not the time to brag.He wandered around for a while, then stopped, shook his head and said, "Boss, don't read, I've already got the general situation. With all due respect, your artificially cultivated fruit trees don't grow as well as the wild ones in the mountains!"

"Uh...Boss Lin, I admit that compared with other fruit trees, Harmonious Cherry Trees are not growing well. But you don't know, these Cherry Trees are all imported Western treasures, delicate and delicate. It’s very good, and it can’t be compared with the original fruit trees in China. I’m not boasting, most people can’t even grow them alive, and I can grow them like this, which is already very good.”

"I know, boss, you have worked hard. But now is not the time to show meritorious service. What I have to consider is practical issues. These cherry trees are not growing well. If they are transplanted again, can they survive? Even if they survive, Can it bear fruit? If I am lucky and the fruit tree bears fruit, how much will it produce?"

The boss frowned, and then changed into a smiling face: "Boss Lin, you are too worried. After planting for many years, I have almost localized these western treasures. If you transplant them to your orchard, they will definitely be able to grow. As for the yield? , and definitely not low, the yield per mu is about [-] jin. The key point is that these fruit trees are already so big, if you buy them now, they will bloom and bear fruit in the first year, and you will see benefits tomorrow summer."

"Plant [-] cherries per mu, right? If the yield per mu is [-] catties, the average yield per tree is less than [-] catties, which is not high!"

"Different varieties have different yields. The yield of a single apple tree is more than 100 catties, but the price is far lower than that of cherries. Even for cherries, the yield of a single tree is only [-] to [-] catties."

Linley smiled ambiguously, and asked casually, "Boss, how are you going to sell it?"
