Li Fangcheng and Huzi saw Liao Ling being amused, so they joined in the fun and got some food and went to feed it. Liao Ling was attracted by the food and no longer avoided it.
Fatty Luo picked up a small piece of rapeseed, stuffed it into his mouth, and swallowed it without chewing it twice.
"Sweet, crispy and tender, it's really a good thing. However, it's only here that I like to eat vegetables. The ones in the canteen and at home don't taste good at all. Just like this, my mother keeps complaining about the price of vegetables this year.
It has reached a record high again. Any leafy vegetable costs more than four or five yuan, and I can hardly afford it." Fatty Luo said with a sigh.
"Yes, you don't know how expensive firewood and rice are. My mother also yelled several times, saying that eating food is becoming expensive now." Gu Weiwei also confirmed this statement.
"Oh, I'm really not sure. I haven't been to the vegetable market for a long time. But now the price of oil, fertilizers, pesticides, and labor are all rising, and the cost for farmers to grow vegetables is also very high." Li Youran said, eating vegetables.
On the other hand, he is almost self-sufficient now, so he doesn't care about the market.
"Ahem, various experts in the newspaper said the same thing. By the way, Ranzi, are all these vegetables of yours produced at the vegetable base in Naishihe?" Fatty Luo asked.
"Yes, it is the base of Tonghezi Village. However, the planting area is not large. It is all dedicated to steamed bun shops and private restaurants."
"Hey, of course, don't you think about expanding production and selling the extra vegetables in the market? Based on the quality of this vegetable, I guess there are still people who want it even if it sells for ** yuan." Fatty Luo suggested.
suggestion.
Li Youran shook his head after hearing this.
"The base of Tonghezi Village grows special vegetables, which have very high requirements for seeds, water, and drip irrigation technology. Expanding the planting area is not an easy task. Besides, the vegetable market targets ordinary consumer groups.
, no matter how good the vegetables are, you can get them directly there. At most, they will be more expensive than ordinary products. Others may not believe you even if you say they are green and organic vegetables. The price in supermarkets can be higher, but it is not easy to open up channels, and the entrance fee is high.
It’s a small number, and there are also losses from transportation to the site, arrears in payment settlement, and a bunch of other things. Hey, I’m too lazy to worry about that.”
When Fatty Luo heard this, he thought it made sense, so he stopped trying to persuade him.
In fact, Li Youran had his true thoughts on this aspect. Ever since he got the jadeite Pixiu and started growing vegetables, he had never considered selling the vegetables outside.
There are many shortcomings in selling vegetables. First of all, these are only raw materials, and they are mainly targeted at housewives. The price is limited, and no matter how delicious it is, it cannot be five or ten times more expensive than ordinary vegetables, so few people can accept it.
Secondly, the quality and taste of vegetables are much better than other products, which will have a certain impact on the market and easily attract a lot of people's attention or investigation of your purchase channels. Then the vegetable base may be harassed every day and cause a lot of trouble. This
It was completely inconsistent with the carefree life he had always longed for.
But it is completely different to process vegetables and sell them in restaurants. As long as a dish has a unique flavor and is delicious, you can set a very high price, and no one will care about the cost of its raw materials.
The most important thing is that the taste of a dish is not only determined by the raw materials, but also by many factors such as side dishes, seasonings, and chef's skills. For example, in some famous restaurants, the main dishes are often labeled with secret sauces.
As for the secret recipe, I'm sorry, the recipe is a trade secret, so I can't comment.
In short, after the finished product is made, it is far from being as simple as the raw materials, and it is difficult for outsiders to check it out.
There is also space stream water, the quality of which is far superior to ordinary mineral water on the market. According to ordinary people's thinking, with such a never-ending stream, it is better to set up a bottling factory and sell the water directly on the market, which is convenient and trouble-free and makes money.
It’s fast. Like French Evian mineral water, it’s expensive and has a large consumer base.
But in fact, if you think about it carefully, you will know how difficult it is to operate. First of all, if you want to go on the market, you have to register a trademark, apply for a production license, and accept inspections from relevant departments. The first step is to investigate the water source of the place of origin. This level is
It is very difficult to handle, and there are other related business qualifications and other issues, which are quite a headache.
In view of this, all ideas of selling raw materials directly have been rejected by Li Youran. It is better to open a restaurant and develop it slowly, which feels more secure.
The terrace barbecue came to an end. While praising him, Fatty Luo added:
"This Malatang is really delicious, but it would be even better if we could get some mushroom skewers or something. Well, when the weather gets cooler, we can have hot pot and mutton-shabu-shabu."
Hearing his words, Li Youran suddenly felt a flash of light flashing across his mind, yes, mushrooms.
Plot No. 4, moldy vegetable leaves.
Microorganisms, fungi, rotten wood.
Could it be that this land is suitable for growing mushrooms?
Thinking about this, he suddenly became quite excited. Ever since the experiment of growing vegetables failed, he had almost forgotten about Plot No. 4 for a while.
Edible mushrooms are a good thing. Different from the fragrance of vegetables, they have a fresh and wild taste, which is known as one of the representatives of mountain delicacies.
When I was a child in Lijiagou, after it rained, I often took Fang Cheng to the mountains and forests to pick mushrooms, such as pine mushrooms and Zhen mushrooms. I could find a lot of them. I didn’t have money to buy meat at that time, so I simply put some garlic and chili.
Add salt to the mushrooms and cook them in a pot. The taste will be very delicious. The aroma can float from your home to the yard next to you.
Later, when I entered Tianhai City, I occasionally ate artificially cultivated mushrooms, but the taste was far different.
Many people are opposed to wild mushrooms and are worried about their safety. In fact, in the countryside, most people, from children to old men, know how to identify poisonous and non-toxic bacteria. At least in Lijiagou, I have never heard of anyone being poisoned after eating mushrooms.
.
"Fat man, this is a great idea. Let's get some mushrooms to try later." Li Youran patted the fat man on the shoulder encouragingly, making the guy a little confused.
After lunch was over, everyone started to clear away the dishes, tables, chairs, and grills. Li Youran said hello and said that he was tired and was going to take a nap. Others should rest early after finishing their work.
So, he ran away in the eyes of everyone's contempt.
Back in the bedroom, he found his tablet computer, lay on the bed, connected it to the wireless router, and looked up information about edible fungi online.
Edible fungi is a large category, with hundreds of species recorded. Common artificially grown edible fungi in my country include shiitake mushrooms, fungus, golden fungus, white fungus, straw mushroom, golden needle mushroom, Hericium erinaceus, bamboo fungus, tea tree mushroom, etc. , and wild edible fungi such as porcini, morels, red rivet mushrooms, sticky cap mushrooms, red mushrooms, etc. can also be collected in large quantities and sold in domestic and foreign markets.
There are also rare strains such as matsutake and ganoderma.
Let's try some common varieties first. After all, this is just a guess at the moment. Li Youran thought.
