Chapter 495: Expensive also rushed to buy

Even the two kinds of green vegetables sent for inspection are worse than the similar vegetables grown on Nanshan Island. However, the taste of the first batch of vegetables harvested by the chef still satisfied the diners.

Chen Xingwang, who also tasted this batch of green vegetables, also confidently told Zhuang Haiyang that the quality of this batch of green vegetables was very high. Unless you are a particularly picky and powerful eater, you will not be able to eat the difference between the vegetables grown in the two places.

When Zhuang Haiyang accompanied his brother-in-law back to the farm, he looked at the two vegetable fields that were the first to go on the market, and he looked very happy. Taking this opportunity, Liu Haicheng also asked: "Haiyang, what price do you plan to sell this batch of vegetables?"

"When I came back earlier, I also discussed it with Uncle Chen. What he means is that the vegetables on our farm are of high quality and taste very good. In terms of price, you can still ask for a high price. ”

"But with so many vegetables, if you sell them at a high price, can you sell them?"

As a result, what made Liu Hai sincere was that Zhuang Haiyang was not worried at all: "The first batch of lettuce harvested is only about five acres, plus the leek fields harvested in the same period, it is only more than ten acres. This order is simply not enough to sell.

It's just that the greens should be eaten fresh, so you should contact the restaurants on the island first to see how much they are in demand. If they can't eat so much at once, I'll contact other high-end restaurants in the country.

Take lettuce as an example, even if it tastes raw, it can't be compared with other similar lettuce. You should be aware of how expensive organic vegetables are on the market. Our food must also be sold more expensive than theirs. ”

As soon as these words came out, Liu Haicheng also said directly: "The market price of ordinary lettuce is only three or four yuan per catty." If it is sold at the price of organic vegetables, it is estimated that it will cost eight or nine yuan per catty. It's so expensive, does anyone really buy it?"

"The wool comes from the sheep! Take the lettuce grown in my hometown as an example, I sell it to Shibaoge, and the price of a pound starts at ten yuan. But if you think about it, how much does it cost diners to fry such a plate of lettuce in the Food Treasure Pavilion?"

Looking at Zhuang Haiyang's playful expression, Liu Haicheng also knew that this batch of vegetables would be sold at an unbelievable price in the eyes of ordinary people. But they don't have middlemen, they sell directly to those restaurants, and there is no secondary price increase.

After some accounting, Zhuang Haiyang still priced this batch of lettuce at ten yuan a catty. According to each mu of lettuce, it is estimated that about 1,500 catties can be harvested. The income of one acre of lettuce can reach nearly 20,000 yuan.

The planting cycle of lettuce is not long, and it takes more than a month from planting to harvesting of the first lettuce. Over the course of a year, you should be able to harvest at least seven or eight crops. The output of one acre of vegetables can also reach nearly 200,000.

The vegetable land that has been reclaimed in front of me and used to grow lettuce can earn millions a year in an area of five acres. Thinking of this, Liu Haicheng also found that his brother-in-law spends money very much, and his ability to make money is also amazing!

Aside from the income from lettuce, the price of leeks is naturally more expensive than lettuce. According to Chen Xingwang, these leeks are the most popular among diners in the restaurant. Whether it is fried and eaten, or as a dumpling filling, it is highly sought after by diners.

Another reason why diners love to eat leeks is that they seem to have good tonic effects. Even Zhuang Haiyang thinks that it should not be so exaggerated. The problem is that the news circulated privately among diners has doubled the value of leeks.

After some accounting, Liu Haicheng found that the first batch of ten acres of green vegetables on the market could bring hundreds of thousands of income to Zhuang Haiyang. In addition to the wages of the workers and the cost of fertilizer, this profit can be called a huge profit!

Fortunately, Liu Haicheng also knew that this was just the first test of the knife in the vegetable field of the farm. With the sale of other leafy vegetables and vegetables, the origin of this vegetable plot alone can create at least tens of millions of dollars in income every year.

This is still the first year, and when other farm land begins to produce benefits, the annual profits generated by this farm will only exceed many people's imagination. Thinking of this, Liu Haicheng also felt very much looking forward to it. After all, he has a profit dividend!

In the past, in the small town tax office, the salary was about 10,000 yuan a month. If you come here, the basic salary of the two will reach 30,000 yuan. Coupled with other benefits and bonuses, it shouldn't be a problem to earn millions a year!

What made Liu Hai even more sincere was that when he contacted those buyers and told them the price of the two kinds of green vegetables, the purchasing person in charge of these restaurants said without saying a word: "Okay! Manager Liu, you will harvest that day, and we will send a car over then." ”

"That's it! The first batch of vegetables on the market is not large, so I want to count how much you plan to buy. To ensure the freshness of the harvested vegetables, we harvest them in the early hours of the morning, wash and screen them before weighing them for sale. ”

"That's right, then we can buy the vegetables on the market in your vegetable plot in the future, right?"

According to the instructions of our boss, we will send all the vegetables on the market for inspection as soon as possible. After getting the corresponding test report, we will notify you to come to purchase and inform you of the price of various green vegetables.

Considering that this is the first batch of vegetables on the farm, the price and quantity, we will take care of the local restaurants with high quality. In fact, there are quite a few out-of-town restaurants that have been contacting our farm lately, hoping to order our vegetables!"

This is not to scare these restaurant purchasing managers, but it is a real situation. The person in charge of the restaurant, who had previously purchased beef cattle at the Ocean Ranch, personally called Zhuang Haiyang, hoping to purchase a batch of vegetables from the farm.

can let Wang Lao help intercede, and the person in charge of the restaurant will naturally have a lot of connections. Naturally, he was also clear about the news about the heirloom farm. Such good ingredients are impossible to miss for any high-end restaurant.

In high-end restaurants, a plate of ordinary vegetables can be sold for tens or even hundreds of prices. And how much can the price of a pound of vegetables cost? For those diners who order a meal, tens or hundreds of yuan, what is the calculation?

Again, for the really rich, they care more about the quality of the ingredients than the price of the ingredients. It's really going to be cheaper, presumably those diners still think that if they eat this ingredient, will there be a problem!

No, as the farm began to contact local farmers and ask them to help harvest the greens in the vegetable patch. From harvesting to cleaning, as well as sorting, it takes no manpower. And the wages paid by the farms are also satisfactory to these farmers.

The only regret may be that this kind of work is only a temporary job, and it cannot be paid every month like those regular workers. Even so, such temporary workers still make many farmers feel grateful for the inheritance.

Originally, I thought that the first batch of green vegetables on the market had nearly 10,000 catties, and it was estimated that they could not be sold at one time. It didn't work out, and in the end it wasn't enough to sell. In order to gain some more share, many restaurant purchasing leaders almost fought.

Seeing the somewhat embarrassed brother-in-law, Zhuang Haiyang, as the boss, looked at the person in charge of the restaurant who came in advance, and said directly: "Everyone, there are only so many dishes on the market in the first batch, I must expand the supply channels of the farm."

Since you have come from afar, I would like to establish a stronger supply relationship with you. Therefore, you will reduce some of your purchase share now, and I will give some extra share next time other vegetables are on the market.

When the vegetable fields in the second or even third phases of the farm are reclaimed, we will have a large number of vegetables on the market every month, I just hope you don't have too many by then. Buy some back and see how the market reacts, I think it's safer, isn't it?"

With Zhuang Haiyang, the boss, speaking, these purchasing leaders are not good at arguing about anything. In the final analysis, it is better to eat fresh vegetables. Even if these restaurants have corresponding preservation measures, they are still not as good as doing what they are doing.

As long as the relationship with the farm is good, if there are any good things on the farm in the future, can they also get close to the water and get the moon first?

Now these greens, they are fighting for each other. So when the ranch that has begun to operate, those cattle and sheep are on the market, then it is not completely broken? Not to mention much, if they can get some share, they will wake up laughing!

Other restaurants have ingredients from Heirloom Farm, but their restaurants don't, so what will diners think of their restaurants?

Price is not a problem, the biggest problem for these high-end restaurants is more of a problem that no one has, which involves the credibility and influence of the restaurant. In this case, who would dare to offend Zhuang Haiyang, the farmer?

Speaking of which, the first batch of restaurants to purchase from the farm are all restaurants that have cooperated with Zhuang Haiyang before and purchased king crab and tuna. Therefore, they all know Zhuang Haiyang's character and is still a very kind seller.

Buyers who arrived at the farm for the first time also felt that the place was undergoing earth-shaking changes when they saw the farm living area under the lights. The farm had just started and it looked like a mess.

Who would have thought that in just a few months, the farm not only began to produce output, but also other supporting facilities were completed so quickly. In the restaurant in the farm's living quarters, they also became the first diners of the ingredients.

After eating the lettuce and leeks that will be brought back to the restaurant tomorrow, these buyers are very satisfied and said: "The taste of these two kinds of green vegetables is really good! Mr. Zhuang, when will the other leafy vegetables be on the market?"

"It is estimated that it will take about a week to wait! Rest assured, the follow-up will gradually improve the farm supply chain. What you need to do now is to promote these vegetables and make diners trust the quality of these vegetables.

I'm sure you've heard of the size of my farm. In the future, vegetable fields and plantations will produce ingredients one after another. You are the first buyers, and what we sell on our farm in the future will also give priority to you. ”

Like the Ocean Ranch before it, this farm, which was named Heirloom, was an instant hit when it first opened. As long as the first batch of ingredients on the market is very popular, then the ingredients on the market later, as long as the quality and quantity are guaranteed, there is no worry about sales at all.

Compared to the limited land area of New Zealand, the market is so large. Today's domestic market, in Zhuang Haiyang's view, is afraid that his farm will still not be able to meet the market demand. There is no need to worry about such a thing as unsalable!
