Chapter 408: Spreading Food Culture
For the invited buyers, since they are willing to accept the invitation and take a plane to the ranch, it is enough to show that they want to cooperate with the ranch and want to purchase beef cattle raised on the ranch.
Even if he learned that Zhuang Haiyang planned to choose a dealer by selling the whole cattle, all the buyers who came did not leave. In the face of the pasture that has become more planned and beautiful again, many buyers feel that the ranch is really getting better and better.
Seeing the newly opened plantation, these buyers were invited by Zhuang Haiyang to taste the fruits and vegetables grown in the pasture. Just like the market feedback, the taste of these fruits and vegetables is indeed very tasty.
Judging from the work that the plantation staff do every day, it seems that it is no different from other plantations. However, it is the same cultivation pattern that grows ingredients that are different from other plantations.
After visiting the kiwifruit orchard and kiwiberry and vineyard, these buyers can also see that the variety of products available for sale on the farm is also increasing. Even, Zhuang Haiyang has informed that this year, the ranch will also be engaged in fishing.
Upon hearing this news, many buyers were curious: "Mr. Zhuang, your ranch is in good development, why are you still engaged in fishing? As far as I know, you shouldn't rely on this subsidy to lose money, right?"
Buyers who know the situation of the ranch know that before Zhuang Haiyang bought the ranch, the real profit of the ranch has always been the fishing boat of the ranch. But this approach seems to many people to be a bit unprofessional.
If a person is engaged in ranch breeding and planting, why should he compete for work with a fisherman?
In the face of these inquiries, Zhuang Haiyang said with a smile: "For me, ranching is a side business, and fishing is my main business. The most fundamental reason why I chose to buy this ranch in the first place was that it faces the sea and has a fishing license.
In fact, my first pot of gold came from the sea. And the reason why my ranch is named Sea Ranch is also because of my love for the sea. At least I know that the area around Nyusile is rich in fisheries. ”
"Yes! It's just seafood, and for us, there's a lot to choose from. ”
Actually, I've booked an ocean-going fishing boat. If the catch cannot be sold in New Zealand, it can still be shipped back to my home country for sale, and I believe the income will be very good. ”
After listening to what Zhuang Haiyang said, these buyers also felt a little reasonable. But they didn't know that even if it was fishing in the open sea, Zhuang Haiyang was taking a boutique route. The seafood he fished is believed to still be a sought-after item.
When Zhuang Haiyang deliberately brought these buyers to the beach full of oysters, many buyers were also surprised and said: "Mr. Zhuang, are these oysters farmed?"
"How do you breed this kind of place? It's pure oysters, real natural oysters. In fact, these oysters are the same species as the famous Marle oysters in the South Island. It's just that I don't want to sell it for the time being. ”
Looking at the dense oysters growing on the reef, many buyers said with envy: "If these oysters are of good quality, I believe they will also bring a lot of income to the ranch." Mr. Zhuang, you are so lucky!"
"Actually, I've always felt that way. When I first bought the ranch, Mr. Scu showed me around. It's just that he didn't manage it very well, and from time to time he would come over to dig some for food, and in the end he failed to expand the breeding scale of oysters.
On the contrary, for me, I am more good at cultivating and cultivating marine organisms. On the island I rented, there was also an oyster island that was bigger than that. The quality of the oysters on that island is not much worse than this in my opinion. ”
"Really? Then next time we have the chance, maybe we can also cooperate on oyster products. ”
"There will be a chance! It's just that as you all know, my country is also a big food consumer. For many customers, they will want to taste something really good. So, I have to prioritize my home country.
Just like these things raised on my ranch, if I am willing to use them as products abroad, I believe there is no market. However, I believe in the principle of win-win cooperation, and I am willing to work with you to manage the ranch industry well. ”
From the words spoken by Zhuang Haiyang, it is not difficult to hear the meaning of beating. If these buyers really think that without them, the things on the ranch will not be sold, it must be a joke.
When the restaurant cooperated with the Chen family comes in, the cattle and sheep raised in the pasture will be supplied to domestic restaurants by Zhuang Haiyang every month. This also means that if these old people can't afford to sell at a price, Zhuang Haiyang will put aside their own sales.
After visiting the ranch like a flower, I received a call from Januk, and Zhuang Haiyang also signaled: "Everyone, lunch time has come, let's go back to have lunch first, and then discuss the cooperation of commercial cattle." ”
For such an invitation, these buyers will naturally not refuse. Arriving in front of the villa where Zhuang Haiyang lived, and seeing the dining scene that had been simply arranged, these foreigners were not polite and found a place to sit down.
And Zhuang Haiyang also instructed the staff to bring out the red wine and some pre-dinner snacks. Seeing the high-end red wine prepared by Zhuang Haiyang, many buyers also felt that Zhuang Haiyang was still very generous in this regard.
Of course, this does not rule out that Zhuang Haiyang has relatively high requirements for his own living standards!
The chef who led the buyer and pointed to the steak in the fresh-keeping cabinet, Zhuang Haiyang also smiled and said: "You are all the chefs of the restaurant, and I believe that you are more professional than me in terms of the quality and cooking of steaks."
Next, you can choose any three different parts of the steak and cook it yourself, or you can ask someone else to try it. As for my words, I will also prepare some special dishes for you, I hope you will not be disappointed. ”
"Mr. Zhuang, can we take a look at the dishes you prepared?"
"Of course, I just hope that after you read it, it won't affect your appetite. As professional chefs, you should know that any kind of ingredient, as long as it is handled properly, will become a delicacy. Right?"
"Yes, it seems that Mr. Zhuang is also a gourmet!"
"Gourmets don't dare to be a foodie, but a lot of the time, I prefer to cook some of my own dishes. I'm sure you've all heard what I told you to the head of purchasing at your restaurant. In your opinion, buying a whole cow can be wasteful.
But in my opinion, each ingredient can be prepared in different ways to make a food that diners love. You should know that the culture of Chinese cuisine has a long heritage. And the ways to eat cows are naturally varied. ”
With these chefs who were like curious babies, Zhuang Haiyang pointed to a plate of ingredients cut out like jelly and said: "In my opinion, in addition to the cow's hair, there are also those excrements that cannot be eaten, and everything else can be eaten."
The dish in front of me is made from cow skin. Of course, everyone's taste and taste are different, and I personally like this dish. If you're interested, you can also try it, and there are dipping sauces prepared here. ”
Kraft jelly, a dish that is very popular in China, seems to be rarely seen abroad. Many chefs find it strange to learn that this jelly-like food, which is cut into slices, is made from cowhide.
Just when I saw Zhuang Haiyang, I naturally picked up a piece of kraft jelly, dipped it in a little chili sauce and ate it. Many chefs are also eager to use forks and learn the way of Zhuang Haiyang, and begin to taste this somewhat peculiar delicacy.
Chefs are a little more emboldened to accept strange delicacies than ordinary diners. Although they felt a little intimidated by this kind of food, it did not prevent them from tasting it boldly.
After tasting it, many chefs commented, "It's very textured! The grains are very elastic and taste good." Mr. Zhuang, are you sure that this is made of cowhide?"
If you're interested, I don't mind telling you how this dish is made. One thing I must stress is that I am not a professional chef. This dish tastes good, but it is more because of the ingredients. ”
If it is said that kraft jelly has greatly increased the knowledge of these chefs, and when they see those platter-style braised dishes, many chefs feel that the Chinese people are really incredible. The offal of cows and cows are all used as food by them.
But after trying it, they felt that the dishes tasted really good. If you have the guts to try it, it should be loved by some special diners. For some diners, they are curious.
This kind of dish that ordinary people may not dare to try, but such diners will be happy to taste it. Once you have tasted it, I believe that these diners with a curious mindset should also fall in love with these special dishes.
You don't see, those foreigners who come to China to look for delicious food, when they first came, they felt that this could not be eaten, that could not be eaten. But after really eating, all of them were conquered by Chinese food. Foodies who really know how to eat deliciously, I believe that there is no shortage in every country.
Even the last dish of beef brisket stewed radish also made these professional chefs really understand that in the eyes of Chinese people, in addition to hair and excrement, anything on the cow can be made into a delicacy.
Eventually, the chefs asked for a copy of how to prepare the dishes. Zhuang Haiyang, who has already prepared, is naturally a copy of each person, and said with a secret smile in his heart: "I can also be regarded as promoting Chinese cuisine!"
When these chefs start to take out the steaks placed in the crisper and see that the steaks are delicately marbled with texture, many chefs know that the quality of these beef is indeed extraordinary.
In order not to waste such good beef, they naturally showed their housekeeping skills. What the buyers outside the door didn't expect was that it was not they who tasted the chef's craftsmanship first, but Zhuang Haiyang, who had taken the chef as a guinea pig before.
Hearing Zhuang Haiyang praise 'great, good' and the like, these chefs were also happy. For professional chefs, the affirmation of diners is also the greatest compliment to them!
