Chapter 50 Garlic Science

After the program of the county television station was broadcast, it attracted a great response. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

First of all, Old Man Su ran to thank him in shock. Because Mu Dong mentioned in the interview that he was inspired by an old artist, he funded more folk artists. And the one who inspired him was naturally Old Man Su.

For this reason, the county TV station specially asked Old Man Su to record a set of shots and edited them into a talk show, so that Old Man Su was also addicted to TV.

The second is the people in the village, who originally didn't know what interviews the TV station broadcast, and the ratings of the county TV station were pitiful. Unexpectedly, Mu Huafeng, this guy, made a special broadcast on the loudspeaker in the village: "Mu Dong of our village is on TV, and it will be broadcast on the county TV station at eight o'clock tonight, please pay attention to the ...... of the villagers."

Around Mu Village, several villages are densely distributed. As a result, not only the people in the village knew about it, but also the people in the nearby villages.

Mu Dong later heard about this, and he couldn't wait to find a noodle to strangle Mu Huafeng.

That night, the villagers saw the boy of the Muhuashan family on the screen, the young man was dressed up in good spirits and talked freely. The key thing is that people are fluent in Mandarin, which is much better than dialects.

Mu Dong has been in Quancheng University for four years, and has been doing business for many years, and his Mandarin has long been fluent and natural.

Mu Dong, a boy who has made a fortune and is famous, why did he get married so early? Some villagers shook their heads.

Some of them were delicate, so they pondered that Mu Dong was married, and the big country of his second uncle's family seemed to be still single. I heard that the relationship between the two brothers is good, and the big country can also follow Mu Dong to make a fortune in the future, do you want to find a matchmaker to inquire?

So, in the next few days, the famous matchmakers in the neighborhood all went to Muda Country and got a depressing news that they already had a partner, and they had recently made a marriage.

There are also Aunt Mu and many relatives, who called to congratulate Mu Dong on TV.

The last wave of strong repercussions came from the media. After the program was broadcast, the media received a lot of calls from the masses and received rave reviews. As a result, various media outlets have made appointments to visit Mudong to dig deep into the report and continue to pay attention.

This time, not only the county media, but also the city and provincial media were moved......

Mu Dong was about to cry, I really didn't want to be interviewed, he was depressed and crazy.

County Magistrate Liu called and thanked Mu Dong for his cooperation. said that the publicity in the early stage had a very good effect, and hoped that Mu Dong would continue to cooperate with the propaganda work in the later stage......

Mu Dong had no choice but to work out a unified time. On the afternoon of June 29, he was interviewed by various media in the office of the primary school. After the interview, I turned off my phone and drove to Quancheng.

Xiao Xiao is going to have summer vacation, and Mu Dong is going back to pick her up.

By the time I arrived at the telecom complex, it was already past 9 o'clock in the evening. Mu Dong made a phone call on the road, and Mu Ma and Xiao Xiao knew that Mu Dong was coming.

Opened the door softly and entered the house, and Mu Ma was still watching TV on the sofa. Seeing her son come in, Mu's mother hurried to serve the food. and told Mu Dong softly: "I asked Xiao Xiao to go to sleep first." ”

Xiao Xiao didn't fall asleep either, he heard the sound and came out of the bedroom.

So, the two most important women in their lives stared at Mu Dong for dinner together.

Mu Dong's heart was very warm and comfortable, and at this moment, all the worries and all the depression disappeared......

The next day, Mu Dong went to Han Yong, revealed his next investment plan to him, and invited him to participate. Mu Dong actually has a lot of funds himself, and this invitation is still to repay the favor last time.

Mu Dong's investment project this time is to store garlic.

In my memory, around May Day in 2001, garlic was fried to an incredible price. The retail price reached more than 12 yuan. Canglan County in Lunan City is the main garlic producing area.

It's the end of June, and it's garlic buying season, and Mudong is ready to act.

In order to avoid the embarrassing situation between him and Han Yong and Cai Jiaojiao last time, Mu Dong took the initiative to formulate a commission plan this time, and he would charge 10% of the commission from the investment income.

In this way, investors can get returns and will have a lot of peace of mind, otherwise, the favor will come and go, endlessly.

After listening to Mu Dong's plan, Han Yong asked, "Did you also invite Cai Jiaojiao and Cheng Qiang to participate this time?"

Several of them have eaten together many times, so they naturally know that they have cooperated with Mu Dong.

Mu Dong replied: "I definitely want to invite, everyone is a friend." ”

Han Yong said: "Then you inform them, let's make an appointment and discuss together." ”

Mu Dong originally made an appointment with Cai Jiaojiao and Cheng Qiang in the afternoon, but now that he heard Han Yong say this, it would be good to discuss it together, and many things in the province would have to be explained twice.

At noon, Mu Dong went to the technology market to buy a new set of desktop computers, and there should have been a computer in the primary school a long time ago, so that it would be much more convenient to check information on the Internet in the future.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, a group of people gathered at a tea house to discuss the next investment plan.

Mu Dong began by explaining the feasibility of the investment, saying: "In China's garlic market, the main sales direction is export, not domestic retail. Affected by the growth of exports and high profits in recent years, the national garlic planting area has continued to grow in recent years. In 2008, affected by the financial crisis, the European and American markets imported fresh garlic and garlic dehydrated products continued to decline, therefore, in 2008, garlic suffered an unprecedented low price, the lowest grade of garlic, the primary purchase price is only a few pennies a pound, garlic cheap hurt farmers, so I predict that last year's planting area will continue to decrease, this year's listing volume will naturally decline, foreign markets, after a year of adjustment, has gradually stabilized. I think that at this time, the investment plan will have a reliable return......"

What Mu Dong said was actually ambiguous, and there was not much data to support it. The problem is that that's all he can say.

Cai Jiaojiao asked, "Where did you get all this information?"

Mu Dong said: "Part of the query from the Internet, the key information comes from our local area. Canglan County, Lunan City, is an important garlic producing area in China, and my hometown, Shuhe County, is an important industrial base for exporting fresh garlic products and dehydrated garlic products. ”

Mu Dong finally said: "For the sake of insurance, I only accept your investment quota of less than 1 million, within this limit, if there is a loss, I am responsible for compensation, if there is a profit, I will take 10% of the commission." ”

In other words, investors may not make money and will definitely not lose money.

The other three people looked at each other, this condition is too rich!

How can this work, no one's money is blown by the wind, how can he do something that allows Mu Dong to take the risk alone?

Cai Jiaojiao first said: "I don't agree, you are not accepting investment, you are giving alms, looking down on us?"

Han Yong and Cheng Qiang also chimed in.

Cai Jiaojiao continued: "The investment risk must be borne together, as the actual operator, the profit sharing is also reasonable, but the commission ratio is too low, I suggest that it be revised to 20%, Brother Han, what do you think?"

Han Yong said: "Agree to agree, 10% is too little." It was also for this reason that Han Yong asked several people to discuss it together.

Mu Dong said: "20% is too much, so let's add a little more, 12%, how about it?"

……

The four of them had a verbal battle, and finally decided on a 15% commission ratio.

The specific investment amount, Han Yong solicited his wife's opinion and determined it to be 1 million. Cai Jiaojiao discussed with her father and decided to invest 1 million with Cheng Qiang.

In the evening, several people printed the agreement, signed it, and then held a small celebratory dinner. In Cheng Qiang's words, this is called "a banquet of victory".

On July 1, after breakfast, Mu Dong carefully checked the doors and windows, water and electricity, locked Xiao Xiao's Audi into the garage, and then drove back to his hometown with his mother and Xiao Xiao.

Xiao Xiao wants to spend two months of summer vacation in his hometown. This is the super benefit that comes with the teaching profession.

Mu Dong was afraid that Xiao Xiao would be too tired from sitting for a long time, so he rested and ate in the service area halfway.

As a result, in the restaurant, I unexpectedly saw Liu Wei who was dining.

Mu Dong was very entangled, not knowing whether to come forward to say hello. After thinking about it for a while, men, you want to be atmospheric, so I took the initiative to step forward and said, "Hello Liu Wei, I didn't expect to meet you here, did you go to Shuhe County?"

Liu Wei had actually seen Mu Dong a long time ago and felt very embarrassed, so she kept pretending not to see it. She thought that Mu Dong had better not see her, or pretended not to see her, and everyone hurriedly finished eating and left.

As a result, Mu Dong actually came to say hello, she secretly slandered in her heart, it was troublesome!

But there was a big smile on his face: "Hello Mu Dong, it's nice to see you, I'll go see my aunt." ”

The two of them were very happy on their faces, but in fact, they were uncomfortable, exchanged a few words, and dined separately.

Liu Wei glanced at Xiao Xiao a few times, and thought to herself, Mu Dong, this kid is very blessed, and his daughter-in-law is very beautiful, as if she is pregnant.

Xiao Xiao also secretly looked at Liu Wei, this woman's temperament is so good, Mu Dong said that it was his former colleague, he hadn't seen it?

At noon, Han Yong and Cai Jiaojiao called separately and said that their respective funds had been remitted to Mu Dong's account.

At one o'clock in the afternoon, when the three of Mu Dong arrived at the primary school, their homes had now been razed to the ground, and the whole family could only live in the school. Fortunately, there are many rooms, and the two rooms on the east side of the office have been cleaned up, and the beds and furniture moved from home are placed, and you can move in directly.

Mu Dong informed his family and came at three o'clock in the afternoon to discuss something together. And let the eldest aunt and the second aunt also come over.

Aunt Mu knew that Xiao Xiao was back, so she rushed over first, and took Xiao Xiao to go to other rooms to whisper. The intimate feelings between Mu Dong and his aunt have now been perfectly grafted onto Xiao Xiao, of course, the main reason is that Xiao Xiao is also well-behaved and deeply loved by Aunt Mu.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, the elementary school office, all the people of the Mu family came. Everyone is speculating that Mu Dong estimates that he has a new plan.

Mu Dong began to announce his new plan to collect and store garlic and sell it to the big supermarkets in Quancheng (this is nonsense, of course), and everyone is welcome to invest.

However, what is different this time is that Mu Dong announced that he would take 10% of the income of each family, but he promised not to lose money, and if he lost money, he would be responsible for compensation.

Aunt Mu first expressed her support: "No problem, one percent is too little, I think it should be half of it." ”

Mu Dong smiled: "Auntie, don't you make trouble, okay?"

Aunt Mu also said: "That's it, his aunt." We still listen to Xiaodong. ”

Aunt Mu's words frightened Aunt Mu, and she could barely accept it, half of it, it was too scary!

Others said, "No problem."

Aunt Mu took the lead and paid 200,000 yuan herself. Mu Xiaoxia also said that she paid 200,000. Then Second Uncle Mu 150,000 and Second Aunt Mu 100,000.

Aunt Mu said that her family also contributed 200,000.

Dad Mu sat in the corner and smoked, and finally said, "Lao Tzu has no money, and the money in his hand is not enough to build a house." ”

Everyone burst into laughter, Mu Dong scratched his head, and said, "Dad, you can actually invest some money, the money to build a house, I will give it to you." ”

Mu Dad threw down a sentence stubbornly: "If you don't vote, I'll build the house myself, and I won't ask you for it if it's not enough." ”

Well, Mu Dong was helpless and didn't say anything more, anyway, he wouldn't lack his father's expenses.

Everyone is very happy, the last time the sand happened, everyone tasted the sweetness. If you do it again now, you will have no worries about food and clothing in the future.

Uncle Mu, who had been smoking with Mu's father, suddenly asked, "Xiaodong, where are you going to rent cold storage?"

Mu Dong asked suspiciously, "Why are you renting cold storage?"

Third Uncle Mu was more puzzled than Mu Dong and asked, "Where are you going to put the garlic?"

Mu Dong said: "It's right here." I can put it upstairs, and I plan to put a platform at the bottom and cover it with a tarpaulin in the yard like a wicker......"

Uncle Mu was anxious: "Stop, you, return the tarpaulin, you don't understand anything after a long time?"

Mu Dong said: "What's the matter? Third uncle, I've seen it before, many acquisition outlets are placed in their own yards?"

Third Uncle Mu pursed his lips and said, "Have you ever seen a pile of garlic in someone's yard after October every year?"

Mu Dong was speechless, he really didn't know this. He thinks that there are so many rooms in the school, and it is very suitable to store garlic.

Uncle Mu sold vegetables in his early years and knew more about garlic. He took a puff of his cigarette and said slowly: "The garlic is harvested in June every year, and it can be dried in the field to allow the moisture of the garlic skin to evaporate naturally. After the garlic skin is thinned and dried, it can be stored naturally within three months. If it is stored for more than three months, it needs to be put into cold storage and stored at low temperature. Do you know why, Xiaodong?"

Third Uncle Mu sold a pass, spit out a cigarette, and asked leisurely.

How did Mu Dong know, Mu Ran shook his head.

Aunt Mu was anxious: "If you have something to say, say it quickly!" Anyway, she saved face for the third brother and didn't say the next four words.

Third Uncle Mu glanced at the eldest sister with dissatisfaction, and continued: "Because, under natural conditions, after three months, garlic will sprout!"

Mu Dong gasped!

Fortunately, there is a third uncle in the family who understands, otherwise, the joke will be too big! More than 20 million funds almost turned into piles of sprouted garlic!

Mu Dong was shocked and didn't speak for a long time.

Uncle Mu asked again, "What grade of garlic do you plan to store?"

This Mu Dong really knew something, and he replied: "I plan to buy currency, which is ordinary garlic on the market." ”

Third Uncle Mu nodded approvingly, and then asked, "Do you know what grades of garlic are in addition to currency?"

This Mu Dong didn't know, shook his head helplessly, and said, "Third uncle, you can give us some science!"

Uncle Mu continued: "Garlic, according to the variety, can be divided into two types, one is hybrid garlic, and the other is four or six cloves. Hybrid garlic does not grow garlic sprouts, and the garlic head is large, generally with a diameter of more than six centimeters, and some can reach ten centimeters. The garlic skin is very thick and generally has more than three or four layers, and each head of garlic has more than ten garlic cloves, and the innermost layer is often interspersed with three or four very small garlic cloves. This kind of garlic has a large yield, because there are no garlic sprouts, the field management is relatively simple, so the price is relatively low, the internal structure of hybrid garlic is loose, and the taste is relatively poor. ”

Mu Dong was very surprised and said, "I always thought that this kind of big garlic was of good quality, but it turned out to be relatively poor?"

Uncle Mu continued: "Four or six petals are unique to our Lunan variety, which is mainly cultivated in the area of Canglan County. Four or six cloves have garlic sprouts, which are harvested every spring and garlic heads in summer. The name "Four or Six Cloves" is because each head of garlic is generally four to six cloves, which grow around the garlic sprouts in the center. There is a riddle, there are several brothers, around the pillar, that is, four or six cloves, hybrid garlic does not have the middle pillar. ”

Mu Dong hurriedly asked, "What about the taste?"

Third Uncle Mu glanced at him and continued: "The yield of four or six cloves is low, the price is high, and the garlic is relatively small. But because there are only four to six cloves per head of garlic, garlic cloves are larger than hybrid garlic. The tissue of four or six cloves is dense, cut or smashed into garlic paste, the juice is rich, and the taste is very good. This kind of garlic is rarely seen on the market, and it is generally sold sporadically in some high-end supermarkets, or a small number of farmers braided garlic into big braids and sold it in the city. ”

Mu Dong was helpless, what was sold in the supermarket in the city was hybrid garlic with a poor taste. The garlic braids that roadside farmers hang from the handlebars of their bikes are instead high-quality four or six cloves.

But how many people in the city know this truth? Most of them think that the quality of hybrid garlic is better, like Mu Dong, right?

Mu Dong thought for a while and continued to ask: "Third uncle, you can't see four or six petals on the market, where are the four or six petals sold?"

Uncle Mu said: "Most of them are exported, or directly exported garlic, or peeled and processed into fresh-keeping garlic." Several vegetable and fruit food factories in the county are mainly engaged in this kind of business. ”

Mu Dong felt that he was panicked, a good export was good, and the quality was average to domestic consumers, what was the matter!

Mu Dong has long known that garlic mainly depends on exports, and he also thinks that the exported garlic is the same as the one bought in the supermarket!

Mu Dong then asked: "Why don't we eat four or six petals in our country?"

Uncle Mu said: "Why don't you eat it? There are also sporadic sales in China, the key is that the price is high, and many people don't recognize it." ”

Mu Dong was speechless. Indeed, they are all sold together, three pieces of hybrid garlic per catty, four or six cloves of five pieces per catty, I believe that the vast majority of people will choose hybrid garlic.

"Is this talking about the variety, and the grade?" Mu Dong then asked.

Uncle Mu continued: "There is no grade of hybrid garlic, it is basically the same, so hybrid garlic can also be classified as currency. Four or six cloves of garlic, more than 6 cm in diameter, are first-class garlic, and 4 cm to 6 cm in diameter are second-class garlic. If the diameter is less than 4 cm, it is the currency you are talking about. ”

Mu Dong asked: "Since there are four or six petals of currency on the market, why can't you see them in the supermarket?"
