Chapter 161: Clam Bay
"Alpine ancient tea, wonderful. Connor made a cup of tea with his own hands, smelled the indifferent natural aroma of tea, and smiled.
"Have you been to the Dashishan Tea Garden?" Ye Chen asked with a smile.
Two days before his wedding, Connor and his party entered the mountains once and stayed overnight before coming out. After Ye Chen's wedding, Connor and the others went in again and stayed for two nights.
"Been there. I heard it was a tea plantation you inherited from a magical person......" Connor said with exaggerated body language.
"My master, an ordinary old man who lives in the mountains. ”
"It's amazing to be able to live there. After drinking the tea, Connor talked about their plan to invest in a tea plantation in Mengshan: "Mr. Zhang said that your local government is planning to establish a large-scale Mengshan native tea breeding base in Washan and Wakou villages. In your hometown before, we had something to say that we couldn't go into detail. Arbor tea and shrub tea should be the same kind of tea tree, but the original tea tree has been domesticated and changed, and the growth environment is different, and the material components contained in the tea are also different. Shrub tea trees are better, and the top one should be alpine ancient tea. This time, we collected detailed samples and brought them back for laboratory analysis, and the results of the analysis were shared with the Qingshan Town Government, but did not include the high mountain tea tree. ”
Ye Chen looked at Connor, waiting for his next ......
"Growing tea trees above 2,500 meters above sea level is already very difficult. I have done the analysis of alpine ancient tea before, which contains a variety of minerals that are very beneficial to the human body, which should be caused by the environment of the planting site. We want to invest in alpine tea plantations and hope to cooperate. ”
"What kind of cooperation method?" Ye Chen asked as he poured hot water into Connor's cup.
"It will take a long time for the government to establish a breeding base for Mengshan native tea varieties, and it will probably take at least five years to export tea seedlings. We have found that the tea trees in the high mountain tea plantation bear a lot of tea fruits, which can be used for us to breed tea tree seedlings ourselves?" Connor smiled and looked at Ye Chen.
Ye Chen hesitated: "This...... I also need tea tree seedlings myself. ”
"Mr. Zhang said that if you want to contract the valley of the ancient tea plantation, we can help you. Connor tapped lightly on the coffee table in front of him.
420 million ......
How much does it cost to contract the valley?
Ye Chen's brows tightened.
The valley that Ye Chen fancied was at most 20,000 acres. According to the contract price of barren mountains, one mu of land can cost a maximum of more than ten yuan a year...... The price Zhang Guohua told himself was simply unreasonable.
"Horses sell skins!"
Ye Chen understood, these people were playing tricks on themselves.
Barren mountain ...... in nature reserves Dashishan, if it is contracted, will not allow for large-scale commercial development projects, and can only plant trees. Planting trees on stones is no easy task. It can be said that if it were not for the development of the Mengshan Scenic Area, the Dashi Mountain Range in the Mengchuan Mountains would not have been given away for nothing.
"Orange is orange born in Huainan, and orange is born in Huaibei. The same goes for tea...... Are you sure you can contract land in Dashishan at a reasonable price. ”
"Yes. Connor smiled happily and continued, "Our investment is to build a complete tea industry chain, with an investment of billions of dollars, and a large laboratory. Rest assured, our market positioning is in Europe and the United States, mainly matcha, instant tea and tea-derived instant consumer products, will not participate in the tea market, and your business will not conflict, there will be spillover. After all, the resources you have are unique and cannot be replicated. We are still the closest partnership......"
"I think about it. ”
It's too tiring to do an ordinary tea business.
The current situation, next year's spring tea, Chenshan small species, Ye Chen is estimated to be able to pick only in his own tea garden. However, there are more than four acres of alpine ancient tea plantations, which are enough to keep you busy.
Ye Chen's positioning for himself is to make the most expensive and best tea, and the tea plantations that Connor and they invested in must be mass consumer goods, otherwise billions of dollars of investment will never be able to recover the cost. Ye Chen, who owns the ancient tea garden in the high mountains, the greater the fame of the native tea varieties of Mengshan, the greater the benefits to him in theory.
"For two years in a row, we will provide half of the tea tree fruit produced by your alpine tea plantation. Ye Chen said.
"Five years. For tea trees with a five-year growth period, the tea leaves picked will not be too bad. Connor waved his hand and bargained.
"Three years. After such a long time, you should be able to cultivate your own tea seeds. ”
"Okay. But in the first year, we wanted 70 percent of the tea fruits. ”
"No problem. ”
"It was a pleasure to work with. Connor stretched out his hand and continued: "We will only help you negotiate the land lease, and your local government will have the final say on how much it is per acre, in short, it will not be too much." ”
“OK。 Ye Chen felt a little depressed in his heart again.
"Let's go, go to Clam Bay to catch clams, and make an appointment with a few friends. Connor smiled and hugged Ye Chen's shoulders, without his previous seriousness.
Heading to the docks, Connor's friends were gone.
Ye Chen and Zhao Jiyang got on Connor's luxury yacht.
The 11.5-metre-long single-person yacht is luxurious with two bedrooms, kitchen, bathroom and more.
However, in the current season, the sea breeze blows on the face and makes the face hurt, which is the activity in the cabin.
It seems to be a brand of Sea Ray, and the cockpit of the yacht is full of sci-fi style, like the feeling of driving an outer space spaceship.
This yacht is Connor's baby, and Ye Chen only came up twice when he was an employee of Connor before. More often than not, he will sail another battered fishing yacht......
Clam Bay is located in the north of the Golden Gate Bridge, more than 10 kilometers, mainly producing oysters, and there are several large oyster farms.
It was not far from where Ye Chen used to live, and he often went to eat oysters.
A freshly caught oyster costs only a few cents, and a person can eat all he can eat for ten dollars if he brings his own charcoal grill.
Take a yacht past and dock at the marina of the farm. A high natural rock flat on the shore is where many people enjoy the delicious taste of nature.
"Hi, Ye Chen. A young blonde shouted from the edge of the rocky platform.
"Chris is back?" Chris is Connor's youngest daughter, she is quite beautiful, tall and long-legged, and twenty years old, Ye Chen has watched her grow up.
"In today's schools, there is no binding force on students at all. Connor shook his head helplessly.
Ye Chen looked at her and waved his hand, and said to Zhao Jiyang, "Chris, Connor's daughter." ”
The three of them walked over, and Ye Chen knew Chris and a middle-aged man named Carl. The other seven didn't know anyone...... This group of people is old and young, and the oldest should be a grandfather.
Introduce each other to each other.
Ye Chen is not informal, he sits down and eats, eats oysters with white wine, and basks in the warm sun.
