Volume 3 Chapter 54 Business is not good, and men are embarrassed

After the race between the capocro and the herdsmen, Li Sheng and Chen Bo also left. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info They talked a little bit about the selection of young players in the country. Soon the conversation turned to business.

Chen Bo told him some sales things, and finally told him a not-so-good news: "A friend of Jipan told me that a company in China has suddenly increased its investment in the artificial cultivation of matsutake mushrooms. It seems that I have found a suitable medium. ”

When Li Sheng heard this, he was also a little surprised. Matsutake mushrooms are a golden doll for Silent Farm. At least 1,000 tons of second-class matsutake mushrooms a year can benefit him more than 300 million euros. He was able to benefit like that because he monopolized the global market for a few months of the year. If a competitor emerges, price reductions are inevitable.

"What stage are they at?" if it's just starting, then he still has at least five years of buffer.

Chen Bo shook his head and said, "I don't know. However, the Jipan people have been studying the artificial cultivation of matsutake mushrooms for more than 20 years, and the public has always focused on semi-artificial cultivation. This will suddenly create a culture medium, and I don't know how long it has been secretly researched, and there is still a long way to go. How we were also the market leader a few years later. And when it comes to price competition, they may not be able to compare with you. ”

Although Chen Bo didn't know the cost of matsutake production here at Silent Farm, he estimated that it would not be very high. At least they hadn't heard of Li Sheng's research investment in this area.

Li Sheng didn't deny it, nodded and said: "I'm really not afraid of a price war, it's just that matsutake is a fist product in my plan." Now it seems that this fist product is a bit precarious. ”

Chen Bo smiled and said: "In fact, there are many things on your farm that are unique, although there are wild matsutake mushrooms, but although the Southern Dynasty and the chicken plate are said to be artificially cultivated, they are actually semi-artificial, and the yield per unit area is very low, it is said that in the highest place, the annual output of one hectare of mountain forest is only one hundred and twenty kilograms." Now the only one who can really produce artificially is you. And the white jade snail, that thing is still very popular in the hotel. In addition, the caviar produced on the farm is now recognized by the market. At least the latter two are not possible for others to come up with for the time being. ”

Of course, Li Sheng knows this, but those two things may be able to become the nominal fist products of the farm, and they can't reach that status in Li Sheng's heart. Because he doesn't get enough of it.

He thought for a moment and said, "Next year, I will increase the production of matsutake mushrooms, and you can increase sales over there?"

"That's certainly no problem. The market over there is actually quite a big one. And the domestic market can be regarded as cultivated. Chen Bo said with a smile. "In fact, even if the chicken plate is cultivated in the future, we can try to suppress them in the domestic market. The middle class in China is now said to be more than 500 million, and even if only 1 percent of them are consumed, your output is not enough. ”

In fact, things like matsutake mushrooms, snails, and caviar are quite expensive, and the people who eat them are pretentious. Those high-paid white-collar boys will not be stingy with that little bit of money when they pick up girls and play with women. Don't even want those bosses and officials to invite them to dinner, expensive things are not on the table, can they be regarded as treats?

Those people consume one meal a month, and Li Sheng's output is basically the same.

"By the way, Lao Fei and Ali didn't come just to see the work of the farm. ”

"They're here for the forage business. I plan to give in, and I don't want to interfere with the production of the farm in the future. Leave the initiative of cooperation to me. However, I also agreed to reduce the price of forage by a hundred reais. ”

Chen Bo didn't raise any objections to this matter, he also has 16% of the shares, which has his benefits. It's a bit hypocritical to oppose it.

However, he was also relieved to learn that Fernando was going to give in.

In Brazil, he couldn't help Li Sheng much if he wanted to. If Fernando and Raimondo stumbled on the farm, he feared that Li Sheng might not be able to hold on. If the Silent Farm was not in Li Sheng's hands, the market he had managed to build would probably be completely lost.

He smiled and said, "Looks like he's smelling something wrong." He thought it was because Li Sheng gave the honey directly to him as an agent, which made Fernando feel that Li Sheng was wary of them. As for why they would give in, he couldn't figure it out. And Li Sheng didn't seem to be going to say it, so he didn't want to ask too much.

He added, "Luo Zi said that he planned to come over in a few days. ”

Li Sheng was a little strange: "Since he is coming, why don't he come with you?"

"Haven't got his Everest yet. Haha!" Chen Bo couldn't help but laugh when he thought of the many good shows he had seen.

Li Sheng didn't react for a while.

"It's the girl he's chasing. Your old neighbors. ”

Li Sheng also smiled and said, "Since you said you are coming, you should have some eyebrows." ”

"I should be able to talk, otherwise I wouldn't have said that I could come here with me. I don't know when he'll come, though. Just let me say hi to you and prepare some more delicious food. ”

Li Sheng smiled and didn't speak.

The two chatted in the office for a while, and Li Sheng saw that the time was almost up, so he went to pick up Tia.

The school has opened, although Tia is no longer a teacher, but she listens to Li Sheng's words and still goes to the school to recruit teachers to study. So as long as it's a school class, she will go to school. He would pick her up when he had time to eat at the villa.

Seeing Li Sheng, Tia trotted over, grabbed his hand, and said to Chen Bo, "Chen Bo, hello!"

She was greeting Chen Bo in Chinese, and Chen Bo was not surprised, he was already surprised yesterday. He really didn't expect that a person could learn to speak Chinese in a few months, and this person had not even received formal education before, which was simply against the principles of pedagogy. But the reality was right in front of him.

Li Sheng pulled her and said, "Let's go back to eat first." ”

After lunch, Li Sheng asked Tia to take a nap. Chen Bo watched the two interact on the side, with an unknown smile on his face.

After Tia went upstairs, Chen Bo whispered, "It's not my sister now." He didn't dare to say too loudly, now Tia is not the girl who didn't know Chinese at the beginning, and it would be embarrassing to hear it.

Li Sheng smiled and did not deny it. He didn't feel like there was anything to deny. Yes yes, no yes no.

Seeing that Li Sheng acquiesced, Chen Bo smiled dumbly and said, "You have to wait for a few years." It's pathetic. "He can be regarded as a woman who has read countless women, and of course it can be seen that Tia is still a girl. He knew that Li Sheng would never eat Tia at this time. If there is a day, it must be after the other person becomes an adult.

Li Sheng ignored his ridicule, and only said, "I plan to let her leave the farm for two years first." Isn't Anthony going to Huaxia? I plan to let her study in Huaxia for a few years. ”

"Studying in Huaxia?" Chen Bo was a little puzzled why he was reluctant to seek the near and far. To say how good Huaxia's education is, he can't speak with his heart. If he wants Tia to go to school, he doesn't think that he is much better in China than in Brazil.

Li Sheng nodded and said, "Huaxia's education method is better for her. She learns things quickly, and Huaxia's education method is cramming, which is just right for her. ”

He's actually been thinking about it for quite some time. Previously, he did want Tia to go to school in Brazil. But he also has a selfish heart, hoping that Tia will know more about Huaxia. Huaxia's education method is very stressful for most children, but he feels that it is nothing to Tia.

How high Tia's level of intelligence was, he hadn't tested. Judging from the speed at which she learns things, it should be very high. In particular, she can calm down on learning.

He felt that Tia was too old to start her formal education, and that the most important thing now was to learn the basics first. As for the other skills, he can develop them slowly.

Moreover, he doesn't know many people in Brazil, in Huaxia, he has two friends like Chen Bo and Luo Zheng who can help take care of it, and Anthony and Chahi are there, which can also make Tia less lonely.

In fact, the most important thing is that he feels that if he is in Brazil, Tia is still too close. He was afraid that he would do something too beastly. He almost got out of control that night, and he was really scared.

Chen Bo thought crookedly: "You kid won't really be playing with bride cultivation." ”

Li Sheng ignored his nonsense and said, "Do you want to take a nap?" ”

Chen Bo didn't stay in Brazil for long, leaving the farm two days later.

And at this time, the Silent Farm Games finally opened. Originally, Li Sheng didn't plan to do any opening ceremony, but Anthony was about to go to Blancara in China, and brought a photographer. This is to cover the rhythm of this sports meeting. He had to temporarily add a simple ceremony and say a few words at the opening ceremony. Then it was announced that the Games had officially begun.

There were a lot of competitions on this first day, such as archery, horse racing, football and basketball.

The archery contestants are all shirtless and have various patterns painted on their upper bodies. This event is also the largest number of participants in the individual competition, with participants ranging in age from fifteen to forty.

The venue for this event was prepared temporarily. That is, a white line was drawn on the grass, and the arrow target was inserted seventy meters away. There are no preliminaries in this competition, and all the participants shoot 20 arrows first, and the total number of rounds wins. If, after shooting, there are the same number of rings, then shoot another twenty arrows with the same number of rings, until the specific ranking is determined.

There can't be any stadium, no spectator seats, everyone is watching from a distance. Blanca seemed to be done with the interview and walked up to Li Sheng's side. She didn't hold the tape recorder either, and said with a smile: "Li, I have to say, this is the most unique sports meeting I have ever seen." "Especially those athletes who are almost naked.

Li Sheng smiled and said, "This is just an ordinary peasant sports meeting. ”

"Peasant Games?" seems to be a new term. Oh, that looks like a bull's-eye!" Blanca saw an arrow shot by a number three Gilolo archer right in the middle of the heart. It's luck, but it's also luck that requires strength.

Li Sheng also happened to see this arrow, and said with a smile: "There is a very reasonable saying in Huaxia. ”

"Oh, what's that?"

"The master is in the folk!"

Tia, who had been holding Li Sheng's hand, interjected at this time: "Actually, Li is the best archer. (To be continued.) )
