Just two days after eating the fried chicken thighs, there was good news from the production department.

After tossing for half a year, the chicory was finally softened successfully in the darkroom, at the most suitable temperature, in the way of hydroponics.

No more hollow, no more divergent, no longer green, no longer of different sizes.

The trio in charge of this project held their heads high, like generals who had won a battle.

County Magistrate Lu received a call from You Yu and couldn't take care of lunch, so he asked Ke Qingguo to drive quickly, he wanted to come to the Pea Group to have a look, which is known as the "golden dish of the European royal family"!

"That's it?" County Magistrate Lu took a whole, cleaned chicory from You Yu's hand and asked curiously.

The whole chicory has white roots and pale yellow edges.

And each leaf is wrapped together, which looks very close to baby cabbage.

"Yes, this dish can be eaten just like that, or dipped in some salad dressing!" You Yu took disposable gloves, broke a few leaves of the vegetable in his hand, and handed them to County Magistrate Lu.

County Magistrate Lu didn't have much interest in salad dressing, so he ate it as it was.

"Well, it smells fresh, tender and sweet, but there is a little bitterness in the sweetness."

"Leader, chicory is not only rich in carotene and potassium, calcium and other mineral elements. It also contains bitter substances such as horse chestnut quetin, leaf lettuce glycosides, and mountain lettuce.

These bitter substances have the effect of clearing the liver and gallbladder and increasing appetite. Eat a few raw slices before meals, appetizing; After drinking, eat a few slices to relieve hangover! ”

"It's really a medicinal and edible vegetable, but if this taste is eaten raw, it has to be promoted in a high-end hotel."

"Chicory will turn brown when boiled in boiling water for too long, and it will taste soft and bitter. You can use a fierce fire to stir-fry quickly, and you should eat it immediately when it is cooked, and you can't leave it for a long time. ”

"Seeing that you have been tossing for more than half a year, is it difficult to control the planting process?"

"Those who are difficult will not, but those who will will not be difficult! Generally speaking, it is necessary to create a suitable environment for their growth, control the moisture and temperature required for the growth process, and protect the whole growth process from 100% light, and harvest and transportation are best carried out in a low-light environment."

"What about input costs and outputs? Is the technology mature enough to be rolled out on a large scale? ”

"With greenhouse soil culture, we tested four batches before and after, but they were unsuccessful. The plant factory model used now is on the high side, and it took two hydropoonics to finally touch the threshold. If you want to promote it on a large scale, at least, you have to wait until this year to plant another batch of fleshy roots to try it."

"Good! Good! Good! In two years, I hope that chicory can also become a special business card of agricultural products in our Jiang County! ”

"Please rest assured that the leader will complete the task!"

The county magistrate Lu was convinced, and he couldn't wait to call his family in Beijing, saying that he also needed a batch of high-quality chicory source seeds that could be planted on 500 acres of land, and asked the family to support him quickly!

In the past three years, Jiang County's agriculture has been praised by the province several times.

With the cooperation with the pea group, the poverty alleviation task has taken off the hat of more than 10 villages in two years.

He has been nesting in Jiang County and didn't want to move, he just wants to wait.

From the largest aerial strawberry orchard in Asia under construction by the Pea Group this year, to the successful promotion of thousands of acres of Olympic vegetables, as well as the chicory that is still a "strange commodity" in China.

Jiang County's economy, especially the agricultural economy, is about to take off

You Yu didn't expect that the one-third of an acre of land he tossed was so closely related to the career of County Magistrate Lu.

She is still worrying about where to build one, and the most suitable chicory plantation factory?

The eight-acre industrial park is now full, and the more than two acres of vegetable land in the park are treated as treasures by the old chef, and he has to take care of them himself every day, and pulling his dishes is like killing him.

Outside the industrial park, less than 50 meters is a 200,000-square-meter intelligent greenhouse under construction.

100 acres of seedling land, in the first half of the year, still bear the burden of raising strawberry seedlings, no piece of land is idle.

Thinking about it, the only place she can think of that can be used is the birthplace of the fruit and vegetable company - the red brick house built by You Lijun and his wife after they got married.

This house, Boss You originally wanted to leave her old father after retirement, when he returned to his hometown, he used the salary he earned from working outside for many years to build a magnificent small building.

Otherwise, after working in other places for many years, what will you use to prove your success?

At the moment, I regret that it is more important to build her plant factory.

The old man personally called the turtle son and informed him that his house was going to be demolished to grow vegetables, and You Lijun was almost like thunder.

"Ahh What kind of vegetables are going to be planted to the point of demolishing the house? Didn't You Rui say that she used the living room at home to start a company? It's only been a few years, and the company has opened a leap? I said, if she can do great things, I can fry fish for her to eat! ”

"Then you fry now, labor and management see how you are fried!" Grandpa You's patience ran out, and he only made a verbal notice and didn't give an explanation.

You Lijun thought that as long as he didn't nod, he couldn't do it.

The house built more than 20 years ago does not even have a real estate certificate.

Entrepreneurs like You Yu, who are constantly developing new agricultural products, want to build a plant factory, and all kinds of approvals are not smooth all the way.

In less than a week, all traces of the past life of the Lao You family have been completely erased.

Half a month later, a two-acre, three-storey plant factory will be built here.

Although the plant factory is not large, You Yu also commissioned technicians from the Intelligent Equipment Engineering Technology Research Center to design the hydroponic drip irrigation and temperature control system for the entire factory.

There are no windows, no lights, just rows of custom-made planting iron frames, and three or five small doors one high.

As of May 20, the promotion time of the official website mall of Pea Group is just 20 days.

The results of the background statistics show that there are a total of 30,290 registered IDs, and 18,928 people have purchased lifetime membership cards.

In the past 20 days, the sales champion in the mall has always been the intermediate second-generation tomatoes, selling a total of 280,000 catties.

Buyers from other places have praised the tomatoes they received, from the packaging to the taste of the tomatoes, and the repurchase rate is as high as 8%.

The runner-up was Xiaobeibei pumpkin, with a total of 188,000 pieces sold, and buyers from the northern, Shanghain, Guangzhou, and Shenzhen cities accounted for two-thirds.

Most of the buyers' messages are to take the little beibei pumpkin as a meal replacement, and also said that this sugar content is not fat at all, and it is very healthy.

Tadolan peppers, 5,035 catties were pre-sold, and 130,000 yuan was received in advance;

Red okra, 3,190 pounds, 85,000.

The performance of selling more than 5 million in 20 days can be regarded as exceeding the set small goal, and all the employees of the e-commerce company finally collectively breathed a sigh of relief.
