Special chefs and gourmets are needed to guide farmers with their own tongues, food knowledge and experience.

The only requirement for this kind of food is delicious, and it would be better if the yield can be taken into account.

However, in the face of the conflict between yield and deliciousness, deliciousness is the priority! "The main customers of Jixing Chinese cabbage and Jixing tomatoes are in Xuqiu Village." Yishihui said with a smile, "Because the vegetables are high-end, the price is not high. Cheap.

The wholesale price of ordinary Chinese cabbage market is 100 yen- -kg, but the supply channel of Jihuang Chinese cabbage is already 150 yen- -kg, and Jixing tomatoes can be sold for 4508 yuan- -kg. Basically, it can be This is more than 50% more expensive than the market price. Moreover, due to the direct supply to slow halls, the profit is far more cost-effective than selling to vegetable wholesale markets and supermarkets. 99% of Japan’s agriculture, animal husbandry and fishery industries have joined the Agricultural Cooperative .

Because the Agricultural Cooperative is semi-official and semi-private, and has almost monopolized every aspect of Japanese agricultural production, fish, sales and even credit.

Although less than 8% of the Japanese farmer population, almost all of them are members of the Agricultural Association.

This has led to the fact that although the Agricultural Association is not a so-called political party, any political force dare not underestimate the Agricultural Association.

The end of offending the Agricultural Association is to lose almost 8% of the votes. Unless even B% of the votes are negligible, no one dares to ignore the Agricultural Association.

Ballot politics has led to a tighter organization comparable to government agencies, more formal and organized than any political party, and has penetrated into all rural areas of Japan.

As far as loans are concerned, Japanese farmers hardly need to find a bank, and the loan interest rate of the Agricultural Cooperative Association is surprisingly low, almost as if no interest is required. In addition, various agricultural knowledge training and services are also very thoughtful.

Under the condition that various services are in place, normally the Agricultural Cooperative will compete with any political force in Japan, and the farmers will fall on one side, so there is no need to think about standing on the side of the Agricultural Cooperative.

In many cases, the Japanese government and political parties have nothing to do with the Agricultural Cooperative.

Many policies, even the interference of the Broken Agricultural Association, had to compromise and back down.

It can be seen how powerful the Agricultural Cooperative is in Japan.

Of course, some policies of the Agricultural Association are not all beneficial to farmers. For example, although the Agricultural Association is not a planned economy, almost all farmers rely on the Agricultural Association's procurement share. Only after the Agricultural Association purchases agricultural products will they enter the market retail channel. Others It is almost impossible for market vendors to go to the countryside to receive goods. Therefore, under normal circumstances, Japanese farmers can only rely on the guidance of the Agricultural Cooperative for output and sales. However, the procurement and sales plans formulated by the Agricultural Cooperative for the market, most of the time , are much lower than the output of food halberds. This also leads to a lot of agricultural products, because they exceed the purchase plan of the agricultural association, so i people can only rot in the fields.

...... Can the Agricultural Association be bypassed? This question... Liu Xing has also investigated.

In fact, it is possible, but... the Japanese Agricultural Cooperative is the largest agricultural organization to bypass the Agricultural Cooperative to build its own channels, and the cost and energy are actually not cost-effective. Yu's output will rot in the fields, and most farmers still haven't figured out a way to find a way to sell the output.

The main reason is--in fact, as the rural population in Japan is getting smaller and smaller, in essence, the per capita income of Japanese farmers far exceeds that of Japanese citizens. In the case of the Meowpas family, working part-time means that they refuse to work part-time Yes, there is a large area of ​​paddy fields or even a large area of ​​hills, mountains, and fields. The average per capita is hundreds of acres of land. The poorest is actually every field in the village. For example-- Kaga Shanfeng is very poor, because, Her family is special, her parents died early.

Grandma brought her up, and grandma was originally an outsider, who had no land in the village and relied on opening a small shop to make a living.

A few decades ago, Japan's rural population was several times higher than it is now, so, coupled with the continuous flow of rural population into cities.

It seems that more than 92% of the population has been gathered in Japanese cities at present.

Therefore, the business of this kind of grocery store that depends on the consumption of local farmers is actually only slightly stronger than sitting and eating. "Because these two kinds of vegetables are almost only grown in our village, so the market has always been in short supply.

Not only local restaurants, there are two high-end restaurants in Tokyo that are long-term customers of our village.

"Thanks to the farmers in Xuqiu Village, they can plant in strict accordance with my requirements. Otherwise, even if the seed variety is improved, if the planting process is too perfunctory, it will not be able to produce good food." Yishihui said with a smile, "In the future, although The patent has been transferred to Liu Sang, and Liu Sang will help continue to improve and maintain the taste.

No, I'll come and have a look if I'm free.

Liu Xing said with a smile: 'Of course! Moreover, I am not only interested in patent fees, but also in further cooperation.

For example, I am going to open an Internet gourmet website. I originally planned to order food online mainly for prepared gourmet food.

However, after thinking about it carefully, in addition to this business, fresh vegetables from the countryside can be directly supplied to customers in the market! "In that case... the cost should be more expensive!" Yishihui frowned. Liu Xing thought for a while Said: "If, the scope is limited to Tokyo - a city.

Then, the transportation only needs to be delivered to the door after the place of production arrives in Tokyo. The real cost is not necessarily more expensive than the vegetable market and supermarket. However, online shopping gives the order to the logistics express, while the supermarket and food market. The profit of the intermediary has been given to layers of business chains.

The online website I am going to open is going to provide zero-cost services to merchants.

Profit is not considered for the time being, I just want to do one thing, and I can buy delicious food, or various ingredients and condiments conveniently and quickly on the website! Meals are something that everyone needs, but there are always some people, more than 0 Otaku, not willing to go out to shop.

Therefore, providing door-to-door delivery service actually has a very huge market demand space!

Later, in China’s fresh food e-commerce market, the cost was very high and it was difficult to make money. The profits of many fresh food e-commerce companies could not be compared with those of vegetable markets.

The main reason is that China’s population is scattered in several cities, which brings about the high cost of fresh food logistics. Japan’s transportation infrastructure is not bad, and its population is concentrated in a few cities.

Simply put, if you only do business in Tokyo, in fact, it is equivalent to doing business in half of the Japanese market.

Other local markets in Japan are small and fragmented, very expensive and very thin margins.

If we only consider cost and profit, we might as well only focus on the Tokyo market.

Cabbage field.

The farmers in the village marked a batch of Chinese cabbage that had been initially selected for Liu Xing and others to taste.

This kind of selection of the best and the selection of delicious varieties, if ordinary farmers try to eat them, the effect is not very great.

At least a bronze tongue-level chef is needed to have fruit.

"There are about 10 vegetables here, and we need to select the ones that meet the standard among the 10." Yisehui explained, "Select the delicious variety that is one level above the ordinary vegetable varieties.

For example, such as the one I chose! Try it, it can meet this standard when eaten raw, the taste of lettuce is always light, with a hint of fruit-like sweetness.

"En!" Liu Xing tore off a piece of vegetable leaf, washed it with water, and ordered it to taste. "Quality D-grade Jixing Chinese cabbage is an improved variety of ordinary cabbage. The improver Yisehui paid a total of 5 years for it." , a little bit of success, with progressive optimization capabilities." While Liu Xing tasted it, he also let the system identify it simultaneously.

The data that surprised Liu Xing were quickly obtained.

Level! Moreover, it can be further improved, which proves that the foundation of this Chinese cabbage variety itself is quite good, so there will be room for further improvement.

Moreover, the D-grade itself is not easy! Generally, the vegetables grown in the farm are selected from the dry, and only the D-grade can be produced! And the stable cultivation of D-grade varieties is actually a dish, which has been laid down for cooking from the field. Extremely high foundation.

For example, general chefs cook with ∈ grade vegetables, and no matter how good their cooking skills are, they will be hindered by the quality of vegetables.
