food crisis [end times]

Regardless of the fact that the rich businessman is not tall and looks just like that, both his sons and daughters look good.The daughter is even better.

Xiang Luo was sized up by the rich businessman's daughter, and he didn't like it very much. He just nodded and turned his head away from her.

When I arrived at the village committee, I first looked through the window at the small factory that made mushroom bags.

The rich businessman looked at their assembly line work and nodded: "It's pretty decent! It's just that there are fewer people, which is normal. I saw that the empty houses in your village have been demolished, and there is not much room for the site. "

Zhou Zhenhua glanced at Xiang Luo, then smiled and said: "This is only for now. We have arranged to continue burning bricks, and then build after the burning. We have already planned to expand, and the production speed of bacteria bags will definitely increase in the future. Don't worry."

These words seem to be reassuring the wealthy businessman about the production problem, but they are actually implying that he does not need to intervene in this matter.

In the past few days, the village has been talking about this matter every day, discussing and discussing, and they all feel that the best role of rich businessmen in the village is to help sell mushroom bags.More absolutely can not let him intervene.Otherwise, who knows how much profit they will take away.

Businessmen are profit-seeking, coupled with the blessing of capital, who knows what they will do.

The smile on the rich merchant's face remained unchanged, but he paused for two seconds and looked at Xiang Luo.

Xiang Luo said with a smile: "It must be bigger and stronger. Otherwise, the longer the fungus bag is, the less valuable it will be. The best way is to increase production as soon as possible and use the quantity to occupy the market share, so as to accumulate more. There are thousands of people in this village. People have to be fed, and traditional methods will definitely not work.”

"It makes sense! That's how it should be! If you have any difficulties, feel free to tell us. Our current conditions are better than yours, and we can count as helping each other." After the rich businessman finished speaking, he walked into the office.

There were many people standing in the office, so the chairs were removed first.Wealthy businessmen are especially enthusiastic about Xiang Luo, and they like to take Xiang Luo with them when they say anything.

Xiang Luo didn't talk much from the beginning to the end, giving the impression that he was very shy.

After talking for a while, the wealthy businessman changed his style and said: "How else can I say that there is no shortage of capable people in this world. My family is relying on its wealth, otherwise it must not be as good as you. This time I will also After thinking about it, we still have to do business, so I will keep my two sons and daughters to exercise and learn from you."

The wealthy businessman looked at Xiang Luo with a smile on his face.

Xiang Luo's heart was full of alarm bells, he just shook his head and said, "What is there to learn from this? It's just my luck!"

"If others give you such good luck, they won't be able to catch it," the rich businessman called his daughter Yuebei, "Come to Yuebei, you will have to take care of her in the future. You will be called brother from now on! Your child's surname is Xiang, right?" Your name is Brother Xiang!"

The girl named Yuebei was obviously not very willing, but she still nodded to Xiang Luo very politely, and called Brother Xiang with a smile.

Xiang Luo just nodded, but didn't answer.

The rich businessman didn't feel embarrassed but continued: "We will cooperate more in the future for mutual benefit. You have fungus bags, and I have connections. I will help you sell them. But I opened a supermarket and want to build a brand If possible, it would be great if you can customize a batch for us in the future. Of course, if you find it troublesome, it would be better for me to invest and build a small factory to make it. Don’t worry, I won’t steal your business. .”

Xiang Luo is actually not good at games between businessmen, but fortunately, after spending a long time with Zhu Yan, he can somewhat understand the subtext of what he said.

Xiang Luo only said: "What's the trouble? When we built the factory, we just allocated a production line for you. It's not a trouble. Speaking of brand, we also want to build a brand. It's just that If you study, there is really nothing to learn. The fungus bag is very simple. I think you can also master the skills of making the fungus bag. The difficulty is the infection rate of the fungus bag. This is not difficult to solve. If there is any, there will be no It's nothing else. On the contrary, the conditions in the countryside are not very good, and the possibility of staying here is more likely to suffer. I hope you will think about it more."

"It's a blessing for young people to suffer, and it's a good thing to exercise more." The wealthy businessman didn't directly respond to Xiang Luo's warning.

The smile on Xiang Luo's face restrained a little: "I think you misunderstood me. It's not that people will be bullied when they come here, but that they must pay something when they come here. There are so many people in our village, how many people do you have?" Will do something to the village at least. Thank you for coming to help sell mushroom bags. But if all you want to do is to sell mushroom bags, I think you leave two or three people here to do the handover That's enough. No more is necessary. After all, our business exchanges are limited to this."

A wealthy businessman plays Tai Chi, but Xiang Luo doesn't have the time to spare, so he opened his mouth to hit the vital point directly.

Zhou Zhenhua was terrified when he heard it, but he also admired the courage of Xiang Luo's words.

He opened his mouth to help Xiang Luo cover up: "This young man doesn't know how to speak properly. Don't be fooled, he has no malicious intentions."

This is the final word. What Xiang Luo said was the decision of their village.

The rich businessman didn't reply in a hurry, but squinted his eyes at Xiang Luo, not knowing what he was thinking.

Then he nodded again: "I just said that this kid is good and has courage! This is a young man! That's right, if I only buy fungus bags, I really shouldn't get involved too much. After all, there is only so little food, and you earn it yourself Points are not enough."

Xiang Luo raised his eyebrows, and actually thought of it.If a wealthy businessman wanted to establish a connection with this village, he would definitely make multiple preparations.

But that's not important, the main reason why Xiang Luo said so much is to take the initiative, at least not let the rich businessman bring the rhythm.Otherwise, if you are led by the nose, any benefits you will gain in the future will have to go through human hands.

That would be worth the loss.

The rich merchant said again: "Of course the fungus bag is important, but in my heart, the duck is more important."

In the future, bacteria packs will be profitable only by increasing their volume, which is relatively basic.Ducks are fortunes for a long time to come.

Xiang Luo said, "Do you want to cooperate in raising ducks?"

The rich businessman nodded: "Not bad."

Xiang Luo shook his head: "I will at least lay it in the village first. I haven't thought about it in the outer villages yet."

"What if I trade something?" asked the rich businessman.

Xiang Luo only said: "That depends on what your bargaining chip is."

The rich merchant's eyes narrowed slightly, and he smiled very sophisticatedly: "What if it's sterile planting?"

Xiang Luo was startled, and looked at the rich merchant, who was still smiling.

planted?

What an extravagant word.Vegetables have become a rare luxury ever since superbugs swept the world.Xiang Luo has soilless cultivation facilities at home, but after trying to use them, they were unable to use them due to super mold pollution.

Seeing the change in Xiang Luo's gaze, the wealthy businessman smiled even more satisfied, and asked, "How is it? Is this bargaining chip okay?"

Currently, the value of vegetables and meat is about the same, and the price of vegetables may even be a little higher.After all, as long as animals are properly raised, they don't eat moldy food, and they don't come into contact with infected animals, they can be raised well.

But the growing conditions of vegetables will be quite harsh.The government has organized planting before.However, it was suspended due to the high infection rate.Later, because people in this village concentrated on cultivating the fungus bag, even if the official continued later, they didn't ask people in this village to participate together.

So to this day, people in the village know nothing about the development of aseptic planting outside, including Xiang Luo.

Xiang Luo thinks about the value of vegetables, and the possibility of large-scale planting.But other people in the village couldn't bear it anymore.

Zhou Zhenhua hurriedly asked: "Are you serious? Just grow vegetables? What can you grow?"

The wealthy businessman said with a smile: "Naturally, everything can be hit. Soilless cultivation is used in a sterile environment. Moreover, a device has been put into production in the city next door. It can be operated outside the device through gloves, and the whole process is sterile. It will not cause pollution. I have successfully grown a batch of spinach over there, and I brought some back here. But the amount is not large, so only a few people can taste it. Xiaoxiang, I will prepare it for you A portion came out, and you happen to have eggs at home, so it’s just right for you to make spinach egg drop soup.”

It's a good move to turn against the customer.People in the village haven't eaten green food for a long time, and long-term lack of green food will cause health problems. Although there is gold vitamin given by the government, people's desire for vegetables is quite strong.

"Then how many do you have?" Zhou Zhenhua asked hastily!

The wealthy businessman thinks about it: "We don't get much, but we can distribute ten of them first. This operation is actually very easy. If we develop the production line in the future, ten or even twenty can be serialized together. Several people work together. It can grow a lot of things.”

Xiang Luodao: "That is to say, as long as the equipment is sufficient, it doesn't matter how much you plant."

The rich merchant nodded, and said, "But this is also a theory. After all, there are not many seeds stored now. During the chaos before, many seed merchants were looted, and many people robbed the seeds and cooked them at home. Some of them are in bulk. The seeds have become moldy due to improper storage. There are not many seeds left, and the price is even more expensive. Even in my hands, there are not many left."

In other words, the planting equipment is free, and the seeds are absolutely limited or expensive.

Xiang Luo only said: "At least at the moment, yours can indeed be put together with the duck in my hand. But I hope you can also be more considerate of our petty mind."

"You said."

"If you want to sell and buy from me conveniently, I can only provide slaughtered male ducks and female ducks that can be ordered."

Fu Shang said something about the seeds of vegetables, and Xiang Luo also used duck "seeds" to retaliate.

If there are female ducks but no live male ducks, the number of ducks and egg production must be controlled by Xiang Luo all the time.

During the two rounds of back and forth between the two, the wealthy businessman appreciated Xiang Luo even more.

Xiang Luo originally thought that the wealthy businessman would continue to fight for it, but he didn't expect the wealthy businessman to smile very generously: "Then I'll listen to you."

Xiang Luo was stunned, thought about it, and emphasized: "I'm talking about the future, I can't produce such a duck now."

The rich businessman only smiled and said: "I know, I will wait for you to develop slowly. Young people. What you need most is time to develop well. There is a saying that is good, don't bully the young and poor, maybe after a few years, I will still rely on You take care of it."

"You're being too polite." Xiang Luo glanced at Zhou Zhenhua, and Zhou Zhenhua finally calmed down. Listening to the conversation between the two, he could only speak a little as a middleman.

"That's good! We are also mutually beneficial."

The wealthy businessman smiled and said, "It's natural, everyone can make money together."

The scene was peaceful, but Xiang Luo just wanted to stay away from this old fox.

In fact, Xiang Luo prefers simplicity.He opened a shop here and sold the fungus bags.Then make money and continue to make others bigger and bigger.

But this idea is obviously unrealistic.The higher you stand, the farther you can see, and the farther you can see.There are naturally more things encountered.The matter of the rich businessman must be over anyway.

After saying this, the rich merchant followed everyone to Xiang Luo's house to see the ducks.

Just standing outside the yard, looking up at the thick gate with a bit of peeling paint, and the high wall two or three meters high, I couldn't help asking: "Is this built recently?"

"It was there a few years ago," Xiang Luo said casually, "My family lives in a remote place. My mother was timid when she was alive, so she built the wall higher so that it would not be easy for people to climb in. I didn't expect to encounter this world. The wall really blocks a lot of monsters."

The wealthy businessman followed Xiang Luo into the courtyard, looked left and right, saw the garage, and asked with a smile, "Do you have a car?"

"Well, there is one, a gift from my buddy." Xiang Luo said vaguely.

I don't know who followed suit: "That car is so handsome, it seems that the village has never seen a better one! I remember it is a ** brand."

Xiang Luo glanced back, the man saw that Xiang Luo's eyes were not friendly, and he understood that he had slipped his words, so he hurriedly backed away and disappeared into the crowd.

These words attracted the attention of the wealthy businessman. He looked at Xiang Luo, and couldn't hide his curiosity: "Then this car is not cheap. Your friend gave it to you?"

"I saved someone. His family had money. I didn't want the money, so I gave him a car. I thought it was an ordinary car, but I didn't expect it to be so valuable. Later, I wanted to send it back but didn't contact anyone, so I drove it. .”

This statement is also half-truth, this car was indeed given by Zhu Yan in the name of saving his life.It's just that the local tyrant delivering the car is at home right now.

How naive would a wealthy businessman be if he believed this?It's just that Xiang Luo refused to say, and only gave such an answer, no matter whether it is true or not, the rich businessman will only take it as true.

"That's because you have a good heart, and you deserve to be thanked."

Xiang Luo rubbed his nose, and said modestly, "I just don't think I deserve such a precious gift. But this car is indeed used in this world."

Continuing to walk inside, Xiang Luo went to open the door, only to see An Wei in the room.

Anwei had already caught a few ducklings and put them in a cardboard box for viewing, when he saw people stand up.

Xiang Luo didn't see Zhu Yan, so he looked left and right, and An Wei said, "Zhu Yan has a cold, maybe he ate too much cold food, so he went to the west room to lie down for a while. Just keep your voice down, don't be too restrictive."

Someone came in, and the ducklings in the box immediately called out.These ducklings are already in the third batch. The first batch was already big, and the second batch is not yet full moon. The third batch of ducklings, which have just been hatched for two or three days, are still cute.

The cute little duck easily grabbed everyone's attention, and a group of people gathered around the cardboard box to watch.These little guys are so gratifying to look at, the rich businessman just feels that he can't breathe easily.

"When I was young, I went to my grandma's house and saw such a big duckling. At that time, I wanted to take home two ducks, but my mother just didn't agree. Can this one be touched?"

Xiang Luo stretched out his hand to fiddle with the ducks, found the most energetic one, picked it up and handed it over.

The rich businessman is busy holding the duckling in both hands.The little duck raised its head and called twice, then tilted its head to look at the rich businessman.

This state is really cute and criminal, the rich businessman just felt that he didn't dare to breathe hard, he hurriedly looked around and saw his daughter's eyes glowing, so he gave the duck in his hand to Yuebei.

Yuebei's heart almost melted while holding the duck, and he stretched out his hand to touch the top of the duck's head, and the duckling rubbed its beak against her fingers.

"It's so cute." Yuebei looked at the rich businessman.Willing to buy it.

The rich merchant smiled and said: "If you like it, come and take a look, and learn more from your Brother Xiang by the way. If you can really raise these little guys, our family will rely on you to eat meat in the future." gone."

Hearing this, the smile on Yuebei's face softened a bit, and he only answered without saying anything.

Xiang Luo would be a fool if he still couldn't figure it out at this time.

"It's not difficult. It's just a regular and quantitative feeding. Take time to let them bask in the sun, and the rest will be fine." Xiang Luo looked at Yuebei and said, "There are three young men in my family. A girl. She must be bored when she's young and has no one to play with."

The rich businessman seemed to have never heard of it: "Then let their brothers and sisters come over together in the future."

Then, without giving Xiang Luo any chance to refuse, he continued: "How many ducks do you have, and how long do you think it will take to multiply?"

Xiang Luo said: "At least it will be next year. There will be ducks laying eggs one after another in autumn and winter this year, and it will take next year for it to scale up."

"That's it, I'm not in a hurry." The rich businessman looked thoughtfully at the duckling in his daughter's hand.

Xiang Luo said with a smile: "If you like it, I can give you two for fun."

Anyway, it is a duckling, and it will have to wait at least next year to breed.Even if they start breeding at that time, Xiang Luo's sales will have opened up.

This kind of business is better to come early than to come by coincidence.Open up the market earlier, even if someone comes to share a piece of the pie in the future, the initiative is still in your own hands.

"Two little ducks?" the rich businessman joked.

"You can pick whatever you want," Xiang Luo said.

The rich businessman shook his head: "It's not easy for you to raise two little guys. I can't compete with you. Besides, Yuebei likes this one. She can come to see you and don't stop her."

Xiang Luo narrowed his eyes slightly, and said in a very relaxed tone: "Actually, I don't agree with your son coming here often."

The rich businessman was startled: "How do you say that?"

"Don't get me wrong, I'm not here for you," Xiang Luo pointed to himself, "I'm gay, if I have any unreasonable thoughts about your son, or spoil him, how can I be worthy of you?" take care of."

As soon as this remark came out, the rich businessman fell silent.

Yuebei put the duck back, and urged the rich businessman: "Dad! My brother should be busy."

But the rich businessman said with a smile: "This is normal. I heard that many young men like men before. Isn't this more reassuring? My daughter is not afraid of being abducted when she comes here."
