Da Si Nong: I really don’t want to farm

Chapter 115: Scarcity Makes Things Valuable (2640)

The sheep were delivered one after another.

A little more than expected.

There are more than two hundred big sheep, and most of them are ewes.

There are more than two thousand lambs.

"Boss Xu, do you want more?" Song Yun looked at Xu Yue and asked with a smile.

Chicken, he made a fortune.

Duck, he also made a fortune.

This sheep is no exception.

Even from those three cows, Song Yun earned several hundred yuan.

Boss Xu, whether I can get rich depends on you!
"Forget it!" Xu Yue said, "Let's leave it at that for now!"

"Do you need anything else?" Song Yun said, "Like pigs, cows, geese, etc."

"Boss Song's business is growing!" Xu Yue said with a smile, "Can you get some rabbits? Don't take any that are too small."

pig?
They have already fed two.

Not for selling, but for eating.

As for cows, geese and the like, Xu Yue is not considering them for the time being.

"Yes!" Song Yun nodded and said, "How much?"

"Let's start with tens of thousands." Xu Yue said lightly.

"How many?" Song Yun looked at Xu Yue in astonishment and said, "Tens of thousands!"

"A lot?" Xu Yue smiled and looked at Song Yun. Seeing him nod subconsciously, he continued, "Take your time. I'm not in a hurry. I plan to raise them on the newly rented hilltop. With four or five hundred acres of land, it should be easy to raise tens of thousands of rabbits."

That hill can definitely accommodate more than tens of thousands of rabbits, but having tens of thousands of rabbits come at once may not be a good thing.

Even if it is free-range.

After all, the grass on that hilltop hasn't grown yet.

How to feed it may become a problem.

"No rush!" Song Yun nodded and said, "You want a half-grown rabbit? How about a full-grown rabbit?"

"Forget about the big rabbits." Xu Yue said, "There should be a lot of people raising rabbits here, right?"

"It's quite a lot." Song Yun nodded and said, "However, if we want to collect tens of thousands of them just by ourselves, that's definitely impossible."

"It's still the same old rule. The quality must be good." Xu Yue said, "Come in batches, and we'll settle the bill for each batch."

"it is good!"

Song Yun nodded.

He liked doing business with Xu Yue. Besides making money, the most important thing was that Xu Yue settled the bills quickly.

Xu Yue was relieved when the rabbit matter was handed over to Song Yun.

It doesn't matter if it takes longer.

The more than 100 acres of newly rented land were also planted with vegetables.

It will take time to prove whether the cultivated Hericium erinaceus and Morels can be successful.

Xu Yue would go there to check it out every day.

After finishing the work on the newly rented hill and land, Xu Yue suddenly had some free time.

The newly hired people gradually became familiar with the team, and everyone was very active, so there was no need for supervision at all.

There are no cunning people, but they are all people who cannot sit still.

"Let's go to the peach orchard." Xu Yue said to Zhang Ruoxi, "I think the peaches are almost ripe."

"it is good!"

Zhang Ruoxi also became interested when she heard it.

The two of them then went to Taoyuan.

The peaches are indeed almost ripe.

Or it can be eaten now, because the bottom of the peach has turned red.

"This peach is quite big!"

Zhang Ruoxi was a little surprised. She felt that these peaches seemed to weigh more than half a pound each.

In terms of appearance, it is absolutely excellent.

As for the taste
"Yes, Not Bad!"

Xu Yue then picked another one, wiped it on his clothes, and handed it to Zhang Ruoxi.

"Mmm, delicious! Really delicious!"

Zhang Ruoxi didn't hesitate and started eating without even thinking about washing or peeling the fruit.

"How much do you think one costs?" Xu Yue asked with a smile.

"How much is one?" Zhang Ruoxi looked at Xu Yue and said, "Are you selling them by the piece?" "Selling them by the kilogram would be an insult to these peaches," Xu Yue said. "This peach is definitely better than any other peach on the market."

Zhang Ruoxi did not deny this.

She could eat many expensive peaches, but none of them were as delicious as these.

"What price? You're asking the wrong person," Zhang Ruoxi said. "I don't understand the market. If you want to set a price, ask someone who knows!"

"Then I'll call Huang Liang." Xu Yue nodded.

Huang Liang is the current head of Taoyuan Agricultural Products Market.

He used to work in a large agricultural trade company. He was very capable and was highly valued by his superiors.

Yang Rui and Shen Jianjun were recruited by a headhunting company.

Huang Liang was reluctant to come at first, after all, there was still room for advancement in his original company. However, after trying Xu Yue's vegetables, he immediately agreed.

He is optimistic about the company's potential.

Huang Liang is very busy now.

The company has just been established, so there are naturally a lot of things to do.

Fortunately, he poached experienced people from his previous company, otherwise he would be even busier.

However, the company doesn't have much work to do right now, so there's time to sort things out slowly.

He came here immediately after receiving Xu Yue's call.

"Try it!"

Xu Yue handed a peach to Huang Liang.

"Isn't this fully mature yet?"

Huang Liang took the peach, looked at it, said something and took a bite, his eyes suddenly lit up.

The peach juice overflows and the sweet fragrance fills the mouth, and the taste is indescribably satisfying.

Huang Liang has eaten many peaches, but he has never eaten one as delicious as this one.

This isn't fully mature yet!

Wouldn't it taste better if it were fully ripe?
"How much do you think one of these peaches should cost?" Xu Yue asked.

"how?"

Huang Liang did not answer, but asked back.

If the quantity is large, the price cannot be set too high.

Things are rare.

This applies to everything.

"Let's go to Taoyuan and take a look!" Xu Yue said, "I estimate there are hundreds of thousands of kilograms."

"How many?"

Huang Liang was a little surprised.

This peach is quite big, probably weighing half a pound.

Hundreds of thousands of pounds means there are tens or even millions of them.

"Old peach tree! An old peach tree can still produce peaches of this quality!"

When Huang Liang arrived in Taoyuan and saw what was happening, he was even more shocked.

It's not just because the old peach tree is bearing fruit, but also because each fruit weighs over half a pound.

How many peaches are in half a pound?
Not uncommon.

But all of them are so big, I have never heard of them.

Simply incredible.

"In the past, there were only a few fruits, and they tasted sour and astringent," Xu Yue said. "I contracted them and spent a lot of money to cultivate them."

Huang Liang had no doubts about it, as the peach tree's fruit-bearing period was only that long.

And he could tell at a glance that the peach tree was already past its prime.

If you want an old peach tree to produce peaches of this quality, you will definitely have to spend a lot of money.

"How old is the peach tree?"

Huang Liang asked casually, but he was shocked in his heart.

Is it really possible for humans to make old peach trees bear fruit with such good quality?
The key is whether it is necessary?
I think the cost would be lower if I rented a new hill and planted new peach trees, right?

"More than 30 years ago," Xu Yue said. "This peach orchard existed before I was even born. This is also the origin of Taoyuan Village."

"Great!"

Huang Liang couldn't help but sigh.

He walked around the dozens of acres of peach orchard and fell into deep thought.

"Mr. Xu, that's too much! Scarcity makes things valuable. If there were only tens of thousands of pounds, I'd be confident I could sell them at a hundred each. But these are hundreds of thousands of pounds. Selling them at a high price is difficult! There's also another problem: our company has just been established."
