Chapter 34 Mushrooms hurt farmers
Mushroom cultivation began in the village. Many people were worried about any problems, so Zhao Shucheng's family, who had planted mushrooms before, became their targets for help.
Although there are technicians sent by Professor Ling, their number is too small. After helping with mushrooms, they go to other places to help.
"Yongfu, what's the trick to raise mushrooms? You can't hide it from your uncle. In terms of relationships, it's my uncle who has not yet produced five slaughter."
"Uncle Dayou, the upper-grade Agaricus bisporus is also half a jar of water. However, I have statistics on some of the data on farmed mushrooms. I originally wanted to give it to the villagers. In this way, you can look back and take a look. In addition, Shuihua is the student that Professor Ling values. Just ask her if you have any questions."
Although Zhao Shucheng said this, in order to make the villagers more familiar with the operation of growing mushrooms, he directly took some people who had finished sowing to practice in their greenhouses, so that they could become more familiar with various operations. He even printed out many points of the tables he had previously counted, one by one, so that they could know how to raise mushrooms as long as they saw the table, and there would be no technical problems.
Many people attach great importance to this form, and put it directly in the house or even hide it so that their children will not be destroyed. The night school run by Zhao Shucheng is still at the beginning of school, and villagers are asking about mushrooms these days because of the matter of growing mushrooms.
Ling Yinong didn’t have time to give lectures, but his apprentice Xiao Huang took turns to teach everyone because he was helping in the village.
Some villagers asked questions with Zhao Shucheng's form. After seeing it, Xiao Huang looked carefully and found that there was no problem. Instead, it was very helpful for the villagers' mushroom planting.
"I saw this table, which is very detailed. It is very clear about what to do on that day, how much temperature, how much humidity, and the fertilizer ratio. You can fully breed according to this table, and there will be no problems."
"By the way, who made this form? This is not something that ordinary people can do, and it will be very helpful to everyone."
"This is Yongfufa, technician Huang, tell the Russians the specific content. We don't know many words in these tables."
"Okay, I'll read it to everyone, just be familiar with all kinds of data."
Time passed quickly. Although the villagers were anxious to think that mushrooms would grow early, they could not violate the laws of nature. Instead, they watched Zhao Shucheng and horses shouting water to make money every day, and they were all worried.
Two months later, the mushrooms in Jintan Village began to produce mushrooms one after another. When the first batch was first sold, many people sold the same price as those in Zhao Shucheng's family, all of which cost three yuan.
Li Dayou's mushrooms also have mushrooms. He is a farming expert. Although he sometimes seems very anxious, he is very careful when it comes to farming. His mushrooms are much better than those in other people's houses in the village. Not only are they evenly sized, but they rarely have any distortions even when picking them.
"Yongfu, come and see how the mushrooms in my house are like?"
"Uncle Dayou, you are a good player in growing mushrooms. Few people can compare to this mushroom."
"That's right, you don't even look at who E is. When it comes to growing crops, not many people in Jintan Village can compare to me. Ma shouted to Shui all day long and said E was lazy, but his crops were not as good as E family's."
Li Dayou couldn't help but feel a little proud. He had seen the mushrooms in the village, but most of them were not as good as him. Even if he had better than him, he was not as good as his own.
"Yongfu, do you think you can buy three mushrooms from Uncle's house?"
"Uncle Dayou, there are a lot of mushrooms in the village now. Our county can't digest so much. The price is definitely not three yuan, and it's still no problem if it's more than two yuan."
"Why can't you sell it for three yuan? Why is such a good mushroom lower than other people's prices?"
"Uncle, I said before that all things are expensive because of scarcity. Now not only the mushrooms in our village have produced mushrooms, but other villages have produced mushrooms, so the price will definitely drop. And the mushrooms at home are also sold at a lower price. If you don't sell them now, the price will be lower in the future."
Li Dayou still didn't believe it. He felt that as long as he sold mushrooms, he would definitely be sold for three yuan. Unfortunately, he didn't understand the situation at all. The mushrooms around the county town have long been saturated, and the nearby county towns are used to eating local aleur mushrooms, Agaricus, Helan Mountain purple mushrooms, etc., so he didn't have much interest in Agaricus bisporus at all, and many people don't know how to eat Agaricus bisporus.
Although he took the mushrooms to the county town, he found that he could not sell a few kilograms at all. Instead, the shipping costs he paid for were more than the money he sold mushrooms.
At first he felt that the problem was not a big deal, but when the mushrooms in the greenhouse of everyone in the village started to fall, the price began to fall.
From the beginning of three yuan to the later three yuan, then two yuan, two yuan, one yuan, eight yuan, and one yuan.
Although the people in the village were a little unacceptable to such a price, Zhao Shucheng had already told them about this price before growing mushrooms. Now he is not very moved, as long as he can sell it.
Zhao Shucheng knew that the time was almost over, so he started to ask his sales staff to start purchasing mushrooms, but the price was very low, most of which were between one dollar and one dollar.
Although Li Dayou sold part of the mushrooms last time, he had been insisting on the price of three yuan and didn't sell much at all. The rest were stored at home, showing signs of deterioration.
He pulled the mushrooms to the people who collected the mushrooms, but when they saw that the mushrooms began to deteriorate, they did not collect them at all. Instead, they asked Li Dayou to deal with them quickly, otherwise they would be blind.
Li Dayou was also lucky and went around nearby acquisition points in one day, but no one bought them. Instead, the mushrooms eventually became even worse because they were in the sun for a long time.
"Yongfu, the price of this mushroom has dropped to this point, don't you feel sorry for it?"
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Zhao Shucheng saw that it was Li Dayou and said directly: "Well, I knew this situation for a long time. The price was so high at the beginning, because there were very few mushrooms. Now there are so many, we can't digest them immediately. I calculated that the mushroom production in the nearby villages is 80,000 kilograms of mushrooms a day in Yuquanying. There are only a few people in our county, and each household eats one kilogram, and the whole county can eat it."
"But Uncle Dayou, do you think every household can eat mushrooms? So the price reduction is certain. The cost was calculated at the beginning. As long as the mushrooms are one pound and one dollar, we will make a profit. The current situation is that there are few people who collect mushrooms, but there are many mushrooms, so we can only cash out as soon as possible."
Li Dayou was still reluctant to sell mushrooms so cheaply. Although he knew that Zhao Shucheng was right, he still wanted to sell them at a high price, so he decided to defeat Ling Yinong, hoping that the other party would help solve the problem of mushroom sales.
Shuihua also knew about the changes in the price of mushrooms, and asked worriedly: "Yongfu, do you really need such a low price?"
"This is impossible. The price of one yuan and five is the highest. I have calculated that it is good to buy it from us and ship it to other places. The buyer can give it one yuan and five. However, most of them will not reach this price, it should be around one yuan. After all, they also have to make money."
"Besides, it's a question whether the mushroom harvester can have such a large purchase volume. Now the mushroom growers in this county are not just our Jintan Village. There are hundreds of households around tens of miles and eight villages. Each household has 400 kilograms, and each household is 100,000 kilograms per day. This thing is not food, and it cannot be stored for a long time. If the mushrooms cannot be sold, they can only rot in baskets, which is even less cost-effective."
Shuhua still felt something was wrong and said, "But you can't make the price so low? Our purchase price is only 1.5 to 1 yuan, which is half or even two-thirds lower than before. Can the people in the village agree?"
"What can't be agreed with? When they mobilized them to grow mushrooms, they said that when the mushrooms are on the market in large quantities, the price may be around one dollar. Since they could accept it at that time, what can't be accepted now?"
"Besides, they can't accept it anymore. Not only are the mushrooms in our village listed, but other villages also produce mushrooms, and even villages have begun to build greenhouses and grow mushrooms. The Agaricus bisporus has grown a lot. Once it becomes a large scale, it is not only a county town, or even Yinchuan can satisfy it, and it must be promoted outward. At this stage, if they cannot sell the mushrooms in time, they can only let them rot in the ground."
"But you don't have to worry, I know in my heart. Why our family builds cold storage and processing plants just to provide the village with the bottom line. You can't expect them to earn much money. As long as they can pay the loan, they will make net profits. Besides, I will also calculate the accounts for them. As long as they can spend about one dollar per pound, they will not lose money, and there are even some profits. If they can get one yuan and five yuan, this will be huge profits."
Although Shuihua knew that what Zhao Shucheng said made sense, he felt uncomfortable when he saw the villagers worrying so much.
Chen Jinshan also knew that there were problems with mushroom sales. No one paid attention to it when reporting it before, so now he had to find a way to solve the problem.
Ling Yinong also found a way to help, contact sales channels from other places, and wanted to sell Agaricus bisporus outside the province or even coastal cities. However, he was just a scientific researcher before, and he didn't understand any sales matters at all, and was a little confused for a while.
Unfortunately, it takes time to solve the problem of sales, but now the time is also the time. If Agaricus bisporus cannot be stored in the cold storage, it can only be stored outside for three days. After three days, it will directly rot and deteriorate and cannot be eaten at all. In addition, not everyone knows the processing of Agaricus bisporus now. It is better to make fresh mushrooms artificial, so we can only wait for people to collect mushrooms.
