MTL - A Day In a Japanese Fishing Village-Chapter 706 transgenic rice
In the past two years, Shuichi Minano's Minami Consortium has undergone a lot of changes. The first is the continuous development of the previously enclosed land. The real estate industry is already in the top three positions in the country. As for Nanye Automobile, it has always been the number one sales in the world!
It is worth mentioning that after two years of research and development, those experts finally researched and developed the first generation of genetically modified rice.
Yesterday, Shuichi Minano went to visit!
The yield per mu has reached two thousand catties.
This is the benefit of genetically modified rice, although it may not be delicious, but the yield is high! The key point is that after this experiment was successful, a total of 10,000 mu of land was planted, and this time the harvest reached 20 million catties of rice.
This is only the first phase of planting. The people at the company have made plans. They plan to plant a total of 40,000 mu of rice next year. By then, tons and tons of grain will be produced.
In a few years, he will be able to export these genetically modified rice to the United States, Europe, and the stick. Of course, people in the island will basically eat the fragrant genetically modified rice.
Even those experts are arrogant: our genetically modified rice must occupy the entire rice market.
…
The 5,000 mu of rice is currently being harvested, and it is believed that it will be dried and sold in two weeks.
Two weeks passed quickly.
These fresh genetically modified rice began to be listed one after another and flowed to the rice wholesale market…
Shiba Tian is a Tokyo rice wholesaler who sells millions of tons of rice every year. His father did this job. When he grew up, he inherited his father's store. After 20 years of hard work, he made the store bigger. At present, it has become one of the largest rice wholesalers in Tokyo. His future goal is to become a city agent!
Therefore, although he is in his forties, he is still working hard.
Today Shiba Tian met a person, this person is not his client, but a rice salesman, this salesman is called Harada Taichi.
"Hello, Mr. Shiba, I'm selling you a new type of rice from our farmer company! This rice is called high-yield rice, and it can produce about 2,000 catties per mu." Harada Taichi said with a smile. The high-yield rice in his mouth is genetically modified rice. Of course, he will not say what kind of genetically modified rice. It sounds better to call high-yield rice. Is there any wood?
"New type of rice, high-yield rice? 2 kilograms per mu?" Shiba was stunned after hearing this. To be honest, he certainly knew something about the rice industry in this business. The average yield of rice per mu is 1,000 catties. Now there is a kind of rice with a yield of 2 kilograms per mu?
This is too scary.
sounds a bit alarmist.
"Yes, our rice can really yield so much per mu. If you don't believe me, I can show it to you." Harada Taichi took out some photos, and the most important thing is that he took out a sample of rice to give other side.
"Look, this is our high-yield rice, isn't it good?" Harada Taichi held a small bag of rice to show the other party.
Shiba Tian looked at the rice in front of him, and he found that there was no big difference from the usual rice. The difference was that the grains of these rice were even bigger.
"Wow, the color of these rice is really white, the grains are full, and it looks very good." Shiba's eyes widened, he found that the rice looked very good.
Not only is the particle uniform, but also large, the most important thing is that the color is very white and clean, which is very good.
"How is it, not bad?" Harada Taichi smiled.
"Not bad, it looks good. This is the first time I heard about your high-yield rice." Shiba said with a heart.
"Hi~ Our rice was just developed this year. So you haven't heard of it. These rice are the first harvest and the first time they entered the market..." Harada Taichi explained at the beginning.
"I see!"
"I wonder if you are interested in buying?"
"How much is the wholesale price per pound?" Shiba asked.
"You know, the current average selling price of rice is 200 yen a pound, and the wholesale price is 190 yen a pound. But our wholesale price for high-yield rice is 100 yen a pound. We set the market price at 120 yen. Sell it. You can make a profit of 20 yen per catty in the middle..." Harada Taichi said with a smile.
Sure enough, after hearing this price, Shiba Tian's eyes widened!
"So cheap?" Shiba opened his mouth wide and said he couldn't believe it, it was too cheap, right?
"Yes, it's just that cheap. Because it's a high-yielding crop, we've lowered the price. This also allows everyone to eat fragrant rice, hehe..." Shiba said.
"You guys, you are really benefiting the people of our island nation." Shiba was moved, but he was actually overjoyed in his heart. Such cheap rice will definitely be out of stock by then. He must buy more.
"Of course, our goal is to let everyone eat fragrant rice, and let all the poor eat fragrant rice. Now the price of rice is low, I believe it will be very good at that time." Harada Taichi smiled. . He knew that this genetically modified rice would definitely take the market by storm.
Because of its high yield, because of its low price, although it has shortcomings, that is, the taste is not as delicious as those of rice, but it can't stop its low price, right?
He believed that school canteens, canteens of various business units, and fast-food restaurants would buy this kind of rice.
At the same time, all kinds of rice processed food will use this kind of cheap rice.
In this way, 20 million catties of rice flowed into the Tokyo rice market.
For a while, this kind of 'high-yield rice' appeared in major supermarkets, major retailers, and major markets in Tokyo.
Its retail price of 120 yen per pound makes most citizens crazy.
There was a frenzy.
The retail price of ordinary rice is 200 yen per pound, but high-yield rice only costs 120 yen per pound. This difference is too big! The citizens couldn't stop it at all.
A large supermarket.
The manager saw that the 50 tons of rice that had just entered yesterday was sold out today and immediately called the wholesaler to pull another 100 tons of rice!
"Nani? Out of stock? No!" growled the manager.
"It's impossible to be out of stock. I'll give you a little higher price. Can you deliver it right away?"
"Nani? Can? Very good, very good, hurry up and deliver it."
“…”
In this way, high-yield rice officially entered thousands of households, benefiting mankind. Benefit the public of the island nation.
