Chapter 2228 The character collapses

A week is neither short nor long, but it is different for vegetables. Anyone who knows how to grow vegetables knows that once tomatoes mature, they will change greatly even in one night.

This week has been a torture for many groups who pay attention to Xihanling, especially the media in Pengcheng. They can see the tomatoes turning purple every day, from the first layer to the third layer. , even the tomatoes on the fourth layer were dyed deep purple.

As for cucumbers, it is even more exaggerated. The cucumbers are increasing and getting bigger. People can see that the shelves made of iron pipes have been bent into a bow shape. There are no more green wolves. In order to take care of the vegetables, many workers will live in temporary structures every day. The simple shed endured mosquito bites.

Countless people are surprised by the appearance of mosquitoes. You must know that Zhao Xinyu has been developing Xihanling for more than ten years. The reason why Xihanling is so popular is largely because bees can be seen in this area. Of these insects, only the annoying mosquitoes and flies are not seen, even in the humid areas that mosquitoes and flies like most.

People had questions again, and some media immediately jumped out. They said that mosquitoes could never be exterminated anywhere. The reason why mosquitoes and flies were not seen in the development areas of the Emperor Group was because they used pesticides.

Of course, as soon as their remarks came out, they immediately attracted counterattacks from countless people, because everyone knew that the Dijun Group did not use any pesticides. If mosquito and fly pesticides were used, it would definitely be detected in the agricultural products, but every year the Dijun Group Product testing has never found chemicals in the cultivated species. .🄳.🄼

Just the day before the opening of the Xihanling Picking Festival, Pengcheng Development held a press conference. They said that they would change the previous picking restrictions. Tomorrow, when the picking festival starts, everyone or individuals will not be able to pick. There will be no restrictions, and all picked vegetables can be purchased, but picked vegetables are not allowed to be left behind.

Dijun Group has been operating Xihanling for more than ten years. People who are paying attention not only at home but also abroad know that every vegetable has a beautiful color and a taste that is unmatched by similar vegetables.

Now that picking is open, the vegetable vendors who would be stuck near villages like Xihanling every year immediately became excited. They began to call their friends that day and asked them to help pick vegetables tomorrow. Many of them had tasted the benefits last year. Restaurants even hold meetings for employees in order to store more vegetables.

The next day, around five o'clock, Xihanling and many surrounding villages were crowded with people. Media and self-media in Pengcheng and other regions began to report on it.

Xihanling, Taicun, and Fengjiazhuang, the three villages that can grow longevity vegetables, are even more crowded with people coming to pick them.

At eight o'clock in the morning, fireworks and firecrackers were rising in an area, and a leader from Pengcheng even delivered an opening speech for the picking festival.

Maybe their starting point is good, but it has aroused the resentment of countless people. Every year from the Spring Festival to the Lantern Festival, Xihanling will be lit up with fireworks and activities, but this year the entire Xihanling is lifeless, which is better now A picking festival was held like a Chinese New Year, which made everyone doubt their motives. When they wanted to make profits, they thought of opening the festival, but when the people were looking forward to it, they all chose to dive.

When the picking started, people really saw what madness was. People entering the vegetable fields were like bandits, frantically grabbing vegetables, and fights broke out in more places.

In just two hours, the originally planned one-week picking festival ended hastily, not because people didn’t pick, but because too many people came in, and there were no ripe tomatoes or cucumbers in the vegetable patch. They were picked and thrown away. On the ground, the vegetable fields after picking seemed to have been swept away. The harmonious scene when Zhao Xinyu was managing it has disappeared today.

Faced with this situation, many people watching the live broadcast on TV and platforms not only sighed, but Pengcheng and even many media and self-media were still promoting it. They thought that people became so crazy because they recognized the vegetables grown this year. .

In a conference room of the workshop, Du Mengnan looked at the messy scene in the picture. He looked at Zhao Xinyu, "Zhao Xinyu, they are..."

Zhao Xinyu smiled coldly, "A planting and development company that doesn't even have management talents is really pathetic. With this kind of picking, even if they grow our vegetables, they can only lose money."

Everyone nodded, not to mention now, even when they had not come into contact with Zhao Xinyu, they knew that if such picking would have a great impact on the growers, it would definitely not be used if it is not mature. This is a waste. When the shelf fell down, they had to re-build it, which would inevitably cause some tomato, cucumber, and bean seedlings to break. Once broken, the entire shelf of tomatoes and cucumbers would wither.

What the media promotes is because people like it, but in fact it reveals the chaos of management. Their managers do not understand planting at all, let alone the consequences of such picking. Although they sell vegetables suitable for sale, But it has caused fatal harm to more immature vegetables. It seems that the losses are far more than the gains.

As the scene changed, the road in front of Wuyou Restaurant was lined with trucks loading vegetables. A Pengcheng media outlet was interviewing a vegetable vendor. According to the vegetable vendor, he spent more than 40 years on this trip. Relatives and friends, this time he spent a total of 160,000.

Looking at the media's praise for Pengcheng's development and the excited eyes of the vegetable vendors, Zhao Xinyu couldn't help but shake his head.

"Xinyu, they..."

"They won't be able to laugh anymore in the afternoon. It's a pity that those who believe in them suffer. Tomorrow, Xihanling will return to what it was before the New Year."

As Zhao Xinyu said, at noon that day, the Internet, which was originally full of praise for this picking activity, suddenly changed direction. Countless people began to complain that the color of the vegetables they picked was indeed good, but the taste was really the same as that of the original Emperor. The ones sold by the group are too different, and the taste is at best similar to the vegetables sold by the surrounding vegetable farmers.

Those who picked in Xihanling, Taicun, and Fengjiazhuang even cursed Pengcheng Development as a liar, because the tomatoes and cucumbers they picked did not make them feel comfortable at all, and they paid a high price. But what they are buying now is the taste grown by the surrounding vegetable farmers. How can they not be angry?

It was just an incident at noon, and the joy of the picking activity was gone. Those vendors who had originally imagined making a lot of money through this picking activity were even more tearful. Who would be willing to spend high prices to buy the taste? Average vegetables.

More people directly called Pengcheng Development and asked them to refund their money. In the afternoon, the Ring Road on the Xihanling side was full of people who wanted their money back.

The response from Pengcheng Development made people even more angry. Their response was that what was planted this year was a new product that the development team spent several years cultivating. The taste was different from the previous taste of the Dijun Group, which was very strange. It's normal. They hope not to be led by people with ulterior motives on the Internet.

It might be better if they didn't respond. Their response made the people participating in the picking even more angry, so the square in front of Wuyou Restaurant turned into a garbage dump.

Some people directly compared the tomatoes and cucumbers they bought from Tingfenglin Dijun Group and stored them last year. Although they had been stored for nearly a year, the taste was not comparable to the tomatoes and cucumbers grown in Xihanling this year.

People might not say anything about growing ordinary vegetables, and they would only buy them in small quantities at most. But now the vegetables they grow are obviously of average taste, but they still have to sell them at the vegetable price set by the Emperor Group. This is unacceptable to people.

The entire Internet is angrily denouncing Pengcheng Development as a liar, which also completely collapses the character of Pengcheng Development.

In the conference room of Xihanling Nursery Base, a middle-aged man in his fifties stared at the white-haired experts sitting on both sides, with a trace of murderous intent in his eyes.

"Tell me what's going on and why the taste of grown vegetables is so different."

A group of agricultural experts hired with high salaries are also confused at the moment. As early as last year, after they got the seeds, the tomatoes and cucumbers they cultivated tasted as good as those cultivated by the Dijun Group.

Although they did not cultivate the seeds, driven by profit and reputation, they still unconscionably took the scientific research results that did not belong to them as their own. Originally, they thought that with this time, their reputation could surpass these few. The young and prosperous Gu Xiangang and others did not want to...

"Manager Diao, you were also present when cultivating the seedlings. Everything was cultivated according to strict procedures. Perhaps it is because we are planting third or fourth generation seeds now."

The middle-aged man's eyes flickered a few times. He was standing here. He was not ignorant. He certainly knew how much influence seeds had on species.

"But the difference in taste shouldn't be so huge."

"Manager Diao, did you get the seeds you gave us from the Dijun Group? We want to know which generation of seeds they are. If they are first-generation seeds, the taste will definitely be incomparable, even if they are grown from second-generation seeds. The taste cannot be compared with the first generation, let alone the third, fourth or even fifth generation.”

Manager Diao was shaken, and he nodded subconsciously, "Now with our current technology, we can use the remaining seeds to cultivate seeds with the same taste."

"It's too difficult. First-generation seeds must have original seedlings. So far, even if we have first-generation seeds, we can only cultivate second-generation seeds at most, and there is no way to cultivate first-generation seeds."

"Then what should we do now? Because of the taste problem, our character has collapsed."

An old man with white hair sighed, "We have reached this point. There is no room for recovery. We can only lower the price. Fortunately, these vegetables are high-yielding and taste much better than vegetables from other regions."

Manager Diao shook his head. His eyes were full of helplessness. They originally expected to become a hit, but they didn't expect that they would fail and they would be stigmatized.

Just this afternoon, Pengcheng Development made another notice that the prices of all types of vegetables began to be reduced to slightly higher prices than ordinary vegetables.

They may want to sell better and recover costs, but this is a great insult to the people who participated in the activity in the morning. You must know that during this picking activity, even ordinary people are calling friends, and there are people in their homes. There were piles of collected vegetables, and the price of each vegetable was the original price of the vegetables of the Emperor Group. This was good now, but after a few hours, the price of vegetables was reduced by half. Such a huge gap, this is not They can accept it.

Although they were angry in their hearts, they had no choice but to accept it. Through this time, they learned a lesson they had never experienced before, and some even said that they would no longer trust the development team.

And those vegetable vendors who grabbed tens of thousands of kilograms of vegetables were crying without tears. The taste was average. The prices at your place in Xihanling were even half-fold. There was no way they could sell the vegetables they grabbed, so they could only Can tearfully lower the price and sell on the street.

It was not cultivated by them, but driven by profit and reputation, they still unconscionably took the scientific research results that did not belong to them as their own. Originally, they thought that with this time, their reputation could surpass the glory of the past few years. Infinite Gu Xiangang and others didn't want to...

"Manager Diao, you were also present when cultivating the seedlings. Everything was cultivated according to strict procedures. Perhaps it is because we are planting third or fourth generation seeds now."

The middle-aged man's eyes flickered a few times. He was standing here. He was not ignorant. He certainly knew how much influence seeds had on species.
