You've been reborn and you're going to go farm?
Chapter 45 Agricultural Technology Projects
The first day of September was terribly gloomy.
The humid air made my skin feel sticky.
Just past lunchtime, three middle-aged men wearing short-sleeved shirts pushed open the glass door of Youguohui No. 1 Store.
The cold air instantly made everyone more alert.
"It's so cool in this shop!"
The man in front smiled at the two behind him.
They had just eaten and came over to digest their food, and also to see if there was any suitable fruit.
"Let's get a watermelon, to cool everyone down this afternoon."
"Alright!"
The group strolled over to the watermelon display area, and the person in front habitually reached for a Kirin watermelon.
Kirin melons are very famous, and you're unlikely to be disappointed if you buy from a store like this.
However, the two people behind him exclaimed "Huh?"
"Hey, this is interesting, Lao Zhang, look at this." His companion pointed to several watermelons placed in another area below.
"These are a little different; they even have ID cards attached."
Old Zhang glanced over and saw a neat white label: "Sugar content: 13%, Texture: Crispy..."
"Wow, they dare to label it 13% sweetness! That's sweeter than many Kirin melons!"
"Hey waiter, are these watermelons a new item for your store? I've never seen them before."
A shop assistant approached quickly with a smile: "Yes, sir, this is a supplier that our boss personally found. It just arrived today."
The arrival of Qingshan watermelons in the store was not a big deal.
This was Li Yao's advice to Zhao Yu: good products speak for themselves. The 20,000 jin they were testing wasn't much; let the market quietly verify it first and see if this "data bomb" could make a splash on its own.
If the initial response isn't good, they can adjust their strategy to avoid wasting resources on extensive publicity.
Hearing the waiter's words, Old Zhang couldn't help but chuckle: "The price is so high, is it really that high?"
The salesperson continued with a smile: "The main selling point of this watermelon is its transparent data, so you can buy with confidence. Many of our customers today have come back to buy it a second time, and the feedback has been excellent."
"And look, this label also has a traceability website. Through this traceability code, you can find out the origin information of this watermelon."
"So confident!" Old Zhang was somewhat surprised, turning to look at his two companions behind him: "Isn't this what they called in the news, the transparency of agricultural product information?"
"Just for that label, get me one."
"Give me one of those Qilin melons too."
"If it doesn't taste good, there's still a Kirin melon to make do."
"Haha, yes, yes, yes!"
The three of them smiled and paid, then carried the watermelon into the office building next door.
At 3 PM, in the office of Explosive Technology: "Come on, everyone, Mr. Zhang bought a data melon today. Let's all take a look."
Two plates of sliced watermelon were brought out.
"Oh, thank you, Mr. Zhang!"
Old Zhang stood at the office door, looking at the employees in the lobby, and replied with a smile, "Let's see if you can guess which one is the 'Data Melon' and which one is the 'Kirin Melon'!"
"Data watermelon?" The employees finally realized what was going on. "Mr. Zhang, you're not talking about the new variety of watermelon from Youguohui downstairs, are you?"
Someone said, "I saw it when I went to buy bananas this morning."
"Yes, yes, yes."
The employees each took a piece from a plate and started eating it, each guarding the trash can.
"So sweet!"
Exclamations of surprise rang out in the next moment.
"Both are very sweet."
"However, the one I have is clearly sweet from the core to the skin, while this one is a bit lacking."
"No doubt, this all-sweet one is a Kirin melon!"
Most people think this way.
After all, the Kirin melon is very famous.
Seeing the confident looks on everyone's faces, General Manager Zhang exchanged a glance with the other two executives, then laughed heartily: "See, I was right!"
"Everyone's probably guessing that's the Kirin melon!"
"Come, come, take a look!"
He turned one of the plates over, and on it, the words "Qingshan" were faintly visible, pasted on the bottom.
"You're all wrong, there's no overtime pay for working today!"
Although Mr. Zhang said that, none of the employees paid any attention.
Instead, I noticed the information on the label: "Wow, they actually listed the sugar content and taste!"
What is this website for?
Mr. Zhang continued, "The girl selling watermelons said it's a traceability website. You can enter the code on it to see the place of origin information."
"Really?"
"These days, buying a watermelon is on par with buying a computer?"
"Take a look right away!"
Someone quickly entered the website into their computer, and the website loaded very quickly.
Everyone was stunned for a moment when they saw the simple two characters "Qingshan" appear before them.
"Rooted in the earth, all I see are green mountains!"
"This boss has some ideas!"
"Come on, enter the traceability code..."
Click, click, search!
The information slowly appeared:
Product: Qingshan Watermelon (Jingxin Variety)
Harvesting date: August 31, 2012
Sugar content: 13%
Texture: Crispy
Batch: NB20120831A5
Picking plot: A5 [Image]
Friendly reminder: It is recommended to eat it as soon as possible, as the taste will change as the harvesting time increases...
"Oh my!"
"Really?"
"These days, you can even sell watermelons like this?"
"No, no, I have to buy one for my wife to try after get off work!"
……
Jiang Lin stood in front of counselor Liang Bo: "No, you're asking for leave on the very first day of class?"
"I know the farm work is important, but you don't need to go back, do you?"
"Aren't your parents home?"
At this moment, Gu Zhengwei was peeking in from the doorway.
Liang Bo glanced at him. "What do you want now?"
"You didn't come to ask me for leave on your very first day, did you?"
Gu Zhengwei darted in through the door, grinning obsequiously, "Director Liang, I'm not looking for you, I'm looking for him."
Liang Bo: ...
To be honest, those two lads were quite reliable last year.
How come he's become so mischievous after just one summer vacation?
"Give me a reason, otherwise this leave won't be approved..."
Jiang Lin coughed lightly: "Actually, it's like this..."
"Old Gu and I worked on an agricultural technology project together..."
"We're currently in a crucial phase of implementation; is it necessary to go down to the fields and collect data?"
Liang Bo: ? ? ?
Gu Zhengwei: ? ? ?
Gu Zhengwei was stunned when he saw Jiang Lin's serious and solemn appearance.
Why does it sound like they're building airplanes and cannons coming from Jiang Lin's mouth when it's just about uploading data to Excel?
"Yes, yes, yes! Jiang Lin has to handle this personally!"
"He knows the land well, so it's definitely not feasible for me to go."
As Gu Zhengwei spoke, he winked at Jiang Lin.
Watching the two clowns chattering away, Liang Bo felt a throbbing pain in his temples.
"Come, come, let me see what this agricultural technology project of yours is all about!"
