Chapter 172 Finding a Market
"Secretary Su, take it. This guy is so rich now. If he puts it in the past, he will have to beat the local tyrants and evil gentry." Ma Qinghan said with a smile.
"Then I'll lend you." Secretary Su was indeed a little tight on his hands.
"Is it enough to spend? If it's not enough, borrow more from me." Chen Ming asked.
"Enough is enough, and the salary will be paid in a few days." Su Moxi didn't have the nerve to ask Chen Ming to borrow money.
"Doctor Chen, come and get the guys over to fill the honey." Chen Ming had already prepared a large open ceramic jar.
Ma Qinghan put a simple filter on the ceramic jar, picked up the bucket of shaking honey, and let the honey flow from the wooden bucket to the ceramic jar. There are inevitably some impurities in the golden honey, such as some bee pupae and bees accidentally dropped in the honey, and some residue that fell from the pages of the honeycomb. The honey is golden and poured out like amber.
"This is the real honey of flowers. Drinking it is best for the skin. If you have a cold, soak a cup of warm water in honey and drink it. It is better than taking cold medicine." Ma Qinghan said.
"Ah, it can beautify it. In this case, I don't need to use skin care products after drinking honey water?" Su Moxi's eyes lit up.
"This is much better than skin care products. There are some side effects in skin care products. This honey is pure natural, and it nourishes the skin and enhances resistance after drinking it. This is not comparable to those honey fed with syrup." Ma Qinghan said.
"Uncle Ma, don't advertise my honey. I don't plan to sell the honey." Chen Ming smiled.
"You can finish drinking so much honey?" Ma Qinghan said with a smile.
"It's a pity to sell such good honey. I'll drink some of it myself. If I can't finish it, I can give it to someone." Chen Ming didn't care about the little money he sold this honey.
A pound of wild honey is sold at a price of fifty yuan per pound in Chashu Village. People who don’t know how to do business think that the honey is expensive, but it is actually a big gift for bleeding.
"If you put such pure natural honey in the city and sell it, you will be rushing to buy it for 100 yuan per pound." Su Moxi said.
"In theory, this pure natural honey is worth the price. The problem is that you people in the city don't know how to do it. I said it is pure natural, and they will not believe it or recognize it. This kind of flower nectar is better than rape honey. Rape flower honey has a high moisture content and a little lower temperature, it will turn into oil and freeze. This kind of flower nectar has less moisture and will not solidify even if it is kept in the refrigerator. Just like oil, it will have better results after drinking it." Ma Qinghan has been raising honey for many years and is very knowledgeable about honey.
Pure natural honey is similar to wild honey, and has much higher nutritional and medicinal value than those honey fed with syrup.
It is still difficult to avoid some fine impurities remaining in the filtered honey, but the appearance has improved a lot.
Chen Ming did not prepare any bottles for honey at home, but he also had many clay pots made by himself to hold honey. This box of bees shook seven or eight kilograms of honey. The tea pot he used to hold tea balls can hold about one kilogram of honey.
"I'm ordering some bottles for you online specifically for honey. The lid can be sealed." Su Moxi picked some honey bottles for Chen Ming on the shopping software.
"Uncle Ma, bring two cans back." Chen Ming took two cans for Ma Qinghan.
"No, no, no." Ma Qinghan refused to collect it firmly, "I have six or seven boxes of honey, shake dozens of kilograms of honey at a time, and I can't finish it."
"Uncle Ma, is your honey pure and natural?" Su Moxi asked.
"If you ask other people, I dare not make a promise, but Uncle Ma's honey is never adulterated. It is definitely 100% pure honey." Chen Ming said.
"I can't guarantee 100% because I always have to feed it in the rainy season. Some of them will remain in the hive. But more than 90% of them must be pure natural." Ma Qinghan is an honest man. He really can't do the kind of thing that feeds bees with syrup to make things fake and real.
"If you can guarantee that your honey is not adulterated, I can help you sell the honey. It depends on what price you want." Su Moxi asked.
"My honey is only fifty per pound." Ma Qinghan did not ask for a high price, nor did he take the opportunity to raise the price because Su Moxi said before that he could sell at least 100 in the city.
"Fifty is too cheap. I'll contact you first. I dare not say that there are too many. There is absolutely no problem with more than 81 pounds. Uncle Ma, we can say that honey has been sold well, so don't adulterate it." Su Moxi was just worried that Ma Qinghan would not be able to withstand the temptation.
"Don't worry. Secretary Su, I will definitely not adulterate. You can put my honey anywhere to test it. If I have adulterate, one for one, one for ten." Ma Qinghan patted his chest and promised.
"Uncle Ma, I believe in you. Sales will be in touch with you soon." Su Moxi sent a message from her family members.
"Authentic pure natural honey, honey from beekeepers in Chashu Village, will never be adulterated. I need it."
Su Moxi sent the news in the group, and the aunts and aunts immediately sent a message to ask.
"Xiao Su, don't be fooled. Honey will be adulterated now. People in the countryside are so cunning now. What you show you is pure natural honey, and what you see in your hands will become adulterated honey. If you can have half of the honey, you will be lucky."
"Last time I went on a trip, I bought a bottle of legendary wild honey, but I took it back and showed it to the experts. It was full of syrup, mixed with a little real honey, and some pollen. I just smelled the fragrance of pollen and mistakenly thought it was authentic honey."
...
Su Moxi quickly replied: "You can rest assured. The villagers in our village are very honest and honest. You can use them for testing with confidence. If adulteration, one will be fined ten. But one thing needs to be explained..."
"Xiao Su, don't worry. As long as the pure natural honey is more than 90%, it will be considered very good honey."
"As long as it is real honey, one hundred and two hundred is not a problem. I have drunk authentic honey a few times before, and the effect is really good."
...
Su Moxi chatted for a while, then put away his phone and said to Ma Qinghan: "Uncle Ma, I have already contacted you. I packed all the honey you have at home. They want all the more you have. Even if it's 100 pounds."
"One hundred? It's too high. Just give fifty. The villagers buy my honey for fifty." Ma Qinghan already regarded Su Moxi as a villager. He sold others for fifty or her for fifty, so he naturally felt sorry for it.
"Let's get the best. It's eighty. Uncle Ma, other people's adulterated honey is also sold for fifty. It's a little loss to sell for fifty. Eighty is more reasonable. But you can guarantee the quality of honey in the future and don't make it difficult for Secretary Su to be a member of the family. Secretary Su probably sold your honey to her relatives and friends." Chen Ming became an intermediary and said.
"How do you know?" Su Moxi was a little surprised.
"How much connection can you have, a college student who has just graduated? Others will not believe that you get authentic honey after listening to your words. Only your relatives know that you will not cheat them." Chen Ming smiled. This matter was too easy to guess.
When Ma Qinghan heard that he was a relative of Su Moxi's family, he yelled to reduce the price to fifty.
"Uncle Ma, our business is also a long-term business. As long as you ensure good quality, you don't have to worry about the price. They buy a small bottle of several hundred yuan in the city, which is much more expensive than yours. Bees may not be as pure as you." Su Moxi said.
Ma Qinghan refused to accept Chen Ming's honey, and Chen Ming was not overbearing.
Su Moxi did not refuse, and had dinner with Ma Qinghan at Chen Ming's house, and happily went back with two bottles of honey.
Su Moxi asked Ma Qinghan about beekeeping along the way.
Before, Su Moxi had never noticed that there was such a way to make money in the countryside.
"Uncle Ma, according to you, how many boxes of honey can be accommodated in our village to reach saturation?" Su Moxi asked.
"If I keep bees like me, I will raise dozens of boxes of bees and I will reach the top. After all, bees can only fly that far away from collecting honey. Pollen is limited. Usually, when flowers are relatively small, they cannot supply too many bees. However, real beekeepers often drive cars and drag beehives to follow the flowers. However, that is very hard." Ma Qinghan said.
Scattered beekeeping like Ma Qinghan is different from large-scale beekeeping. Bees are also prone to illness. Once they are not taken good care of, they may fall into bed. Su Moxi wanted to set up a large-scale beekeeping farm in Teashu Village. After all, there is a natural treasure house near Teashu Village. Various wild flowers bloom continuously all year round. They can produce relatively high-value honey. In the future, the honey brand of Teashu Village can even be established.
Although Ma Qinghan talked about a lot of the risks of beekeeping, Su Moxi was not worried. Young people consider problems differently from those of the elderly. Technical issues can be solved by technical experts. Su Moxi only considers the feasibility of the industry.
Su Moxi considers that a single industrial model cannot support the comprehensive revitalization of Tea Tree Village. She wants to build a diversified new rural industrial model in Tea Tree Village.
Chen Ming piled the remaining jars of honey in the corner, and he was not very interested in sweets. There were no insects or rats at home. Since he put them on the talisman of the house and settle down, Chen Ming had never seen rats or other mice at home. Mosquitoes and other things disappeared.
As soon as the little yellow dog came back, he smelled the smell of honey. After walking to the corner of the wall, he lost interest. Sweet food was not very attractive to it. It would be better to give it a bone than to give it a can of honey.
"Don't touch me honey, otherwise I'll kill you and eat dog meat." Chen Ming warned the little yellow dog.
The little yellow dog looked at Chen Ming disdainfully, meaning that you don’t care about your honey for me.
A screaming in the yard.
The three pigs actually ran back very rarely. They had been in the territory of the Wild Boar King for more than a week.
