Chapter 220 The Power of Ketchup
"Xiao Lin, Ah Hu, each table has one plate of braised taro and two plates of tomato sauce." Su Zhenhong instructed in the kitchen.
"Okay." Su Xiaolin, Su Hu and the others nodded and went out with braised taro and tomato sauce.
"Grandpa, uncle, I want to eat braised taro too." Su Yan ran directly into the kitchen to eat.
"We are very busy, go to your grandma or mother." Su Zhenhong said.
"Yanyan, come here." Su Zhenyue took a small bowl, filled it with a bowl of braised taro, and handed it to Su Yan, "Take it, but don't come into the kitchen again, or we will accidentally knock you down when we are busy. Do you know that you should go to your uncle to eat?"
"Uncle I know." Su Yan called sweetly, took the bowl of braised taro, and said, "I want tomato sauce."
"Okay, I'll give you a bowl of tomato sauce too." Su Zhenyue smiled.
Su Yan held the taro in one hand and the ketchup in the other, walked carefully to the living room, put it on the table, and ate it by herself, grabbed the taro directly with her hands, dipped it in the ketchup, stuffed it into her mouth, and then showed a sense of intoxication. color.
After eating a piece of taro in three or two bites, she licked the ketchup on her hands, her eyes lit up, and she dipped a little ketchup into her mouth, making her eyes brighter. Then, holding up the small bowl of ketchup, the puppy licked it like a puppy, licking the small bowl of ketchup completely. She remembered the words of her grandfather and uncle, and instead of going to the kitchen, she went directly to find Su Jing. Naturally, Su Jing would not be stingy towards this little niece, and directly gave her two red and big fresh tomatoes.
At the same time, the guests in the yard also discovered the deliciousness of tomato sauce. One by one, they wrapped the taro in the bowl and used up the tomato sauce in three or two times. There were even some thick-skinned ones, such as Qin Shuang, Tang Xiaoyu, Qin Xulan, and Liu Qing directly grabbed the bowl of tomato sauce, and after only one bite, they decided that the tomato sauce was prepared by Su Jing. However, they miscalculated this time. The deliciousness of tomato sauce is not in the preparation, but in the tomato itself.
"Uncle, many people want ketchup, do you have any more?" Su Liang walked into the kitchen.
"Didn't I just bring two bowls of ketchup to each table. It seems that the only thing that needs ketchup is taro, so why should I need so much ketchup?" Su Zhenhong said strangely.
"I don't know, many people are rushing to eat ketchup, and one guy eats ketchup directly." Su Liang was also a little strange.
"Rush to eat?" Su Zhenhong scooped a bit of tomato sauce with a spoon, put it into his mouth, and quickly widened his eyes. He made the tomato sauce himself, and he knew that the method was as simple as usual. The reason why it was so delicious , It should not be the reason for the practice. Thinking of Su Jing's reaction before, he couldn't help thinking, "Aren't the tomatoes in the refrigerator ordinary tomatoes?"
However, Su Zhenhong didn't think much about it, and said, "Just say no, there is no way to be full of tomato sauce."
"A Jing, how did you prepare this tomato sauce? Why is it so delicious?" When Su Jing went to greet the guests, Wang Zhuo pulled Su Jing to sit down and asked, Qian Shufeng and Zhao Zhi were even more excited. I wanted to invite Su Jing back to the hotel restaurant to be a chef, but unfortunately it failed, and Su Jing's cooking skills could not be bought, but this secret recipe for tomato sauce might be able to be bought.
"Hehe, this ketchup is prepared just like ordinary ketchup," Su Jing said.
"It's impossible." Qian Shufeng and Zhao Zhi denied in unison that their hotel restaurant is not without tomato sauce, and the chef's finely-tuned tomato sauce and other sauces are not so delicious. How can ordinary tomato sauce be so delicious? Dozens of people at the table are robbing ketchup, which is not easy to see.
"Haha." Su Jing smiled and didn't say a word. He went and brought two tomatoes, cut them into many pieces in front of them, and said, "You guys eat and see."
Wang Zhuo, Wang Siya, Qian Shufeng, and Zhao Zhi all looked puzzled and didn't know what Su Jing meant, but Yiyan picked up the tomato, took a bite, and immediately showed a look of shock. That piece of tomato was eaten up.
"You mean, it's the tomato itself, what kind of tomato is this, and why is it so delicious?" Qian Shufeng was surprised, maybe there was a new variety, but he didn't hear any news.
"It turns out that tomatoes can be so delicious when eaten raw." Zhao Zhi praised. Wang Zhuo and Wang Siya simply stopped talking, and ate them piece by piece. They seemed to eat elegantly, but in fact they chewed very quickly, and the two tomatoes were eaten up in a short while.
"Ajing, where did this new variety of tomato come from? There shouldn't be any on the market, right?" Wang Zhuo asked.
"It's a variety that I unintentionally cultivated, there shouldn't be any on the market." Su Jing nodded.
"You cultivated it by accident?" Wang Zhuo was stunned for a while, then smiled, "You said it very lightly, if you heard this from the Academy of Agricultural Sciences, it would be a jump off, they spent a lot of money for ten years. , I haven't developed such a delicious tomato."
"It's just a coincidence." Su Jing scratched his head, he just picked up a variety of tomatoes in the garbage of mortal Xiuxian Chuan, and he didn't deserve any credit.
"Such a good tomato, have you ever thought about planting a large area and developing agriculture? Because the tourism industry has been doing well recently, someone from your mayor recommended me a large area of arable land. It is said that it used to be that kind of corn. If the harvest is not good, we will lose money, and the land has been deserted for several months." Wang Zhuo suddenly moved his mind.
"Of course I've thought about it, I'm about to find a place to recruit people." Su Jing's eyes lit up. In fact, if he were to do it on a large scale, the most troublesome thing would be finding a place, plus procedures, recruitment, sales channels, etc. The messy questions were too troublesome, causing Su Jing to take no action. After all, it is impossible to spend too much time and energy on this matter. If you can cooperate with Wang Zhuo, it will definitely save you worry and effort.
"But there is a problem, the protection of agricultural patents is too weak. At present, in the international conventions, although both the TRIPS agreement and the UPOV agreement stipulate that new plant varieties can be protected through patents, as members of the TRIPS agreement, many are still in their New plant varieties are not granted patent rights in domestic law. At present, my country does not grant patent protection to animal and plant varieties, including new plant varieties bred by genetic engineering. Only the special new plant variety law protects new plant varieties." Wang Zhuo said , paused for a while, and continued, "In short, once this new variety comes out, anyone can use it to cultivate and plant it, we will lose our advantage, and then the profit will be very limited."
Wang Zhuo's meaning is very obvious, this tomato can only make the first one, and then this variety will definitely spread all over the country, and then it will become an ordinary agricultural product. Of course, if you plant well, you can still make money, but for him and Su Jing, this kind of profit is not worth the investment.
"Brother Zhuo, what if I can guarantee that this new breed will not leak out?" Su Jing said, making Wang Zhuo's eyes narrow.
