Text: Chapter 1168: Yield Issues
There are jobs, and they are leisurely careers that Americans love. Just working a quarter or so a year is more or less enough.
But if you want to work proficiently, there are really not many people who can do it. Now the Truffle Manor produces truffles every day, most of which are dug out by the staff in the manor. In addition, truffle hunters are hired with high salaries from Australia, Italy, France and other places.
Relying on these talents to supply Zhou Jiexi's own sky city. It is quite a lot to dig out, but there are grades for digging out, and the top ones will be sent to the lower level of Sky City for storage, and they are going to be sold to others.
Now with the arrival of the students, among other things, it is true that the number of truffles has increased. From digging up 50 kilograms of truffles a day to 200 kilograms of truffles a day, it is fully proved that there is strength in numbers.
Based on the optimal truffle production ratio of about ten to one on the farm, the high-grade truffles that Zhou Jiexi can get every day have stabilized at about 20 kilograms. Among them, the yield rate of the white truffle and the purple truffle are also different.
These are only excavated in the best few test fields. If it is necessary to enlarge the ratio of digging, it is estimated that there is one-thirtieth of the yield, and Zhou Jiexi really has to thank him.
The global annual output of white truffles is now stable at three tons, or three thousand kilograms, which is three thousand kilograms when converted into kilograms. There are many more black truffles, and the annual global production can reach at least 35 tons.
It's a pity that these high-end goods are not enough for the global market. The annual consumption of the global truffle market reaches 200 tons, and with the supply of low-grade truffles from China and other regions, only about half of the gap is blocked.
Every year, European countries face a shortage of about 100 tons of truffles. There are also many fakes that have turned low-grade truffles into mid-range truffles and sold them. These are all money. Now that Zhou Jiexi owns the Truffle Manor, it can be said that he can at least change the status quo of the market.
The truffle manor is calculated on the basis of 4,000 acres of forest land. If it goes well in the future, it can provide about 150 tons of truffles every year.
This Zhou Jiexi really didn't do any random calculations, it was all based on the minimum calculations. In 4,000 acres of woodland, there are about 360 trees per acre. (In fact, there must be more planted than this, and these are calculated according to the basic plan.)
There are about 1.5 million trees in 4,000 acres. On average, a truffle grows from a fungus block under a tree, which is 0.1 kg. Ten trees can produce one kilogram, and ten thousand trees can produce one ton.
Comparing the data in this way, we can get a possible truffle output of about 150 tons. It can be more or less, depending on the final output of this year to be determined.
Calculated in this way, even if the high-end truffles are not counted, if the middle-end truffles are calculated, it can bring Zhou Jiexi an income of 100 to 200 million US dollars every year.
As for impacting the market and causing price cuts, it is definitely possible. However, Zhou Jiexi would not plan to lower the price to sell it, or someone else would lower the price. He would rather rot in the field than sell it at a lower price. Like to buy or not, there are so many gaps in high-end restaurants around the world every year, it would be nice if we can provide mid-to-high-end truffles.
How can it be possible for him to lower the price? This is the truffle in the low-end market, and the price may need to be adjusted again. Rich people in the high-end market can eat high-end truffles when they can't eat them. What is better than consuming this.
Outside Truffle Estate, buyers look at some tentative offers. Now the price of the highest-grade gold-threaded white truffle produced in the Truffle Manor has reached 4,000 US dollars per kilogram. And this price will continue to increase, buyers have no doubt about it.
Those who have tried this delicious truffle know that there will be more rich people who will pay for this high-end ingredient, and all they need to do is to get this high-end truffle back to their restaurants for sale.
There are many varieties of high-end truffles and middle-end truffles in the Truffle Manor, each with its own characteristics. These prices do not differ from the prices of international ingredients. The price of a kilogram is still fluctuating between US$500 and US$1,000 or less.
After Jessie Zhou came back, Atwood came with the other Tom and Rem. The expressions of these old guys are not so good, and there is a group of men and women who are all dressed in business suits. This is another management team after Truffle Manor, responsible for administrative sales and other things.
The other two became the managers of the truffle manor, and the division of labor and cooperation also allowed the power to run at the highest speed.
Walking into the office, he sat down directly on the main seat. Mary, the assistant next to him, went to pour him a cup of coffee with a wink. Others sat down on both sides. The actual management of the manor was divided into two sides with the future administrative management.
"Our daily appearances are too low!" Zhou Jiexi said directly. "Two hundred kilograms of truffles are collected every day, which is far from enough. We have 150 tons of truffles here, two hundred kilograms a day. The truffle season has passed and we haven't finished digging yet!"
The administrative management obviously turned their attention to Tom and Rem. Atwood is now sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai. After Truffle Manor is getting more and more on track and becoming more and more formal, he doesn't need to be here. While looking up.
"We are working hard to increase the daily output, and now we have reached the output under the condition of damaging some truffles. In addition, we have hired a coaching team with a high salary and a group of students. As long as we can manage it, we will be 100 Fifteen people work and can..."
Before he finished speaking, Zhou Jiexi frowned and interrupted directly: "Join if there are not enough people. There are so many people out there who want to work for us, and the salary of the students is also very low, just a commission is enough. I don't We need a reason, according to our current situation, the minimum output should be one ton per day, which is one thousand kilograms.”
He directly raised a finger to show them: "This year we have a piece of land with buried gold in front of us. Don't you guys have any excitement and want to dig for gold all the time?"
"I'm sorry boss, we will get it done as soon as possible!" Tom and Rem immediately knew what he meant. Even if there is gold, there must be tools. Truffles are buried in the soil, and you don’t even know if they are there. The increase in production is not that simple.
