Zhao Yao was now appointed as the manager of Cosmic Planting.
Therefore, before the super lettuce was put on sale this time, Ye Heng had handed everything over to Zhao Yao to manage.
It was also because of this reason that Zhao Yao’s family already had two super lettuce seeds.
Of course, Zhao Yao had taken the initiative to send the seeds to her family.
“Old man, quickly come over and take a look at the newest product from Cosmic Planting. Their super lettuce tastes pretty good. Our daughter took the initiative to send us the seeds ten days ago, so we can finally taste it now.”
Zhao Yao’s mother said with a smile. Zhao Liping, who was also Zhao Yao’s father, sat in the living room and glanced sideways.
“Humph, why are you still talking about her? She’s the heir of our Zhao family group, but she went to chase after a kid. She didn’t even need her group anymore. If I died, wouldn’t my hard-earned family business be given to her, as well as that b*stard kid?”
“It’s too much.”
“You can’t say that. In my opinion, Ye Heng is quite a good person. He can start a company by himself,” Zhao Yao’s mother said.
“Humph, what is this? Trying to come up with some agricultural products is simply fooling around. There is no prospect or future in this.”
Zhao Liping said disdainfully. The Zhao family group under his name was a group that specialized in managing real estate. There were countless real estate and shopping malls under his name. After public listing, they were even worth hundreds of billions.
It was also because of this that Zhao Liping did not think highly of Ye Heng.
“But it is said that this young man’s products are selling well. I heard that he can earn hundreds of millions.” Zhao Yao’s mother opened her phone and said.
“Hehe. It’s just a small company that sells agricultural products. Can it earn hundreds of millions in assets?”
“Didn’t our little girl ask me to help her get a loan or something? This kid’s company went bankrupt once before.” Zhao Liping looked at the super lettuce in Zhao Yao’s mother’s hands.
He almost laughed out loud.
In his opinion, it was impossible to earn so much money just by selling something like lettuce.
Moreover, there were issues related to labour costs and rental expenses. It wasn’t certain how much money he could earn.
“Forget it, old man, you can just look here.” Zhao Yao’s mother opened her phone and found the Cosmic Planting flagship store. She let Zhao Liping take a look.
Zhao Liping took a look. He was surprised to find that one of the two products in the store, the top-tier Tomato No. 1, had sold five million seeds.
As for the other product, the super lettuce, it had sold two million seeds.
One had to know that the latter had only been released for less than ten days. But now, it already had such a high sales volume.
Zhao Liping was even more shocked when he saw the sale price. He had never thought that selling ordinary plant seedlings would be more expensive than the plants.
No wonder it was so profitable. After all, if it was sold at such a price, the proceeds would indeed be considerable.
After deducting some labour costs, they could still secure a lot of funds.
“Our daughter sent it over. Didn’t you eat the tomatoes that were placed in the room? In my opinion, it’s okay for him to sell them for 50 yuan. If he sells them for 500 yuan, I will still buy them,” Zhao Yao’s mother said.
“The two tomatoes in Zhao Yao’s room don’t taste good either. In my opinion, it still depends on the planting method,” Zhao Liping said directly.
“She was just messing around and she took the initiative to fertilize them. You know that fertilized agricultural by-products can’t be that delicious. This product is super lettuce and it was plucked from a tree in the living room. I’ve never seen such amazing crops in my entire life.”
Zhao Yao’s mother said with a smile.
“But if it’s just agricultural by-products, it’s impossible to make it big and strong. In addition, his business has nothing to do with the real estate business of our Zhao family. He can’t take over our group in the future.” Zhao Yao’s father stopped talking, he planned to take a bite of the lettuce.
“Wait, what’s going on? Why isn’t there any seasoning?” Looking at the lettuce on the plate without any seasoning, Zhao Liping was very surprised.
“I tried it. Adding seasoning will affect the taste of this lettuce,” Zhao Yao’s mother said.
“Look at what you’re saying.” Zhao Yao’s father looked at Zhao Yao’s mother helplessly.
However, he had been eating the dishes cooked by his wife for decades.
Therefore, he didn’t say much.
When he picked up the super lettuce, Zhao Liping was surprised to find that this super lettuce didn’t seem to have been prepared in any way but it exuded bursts of fragrance.
Zhao Liping couldn’t help but salivate. Then, he took a bite.
There was a crisp sound.
Then, he was immediately overwhelmed by this extremely crisp taste.
After tasting the refreshing fragrance of the lettuce in his mouth, he suddenly felt that this super lettuce was more delicious than any other vegetables he had bought before.
Not to mention, it didn’t have any fertilizer, so it could maximize the taste of the vegetables themselves.
“Is this the lettuce picked from the tree in our living room?” Zhao Liping was extremely shocked.
“That’s right, so your impression of Ye Heng is much better now. This kid is really good, no wonder our daughter likes him.”
“This new product that he developed, as long as we have two of them, they will probably be enough for our family of three to eat.”
“After all, every time this leaf is picked, it will grow back the next day.” Zhao Yao’s mother was getting happier and happier.
The new product that Ye Heng developed this time could allow housewives, and even some elderly people and children to grow them indoors. The vegetables were completely natural and pollution-free and compared to the products sold outside, they were more reassuring.
Not only Zhao Yao’s mother, but even other housewives had a good impression of Ye Heng.
After hearing these words, Zhao Liping didn’t say anything and kept tasting the lettuce.
Originally, he couldn’t eat much because he was getting older.
But on this day, he ate two big bowls of rice in a row with the lettuce.
However, in Zhao Liping’s heart, he was still sceptical about Ye Heng.
He was the big boss of a top real estate group. He had seen a great deal of life and had a lot of experience in his field.
And it was because of this that he was even more clear that none of the top 10,000 companies in the world was agricultural companies.
So he’ll have to think twice about letting his daughter stay in touch with Ye Heng..
