Chapter 901: Qiongzhou Food and Drink
After a day of experience, Yang Panpan felt completely refreshed and returned to the hotel.
Because many places don't allow filming, she needs to return to the live broadcast to share her feelings.
After opening the live broadcast, the viewer count quickly rose.
Yang Panpan lazily lay on the sofa.
When the viewer count was about right, she began to introduce her experience.
"Hello everyone, I've adjusted and come back."
"If I had to describe my feeling, I only have two words."
"Comfortable."
"I feel my whole body suddenly relaxed."
"My tense body also relaxed."
"After several experiences over a month, I feel I could live twenty years longer."
"And when we went to eat, everyone saw that some restaurants are directly opened in Chinese medicine clinics."
"That side gives you diagnosis, this side gives you dietary therapy."
"Living in Qiongzhou, it feels almost impossible to get sick."
"Eat clean, drink clean, focus on prevention, supplement with dietary therapy, a full Chinese medicine health regimen."
"After the first day's experience, I feel completely different."
"Moreover, these shops are all near the residential area, tightly centered around daily life."
"After arriving in Qiongzhou, we can easily integrate these into our lives."
"If you want to travel, you must come to Qiongzhou to experience it."
Live Broadcast Room
"After watching the live broadcast for half a day today, my impression is that living in Qiongzhou is very relaxed, quite different from ours; I only visited there the year before last, and the changes are truly huge."
"How do you feel they are living? Everyone is very enthusiastic, not the enthusiasm of business but the enthusiasm of life."
"Their smiles are what touched me deeply."
"They're all part of Daxia, and Qiongzhou wasn't like this before; what caused Qiongzhou to change so much?"
"Yang Panpan, do you understand?"
"How enviable, I also want to go."
"There used to be many astronomically priced meals; are there still any now?"
"Still talking about astronomically priced meals—have you not seen their food prices? They're far more expensive than ours."
"A bowl of rice costs ten; do you still think that's okay?"
"Who can tolerate this?"
"And those medicinal meals—none are cheap; only Yang Panpan has money, can we afford them?"
"Indeed, life belongs to the wealthy."
………
………
"Seeing these people's comments, Yang Panpan feels she needs to explain, otherwise it's easy to be misled."
"Don't just randomly guess."
"The rice is ten, but it actually only costs two."
"Medicinal meals are a bit pricey, but you can cook them yourself."
"Ordinary restaurants also have various health soups, and they're not expensive either."
"I already told everyone beforehand, Qiongzhou's food is undergoing a major overhaul."
"Those that don't meet the standards have been driven out, and those that do meet them, Qiongzhou itself has only just begun to produce."
"For example, the original rice is grown on unpolluted land."
"Qiongzhou still has a lot of farmland left fallow, so output is naturally low."
"Low output, naturally expensive."
"Even if output increases, it won't be too cheap, because the yield per mu is also low."
"Think about Wuchang rice—is it cheap?"
"Qiongzhou's plan is to produce all green food, paired with imported food that meets quality standards, to meet Qiongzhou's dietary needs."
"Currently, not many people come to Qiongzhou; once Qiongzhou becomes popular, its agriculture simply can't supply enough—even if you want to eat, you won't be able to."
"Also, Qiongzhou's wage level is currently high."
"Qiongzhou not only attracted many Yang Clan Enterprises, but also many cultural industry companies."
"Plus other companies attracted by Qiongzhou."
"Now Qiongzhou has many high-income earners, with high income."
"It feels expensive only because your local income is low."
"When everyone's income rises, they naturally pursue a better life."
"Moreover, Qiongzhou's large-scale construction has created countless positions."
"Qiongzhou's overall economy has expanded."
"Think about it: you earn money, your rural parents also have jobs and can earn money."
"A family of several earning money isn't just one plus one equals two; their capital accumulation speed increases geometrically."
"This isn't all; now Qiongzhou's land has been fully consolidated—land isn't bought and sold like elsewhere with a hammer, but is incorporated into original shares."
"They can receive dividends every year."
Their final transformation is a collective shareholding model enterprise.
Moreover, the localization of Qiongzhou's food industry excludes giant food enterprises, giving local food enterprises a huge survival space.
Such as oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, tea, wine, and other secondary agricultural products, staying locally can create massive employment.
It can also trace back to the source, ensuring food safety and hygiene.
Some things are not better the bigger they are; they themselves have little technical content, and their monopolistic expansion not only fails to improve product quality but, for profit, continually lowers costs.
Take soy sauce, for example: produced locally, it first saves on transportation costs; second, because there are no storage and transportation issues, naturally it doesn't need any preservatives.
Moreover, vegetables and fruits, following the proximity principle, need not consider long-distance transport or delayed sales, nor require much high-tech effort; vegetables picked in the morning can be set out on the stall the same day.
Food has always been about timeliness.
Local supply can meet demand, so naturally there's no need to resort to all those crooked ways.
Of course, without technology and harsh methods, consumption will increase.
For example, ripe native tomatoes are easily bruised and cannot be stored for long.
Thus packaging costs and losses also arise.
It's a bit more expensive, but it's healthy.
Ask yourselves: do you want to eat all kinds of additives, or do you want to eat somewhat pricier healthy food?
Anyway, Qiongzhou people prefer food that's a bit more expensive but healthy.
Here, everyone prefers to eat rice, white flour, soy sauce and vinegar that can breed bugs.
People also like to press their own oil at oil workshops.
Yang Panpan made the people in the live broadcast room depressed.
Yang Panpan's meaning is, our food safety problems arise because of our big companies?
What she said makes sense; big factories have monopolized the nation's food.
They can't produce everything locally.
Naturally they must consider preservative issues, storage issues, and distributors' profit problems; they also want to cut costs and make big money, so naturally they will think up all sorts of crooked ways.
I remember Yang Lao said that some industries need to be localized.
In the past, sesame oil was truly fragrant; in the past, soy sauce was truly sweet; in the past, vinegar was truly delicious; in the past, the sauce………
No wonder Northeast big sauce is so popular in the Northeast; Northeast big sauce, many people make it themselves, and even if they don't make it themselves, it's locally produced.
Many things being overly commercialized is really not a good thing.
I remember that in the past, drinking milk meant going to the milk station to get it; after all the milk stations disappeared in various places, milk has never been safe.
