American Ranch

Chapter 16 Opening a Restaurant 【Please recommend, bookmark】

The charcoal made of fir wood, the charcoal is bright red, and the wild boar on it is dripping with oil and falling into the charcoal, and white smoke rises.

The simpler the better, everyone sits around eating barbecue and drinking beer...

Jennifer didn't look like a goddess, but looked cute, and she was next to Bai Xiaoou... The corner of Bai Xiaoou's mouth chuckled, and his dirty hand wiped Jennifer's face lightly, leaving a black mark...

This scene is very much like a movie scene without lines.

Chen Mo suddenly felt a little envious of Bai Xiaoou, but he was more happy for his friends... Maybe, this is what love should be like.

After eating and drinking enough, Athor got drunk and rode on his horse, calling his two sheepdogs to drive the sheep.Chen Mo and the others went to pack some dry grass and returned to the small valley...

In the quiet valley, all you can hear are the sounds of nature.

Chickie takes a leisurely walk around the house, getting lost.

Chen Mo took Bai Xiaoou and the others to clean up the utility room, lay dry pasture, and then found barbed wire and small wood to make a fence, and used feed to attract the chicks...

Bai Xiaoou stretched lazily: "This kind of life is really enviable."

Chen Mo went to the lake, picked up the tiles on the ground and threw them into the water: "You won't be envious if you live here for ten days and half a month. Zhang, do you think I opened a food therapy center in Billings?" What’s wrong? Do Chinese food therapy, mainly stew bone soup, gnaw bone meat, put ginseng in the soup. You can also barbecue..."

"One side nourishes another side. Different cultures and different regions lead to different eating habits of people in different places... If purely Chinese food therapy, it may attract some people to patronize at the beginning, but later..." Zhang Kun shrugged: "Like The bone soup eaten today may not taste delicious to Camelby and the others."

"No, the bone soup is delicious. Especially with the addition of ginseng, it has a unique taste of Chinese herbal medicine. And after drinking the soup, I feel warm in my stomach. It is still warm and very comfortable." Jennifer said seriously: " If there was a restaurant that wasn't too expensive, I think I'd go there more often."

"You really think it's delicious?" Bai Xiaoou looked at Jennifer.

"real."

Bai Xiaoou has known Jennifer for several months, and only recently started a formal relationship.He has also dated a lot of foreign girls, and he has come into contact with many traditional Americans, and he is most aware of the surprises of Chinese and American diets...

"Well, if it's you... How much money can you accept for a meal?"

"Food with ginseng, one meal... $50 is acceptable. Per person..."

Montana is not expensive.

In the relatively high-end restaurants in Montana, that is, restaurants with chefs, the per capita consumption is between US$40 and US$65.This is a high-consumption restaurant...

Medium-sized restaurants, per capita consumption of 15 US dollars - 25 US dollars.

Consumption in the United States cannot be calculated according to the exchange rate between the US dollar and RMB.What is consumed here is US dollars, and what is earned is also US dollars.Like Alsoo and Mary, their monthly salary is [-] U.S. dollars, which belongs to the lower-middle income in Montana, and occasionally going to mid-level restaurants will not cause a particularly heavy burden.But usually don't head to fine dining restaurants...

The per capita consumption of 50 US dollars belongs to a high-end restaurant.

The per capita consumption of 50 US dollars cannot be only one dish, and it must be matched with other foods, at least to fill the stomach.

Bai Xiaoou scratched his head, shook his head, looked at Chen Mo and asked, "How much is wet ginseng per kilogram?"

Chen Mo has information about ginseng from Snow Mountain Ranch, as well as an offer from someone who wanted to buy this batch of ginseng...

Seven-year-old wet ginseng is quoted at US$30 per kilogram, which is already a very high price.

The main reason is that the environment, climate, and soil of the Snow Mountain Ranch are very suitable for growing ginseng, and the ginseng grown is also very good.

There is not much land suitable for growing ginseng in Montana, and it is mainly concentrated in the western mountains.The eastern plains are not suitable for growing ginseng...

The ginseng in Xueshan Ranch is growing very well, and the price of 30 US dollars per kilogram is very high, but the previous rancher was obviously unwilling to sell it, and planned to raise it for a few more years and sell it at a high price, but it was cheaper than Chen Mo.

Unsold ginseng is no different from white radish. It is not yet known when Sino-US trade will normalize.

Ginseng from pastures cannot be exported to China, and only ginseng exported to China can be sold at a high price.In America and Europe, the market share of ginseng is not large.Other countries in Asia, such as Bangziguo, a big ginseng consumer country, are also big ginseng production countries, and they don’t accept high-priced ginseng from outside...

If you want to sell ginseng at a high price in the United States, you have to find a way to add value to ginseng. .

"The price for 7-year-old ginseng is 30 yuan per kilogram, new ginseng."

"A fresh ginseng weighs a lot, the average weight." Bai Xiaoou asked as if he sensed a business opportunity.

"The weight of American ginseng is about 70-110 grams. American ginseng over 110 grams can be selected separately and packaged as high-quality goods. Baichangshan ginseng is smaller, and the 7-year-old is too small, usually no more than 70 grams, and dried in the sun. The latter is even smaller. The one kilogram of American ginseng I gave you that time is the best of the best, and it is estimated that it is difficult to find a second one in a thousand hectare forest."

Bai Xiaoou rubbed his chin: "This matter is very interesting."

Bai Xiaoou pulled Chen Mo and Zhang Kun aside: "So, the cost price of a ginseng is about 3 dollars..."

"That's seven-year-old American ginseng. Eight-year-old American ginseng costs 5-10 yuan per kilogram." Chen Mo muttered.

"The cost of that ginseng is only 4 yuan." Bai Xiaoou made a weird expression, even if he didn't know much about ginseng market, he would think ginseng was very expensive...

"The idea of ​​a food therapy center is very good, maybe it's really messed up... I want to participate in it, how about it?"

"no problem."

Chen Mo is very short of money now, how to sell ginseng to get back the funds is something Chen Mo urgently wants to do.

Can't keep thinking about the gold in the space.Whether in China or the United States, selling a small amount of gold is okay, but a large amount is troublesome.Unless there is a gold mine of its own...but that would have to pay income tax, which is not worthwhile.

Chen Mo never thought about how much money he could have.The gold in the space, unless it is urgently needed, Chen Mo doesn't plan to touch it anymore.It won't depreciate much if you keep it...

If you can make money legitimately, that is a happy life, and it is best not to worry about it.

"I... I also want to participate in a share." Zhang Kun said.

"No problem, the three brothers have money to earn together." Chen Mo said and stretched out his hand, Bai Xiaoou also smiled and stretched out his hand to press the back of Chen Mo's hand, and then Zhang Kun...

A person's ability is limited, brothers should help each other.But if we mess up, everyone can bear it together...

"Let's say it first, business may succeed or fail. If it is messed up, everyone can't complain to each other. If it succeeds, everyone should not create barriers because of issues such as interests." Bai Xiaoou held Chen Mo's shoulder with one hand, and pressed it with the other. Holding Zhang Kun's shoulder: "I reckon to invest in a restaurant with a high grade. The starting capital is 10 U.S. dollars, and then a loan of 5 U.S. dollars is required. If something goes wrong, everyone will lose money according to the shares they subscribed... Restaurant Mainly ginseng, ginseng is purchased from you, 40 dollars a kilogram. This business is done, and with word of mouth, the purchase price can be increased appropriately..."

Bai Xiaoou talked a lot.

Among the three brothers, Bai Xiaoou has management experience and has done great things... Whatever he says, Chen Mo and the others just follow suit.

For 40kg of American ginseng under the forest, the price is not low.Of course, it is an American ginseng of ordinary quality. If there is an American ginseng with a particularly good quality, it can be packaged and sold in restaurants, or sold online...
