Qin Lin no longer paid attention to the bad things happening in the traditional Chinese medicine family.
Next, he himself was very busy with matters with Zhao Moqing.
Uncle Shui Gen has already chosen a day to accept the lottery. Before that, he took his mother back to his old house. Before getting engaged and accepting the lottery, he had to pay homage to his ancestors.
This is their custom here.
Later, when the day came to receive the lottery, Zhao Moqing also left the situation and temporarily separated from him and returned to the Zhao family.
When it was time to accept the gift, the name, price and betrothal gift of the jewelry on the betrothal gift list were all changed to ordinary hardware and the normal 88888 betrothal gift, which boded well.
This is what the couple Chen Xiao and Zhao Xianhong requested.
When the couple discussed it for the first time, they were really shocked by the jade jewelry on the gift list.
A 30 million bracelet will make the Zhao family steal the show.
But the couple didn't want to be in the limelight and let their relatives, friends, and neighbors know about it. If word spread, it might disturb their normal life.
Therefore, just let Qin Lin give the things to Mo Qing in private, and just write another copy on the list for outsiders to see.
Mother-in-law and father-in-law had requests, and Qin Lin naturally complied with them.
After receiving the lottery, there are processes such as welcoming guests, serving tea, introducing, changing names, wearing rings, and setting a wedding date.
Moreover, these procedures were not carried out on the same day. First, the man had to come to the door, and then the woman came to the door. It took half a month to complete the tedious process.
This is a different experience for Qin Lin and Zhao Moqing.
Especially Zhao Moqing enjoyed it even more.
It seemed like she and Qin Lin were falling in love again.
It took half a month to complete all the necessary engagement procedures, and finally the wedding date was set.
According to the wishes of both parents, Zhao Moqing is pregnant, and they hope that the young couple can get the wedding done as soon as possible.
However, Zhao Moqing had her own ideas on this matter. She wanted to schedule the wedding in August next year, because that time was the fifth anniversary of her relationship with Qin Lin.
"First Evolution"
Women sometimes are always obsessed with this special day.
Qin Lin naturally agreed to his wife's request.
Lin Fen, Chen Xiao, and Zhao Xianhong all became parents for the happiness of the young couple. They had strong wishes, so they could only respect Zhao Moqing's choice.
Therefore, after half a month of separation, Zhao Moqing moved back to the manor, which made Qin Lin feel that a little farewell was better than a newlywed.
…
Qinglin Manor.
Qin Lin sat on his office chair, looked at the light screen in his mind again, and controlled the game character to go to the Lake Mine.
During this time, he also took the time to dig out all the open layers of the Spring Mine.
This time, the Quanzhi Mine has been opened to the 35th floor.
It's a pity that in the subsequent layers, apart from ordinary ores, special soil, spring water from the earth, and ordinary jade, nothing special was dug out.
Entering the Lake Mine, Qin Lin controlled the game character and started digging.
Last time the Lake Mine was excavated to the 10th floor, this time it went directly to the 11th floor.
But luck still seems to be bad. After digging the 11th floor, the harvest of gold, silver and copper mines was as usual.
Then control the game character to enter the 12th floor.
This time, after digging half a layer, there was an unexpected system prompt:
[Congratulations on digging and getting a sunken treasure chest! 】
In the game screen, a treasure chest icon appears under the game character's feet, and is then put into the backpack.
This lake mine is backed by the sea, and the things that can be mined seem to be more diverse.
Looking at the shipwreck treasure chest in the backpack, a message appeared:
[The treasure chest carried by the sunken ship in the sea may bring unexpected surprises when opened...]
When Qin Lin saw this prompt, he directly controlled the game character to open the sunken treasure chest, and the system prompt appeared again:
[Congratulations on opening a shipwreck treasure chest and receiving 10 Columbus gold coins and 1 unknown painting! 】
Qin Lin was stunned when he saw this information.
The gold coin is not surprising, but if the words Columbus are added, then the gold coin will be different.
Columbus is a famous navigator. His voyages had a huge impact on the world. This gold coin is related to Columbus, and it is an antique gold coin.
Then this unknown painting may also be an antique.
Qin Lin curiously clicked on the unknown painting, revealing a special picture of sunflowers in the sea, which was a bit abstract and a bit science fiction.
There is also Vi's artist name in the lower right corner of the painting.
I just don’t know which artist this Vi is, and I don’t know if it’s a real person or just made up by the game planner.
Qin Lin turned on the computer, entered the name Vi, and was a little surprised to see the content that popped up.
van gogh!
This turned out to be the signature of Van Gogh's work.
There should be very few people who don’t know about Van Gogh. There are texts about Van Gogh in school textbooks.
Moreover, Van Gogh's paintings are now very valuable, and they are also among the most collectible paintings. The auction price can exceed 100 million.
I just don’t know what’s going on with this painting.
Qin Lin immediately locked the door of the office, an idea entered the game, and then he saw the painting.
In reality, this painting looks a bit old and has a sense of history.
At the same time, he also saw the note information:
[Painting of Sunflowers in the Sea: Famous Painting! 】
[This is an abstract science fiction painting by the famous painter Van Gogh. It is rumored that this painting was acquired by a captain, a descendant of Columbus. Later, the ship was attacked by pirates and the painting disappeared completely! 】
Seeing this remark, it seems that this is a painting by Van Gogh.
Qin Lin subconsciously quit the game and logged on to the computer to search for information. He was actually able to find a few words about this painting online.
This is somewhat surprising!
The painting is from a game, so it shouldn't be authentic in reality, right?
In other words, this painting does exist in reality, and it really sank with the ship, because the special characteristics of the system were revealed again?
When Qin Lin was thinking about it, his cell phone rang. It was Qin Long calling.
He pressed answer and heard Qin Lin say: "Qin Lin, some of the new varieties of tomatoes are ripe. Do you want to come over and take a look?"
"Mature?" Qin Lin was a little surprised.
This tomato is not a game seed, but a genetically mutated ordinary seed in reality.
When the tomato gene mutation was first discovered, Brother Li's record was that the growth time was shortened a lot. Now it seems that the growth time of tomatoes with this gene mutation is shorter than expected.
Qin Lin responded.
This quality 1 tomato is related to the upgrade of Qinglin's tomato sauce, so he naturally wants to take a look.
After hanging up the phone, he left the manor and drove to Qin Long's tomato plantation.
When they arrived at the plantation, Qin Long had already been waiting there with his girlfriend Shanshan. The relationship between the two was obviously very stable now.
Shanshan is also willing to accompany Qin Long to work hard in the tomato plantation. At least compared to her ex-boyfriend who still refuses to give up fishing in the reservoir, Qin Long can really make her feel at ease.
"Qin Lin!" Qin Long saw Qin Lin and stepped forward immediately.
Shanshan also said hello.
Qin Lin responded to the greeting and said: "Brother Long, take me to see tomatoes."
"Follow me." Qin Long led Qin Lin into the plantation, and soon they arrived at a vast and dense tomato planting field.
Compared with ordinary tomatoes, the tomato plant in front of me has thicker branches and taller and denser plants.
Among the dense plants, there were indeed some tomatoes that turned red and ripened.
Moreover, due to genetic mutations, these quality 1 tomatoes are significantly larger than ordinary tomatoes and have rounder skins.
Qin Long explained: "In another week or so, these tomatoes will all be ripe."
"Brother Long, help me pick some tomatoes. I'll take them back first." Qin Lin ordered Qin Long.
Qin Long nodded, found a bag, picked a batch of tomatoes and handed them to Qin Lin.
Qin Lin chatted with Qin Long for a while, and then returned to the manor with those tomatoes. When he got to the office, he brought these tomatoes into the game and saw the note information:
[Tomato: Quality 1]
[This is a tomato with special qualities: taste +1, deliciousness +1, appetite promotion +1, diuresis +1, production of body fluids and quenching thirst +1! 】
Tomatoes replanted with genetic mutations still maintain their original attributes.
Now let’s look at the properties of ketchup made with these quality 1 tomatoes.
Thinking about it, Qin Lin took these Quality 1 tomatoes out of the game again, then called Deng Guang and told him about the Quality 1 tomatoes, and went directly to the factory park of Qinglin Company.
After parking the car in the parking lot of the factory park, Deng Guang was already waiting.
"Director Qin! Where are the tomatoes?" Deng Guang stepped forward.
Qin Lin handed over the tomatoes and asked, "Is the production line ready?"
Qin Long nodded and said: "There happens to be a new production line that has been debugged and can be used for production first."
Qin Lin followed Qin Long into a factory and arrived in front of a production line. Then Deng Guang called in a person who was training employees.
"Director Qin, Mr. Deng, what are your orders?" The man said respectfully to the two of them as soon as he came closer.
Qin Lin has a good memory and has some impressions of this person. He should be one of the first employees left in the small factory, and he seems to be a manager now.
Deng Guang handed the bag of tomatoes to the other party and ordered: "Use this bag of tomatoes to produce ketchup."
"Okay, Mr. Deng!" the man responded, took the tomatoes to the production line and ordered people to produce them.
As the production line machine started, those quality 1 tomatoes were sent to the production line and production began.
Soon after, jars of quality 1 Qinglin tomato sauce were produced.
After the ketchup cooled down, the man from before brought a jar to Deng Guang and Qin Lin.
Deng Guang took the ketchup, opened it, wiped a little out and put it in his mouth to taste.
The next moment, his eyes lit up and he said: "Director Qin, after using the new variety of tomatoes, the taste of this tomato sauce has become better, and it has been greatly improved."
Qin Lin also took the tomato sauce and spread a little to taste.
He had eaten quality 1 tomato sauce made from ordinary tomatoes before, so he could tell the difference right away. This tomato sauce made with quality 1 tomatoes really tasted much more delicious. He even tasted it and felt like eating it. Thoughts of things.
He knew that this must be an appetite-promoting property, and the effect seemed to be very strong.
"Pack all these ketchups for me. I want to take them back." Qin Lin also ordered the man, who responded respectfully and hurried to prepare.
Soon after, Qin Lin returned to the manor office with those Qinglin ketchup, locked the door, and then brought the ketchup into the game and saw the attribute information of these ketchups:
[Qinglin Tomato Sauce: Quality 2]
[This is a sweet and sour tomato sauce made with a special secret recipe. It tastes great. It has texture +2, deliciousness +2, appetite promotion +2, diuresis +1, and thirst quenching +1! 】
…
[Qinglin Tomato Sauce: Quality 2]
…
[Qinglin Tomato Sauce: Quality 2]
All tomato sauces are of quality 2, and the properties of taste, deliciousness, and appetite promotion have all become +2. Moreover, the new tomato sauce still retains the properties of quality 1 tomato sauce of diuresis +1 and thirst quenching +1. .
This means that this tomato sauce still has some medicinal value, and you can apply for relevant certificates.
This is very beneficial for the promotion of ketchup.
After all, children are easily afraid of heat, and if they like to eat caloric foods, their urine will be yellow and uncomfortable. This diuretic property is helpful.
Moreover, children are prone to indigestion, and the properties of producing fluid and relieving cough can make the stomach and intestines more comfortable.
With this quality 2 tomato sauce, Qinglin tomato sauce can completely dominate the tomato sauce market this year.
Qin Lin felt relieved after reading the notes about ketchup, and then quit the game.
But the next day, Deng Guang came to the door early in the morning, with a look of astonishment on his face: "Director Qin, I have something to report to you!"
"What's wrong?" Qin Lin looked at Deng Guang's strange look and asked.
Deng Guang hurriedly took out his mobile phone, clicked on a video and handed it to him: "Qin Lin, this is the new news released by Heinz of Stars and Stripes early in the morning."
Qin Lin took the phone and looked at it doubtfully.
Heinz is the largest ketchup company in Stars and Stripes and the most powerful company among the top ten ketchup brands. It also ranks first among the top ten brands in terms of sales volume.
But even so, Heinz ketchup faced Qinglin ketchup and was gradually devoured the market like other ketchups.
"Heinz ketchup has been upgraded, and new products will be launched soon!" 》
Qin Lin frowned slightly when he saw this video.
The market for these brands of ketchup, which has been crushed by Qinglin ketchup, is constantly shrinking. You should know the taste of Qinglin ketchup, and you must be confident in yourself if you are suddenly launching a new product.
It's been more than a year, maybe the other party has cracked the recipe of Qinglin's tomato sauce.
Thinking of this, Qin Lin sighed a little. This is the bad part of the food formula, it is too easy to crack.
Qin Lin hurriedly asked Deng Guang: "Does Qinglin Food Company have the money to build its own laboratory now?"
Deng Guang nodded and said, "Well, there is no problem in building another laboratory without affecting normal development."
Qin Lin said directly: "The laboratory plan must be built as soon as possible, and then a team will be recruited to study the diversity of ketchup and beverages."
They can already make quality 2 tomato sauce. Even if the previous formula is cracked, it will be useless. Quality 1 tomatoes are not formulas, but varieties, which are not that easy to cultivate.
But even so, after occupying the market with Quality 2 tomato sauce, the laboratory must keep up. Only by continuous research and continuous innovation can we stay ahead.
…
Hum Ketchup is a star-striped brand that has been popular for 150 years. It has occupied the largest ketchup market ever since. Global sales have now reached 650 million bottles, and the number of small packets of dipping sauce has reached 11 billion worldwide. Bao can be said to be very powerful.
It is self-evident which country provides most of these sales. After all, this country's population is the largest market in the world.
Heinz ketchup even occupies 16% of the market share in this market. This is because the emergence of Qinglin ketchup has reduced the market share of Heinz ketchup.
At Heinz's domestic agency sales company, the person in charge, Lu De, was conducting a video conference with several top domestic managers.
Lu De reported to the middle-aged white man in the video with a respectful face: "Mr. Heinz, according to the information passed by the head office, we have created a new ketchup."
Heinz, this is a surname in the Star-Spangled Kingdom. The founder of Heinz is Heinz Heinz. The current middle-aged white man is Jack Heinz, who is also the grandson of Heinz Heinz.
"How do you compare with that Qinglin tomato sauce?" Hengli-Heng asked immediately.
Over the years, as the only product that has unscrupulously seized the market from Heinz, they naturally want to regain this market share.
Now that we have cracked the other party's formula and made a new tomato sauce by replacing the ingredients that do not affect the taste, we will not be polite to Qinglin's tomato sauce. It is time to take back the market share from the other party and tell us Who is the industry leader on the other side?
Moreover, it is not only necessary to regain market share, but also to teach the other party a lesson.
"Mr. Heinz, the taste is not inferior to the comparison. We have started publicity now, and with other preparations, it will be officially launched in 10 days." Lu De hurriedly replied: "Now at this same level, the comparison is It’s not about product quality, it’s about business methods, and the other party will pay the price.”
"Yeah!" Jack Heinz was very satisfied with the result, and then said, "I heard that Hans Ketchup has also cracked the formula and has its own recipe. I will contact them and we can cooperate with each other."
Hans ketchup, another major ketchup brand in Stars and Stripes, is also one of the top ten ketchup brands in China.
Now that two Stars and Stripes ketchup brands have cracked Qinglin ketchup one after another, Jack Heinz’s purpose is self-evident. It is obvious that they want to join forces to suppress Qinglin ketchup.
As long as Qinglin ketchup is surrounded and suppressed, before other ketchup brands crack the formula, they will not only regain the market share they lost, but also occupy a larger market than before.
As for the encirclement and suppression of Qinglin Tomato Sauce, Jack Heinz is not worried. After all, the other party is a new company that has just been established for more than a year, and its capital base cannot compare with theirs.
Just relying on capital to fight a price war can bring down Qinglin Tomato Sauce and kill it.
Just so confident.
