Can you believe it? A lychee can buy half a house, and it was sold for a high price of 555,000 yuan, and even many people were willing to raise the market price in order to taste it.
Litchi Assassin
Recently, in a high-end shopping mall in Beijing, lychees were sold for 1049 yuan a catty, but even if such a sky-high price, even if some people flocked to it, even sold out of stock in the mall, in just two days it was in short supply. This inevitably causes people to wonder, what kind of lychee can be sold at such a sky-high price? What is so special about this lychee?
According to Jiupai News, this variety of lychees is relatively small in number and of good quality, and is known as the most expensive lychee in the world. According to buyers, there are less than 20 pieces a pound, but the price has undergone many changes.
One pound is more than 200, more than three hundred, the higher the price, the better the quality and taste.
A netizen who likes to eat lychees bought a small box of lychees at the supermarket, and when he checked out, he found that this small box of lychees had hollowed out one-tenth of his salary. One box sold for 696.28 yuan. Undeterred, he returned to see the price, and the result was clearly written: 1049 yuan a pound. It's a replica of the Ice Cream Assassin.
So what's so special about this lychee?
Essential difference
In fact, this kind of lychee is very different from ordinary lychee.
Its real name is hanging green lychee, this fruit is wrapped in a green circle, from a distance it looks evenly distributed and very conspicuous red and green, which is its most obvious difference. Secondly, its meat is relatively delicious, and there is a slight fragrance in the sweetness. More importantly, the yield of this lychee is very small.
As the saying goes, things are more expensive than rare. Hanging green lychees exist only in guangdong province on the mainland. It is worth noting that there is only one such lychee tree in the world.
In fact, a long time ago, there were many such lychee trees, but because people cut down indiscriminately, this tree was less and less. In the end, this one is left. As the mother tree of green laurel, it has survived for more than 400 years.
It is even rumored that this tree only bears fruit once every ten years. Of course, this is basically impossible. However, it is certain that the mother tree produces very few lychees every year, and Yang Guifei has also eaten them, so it sells at a sky-high price.
According to the report, as of 2016, the planting area of the second and third generations of hanging green by the first generation of hanging green mother trees in Zengcheng "West Garden Hanging Green" through grafting and breeding is only more than 130 mu, and the output is about 1400 kg. Due to the high price, the merchant also specially labeled it as a "light luxury".
Although this is a little different from ordinary lychees, it is still necessary to advise netizens that everyone should consume rationally when buying goods, and do not blindly follow the trend.
