It is interpreted differently these days.
A synonym for ‘slow life’.
〈 Of course it’s difficult. But is it worth it? …〉
〈 This is all money. I think my annual income is around 100 million won.〉
〈City life is so dreadful. I was so devastated that I felt like I wasn’t myself.〉
If you’re a city person, you can’t help but feel it.
Life is so dreadful!
I want to take my time.
I want to enjoy life.
Like people in America or Europe.

I’m really jealous…
It looks so cool living in a picturesque house while tending to a pretty garden
Being self-sufficient without much greed
Sometimes, I feel happy every day just by digging up vegetables and mushrooms in the mountains behind, mixing them with sesame oil, and eating them.

│It looks more luxurious than the pine mushrooms sold for 200,000 won at my local department store. How about it?

It satisfies that condition.
It shows a leisurely life.
Countryside.
In a quiet neighborhood, live surrounded by nature and live through the years and new months.

─Do you guys eat roasted sweet potatoes on firewood?
─Returning to farming is the best choice as long as you settle down well
─Returning to farming requires a lot of thought
─Look at those who want to return to farming
.
.
.
There are realistic barriers.
Just because you live in the countryside doesn’t mean you won’t have financial problems.
─Look at those who want to return to farming
At least 2~1 billion is needed
Is it like a ball?
Building 2~3 greenhouses
When installing smart farm facilities
Losing a few hundred million won in an instant
What if you buy a house, buy an appliance, buy a car, etc.?
└That’s the minimum too haha
└If you only have money problems, it’s that much, but in actual life, it’s even more difficult…
└No, fuck that, I’d buy a house in the metropolitan area.
└Don’t scare me, I can’t die alone
Rather, it costs a lot.
You need to prepare a house and a living base from the beginning.
Things we take for granted in the city.
This is not given in the countryside.
─Returning to farming requires a lot of thought
Money is also money
Opportunity cost cannot be ignored…
What if things don’t go well after going to the countryside?
My personal career will be ruined to the level of having served in the military twice
└ㅎㅎㄷㄷㄷ
└It would be nice if my career was successful. If a farmer takes out a loan, he will have to farm for the rest of his life and not have another job. LOL
└Only people who really want to farm go
└The loan interest rate is that low, right?
You have to give up your existing life.
It is not something you can simply try.
Such risks.
Even taking this into account, it can be an attractive option.
─Returning to farming is the best choice as long as you settle down well
Provides 1 million won per month for 3 years
Give 10 million for housing-related expenses
If it is for agricultural purposes, 3 billion won will be given at low interest
This is government-led support, and there is also support at each province, county, and township level.
Once you settle in
It is possible to make a stable living even at the age when others retire
└ㅇㅇ Finding a place is the problem
└If you live well in rural areas, you will be good for life
└Even if you graduate from a prestigious university and get a job at a large company, you will be forced to retire after the age of 50. In that case, it is better to live in the countryside.
└Housing prices in Seoul are expensive these days
Life in the city is hard.
Life in the countryside looks great.
The number of people wishing to return to farming is increasing.
It is blocked by a realistic barrier.
An opportunity has come to clear that up.

±——————————————–
Support policy.
There are many things the government does.
Local governments have also opened their doors.
It just didn’t meet the expectations of young people.
It provides unprecedented benefits beyond what you want.
─The recruitment of young farmers in the food market is great
[Food Market homepage announcement capture. Jpg]
In an already built smart farm
All the farmer has to do is go in and work
Providing food, clothing, and shelter
It is said that there are also convenience facilities (convenience store, coin laundromat, etc.)
└Are you MZ, the planner?
└The deposit will be refunded later, so it’s just a piece of cake
└It would be convenient if they took care of all the farmland, facility management, and purchase.
└A company is not a charity and does something like that?
So unbelievable.
It is an issue in various ways among people who have returned to farming.
Will you really do it?
Isn’t it just hype?
It puts an end to those worries.
─I am a shareholder of Food Market
Food market aspiration project is local development
To me, it seems like they are running a pilot project at a loss
Because I don’t know what will happen later
This kind of thing needs to be sucked in from the beginning
└It’s possible because it’s a food market
└The CEO there is one of the richest people in Korea?
└Even if it’s not good, you can get your deposit back, so there won’t be any loss
└The accommodation is shit. If you can find it, you should post it on the Blue House bulletin board.
Food market.
It has become a large corporation that no Korean can recognize.
It symbolizes trust.
Business expansion is gaining momentum.
* * *
Corporate farming.
In my mind, this is the goal I want to achieve as the top priority.
‘The problem is that it’s not realistic.’
It just helped me do business.
It did not enable corporate farming.
That pun applies.
Because various regulations are complicatedly intertwined.
“Thank you to everyone who participated in Food Market’s first youth return to farming. For those of you who did not know, let me briefly explain. It is a system in which each person who returns to farming signs a contract with Food Market and becomes an individual farmer.”
You have to take a detour.
The representative method is to sign a contract with an individual farmer.
‘Like Haram.’
Korea’s leading broiler company.
Even though it is not a corporate farm, it dominates the raw chicken market.
How?
This is because numerous chicken farmers across the country rely on trading with haram for their livelihood.
“Each farmer who has signed such a contract can grow the crops we request in the smart farm we rent.”
“Can’t I grow something else?!”
“Yes, no.”
” Haha!””
The period can be as short as a few years or as long as several decades.
This is enough time for a cartel to form.
‘New businesses cannot step in.’
This is the reason for price fixing on Heukuheonnal.
They can move the market as they wish.
The cartel.
There is only one way to destroy it.
We are creating farms to contract from zero.
“It may be frustrating, but we have our reasons. You’ve heard of economies of scale, right? I think everyone here knows that…”
It is an aggressive investment for him.
Recruiting young farmers through donations.
‘Because numbers are important.’
Are you going to take down our cartel?
It is as obvious as seeing a backlash.
It can be kept in check.
It’s also a headache legally.
Because I know that.
“Oh!”
“The scale is big.”
“What you mean is that what we farm is supplied to the food market?”
Hostage.
They are holding their livelihood and future hostage.
Public opinion can be manipulated when necessary.
‘If you don’t want to see young farmers losing their jobs as a group, you should take care of it yourself.’
About 1,000 people are gathered in the main auditorium.
Give a speech disguised as an explanation in front of them.
“The agricultural and livestock products you have worked hard to produce will become valuable food for food market customers. Furthermore, they will feed the people of Korea and become the flesh and blood that supports the economy!”
Sense of purpose.
This is an important part.
Most of the people gathered here.
‘I just came because I wanted to live an easy life.’
The city is too difficult.
Countryside nature is pretty.
He knew that a leisurely life was waiting for him.
There may be some people who aim to become farmers professionally, but more than 90% do not.
I have run away from reality.
Clap! Mate!
Match! Match! Match! Match! Mate!
Give them a place to work.
It gives a reason to work.
It’s half a charity project.
“Wow, that’s amazing.”
“There’s a real reason it’s famous.”
“Can I see the food, clothing, shelter and amenities provided?!”
On a huge scale.
On the screen in the auditorium, you can see the accommodations where the returning farmers will live.
Shouts are heard from all over.
The response from the participants was very enthusiastic.
‘Because it’s more than they want.’
Spend a slow life in a place like a pension.
It satisfies about 90% of the requirements.
Modular homes.
It is a prefabricated building based on a container, but its exterior is outstanding.
“Each farmer will live in a modular home that we provide. The surrounding land is also owned by our food market, so it is okay to decorate a simple garden. And meals are served at a set time in a building with a convenience store and laundry. It will be provided every time.”
Food, clothing and shelter are provided.
It is not much different from the existing life.
This is the life that city residents want to return to farming.
Waaaaa~!!
Match! Match! Match! Match! Mate!
It is worthy of the outpouring of support.
I am very excited about life in the countryside.
‘If you create a workplace that is like heaven.’
Even if I don’t want to lose, I fight desperately.
Training thousands of troops for the food market.
