Chapter 465 The fake daughter withdraws from the circle to farm (48)
When Xu Yin returned home, she saw Xu's mother already busy in the kitchen.
She blow-dried her hair, gave it a refreshing twist, and went into the kitchen to help.
"Mom, these two grass carps are quite big. Leave them to me. I'll make Wanzhou grilled fish for you to try."
"Okay." Feng Cuiqin said with a smile, "Your cousin went to the reservoir to fish."
"Cousin has come?"
"Come here for a while, put down the fish and go home to pick up your sister-in-law and nephew."
The mother and daughter were chatting in the kitchen while preparing dishes for tonight's Mid-Autumn Festival family banquet.
Outside, the village chief walked to her house with a frown on his face and complained to Grandpa Xu who was weaving bamboo strips under the eaves:
"Recently, all those who were selected to sell bamboo weavings were kicked back, saying that as long as we leave Qingzhu Village, they will not accept them. Those buyers originally offered low prices, but fortunately they can sell them for a few dollars. Now the bamboo sieves It was reduced to five yuan and no one took it. When I asked them the reason, they couldn't explain it. They just said that someone from above paid them to do this. Lao Xu, you said that our village didn't offend anyone, how could it be spread? What happened to this kind of thing..."
Grandpa Xu was also puzzled: "Could other villages be grabbing business?"
"That's impossible! We've already reduced it to five yuan. Is it possible that there are still villages that don't charge us but still give us subsidies?"
"Who could that be? I would rather pay the buyer than let our village's bamboo products be sold..." Grandpa Xu couldn't figure out the reason for a while and asked the village chief, "Have you ever asked about the money?" Who asked them to do this?"
"I just asked around. I heard that a big shot from Haicheng came here a few days ago. But our village doesn't even have any relatives from Haicheng. How can we offend him? It's really troublesome..."
Upon hearing that he was a big shot from "Haicheng", Grandpa Xu and Dad Xu looked at each other.
Are they Yueyue's biological parents?
Father Xu put down the bamboo knitting in his hand, stood up, went to the kitchen, and told his daughter about the situation in a low voice.
Xu Yin immediately thought of the phone call from Mrs. Xu that night. Could it be that she hung up on her, made her angry, and then used her money power to block her home?
No! Not just my own home, but the entire Qingzhu Village.
Xu Yin wondered: If it is really the Xu family in Haicheng, what is the purpose of doing this? To make everyone in Qingzhu Village resent herself for this?
Or do you just want to stop the sale of bamboo products in your own home? Do you want to make life difficult for the old Xu family? Are you worried that other villagers will help, and simply cut off the livelihood of the villagers?
No matter what the reason is, it is true that Qingzhu Village’s recent bamboo weaving products have been ignored.
After thinking about it, Xu Yin suggested that the village chief open an online store in the name of Qingzhu Village.
"The market for ordinary bamboo weaving products is actually very large nationwide. Once it is started, the sales volume will be much larger than that of high-quality products like mine. The reason why I chose bamboo weavings with good quality and distinctive features for consignment in my online store , because we are too busy. If we set up a bamboo weaving shop in the name of Qingzhu Village and everyone participates in the division of labor and cooperation, it would actually be more convenient than picking out and selling."
Of course the village chief was interested when he heard it.
"Yinyin, what exactly do you do with the online store you mentioned? I'm worried that old guys like us won't be able to learn it!"
Xu Yin thought for a while and said: "Otherwise, everyone can sign up first and see who is interested. After selecting suitable candidates, I will train them. Since there is no market for them, don't select them and sell them. Save some energy. .We sell everything online! There may not be any orders at the beginning, but don’t be discouraged. As long as the quality is good, things will definitely improve. Look at my home, I only expected one order in ten days and a half, and now I have twenty or thirty orders every day. I have placed hundreds of orders. That’s because my bamboo weavings are not ordinary bamboo weavings. Many of them can be used as ornaments, and the price is much more expensive than ordinary bamboo weavings.”
The village chief was moved by what he heard and nodded repeatedly: "Okay, okay, I'll go back and convene a meeting with everyone, and select someone to come and learn how to do online business from you."
"Okay! I've been at home every day lately, and when I'm not at home, I'm also in the mountains. Just call me."
The village chief is also a practical person. After leaving Xu Yin's house, he went to the village committee to convene a meeting of village cadres. When everyone heard that an online store was opened in the name of the village collective, they all found it very novel.
"Is this just like the township and village enterprises in the early 1980s? But now they are called online stores?"
"That's right! If the online store's business is good, it is indeed better than picking out and selling."
"I see that many shops in the town have their own online stores. Can we open one without a shop?"
"Yinyin said it can, then it can. I haven't seen her online store business doing very well. I heard from Wei Guo that he earned 8,000 yuan last month!"
"Really? Eight thousand for Weiguo alone? Or for his whole family?"
"He is alone. There must be a lot of old man Xu, and his wife Wei Guo. It is said that the dried bamboo shoots and dried vegetables are sold for thousands of pieces. Their monthly income must be more than 10,000 yuan."
"Wow--"
When they heard that Xu Weiguo's monthly income exceeded 10,000 yuan, all the village officials were extremely envious.
What they don't know is that whether it's the eight thousand announced by Xu Weiguo or the thousand yuan by Feng Cuiqin, they are only a small part of their real income.
Xu Weiguo earned 38,000 yuan last month from just one bamboo painting "Eight Horses".
The winter bamboo shoots shaved by Feng Cuiqin and the chicken coriander fried in oil were also sold for a small 20,000 yuan.
Not counting the income from B&Bs and Anomatis, light mountain goods and bamboo weaving, the old Xu family achieved a monthly income of 50,000. This amount was the Xu family's entire income last year.
That's why Xu Weiguo couldn't help but murmur, not wanting to offend anyone who would be unhappy! Fortunately, he still knew what was appropriate and only said a fraction of the words.
Even this makes the village cadres extremely envious.
By drying vegetables and braiding bamboo strips at home, you can earn tens of thousands of yuan without traveling anywhere.
"Village chief, let's do it like this! It's just an online store. It doesn't need a storefront or employees, and it doesn't need to be sold out. It saves money and trouble. It's idle anyway. Whatever we need to do, just say
talk!"
Village cadres unanimously passed the resolution to open an online store in Qingzhu Village.
The village chief turned on the radio, and the whole village shouted: "Whoever knows computers and wants to find something to do, please come to the village committee and report!"
Played it three times in a row.
After the Mid-Autumn Festival, the village chief brought Xu Yin here.
Basically, they are girls and boys who have graduated from junior high school and are unemployed at home but have not yet gone out to find a job.
"It won't be too busy in the early stage, just two people are enough. When the order volume increases in the future, you can recruit more if you are too busy."
At Xu Yin's suggestion, we first recruited two people. Based on their personalities, we assigned them the following tasks:
The girl is attentive and patient, and is responsible for online: customer service, delivery and daily maintenance of the online store;
The young man is very strong and not afraid of trouble. He is responsible for the offline work: checking and accepting the bamboo products selected by each shop, numbering them, registering them, and packaging them before shipping.
Although an online store does not need a storefront, it does need a warehouse.
The village chief vacated the unused room of the village committee.
Each family selects the bamboo products they want to sell, and after the young man checks and accepts them, he compiles each family's number and registers them in the warehouse.
The bamboo weaving enterprise store in Qingzhu Village opened with half excitement and half helplessness. This chapter has been completed!
