Chapter 241 Another big deal (4200) There will be more tonight
Mengmeng can't eat fried crucian carp, but there is no problem with steamed fish.
Cao Shujie gave her a piece of it, without picking at it, and let her eat it slowly.
Sure enough, Mengmeng stopped after taking two bites, moved her mouth, and a small thorn came out of her mouth. She took off the thorn with her hands and threw it aside.
After taking two more bites, he stopped and spit out another thorn.
Cao Shujie had forgotten when his daughter started to develop this skill at a young age. She would not swallow hard things like thorns, bones, peppercorns, and watermelon seeds in her food.
When he first found out about it, he couldn't believe it. He was afraid that his daughter might swallow it by mistake, so he carefully tried it several times with insignificant things. In the end, he could only give in and admit that his daughter was indeed extraordinary.
But this also reassures him that at least Mengmeng won’t swallow anything indigestible by mistake!
But when Grandpa Cao Zhenghu saw it, he disagreed and had to let him pick out the thorns. The old man always believed in the truth that "you can't walk by the river without getting wet shoes".
Cao Shujie did not argue with his grandfather, and when he gave his daughter fish meat to eat, he would pick out the spines for her.
"It's so delicious!" Mengmeng ate it and the corners of her mouth were covered with shredded pork.
She holds a small fork in her hand, forks up the fish and puts it into her mouth, no matter who feeds it!
Seeing her granddaughter eating happily, Wang Yuelan felt happy in her heart. She asked: "Mengmeng, is this the fish you went to catch?"
"No, grandma, I went to play with the fish that dad caught." Mengmeng was quite honest at the moment.
She also picked up the fish meat that her father brought her and handed it to her grandma. She said sweetly: "Grandma, it's delicious. You can eat it too."
"Grandma won't eat it, you can eat it." When Wang Yuelan saw her granddaughter thinking this way, her heart felt like eating honey, it was very sweet.
Mengmeng didn't agree with anything and insisted on handing the mouthful of fish to her grandma.
When she becomes stubborn, she becomes even more difficult to deal with than adults.
In the end, Wang Yuelan had no choice but to use chopsticks to pick up the fish meat handed over by her granddaughter and put it into her mouth. When Mengmeng saw it, she narrowed her eyes with laughter.
"Grandma, is the meat delicious?" Mengmeng asked.
Wang Yuelan nodded: "It's delicious, so delicious."
"Yeah, then grandma will eat it again!"
While she was talking, she saw that there was no fish in her small bowl, so she simply went to the fish plate and picked up a large piece and handed it to her grandma.
Then he picked up a piece and handed it to the old man and grandpa respectively. In the end, even the parents were not left behind. Cao Zhenghu kept praising Mengmeng for her filial piety.
Cao Shujie saw this scene and listened to his grandfather's statement, but he was unable to refute.
Mengmeng is the best child in the eyes of grandfather Cao Zhenghu.
After dinner in the evening, his father Cao Jianguo was not in a hurry to leave. He asked Cao Shujie when the park would open again.
Two days before the three-day Qingming Festival holiday, the excitement in the orchard completely ignited the burning fire in Cao Jianguo's heart and made him realize that planting orchards can really make money.
He didn't earn as much as his son before. He thinks that only means that he didn't go to college and his planting methods were wrong, so he is not as good as his son is doing now!
"Dad, don't worry about this. I'm thinking about saving more. In two days there will be more red strawberries. I'll call Nie Bin. In the middle of the month, I'll call Zuo Le again. I'll leave a message at the end of the month.
For those who have a short Labor Day holiday." Cao Shujie had already made plans in his mind.
He said: "We can neither rely on these two fruit wholesalers alone, nor can we rely entirely on picking. Dad, you have also seen our current situation. I think we must walk on two legs to be more reliable!"
Cao Jianguo knew in his heart that what his son said was right.
Unlike himself who only values immediate gains, his son takes a longer-term view.
At this point, Cao Jianguo felt like a mirror.
After picking up the cup and taking a sip of hot tea, Cao Jianguo asked his son: "Shujie, have you considered the election?"
"What's the election?" Cao Shujie asked.
"What else could it be, the village director? You are not a party member. Even if you are elected as the village party secretary, there are not enough hard conditions!" Cao Jianguo knows this area well.
He didn't pay attention to this information before, because he was not qualified anyway.
But since his son became prosperous in Caojiazhuang and his voice became louder and louder, he began to pay attention to this area.
In private, Cao Jianguo also contacted a group of people from Lao Cao's family in advance and drank and ate with them, thinking that he would vote for his son in the next election.
"Dad, you also know that I have a lazy temper." Cao Shujie said this.
But Cao Jianguo was not discouraged. He patiently said to his son: "I didn't tell you what to do. Besides, there are still some days until the election. What I mean is that if you have any ideas in this regard, just tell me and I will tell you."
Go contact someone for you. If you really don’t want to do it, we won’t do this job and just make our money safely.”
"Dad, let's talk about it later." Cao Shujie did not discuss this issue in depth with his father.
"Okay, let's do this for now."
The father and son drank tea for a while, and Cao Jianguo said again: "Shujie, it's getting late. Your mother and I are going back to rest."
Nowadays, the street lights in Caojiazhuang stay on for an extra long time.
…
Beijing is very lively at night.
There is no comparison between Caojiazhuang and here.
Fu Feng, the editor-in-chief of Youku's original video content editing department, and his capable employee Du Wenwu walked to find a place to eat after get off work.
Originally, Du Wenwu wanted to show off and invite his leader to dinner, but Fu Feng stopped him.
"Tonight counts as team building within our department." Fu Feng said this, which means the company is footing the bill.
When Du Wenwu heard what the editor said, he didn't refute it, knowing that the editor must have other things to say to him.
Sure enough, after the two of them ordered their dishes, they sat down and drank scented tea when they heard Fu Feng say: "Xiao Du, where do you think the future of our department is?"
This question was very serious, and Du Wenwu was not in a hurry to answer it. He thought for a long time, combined it with every bit of the chat with Fu Feng during the day, and finally said: "Editor-in-Chief, I think there are two points."
"Say." Fu Feng pricked up his ears and listened carefully.
Du Wenwu raised a finger and said: "Advertising revenue is irreplaceable."
Fu Feng also knew this. He was noncommittal, drinking scented tea and looking at Du Wenwu opposite, wanting to hear his second point.
Du Wenwu extended his second finger and said: "Just like the PPT I showed you during the day, how can you monetize the current video content?"
"Elaborate!" Fu Feng became more energetic.
The waiter began to serve them food, and Fu Feng got another bottle of white wine. The two of them drank and chatted.
Du Wenwu still used Cao Shujie's orchard as an example to give Fu Feng an example.
Because for now, this is also Du Wenwu's most successful case, bar none.
Listening to Du Wenwu narrating his experiences over the past few days, Fu Feng also had the idea to find out.
Thinking about it in his mind, Fu Feng suddenly asked: "Xiao Du, do you have any plans for the May Day holiday?"
"Editor-in-Chief, I have no arrangements. If you have anything to do, just give me your instructions." Du Wenwu said.
He knew very well that this was also his opportunity.
In a place like the capital, no matter how hard you work, sometimes you need support from noble people.
Either you are good enough!
Obviously, Du Wenwu is not a particularly outstanding person, so he values speculation more!
"Okay, if you have nothing else to do, let's discuss it later." Fu Feng didn't say it clearly, but Du Wenwu guessed what he wanted to do?
Most likely, I want to visit Mengmeng Orchard.
"What do the editor-in-chief think?" Du Wenwu was thinking about this question in his mind.
But before Du Wenwu could guess what Fu Feng was thinking, he heard Fu Feng talk about another thing: "The original video advertising share is almost settled, and it will be paid out around the 10th. Various broadcasters have plans here."
Post it on the 12th, and you can give the Mengmeng Orchard podcaster the details in advance."
"In addition, the principle of our platform is to focus on promoting high-quality videos. In this area, whether it is our Youku, Tudou, or Xinku6.com, including some other short video platforms, we are all groping forward."
"As the leader in the video platform field, we cannot be passive and should proactively explore new channels." Fu Feng said.
"In this area, we are now lagging behind Xinku 6. Next, we must be bold and bold. Don't be afraid, Xiao Du, do you understand?"
"Yes, editor-in-chief, don't worry, I understand!" Du Wenwu nodded heavily.
Fu Feng was very happy when he saw Du Wenwu's attitude and said, "This is right. Young people should be more energetic and energetic."
"We also need to develop a large platform structure. There is nothing to be afraid of. If one big path doesn't work, we will have to take another path. As pioneers, we must have the courage to forge ahead!"
Fu Feng's words made Du Wenwu excited and more motivated.
He felt that the editor-in-chief was right. There was someone in front of him. He had nothing to be afraid of. With such good resources, he should just keep running forward!
The next moment, Du Wenwu held the wine glass in both hands and gestured to Fu Feng: "Editor-in-Chief, I salute you."
"Come on, let's do one." Fu Feng's alcohol addiction was getting high, and with the good news, he drank more vigorously.
…
A few days passed, and as the temperature continued to rise, the apple trees in the orchard also bloomed, and the flowers on the kiwi fruit trees bloomed more.
The strawberries in the strawberry garden are also bright red.
Cao Shujie knew that it was time to digest again, but now in early April, there are not many holidays. Occasionally, people come over on Saturdays and weekends. Compared with the short holidays, there are not many people. Cao Shujie thought about it and decided to call Nie Bin in the provincial capital first.
I called him and asked him if he wanted more strawberries.
When Nie Bin heard Cao Shujie's call, he agreed without saying a word.
Not to mention anything else, the four words "Mengmeng Orchard" have already gained a certain reputation in the original videos on Youku.com.
There are more and more people who want to buy strawberries from Mengmeng Orchard, but not everyone has the time or a car to take a trip whenever they want.
At this time, someone was in the market asking if they could sell strawberries from Mengmeng Orchard.
Some people want to pass themselves off as cute strawberries and sell their inferior strawberries at high prices.
However, anyone who has watched the Mengmeng Orchard video on Youku knows that the strawberry production in Mengmeng Orchard is limited and cannot supply such a large amount at all.
And many people have made it clear in the comment area on Youku.com that the strawberries from Mengmeng Orchard smell fragrant, unlike some strawberries grown in greenhouses or strawberries ripened with drugs, which have no smell at all.
I mean, it's extremely expensive.
As for ordinary people who don't watch Youku, when they see such expensive strawberries, they will weigh one or two when buying.
Nie Bin and his team had long wanted to come here to pick strawberries, but when they came over on Qingming Festival and saw the crowds of people in Cao Shujie’s orchard, they gave up the idea of picking and thought of waiting first and missing this wave of people.
During the peak period, it might be theirs next time.
Unexpectedly, they really waited for the opportunity.
After receiving the call from Cao Shujie, Nie Bin immediately asked his people to drive straight to Caojiazhuang, Qingshi Town.
On the way to Caojiazhuang, Nie Bin also chatted with Zhang Tianzhi, Xu Su and others, talking about their strawberry picking trip and the follow-up arrangements.
"Brother Bin, how long will it take for our car to arrive?" Zhang Tianzhi asked.
Nie Bin said: "We can arrive at any time. Let's take the lead and see how much the output is. We'll pick it tomorrow morning while it's cool."
They are very experienced in picking strawberries and know when to pick them which is most beneficial for transportation and storage.
When they arrived at Caojiazhuang, Nie Bin called Cao Shujie. After the two parties met, Cao Shujie took them directly to the orchard.
When Nie Bin and his group saw the red strawberries in the strawberry area of Cao Shujie's orchard, everyone was so happy. In their eyes, it was all money.
Nie Bin and others are very aware of the popularity of strawberries in Mengmeng Orchard. At this time, they can exchange these strawberries for money as long as they transport them out.
When talking about the price, Cao Shujie still sold this wave of strawberries to Nie Bin for 32 yuan.
Nie Bin was very satisfied with the price. He knew that even if Cao Shujie didn't increase the price for him this time, it would be very humane, and forget about anything else.
He and Zuo Le have the same thoughts.
Zuo Le was transporting the strawberries to the capital city to sell them, while Nie Bin was thinking of bringing some of the strawberries back to the provincial capital and the rest to the capital for sale.
No matter what, you can always make some money.
"Boss Cao, I need to trouble you to find some people to start picking at 3 o'clock tomorrow morning. What do you think?" Nie Bin asked Cao Shujie.
It sounded completely like a discussion.
Cao Shujie nodded: "That's no problem. As many people as Boss Nie wants to find, I'll just go to the village committee and shout on the loudspeaker later."
"Let's try to be as fast as possible, otherwise there will only be 20 people, and the price will be the same as last time." Nie Bin asked.
The last time Cao Shujie and Zuo Le discussed these matters, Nie Bin was listening, and it was just in time to put it to use.
"Okay, I'm going to go to the village committee and shout, Boss Nie, please prepare the car." Cao Shujie said.
"For money, does Boss Cao want to transfer money? Or do you want cash?" Nie Bin asked, as if he was not short of money.
Cao Shujie smiled and said, "I'll just transfer the money. After we finish picking, we can settle the balance after weighing."
"As for other pickers' wages, it is better to pay them in cash, which is more convenient."
Nie Bin agreed to all of them.
In his opinion, these are all trivial details and are simply insignificant.
After discussing these matters, Nie Bin asked Zhang Tianzhi to prepare other matters. He would not leave and would wait in Cao Shujie's orchard.
I recommended a new book to a friend who is also a very hard-working friend!
