To be honest, after Lao Zhao took over the vegetable business, he became much more diligent than Song Tan.
Song Tan used to sell vegetables at 9 or 10 o'clock, which delayed everyone's (the middle-aged and elderly people in the vegetable market) morning exercise plan. It was different when it was Lao Zhao's turn. If Song Tan hadn't refused, he could have come at 4 o'clock, set off at 5 o'clock, and asked the uncles and aunts in the vegetable market to buy vegetables at 6 o'clock!
He wasn't driving anyway.
That’s right, the muscular young man who came this morning was Lao Zhao’s nephew Zhao Hao.
“Tsk tsk tsk…”
Seeing how he helped unload cartons from the car and how strong he was as he carried Zhang Yanping back and forth twice with one hand, Song Tan couldn't help but envy him: "With such good stamina... he must be very fast in the fields to plant rice, right?"
Xin Jun, who was holding a corn cob, said:
She was staring at him intently, and she didn't feel embarrassed at all even when the guy's ears were red. Xin Jun was still wondering if... Forget it, don't be fooled by Song Tan's beautiful face, what is pumping in her heart is not blood, but abacus beads!
He complained: "Why don't you just recruit him? He looks really capable."
"Forget it," Song Tan sighed, "Good talents have high salaries, I can't bear to give them up. Tell me, why don't I have more useless relatives and children? I don't mind running a family business."
Xin Jun looked at Zhang Yanping who was busy settling accounts, and then looked at Wu Lei who was carrying vegetables back from the vegetable field with a numb face - these two people had nothing to do with the talents Song Tan wanted, so they were just cheap.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a little satisfied and proud of his high salary of 5,000 yuan.
At this time, today's dishes are also packed.
Song Tan quickly called out, "Come on, come on, thank you for helping us pack today. Here are these two big watermelons, just for you."
After saying this, the young man felt even more embarrassed: "This... This is not worth it... I didn't do anything..."
Look, look!
What a simple and honest worker. Song Tan was very envious: "Take it, otherwise I will be too embarrassed to ask for help in the future."
After the two of them exchanged some business pleasantries, Qiao Qiao took out another bundle of eggs from the warehouse. Not many, 20 eggs in a tray, not even enough to fill three layers. "Brother, these are the eggs that our chickens worked so hard to lay. You must find a good home for them!"
Zhao Hao: ...ah this.
Looking at the eggs in front of him, he always felt that he was not doing a business, but rather entrusting an orphan to Yunqiao Village.
Even Xin Jun couldn't help but ask, "What kind of good family are you looking for?"
Qiao Qiao answered as a matter of course: "Of course it's the kind of people who don't waste food and don't roll eggs on wounds!"
He was watching TV yesterday and saw a boy rolling eggs on a girl's wound. After that, they started quarreling and the eggs were thrown on the ground. It was heartbreaking just thinking about it.
Everyone: …
"Okay!" Zhao Hao agreed seriously: "When I sell vegetables, I will ask those families who like to eat eggs if they want some. They will definitely not throw them away." Ten yuan each, who wouldn't feel uncomfortable wasting one
Meanwhile, Song Sancheng was a little worried: "These eggs are 10 yuan each. Is there anyone who would buy them in our small place?"
“So let’s test the waters first.”
Song Tan also said casually: "It won't go bad in a day or two. If you can't sell it, just take it back and eat it yourself."
Anyway, she saw some sterilized eggs or raw eggs online, and they cost several dollars each! Although hers didn't meet that standard, the taste was definitely better. Besides, this was a freshly laid egg! Freshly laid eggs were more expensive.
When the next wave comes, the price will drop a little. Everyone has bought 20 yuan worth of vegetables. If you come across a fresh egg, why not buy one to try
You will know it’s worth it once you try it.
Zhang Yanping came over and asked curiously, "It's hard to buy free-range eggs now, isn't it, uncle? Why didn't you raise a few dozen more at home before?"
This was before Song Tan returned home.
Song Sancheng said helplessly: "You only see the thief eating, but you don't see the thief being beaten. Raising too many chickens will easily cause them to get sick. And there are also people stealing them. I bought a few chicks at the beginning of the year, and it was good enough if I could have half of them left at the end of the year... Later I just sent them all to Tan Tan's grandfather to raise together."
"The eggs laid by these free-range chickens are small and we have to eat them at home. If we save a dozen or twenty of them, they are not fresh, so we simply don't sell them."
The most important thing is that he and Wulan have to go out to work every year, and it is really inconvenient to feed these things.
As we were talking, the old man and old woman who had gone up the mountain to pick golden cherries yesterday came over.
I have to say they worked really hard yesterday. The three of them picked about 120 kilograms of golden berries in total. They cleared the entire field of golden berries and not a single one escaped!
Fortunately it was dark, otherwise Song Tan was really afraid that they would have to dig under the ground again - not that necessary, just wait until this batch of fruits are ripe before picking them.
Fortunately, today's work is different.
The three people cooperated familiarly, putting the golden berries that were spread out to dry into the bag, and then one by one put on gloves and rubbed them vigorously, trying to rub off all the small thorns.
As soon as Secretary Zhu entered the yard, he saw everyone rubbing their hands, and his expression twisted:
"Oh, Aunt Chen, you're not afraid of pricking your hand. Just use your feet to put it in the bag!"
"That's not hard enough!" Old Mrs. Chen replied nonchalantly, "I'm old, what if I can't stand steadily with my feet and fall? I'll just use my hands. Aren't I wearing gloves?"
"That's right!" Old Mrs. Li was not to be outdone: "When I was young, I worked a lot, and the calluses on my hands were thicker than they are now. I didn't need gloves, I could just rub them through the sack."
Okay.
Secretary Xiao Zhu could only admit that they were great.
Then he asked Song Tan, "Didn't you say yesterday that you would start selling peaches today? Why didn't you ask anyone to go up the mountain to help pick them?"
“No hurry, no hurry.”
Song Tanzheng, Qiao Qiao and Zhang Yanping unfolded the folded packaging boxes together: "Didn't you say you would bring someone to take a look today? If I'm busy picking peaches, I won't be able to take care of this side."
How can we sell it to others then
Next, live streaming is for selling goods, but you have to warm up first. Otherwise, although the storage period of the hawkbill peach is quite long, picking it one day earlier means one day less of freshness, so you should pick it based on the orders.
"That's fine."
Secretary Xiao Zhu thought for a moment and decided that he was afraid to pick the abundant fruits, as this was in line with the current situation where fruit farmers had difficulty in selling their fruits!
It just so happens that it will be convenient for her to find out more sales channels from others.
"How are you going to sell these peaches?"
As she spoke, she reached towards the fruit plate with familiarity - there on it was a plate of large green peaches that had just been washed that morning, with pointed beaks, half red and half green, and they looked very fresh.
Speaking of the price, Song Tan was also troubled, but fortunately after eating peaches last night, everyone finally agreed on a suitable number. "60 per pound, free shipping for a box, but only for these peaches. If you add other things in the store, the combined shipping is not free."
This is also related to the delivery mode.
There are a large number of peaches, and they will probably be picked in the mountains and packed and shipped directly. Moreover, the fruit boxes are custom-made and wrapped tightly with sponge, for the fear that the peaches will be bumped and damaged.
If we add other items from the store, it won’t be possible to deliver them by express.
That’s why Song Tan and his team decided to offer free shipping for one box.
In this way, more people can be attracted to grit their teeth and buy a box to try it, which will help to sell the product in large quantities.
After all, the vegetables and tea sold on a daily basis will never interest anyone who is not interested in them, but everyone eats fruits.
With so many praises, it’s inevitable that you’ll be tempted to buy it and try it out.
Secretary Zhu was putting a peach into his mouth. Hearing this, he bit off the tip of the peach with a click:
"60 per pound, and you're still acting so reluctant?"
If she tells people the price, they will definitely understand that there is a reason why contemporary fruits are difficult to sell, right? !
Song Tan said confidently: "Isn't that a good enough discount? It's 5 jins, and I'll give you free shipping!"
It's not much cheaper than the original price of 40.
Besides—
"Just tell me whether this peach tastes good or not?"
