As Xu Yin said, business was indeed very light in the early stage.
Even though her online store has friendly traffic, there are still not many people visiting it. At the end of the day, it would be good to have one or two orders.
But around New Year’s Day, the bamboo weaving business suddenly picked up.
The most popular items are bamboo door curtains and bamboo curtains, followed by bamboo baskets, bamboo vases, and bamboo rice covers.
I asked a few buyers, and they all said they wanted to buy a new batch for the Chinese New Year, so that the New Year brings a new atmosphere.
Seeing that the online store is doing business, the villagers are so happy. They are no longer as depressed and discouraged as before. After finishing other things, they gather in the lobby of the village committee to weave bamboo strips.
The village chief saw the village collective's online store business getting better and better, and he felt so happy that on New Year's Day, he specially brought a big hoof of a domestic pig to thank Xu Yin.
Xu Yin refused to accept it, so the simple and honest village chief put it down and ran away.
On the contrary, his little Huang stayed at Xu Yin's house and had a meal of fragrant meat and bones before leaving.
The Xu family in Haicheng.
Mrs. Xu waited and waited for almost two months before Xu Yin came to the door to cry. That night she asked her husband in confusion: "Have you sent someone to Wenpu?"
"We have been gone a long time ago, what? Yin Yin hasn't come to apologize to Yueyue yet? You shouldn't!"
Xu Weiming picked up his cell phone and called the person doing the work.
I heard from the other party that they refused to accept the bamboo products from Qingzhu Village two months ago, and they haven’t let go.
That is how the matter?
The couple were very puzzled.
“Is it possible that Qingzhu Village no longer relies on bamboo weaving for its livelihood?”
“But there is no other way out there except bamboo. If you don’t rely on this, how can you make a living?”
Rely on what?
For the Xu family, as the Chinese New Year approaches, the most popular item is no longer bamboo woven products, but bamboo chickens.
Xu Yin found out the orders recorded by Xu's father when he was hospitalized, and called them one by one to verify: "Do you still want the Bamboo Forest Chicken you ordered? It will be out of the cage soon."
The result is:
“I want it, I want it!”
“I ordered one last time, right? I want to add another one, I want two.”
“Can I have two more?”
“My relatives also want bamboo chickens. Can I add two more?”
Almost all require additional orders.
Xu Yin: “…”
The existing orders are not enough to ship. Are you still adding an order?
Xu Zhengnan came to deliver New Year's goods to his second uncle's house. He was happy to see his cousin, whom he had known for only half a year, squatting in front of a small bench, holding a calculator and counting how many Bamboo Forest chickens had been sold and how many were left. He had a sad expression on her face. no.
"Yinyin, what is it that makes you so embarrassed? Tell me and I will solve it for you."
“Brother, we don’t have enough bamboo chickens to sell.”
“…” Xu Zhengnan couldn’t laugh or cry, “Other people are worried about not being able to sell, but how come you are worried about selling well?”
Xu Yin stood up, rubbed her numb calves, and handed the record book to her cousin:
“Originally we agreed to have one, but we asked for two at the last minute. I originally ordered two, but now I want three, and even after I said it, I was hung up and couldn’t let me explain. Do I want to send it or not?”
Xu Zhengnan smiled and said: "These people just see you as cute and easy to bully. Next time the phone calls come, I will answer the call for you. Also, are you going to deliver these to your door?"
"That's right. The courier station does not accept orders for live animals." Xu Yin said while packing, "I plan to deliver them myself."
She has a motorcycle anyway.
"Let me deliver the goods to you. You give me a copy of the original order, and I will deliver it door-to-door according to the quantity requested. If anyone complains, I will bring it back. Don't worry, it will definitely sell. You have to get out! If you can’t sell it, I’ll wrap it up for you!”
Xu Yin couldn't help but laugh: "Brother, how about you come to my part-time job next year!"
Has a cousin with a business background, and she wants to be a hands-off shopkeeper.
Xu Zhengnan touched his chin and thought for a moment: "Okay! Leave all the work that requires dealing with the outside to your brother and me."
“Brother Nan takes action, one can stand up to two!”
Xu Zhengnan’s son, Paopao, ran in from the gate and made such a joke, making everyone present laugh.
Papa jumped up to Xu Yin. "Oh, yes! Look at my memory." Xu Zhengnan patted his forehead, "The express truck is at the entrance of the village. You have to pick it up in person. It is said that the sender specially noted it."
Xu Yin was quite puzzled. She hadn’t bought anything recently.
Take it apart after taking it.
“Wow! There are so many things!” Paopao squatted next to her.
Every time Xu Yin took something out, he would exclaim "Wow".
The family heard what the aunt and nephew were doing and gathered around to take a look.
“Yinyin, what did you buy?”
“My aunt didn’t buy it.”
Papa followed Xu Yin to pick up the express delivery, so she knew she didn’t buy it.
"Didn't you buy it?" Feng Cuiqin came over and took a look, "Hey! There's also ham!"
Xu Yin also saw that in addition to ham, there were also pear candy, shortbread, and small wood carvings, all specialties from Hengshi.
She thought about who gave it to her.
Other than my boyfriend who is filming in Hengshi, who else? This sums up the variety of local specialties in Hengshi.
“Mom, it’s a gift from my friend. Take the ham to the kitchen so you can stew it for the Chinese New Year.”
“Your friend is giving you New Year’s gifts? It’s such a big box.”
Feng Cuiqin did not doubt that he was there, and happily returned to the kitchen carrying a famous Supreme ham in Hengshi.
Xu Yin gave some pear paste candies, shortbread cookies, cheese candies and milk slices from northern Xinjiang to Bubbles, and also gave him a small wooden figure as a gift.
“Thank you, Aunt Piao Niang.”
“That little mouth is so sweet!” Xu Yin touched his head and said, “Let’s go play.”
She arranged the remaining things and put them in her room.
In addition to food and ornaments, there is also a cashmere gift box, which contains a three-piece warm set: scarf, hat and gloves.
She rubbed the texture of the cashmere, and it turned out to be better than the Tongcheng cashmere she had stored in the system warehouse.
She picked up her phone and took a photo to send to her boyfriend.
[Did you send it to me? This is too much! ]
Fu Hanjin had just finished work, holding a cup of hot tea and letting the makeup artist remove his makeup.
Ding Tao took his cell phone over and said, "Brother Fu, your cell phone is ringing."
He took it and looked at it, his tired brows turning into a smile.
The makeup artist looked at him through the dressing mirror as he responded to the message with a smile on his face, and sighed in his heart: This man who has a partner is different. Never before have I seen such an affectionate side of Best Actor Fu.
Fu: [The scene was relatively loose in the first two days. I followed Xiao Ding to the local New Year market. He recommended a few models. I thought they were pretty good, so I bought them for you. Do you like them? ]
Xu Yin played with a set of wooden figures from the Lady series and gave him a voice message:
“Did you go to the street and choose it yourself? I thought your assistant bought it for you.”
When Fu Hanjin saw her voice message, he thought she was not busy, so he made a video call directly: "Even though they are some gadgets, they are given to you by me. How can I let others, especially a man, choose them for me?"
Ding Tao, who was waiting on this gentleman in front of the saddle and behind the horse, said: "..."
嘁! Those Hengshi specialties you bought were not all recommended by me, a man!
The makeup artist couldn't hold back her laughter.
Xu Yin smiled: "Are you still taking off your makeup? Just finished your work?"
“Well, I’m so tired!” He leaned lazily on the back of the chair, his voice was lazy and low.
Xu Yin: “…”
Is this being coquettish?
“I’ll go over and see you after I finish my work for a while.”
“Hmm.” He responded quickly, “Let Xiao Ding book a ticket for you.”
Assistant Ding: At this time, he actually thought of me.
“No, I’m not sure when we’re going to leave yet, I’ll book it myself.”
“Let me know when you’ve made the reservation.”
"good."
