Chapter 932: The selfish and vain female supporting role (28)
After all, these students have never done farm work before. Isn’t it difficult for them to harvest rice and wheat? Aren't you afraid that they will ruin the vegetable field by fertilizing it, watering it and catching insects?
Plucking is different. It’s easy to learn and get started, and you can see the fruits of your labor immediately.
It’s not that the head teachers of other classes are uninterested, but it takes an hour and a half by bus from Jiang County to Xiangcheng. Is it too far?
Besides, if you contact a large farmer or vegetable grower in the city, the cost is very low. A student can do it for only 50 or 60 yuan. When you go out to the market and it’s fruit picking, the discounted price for a group tour is 118 yuan per person. Parents, don’t you think so? Any opinions?
Unexpectedly, the parents were very happy and even wanted to sign up with their children for a family trip.
Parent-child tours are not possible. This is a labor practice organized by the school, but with the support of parents, the activities are carried out smoothly.
There are forty students in one class. Except for two students who took leave due to physical reasons, all other students have signed up.
Under the leadership of Teacher Xu and another male teacher, on Friday, carrying a schoolbag containing water and snacks, they happily got on the bus, singing and laughing all the way, and came to Xiangcheng to experience the daily life of a fruit farmer.
When the villagers saw that the people in this car were all students, and they were junior high school students born out of restless adolescence, they were all youthful and energetic, and they couldn't help but feel cold sweat for the Mingkang family.
"Students of this age are not as qualified as retired teachers. They don't care about environmental protection, and they don't care about fruits. At home, they eat whatever they want and throw them away if they don't want to eat. They have a bad temper. I have to persuade them. I don’t know how to listen, I find you annoying if I say too much, and even go against you, and now the Mingkang family’s cherry orchard will be ruined.”
However, the results once again surprised them.
Looking at the cherry orchard after the student group left, everyone looked at me and I looked at you: "Isn't this quite clean?"
“It’s really not a waste?”
“How did the Mingkang family do it?”
"Not only the Mingkang family, but also the Lijun family's nectarine orchard is normal. When tourists come, they pick and eat at the same time. Each person picks two or three baskets. One basket is included in the tourist fee for free, and the rest are for tourists. They paid for it. After leaving, the ground was clean, and there were no nectarines in the trash can that were thrown away after just one or two bites."
…”
At the same time, on the bus returning, Gu Chenyu was handing out souvenirs to the students: "Boss Xu said that you did not damage the environment or waste cherries during the picking process. She will stamp your labor practice form with an excellent stamp." , and I’ll give you a souvenir as well.”
The souvenir is a small cherry-shaped sachet filled with herbs that can refresh people's minds. Wearing them on their bodies can help them stay awake and alert.
“Sister tour guide, when we came here, didn’t you say that you can pick other things in the orchard of Qianjin Village? If you go to pick peaches, plums, and apricots, are there also such souvenirs?” A girl asked curiously.
Gu Chenyu said with a smile: "Of course, what kind of fruit is picked will be given in the shape of the sachet."
This is a souvenir agreed upon by Xu Yin, the village committee and the travel agency after three-way communication - it will be sewn by an elderly woman who is good at needlework in the village, and the herbs will be purchased by Xu Yin.
The women’s wages are paid to the fees received from the village committee, and expenses such as herbs, embroidery cloth, and embroidery thread are sponsored by the travel agency.
In fact, the cost is not much. Old women are too old to do anything else. They can make money by sitting in the village committee courtyard sewing sachets. Even if it is only twenty or thirty yuan a day, they are happy.
What’s more, as I get older and don’t live with my juniors, I feel lonely at home alone. If we can sew sachets together and chat, our spirits will be much better.
But it will be explained when coming: If any tourists do not abide by the agreement during the picking process, wantonly damage the environment, destroy the orchard, and waste fruit, not only will they not be given souvenirs, but they will also be blacklisted, and they will not be able to come to Qianjin Village to pick fruit again in the future.
We are all adults, even if we are not yet adults, we are still good young people who have grown up under the red flag. We will generally not disobey the principles after breaking them apart and crushing them into pieces. Even if there are such people, they are very few of the best. If you encounter them once, they will be directly blacklisted. Next time you want to come to Qianjin Village to pick, I’m sorry! No chance!
In this way, the orchard of Qianjin Village, under the leadership of Xu Yin, received batch after batch of tourist groups.
There are basically parent-child groups on weekends, retired employee groups on weekdays, and student groups with a labor practice theme. From Monday to Sunday, there are tourist buses coming to Shaiguchang every day, and sometimes there are more than one.
The village committee started to receive 200 yuan a day, sometimes as much as 600 yuan, which made the village elders smile like chrysanthemums.
The orchard that met the group was also smiling from ear to ear.
The same amount is two to three hundred kilograms. The farmers work hard to pick it and sell it to the buyers who come to visit, and the tourists pick it and buy it themselves. The price difference is one to two thousand, and this is only one day! What if there are more times?
The profits from taking over the group were so high that they saw hope.
They are glad to have signed up. Whether it is environmental maintenance fees or other fees, they are very active in paying for them.
Because they know that the good quality of tourists is obtained by the village committee and the travel agency together with souvenirs.
Moreover, after the advertisement of souvenirs for one-day souvenir picking in Xiangcheng Qianjin Village is advertised, it will attract more tourists and more business.
In this way, the bad thing about buyers lowering prices will no longer be a worry for them.
On the contrary, buyers who used to sneer at small cherries often come to Xu Yin's house recently, licking their faces and asking if they can sell some of them.
The quotation has increased from the original 6 yuan to 10 yuan.
They can't give it no matter how high it is. After all, they don't directly contact the merchants. They sell it to wholesalers, and there is an intermediary.
However, now, does the Xu family still lack the 10 yuan quotation?
Xu Yin delivers a batch of cherries to Anshi every two days and sells several 100 kilograms. Not to mention that she can earn a lot of energy points, the price of small cherries starts at 12 yuan.
Originally worried that there was no one who had to hang on the branches when the cherry was cooked. How can I worry about it now?
Oh, there are worries too—worry about not selling enough!
I am afraid that saying it will make the acquirer vomit blood, but it is indeed the truth.
Her varieties of small cherries in Anshi are the best-selling ones. There is no need to worry about lack of sales. On the contrary, the supply exceeds the demand.
The purchaser also shamelessly came to Xu's house when he saw that the price of small cherries in Anshi remained high and affected the surrounding markets such as Jiangxian and Wenxian.
I didn’t expect that the Xu family’s cherries would already be in the market, and I regretted not settling on them earlier.
When I came to see the cherries for the first time in late May, if I had been more cheerful and quoted a price of 8 yuan, I would have signed the contract long ago.
The acquirer regretted his mistake.
