Chapter 547 Hot
On the afternoon of the same day as agreed with the team leader, Zhou Mingxuan and Zhao Junhao, carrying certificates issued by the team in their arms, started running towards the town to discuss business.
The other educated youth also started to take action the next day after receiving the notice from the team leader.
In fact, after last year's experience, they waited there after the autumn harvest. Who knew that after waiting for two days without any news, they were planning to find the team leader to inquire about the news and ask if they were still needed to sell vegetables this year, and then the team leader came to their door.
As for Yu Li, she was worried about meeting Su Youcai when she went to the town. Although she wanted to earn more money, she reluctantly did not sign up in order to avoid trouble. However, she did not expect that Zhou Wenbing would come back in the afternoon and bring her shocking news.
"What are you talking about? Su Youcai and his uncle were shot, and his parents were also arrested and sent to labor camps." Yu Li looked incredulous. "Zhou Zhiqing, are you kidding me?"
Zhou Wenbing said, "Why would I lie to you? This is absolutely true. Those two people were executed almost a month ago.
I had asked someone for information about Su Youcai before, and I met that person in town today, and he told me about it."
Yu Li felt regretful. Fortunately, she believed Aunt Sufen and Zhou Wenbing and did not get entangled with Su Youcai anymore. If she had really been with that man, she would probably be a widow now.
"Yu Zhiqing, it's a good thing that Aunt Sufen reminded you in time, otherwise..." Zhou Wenbing didn't say the rest.
"I heard that after Su Youcai and his uncle were executed, Su's father and mother were arrested, and only two girls were left from the two families. Many victims ran to the two families to plunder them, and the two girls who were left behind had a hard life.
And every day I have to endure other people's cold stares, I am just like a rat crossing the street."
What Zhou Wenbing wanted to say was that if you had really been deceived by Su Youcai and married him, you would be one of the ones suffering now.
Feng Chunyan said, "Sister Yu Li, you didn't go to the town to sell vegetables because you were worried about running into Su Youcai.
Now that Su Youcai has been shot, it is impossible to run into him, so why don't you join me and go sell vegetables together."
Yu Li was somewhat moved by what she heard, but she still had some concerns, "I have met Su Youcai several times in town, and someone might have seen me. What if I go to town and get recognized?"
“Don’t be afraid, the weather is a bit cold, just cover your face with a headscarf.
I'm a little scared to go alone, you come with me to give me courage. We were partners last year, too, let's go find those customers from last year."
Among the six female educated youth, Xia Lan and Zhang Yingchun did not participate, while Chen Jiaojiao and Liu Zhaodi joined together. Yu Li did not sign up because she was worried about meeting Su Youcai, which resulted in Feng Chunyan being left alone.
Now that Su Youcai has gone offline, Yu Li has no worries, so she naturally tries her best to persuade Yu Li to sell vegetables with her.
After a lot of ideological struggle, Yu Li's desire for a little money finally overcame her fear, and she nodded in agreement, "Okay, I'll go to the captain to get a certificate now, and I'll go with you tomorrow."
After Zhou Mingxuan and Zhao Junhao went to the town for two days, they brought back the first order.
“What did you just say? You signed a small order with the First Machinery Factory.
They ordered 2 kilograms of each of cabbage, radish and potato, a total of 6 kilograms, 2500 kilograms of pine nuts and hazelnuts, 2 kilograms of pickled cabbage, and 3000 kilograms of various dried vegetables and dried mushrooms," the captain said in amazement.
He covered his heart, feeling like it was about to jump out of his mouth. This was only the first order, why was it so exciting?
Also, what is this called a small order? I think you two don't have a clear understanding of the word 'small'.
If this is small, then what does big look like.
The captain couldn't help but complain, "Do you two have any misunderstanding about the word 'small'? It's not small at all."
Zhao Junhao curled his lips, "This is not small. They have such a big factory, and so many people eat in the cafeteria every day. How long will these things last?"
“Captain, this is only their first batch of orders.
The main reason is that they don’t know the quality of our products, so they said to order a small amount to give it a try, and if they like it, they will continue to order later.
This is just what they ordered from their canteen. The employees in their factory also need to stock up on vegetables at home. They said they would go back and do a statistics first. If the quality of our vegetables is good, they will give us a number later." Zhou Mingxuan explained.
Zhao Junhao said, "So, Captain, in order for them to continue to buy vegetables from our production team, our quality must not be bad, otherwise we will lose the business in the future.
Also, they knew that they definitely didn't have pickled cabbage right now, and said they would send it back in a month. But for the other items, they said they would send a truck to load them in two days, and we would pay on the spot then.
Captain, you have to make arrangements now."
"Captain, does our production team have so many vegetables?" Zhou Mingxuan asked worriedly.
“Yes, how could there not be.
As for the quality, don't worry. I will personally check it and will definitely not let anyone mess up. I will definitely get all the subsequent orders."
The team leader was so happy that he was a little incoherent. "Hold a meeting. We need to hold a meeting to let all the villagers know the good news and send the best quality goods from home."
He didn't care about Zhou Mingxuan and Zhao Junhao anymore. He walked outside to find his gong and prepare to call the villagers to a meeting.
After all the villagers arrived and the news was announced, they were immediately delighted and kept thanking Zhou Mingxuan and Zhao Junhao.
The team leader repeatedly stressed the need to ensure quality and not to pass off inferior products as good ones. After cutting off subsequent transactions, he asked the team leaders to decide which villagers would supply vegetables for this transaction according to last year's rules.
During these two days, Zhou Mingxuan and Zhao Junhao brought back two more orders, but the quantities were not as large. Other educated youth also brought back some orders from last year's old customers.
Two days later, people from the First Machinery Factory drove two trucks over as promised. After inspecting the goods and confirming that the quality was good, they bought all the vegetables except the sauerkraut and settled the bill on the spot.
He even signed a new order with Zhou Mingxuan and Zhao Junhao in front of the villagers. The dishes were the same as before, but the quantities were tripled.
The same goes for sauerkraut, which will be delivered after a month, and other vegetables, which will be delivered after five days.
After the people from the First Machinery Factory left, Accountant Li reminded them, "Captain, the orders we have signed can only cover the orders for fresh vegetables if we combine the surplus vegetables from the production team. We can also cover the orders for dried vegetables and mountain products, but there won't be much left.
As for the sauerkraut orders, our production team has no more vegetables to stockpile except for our own. We have to quickly buy vegetables from other production teams and stockpile the sauerkraut so that people can come to pick it up."
Accountant Li looked at Zhou Mingxuan and Zhao Junhao standing beside him and said, "It's mainly because Zhou Zhiqing and Zhao Zhiqing are so awesome. The orders they have signed so far have almost sold out all the extra vegetables in our production team."
Upon hearing this, the team leader said to the villagers who were watching, "Everyone has heard that there are not many mountain products left.
Don't just sit around at home and do nothing after the autumn harvest. Everyone, go up the mountain and collect mountain products for me."
"Captain, with so many orders for sauerkraut, what should we do if we don't have enough cabbage to make sauerkraut?" a villager shouted.
"There's no rush. I've already made an agreement with the team leader of Liushugou. We'll use a tractor and a bullock cart to transport vegetables to their production team tomorrow.
The veterans in the team who are good at accumulating sauerkraut, please come to the brigade headquarters tomorrow to accumulate sauerkraut."
"Captain, we don't have that many jars of pickled cabbage."
Secretary Xu said, "I have already made an order with the people in the town, and they will deliver 25 large vats this afternoon.
If anyone in the team has extra supplies, please send them over to the team for use."
Zhao Junhao said, "Captain, the production team is out of vegetables, so are we still going to take orders?"
“Yes, but don’t accept the sauerkraut order for now. The main reason is that we are not prepared this year. The sauerkraut jars are not ready, and we haven’t planted enough vegetables.
You can only accept fresh vegetables, dried vegetables, and mountain products first. For sauerkraut, etc., please fill the orders that have already been accepted, and then see the situation later. "
"Okay, we know what to do."
