Chapter 954: The more we chat, the more topics we have.
All right! The pork feast hasn’t even started yet, and here we are with two more tables—12 tables in total.
Seventh Uncle was quite satisfied, and while discussing the dishes each of them was responsible for with Master Jiang, he also asked Song Tan, “Should we double the amount of food and rice when the ti cos?”
Not even doubling is a sure bet!
Song Tan said gravely, “Triple it!”
Seventh Uncle was shocked: “If everyone eats three bowls, will your fans be able to walk away? They won’t be able to sit down!”
Song Tan was also helpless: “What can we do then? We can’t just let people go hungry, right?” In the countryside, if soone hosts a feast and runs out of food at the end, they’ll be the laughingstock.
After thinking, Master Jiang suggested, “How about this: we’ll serve less staple food, double that amount. But let’s triple the quantity of dishes… Eating vegetables is better than eating rice, right?”
Sure, sure, sure!
Song Tan nodded, “You guys handle everything in the kitchen. No need to ask ; just decide on your own.”
That won’t work, what if we suddenly need to add another table! First of all, the table won’t fit all those dishes!
He had no choice but to discuss with Master Jiang, “Although it’s not a rotating banquet, we two will probably have to prepare two rounds of dishes on that day.” Because a regular table won’t fit that much food.
Master Jiang, now quite skilled at cooking big pot dishes, nodded calmly, “Just command —oh, by the way, Boss Song, can my master and the others co too?”
Song Tan: …Of course!
Boss Chang has such a big client! She had forgotten earlier and now could only add another table.
Seventh Uncle: …
Maybe we should stop talking, or else by the ti we get to slaughtering the pig, an entire pig will have gone into it.
However, the most pressing matter right now is not the pig-slaughtering feast a month later, but the hand cream.
A while back, the face cream had already been produced, but it wasn’t put on sale imdiately because they had asked the villagers to package them all in advance.
Everything is now ready except for the shipping labels.
With Lulutong and Youzhengdada dividing the market, each has over 33,300 parcels, which is almost enough for several years’ worth of orders in the village!
So the owners of each company personally ca over and even each brought a label printer to leave here, seizing the opportunity!
Then, Zhang Yanping solemnly set up the notice, prepared the link, and waited for the live stream to start.
…
Thousands of miles away, Xiao Yun huddled in the engineering departnt, instructing a group of uncles:
“Rember, right? As soon as I notify you guys, just click, click, click! After the hand cream arrives, drinks are on —I’ll treat everyone to Kudzu powder!”
Last ti, combining several accounts, they only managed to snag one order. It was a humiliating defeat in their battle to buy goods. Today, with the large stock and a centralized pick-up point, based on past purchase-limit experiences, these will not be considered the sa address!
In any case! She must have the hand masks!
As for this, the older ladies in the office had different opinions—
“Xiao Yun is a good girl, knows how to manage a household and live frugally, and her cooking is delicious. It’s just that she’s also willing to spend money.”
Having frugality and being willing to spend money apply to Xiao Yun, there’s no conflict at all.
“That’s right! And this young lady is increasingly addicted to spending. As soon as she watches a live stream, it’s buy, buy, buy…”
“Indeed, there was so live stream preview yesterday. She yelled in the office, and when I went to take a look—goodness, a single hand mask was over 12 yuan!”
“Yeah, you know, even without applying anything, if your hands are dry and you rub them together, they can still look fair and clean… Just buy a bottle of hand cream and be done with it.”
However, one of the older sisters was tempted:
“These young people have so many ways to snatch up coupons. Every ti they buy sothing, they have to ask those people in the engineering departnt to help grab it for them, which proves it’s pretty popular… Why don’t we take a look today too?”
“Right, right, right, if it’s good, let’s also buy one to try. It’s just over 12 yuan, even a bone at the market costs more than that now.”
“Ah, you don’t understand!” soone persuaded them: “Now this is all that what-you-may-call-it marketing by the rchants, constantly saying it’s gone, it’s gone, always limited quantities…”
It’s true, but 12 yuan really isn’t expensive. A few people hesitated but couldn’t help asking, “Do you rember what that live stream room is called?”
“Of course, of course! The na is very morable. It’s called [Rural moirs].”
Everyone looked at each other, quickly fumbling around and downloading the APP while searching for it.
By the ti they registered and got in, there were only two minutes left until the announced start ti of the live broadcast.
“How co this is also a ‘Supporting Agriculture’ live stream?”
“No, no, this is a joint venture with another ‘Supporting Agriculture’ live stream room…”
“Oh, I get it, so two people are together advertising for this product.”
“Geez, all these fancy tricks…”
“I think it’s sowhat reliable. Look, the na says it’s the village secretary. A village secretary wouldn’t engage in deceit, right?”
“But that’s the village we’re talking about. If it’s sothing edible, it’s probably fine, but we’re talking about hand cream, can their village hygiene standards be up to par?”
“Pshaw! I’m applying it on my hands, not my face. Look, the preview says it’s freshly pressed from tea seeds, rich and oily – I love it oily…”
“Sa here, the hand creams that young girls like now are fragrant and not sticky, but they’re not moisturizing; they don’t do anything for my old hands…”
The group chatted while squatting and waiting for the live stream to start.
And just at that mont, the live stream began!
Xiao Yun perked up. She looked back at her seat and saw that the older sisters in the sa office were all sitting there focused and seed very absorbed.
Feeling guilty about her own slacking, she quickly went to the engineering departnt and said, “Uncle, you guys watch first, I’ll co over once it’s nearly sold out.”
Then she took her phone and snuck back to her seat, but halfway there a colleague stopped her:
“Xiao Yun, why can’t I enlarge the screen on this live stream room they’re collaborating with?”
“Exactly, exactly! Can’t the screen be split so we can see both people? Quick, help
adjust it.”
Oh boy! Xiao Yun took a closer look: How co they’re all in the [Rural moirs] and [Secretary Xiaozu Helping the Village rchandise] live stream rooms!
Her hidden gems, nooo!!!
Yet, still holding onto a sliver of hope, she asked, “What is this… just casually watching?”
The other person looked completely at ease: “I saw you always buying stuff from them, so I thought I’d take a look to see what’s different when I have so free ti.”
Xiao Yun: …
“Don’t leave the office address!” At this point, the live stream had already started, and hearing the familiar voice of Host Qiaoqiao, she could only hurriedly remind them:
“Leaving the office address can count as the sa IP, they won’t ship if there’s a limit on purchases!”
Huh?
Her colleagues were stunned: “Why is it so troubleso?”
“Yeah, yeah!” She tried her best to dissuade them: “This place has lots of rules, the stuff is expensive, and it’s pretty botherso… There’s no need, TikTok videos are much better to watch!”
The other person seed swayed, but just then, Qiaoqiao with her fluffy hat began smiling at the cara, her voice crisp and youthful!
“Hey, kids, good morning!”
