Chapter 919: 901. Tian Tian’s Business Experience

As for lodging fees of three thousand or not three thousand... to explain it with Wu Lan’s expression:

"Who are you disparaging!"

Who wouldn’t like a girl like Tian Tian! It’s just her family holding her back, otherwise she could have made a breakthrough on her own!

But then again, it might be precisely because of the pressure at home that her excellence gradually shines through.

At this moment, without Song Tan even needing to say anything, Wu Lan grandly gestures, "Just stay in the factory dormitory! Don’t mind that it’s only a four-person room, actually our place hasn’t hired anyone, and now that the workers are gone, no one’s there."

The single dormitories are also empty, but they lack amenities, not as convenient as the factory dormitory.

Tian Tian also smiled, "I knew it! I secretly brought clothes today!"

Speaking of clothes, Wu Lan exclaimed, "The clothes you picked are so nice! And those quilted cotton pants! Wait, I’ll get you a pair, wear them when you ride the motorcycle later! Saves you from freezing your legs!"

If initially Tian Tian was a bit reserved, from her bringing clothes directly to inquire, it’s clear now that she’s debt-free and genuinely carefree.

At this moment she’s not shy at all: "Alright Auntie, I was thinking during the winter vacation that my dad can’t ride a motorcycle now, so I didn’t buy any—I didn’t expect to now be taking advantage of your kindness."

What are you saying? $40 worth of things, and people take leave and go through the trouble to negotiate prices, without even talking about commission or anything like that.

Wu Lan hurriedly fetched a pair from the warehouse. Meanwhile, Song Tan handed over a roasted sweet potato, "Here, warm your hands."

Yeah, just taken off the stove, really quite warm. Tian Tian kept turning it over in her hands, sniffing the rich aroma, reluctant to let go:

"It really smells so good! Much more aromatic than the expensive ones my colleague bought—can I buy some sweet potato vine seedlings from you next year?"

"Sure!" Song Tan answered, "If there are extra seedlings next year, they will be sold, but just not cheap."

Tian Tian, having cautiously peeled and tasted a bite, eyes brightening: "I think it’s worth it! It makes sense that it’s expensive, such delicious sweet potatoes, even just selling one will definitely bring customers back, no worries about sales."

Sweet potatoes themselves are also good for storage, with not many customers, selling these is the safest.

Song Tan casually said, "No worries about selling out, Secretary Xiaozu plans to use the village’s name to set up a live streaming room. Last time Qiaoqiao helped to bring in traffic, already got two hundred thousand followers."

"You just boldly plant, no worries about sales."

Tian Tian’s eyes lit up, "I also plan to learn from others and set up an online store—live streaming is too narrow, many people don’t watch streams, and if it’s not engaging then there’s no stickiness. I’ve tried, and I’m not the type who can attract people when I talk."

"Promotion in live streaming is also quite expensive now."

Song Tan thought to herself that you are being too modest! Can a salesperson’s talk not be engaging?

But starting a live stream also indeed involves some mysterious tricks. It’s Qiaoqiao’s fate to be popular! Of course, his handsome face also plays a big part.

"So, what are you planning to do?" Tired of eating sweet potatoes, she now picked up a piece of spicy pumpkin dry. This one had some Sichuan pepper added, numb and spicy, eating it while drooling, unable to stop.

Without thinking, Tian Tian said, "Now many rural areas shoot videos, edit, and post them to platforms. Just need to invest some time to build up, more or less you’ll gain some followers."

As she slowly savored the taste of the sweet potato in her mouth, she became more certain: "Selling agricultural products, nothing beats quality in marketing! I want to do long-term business."

She said this, somewhat embarrassed, "Do you think, if I discuss with Secretary Xiaozu, and then communicate with the platform, could she help me get a certification like ’Yunqiao Village Villagers Cooperation’ or something?"

"After all, next year everyone in your village will definitely be planting your family’s crops, and when sold on a large scale, I want to get in on that."

Song Tan couldn’t help but laugh: "You just want to piggyback on the name? Next year, when my village starts selling on a large scale, you might as well ask the suppliers to collect directly from your home!"

Tian Tian hesitated for a moment, then decided to be truthful: "Then I... then I’d be too tied to the village’s quality, and all the channels depend on you... I don’t feel very secure."

If an online shop manages to sell just ten orders but gains repeat customers, that’s a success. The rest she has to manage by setting up a stall and negotiating collaborations—these customers are genuine.

Of course, it would be much harder than selling to a wholesaler.

People in the village might resort to deception and cutting corners, just like people anywhere else in the world.

Repeat customers? Are they as reliable as having cash in hand?

Song Tan’s expression grew serious, and he couldn’t help feeling distressed: "Why aren’t you an employee in my family business!"

It hurts so much! Who would understand?

Lady Tang was holding a sweet potato, her hands all dirty, having already forgotten her past of eating it from a clean white plate with a fork at home, baked in aluminum foil.

She just blurted out spontaneously, "Why wouldn’t it work?"

Then she turned to Tian Tian: "Girl, I’ve managed to understand a bit—you’re planning to start planting at your home to make money, right?"

"Yes." Tian Tian didn’t know who the woman clad in the floral cotton vest was—her pink down jacket had already been removed due to the heat from the fire.

But from the way she talked, Tian Tian knew she was no ordinary person and humbly nodded: "My parents are not in good health and might need a couple of years to recover, and my younger brother is still in high school. I stay at home to farm, keeping my parents busy too, and with Song Tan’s help, I earn as much as I would working outside."

Grandma Tang nodded, actually quite impressed with her: "I think you are very forward-thinking. Have you not considered that your family’s seedling channels also depend on Song Tan’s Home?"

"I’ve heard from Old Song that his family isn’t ambitious; they just want to grow enough for their own consumption—not really interested in becoming a specialized high-quality seedling base, even if it’s profitable."

She looked at Song Tan, who decisively shook his head—stick to the original intention, he is just in it for the food, what’s the point of creating a seedling base? It’s all just pure labor earnings!

There’s no personal benefit at all!

Then Grandma Tang said, "Well, Yunqiao Village has quite a number of people; how can you ensure that every time you will be able to buy the seedlings?"

Tian Tian was at a loss for words.

"To be honest, if I were Lao Song’s family, I wouldn’t reject you either, I’ve heard about your situation. It’s really good, no one would dislike you—but relying solely on sentiments is unreliable."

"There are many couples whose relationships have fractured, all wealthy and capable, but if you look at the overall numbers, very few actually file for divorce—do you know why?"

Why could it be?

Tian Tian, holding the sweet potato in her hand, grew solemn:

The whole world hustles and bustles, all for benefit’s sake.

The whole world busies about, all driven by profit’s allure.
