Chapter 1000: 980. Will it work next time?

Brother Xiaozhang didn’t come, but Song Tan still had to find time to make a trip to the urban area.

She needed to drive and take some things to the Imperial City, especially several boxes of strawberry packaging; otherwise, it wouldn’t hold up until delivery. And watermelons, it’s winter, they must be wrapped well too.

Also, whatever the house had to offer, she had to bring because it was too cold to put them in the truck bed; just in case, they could only be stuffed in the back seat.

Song Tan regretfully said, "I was originally planning to take a few bags of sheep manure and earthworm castings to the Imperial City... Forget it, planning to rent a car makes it hard to carry them; we’ll invite him to the pig slaughter feast and let him carry it himself."

Xin Jun was preparing a lesson next to her, listening to her mumbling plans by the stove, couldn’t help but look up with a strange expression—

"Do you remember he gave you flowers?"

"I remember!"

Song Tan was quite fresh: "Those flowers were pretty, I was just about to ask if they were easy to grow? If so, I’ll plant some in the flower bed next year."

Much better than her mom’s favorites, the Crape Myrtle, Canna, and Dahlia! Not that she looked down on these flowers, but every household in the village grows such things, there’s no novelty at all.

Even if she went to the mountains and planted a Golden Sakura, it would be fresher climbing and blooming over walls than those flowers!

Xin Jun closed his eyes: "The flowers he gave you, not only were the colors exceptionally matched, but the shapes were also crafted well, even down to a water reservoir stand at the bottom. The bouquet could be placed casually on the table, pour some water in, and it would keep a good half-month of bloom!"

That was early summer! It was clear that the person arranging the flowers had carefully selected even the size of the buds and the state of bloom.

"Even the wrapping paper was a newspaper style, beautifully tied... These flowers were personally cut from his garden, sent to you, you think with such taste, going with a load of cow and sheep dung in one hand and earthworm castings in the other to say thank you in the Imperial City, is appropriate?"

From an aesthetic point of view, it’s not quite matched, but...

"For a flower grower, it’s said they get really into buying pots, soil, and fertilizers; wouldn’t this be a gift that hits the spot?"

Song Tan had also done her research.

"I know." Xin Jun quipped, "I’m not stopping you from giving gifts; it’s good to hit the spot with a gift. But can you refrain from returning gifts right after?"

Song Tan: ...

"Is practicality not good enough... Okay, okay, next time for sure!"

She didn’t quite understand artistic youth, and switched to a painful topic at this moment: "Honestly, should we invite your parents for the pig slaughter feast during the New Year? You can only hide it for so long."

"You won’t be able to invite them." Xin Jun spoke frankly, "My mom is a workaholic, business is good during New Year’s, she won’t come no matter what."

The busier she is, the happier she gets, and the more tired, the more energetic! From her hometown here and back, it would take a day’s travel at least, she definitely wouldn’t agree.

"As for my career..." Xin Jun had figured it out, "She won’t be able to let go of her job within ten years, and if I resign, I fear in three years I won’t be able to keep up with your Yunqiao Agriculture Development Co., Ltd."

The Agriculture Development Co., Ltd. was put in place after applying for a personal farm, with Secretary Xiaozu helping arrange the application. With this registered company, reporting projects would be simpler in the future.

But Song Tan shook her head: "Teacher Xin, don’t be too modest, you’re irreplaceable in our family—Qiaoqiao seems willing to study for a lifetime."

Now she’s turned into a capitalist, making efforts at the end of the year: "Next year, all your salaries will increase!"

Xin Jun laughed: "Alright, thank you, boss! Just to say, I’m only taking a week off for the New Year—before the New Year, I’ll need to tidy up the dormitory on the mountain, which was promised to me."

Not only him, but Zhang Yanping also had one; this was because Wu Lan was considerate, fearing it would be inconvenient for them to date or invite some friends at their home.

However...

"Tidying is one thing, but meals still have to be eaten at home."

Xin Jun nodded, "Don’t worry, I absolutely won’t feel embarrassed about that."

...

And at this moment, in Qiaoqiao’s live streaming room—

[Ahhhh, what did I just hear!!!]

[Year-end giveback! The streamer even has this kind of thing!!]

[I don’t mind, I don’t mind! Whoever minds, please send the giveback gift to me, thank you.]

[Ahhh darling, aunty loves you! I love radishes.]

[To be honest, I don’t like radishes, but this time I must grab some!]

[Ten thousand portions... My god, the Unlucky Person is crying with joy!]

[Although there’s a limit on purchases, I’ve already called all the relatives to bring out their phones...]

[Damn, damn it all, the ones in front don’t snatch my share!]

[... Did I just pop in to hear this is free radishes here?]

[Wow! Looking at the announcement, it’s still 9.9... Radishes at the market only cost a few cents!]

[Not free, not free, high price 9.9]

[Yes, yes, go to the market, it’s just a few cents a pound, go quickly]

[To explain to new fans, I have money, I earn four thousand bucks a month, I look down on market radishes]

[To explain to new fans, I have no money, but it’s the end of the year and I plan to buy an expensive radish as a treat]

[...???]

The live chat was bustling, and the keen fans had already fallen silent. Qiaoqiao, knowing nothing, had arrived at the mountain, showing everyone a lush green vegetable field:

"I was planning to take the kids to see strawberries, the ones in the greenhouse are ripe, so sweet and fragrant, smell so good!"

"But my sister said everyone was so nice to me, she wanted to send a gift at the year-end. Collecting money was just to make it easier to process the order addresses... Kids, if you don’t like radishes, you don’t have to buy them."

"Alright then!" He saw Zhang Yanping’s nodding signal nearby, and skillfully announced: "The link is up!"

Meanwhile, Tian Tian was at home, holding the computer, staring at the backend, watching the order numbers jumping up, dizzying, seemingly endless...

"Wow..." It was her first time handling this business, and she was in awe.

And Qiaoqiao zoomed out with the camera: "Look, mom has brought the aunts from the village to pull radishes!"

"But kids, this time the radishes sent won’t have radish leaves. My sister said the express takes too long and they won’t be fresh; old radish leaves don’t taste good and add weight..."

He sighed empathetically: "The shipping is too expensive."

But there were no more comments, as everyone had instantly clicked into Taotao Treasure’s link, and Zhang Yanping, monitoring the livestream’s backend, saw someone messaging.

[Hello, I’m the person in charge of the Xiaohuangcar operation on xx streaming platform, is it convenient to communicate by phone?]

The stout big guy raised an eyebrow, glanced at Qiaoqiao, and inquired about the cut and benefits of the Xiaohuangcar on this platform, his mind whirring, he decisively gave the number:

"Sure, this is my phone number."

Meanwhile, Xiaohuangcar’s operator, staring at the continuously jumping numbers in the backend, saw the reply and exhaled heavily—

This up-and-coming streamer’s sales are not fixed, but once the link is up, the transactions are astonishingly large. With such immense wealth, why insist on sticking exclusively to Taotao Treasure? Isn’t their platform’s Xiaohuangcar already convenient and efficient enough?
