Wind back to the farm

Chapter 140 The Service Store Opens

It's the season of pear blossoms blooming again, tens of thousands of old pear trees have tender green leaves and snow-white flowers, and the wind returns to the farm as beautiful as a fairyland.

Li Xia was sitting by the side of the flower path in the forest, with a little fox in his arms, a little fat pig wearing a red flower vest with a green background, squatting on his feet, and a majestic dog squatting on the left and right, looking at a group of animals on the opposite side. Guests took videos in various poses on the Lihua River embankment.

All the pear trees are planted on both sides of this section of the Pear Blossom River. At this moment, the sun is shining, and the branches of the old pear trees on both sides of the river are connected in the air, forming a pear blossom corridor more than ten kilometers long. The Pear Blossom River in the corridor is crystal clear. It flows slowly, and the guests can't move as soon as they get here.

Li Xia has just helped the three waves of guests to shoot a video for nearly half an hour. These guests did not know each other before Laifeng returned to the farm. After staying in the same inn for two days, they became friends. Running around, they hope to record all the beautiful moments of their return to the farm.

Li Xia was relatively free today—well, he was relatively free every day—so he helped those people casually.

"Dongkang, dongkang." Comfortably closing his eyes and resting his mind, he suddenly opened his eyes and yelled at Li Xia twice.

"Well, is it already ten o'clock?" Li Xia picked up his phone and looked at it. It was really not less than one minute, exactly ten o'clock. He felt that he had just sat down for a few minutes.

Li Xia looked at the two dogs: "It's time for Kangkang and Feifei to go to uncle and aunt's place for extra food, which one of you will take them there?"

Chuxia stood up: "Wang." Me.

Cang Ye and Chirp Chirp were the first to wake up, they were arranged by Bai Ze to follow Li Xia, and now they can transform at will, but they just like the image of a dog, and the appearance of a dog is similar to theirs in the chaos. When the original body is very close, they feel that this kind of body is more comfortable and more conducive to their divine power, so they have always disliked transforming into humans.

Li Xia nodded: "Okay, tell uncle and aunt, don't feed Kangkang too much, let's see how fat he becomes."

"Dongkang, dongkang, hum." Kangkang looked at Li Xia and expressed his dissatisfaction. He didn't think he was fat at all. His uncles, aunts, and grandparents all liked him, saying that his chubby appearance was a blessing. .

"Okay, not fat, eat whatever you want." Li Xia graciously followed Kang Kang's mouth.

Catalpa stretched his waist, shook his head, and jumped into the forest full of wild flowers with his younger siblings.

After Bird Garden was no longer open to tourists, Uncle and Aunt’s shop moved to the Zhuyuan Service Area in the East District, which was far away from here. Even though he knew that Kangkang was not as weak and childlike as it looked, Li Xia still felt that it should not be let so The two young ones walked so far by themselves, what if they met a tourist who suddenly went crazy?

Even a strong lunatic might not be able to really hurt Feifei and Kangkang, but conversely, it would be troublesome for Feifei and Kangkang to bring the tourists down, so it would be more reassuring to let the mature and stable God Cangxi follow.

Gouzi has rich experience in attacking people. In his own farm, even if he gets angry again, he will leave a sigh of relief.

Watching the backs of the three disappear, Li Xia stroked Shan Xia's hair: "Let's go home? We've been sitting for a while."

Shanxia jumped up, and one person and one dog strolled towards the village.

Huaijiang went to Qinghe to apply for his own property certificate, and Xiao Zhi was invited to go to the Affiliated Hospital of Jiushang University to do an operation for someone who was the younger brother of Wang Feng's (Wang Shuxing's father) best friend's father-in-law , that man was suffering from a malignant tumor. He was originally treated in the capital city. He heard about Xiao Zhi there, so he transferred to Jiushang. The family brought together the friend's father-in-law and the friend himself to find various requests from Wang Feng's family.

Wang Feng couldn't stand the person who was dozens of years older than him kneel down and begged, and agreed to ask for help.

Li Xia sensed the information related to the Great God Bai Ze in advance, and told him, Xiao Zhi looked at the past of that person, when Wang Feng asked Li Xia through Wang Shuxing's WeChat, Xiao Zhi replied directly: Yes, but he can't Tell the third person about the operation, and he does not guarantee that the operation will be successful.

There are laws in the way of heaven, God Bai Ze does not want to interfere too much with the affairs of the human race, and if he has to intervene, he will not use the power of God at will.

Early this morning, Xiao Zhi went to Jiushang, and took away Shen Houren and Gongbao who wanted to go to the mall to deliver fruits to Li Chen.

Li Chen successfully graduated early and became a graduate student of Qi Songxing. Now at Jiushang University, she will definitely go home on weekends. She can often find reasons to go home even if it is not on weekends. But even so, Shen Houren, Gong Bao, and Yi Mian are still I often find excuses to deliver meals to her.

Good friends and old employees were not around, so it was boring to go outing alone. Li Xia decided to go home and read some books. In fact, watching grandma make bamboo flutes was quite interesting.

Walking to the gate of the village, I met a kindergarten teacher leading a group of little guys looking at the carvings on the stone door frame. When they saw Li Xia, the big and small shouted together: "Brother Huami."

Li Xia smiled and nodded: "Let's play, whoever can draw the monster on it, I will give him a bunch of candied haws."

"Wow, I can, I can." The children shouted one after another. They all knew that although they were all hawthorns that grew in the bird garden, the candied haws made by Brother Huami was especially delicious.

Li Xia left with a smile: "Don't brag, just draw it."

Two teachers asked from behind: "Brother Huami, does it count if we draw it?"

Li Xia said cruelly: "Of course it doesn't count, you don't have a hundred, and you still eat candied haws."

The two girls stomped their feet: "Who stipulated that you can't eat candied haws when you grow up? Brother Huami, you engage in age discrimination."

Li Xia waved his hands with a smile, not to tangle with the two of them.

The two girls are both from Dajiling. They studied early childhood education at university. Because they like Dajiling, they chose to come back to become teachers after graduation. Li Chen is now envious of these two.

What they eat every day is food from the farm. A bunch of candied haws is a completely different concept to them and the guests. The two girls are just joking.

Shan Xia said to Li Xia, "Wow, woof."

Li Xia patted his head: "What kind of candied haws do you eat as a dog?"

Sugishita: "Wow woof woof woof."

Li Xia: "Dogs just can't eat candied haws. You've seen many dogs. Have you ever seen one holding candied haws to eat?"

Sugishita: "Oh."

Li Xia was about to continue arguing with Gouzi, when he turned around and saw the small supermarket, Qi Yaohui was holding a big cloth bag, and was saying to the fourth grandma who was passing by: "Hehe, I'm not going to drop by, these are all expired items. I have already separated them by type and sent them to the garbage station."

Li Xia was stunned, patted Shan Xia to stop, he stood there and waited for a while, and when he saw Qi Yaohui came back with an empty bag, he pretended to be looking for him and walked over.

Qi Yaohui was very happy to see Li Xia: "Hua Mi, why are you so idle?"

Li Xia said: "I'm not free, I have something to look for you."

Qi Yaohui was happy: "Then tell me quickly, it's not easy to be able to help you."

Li Xia said: "Uncle Yaohui like this, the guests keep mentioning that they finally came to our farm and didn't even have a souvenir or anything. I just wanted to open a shop, which is a service center like other scenic spots. , Let my grandma and the others make some small things to sell in it, and my grandpa and the others, it’s okay to learn carving from Master Zhengyang, and the things they carve are also put in.

But the customers of the farm come from all over the country, and there are all kinds of eccentricities. This shop needs to find an experienced person to run it. After thinking about it, I think you can do it. "

Qi Yaohui looked at Li Xia for a while, and laughed "hehe": "Flower fan, you don't need to go around in circles, uncle knows, you are seeing that the business in my small supermarket is bleak, and you want to find me a job to give me some income."

Li Xia was a little embarrassed: "There are only so few people in our village, and your supermarket can barely maintain a balance. Now the whole village eats and drinks from the farm, and the products in your supermarket have been overwhelmed. Yue can't sell many things, right?"

Qi Yaohui smiled and said: "Yes, but, Huami, this is not how the account is calculated. Our whole village does not need money for food and drink now, and I am the same. It means that you are supporting our whole village and our family." The food I get from the farm is worth much more than what I earned before. Even if I don’t do anything, I can’t be hungry or thirsty. Compared with before, I am now more relaxed and at ease. I didn’t close this small supermarket. I am a villager. Occasionally need to buy something, not rely on it to support the family."

Li Xia said: "But besides eating and drinking, you have other needs, and those needs cost money."

Qi Yaohui said: "The [-] catties of food you share with us each year is not enough to eat. We have a lot of family members. I sold the extra. It is enough for our family to squander for a year. What's more, my dad is still retired. Jin, Wenhua also worked last year, earning less than [-] yuan a month."

Wenhua is Qi Yaohui's daughter, and now works in a trading company in Jiushang.

Li Xia said: "Two different things, Uncle Yaohui, you are so young, you must have something to do."

Almost all middle-aged people in Dajiling work outside. Qi Yaohui, like Qi Zeda, Qi Dexian, and Qi Xiuxian, is a person who is particularly fond of Dajiling. He also worked outside after graduating from university, but he resigned within three years. , similar to Qi Xiuxian, but he doesn't understand financial investment, so he can't make a lot of money sitting at home like Qi Xiuxian.

Qi Yaohui thought for a moment, then nodded: "Flower fan, if you really need to open a store, and you really think that uncle can do it, then I will do it. If you have other reasons, uncle can't go."

Li Xia took out his mobile phone and opened the official website forum to show him. There were several posts calling for the farm to release souvenirs, each of which was hundreds of stories high.

Qi Yaohui returned the phone to Li Xia: "Come on, that uncle is going to clean up this place and is going to help you open a store."

Li Xia breathed a sigh of relief.

The store was originally dispensable, but now, he feels that there must be a store.

Saying goodbye to Qi Yaohui, Li Xia and Shan Xia went straight to Fox Rabbit Willow. There were exposed tree roots everywhere on both sides of the dry river washed by the rain. Li Xia broke two big bundles in a short while.

This is the employee's back garden, and there are no outsiders. Li had an idea, and two bundles of tree roots disappeared from his eyes and appeared in front of the door of the utility room at No. 39.

Grandma was sitting under the old tree and was polishing a piece of bamboo. When she felt something, she came out and took a look. She saw two bundles of tree roots and cursed softly: "Little bastard, aren't you afraid of outsiders at home?"

After a while, there was another movement outside. Grandma came over to see two bales of grass.

Grandma couldn't bear it any longer, and asked into the air, "Why did Hua Mini bring so much grass home?"

Li Xia quietly appeared next to his grandma, and Shan Xia next to him carried a bag of hawthorns on his back, produced by Shenyizuka.

Li La led the old lady back to the backyard, and told her about her plan.

Grandma nodded: "You are right. Yaohui's small supermarket was originally open well, but the farm stopped doing business after it opened. He is still young, so we have to find him a job to earn money."

Li Xia happily told his grandma about his souvenir opening plan.

The fox rabbit willow's roots are bathed in the supernatural power of Chongming God for a very short time. After making small carvings, let Feifei and Kang Kang play as toys for a few days, and then sell them as souvenirs. Those tree root carvings that Li Xia originally gave to Uncle Qi Zhengyang The things that came out were kept as gifts for Shen Jiuzhou.

The grasses of sparrow garden and fox rabbit willow are mixed to weave small cages and baskets. Baubles carved from tree roots can be worn anywhere, while baskets and baskets are suitable for home use.

Li Xia finally said: "Grandma, the bamboo flute you make is a high-end product, which directly raises the specifications of our service store. You have to work hard to prevent the store from running out of stock."

Continuous delivery is impossible.

The night before the opening of the store, Yi Mian posted the notice on the farm's official website, and Huai Jiang verbally notified all the more than 6000 guests in the farm.

There was an uproar on the forum first.

In the past, all the old tourists could get were ingredients. No matter how careful the calculations were, they would definitely be gone within half a year. The souvenirs launched by the farm this time can be kept for many years.

Like every time the farm launched new measures in the past, the old customers jointly built high-rise buildings and asked the farm to open an online sales channel for souvenirs.

The customers in the garden are gearing up and vowing to grab one.

The service store is located on Qingda Road near the north gate of the farm. Because the products available for sale are limited, and considering that many customers return to the inn after playing until midnight, a considerable number of customers have not been able to book the inn and chicken crowing of the farm. At night, I will go to the hotel in Qinghe County or Jiushang to stay in the hotel. The opening time of the store is set at ten o'clock in the morning.

The opening ceremony was very simple. Huaijiang announced the opening of the store with one sentence. Qilang, Wenyan, Zhuozhuo, Chuchu, Qingyao, and a group of half-grown children ignited firecrackers, and hundreds of bamboo poles tied with red silk cloth strips After ringing for 3 minutes, the ceremony is over.

As soon as the red silk curtain on the store door was lifted, customers poured in.

Eight minutes later, store shelves were empty.

Sitting on an old pear tree in Fox Rabbit Willow, Li Xia said to Xiao Zhi beside him, "I thought no one would want those wooden beads."

Uncle Qi Zhengyang led a group of old men, including Grandpa Li, to work overtime to make wooden beads larger than soybeans, without any artistry, just a round piece of wood with a hole drilled in the middle, priced at 500 yuan Li Xia waited for the tourists to scold him for his black heart, but in the end, there was not one left, and they were all robbed.

Xiao Zhi said: "Are you so unconfident about your farm?"

On the forum on the official website, potential tourists and former tourists were once again bombed, because all the guests who snatched things came up and posted pictures to show off.

[Wahahahahahaha, my mother snatched a flute, a bamboo flute, a bamboo flute made of bamboo that winds back to the farm, wahahahaha, my mother already has a premonition that she is about to reach the pinnacle of life, earn 3000 yuan a day, and marry Gao Fushuai up]

Look, the jade-like color of the bamboo flute, look, the wonderful body of the bamboo flute, look, the moving curve of the bamboo flute... Hahahaha, when I get home, I will find someone to make a niche for the bamboo flute. It will definitely bring me good luck, and I will get the next appointment soon]

1L: [The host, can you be more greedy?You are already in Fenghui Farm, and you have snatched such an awesome souvenir, but you are still not satisfied, and now you want to grab the next spot? 】

2L: [Original poster, I am a professional flute soloist, do you sell bamboo flutes?The price is up to you. 】

3L: [I'm here to rub the landlord's luck]

4L: [For good luck, make the landlord bald]

……

The next few hundred floors are all lucky.

[Grab a small flower, it's so cute, show it to everyone]

Main building: [The landlord is lucky, he grabbed a small flower and put it up so that everyone can enjoy good luck together

……

It’s so clever and clumsy, I just realized the essence of this sentence today, it’s a very simple craft, but it’s extremely cute, and the flowers are very vivid, really, it feels like it’s alive, and it feels like the flowers are blooming in the bottom of my heart]

1L: [I'm so envious of the host, I went to line up in front of the store before seven o'clock, and I didn't get anything. There are too few items, only three bamboo flutes; sixty flowers and gourds, I didn't dare to grab them , Thinking that there are more small beads, 130 three, the chance is relatively high, but I still haven't grabbed it. 】

2L: [I wanted to snatch the straw basket but I didn't get it, I'm angry.jpg]

3L: [There are a total of [-] knitting classes, which is really too small. On the first day of opening, there must be three to five hundred for the first day, right? 】

4L: [In other scenic spots, all kinds of souvenirs are layered on top of each other. I can't wait to collapse the shelves. It's good to go back to the farm. There are only a few shelves, and there are so few things scattered, alas...]

5L: [I don't understand what Feng Zhuang is thinking. The investment in the farm must be astronomical. When will you get back the money if you don't make more money?A basket that can be woven from a handful of grass sells for 8800, a profitable business, you should weave more and sell it]

6L: [Am I the only one here to take advantage of the landlord's happiness?Ceng Ceng Ceng Ceng Ceng Ceng Ceng Ceng Ceng Ceng Ceng Ceng a 30-day reservation quota】

……

[Hi Da Pu Ben, the host grabbed a small basket, it’s so cute, it’s only 9800, hahaha, send it to the big guy Kangkang]

……

The forum is boiling.

There was no sound in the service store, and it took Qi Yaohui a while to come back to his senses. He looked at the empty shelves and asked Huaijiang helplessly, "Do I work for 10 minutes on this shift and take a break for half a month?"

Grandma is the only one who can make a flute, and she can only make one in half a month.

The only ones who know how to weave straw are the fourth grandma and the seventh grandma. They heard that they are sold in the store, and they want to represent the image of Fenghui Farm. Each one is more meticulous than the other, and they can't weave one a day.

Needless to say about Uncle Qi Zhengyang, carving is the most difficult.

What's more, Uncle Qi Zhengyang and the others also have ideas in their hearts. They can feel the difference in Lixia. The old people don't talk about it, but they have made up their minds. Things must be exquisite and exquisite, so as to avoid quality and price. Not quite, as time goes by, the happiness of this child of Huami will be lost. The second is to save raw materials. Any resource is limited. We must live within our means from the beginning, and we cannot wait until the resources are exhausted one day before regretting.

Therefore, even if it is the simplest bead to carve, you can't produce many in a day. It will take at least half a month to collect enough batches to put the shelves in a good shape.

Huaijiang was directly involved in the sale just now, and there were too many people, if Qi Yaohui was the only one to receive the reception, the counter would be crushed.

Facing the empty shelves, he was also very worried.

He set the price, and he knew that as long as it was produced by Fenghui Farm, he would not worry about selling it at ten times the current price. However, those gadgets looked very ordinary, and it was really inappropriate for the price to be too high. He doesn't care about public opinion, but he doesn't want the farm to be misunderstood on the Internet.

Sighing, Huaijiang said to Qi Yaohui: "Uncle, your task is to sell the souvenirs. As for the working hours, you can control them flexibly. The boss didn't ask me to set a time for you."

Qi Yaohui said: "Okay, I'll just learn how to carve from Uncle Zhengyang, so that I can have a few more items when the time comes, and let the door open for an extra three to two minutes."
