Chapter 853: Cooperation and Getting Rich
It was not only Song Dashun who was surprised and excited about this, but also Du Juan.
Du Juan quickly asked, "Doctor Chu, where can I buy this new variety you mentioned in the city? Is it expensive?"
In her mind, she probably already started calculating how many chicks of new breeds she could buy with the money her family had saved.
Song Dashun nodded repeatedly, his eyes shining as if he saw the hope of a new life, and he was looking forward to Chu Yue's answer.
Chu Yue gave them an even more surprising answer.
"I can buy you chicks of a new breed. I'll give you ten at first, free of charge. I'll give them to you for free."
"free?!"
Song Dashun and Du Juan said in unison, staring at Chu Yue in amazement, as if they had heard a fairy tale.
But Chu Yue's serious expression definitely showed that she was not joking with them.
If it’s free, it’s free.
For the same batch of ten chicks, just wait for them to grow up, lay eggs, and incubate them patiently and carefully. You will have chicks within two months and there is no need to worry about any problems afterwards.
What Chu Yue gave them for free was more than just ten chicks; it was an opportunity to make a lot of money.
Seeing the young couple stunned and full of curiosity yet too cautious to ask, Chu Yue simply spoke directly.
"The new breed of chicks are free, but I have other needs. I want you to make an effort. It's an equal exchange, mutually beneficial."
After hearing this, Song Dashun and Du Juan, who had been frightened, felt relieved.
They didn't intend to take advantage of anyone, and Chu Yue saved their lives, so it was even more unacceptable.
Song Dashun puffed out his chest and said, "Doctor Chu, just tell me what you want me to do. I, Song Dashun, have nothing but strength. Even if you don't give me the chicken, I will definitely do my best to do it."
Du Juan also said, "Doctor Chu, my husband and I owe you a debt, and we've made you stay in the village to take care of us. We can't repay you enough. We can do anything for you. Just tell us."
Chu Yue raised the corners of her lips and said with a gentle look in her eyes, "I want you to be mountain goods merchants."
…
"...Ayue, do you mean to let Song Dashun collect the mountain products from each household in the village first, and then he will be responsible for transporting them out of the mountain and selling them to you, and you can then sell these mountain products in the city?" After listening to Chu Yue's story, Song Hongmei sorted out the general transaction process.
"Sister Song, that's right." Chu Yue said.
This was a few hours after Chu Yue talked with Song Dashun and his wife, and the two sides reached a preliminary cooperation intention.
But such a big thing, coupled with the background of a special era, was not something Chu Yue could decide alone, so after dinner, Chu Yue invited Song Hongmei, Song Dashun and Du Juan to sit down and talk in detail.
Chu Yue explained carefully, "Sister Song, people in the city love to eat mountain products, such as wild vegetables and game. People in the village also want to take their products to the city to sell for money. There is a supply and demand relationship between the two sides. It's just that the road from the mountains to the city is too far and too difficult to travel, so such good products from the village cannot be sent out."
"I rented a shop in the city and opened a grocery store, which can free up some space to sell these mountain products. Song Dashun is responsible for purchasing them in the village and then transporting them to my store. I am responsible for sales in the city, and he is responsible for purchasing and transportation. In this way, we each do our job and complete our respective strengths."
Song Hongmei listened and the corners of her eyes moved in disbelief.
Chu Yue actually has a shop in the city?
Such a big thing, and she didn't even know about it.
Apart from this unknown thing, the cooperation model that Chu Yue mentioned not only connects the supply and demand sides, but also allows each side to perform its own duties and disperse risks.
Song Hongmei lowered her eyes slightly, pondered carefully for a moment, then raised her eyes and said solemnly, "I think your idea is feasible! I do so much rural work to lead my fellow villagers out of poverty and into prosperity, to make more money and improve their lives! There are no roads in the mountains, so even if they have good things, they can't sell them. The villagers can only be self-sufficient and can't make any money. In years with poor harvests, every household has to save food, and in the past, some people even starved to death. If you can help my fellow villagers make money, I support you doing this!"
Chu Yue smiled, "Sister Song, thank you!"
The people who were more excited and happier at this time were Song Dashun and Du Juan. They were extremely grateful to Song Hongmei.
"Director Song, it's great to have your support! In the past few years, the village has been cracking down on speculators, and we didn't even dare to go to the black market. When Doctor Chu told us this earlier, I was excited, but I was also afraid, afraid that someone would report us."
Song Dashun has a straightforward personality. He doesn't hide anything and expresses all his worries.
He laughed heartily, scratching the back of his head and saying, "Director Song, I'm relieved to hear you say that! With your words, I'm not breaking discipline."
"It's definitely not a violation of discipline. You just follow Ah Yue and work hard to make money. The rich will help the poor, so that everyone in the village can make money and live a good life. As for Village Chief Lu, don't worry. I will do Village Chief Lu's job."
"Thank you! Director Song, thank you so much!"
Song Dashun and Du Juan looked at each other with bright smiles on their faces. They originally thought that a chicken plague had ruined their hard work last year, but they didn't expect that there would be a turn of events and they would meet the noble person Chu Yue.
Opportunities in life come unexpectedly, really catching us off guard.
After the negotiation was finalized, Song Dashun and Du Juan held hands and went back to the house happily.
After they left, Song Hongmei was finally able to talk to Chu Yue.
Song Hongmei asked, "Ayue, when did you rent the store?"
"It was after the New Year. The shop was still being cleaned up and hadn't officially opened yet, so I didn't tell anyone. Sister Song, I didn't mean to hide it. You're the third person to know."
Song Hongmei shook her head. She didn't care about these things. She was just cautious after working for a long time. She continued to ask, "Does Captain Lu know?"
"I know. Zhan Lin supports me doing this. He is afraid that I will be idle in the compound. It is good to have something I like. We also paid for the rent of the shop together." When Chu Yue mentioned Lu Zhan Lin, her pretty eyebrows were silently gentle, with a charm that she herself was not aware of.
Seeing this, Song Hongmei smiled, her tone clearly relieved. "What about the documents? Have they been processed? If you have any questions, let me know and I'll take care of them. You can lead the villagers to improve their lives. This is a good thing and I fully support it."
"Sister Song, don't worry, I've taken care of that." Chu Yue paused and whispered, "It was the young master of the Pei family who helped."
Song Hongmei blurted out in surprise, "Pei family..."
