"Who is it?" Lu Qing asked impatiently.
"It's me, Uncle Wang." An old voice came from outside the door.
Lu Qing opened the door and saw Uncle Wang from the village standing there with a worried look on his face. "Qingzi, this is bad! Many people in the village have believed those rumors and are now afraid to buy our products!"
Uncle Wang's words were like a bolt from the blue, causing Lu Qing and Shen Qiqi's hearts to sink instantly.
They knew that this vicious competition had begun to affect the village's economy.
Shen Qiqi and Lu Qing looked at each other.
The two returned to the table, and the atmosphere became even more solemn.
The documents on the table seemed to have turned into a huge stone weighing thousands of pounds, pressing them down so hard that they couldn't breathe.
"These guys are so cruel!" Lu Qing said gritting his teeth, his fists clenched so tightly that his knuckles turned white.
Shen Qiqi's expression was also extremely ugly. She took a deep breath and tried to keep herself calm. "Don't worry, we will definitely find a way!"
However, things are more complicated than they imagined.
Malicious competitors not only lowered prices and snatched customers, but also spread all kinds of rumors, saying that the village's products had quality problems and even spread rumors that their products were made of inferior materials.
These rumors spread quickly in the village, and the villagers who did not know the truth began to talk about it, and some even began to doubt the abilities of Shen Qiqi and Lu Qing.
Lu Qing looked at the information and was shaking with anger.
The faces of those competitors are even more disgusting than rats in the gutter!
He slammed his fist on the table. "This is too much! I have to teach them a lesson!"
Shen Qiqi held Lu Qing's hand and shook her head gently, "Now is not the time to act impulsively. We need to stay calm and find a solution to the problem."
Lu Qing took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down.
He knew that Shen Qiqi was right. The most important thing now was to find a solution to the problem rather than act on impulse.
Shen Qiqi picked up the documents on the table and looked through them carefully, frowning.
"They are trying to force us into a dead end!" Shen Qiqi's voice was cold, and there was a murderous look in her eyes.
Lu Qing nodded. "That's right. They just want us to go bankrupt so they can monopolize the market."
"Humph, wishful thinking!" Shen Qiqi sneered, "It's still uncertain who will win!"
The two looked at each other again. They knew that the battle had just begun and they had to go all out to win the final victory.
Shen Qiqi put down the information in her hand and looked at Lu Qing firmly, "We can't just sit there and wait for death, we must take the initiative!"
Lu Qing nodded, his eyes flashing with determination, "Tell me, what should we do?"
The corners of Shen Qiqi's mouth rose slightly, revealing a confident smile, "Since they want to play, then we will play with them!"
She picked up a folder on the table and handed it to Lu Qing, "This is some information I collected about them, take a look first."
Lu Qing took the folder and looked through it carefully.
The room was silent, with only the sound of shuffling papers.
Suddenly, Lu Qing raised his head and looked at Shen Qiqi, "Qiqi, I have an idea..."
Under the old locust tree at the entrance of the village, several villagers gathered together, smoking their pipes with sad faces.
"Can this thing that the daughter-in-law of the Lu family is doing really succeed? Now the things can't be sold. I'm afraid I'll lose everything!" sighed a villager.
Another villager agreed: "That's right. I heard that those people from the city are trying to lower the price very hard. We can't sell our products at a good price to begin with. If they lower the price even more, how can we make any profit?" For a moment, voices of doubt and worry spread throughout the village.
Shen Qiqi walked on the way home, her steps a little heavy.
The villagers' gossip pierced her heart like needles.
She could feel that an oppressive atmosphere was slowly enveloping the entire village.
She clenched the cloth bag in her hand, feeling a pang of sadness in her heart.
Did I really do something wrong?
When she got home, she opened the door and saw Lu Qing at a glance.
He was sitting at the table, holding the product plan she had made earlier in his hand, his brows furrowed.
Seeing Shen Qiqi coming back, he quickly put down the plan and stood up to greet her.
"Qiqi, you're back." He said softly, with a hint of worry in his tone.
Shen Qiqi forced a smile and said nothing.
She walked to the table and sat down, her eyes falling on the plan on the table.
Lu Qing sat down beside her and gently held her hand.
"Don't worry, Qiqi, we will definitely get through this." His hands were warm and strong, as if they could inject infinite strength into her.
Shen Qiqi raised her head and looked into his determined eyes, a warm feeling welling up in her heart.
She held his hand, nodded, and said, "Yeah."
"Qiqi, I have an idea." Lu Qing suddenly said, with a gleam in his eyes.
"Instead of engaging in a price war with them, we should find another way. We won't make low-end products, but high-end ones! We should improve the quality and build our own brand!"
Hearing Lu Qing's words, Shen Qiqi's eyes lit up.
This is a bold idea, but also fraught with challenges.
"But this will increase the cost a lot..." She hesitated.
Lu Qing said firmly, "You can't catch a wolf without sacrificing a child! We must take a gamble! I believe that as long as the quality is strong enough, there will be no shortage of market!"
