The night is as dark as ink, dotted with stars.
The tranquility of the Lu family courtyard was broken by a rapid knock on the door.
"Who is it?" Lu Qing's voice was filled with a hint of caution.
"Lu Qing, Qiqi, something bad has happened..." The old village chief's anxious cry came from outside the door, like a bolt of thunder out of the blue, instantly dispelling the silence of the night.
Shen Qiqi and Lu Qing looked at each other, and an ominous premonition surged in their hearts.
The two men walked quickly to the door and opened it. The old village chief stood there panting, and the wrinkles on his face seemed to have deepened a little.
"Hurry... hurry and check it out, something big has happened!"
The two followed the old village chief and hurried to the village office. In the simple room, the lights were dim, reflecting the solemn faces of Shen Qiqi and Lu Qing.
A thick account book was spread out on the table, and the densely packed numbers were like snarling devils, gnawing at their hearts.
"This...what's going on?" Lu Qing's voice trembled slightly. He stared at the shocking red numbers in the account book, and his heart seemed to be pressed by a huge rock.
Shen Qiqi pursed her lips, frowned, and scanned every page of the account with eyes as sharp as a knife.
The data were like sharp knives, stabbing her heart.
The financial attack from international forces is more ferocious than imagined.
The exchange rate was like a wild horse running wildly. The prices of the village's products in the international market plummeted like a roller coaster, and orders dropped to a freezing point.
"These old fools!" Shen Qiqi couldn't help but curse in a low voice, and a chill ran down her spine.
The atmosphere in the office was like the calm before the storm, so depressing that it made people breathless.
Lu Qing held Shen Qiqi's hand, conveying silent support, "Don't be afraid, I'm here." Lu Qing's voice was firm and powerful, like a beam of light, illuminating the darkness.
They knew that this was a tough battle, a battle that concerned the fate of the entire village.
They must stand up like warriors and defend the interests of all villagers.
The villagers also felt the crisis. They gathered at the entrance of the village, whispering to each other, with worry written all over their faces.
Panic spread like a plague.
Shen Qiqi looked at those anxious faces, took a deep breath, and tried to calm herself down.
She understood that she couldn't panic, she had to find a way to break the deadlock in order to lead everyone out of the predicament.
She stared at the constantly jumping data, calculating rapidly in her mind. Each number was like a lock, tightly blocking their way out.
All she has to do is find the key and open the door to this dilemma.
Lu Qing has always been by Shen Qiqi's side. He knows that Shen Qiqi is not the kind of person who gives up easily.
Shen Qiqi slowly raised her head and looked at Lu Qing. The corners of her mouth rose slightly, revealing a mysterious smile. Then she lowered her head and continued to study the account book, muttering softly, "We can't simply stabilize the exchange rate..."
Shen Qiqi's slender fingers danced on the account book, like a general commanding thousands of troops, deploying troops and making plans.
"Instead of passively taking a beating, it's better to take the initiative!" She slammed the account book shut, her eyes gleaming with confidence.
"We won't compete with them on price, we'll compete on quality!" Shen Qiqi said firmly, "We'll launch a combination of products and focus on differentiated competition!"
The villagers looked at each other in confusion, wondering what this "combination punch" was.
Everyone looked at each other, their faces full of confusion.
Someone murmured, "How can this be done? Our ancestors have never done this!"
Seeing this, Lu Qing quickly stepped forward to explain, "Qiqi means that we shouldn't just sell individual products, but also sell them in pairs! For example, our bamboo baskets can be paired with our free-range eggs to create a 'harvest gift box'; our straw crafts can be paired with our medicinal herbs to create a 'health gift pack'..."
Lu Qing's in-depth and simple explanation made the villagers gradually understand Shen Qiqi's intentions.
Although they were still a little nervous, seeing how confident Shen Qiqi and Lu Qing were, everyone decided to give it a try.
Then the village became lively again.
Following Shen Qiqi's instructions, the villagers combined and matched various products to design various novel gift boxes.
For a moment, the village was filled with laughter and joy, as if it had returned to the harvest season.
The new product portfolio caused a sensation in the international market as soon as it was launched.
Customers who were originally deterred by price fluctuations were deeply attracted by these unique gift boxes and placed orders one after another.
Orders came in like snowflakes and soon exceeded the previous number.
"It's done!" Shen Qiqi jumped up excitedly as she looked at the ever-increasing orders.
"I knew you could do it!" Lu Qing hugged Shen Qiqi into his arms, his excitement evident in words.
The village was in an uproar!
The villagers sang and danced to celebrate this hard-won victory.
They looked at the piles of orders with happy smiles on their faces.
They won this battle!
Late at night, Shen Qiqi and Lu Qing stood side by side at the village entrance, looking at the flickering lights in the distance. Shen Qiqi suddenly said, "This battle is not over yet..."
There are undercurrents in the international financial market.
How could those international forces that were beaten to a pulp by Shen Qiqi swallow this insult?
They gnashed their teeth, like a cat whose tail was stepped on, wishing they could eat Shen Qiqi alive.
No, they secretly colluded with several notorious financial oligarchs and prepared to impose an economic blockade on Shen Qiqi and her village, completely finishing them off!
