The village chief came running in panting, breaking this seemingly peaceful and prosperous scene.
"Qiqi, Lu Qing, something happened!" His voice was filled with obvious panic, like a stone thrown into a calm lake, instantly causing ripples.
Shen Qiqi and Lu Qing's hearts tightened at the same time, and an ominous premonition came to their minds.
The two looked at each other and saw worry in each other's eyes.
They walked quickly towards the village chief and asked anxiously, "Village chief, what happened?"
The village chief gasped, "I've received news! Those international guys are going to attack our village! They're messing with our economy and trying to bring us down!"
In an instant, the originally bustling scene in the market seemed to be muted, and a tense atmosphere filled the air.
The villagers stopped what they were doing and looked at each other, their faces filled with anxiety and confusion.
Although they didn't understand international economics, the word "ruin" made their hearts tremble.
Shen Qiqi and Lu Qing looked solemn, as if they were facing a great enemy.
They are well aware of the importance of economic stability to a village. Once the economy collapses, the village's development will suffer a devastating blow.
Shen Qiqi frowned, and a layer of gloom covered her originally bright eyes. She looked around and found that the villagers all had worried faces.
Over the next few days, the situation took a sharp turn for the worse.
International forces began to manipulate the market, and the prices of the village’s main products, such as local eggs, mountain products, and crops, plummeted, and sales also plummeted.
The once bustling market is now deserted as if its soul has been sucked out. Only a few people are left setting up stalls, but no one is interested in buying.
Shen Qiqi stood in the empty market, looking at the mountains of unsaleable products, her heart burning with anxiety, as if there was a fire burning in it.
She felt like a huge rock was pressing on her chest and she couldn't breathe.
"Don't panic, Qiqi, I'm here!" Lu Qing held Shen Qiqi's hand tightly, trying to give her strength.
He was also anxious in his heart, but he still tried to remain calm. His eyes were firm and steady, like a towering mountain, and he was Shen Qiqi's strongest backing.
Looking at Lu Qing's determined eyes, Shen Qiqi's heart calmed down a little, but her worries did not dissipate.
She knew that this was no ordinary market fluctuation, but a carefully planned economic attack. If they were not careful, all their efforts would be wasted.
The two of them urgently discussed countermeasures in the village committee, and the atmosphere was so depressing that it was suffocating.
Everyone expressed their opinions, but no one seemed to have found the key to solving the problem.
Time passes by minute by minute, and every second cuts everyone's heart like a blunt knife.
At this moment, Shen Qiqi, who had been silent all this time, suddenly raised her head, a strange light flashed in her eyes, and she slowly said: "I have an idea..."
Lu Qing looked at Shen Qiqi, his heart trembling. He found that Shen Qiqi's eyes at this moment were like the sea before a storm. Under the calm, there were raging waves.
"What are you going to do?" Lu Qing asked curiously.
Shen Qiqi smiled meaningfully, but did not answer directly. She just stared into the distance and said slowly: "If they want to play, then let's play with them..."
The corners of Shen Qiqi's mouth curled up in a confident arc, like a queen who was planning a strategy.
"Who says price wars are the only way out? We won't! They want to engage in the common low-price competition, so I'll go for high-end customization!" She slammed the table and said loudly, "We must improve product quality and create a high-end product line! Let them know that the products of our village are not comparable to those of just any random cat or dog!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the villagers looked at each other, with big question marks written on their faces.
They understand the importance of improving quality, but what exactly is this high-end product line?
It sounds very grand, but can these farmers, who work hard in the fields, accomplish it?
An atmosphere of doubt spread through the village like a tide, and everyone's heart was hanging in the air.
"Don't panic, everyone. Listen to me!" Lu Qing saw everyone's concerns. He stood up and calmed everyone like a stabilizing force.
"What Qiqi said is absolutely correct! When has she ever let us down? This time, we will follow her, it will definitely be right!" Lu Qing said firmly.
However, the international forces were not pushovers either. Seeing that Shen Qiqi did not play by the rules, they immediately increased their market suppression efforts.
All kinds of remarks that discredited the village's products quickly spread in the market like a virus, such as "the country eggs are ripened with hormones", "the mountain products are soaked in medicine", "the crops are genetically modified", and all kinds of rumors were flying around.
For a time, people were in panic, and the already shaky sales became even worse.
The tense atmosphere was like the calm before the storm, making it hard to breathe.
Shen Qiqi was so angry when she saw these slanderous remarks that she almost overturned the table. She sneered, her eyes sharp as a knife: "Good fellow, actually playing dirty tricks! It seems that if we don't teach them a lesson, they really think we are soft persimmons!" Lu Qing was also angry. He clenched his fists tightly, and his knuckles made a crackling sound.
"Qiqi, this time, I'll go with you and let them know that we are not easy to bully!"
After discussing, the two decided not to passively take the beating, but to take the initiative and fight back fiercely, letting them know that if they dared to provoke them, they would definitely pay a heavy price!
