Chapter 286 Visiting the Greenhouse
Then she looked at Yang Tao again and said, "It's the same with Taozi's family. Go back and talk to your eldest sister and hire two people to help look after them."
Yang Tao also thought Shang Ruoting's idea was the best, but she was still a little hesitant: "Sister Ruoting, you know my family's situation now. I'm afraid I can't afford to pay so much money to hire someone."
Shang Ruoting was of course aware of the Yang family's situation. Seeing Yang Tao's anxious look, she smiled and said, "Our two families cultivate mushrooms together. I believe yours can be picked now."
Yang Tao nodded and said, "Sister Ruoting, I also want to ask you, where do you sell your mushrooms? Then our family will go far away so that we don't clash."
Shang Ruoting looked at Yang Tao's serious expression and said with a smile, "That's what I want to tell you next. Today, your brother Tan Chen and I went to see Secretary Cui. We're asking him to help us sell our oyster mushrooms."
"After all, our oyster mushroom production is high. If we just rely on setting up stalls, we won't be able to sell all the mushrooms until they rot."
In fact, Yang Tao was already very conflicted. She was happy about the high yield of oyster mushrooms in the greenhouse, but on the other hand, she was worried that so many oyster mushrooms could not be sold.
"Really, Sister Ruoting, we don't have to go out and set up a stall to sell our oyster mushrooms?"
Shang Ruoting nodded and said, "Yes, we want to be a supplier of oyster mushrooms, not a retailer."
These words were a bit profound for the teenage Yang Tao, but she could still understand the literal meaning.
She held Shang Ruoting's hand, her excitement unspeakable. "That's great, Sister Ruoting. My elder sister and I were worried this morning about where to sell all these mushrooms. I wonder if you've arranged everything for us."
In fact, it is still unknown whether Oyster Mushroom can reach a sales agreement with the supply and marketing cooperative. Shang Ruoting is not completely sure that her efforts are successful. Seeing Yang Tao's happy look, she can't bear to pour cold water on her.
"Haha...don't worry, let's wait for news from Secretary Cui."
"Anyway, don't worry about this for now. Once we've earned enough money from our oyster mushrooms, you and your eldest sister can arrange to hire someone."
After all, Yang Tao was still a teenager. When she heard the good news, she wanted to go home and tell her elder sister as soon as possible. She talked with Shang Ruoting for a while and then ran away.
Shang Ruoting watched the little girl run away and reminded her loudly, "Taozi, stir-fried oyster mushrooms are delicious. You can try it tonight."
Yang Tao turned around and waved to Shang Ruoting, indicating that she had heard him, and continued running towards her home...
When Old Lady Shang saw Shang Ruoting and Tan Chen coming back, she knew she was no longer needed here, so she took a bunch of oyster mushrooms and went home to cook.
Secretary Cui, accompanied by Tan Chen, walked around the greenhouse again and again. Later, Zhao Fa and Deputy Captain Wang came back and joined them. Finally, it was Tan Chen who reminded them that they reluctantly walked out.
Although Zhao Fa and Deputy Captain Wang were not as lucky as Secretary Cui, they were able to taste the delicious mushrooms at noon. When they came out, they actually asked Tan Chen for some for the first time.
The yield of oyster mushrooms is high, so Tan Chen naturally would not be stingy with them and picked some to give to them.
While Zhao Fa and Deputy Captain Wang praised Tan Chen's generosity, they were also very envious of his ability. The wasteland that they had begged others to contract was immediately turned into treasure in his hands.
Although they were envious, they still had a positive mindset. They knew they didn't have the ability, and they didn't want to be too ambitious...
Seeing that it was still early, Secretary Cui asked Shang Ruoting and Tan Chen to take him to see the other two greenhouses.
Although the crops in the two greenhouses were growing well, they were not yet mature. They were not as pleasing to the eye as the plump mushrooms. Even so, the group lingered there for a long time.
It was not until around three o'clock in the afternoon that everyone returned to Tan Chen's home, where they were invited to have dinner.
As soon as they walked into the yard gate, they saw two people running towards them from a distance.
"Secretary Cui, Secretary Cui, we have reached an agreement."
Shang Ruoting looked carefully and found that the people coming were two of the people sent by Secretary Cui.
Secretary Cui paused and looked at the two of them: "Come, come, come into the yard first and tell me the details of the situation."
Entering the yard, Shang Ruoting brought in a few small stools and a floor-standing round table. She poured a glass of water for everyone and everyone sat around the table.
Secretary Cui took a sip of water before asking, "Now tell us the details!"
"Secretary, we went to two supply and marketing cooperatives and directly contacted our acquaintances in charge of purchasing. They were very satisfied with the oyster mushrooms and agreed to the price of 1.8 yuan."
"However, they said that since this was their first time selling the goods, they didn't know how they would perform yet, so they only agreed to order by the kilogram on the first day and were willing to deliver the goods to your door."
