Upon hearing this, the team leader frowned and disagreed, saying, "I'm afraid Mu Zhiqing doesn't know that our commune's supply and marketing cooperative doesn't accept tea from our village."
Seeing her doubtful look, the captain sighed and continued,
"Several brigades under our commune all produce tea, so every market day, villagers would bring their home-roasted tea to the commune market to exchange with city dwellers for some of their own needs."
"For example, a few oil coupons, meat coupons, or cloth coupons could be exchanged for a considerable amount of tea. If you met an honest and decent person, you could give them two meat coupons and they could exchange them for enough tea for half a year. Therefore, the tea from the commune was usually difficult to sell, so naturally, they wouldn't buy tea from our village."
The captain said this with a helpless look on his face.
It’s not like anyone in their brigade had gone to the supply and marketing cooperative to ask before, but the answer was obvious: they were rejected every time.
Mu Yunxi: "..."
No wonder the aunties in the village always give big bags of tea when giving away tea.
She had never exchanged tea at the commune market, so she had no idea that tea here was so worthless.
However, thinking of what his father Mu and grandparents said after drinking the autumn tea, Mu Yunxi's confidence increased instantly.
This tea is not valuable only in the place where it is produced.
In other cities, it is also a hot commodity.
Especially the high-quality tea produced in their village...
If you go to prosperous big cities such as Shanghai, Hua, and Beijing, you will need tickets to buy them.
However, because there are tea producing areas everywhere in Nanshi, most of the tea picked by the villagers after being roasted will be used to exchange with people in the city for various bills needed at home.
As a result, the tea market here naturally fell into a saturated state.
In addition, tea is not a necessity in people's lives, so the price of tea is naturally difficult to go up.
After all...this era is not like the later generations, where transportation is convenient and the transportation industry is developed.
Otherwise, such good tea would probably become popular all over the country quickly even if no one deliberately publicized and promoted it!
Mu Yunxi lowered her eyes, her eyelids curved calmly. After a long while, she looked at the captain seriously.
"Uncle Captain, our entire Nanshi is a tea-producing area. It's normal that it's difficult to sell here. Have you ever thought about selling our team's tea to other cities?"
The captain's eyes narrowed slightly as he looked directly at Mu Yunxi: "Selling to other cities?"
Mu Yunxi nodded slightly: "Yes, sell it to other cities."
"Captain, you can discuss this with the village cadres first. If they think this idea is feasible, I can help you find a market."
Mu Yunxi pursed her lips after speaking, remained silent for a few seconds, and continued,
"The quality and taste of the tea in our village are impeccable. In my hometown, it is considered a rare and scarce commodity.
Captain, you can discuss this with the village chief first. If you think this is feasible, I will send some tea samples back to my home and my cousin, and ask my family to help connect with the supply and marketing cooperative and the department store.
If this works, our team will be able to earn more every year, and everyone's life will be better!"
What was the original intention of the educated youth going to the countryside?
In addition to alleviating employment pressure in cities and towns, it allows educated youth to exercise their minds through labor, cultivate the spirit of hard work and arduous struggle, and establish correct values.
More...we also hope that the educated young people who go to the countryside can promote agricultural production through what they have learned and known.
Contribute to the development and construction of rural areas.
Let all the villagers live a good life.
so.....
If this thing can be successful, the beneficiaries will be the entire members of the Yanshan Brigade.
and......
If the market for tea can be opened up, it may even drive the development of several surrounding villages.
Isn’t this a very meaningful thing!
Mu Yunxi curled the corners of her lips and waited quietly for the captain's answer.
