Li Weidong had anticipated that the drinks would sell out and he would make a lot of money, so he remained calm.
However, Shen Xiaoyan and Ji Dahai could not remain calm.
Both of them were in business and should have been used to big events.
But it's the first time I've seen a liquor like Kongfujia become so popular across the country, making money like water. How can I not be excited?
Li Weidong couldn't refuse them, so he had no choice but to go to the city.
Ji Dahai originally wanted to hold the banquet at his own Wenhe Hotel, but he couldn't beat Shen Xiaoyan to it, and the three of them ended up sitting at Xiaoyan's Hotel.
The feast was incredibly lavish.
Everything imaginable is there—flying creatures, running creatures, and even swimming creatures.
Li Weidong found it amusing: "Sister Xiaoyan, isn't this a bit too extravagant?"
"What's so special about this!"
Shen Xiaoyan said nonchalantly, "This meal only cost a few dollars. Do you know how much we make when our drinks sell out?"
She held up three fingers and waved them: "People from Hangzhou called, and right now the company's daily revenue alone is this much!"
Ji Dahai perked up: "Three hundred?"
Shen Xiaoyan pouted: "This is nothing, the gross profit is already almost three thousand!"
You should know that they are the general distributor for the entire Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai region. Now that Kongfujia liquor is so popular, not only are liquor buyers, but also those with good connections are all rushing to get the regional distributorship.
Ji Dahai gasped, "My goodness! This is practically like finding money on the street!"
Shen Xiaoyan shook her head: "There is a difference. You have to bend over to pick up money, but with what we have now, we can just lie down and count the money!"
"Especially you, Boss Ji, from now on, just wait for your dividends!"
Ji Dahai's face flushed with excitement, and he quickly stood up to pour wine: "I also want to thank you for being willing to take me along, Brother Weidong, Sister Xiaoyan, I'd like to toast you!"
Li Weidong laughed: "Let's keep up the good work and make the company bigger and stronger."
The three raised their glasses and drank deeply, their expressions filled with anticipation for the future.
Just then, a group of customers from the next table came over and asked, "Weidong, are you the distributor for Kongfu Family Wine?"
Li Weidong turned his head and realized that it was someone from the next village, so he smiled and nodded: "Yes."
Anyway, this can't be kept secret forever; it'll get out sooner or later.
The man was so surprised he couldn't close his mouth: "I know this wine. It's advertised everywhere now, even kids know it. Buy wine from Kongfujia. You've made a fortune this time!"
Li Weidong smiled, not intending to say anything more.
The man, feeling slighted, sat back down, but quickly finished his meal, paid the bill, and left.
Then the news quickly spread throughout the surrounding villages and towns.
Li Weidong ate at Shen Xiaoyan's place and drank quite a bit of alcohol. He then simply cuddled Shen Xiaoyan and fell asleep there.
I didn't get up and go home until evening.
As soon as he entered the village, he noticed that everyone was looking at him strangely.
When I got home, I was even more shocked.
The house was suddenly filled with people!
They're all from the village.
When Zhao Xiulian saw him return, she was overjoyed, saying, "Weidong, you're finally back! Come in quickly, everyone's been waiting for you for ages!"
"What are you waiting for me for?"
Li Weidong was completely bewildered.
Zhao Xiulian lowered her voice: "It's all because of that wine you were an agent for. Now everyone knows that you were the agent for Kongfu Family Wine. You've made a lot of money, and everyone wants to get rich with you!"
Li Weidong was at a loss for words, but he still braced himself and went into the house.
As soon as I entered, everyone came to greet me.
"Wei Dong, you're really something! Not only do you make money growing mushrooms, but you can also make a fortune distributing alcoholic beverages. That's amazing!"
"There are advertisements for Kongfu Family Wine everywhere now. That wine sells so well, they must be making a lot of money, right?"
"Weidong, to be honest with you, I wanted to work with you when you were making Moutai, but I was always too shy. Now that you've become the major distributor for Kongfujia liquor, could you take us under your wing?"
"Yeah, yeah, you're a big distributor, so you need to recruit smaller distributors, right? Give us a chance, let's all make money together!"
The villagers chattered amongst themselves, their faces filled with anticipation and longing.
Li Weidong was speechless.
They say that people are afraid of becoming famous, just as pigs are afraid of getting fat, and that's really true!
He is indeed an agent, and he does need to recruit smaller agents, but you can't just recruit any agent!
Putting everything else aside, no one in the village meets the requirements for various qualifications.
"Wei Dong, say something!"
Someone urged, "We're all from the same village, and you're willing to help us grow mushrooms, so shouldn't the drinks be the same too?"
Li Weidong sighed: "Auntie, let me explain. Growing mushrooms and being a liquor distributor are not the same thing."
"I can decide who to bring to grow mushrooms, but I don't have that kind of say in the liquor distribution!"
He shrugged and said, "Even if I am a major distributor, the winery is not mine. If you want to be a distributor, you have to go to the winery and talk to the owner. I am not qualified."
The refusal was quite obvious.
But some people were still unwilling to give up: "You've already been to the winery once, you know the way and you have connections, why don't you take us there again?"
Li Weidong was completely speechless.
It's not that simple!
Seeing that things were not going well, Zhao Xiulian quickly came over and said, "Aren't you making things difficult for my Weidong? We've already said that the boss has the final say on the agency."
"You want to sell alcohol, but how much do you know? If you don't know anything and just let Weidong take you there, what if the boss gets angry and takes back Weidong's agency rights?"
The people looked sullen after being told off.
Li Weidong seized the opportunity to say, "I really can't control what you do with the liquor distribution business, but I understand your desire to make money. Don't worry, we can still grow mushrooms this year."
"Being a beverage distributor doesn't guarantee success, but this kind of mushroom business is something people are used to. Stop thinking about those unrealistic things, focus on what's in front of you, and you can still make money, right?"
Having said that, he immediately gave them the order to leave: "It's getting late, uncles and aunts, you should all go home now!"
With the message so clear, no one dared to stay any longer, and they could only leave dejectedly.
Li Weidong breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Making some money feels like the whole world is watching us, it's a hassle."
Zhao Xiulian laughed: "That's right! That's just how the world is."
Then the conversation turned to alcohol: "Weidong, is alcohol really that profitable?"
"Of course it's true."
Li Weidong nodded: "Mom, from now on, you won't have to suffer anymore. Your son has money now, and I can make sure you live a good life and have no worries about food and clothing for the rest of your life!"
"Okay, okay, Mom's waiting!"
Zhao Xiulian nodded repeatedly, and while Li Weidong wasn't looking, she wiped the corner of her eye.
My son has grown up, that's wonderful!
...
The fact that Li Weidong was the major distributor of Kongfujia liquor spread throughout the village, and everyone was talking about how much money he had made.
For a time, everyone was very envious.
And this news quickly reached Tiger's ears...
