After returning to Shenzhen, Sheng Xiping didn't rest much and immediately threw himself into his work.
In the new year, in addition to bulk commodities such as corn, home appliances, and timber, the company will also try to expand into other areas.
Trading companies, no matter how they change, are essentially just buying and selling.
While striving to expand the domestic market, Sheng Xiping also began to contact foreign customers through trading companies in the port city.
By taking advantage of Shenzhen's various preferential policies, we will gradually develop the import and export industry.
Of course, in terms of exports, the main focus is currently on agricultural and sideline products from Kyrgyz province, since Chen Ruiqing is in charge, making it relatively easy to handle.
Sheng Xiping didn't choose traditional large-scale export projects, but rather products that were previously not very noticeable, such as white melon seeds, black fungus, wild vegetables, edible fungi, wooden folding chairs, willow weaving, flax yarn, plywood, fiberboard, and corrugated paper.
Businesses need to be built step by step, money needs to be earned little by little, and development should be gradual.
The paths others have paved the way for may yield less profit, while the paths you forge yourself offer greater potential for growth.
These days, export earnings are of paramount importance and are of utmost importance to economic development.
In many places, people are even willing to pay extra to obtain valuable foreign exchange.
In particular, the local government was overjoyed to hear that the products Sheng Xiping had chosen could be exported and earn foreign exchange.
Chen Ruiqing was in charge of this area, and Sheng Xiping's contact for business was essentially boosting Chen Ruiqing's performance.
Chen Ruiqing was overjoyed and praised Sheng Xiping as a lucky star.
As for plywood, fiberboard, and corrugated paper, needless to say, Songjianghe Forestry Bureau is definitely the first choice.
In the past, these products were sold to domestic companies. Nobody ever thought that these things could be exported to earn foreign exchange.
Especially corrugated paper. Back then, the paper mill was poorly managed, and the bureau had no choice but to bite the bullet and launch the project in order to provide employment for unemployed youth.
Unexpectedly, with Sheng Xiping's help in promoting sales over the past few years, the paper mill not only turned a profit but also started exporting and earning foreign exchange.
The paper mill leaders were overjoyed, they didn't know what to do.
Zhou Mingyuan was commended by his superiors for this.
Products that were once neglected have now become highly sought-after export commodities that can generate foreign exchange. Many local governments and factories regard Sheng Xiping as their god of wealth.
The province has also provided many preferential policies, created convenient conditions, and given its full support.
With the help of Chen Ruiqing, Wu Yucheng, and others, and with everyone working together, the company is developing very well and its revenue is quite considerable.
On the other side, Sheng Liancheng and his wife stayed in their hometown for a while longer. After the old man of the Sheng family had finished burning the cinnabar on the seventh day of the twelfth lunar month, the couple packed their bags and embarked on their journey back.
Sheng Liancheng and his wife left home on the seventh day of the first lunar month and had been away for nearly two months. They were eager to return home and wished they could do so immediately.
After several days of travel, we finally returned to Songjianghe on April 12th.
Zhou Qinglan and Sheng Xitai had received a telegram in advance, so they took leave to pick him up at the train station.
"Dad, Mom, you must be tired from the journey. Let's go home and rest for a couple of days."
Upon seeing her parents-in-law emerge from the station exit, Zhou Qinglan immediately went to greet them, took the bag from her mother-in-law's hand, and helped her walk forward.
Sheng Xitai also stepped forward and took the things his father was carrying.
Sheng Liancheng and Zhang Shuzhen were getting on in years, and having traveled such a long distance to get back, they felt as if they were still on the bus when they got off, a kind of dazed feeling.
"Qinglan, how's things at home? Have you gone back to the forest farm to check on things?" Zhang Shuzhen asked her daughter-in-law as they walked.
"We went back. On the day you left, I took Xinhua and Xinyu back for a few days."
Hua Hua went back home. Xinhua and Xinyu talked to Hua Hua for a long time. Hua Hua stayed at home for one night and left the next morning.
A few days ago, since school was on monthly break, we went back again and dug out most of the food that had been buried in the snowdrift in the backyard. I brought it all back.
Zhou Qinglan smiled and told her mother-in-law about things at home.
"Mom, don't worry, everything is fine at home."
Aunt Wang and Aunt Chen go over every day to tend the fire, feed the chickens and dogs, and keep the house very tidy.
Upon hearing this, Zhang Shuzhen breathed a sigh of relief. "Good, good, that's right. I was just worried you wouldn't have time to go back."
We prepared so much food for the New Year; what if it spoils if no one takes care of it?
The older generation is used to being careful with their money and is very particular about things. They don't care if the chicken, duck, fish, or meat are eaten, but they would be heartbroken if they went blind.
There were many donkey carts near the station that picked people up. Zhou Qinglan and her group randomly picked one, got on, and returned to their home near No. 1 Middle School.
Sheng Xinyue and Sheng Xinqi were overjoyed to see their grandparents. They rushed over and hugged their legs, calling out in their soft, sweet voices, "Grandpa, Grandma."
Even though I was exhausted from the journey, seeing the two children made me feel instantly relaxed.
"Oh, my dear grandson, come on, let grandpa hold you." Sheng Liancheng bent down and picked up Sheng Xinyue.
"Grandpa has been away for so long, have you missed me?"
"I've been thinking about it, I really want to," the little girl said, patting her chest.
I haven't seen this little guy for two months, and he's become much more fluent in his speech.
Zhang Shuzhen picked up Sheng Xinqi and chatted with her granddaughter as they went inside.
"Sister-in-law, let's eat first. I've prepared the food and am just waiting for you to come back."
When Aunt Li saw Sheng Liancheng and Zhang Shuzhen return, she was quite happy and quickly started packing the food out of the pot.
