Chapter 109 Recognizing Oneself
Roses have a growth process. From the moment the tender green rosebuds sprout, Su Yuanzheng signed contracts with many shop owners in villages, towns, and counties, promising to supply them with roses.
Before long, the roses were turning red, and the red buds were about to bloom. When the shop owners saw the video of the roses growing posted by Xia Yutong, they thought they were ready and could come and collect them to put in the flower shop to keep them in water, waiting for customers to come and buy them.
The shop owners all knew that Su Yuanzheng had signed many contracts, and they were worried that they wouldn't have enough roses this year.
As soon as Xia Yutong's video was published, red roses with buds appeared before everyone's eyes, and the shop owners began to drive over from various places to pick them up the next day.
It was the first time selling local roses, and everyone was nervous and eager to get the goods, but dared not buy too many at once...
Each household took a little bit, and many customers made appointments to pick it up the next day, keeping us extremely busy.
There are many people farming in the fields, and many people weeding, pest control, and pruning flowers, but most of them are rough people who can't do delicate work.
Among them, Su Qinglian was considered one of the most capable and meticulous. She took out her notebook and began to make records, noting who took how much goods and how the money was calculated. Then she found the contracts and wrote them down one by one.
Before I knew it, a busy day had passed.
Even when it was time to leave work, Su Qinglian was still writing.
When Xia Yutong arrived, Su Qinglian sneered, "You sent a video and it exhausted me to death."
"As soon as the video was released, everyone started complaining. These people have big eyes but small bellies. They didn't take much goods, and there were a lot of them, so it's a mixed bag."
"Yes, I came here to ease your burden."
Xia Yutong sat down next to her, opened her tablet, and tapped on a spreadsheet. "I've already set up the data. You just need to enter the quantity here, and the price will be automatically adjusted later. You don't need to enter it one by one."
Su Qinglian was somewhat dazed. She frowned and asked, "What is this? What did you adjust? How come everything came up when I just entered a number?"
Su Qinglian tried it, and it really worked! She looked at Xia Yutong in disbelief, "What's going on? How did you do this?"
“I had already set up the data before.”
"How did you set it up?"
"Then I can't tell you. You can use it, I have other things to do."
After Xia Yutong finished speaking, she threw the tablet to Su Qinglian and left. Su Qinglian was a strong-willed person who knew how to use spreadsheets, but she wasn't an expert. She didn't know how to set up data or adjust parameters. She could only create the spreadsheet, format it, and fill in the data in a neat and orderly manner.
After a while, Su Qinglian filled in some data, and the rest of the data seemed to fall from the sky, automatically generated afterward, even more accurately than when she calculated it with a computer. Prices, quantities, and everything else appeared.
After filling it out for a while, Su Qinglian found it amazing and asked, "How exactly did you do that?"
She covered her head with a veil, but Xia Yutong was no longer in the room.
Next door, Xia Yutong was also busy with her own business. Zhou Erniang's daughter, Li Xuehua, hadn't arrived yet, and Li Miao was temporarily handling customer service for the custom-made handicrafts. Xia Yutong, on the other hand, was continuing her pottery classes and researching how to expand the variety of handicrafts she knew...
"Tongtong..."
Li Miao had been sitting in front of the computer all day and was feeling a bit tired. She once again felt the mysterious power of the internet.
"Um?"
"If you only do online customization, then this place can only serve as an office, which is quiet and deserted with hardly anyone here."
"For now, we can only do online customization; we don't have any customers for physical stores."
Li Miao thought it made sense. "If it were in a big city, you could set up your own craft workshop. When people come, you can make an easy-to-understand instruction book to teach them. People who are interested can come to your workshop and start making things themselves, cultivating their hands-on skills, because the meaning of what they make themselves will be very different."
"Yes, but this isn't a big city, it's the countryside."
She would only dare to think about these things once the rose planting base was officially developed and became part of Haicheng's tourism industry.
Li Miao looked at her and said, "Tongtong, you are really amazing. You have changed a lot over the years. You are completely different from the person I used to know."
Li Miao is a sucker for good looks and loves beautiful women. She was classmates with the original owner of this body, Xia Yutong, in high school, and they were even deskmates. They had a very good relationship back then.
But most of the time, Li Miao would cling to Xia Yutong, queuing up to buy her food, lending her test papers to copy, and sometimes even taking notes for her when she secretly read romance novels in class.
In the original owner's mind, Li Miao was always regarded as a little follower.
Xia Yutong looked at Li Miao and asked with a smile, "What was I like before?"
Li Miao stopped working, resting her chin on her hand, "Tongtong, you wouldn't have worked this hard before. Your family was well-off when you were young, so you felt that you should enjoy life instead of spending a lot of time striving. Even though you went to the same school as me, you felt that you were different from everyone else."
Xia Yutong smiled. "Hmm, anything else?"
"besides……"
Li Miao looked around to make sure there was no one else in the room before walking to the door and closing it tightly. "And you told me clearly before that even if you died, you would never be with Su Yuanzheng. You don't like men who have no class. You like gentlemen and elegant noblemen... the kind whose families can provide you with very good conditions."
Xia Yutong cleared her throat. "So people do change."
“Do you know that back in high school, every time I told you that Su Yuanzheng was great, you would get angry with me. You would say that I was short-sighted and that if he was so good, you could have him.”
Upon hearing this, Xia Yutong glanced at Li Miao and said, "I'm not allowing it anymore. I'm not allowing it now."
"Why don't you give way?"
"Aren't you afraid of getting beaten up by Zhang Ji, Li Miao? How dare you covet my man."
Li Miao hugged her neck, "You said yourself that you wouldn't like Su Yuanzheng. You said that if I liked him, you could help me."
"Li Miao, don't joke around."
"What's wrong? You're having second thoughts now? Hmm? Then tell me honestly, what made you change your mind?"
Xia Yutong thought for a moment, then sighed, "Actually, I've always liked him, but I couldn't understand my own feelings. I've never been with any other men, so I wasn't sure if what I felt for him was love. But after I entered university and met Zhou Hengzhi and Lin Wang, I suddenly realized that Su Yuanzheng was the one I loved..."
"Oh, so you've come to understand yourself."
"Yes, I suddenly realized that the person I have always loved is Su Yuanzheng, and I like living this kind of ordinary life with him."
Li Miao listened with a look of enjoyment, "Actually, I'm also very envious of you and Su Yuanzheng. Anyway, I'm happy as long as you're happy."
Li Miao hugged Xia Yutong's neck and said, "I'm so happy to be friends with you again, and I'm also looking forward to seeing the baby in my belly born soon."
