I Run a Gas Station in the Northwest
Chapter 99: Precious Seedlings
Chen Mu brought two kinds of saplings. Although they were not too many, it was a bit difficult to take them alone. The most feared thing was that the saplings would be damaged. When the time comes, they will be "bad in appearance".
Therefore, he needs to find someone to help take it.
Pulling Miss Yingbin to move the saplings from the small golden cup, and then holding a meeting, Miss Yingbin not only helped to get the seedlings, but also led the way, and finally led him to the forestry company booth with great accuracy, which was really helpful Up.
"Thank you, Xiaoen."
Chen Mu had been chatting with people all the way. People didn't really want to talk to him, but they forced him to talk about a bloody way, and finally talked out his name, blood type and constellation.
Miss Yingbin is a college student, and she is enrolled in the Dance Academy of Northwest University for Nationalities, whose name is Ga En'en.
Because of her beautiful appearance and proud figure, she usually engages in the modeling industry to make extra money. Today, being a welcome lady is one of the jobs.
When he came to the booth, Chen Mu took the initiative to take a bottle of water and handed it to the girl from the Baoan clan, and then prepared to send the girl away.
"You...don't you say you want to add me to WeChat?"
The young lady of the Baoan tribe held the water and asked a little at a loss.
"Oh, forgot, forgot."
Chen Mu patted his forehead and quickly took out his phone: "I will send you a photo later, um, I thought you didn't want it, so I don't want to add WeChat."
The Baoan clan lady resisted the urge to throw the phone on her face, and turned around after passing the verification.
"Goodbye, Xiaoen!"
Chen Mu put the phone in his pocket and quickly forgot about it.
Li Ming in the booth had already come out to welcome him, and the two moved the saplings into place. Li Ming specially reserved a small place for Chen Mu to stuff the saplings in.
To be honest, the booth of the forestry company is not too big. Most of the space is used for saplings. It looks like a stall selling groceries. Anyway, it is to display things as much as possible and let people choose.
"It seems that there are not many people today!"
Chen Mu looked at the layout of the booth, then looked around, and said curiously, "Is it the same in the past?"
Li Ming replied: "Today is the first day, and it's still so early. There are a little less people, but it will be fine after noon, and there will be more people."
Pointing to the venue to the east, Li Ming said: "This time the nursery stock exhibition is bigger, because the agricultural machinery exhibition is also held together. It is in the exhibition hall over there, so there will be a lot of people later."
"Oh, there is an agricultural machinery exhibition, no wonder the venue is so big."
"If you are interested, you can check it out later."
Chen Mu thought for a while, then asked: "Who are the people who usually come to the exhibition?"
Li Ming thought for a while and replied: "Actually, there are only four kinds of people who come to our seedling exhibition. The first are seedling producers, just like us, who mainly come to sell seedlings. The second is brokers and project buyers. To put it bluntly, it is a buyer. The main purpose of coming here is to understand the market and find a good source of goods. The third is people engaged in garden design, they are not many, mainly to visit and learn, to increase their knowledge. The fourth is the media, they have the least number , But it is very important, it is a bridge connecting the first three kinds of people."
Chen Mu lowered his voice and asked, "Brother Li, are the saplings sold well at your exhibition every year?"
Li Ming shook his head and smiled: "Although I came to participate in the exhibition for the purpose of selling goods, but sitting up at the exhibition, selling goods cannot be the main purpose."
"What do you mean?"
Chen Mu felt that he had become a primary school student, and there were 100,000 whys flowing in his heart.
"The main reason to come to the exhibition is for the future, just like our forestry company. In fact, our customers have stabilized. But every time the exhibition comes, it is not for how many things are sold at the exhibition, but mainly to tell others about us. Still, there is more communication with friends. After all, the seedling industry still pays attention to the'acquaintance economy' in many cases."
Chen Mu understood thoroughly. As an economics student, Li Ming understood the meaning in his words.
To put it bluntly, it is for accumulation and a familiar face.
Just like the situation in other industries, Xia Guo has a lot of people, the market is too big, the elimination rate in the industry is extremely high, and there are many newcomers and new companies. Only by constantly fighting for the opportunity to show up can people know their existence.
This is not only to let new customers know, but also to let old customers know. After all, no one knows when the friends you make will be converted into orders.
To put it bluntly, if you don't dangle in front of others often, even if they really want to find you, they will think that you are gone, and you may lose this opportunity.
really
As Li Ming said, after noon, the number of people in the exhibition hall gradually increased.
The booth of the forestry company is a bit biased, and the booth layout is not very distinctive. After all, their customer base is mainly for farmers who plant trees and afforestation. They don't need to be too fancy, so not many people come by.
Chen Mu was a little boring, so he said to Li Ming and wandered around the exhibition hall by himself.
Although both gardeners and afforesters plant trees, the market feels completely different between the two. Those garden booths are very large. Some companies are so wealthy that they rent a lot of booths and then carefully arrange a lot of gardens. The landscape came out and used it as a model.
The most exaggerated one is to directly use the facade of a small villa as the background, and then arrange a whole garden, including rockery, moss, podocarpus, safe tree, sweet-scented osmanthus...Anyway, the layout is particularly beautiful , Labor must also cost a lot.
Chen Mu walked around inside and glanced at the price of that Podocarpus pine, and he actually wrote "380000".
He quickly widened his eyes, and took a few more glances, and found that he really didn't have many zeros. Then he was so frightened that he trembled and hurriedly ran out of the booth for fear of entering the black shop by mistake.
After the baptism of that Podocarpus pine, Chen Mu's mood gradually grew old, and he would never be scared to run away because of seeing more than a hundred thousand saplings. In his opinion, tens of thousands of saplings It's just waiting for the ordinary... Later, people have been numbed by the zeros behind the numbers, thinking that these things should be at that price, and it is wrong to sell them cheaply.
"These gardeners can really play!"
After turning around, Chen Mu muttered to himself, and finally walked in after seeing a booth selling seabuckthorn seedlings.
He also grows seabuckthorn and can raise seedlings. He wanted to know how much seabuckthorn saplings are selling now, so he went in and saw it for himself.
"Sir, you are interested in what seedlings, do you need me to introduce it to you?"
The people at the exhibition didn't bother him at first, and after he wandered around the booth for two or three minutes, a young lady came to greet him.
Chen Mu is welcome, pointing to the two sea-buckthorn seedlings, and asking without shame: "Okay, tell me what is the difference between your two sea-buckthorn seedlings."
