Chapter 301 No Gifts for Chinese New Year This Year, Only Golden Oranges

Liu Xing patted the bamboo shavings on his body: "According to this style, I will produce 10,000 pieces first. The faster the better, but the quality should keep up. As for the unit price of piecework, one yuan per piece, which means that I will become more skilled in the future. It's the same price once it goes up, it won't be lowered!"

As soon as these words came out, all the villagers present suddenly boiled up. Among them, Zhu Xiuqing was the fastest, picking up the remaining strips on the ground and weaving it.

But to make this golden gift basket is not as simple as imagined. Suddenly she didn't know how to make it.

When Liu Xing saw this scene from the side, he pointed carefully. In order to produce the gold gift baskets in batches as soon as possible, he picked up paper and pen to draw the steps of weaving the gold gift baskets on the wall.

This step is very detailed and easy to understand.

Even Gao Dazhuang looked a little eager to weave this golden gift basket.

Liu Xing knew Gao Dazhuang’s desire to make money, and immediately laughed and said: "You quickly use the cracking machine to break the strips! There are detailed data on the length and width walls. You should know how to do it. As for the salary, I will not lose you. Yes, two hundred a day, including food and everything!"

"Really!" The tall and Zhuang Le was broken, and regardless of the temperature of the cold weather, he rolled up his sleeves and moved to the window to lift a dried bamboo, and used the cracking machine to break the sticks.

Liu Xing watched from the side, seeing that Gao Dazhuang had his own way of doing things, and that he had good skills in breaking the strips, so he was not in charge at the moment, but continued to point the villagers present to make golden gift baskets.

As long as the gold gift basket is finished, he can proceed to the next step, putting oranges into the gold gift basket, and then selling it at the market.

This kind of sales method, if nothing happens, will definitely cause a sensation in the market.

After all, in 1993, most vendors in the rural areas did not know how to pack their own products, agricultural and sideline products and other mountain products. The reason why they could not be sold at a low price had a lot to do with the packaging.

Unlike decades later, buying an apple is polished and waxed and packaged. Although the taste is the same, even eating too many waxed apples is not good for your health, but it is easy to sell.

The gold gift baskets Liu Xing is making now are exquisite and compact, and it is estimated that anyone who sees it will be moved by it.

But the function of the gold gift baskets is just for ornamental purposes, and no other practical value, so it might be difficult to sell them individually.

But with the packaging of dozens of tons of oranges in greenhouse No. 8, the nature has changed. It is not only ornamental, but also practical.

The most important point is that the Chinese New Year is coming soon.

Carrying a basket of packed oranges to go out for New Year's greetings, it will definitely be more face-conscious.

Once a person gains face, he will naturally no longer care about the price of oranges in the gold gift basket, and will buy a basket regardless of whether it is reasonable or not.

This is Liu Xing's plan. If this is the case, oranges will not sell well.

Then only go to the TV station.

At this time, there are almost no vendors advertising on TV. If Liu Xing is the first person to eat crabs, even if it will cause a sensation in the entire HY city.

Once the purpose of advertising effect is achieved.

The packed oranges are going to be sold.

There will definitely be no problems.

Zhu Xiuqing, Zhu Xiaoxiao, and Gao Dazhuang naturally didn't know Liu Xing's plan, let alone how much the golden gift baskets they woven would cause a sensation in the entire market.

After the first batch of 100 were produced, Liu Xing took it to greenhouse 8 and installed the oranges.

Each gold gift basket contains about eight to nine oranges, which is about seven catties, which is about six cents per catty at the price of eight cents per catty.

In addition to the processing fee of one dollar for the gold gift basket, as well as material costs, etc., the price of this basket of oranges will not exceed two yuan.

But Liu Xing's price tag for the oranges is ten yuan.

He sold the first batch of twenty golden gift baskets at the gate of the preserved egg breakfast shop.

I thought the business on the first day would not be so good. After all, new things need time to adapt, and he has not yet gone to the TV station to talk about advertising.

But I didn't know that just now I took the little peanuts and put the gold gift basket on the long table at the gate, and a dozen local villagers immediately surrounded him.

"Ah! What is this! So delicate and beautiful!"

"Don't you see the gold gift basket? It contains oranges, and there is an inscription! Let me see, this year's New Year does not accept gifts, only golden oranges are accepted for gifts!"

"Ouch! This is a good advertisement, ten yuan is not expensive, this gold gift basket is worth the price!"

"That's right! If this basket of oranges is proposed to pay a New Year's greetings, it will definitely save you! Give me three baskets of oranges, here! This is thirty yuan!"

"Bring me five baskets too, this is fifty yuan!"

"Hey! Hey! I'm all coming for the last three golden gift baskets. What gun are you grabbing!"

"Can I not grab it? It's all gone!"

...

Regarding the enthusiasm of these more than a dozen villagers, Liu Xing was both pleasantly surprised and unexpected. Seeing that there were many lively villagers around one after another, he immediately said: "Don't worry, such a golden gift basket is in my greenhouse. There are dozens more, wait for me to get them!"

"All are in line, otherwise my brother won't sell it to you!" Little Peanut is not as high as a table, but he wisely moved the chair and stood on it and commanded.

Liu Xing couldn't help but smile, but just in case, he took Xiao Peanut and went to the eighth shed.

At this time, the parents were already helping to pack the oranges in the greenhouse. When Liu Xing came back, he asked, "How is it, did anyone buy the gold gift basket?"

"If the selling price is not good, call it a lower price, three dollars a piece!" This is Liu Dageng's voice. He is most afraid that the oranges will not be sold in the end and will rot in the greenhouse.

"What's your mentality!" Little Peanut put his hands in his waist and squashed his mouth: "I tell you, the golden gift baskets made by my brother were all robbed in less than a minute, and they were of that kind. The kind that is in short supply."

"Really?" Liu Dageng didn't believe what Little Peanut Man said, he thought about Liu Xing in surprise, wanting to know the real answer from Liu Xing's mouth.

Zhu Meiling too, she held her breath.

Because he knew that Peanut never lied, nor would he brag about it at this time.

Liu Xing looked at his parents and smiled: "Little Peanut is right. The golden gift basket placed at the entrance of the preserved egg breakfast shop was robbed, and no one is too expensive for ten dollars apiece."

"Isn't it? No one is too expensive for just a few oranges?" Liu Dageng is now more and more unable to understand Liu Xing. What are these methods!It's a monster.

"Then you are here now, are you going to sell some gold gift baskets?" Zhu Meiling asked with joy in a daze.

"Yeah!" Liu Xing nodded, "It is more convenient to arrange for some people to sell it. It is very inconvenient for me to bring the peanuts."

"Then I will call your Aunt Hua, and Li Dawei who helped, anyway, the benefits of making money will not be less for them!" Zhu Meiling expressed her thoughts in her heart.

"Okay!" Liu Xing meant exactly the same thing, but he didn't carry the gold gift basket to the gate of the preserved egg breakfast shop for the first time. Instead, after talking to his parents, he went to the sixth greenhouse.

Shed No. 6 was busy at this time, and in just ten minutes, more than 30 golden gift baskets came out.

But Liu Xing was still dissatisfied with this speed. He called Zhu Xiuqing and Gao Dazhuang over: "The sales of the gold gift baskets have exceeded my expectations. In other words, you have to work overtime to produce gold gift baskets these days. As for the price... you are raising 50 cents apiece, it depends on whether you want to make money!"

"Of course we think, but are the gold gift baskets really easy to sell?" Gao Dazhuang scratched his head and asked a little excitedly.

"Hehe... I never frighten people with money-related things!" Liu Xing smiled and hammered the tall and strong: "Hurry up! I want you to give me production in the next ten days. Forty thousand golden gift baskets, if there are not enough manpower, I'm trying to find a way to recruit some outstanding people."

"There should be enough manpower, and this will be the Chinese New Year soon. This time, it's hard to find the sealer who weaves the gold gift baskets!" Zhu Xiuqing secretly calculated the number in her heart, and after getting the result, she gave Liu Xing the answer.

Of course, the reason for saying this is more because I am afraid that other bamboo craftsmen will grab her job. After all, there are things to do during the New Year, which is very rare.

"That's good!" Liu Xing still believes in Zhu Xiuqing's ability. After taking a look at everyone, he said: "Then you work overtime to make golden gift baskets. I will be responsible for selling this one. I will give you bonuses when the Chinese New Year comes. , I will never lose to you!"

"That's great!" Gao Dazhuang was full of enthusiasm when he heard these words, and before Liu Xing confessed, he opened the machine to break the sticks.

This time, he drove two Destroyer machines alone, and the speed of his left and right bows was ten times faster than before.

Zhu Xiuqing didn't go weaving the golden gift basket at the first time, but said to Liu Xing: "It's easy to work overtime. After all, everyone is to make money, but don't forget about dinner Liu Xing. The place to sleep is easy to talk about. After all, this big shed is so big that you can fall asleep anywhere you want."

"Okay!" Liu Xing nodded, and after a few more words with Zhu Xiuqing, he carried the woven gold gift basket to the eighth greenhouse.

To his surprise, his parents not only invited Aunt Hua, Li Dawei and others to help, but also Sagong Lei and Lin Putao.

Liu Xing looked at him for a moment, and after regaining his senses, he smiled and said to Sikong Lei: "Big brother, you are a busy person these days! Why do you have time to help me?"

"I was messing around. I didn't make any money. I still lost thousands of dollars!" Sikong Lei was not afraid of Liu Xing's jokes: "It's also a fruit business. As a result, today's fruit harvest can't afford the price. I heard from your parents that you have a way to buy this orange at ten times the price, so I took my sister-in-law over to take a look."
