336 The First Order
Zhou Fangfang had been staring at the computer for the past few days, hoping to hear the notification of an order.
Over the past few days, villagers would come up from time to time to ask if customers had come to buy anything.
...When they heard that no one was buying anything, they revealed a slightly disappointed expression.
Previously, the villagers who came here to sell things hoped that they would be able to peddle their wares.
All the villagers thought that if the things they planted were easy to sell online, they could have more next time.
However, after so many days, not a single thing in the village had been sold.
Thinking about it, it was impossible not to be disappointed.
The villagers gradually began to wonder if it was possible to sell things on this website.
Some people even suspected that Gu Qingming did not care about this matter.
Otherwise, why hadn’t anyone come online to buy anything after so many days?
Thus, some people shook their heads in secret, while others mocked her.
“Looks like it’s impossible for Shi Youliang’s family to earn money by selling glutinous rice cakes. Tsk tsk, it’s a pity to invest tens of thousands of dollars just like that!”
“That’s right. Although he didn’t sell his glutinous rice cake this time, I can imagine that he probably won’t be able to sell it later on either.”
“Didn’t they say that online shopping is popular now? Why hasn’t anyone come to ask about our things after so many days? Is no one buying them? If I had known, I would have chosen to sell these things in town. They would have sold faster.”
Of course, if he chose to sell his items in town, he would have to guard them. It was hard to say if it was good or bad.
“Hmph, you make it sound so nice. Selling in town? How many of these things do you sell in town? Are they all sold out?”
“I’ll sell them slowly. I’ll eventually sell them all.”
“Oh, in that case, it’s not too late for you to choose a town to sell now. On Little Gu’s website, they only took photos and didn’t ask you to put up the real thing. Aren’t those ginger and sweet potatoes still at home?”
“Hmph, it’s mine. I can sell it however I want. It’s none of your business!”
The villagers’ things couldn’t be sold online, so some people started to make wisecracks.
“Hehe, how nice is that? Bringing the entire village on the road to riches, hehe, is that how you do it? If someone wants to sell something, they have to get a certificate. If they don’t do it, they won’t sell it. If they sell other things, they won’t be saleable. Isn’t that a joke?”
“Fortunately, the things she sells can be left at home. They won’t grow mold or rust for a short period of time. Otherwise, everyone who listened to her will lose a lot of money.”
“Tsk tsk, it’s a good thing I didn’t sell the items online. Instead, I chose to sell them in town. Although the price is a little cheap, I can still sell a lot. I advise you not to expect to sell them online. Be diligent and choose to sell them in town.”
“Can Little Gu’s website sell anything?” A villager said worriedly, “It’s been so many days, but no one seems to have sold anything.”
“Little Gu told us not to worry for now. The reason why our goods haven’t been sold is that the traffic is too small. In two days, someone will buy them. Little Gu also said that the things we sell are of good quality. Someone will find out eventually. It’s just a matter of time.”
“Since Little Gu opened this online shop with the intention of helping us villagers sell the things we left at home, we shouldn’t complain. She opened the online shop and didn’t charge us for the shop space we occupied. She just sold the things and took a commission. If she didn’t sell the things, not only would she not earn any money, but she would also lose money. Therefore, you has to have a conscience.”
“Indeed! Little Gu did want to help us sell something, but she hasn’t sold it yet.”
…
In the morning, as soon as she turned on her computer, Zhou Fangfang opened her shop as usual and browsed through it.
She didn’t find anything, so she went to get a glass of water.
When she received the water, she clearly heard a sentence. “You have a new order. Please check and accept it!”
When Zhou Fangfang heard this, she was especially excited. She didn’t even take the water. She put down the cup beside her and ran to the computer. As expected, she saw a message blinking.
Zhou Fangfang immediately clicked on it and became really excited.
It was really an order!
Someone placed an order for Third Master Shi’s taro.
Zhou Fangfang hurriedly picked up the phone and called Gu Qingming. She was still excited as she said loudly, “President Gu, our first order is here. Someone bought Third Master Shi’s taro. Yes, yes, I’ll go now.”
After Zhou Fangfang finished the call with Gu Qingming, she hurriedly ran out.
When they ran to the village, someone greeted Zhou Fangfang.
“Fangfang, what are you running for?”
Zhou Fangfang said happily, “Someone placed an order. They bought the taro from Third Master Shi’s house! I’ll go to Third Master Shi’s house to pick up the goods now!”
When the villager heard this, she looked a little surprised. She asked, “Really? Someone bought Third Master Shi’s taro?”
Everyone knew that the taro in Third Master Shi’s house was sold at 29.9 dollars for ten catties.
It was just an order, and it cost 30 yuan.
Zhou Fangfang soon arrived at Third Master Shi’s house. She chose ten catties of taro, packed it, and called the courier company to pick up the goods.
Third Master Shi’s taro had been sold.
Everyone in the village knew about this.
Some felt that this was a good start.
Everything was difficult at the beginning. After the first order, there would be a second and third order…
Some people thought that this might be a coincidence or luck. It was hard to say if anyone would buy it later.
However, many villagers firmly believed that since the shop had opened, it wouldn’t be too bad if they sold it.
As expected, orders came in one after another in the afternoon.
That day, there was a total of five orders at 86.8 dollars.
This news made all the villagers in the village happy.
Indeed, with the beginning, everything would get better later on.
They didn’t have to spend much effort to sell the items, but they could still earn money. How good was that?
Everything was going well!
On the fourth day, Zhou Fangfang suddenly received a large order.
A customer ordered 100 catties of taro in one shot.
The customer who placed the order was the first customer who bought the taro.
100 catties of taro. How much was that? 299 dollars!
The farmers would definitely be very happy to receive close to 300 dollars at once.
Third Master Shi happily chose 100 catties of taro. Zhou Fangfang had already asked the courier company to come and collect the goods.
In the past few days, Third Master Shi had sold 140 catties of taro at a high price. He had earned more than 400 dollars, making others extremely envious.
Over the past few days, Third Master Shi had been very happy whenever he saw others.
He would also pick some taros and send them to the Shi family!
He definitely had to thank Little Gu!
