I build an oasis in the northwest

Chapter 129 Forestry Exhibition

a few days later.

Chen Mu's life consists of getting up early to start selling saplings, contacting a few villages that are willing to do farmhouses, and then planting saplings, cuttings, cultivating seeds, and opening a shop.

Even though I don’t have much to do, I am still busy all day long and have no free time.

No, not long after he got up, Chen Mu, who was sitting at the counter looking at the store, started to yawn.

"so boring!"

Because of the death of Tashi’s father, and it’s almost the end of the month, school will start in a few days.

The hard-working young man resigned just like that.

Huang Qingwei, who recently took care of accounts and was promoted to temporary accountant, watched Korean dramas, ate snacks, and secretly wiped tears from the corners of his eyes from time to time. Hearing this, he became angry.

"So even if you are bored, you are not willing to go to the Oil Gourd Festival without taking me?"

Chen Mu stretched out his index finger and shook it, and said emotionlessly: "That's wrong, it's not that I won't take you, it's because there is no room. We can't sleep on the floor that night!"

After saying that, he was still a little embarrassed.

He sounded so good before the Oil Gourd Festival, but in fact it was just like that at the scene.

That is, every household would tie the oil gourd to a stick at the door, then use it to light it. After lighting it, let it fall freely to the ground, and then the family would step forward and step on it.

In fact, this is just a ritual that means to eliminate disasters.

Just like the Xia people need to burn a bonfire at the door on the 56th day of the first lunar month.

So what was blown at that time was to make the whole village glow red and to keep the fire burning all night. In fact, it was just to coax people to come.

With the weather and sandstorms in the northwest, if the fire really does not go out overnight, then a fire will break out and nothing will be left.

Huang Qingwei was not so easy to dismiss. As soon as his face straightened, he was about to speak.

Chen Mu took a look and saw that he had already been complained about four or five times. He was very experienced and spoke first, asking where the TV series was.

The topic was finally changed, and a reckless figure suddenly walked into the store in a hurry.

"Chen Mu, I have something to ask you!"

Seeing that their world was shattered, Chen Mu glared angrily: "Li Gengyun, this is work time. If you do this again, I will deduct your salary!"

"Hmph!" Li Gengyun was not afraid at all. He shook the express letter in his hand and turned around pretendingly: "I thought this invitation letter from a forestry exhibition was very important, but it turned out to be just like that!"

Invitation letter to forestry exhibition?

After hearing this, Chen Mu immediately changed his expression, and the smile on his face was as kind as possible.

He quickly walked out of the counter and said with a smile: "Hey, it's just a joke, don't take it seriously, don't take it seriously."

After saying that, he took the letter away and started reading.

“Dear head of Sanmu Forestry Company:
我们诚意邀请您参加2010年8月30日至9月1日，前来肃省兰市，参加为期三天的国际苗木展销会……

Organizational unit: Su Provincial Forestry Bureau
If you are interested in participating, please explain the type of seedlings expected to be displayed in this nursery stock exhibition, their quantity, the size of the exhibition space required, and contact the person in charge of the exhibition..."

Lanshi, Suzhou Province?

Shouldn't it be Ningxi City, Qingzhou Province?

And it will be held at the end of the month?
This time is not right!

Chen Mu turned the letter in his hand over and over in confusion.

Li Gengyun came up to him, and after reading the contents of the letter clearly, he saw that it was something he had never participated in before, and couldn't help but excitedly patted his shoulder.

"Chen Mu, take me to this seedling exhibition with you."

"..." Chen Mu was speechless.

Before he even understood what was going on, he was already thinking of following him?
I pushed the person away in disgust, thought for a while, took out my phone, and decided to find someone to ask about the situation.

"Brother Dong, I have received an invitation to a nursery stock exhibition in Lan City, Su Province, but wasn't the one you told me about Ningxi City before?" He looked at the exhibition time column and was a little confused.

"And the time is wrong!"

In fact, in normal times, there are many nursery stock exhibitions held, but they are usually notified about one month in advance.

After all, it takes time to start from the exhibition location, invited companies, exhibition preparation, and advertising.

It's not something you just slap on the head and open as soon as you say it.

Otherwise, if the nursery stock exhibition is just a forestry company with no customers, or the customers don't know about it, and only a few customers, it will be a waste of money and time, and the return will be almost zero.

Moreover, some forestry exhibitions are free to attend, while others require booth fees.

Maybe after an exhibition, not a single sapling was sold, but a lot of money was lost.

"Did you also receive the invitation letter?" Dong Rui was very surprised.

Although this nursery stock exhibition is not large in scale, it is considered a relatively famous exhibition in the industry.

Only forestry companies with certain qualifications are invited to participate.

Because of this, although this exhibition is not large in scale, it can be regarded as an exhibition in the minds of potential customers that has a strong willingness to see the exhibition and place an order.

Dong Rui was shocked and couldn't help but ask: "Chen Mu, how many seedlings has your forest farm sold now?"

Chen Mu calculated in his mind, and then replied hesitantly: "I'm not sure how many seedlings are backlogged at the seedling sales point, but there should be about [-] seedlings from my place."

Dong Rui was shocked again.

Suddenly, he remembered a question.

It seems that my store has never received any complaints about Sanmu Forest Farm. Even if I sell it to customers, more than half of the customers will take the initiative to ask about Sanmu Forest Farm's seedlings next time they come to buy seedlings.

He asked in disbelief: "You have never received any complaints after selling these seedlings?"

This is really not there!

It's just that because other saplings have been adjusted and prices have increased, only Haloxylon ammodendron is sold at a low price or at a discount. Therefore, during this period alone, nearly [-] Haloxylon ammodendron seedlings have emerged.

Speaking of this, Chen Mu really wanted to complain: "Brother Dong, I have sold about [-] Haloxylon ammodendron trees. I should be qualified to participate in the Ningxi Seedling Exhibition!"

After all, with so many seedlings, I lost more than 8000 yuan in total.

Now he is just making money at low profits.

"Twenty-five thousand trees!" Dong Rui was shocked again and murmured: "Enough, enough, that's enough!"

When Chen Mu heard this, he immediately became happy. He would inform him later that the seedlings in his forest farm would be restored to their original price according to the market price...

Oh, no!

My seedlings are generally much better than those on the market, so how can they be based on the market price?
You have to set your own price!
Yes, that's it!
After the forestry exhibition is over, after establishing a reputation and getting the order, we will reprice all the seedlings in the forest farm.

Chen Mu was making calculations in her heart, but Dong Rui on the other end of the phone felt mixed emotions in her heart.

Before, I wanted to treat him to dinner every now and then, communicate with each other, and let him do more promotions here.

Unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, he became the person who needed more emotional contact from his side.Thoughts were swirling in his mind, but he continued: "This nursery stock exhibition is quite famous in the industry. Because there are strict review standards for quality and number of complaints, there were quite a lot of customers there during the exhibition. Most forestry companies can get more or less orders, and it is very common for small companies to open up sales."

Since talking about the nursery stock exhibition last time, Chen Mu checked the relevant information privately, but since he had never participated in it, he just took a casual look. Now that Dong Rui said this, he really has something.

"Brother Dong, what kind of exhibition is this? Domestic? Or international?"

Dong Rui replied: "It is considered international."

"Is it?"

"This was brokered by the Su Provincial Government, and a lot of people went there. However, in the past few years, our country did not stand out in the field of foreign desertification control, so the foreign environmental protection bureaus did not pay much attention to domestic exhibitions. Until the past few years, In [-], due to overgrazing and sand erosion in Mongolia, their local government introduced the Haloxylon ammodendron and Mongolian almond cultivated in our country, and achieved good results, so the international community paid attention to the country."

"I see. No wonder Brother Dong reminded me to cultivate more Haloxylon ammodendron and to increase the quantity." Chen Mu suddenly realized.

Dong Rui nodded: "Yes, Haloxylon ammodendron is a sapling that gets the most attention every year. The main business of many forestry companies is to cultivate Haloxylon ammodendron."

After hanging up the phone, Chen Mu was very excited and wanted to see something.

So without any delay, I directly called the person in charge on the invitation letter.

"Hello, hello, are you the person in charge of Zhao Huizhao? I am the person in charge of Sanmu Forestry Farm..."

Zhao Hui was stunned for a moment and said, "Wait a moment..."

As he said that, he put the phone aside, then quickly turned on the computer and started searching the table for the invited forest farms.

I saw on the form that it said [Shilin Forestry (cross out the horizontal line, selling problem saplings, disqualified from this exhibition) - This booth is a substitute forestry company: Sanmu Forestry, Green Peak Forestry... and five other forestry companies]

Dong Rui reacted after seeing this line of remarks.

If Chen Mu saw it, he would probably understand.

Some time ago, the penalty results for Shilin Forestry came down.

"Due to poor management of Shilin Forestry Company, the regional manager X Lei wanted to work with outsiders to sell high-quality saplings to outsiders for their own benefit, and then use problem saplings to fill the vacancies, so as to earn two cents from the profits, which caused the majority of people to Consumers... are now subject to the following penalties:

Shijin Forestry was fined 50 yuan due to poor supervision; its seedling sales outlets were ordered to make rectifications; the complained seedling sales outlet was ordered to close its doors and cease operations and to pay triple compensation for customer losses (note: if the triple compensation is less than 500 yuan, the maximum amount is 500 yuan) Compensation is an integer)..."

After seeing this result, Chen Mu was very unconvinced and wanted to continue to complain, but Zhang Zizheng stopped him.

He said: "Shilin Forestry is a large taxpayer and provides a lot of job quotas. If you complain, the result will be the same. However, companies that are registered and named on it will generally not have a good time."

Chen Mu was still unconvinced: "This punishment is too light. The order for supply of seedlings from Xinjiang Province has still not been cancelled."

"Just wait, there will be punishment measures for them." Zhang Zizheng sighed, looked at Chen Mu, and said seriously: "The punishment is not serious now, it is within the tolerance of the company people, plus the new county magistrate I just took office, so I don’t pay much attention to you as the complainant, but... you are from the northwest, you should know better than me."

Of course Chen Mu understands.

So I had to reluctantly put down other thoughts.

It's a pity that big companies have money and hire a large number of navy to clean up the land, putting all the responsibility on Wu Xiang and others.

Chen Mu was so angry that he had automatically blocked news about Shilin Company for a long time.

However, although the news avoids the important issues, the government certainly understands this.

Naturally, Shilin Forestry was deprived of its exhibition quota.

As for the extra exhibition land, it was also given away and used as a substitute by several small forestry companies that did not need to divide much space.

Sanmu Forestry was one of those who was sent an invitation letter.

After the confirmation was over, Zhao Hui quickly picked up the phone: "Hello, because the exhibition time is approaching, we will now hand over the booth to us to help you decorate it. What are your company's requirements?"

After that, the two communicated in detail about the size of the booth, the number of seedlings, and the price.

As for the booth location?

Chen Mu never felt that he could expect this.

As a small forestry company with little reputation, as long as it's not just a cornerstone, there's no need to communicate with others, because it's useless to communicate.

When everything was settled and he was about to hang up the phone, Chen Mu suddenly remembered something.

"By the way, can grass seeds also be exhibited?"

The nursery stock exhibition held in Ningxi City is held together with the seed exhibition, so grass seeds can also be displayed together on that day.

But for this seedling exhibition, he still had to ask first, otherwise he would bring all the things there and not be able to display them in the end, which would be fun.

"Grass seeds?" Zhao Hui was surprised, thought for a while, and said, "Yes, but this nursery stock exhibition is mainly about seedlings, grass seeds, and the size of the grass plant exhibition space cannot occupy more than one-tenth of the size of the booth. "

Zhao Hui calculated the location, and then said: "Your booth is about ten square meters, so the grass species exhibition cannot exceed one square meter. You also need to prepare banners and slogans by yourself."

After getting an accurate answer, Chen Mu hung up the phone with satisfaction.

With a thought, the system interface appeared in my mind.

[Current vitality value: 943169]

Since the pasture rented by Agudamu was added to the system map according to the current limit, fifty acres have been added to the system map, and the vitality value has increased at a very fast rate.

There are nearly [-] people every day.

No, it's only the 26th, and I've already saved almost one million life points.

After receiving the invitation, Chen Mu excitedly continued to plant trees, striving to reach one million vitality points tomorrow, open the mall, and exchange grass seeds.

Li Gengyun, who was listening to the whole process, grabbed him and said with a very silly smile: "Haha, Chen Mu, how can you go to a forestry exhibition without any help..."

He blinked and looked at him expectantly.

Chen Mu shivered unconsciously and had goosebumps all over his body.

Just when he was about to give him a slap to vent his anger, he thought that the Forestry Exhibition really needed someone to help him.

Otherwise, it seems that it would not be enough for him to look at the booth alone.

Thinking of this, the hand that was originally meant to hit someone instantly turned to grabbing someone.

"Yes, I just need a helper. Let's go and work hard. Let's go to Su Province to participate in the exhibition together!"

Li Gengyun was happy: "Yes, let's go to the exhibition together... Oh, no, why is this so smelly? No, I don't want to do this, and I don't want to get grass seeds!"

Chen Mu caught the person back.

The fastest way to increase vitality is to sow grass seeds, but this step of mixing vitality fees with grass seeds is smelly and tiring. It just so happens that there will be free labor, so can he still refuse?
"If you want to go, just mix grass seeds? If you don't want to do it, then don't go!"

"Ah! It stinks! I won't do it, this is too smelly!" Li Gengyun screamed.

Huang Qingwei, who was sitting in the room watching the drama, heard the sound coming from outside and laughed, but soon began to wipe away tears again.

"Hmm... Jinna is so pitiful!"

outside the house.

Chen Mu, who was supervising Li Gengyun's work, stretched himself and turned a deaf ear to the complaints. He just looked up at the sky:

"Today is such a beautiful day!"
