Chapter 35

When Andinguo and his party returned from the ten-acre vineyard, their expressions were filled with unsatisfactory expressions.

Anyone who looks at the beautiful scenery full of fruits will feel happy physically and mentally. What's more, his own vineyard is so exquisite and perfect.

After arranging for everyone to be seated in the east room, Aunt Hua came out after saying hello, and found Wu Tao to explain the situation of the field visit.

"Secretary An was full of praise for the Ten Acre Vineyard, and took the opportunity of the interview with the reporter from the Daily News to talk a lot. The film brought by the photographer Xiao Wang is almost finished."

Wu Tao nodded. Farmhouse music is still a new thing in Beijiang, and large-scale vineyards are displayed in front of the media and audience for the first time. Naturally, there are many highlights.

"Aunt Hua, I will give the two reporters two hundred red envelopes soon, please do their best in reporting."

Aunt Hua's eyes widened, she didn't expect the half-grown boy in front of her to play this trick so well.

However, this trick is the most effective. Spend a little money and make a big publicity, and get twice the result with half the effort.

After a meal, Andinguo and a group of people were about to head back home. Called Gu Fei and An Rong to give a few words of advice, and An Dinguo did not forget to tell him before leaving the house: "Secretary Li, go and settle the bill."

At this time, Wu Binghua was coming up with ten catties of early-ripening Kyoho grapes, and he forgot to be polite.

Wu Tao hastily declined and said: "Secretary An, it is an honor for us to be able to guide the work in person. How can we accept money from you and the leaders? The grapes are not yet ripe. This is something my dad has searched all over the place. It was only found in the vineyard, so don’t think too little.”

"Look, this young man speaks in a different way!" Pointing at Wu Tao, Andinguo spoke casually, "Since you are here from the representative area today, you have to get this account." Forget it! You're a smart kid, but don't do that with me."

Wu Tao blushed and had nothing to say. Whether it's juniors vs. elders, or ordinary people vs. officials, this identity doesn't have an advantage.

At this moment, Gao Jinda saw the needle and said: "Secretary An, you are a guest from afar, how can you let the district settle the bill? It is reasonable for the task of entertaining to fall on the village head of Liyuan. So I think that I should pay the bill on behalf of the village. ,The most suitable."

An Dinguo turned half of his face, glanced at Gao Jinda, Village Chief Ding, and Accountant Xu with disdainful eyes, and said, "You come? I'm afraid you'll lose my people!"

Although this is not clear, everyone knows that it is the bad habit of posting IOUs in arrears!

Such a public refusal did not save Gao Jinda any sympathy! Gao Jinda was so ashamed that he almost got into a crack in the ground.

In front of everyone, Secretary Li took out cash and settled the bill with Aunt Hua.

Apart from being ashamed, Gao Jinda also had a sense of awakening. He turned around and kicked accountant Xu: "Why don't you settle our bill?"

"Ah?" Accountant Xu has long been used to eating and drinking in the village, so why has he ever paid for it himself? Subconsciously, he groped into his pocket and took out a stack of white notes and two old people's heads.

Obviously, this dog official is not because he has no money, but he just wants to take advantage of his position and act as a tyrant.

With Secretary Li checking out in front, Accountant Xu would naturally not be so stupid as to issue an IOU on the spot. Handing out the two old man's heads, his face was full of heartache.

Wu Tao took the business cards, brochures and leaflets of the farmhouse from An Rong, and distributed them to everyone one by one.

Then they were sent to the gate of the garden, and they watched them get in the car and leave.

...

It wasn't until the sun went down that the courtyard of the Wu family finally calmed down.

"The meal is ready!" Zhang Zhongping yelled in the kitchen.

Zhang Xuemei, who does the cleaning, puts away her broom and is about to go home. Wu Tao hurriedly stopped her and said, "Second Aunt, you've been helping me all afternoon, and when it's time for dinner, I want to have a light meal..."

Zhang Xuemei's carload of melons was sold out in less than two o'clock. For the rest of the time, she has been helping inside and out, and Wu Tao naturally sees it.

After inspecting the vineyard, Wu Binghua pinched off his cigarette butt, walked into the courtyard, and asked Zhang Xuemei to stay.

Everyone entered the east room and sat down at the main table. Heidan and Xiao Jiang had already washed their little hands, and they were waiting with great anticipation for the delicious meal to be served.

Seeing that the bowls and chopsticks had been put away, and his aunt came in with the dishes, Wu Tao hurriedly said, "Wait a minute, let's sort out today's income first."

Seeing that no one objected, Wu Tao took a new notebook and started to record.

Aunt Hua brought the money box over, and opened the lid. The inside was divided into two compartments, and the banknotes, big and small, were scattered neatly.

"This is all the catering income today, including banquet income of 1980 yuan, and beverages and drinks of 695 yuan and 2 cents."

"This is the income from grape sales today. 80.2 catties were sold, and the income was 401 yuan."

Wu Tao wrote it down casually, and calculated today's total turnover by the way: 3076 yuan and 2 cents.

Excluding the cost of raw materials and apportionment of water and electricity expenses, the total is 1140 yuan, and the net income is 1934 yuan.

After reporting the figures, Wu Tao raised his head and said, "Is this income not bad?"

No one answered.

Wu Tao glanced over, everyone was dumbfounded.

2,000 yuan a day, 60,000 yuan a month! Such a large sum of money, in the past, was unthinkable!

Watermelons are selling very fast today, a cart of watermelons is sold out in just three hours. Zhang Xuemei had already calculated the income several times in her heart, and after all the calculations, the net income was 78 yuan, which must be more than her husband earned at the market.

But compared with the number reported by Wu Tao, it is only one-thirtieth of others! It's nothing short of a big deal.

At the same time, An Rong was delighted with the 80 yuan he earned today, and when he heard the figure, he immediately lost interest in the little money in his pocket.

The old man murmured: "It took only one day to earn my coffin out?"

This old man must call the coffin book, and he is really cold.

Zhang Zhongping and Xia Li couldn't help regretting, they knew that the 2,000 yuan was invested in as capital! This income is really against the sky!

Zhang Huilan glanced at her husband, and both secretly rejoiced that she had believed her son's words back then.

Wu Tao was very satisfied with everyone's reaction. Only by using this successful reality as a teaching material can parents and relatives who hold on to old ideas open their eyes and accept more new ideas.

Just when everyone was horrified, Wu Binghua, who has always been conservative, said with a bit of distaste: "On the first day of opening, there were so many people coming to cheer, and it's normal for the income to be high. I don't know what will happen next?"

Aunt Hua is used to presenting statistics to make sense, "Today's passenger flow is 128, even if it drops in the next few days, as long as there are more than 65 people, the net income will break through 1,000."

Wu Tao added: "Even if the decline is only temporary. With the arrival of summer vacation, the passenger flow will definitely increase steadily. Another thing is that the grape ripening period will come, and the daily grape sales revenue will rise in the future, and even exceed the catering revenue."

Everyone couldn't help but cheer up, full of anticipation.

Wu Tao took the opportunity to say, "Through observation all day today, I have a few suggestions."

"First, hire a waiter."

Xia Li couldn't wait to say: "It's just me, my family, don't worry, and I promise not to be lazy."

"Auntie, I've already taken you into consideration."

"Then there's no need? We're busy."

This is the case in the parents' generation, they would rather suffer more for themselves than spend money to hire someone to do it.

Wu Tao had no choice but to present the facts and reason: "Dad, Mom, today's passenger flow is only 128 people, so you are so busy that you don't even have time to eat lunch. After the grapes are ripe, what if the passenger flow reaches 300-400?" ?”

"Will that many people come?"

Wu Tao nodded firmly: "Of course, and only a little more."

After some weighing, it finally passed. The final conclusion is to hire a part-time worker and pay by the day. Anyway, there are a lot of idlers in the countryside, so you don't have to worry about not being able to recruit people.

"Second, after the peak grape season is over, plant strawberries under the grape trellises. This way, we can have another peak strawberry season in the coming year."

Everyone's eyes lit up and they agreed unanimously.

The old man waved his hand and said, "According to me, you might as well be the master of this family from now on."

"I think it will work!" Zhang Huilan said bluntly, obviously having tasted the sweetness.

Wu Binghua was silent for a while, and agreed: "From now on, you are the one who decides on business matters."

Thank you for the recommendation of the single owner "Lonely as the Wind".
