Dad's Pastoral Life

Chapter 202

Tang Wei didn't follow up and asked, but said, "Then I'll discuss with them and see if they want to change the dinner time."

Cheng He said: "Don't, why change the date for me? You get together first, and we get together again before the Chinese New Year."

So this matter is settled for the time being.

After chatting for a while, I heard a burst of electronic bells ringing, and the children on the playground all went to the classrooms, and the huge playground immediately seemed to be swept away, quiet and quiet.

After watching for a while, he was about to go back when he saw Yu Fei walking out with a smile on her face.

She was still the same as before, enthusiastic and active in her work, and she didn't neglect her work because no one cared about her here.

Cheng He has a good eye for people.At that time, he didn't care about Yu Fei's not being a veteran in the workplace, so he invited her because he valued her.

Yu Fei walked out of the office and strode this way.Looking at Cheng He from a distance, he raised the document in his hand, as if signaling him to wait.

Cheng He didn't leave in a hurry. She came out of the office so directly, maybe she had something to ask herself.

Judging by her look, it should be a good thing.

It's the twelfth lunar month, and it would be great to have something good to do.

Yu Fei came over with some documents and showed them to Cheng He, her expression couldn't help but be overjoyed.

Cheng He took the list and looked at it, and he couldn't help but say, "Not bad! That's great!"

The advertisements placed in the United States have worked, and now she has received a big order—an order for [-] pieces of bamboo art, and she has just received a deposit.

The deposit is 30% of the purchase price.The total price of 300 pieces of bamboo weaving is nearly [-] million, and the deposit is nearly one million.

Cheng He was very happy, and said repeatedly: "Great, well done!"

The amount of advertising in the United States is not small, and the current batch of orders has only paid back part of the cost, but this is finally good news.

Moreover, Yu Fei said that she still has a few orders on hand, which are under negotiation and are expected to be settled before the year.

To be honest, when she chose to work in Taohua Village, she had a gamble mentality, and she didn't know if it would work.

After all, she wanted her to have a great youth, but she went to work in a village - she was too embarrassed to mention it among her classmates.

Now, she feels that her vision is really good!

I started the sales of a private brand by myself—well, it’s an exaggeration to say that I’m exaggerating, after all, if there is no advertisement by the boss in the United States, this would not be such a big achievement—anyway, her sales now The performance and commission are very good.

And, looking to the future, it's a promising career!

Working here, no one restrains her, no one robs her of her performance, no one bullies the rookie in the workplace with her power, she really feels comfortable doing her job.

So, after receiving the deposit, she immediately told her boss.

Cheng He was very happy and asked, "What about the delivery date? Is it too late? The village is about to celebrate the Chinese New Year, so it's impossible to catch up with the delivery during the Chinese New Year, right?"

Yu Fei smiled and said, "Don't worry, I have also told the customers about these issues, and they understand very well, the delivery date has been postponed for half a month."

Cheng He nodded, in a good mood.

Right now there is only one problem left - after there are more orders, shipping is a problem.

There are only a few people in the village who know how to weave bamboo. Even if some young people can follow along in the past few months, it will not be enough to add them when orders increase in the future.

Insufficient staffing is a problem.

Of course, no matter how manpower is insufficient, we can't just let people with incompetent skills do it and make up for it.It is not easy to achieve word of mouth today. The more successful you are, the more you cannot take it lightly.

Yu Fei said with a smile: "I really hope that the art learning center will open sooner and recruit more people sooner. By then, more people will learn, and our ability to accept orders will be even greater."

Cheng He nodded and said, "Well, I will step up this matter."

The art learning center has been built, and it will be able to formally enroll students in the next year.In order to build momentum, Jiang Qian had already publicized it so long in advance, saying that he would hold an opening ceremony.

For the grandness of the celebration and to increase the reputation of the learning center, he also invited his old friends to come together.

Cheng He is going to visit those old artists on Sunday and see if he can ask them for more support.

Now it seems that there is one more thing to do: that is to prepare for the promotion of enrollment.

The Art Learning Center was originally designed to train Taohua Village's bamboo weaving and Jiang Qian's woodcarving art. No matter who is willing to learn, as long as he has mastered the skills, he can work in Taohua Village and make money.

This is not the kind of technology that is useless after learning, and it should be easy to recruit people.

Well, we need to find an opportunity to deal with this matter properly.

It's not difficult to recruit people. Anyway, there are many people in the nearby villages who can't make money. If you let them know that they can do things and make money by themselves after learning skills here, they should come. Many people come.

Now that I think of this, there is one more thing I have to plan ahead.If there are too many people, the village will become chaotic, and management must be strengthened.

Cheng He suddenly felt a little bit, why did he have to give birth to the life of a village chief, and he always has endless worries?To be honest, the village head doesn't really worry as much as he does. The village head doesn't understand these operations and management, so he can't worry about it even if he wants to.

Well, I won't think about it so much after finishing the matter of the art learning center.

Thinking of this sentence, Cheng He suddenly remembered some common sayings: Well, it will be much better when the child enters kindergarten; after entering kindergarten, he said, it will be fine when the child enters elementary school; Work, get married and have children...

Then it seems that in this way, my own life is almost the same-people seem to have endless worries and worries.

Cheng He shook his head and smiled, wondering if this was comparable.Anyway, so be it.Do the things at hand one by one.

Things are on the right track, and everything is done according to the regulations, so he doesn't need to worry too much.

After the order was finished, Cheng He stopped disturbing Yu Fei and let her go to work with peace of mind.

In addition, the Chinese New Year is only twenty days away, so let her arrange the annual leave by herself.See how much work is still on hand, see the priorities, see which things can be postponed until the next year, and arrange it yourself.

If there is a problem with customer service, you can also hang up a notice, when the holiday is on, just explain to the online buyers.After all, express delivery also has annual leave, it's not that their family doesn't go to work during the New Year.

When he got home, Cheng He was free.

Except that there are still some things for him to deal with in the art learning center, other things are not so urgent for the time being.

If the art learning center enrolls students, he thinks it should be ready to start.

Although there is no official opening ceremony, but this can be ranked first, because the recruitment cannot be recruited in a day or two.

Regarding the actual operation, he carefully weighed it - the bamboo weaving art in Taohua Village may have to be changed to assembly line work in order to absorb the newly recruited apprentices.

It is impossible for apprentices to produce a finished product that can be sold all at once, but if they cannot make money all the time, they will definitely not be able to stay.

Only by letting them follow suit and earn at least a little income can they be stabilized.

Let the apprentices do simple things, and the masters in Taohua Village do difficult technical work. This kind of assembly line work can maintain long-term development.

After the apprentices have learned all the techniques and are able to stand alone, they can operate however they want.

Of course, this is a matter of detail, and he has to discuss it with the villagers.

Although the villagers had told him before that they didn't understand these things, it was good to let Cheng He make his own decisions.

However, now that the production model has changed, let them know and get used to it.

According to the old rules, he still told Cheng Shi's father to tell him to talk to people of their generation.

……

When Cheng Shi's father gathered most of the people in the village, when he said that the village had received a batch of [-] American orders, everyone could hardly believe their ears.

Ten thousand pieces!

The current order situation in Taohua Village is due to the operation of the online store, and they are all scattered orders, one or two.

Accumulated, the average day is more than 200 orders, which are distributed to the whole village, and there are basically no overnight orders.

Although the order is not interrupted very much, there is no situation where the order piles up and cannot be finished.

But this sudden order of [-] pieces came from abroad, which made many people very excited.

When the big order comes, each family can get a lot.What is divided is equal to money.

It's just that the Chinese New Year is coming, what should I do?But is it a year?
Not long after, someone immediately stated:
"No matter how many orders come to my house, I promise to finish them. I won't stop until New Year's Eve!"

"What are you afraid of if you have an order? I can finish it no matter how much it is. Anyway, other people play it and I don't play it. Isn't that okay?"

"Yes, yes, you are not afraid of having an order, but you are afraid of not having an order."

"It can be done, it can be done, it doesn't matter."

Most of the people said that, and each of them was beaming with joy.

With an order, it is money to make it.Who does not like?
Cheng Shi's father smiled and said again: "There are still orders to be discussed later!"

This order can be rushed out within the next year, what about the next one?

For an order of [-] pieces, even if they don't rest for a day, they will have to spend more than a month to complete it.

Even if they are over the age of [-], and rushing to catch up with these orders every day, what about the scattered orders in China?What about the order we are discussing later?The problem of insufficient manpower always exists!
This question made most people laugh.

This is a smile of joy.

I never even dreamed about it, and there is a day when there are too many orders to eat!
This is really a lot of money flowing out!

Cheng Shi's father told Cheng He's idea, to recruit people from outside as apprentices, let them do some simple processes, and the villagers do complex and technical processes, so as to increase the output.

This is no longer the original production mode - it used to be an order-to-household, who made two bamboo dragon lanterns, who made a bamboo ox, and who made three bamboo dragonflies.

Anyway, it is the whole model, and each family makes its own.

It's different now, it has to be changed to a flow-style homework, and some people who don't know how can be taught to do it slowly.

Some people who are not so active in their minds finally understand this truth after hearing Cheng Shi's father speak slowly.

Originally, it was a bit reconciled to let others earn the money from my own village; but otherwise, it seems that it will not work. The orders are piled up and cannot be delivered, and the customers have no confidence. How can I receive orders in the future?
After some thought, some people have suggested:
"Then we should call our relatives to come!"

"Yes, the fat and water don't flow into outsiders' fields."

The relatives of each family are actually people from nearby villages.This does not violate Cheng He's original recruitment plan.Teaching outsiders, some people are afraid that they are reluctant, and they should teach their relatives more attentively.

Anyway, let's do it like this, you can also invite relatives, if the number of people is not enough, you still have to make a big move.

After such a chattering discussion, the matter was on everyone's mind.

The news of overseas orders really strengthened their backbones, and everyone seemed to be a lot more hardened.

After this order is completed, every family can get a lot of money.

Things that I didn’t dare to think about before, things I didn’t dare to plan, things I didn’t dare to buy, schools I didn’t dare to enroll my children in, parents I didn’t dare to be filial to myself... Now, I can think about it.

This year should be very enjoyable.
