Chapter 253: 253. Great Potential_1 Chapter 253: 253. Great Potential_1 Brother Xiaozhang looked at the order list, and couldn’t help but glance at the honey again:
“I see on your group purchase form it says 1000… Why are so many people buying it?”
He couldn’t figure it out.
His family had pondered for a long time before buying bamboo shoots, so why was everyone buying this so quickly! They had only shipped about forty-plus bottles, and here were another ten or so.
Qiaoqiao, upon hearing about the honey, quickly turned his head–that was his responsibility!
“Not a lot, brother, we’re out of stock.”
1000 a bottle and it’s sold out?!
The barrage went wild–
[What? The honey is 1000 and it’s out of stock?]
[I knew all that time I spent seriously learning how to harvest honey was for waiting for the host to raffle and give me a bottle.]
[The person in front of me, let me enlighten you.]
[Brothers, do you remember the price the host originally said when he started selling honey?]
[I thought he couldn’t count, but now it seems… is it possible that I’m just too poor to accept it?]
[Give me the link! Turn the camera! Let me see what makes honey worth 1000!]
[No wonder the host said he’s not short of money, honey for 1000, the eating style is just too ugly.]
[He didn’t even plan to sell to me–I’m that obviously poor, huh?]
However, no matter how everyone chatted, the camera just wouldn’t turn, which made everyone in the live stream very anxious!
[Whatever this underground business is, I command you to let me see it now!]
[Exactly! I can’t afford it for 1000, but can’t I just have a look?]
[I’m different, I said I would support and I can–give me the link.]
However, hearts sent astray, everybody got excited and tipped several rounds, but the camera still didn’t turn.
At this moment, Seventh Uncle was already boiling hot water, preparing to blanch pumpkin vines under the watchful eye of the camera!
Too bad, the food live stream that’s usually most popular, was ignored today.
Because the courier was already taking down several more bundles of cardboard boxes from his van.
He skillfully folded the cardboard, sealed it with packing tape, and then picked up the prepared bubble wrap and air pillows:
“The farthest places could only get next-day delivery with these small cabbages, will that be alright?”
The small cabbages grown with Spiritual Energy were more robust and definitely assured freshness.
“It’s just that I actually advised them not to buy if they’re too far away, but no one listened.”
Because after-sales service was a hassle, but now it’s all on Zhang Yanping.
While Brother Xiaozhang was carefully packing parcels, he still couldn’t help but mutter:
“I don’t get it, twenty bucks for a pound of cabbage, and the express delivery fee for even just the ice packs costs more than twenty, why bother!”
Twenty bucks a pound for small cabbage? And they still desperately buy it??!
The former wasn’t too bad; everyone had bought corn for six or ten bucks a cob before. The price for small cabbage was a bit outrageous, but not to such an extent.
But buying a bunch of cabbages and also paying for ice-packed express without free shipping, that was a whole different thing! Don’t you see, many a transaction worth over a thousand failed just because it didn’t include free shipping.
[Damn! Why are there only lines being spoken right now!]
[I don’t believe it!]
Someone stubbornly said, [This must be an act intended to promote sales, they’re just playing a show for us.]
[I don’t care, I’m paying for the data, why am I only getting to hear lines!]
[Am I not a distinguished live stream member? Why won’t you let me see!]
Brother Xiaozhang, intent on keeping his business afloat, got particularly verbose while working:
“If you ask me, it’s more worthwhile to buy these green onions, garlic, coriander, and Jingjie–look here, one portion is about three ounces, three portions don’t even make up a pound, buy a few more and it’s just one express fee! What a bargain!”
Qiaoqiao silently did the math on the side, “But Brother, three taels also cost 20 yuan! Which one is more cost-effective?”
Brother Xiaozhang was speechless.
He then wondered, “You’re a seller, how can you say that!”
[Hahaha, I don’t know why but I suddenly teared up]
[Three taels for 20 and still so many people buy, don’t I even qualify to look?]
[I want to see, I want to see!]
Xin Jun had just finished tidying up his things in his room–he had moved in less than half a month ago, and now he was moving his workplace again.
He came out and saw Qiaoqiao’s phone still propped up on a table nearby, and couldn’t help but feel puzzled, “Qiaoqiao, are you still live streaming?”
As soon as he asked this question, both Song Tan and Brother Xiaozhang were shocked.
Only Wu Lan was overjoyed, “Ah, are you really live streaming? Mom has this phone stand for you to use, let’s give it a try!”
Numbly, they watched her handle the phone, clumsily setting it up, then she leaned in to check the lens–
“There are quite a lot of fireworks, and so many words–[Finally got to use the stand][Tears of joy flowing down]… What’s this all about!”
She didn’t understand it, but unconsciously turned the lens, aiming it at the merchandise scattered on the ground, and the piles of bubble pillars and cardboard boxes.
Then, as if she had an intrinsic grasp of marketing, she began to shout, “Folks, these are the goods we’re selling today, you can place orders on the link if you need anything!”
After finishing, she asked Song Tan, “I learned this in the TikTok live room… is that how to call it, right?”
What she learned wasn’t the problem, it was just…
“Mom, we haven’t started selling online yet! The link was only posted in our private vegetable buying group.”
Only then did Wu Lan realize she had made a blunder and hurriedly leaned into the microphone again, mixing dialect with Mandarin as she apologized:
“Sorry folks, we don’t have enough stock, let’s just have a look for now.”
Such a ruthless woman!
Such heartless words!
They were all ready to click on the links, so why suddenly were they only allowed to look?
[Is that the honey that costs 1000 a bottle? Why is it just ordinary glass bottles, the packaging looks so careless]
[What’s even more careless is the cabbage piled all over the ground]
[It’s not careless at all! Look how fresh the cabbage is! It looks really delicious!]
[But I won’t buy it for 20 a jin]
[How odd! The host doesn’t want to sell]
[I usually don’t get fooled easily, but I’ve watched your live stream several times, and if you put up a link, I’d still be willing to buy some to try]
They carried on talking amongst themselves, with attitudes of condemnation, support, and spectatorship all present.
However, after Wu Lan said that, she started to help Brother Xiaozhang with weighing and packaging.
Meanwhile, Song Tan was doing a final check of the items in the house; he had no time to spare.
It was only Qiaoqiao who hesitated for a long time and finally squatted down again under Teacher Xin Jun’s complex gaze:
“Then I’ll teach everyone how to pack parcels now.”
The live room was filled with numbness.
Useless knowledge was added once more.
Xin Jun also felt a lonely sensation, similar to bright moonlight shining on a ditch, feeling like the only person in the yard keeping up with trends–a normal person indeed–
He even went to look at the live streaming data, quite impressive, really!
Now, Qiaoqiao’s live room already had 4300 fans, with 5120 people watching.
With just these 4300 fans, he stirred up his live room into a bustling scene, which somewhat surprised Xin Jun–
Because in the live streams he had seen, even tens of thousands of fans might not create such a lively atmosphere.
It seems Qiaoqiao’s live streaming has great potential!
