In his accumulated work, there is another item that needs to be approved by him, and that is the application of small town residents to set up a garage sale festival.

New Zealand is a country of immigrants and its population is made up of people from all over the world, so there are a variety of customs and traditions, as well as a variety of festivals.

According to some statistics, in New Zealand, there are festivals every day for 365 days a year, and people are celebrating.

The government encourages the establishment of special festivals in various localities, one can be preserved as a culture, and the other is that there are festivals and consumption, which can promote economic development.

As a result, New Zealanders have developed a sense that if there is a group activity, they apply to become a festival, and if the festival does not develop, it doesn't matter, and once it does, they will be remembered by the local history as the organizers of the festival.

For New Zealanders without history, their quest to enter history is the strongest.

The Garage Sale Festival is actually a second-hand goods trading festival, and Wang Bo, who is accustomed to Chinese thinking, has a hard time understanding New Zealanders' enthusiasm for trading second-hand goods.

In this country, second-hand goods stores may be open on the main commercial streets, opening their doors generously. New Zealanders also hold their heads high in second-hand stores to exchange second-hand goods, or bring their second-hand goods here to be valued and consigned, and do not feel ashamed to buy second-hand goods.

There are second-hand stores in the city, but there are no such stores in the towns because of the lack of spending power, so the garage sale method came into being.

The vast majority of New Zealanders live in independent houses, and independent houses basically have garages, so if New Zealanders feel that they have too many useless things to put down, or if they move to other cities or even other countries with their families, and many things cannot be taken with them, then they will put their things in the garage for sale.

However, the residential area is not a commercial area, and the flow of people is relatively small, so it is naturally difficult to do business.

So, when a New Zealander wants to do a garage sale, they will find a weekend day, write the sale item, address and time on cardboard, and then put the cardboard on the street to advertise it.

But then again, New Zealand has a small population, and there are few people who see such advertisements, so it is still difficult to get a garage sale, so the garage sale festival was born.

This is a common festival in towns and villages, where on a certain day, families open their garages and put out their unwanted goods to trade with each other.

It was necessary for the townspeople to apply to Wang Bo for the establishment of the festival, because the recent surge in immigrants from the town has brought many new families to Sunset Town.

These new families move in, they don't need something anymore, and they have to buy some new necessities, and if there is a garage sale festival, then they can sell what they don't need on the one hand, and buy what they don't need at a low price.

Speaking of which, this is an opportunity for resource redistribution, according to need, mutually beneficial, and for the townspeople who have little money to spare, this kind of festival is very valuable.

Wang Bo asked Carter to disconnect from the Internet, and then a group of people gathered in the conference room for a meeting to discuss the holding of the festival.

New Zealand's festivals are not always celebrated, such as the Garage Sale, which is not an annual festival, but is held frequently for a long time, and many towns and villages hold it once a month.

Na Qingyang attended a meeting in the town for the first time, during which he didn't speak except for introducing himself and getting acquainted with each other, just quietly listened to everyone's discussion.

The main theme of the meeting was not to discuss whether to hold it, but how to hold it, so after agreeing on the time and publicity method, the meeting could be dismissed.

After the meeting ended, Wang Bo left Na Qingyang and asked, "Brother A, do you have any ideas?" Why didn't you say a word just now? ”

Na Qingyang smiled bitterly: "I won't apply for employment first, I have to sign up for an English class first, I have worked hard to strengthen English training in China, but no, New Zealanders' English is not the same as what I learned." ”

That's really the case, Wang Bo patted his forehead and said, "Forget about this, okay, I'll find you a teacher to learn, your English really needs to be strengthened." ”

The Garage Sale was booked, with the first festival taking place on the second weekend of March and lasting two days.

The town is simple to publicize, and Carter has built a forum belonging to the town through the smart city network system, which can be logged in to the web page on the computer or the APP on the mobile phone, and the message can be posted on it.

In addition, such a festival should be as wide as possible, and Aocheng, Wanderertown, Louis Town, and Tahiti, which is his sworn enemy, must be promoted.

Wang Bo didn't need to do these tasks, Bowen took the lead and Kidd cooperated, and the two produced a publicity plan, using billboards to match newspaper publicity, and the news of the town's garage sale festival spread.

In addition, Bowen asked Wang Bo for approval to invest in a large billboard: the kind of billboard that stands on both sides of the road, ten meters high, and the billboard area is five square meters, which is very eye-catching.

This billboard, which includes a support frame and a plaque, costs a total of 50,000 New Zealand dollars, and the price is very high, but it can be used repeatedly in the future, and even receive advertisements, so the later income is also considerable.

Since mid-March, billboards have been erected with a huge poster with images of various furniture and daily necessities, in addition to an eye-catching advertising slogan: Handsome guys and beauties come to date, I'm waiting for you in Sunset Town!

This is an advertising slogan designed by Bowen to promote the town when Wang Bo first came to Sunset Town the year before last, and now it is finally used, which makes the deputy mayor very happy.

For this garage sale festival, the residents of the town are still very serious, and after entering the second week of March, Wang Bo often sees someone tidying up the garage when he commutes to work.

After spending a few days at the castle, he gradually got used to life in New Zealand.

They lacked people to communicate with, but they didn't have nothing to do - Wang Bo once carved out a vegetable garden and hired a Maori to take care of it, and Bo Dad's mother was not only good at fishing, but also good at farm work, and ran to take care of the garden.

As long as they are happy, Wang Bo knows that this does not tire them, since this is the case, then they can go and work if they are willing to go.

However, he estimated that his parents were also interested in the garage sale, so he told them that the things sold by every household on that day were very cheap, and they could go and see them.

Bo's mother asked, "Then if we go to sell some vegetables or something, can we do it?" ”

Wang Bo said blankly: "It's hard for me to say, there are vegetables and fruits for sale in the supermarket, I don't know if the townspeople will buy them." ”

Bo Dad waved his hand and said, "What do you mean, will there be a chengguan or something?" ”

Wang Bo was embarrassed: "Dad, what are the chengguan in the town?" ”

Bo's mother muttered, "I think your work is like a city manager." ”

Wang Bo: "......" (To be continued.) )
