Chapter 220: Simon

"The village chief is here." Secretary Kang stepped forward and was complained by Hongcun.

"Why don't the foreign guests tell us in advance?"

Secretary Kang smiled bitterly: "You can't blame me for this. He came suddenly, and we had just received a notice from the city that he insisted on visiting our village. ”

Hong Cun asked in a low voice, "What is the origin of this foreign guest?" How did you remember to wander around our village? ”

Secretary Kang: "This is the big customer of strawberry jam in your village, the young owner of Simon Food Company, Alfa Simon." ”

He snorted at the two men behind him again, and said in a low voice: "Those two leaders of the Jade Rabbit Candy Factory in the city. It's the one that makes the jam for you. He took the initiative to ask Vice Mayor Zhang for the work of entertaining foreign guests. ”

Hong Cun was stunned. He knew that Yutu Factory wanted to merge with his own company. It's just that there was no movement after that. He thought it was no longer a show. I didn't expect them to send it to the door by themselves.

So he stepped forward and shook hands with Secretary Zhao, the director of Yuan, and gave them cigarettes, introduced each other, and immediately became acquainted.

Then his face changed to a smile that seemed to be magical, eager and polite. A handful shook Simon's hand: "Mr. Simon, welcome, welcome." ”

Simon couldn't stand the strength of the old peasant's hand, and finally broke away, shrunk his sleeves and turned around, and said with a smile: "Hello village chief, I'm here to find Xiao Lingmei." ”

"Ling Mei!" Hong Cun suddenly realized, turned his head and asked Secretary Yang, "Did you see Ling Mei today?" ”

Officer Yang responded: "Ling Mei should review her homework at home." It's almost time for the final exam. ”

Hong Cun said in a low voice: "You go to Lingmei's house to inform you." Let people prepare to prepare. He waved his hand at Simon again: "Let's go, I'll take you to order Mei's house." ”

Simon looked at the scenery of China's mountain villages with high interest and was also seen from head to toe by the villagers as a rare and protected animal.

The home of the mountain.

"Simon?" Ling Mei thought for a while before she remembered this spirit guy from Amelica. Surprised, "Why is he here?" ”

"It's coming." Yue Shan frowned, and he was not very happy to call his wife and children. "Guixiang, Ling Hui. Everyone cleaned up the house together. ”

Guixiang dared to squeak and work immediately.

Fortunately, the house has always been cleaned up, and in the past two years, the conditions have been good, and a lot of old furniture has been replaced, so it doesn't look too cold.

Ling Mei spread a lace cloth on the dining table of the hall, and brought a set of small basins and tea sets of Ru kiln celadon porcelain to her. The square four-legged washing pen is used as a fruit pot, and the freshly picked red strawberries are piled up, which is pleasing to the eye.

Yue Shan watched Lingmei fiddling with porcelain, and said strangely: "When did you buy the fruit pot tea set?" It's pretty good. ”

Ling Mei smiled while making tea: "I bought it from my grandmother a while ago." When I bought it, I just thought it looked good, so I didn't use it. ”

Yue Shan nodded and smiled: "Indeed...... Indescribably beautiful. ”

When the hall was set up, Simon arrived.

Secretary Kang shook hands with Yue Shan with a smile: "Comrade Xiao, let's go to your house again to disturb you." ”

Crossing the mountain to welcome guests into the house: "Look at what you said." Distinguished guests are coming, and it is too late for us to be happy. ”

Yue Shan is to recognize Director Yuan and Secretary Zhao. He shook their hands vigorously: "Those who came today are all rare guests." ”

Simon looked at the Xiao family's courtyard like a curious baby, looked at the well water, and then looked up at the cyan fruit on the lychee tree for a while, and asked, "What kind of fruit tree is this?" ”

"Lychee." Ling Mei smiled and stretched out her hand to him, "Mr. Simon, welcome." ”

When Simon heard the sound and saw a beautiful girl, his eyes lit up, and he gently held Ling Mei's hand and smiled: "Miss Xiao." You're more beautiful than you were last year. ”

Ling Mei smiled: "You are also more energetic than last year." ”

Simon couldn't stop smiling. Don't? Since he brought back Xianyun brand strawberry jam, sales have soared, successfully getting rid of his family's previous economic crisis, and he has successfully obtained the management of the company.

When the guests entered the room, Simon found the tea set on the table before he could sit down, and praised it without hesitation: "Miss Xiao, this tea set is really, really good-looking!" ”

Ling Mei praised him: "Good eyesight." This is the Ru kiln among the four major kilns in China. Once lost, this year our country has just successfully replicated. ”

Simon didn't even care about the strawberries in the fruit pot, held the tea set and looked at it for a long time, and asked, "Can you buy me a few sets?" I'll take it back and give it away. ”

Xiao Jin glared at Ling Mei: Let you show off. This is the official kiln of the Northern Song Dynasty is genuine, how can it be compared with the modern imitation?

Ling Mei choked and hesitated: "Because it is a new product, it is not often seen on the market." The Friendship Store in Guangzhou should be in stock, right? ”

When Secretary Kang heard the translation, he immediately said, "Yes, yes." The Friendship Store is definitely in stock. ”

Simon was overjoyed to get a letter of approval. Only then did he take a red strawberry and sniff it: "It's so fragrant." This is the new variety you have developed, Hongyan? ”

Ling Mei said: "Yes. You taste it. ”

Simon looks at its shape and tastes it, the perfect heart shape is red overall, and the sweetness in the mouth is rich and creamy, and it is incredibly smooth. Simon soon discovered the characteristic of strawberries: thick skin.

In her previous life, after Ling Mei tasted the taste of imported cherries, she deeply missed Shandong cherries. However, it is precisely because its skin is too thin to be transported over long distances, so it can only live in one place. So when she decided to start an export business, she chose a strategy: she must breed fruits with thick skins that are easy to transport.

Hongyan's success opened the hatch for the long-distance transportation of strawberries.

Simon was a shrewd businessman and immediately asked, "Export not?" ”

Ling Mei nodded: "But your country is still too far away." There is no problem with our strawberries being shipped to Asian countries. ”

Simon regretfully ate a few more strawberries. I won't be able to eat it when I return home.

Wiping his mouth, he saw that Ling Mei never asked about the purpose of his coming here, so he had to take the initiative to explain: "I came to you this time to talk to you about the contract for strawberry jam in advance." ”

The village chief and Secretary Kang glanced at each other and pricked up their ears.

Ling Mei Yanran smiled. Knowing he couldn't wait. This year's Canton Fair will be held in a week, and you can really take the lead by ordering good goods in advance.

"This year's strawberry jam ......" Ling Mei paused, "it needs to be served." ”

Simon looked dazed: "Distribution? What do you mean? ”

In her previous life, Hermès's distribution system gave Ling Mei inspiration.

"We launched a new variety of jam this year."

Simon's eyes rolled: "Oh? ”

Ling Mei went back to her room and brought three bottles of ketchup.

Simon suddenly realized: "Tomato sauce." What's new? He frowned, "You should know that ketchup is one of the cheapest foods in the country. A dollar can buy a big can. ”

Ling Mei said: "If you want to buy my strawberry jam, you need to pair it with our tomato sauce that you bought." ”

Simon's mouth almost popped up with the word "profiteer".

It's too much! This is clearly a forced buy and a strong sell!

Look at the rebirth of eighty, the mountains have spirits, and I have fields.
