Blending of Planes: I am leisurely farming

The early morning sunlight shone through the gaps in the curtains and into Haley's room, bringing hope and vitality for a new day.

Sean came to Haley's residence with the edited video, and he was accompanied by Claire, who had previously agreed to meet at the bus stop.

Their arrival was like a spring breeze, instantly lifting Haley's mood.

"I'm rich!" Haley's cheer was clear and melodious, like a lark in the morning light, full of vitality and joy. She leaned back excitedly and bumped into Claire who was leaning over. The two smiled at each other, and Claire was immediately hugged by Haley and walked towards the computer screen together.

Sean's eyes passed over them and fell on the screen, which displayed the background data of the account they jointly operated, "Pelican Town Time".

After a week of fermentation, their video playback volume has exceeded 160 million, bringing in G in revenue. The number of followers soared to 2, and the private mailbox was also flooded with the enthusiasm of fans.

All of this is undoubtedly the best reward for their efforts.

Haley's eyes sparkled with excitement and anticipation. Her mind was like a ignited spark, jumping rapidly, thinking about how to make good use of this income that meant so much to her.

Although she was not lacking in material things, this money was earned through her own sweat and talent. To her, it was an invaluable achievement.

"Sean, I heard that this landslide was caused by the aging of protective facilities?" Haley suddenly turned to Sean and asked.

"Yes, that's true." Sean nodded and did not deny it. In his opinion, the aging of protective facilities was indeed related.

"Sean, I want to donate my income to maintain the town's gradually dilapidated infrastructure. Like you said in your comment under the first video, we don't want Pelican Town to disappear." Haley's voice was firm and determined.

Recalling the experience of going out to shoot yesterday, Haley couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

In order to shoot the video, they were driving Sean's car and passing the blocked mountain road behind the mountain, where they witnessed the tragic scene of the mudslide. Trees fell, roads were damaged, and the scene was in a mess.

Because Haley had not participated in the rescue of Geller before, she learned some footage through media channels. For the first time, she understood so clearly the harsh natural environment that some people faced.

At that time, the townspeople organized by Lewis were working on clearing the road.

Most of them are middle-aged and elderly, with traces of time on their faces. They wear patched cloth clothes, with ropes tied around their waists. Although their steps are heavy, they are extremely steady. Each of them carries a heavy load in his hand, and the basket is full of mud and rocks cleared from the mountain.

They walked cautiously, their rough knuckles gripping the hemp rope tightly, and their canvas shoes testing the solidity of the ground under their feet with every step to avoid slipping and getting into danger.

One of the old men especially caught Haley's attention. His back was hunched like a bow and he walked unsteadily, but he refused to stop and rest. His firm eyes and persistent figure deeply moved Haley.

My soul seemed to be touched, and a seed of wanting to do something was deeply planted.

"Well, that's a great idea. We can contact Lewis and see if we can use the money to support their work." Sean fully supported Haley's proposal.

"Good idea!" Claire agreed. "Then I'm willing to donate half of my income. This will not only help the residents of Pelican Town, but also make our video more meaningful."

Although Claire's financial situation is not good, she knows that the value of money lies not only in itself, but also in how to use it to create greater value.

"It would be great if this money could be used to repair the bus lines. Every time I take the bus it's so bumpy and uncomfortable," Claire said half-jokingly.

"Thank you, Claire." Haley gave Claire a big hug. She was so outspoken that she realized at this moment that she had ignored the feelings of other team members.

Just like Confucius criticizing his disciple Zigong for doing good deeds without asking for compensation, Haley wanted to donate her share of the team's compensation without discussing it with others. This decision was indeed inappropriate.

But she also felt Claire's magnanimity and kindness, which is why she thanked Claire, and the relationship between the two sisters warmed up again.

"Well, in addition to the income from the first video, we will donate 10% of the income from our videos in the future, and the remaining 90% will be divided equally among the three of us. How about it?" Originally, Sean took 4% of the video income. This distribution means that Sean gave up % of the income to support the reconstruction of the town.

"However, we can't just rely on donations to solve the problem." Sean continued, "In the short term, we can donate money to the town's co-construction fund, but in the long run, we should set up our own foundation to ensure that every penny can be used where it is most needed."

Sean’s past life experiences made him have reservations about donating, and he knew that as the cause grew and expanded, they would need to do a better job of managing and using the donated funds.

"Sean, your idea is very thoughtful. Setting up a foundation will not only allow us to participate more directly in the construction of Pelican Town, but also ensure the effective use of funds." Claire agreed.

"Also, can donations to officially recognized foundations be part of the tax deduction?" Haley raised a practical question.

"Yes, this is also something we need to consider in the future." Sean affirmed Haley's idea.

At this point, Sean also began to reveal his other plan: "Have you ever considered doing live video streaming?"

"Live video broadcast? Is it the kind with dancing and singing? I've made it clear that I won't pose in front of the camera, and I don't want Claire to become the object of other people's entertainment!" Haley looked at Sean with confusion and vigilance.

"It's unfair. It's not what you think. How can I push my own beauty away? I can't get enough of her to appreciate her myself." Sean quickly clarified, "I want to help Pelican Town's agricultural products find a stable sales channel through live broadcast."

Donations are merely a temporary solution and do not address the root cause.

Sean elaborated in detail on his idea of ​​live broadcasting to help farmers, hoping to help Pelican Town achieve sustainable development in this way.

"You see, the quality of agricultural products in Pelican Town is not bad. On the contrary, it can be said to be second to none. The reason why they cannot be sold at a high price is because the buyers take advantage of the poor transportation and arbitrarily lower the price. And we don't have the ability to find downstream and sell the goods in our hands." Sean analyzed.

"As long as this problem is solved, most of Pelican Town's difficulties will be solved, and live broadcasting to help farmers is a good way to promote Pelican Town's agricultural products."

"Will there really be so many people watching and buying our products?" Haley still has some doubts about this.

"Of course, the charm of live streaming lies in its immediacy and interactivity. The audience can directly see the real situation of the product and feel our love for the product and our deep affection for Pelican Town. The transmission of this emotion is more powerful than any advertisement," Sean said confidently.

"But without buyers, how can we get our products to consumers?" Claire raised the key question.

"Well said. This is also the direction I will focus on in the future. The construction of logistics is indeed important. I already have a candidate for the construction of logistics, Shane. Claire, you should know him. He is also your former colleague. He is my first choice."

"Indeed, he has been doing related work in Joja Mart. No wonder he resigned a few days ago. That's why." Claire seemed to have misunderstood something.

"I have also made arrangements for Abi. During this period, I have asked her to follow Pierre to familiarize herself with his sales channels and try to connect with them. With the help of their fresh food transportation channels, we can build a national transportation network."

"Of course, this is just a conceptual plan. It will take several years to realize it. Now all we have to do is make a good video." After the big plan was completed, Sean brought the two women back to reality.
