The eldest lady became popular in the farming variety show

Director Chen didn't expect that they would consider the long-term development of Canglang Village and pave such a way out so early.

In this era where traffic is king, this homemade mooncake, as an internet celebrity product, can be sold at a high price of one to two hundred or even three to four hundred yuan per box.

But they sell them for fifteen dollars each.

Excluding costs, labor, packaging, agency and express delivery fees, their profits are not optimistic.

Director Chen is opposed to the method of making huge profits through live streaming, rather than agricultural assistance projects that drive rural economic development.

"Assistant Director, reserve two boxes of mooncakes for each member of the working group."

The assistant director excitedly took out his phone. Before he could figure out what was going on, Shen Yingyu reported the bill to him:

"There are 53 staff members in the program team. A box of eight mooncakes costs 120 yuan. The exquisite mooncake gift box is 10 yuan for packaging. The total is 13,250 yuan. Please scan the code."

"what?!"

The assistant director suddenly took back his phone and looked at him as if he was robbing money:

"Just now you said two boxes of mooncakes cost 120 yuan. Even if there is an extra 10 yuan for packaging, it would only be 130 yuan per person. The total cost of all the mooncakes would not exceed 7,000 yuan. How come it doubled when it came to you?"

"Assistant Director, what you are given is a box of four mooncakes for trial, and the mooncakes that will be officially sold online are in gift boxes of eight."

Shen Yingyu smiled very smoothly and said, "Of course, we also sell mooncakes in bulk at 15 yuan each."

Chu Yang took out two beautifully packaged gift boxes designed by Zhou Gongqi from under the table.

The red and blue color schemes and the freehand landscape painting with the theme of "Three Rivers Floating over the Moon" fully display the classical charm, and it looks high-end and classy at first glance.

"Assistant Director, the two boxes of mooncakes Director Chen mentioned, do you really think they are the gift boxes you are holding?"

Shen Yingyu openly complained about the assistant director, but in fact he was roasting Director Chen:

"Or do you think that Director Chen would buy mooncakes in bulk as a holiday gift and give them to his hardworking staff?"

The assistant director was too embarrassed to continue arguing. He turned to look at Director Chen and tried to lower his voice:

"Director, the budget is overrun."

"Is the production team short of these few thousand dollars?"

Director Chen scolded the assistant director with just one sentence, which made him feel very disappointed.

He was a man who was too concerned about his reputation. He regretted it very much in his heart that he should not have been soft-hearted and bought the mooncakes from the five chaebols. He was severely cheated of his money, but he pretended to be magnanimous and did not argue with them.

At this time, he could only sacrifice the assistant director to save the dignity of the program team:

"I usually say that you are good at budgeting and managing housework, but you really use this ability to the extreme and even don't want to pay for the benefits of the staff!"

Assistant Director: “…” It was you who clearly said that the additional subsidy cannot exceed two hundred.

Director Chen continued to show off his power in the live broadcast room:

"When I said I was going to give out two boxes of mooncakes, did you really think it was the two boxes of sample mooncakes you were holding? The benefits given to our own people must be selected according to the best specifications and the highest standards. If the budget is not enough, we can allocate funds from the finance department."

Shen Yingyu did not give them a chance to regret, and took two steps forward and said:

"Assistant Director, please scan the QR code to pay 13,250 yuan. Thank you."

The assistant director had just paid the money when Chu Yang and Jiang Hexi lifted out a basket of packaged mooncakes from under the table and began to pack them into gift boxes with swift movements.

This is the first batch of mooncakes baked in a clay oven, and the quality needs to be further improved.

The assistant director hurriedly called a halt, "Mid-Autumn Festival is still a long way off, the production team is not in a hurry to give benefits to the staff, so stop pretending."

Jiang Hexi looked at him without letting him refuse and said, "Ship in the order of payment. This is the rule in the market."

The assistant director knew that the first time was a lesson learned the second time, and that there must be more good mooncakes to come. He calculated:

"As a customer, I specifically requested the mooncakes that will be freshly baked tomorrow."

"There are only 260 mooncakes in this basket, which cannot meet the needs of the program team."

Jiang Hexi comforted him and said, "The first batch of mooncakes baked tomorrow morning will all be kept for the program team. Don't worry, Sister Xi has carefully selected them, and the quality is absolutely trustworthy."

The assistant director opened his mouth hesitantly as if to say something, but finally shut up after Director Chen glanced at him.

Between losing money and losing face, Director Chen decisively chose the former.

[It's so funny! Director Chen lost his wife and his army. He was definitely made a fool. Hahahaha! ]

[This serial killing trick is too classic. First, they send out a sample gift box to break down the opponent's defense, then offer a low price of 15 yuan to lure the opponent into the game, then use a box of eight mooncakes to replace the original, and finally close the net and sell the mooncakes that have passed the test baking. ]

[It's hard to guard against! Not to mention Director Chen, ordinary people who fall into this trap can't easily get out. The second generation of capitalists are inhumane. 】

[Look at how fast Ximei and Xiao Baiyang are putting mooncakes into the gift box. They are almost showing their shadows...]

[+1 to the above, for the first time in my life I doubt Ximei's selection, I don't believe that the mooncakes baked in this clay oven are fine, but so what, it's not me who is being cheated┑(￣Д￣)┍]

[The poor assistant director, in order to save Director Chen's face, became the final scapegoat. ]

At the end of the live broadcast, seven people gathered together for a review meeting to summarize the experience of this successful sales promotion.

Director Chen left the stone house without watching, returned to his small dark room, and sulked by himself for a while.

The assistant director followed closely. He stood in front of the desk with a frustrated look on his face. He said nothing, and his eyes turned red.

"Okay, a grown man has suffered a little injustice, and you still want to cry to me? Hold back your tears."

Director Chen said solemnly, "I won't let you make this sacrifice in vain. Notice to everyone that from now on, you are not allowed to buy any agricultural and sideline products sold by the five chaebols. This rule must be written into the staff code of conduct. Don't be fooled by them again."

The assistant director said gloomily, "I understand."

“We also need to add an employee grievance award.”

Director Chen looked up at him and said, "Anyone who has been wronged at work and cannot vent, like you this time, can go and receive this Grievance Award."

"How many?"

"Five thousand."

The assistant director was visibly delighted. "I will change the staff rules right now and transfer 5,000 yuan to my account."

Director Chen suffered a huge loss this time.

He picked up his phone and saw the message from Chai Fei:

The Useless Second Miss: [I watched the live broadcast and was so angry that my lungs almost exploded. ]

The useless second lady: [How can the five chaebols bully you like this? What right do they have to bully you like this? ]

The Useless Second Miss: [If I were here, I would tell you their conspiracy and tricks in a minute and not let you fall for their tricks.]

An unknown director Chen: [I didn't say anything, why are you so anxious? ]

The useless second lady: [Hubby, please let me come back in the next episode. I can’t bear to see them bullying you like this.]

An unknown director Chen: [Participate in the online voting, and if you win, you can become a flying guest and return again. ]

The Useless Second Miss: [Hubby, Xie Wanyi is now leading the voting list, and I can’t possibly surpass him. Can you… open a backdoor for me…?]

An unknown director Chen: [I have married you, so just stay here and be good. Don’t make trouble.]
