I was a daigou in the 60s

Chapter 72 Temporary Transition

In the locker room, Xiao Dongqing greeted Yan Xue.

At this time, Yan Xue was still immersed in the events that happened at the Municipal Supply Station in the afternoon.

He sat there in a trance.

Xiao Dongqing was actually the author of that report? Moreover, he also knew so many high-ranking leaders?

Hearing Xiao Dongqing's farewell, Yan Xue was stunned for a moment and waved mechanically.

"Yeah, okay, I'm going to leave soon too."

After Xiao Dongqing left, a while passed.

Yan Xue, who was still hesitating, suddenly heard a scream coming from outside.

She started and stood up.

I was wondering if something had happened and wanted to rush out to see what was going on.

But I heard excited shouts coming from outside.

"Wow, big news! It's definitely big news you can't even imagine!"

That was the sound of Gao Zhicong roaring excitedly like a rooster.

Xiao Dongqing stopped his right foot as he was about to step forward, as if he had a premonition in his heart.

He was about to reveal a helpless smile when Lv Shujuan beside him suddenly exploded.

She had been silent since she came back, but now she was like a volcano erupting.

He slammed the bag in his hand onto the cabinet and roared.

"That's enough! That's enough!"

Xiao Dongqing subconsciously protected the package in his hand.

He slowly stepped back, trying to distance himself from Lv Shujuan.

On the other side, Xiao Dongqing was humming a cheerful tune and walking lightly on the way home.

He had no idea that the heroic feat he had just performed at work had already become a legend among his colleagues.

Thanks to the chef's superb cooking skills, Xiao Dongqing, who had just come out of a state-owned restaurant, took a deep breath.

I can almost smell the tempting aroma of delicious food.

He was holding two tightly sealed aluminum lunch boxes, one of which was filled with crispy roast duck.

The other one is the tender and smooth century egg tofu.

Hunger was brewing in my heart, but I thought about how this delicious meal was prepared for my family.

He resisted the urge to enjoy it alone.

I looked around and saw no one was paying attention.

Xiao Dongqing quickly took out a hot meat bun from his backpack.

He swallowed it in a few mouthfuls and sighed with satisfaction.

After returning home, Xiao Dongqing lay down directly on the wooden sofa.

Open the window, lie down on the old wooden sofa and enjoy it.

I remembered that I hadn’t opened the purchasing group for a long time, so I opened it.

The purchasing agent group was hotly discussing some photos of the report letters she took today.

Everyone is discussing this in this information age.

There are actually people who use the traditional method of reporting letters, and the content of the letters is really unbelievable.

[This is hilarious! It's the 21st century, and department store jobs are still hereditary?]

[Children of non-employees of this company cannot apply for the job? ]

[Xiao Ge, where is your hometown? At first I thought it was from the 1960s or 1970s!]

[Back then, working in a department store was a secure job that everyone envied!]

Thanks to Brother Xiao’s sharing today, I didn’t know there are such traditional places in the world!

[By the way, Brother Xiao, who wrote the report letter? ]

[What does this have to do with you? Could she be a relative of yours?]

Friends in the purchasing group are both enthusiastic and curious.

Xiao Dongqing muttered to himself that his job in the department store was indeed a stable career that many people dreamed of.

However, he certainly would not tell this to his group members, because they simply could not understand Xiao Dongqing's unique situation.

So, after careful consideration, Xiao Dongqing replied in the group:

[AAA Professional Purchasing Agent: (bitter smile) Please don't make fun of me, brothers and sisters.]

My hometown is indeed a very traditional and backward town, and most people there don't use the internet.

[They don't shop online either. For them, a job at a department store is a lifetime guarantee!]

[The report is true, because the atmosphere here is so simple.]

I hope you won't look down on me because of this. (Sad)

After the message was sent, there was silence in the group for a while.

Just when Xiao Dongqing was worrying whether his story was boring, the chat history finally started scrolling.

[…Brother Xiao, it’s really not easy for you! ]

[Brother, I'll send you a red envelope right now, don't take it personally!]

[AAA professional purchasing agent, you are facing difficulties right from the start...]

[AAA professional purchasing agent, your farm stay is in your hometown, does anyone really go there?]

[Will you continue to do the purchasing agent business in the future? ]

Seeing such a response, Xiao Dongqing felt a little relieved.

While happily accepting the red envelopes, he kept saying thank you, with emoticons flying everywhere.

Today’s sharing is not just to gain sympathy, but more importantly to lay the foundation for the future.

When it comes to farm stays, Xiao Dongqing already has a plan in mind.

This would be a legitimate reason for him to purchase goods from outside, and this "business" could not be given up easily.

Therefore, he continued to explain in the group:

[The farm stay will continue to operate, but its main purpose is not to make money.]

Our area is so remote and poor that even to buy food, the villagers have to go to the grain store in town.

This is a considerable expense for them.

So I would regularly purchase some rice, flour, oil, and grain and sell them to the villagers at a lower price.

When Xiao Dongqing said this, he felt a little embarrassed.

He found that his lying skills seemed to be getting more and more sophisticated.

However, his group friends gave him a warm applause for his "good deed".

Some people even directly asked about the specific location of the farm stay and expressed their willingness to go there in person to support it.

Xiao Dongqing hurriedly and politely declined everyone's kindness in the group.

He told everyone that his hometown was too remote.

Located in a valley, there is no public transportation and the only way to get there is to walk over the mountains.

Getting there is incredibly difficult, almost impossible!

This explanation completely dispelled the thoughts of the group members.

Everyone understood and gave Xiao Dongqing a red envelope.

They also made excuses saying that they were too busy recently and would definitely go play with Brother Xiao when they had time.

Xiao Dongqing wiped the sweat from his forehead and exited the chat interface of the purchasing group with satisfaction.

After Xiao Dongqing left the purchasing group, he sat on the old wooden sofa and fell into deep thought.

If you want to truly change your destiny, making money is the key.

Although working in a supply and marketing cooperative is stable, the income is limited and can only serve as a temporary transition.

"Starting a business is the hard truth." Xiao Dongqing said to himself.

He stood up and prepared to go home.

When he reached the corner of the alley.

A middle-aged man in a neat suit walked towards Xiao Dongqing and handed him a cigarette.

"Mr. Xiao, I've long heard of your name."

"Have we met before?"

Xiao Dongqing turned around and asked with a puzzled look on his face.

The man in the suit gave a gentle smile.

“Although you don’t know me, I have heard of Mr. Xiao for a long time.

Your innovative ideas and training concepts are truly eye-opening.”

"Such foresight is rare in the business world."

He held out a hand and continued.
