The Story of Qingfeng Village

Chapter 135 The Big Boss Is Here Part [-]

Zhu Xia led Cai Mingkang across the embankment, through a bamboo forest, and on the path next to Li Fumin's house.

Because of repairing the base station, the path has been widened, and the weeds and thorns on both sides have been cut down for firewood.In the past, only one person could walk, but now it is very spacious for two people to walk side by side.

Zhu Xia: "The base station tower is being built above, and it won't be long before there will be a signal, and mobile phones and computers can be used."

Cai Mingkang: "That's right. No matter what you do now, you can't do without developed communication and fast transportation. Without these two things, you can't develop. It makes sense to build roads before getting rich. Now One more thing to add - network transportation."

Zhu Xia: "It's not easy for you to come here from the countryside, is it?"

Cai Mingkang: "Well, tractors and small cars are okay for tractors and small cars, but it is difficult for large cars."

Zhu Xia: "The construction of this road will start soon, and it will be no problem to run big cars in the future. Also... You see, the SN Expressway passes by there, and construction will start at the end of the year. There are also several railway lines..., At that time, Ningcheng will be a traffic and transportation hub city. At that time, this place will develop rapidly, and it will not be like this when you come again."

Cai Mingkang laughed, and laughed out loud.

Zhu Xia: "Why don't you believe it?"

Cai Mingkang: "No, I believe it. Teacher Zhu, I found that you have a kind of pride in everything you do."

Zhu Xia: "Isn't it good to be proud? We need a heroic feeling."

Cai Mingkang: "I completely agree. It was your enthusiasm and heroism that infected me at the beginning, and inspired me to continue to struggle when I was about to give up. Thank you, Teacher Zhu. I will always remember your help to me. What can you do? Go ahead and order."

Zhu Xia smiled and said, "It's all your own efforts, and I'm just doing it with a little effort, so don't take it to heart."

At the beginning, when Cai Mingkang first started producing kudzu food, no one was optimistic about him. People in the village said that if you don’t eat kudzu powdered pigs, who do you sell them to?
Cai Mingkang does not believe in evil. He knows that kudzu root has both medicinal and food value, but in the past, everyone only knew about its efficacy in medicine, and it was just a traditional Chinese medicine in pharmacies. He was willing to be a crab eater, so he followed the practice of lotus root powder and processed kudzu powder into ready-made instant food.

The thing was made, but there was no market at all in their small county town in the mountainous area. At that time, he carried his bag of kudzu root powder to find a market and a partner. He went to many department stores, but he hit a wall everywhere, and no one was optimistic this.

That day he was squatting at the entrance of the county party committee guest house. There was a trade fair inside, but he couldn't get in.

The guard at the door was quite sympathetic to him, saying that it's not that I don't let you in, everyone has received invitation letters, do you have one?no?
Besides, what kind of powder are you, can you eat it?What to do if something goes wrong, you don’t have anything on it?There is no packaging, no manufacturer...the products in the house are all beautifully packaged..."

Cai Mingkang: What do I want and I still squat here?

It has long been placed on the shelves in a dignified manner.

But he can't yell at the doorman, he is also doing his duty.

Uncle, what you said makes sense, and I understand it all. Isn’t it because we don’t have the financial strength to set up a factory?So you need to find someone to invest in, not to mention the packaging, it can be made into a high-end gift box!

Uncle, let me in, maybe I can find an investor. "

Seeing the poor doorman he said revealed a piece of news to him.

"Although I can't let you in, those who participated in the meeting will come out. You can go find them then!"

"Who are you looking for?"

The uncle said: "If you want to find it, you can find those big bosses from other places. They have money, and these small local businesses can't talk about it by themselves. How can they have spare money and spare energy to invest in you?"

"Grandpa, you are really my dear uncle, you are so kind, but I don't know these big bosses either? I need someone to introduce you."

"This is a problem... Hey, yes, this time an interview team came down from the provincial capital. They have a TV station and a newspaper office. I think the reporter Zhu from the newspaper office is very good. She even came to interview yesterday. Let me say a few words, hehe, if you ask her for help, it will be useful, she knows all the big bosses, if she promotes you in the newspaper, hehe, you will be famous, do you want any sponsorship and investment?
"Which one is Reporter Zhu, I don't know him."

Guard: "You go over there first and wait. I'll call you when she comes out."

Cai Mingkang obediently ran to the next wall and squatted.

If a bowl is placed in front of him, others will think he is a beggar.

After finally waiting for the end of the meeting, Cai Mingkang looked eagerly at the crowd who came out.

He saw the doorman stopped a woman, said something to her, and pointed to Cai Mingkang who was leaning against the wall.

Cai Mingkang: Is she reporter Zhu?
The uncle waved at him, and he hurried over.

"Reporter Zhu, that's him, my fellow townsman, he said he made a kudzu root food, and he didn't know if it would work. You're a reporter, you're well-informed, please show me..."

Cai Mingkang glanced gratefully at the doorman.

The uncle also gave him a wink, meaning: I can help you here, and then it's up to you.

"Reporter Zhu, please help me take a look. I've been in the county town for a month, and no one knows what I'm talking about..."

Zhu Xia looked at Cai Mingkang, who looked unshaven.

Know what he said is true.

"You have 10 minutes, we're going to the countryside later..."

"Enough, enough... 10 minutes is enough..."

Cai Mingkang was so excited that he was incoherent.

He shouted at the doorman: "My fellow, do you have a bowl and boiling water?"

"Ah?! Yes, yes."

"Lend me to use..."

"It's in the reception room. Come in."

The doorman produced an enamel bowl and spoon.

"Is this okay?"

"Ok, Ok."

Cai Mingkang took the bowl.

Zhu Xia took her leisurely time to watch what tricks he conjured up.

Cai Mingkang took out a bag of pueraria powder from his backpack and said, "Reporter Zhu, look, this is processed pueraria powder..."

Poured some into a bowl.

Zhu Xia saw that the powder was white and delicate.

Cai Mingkang first used a little boiling water to moisten the kudzu powder, then added a little more boiling water, stirred, and after a while, a small half bowl of crystal clear kudzu powder appeared.

Cai Mingkang took out another bottle from his bag, opened the lid and smelled a sweet smell.

Zhu Xia: "Is this honey?"

"Reporter Zhu has good eyesight and good sense of smell. That's right, it's wild honey from our mountains..."

Pour some yellow honey into it and stir together.
