Song Tan's Notes

Qiaoqiao orders 300 potato blind boxes every day and enjoys doing it immensely, feeling that she is making a great contribution to the students.

The students were very satisfied.

After following live streams for so long, I finally feel like I've caught something good.

Although many people still failed to get one, those who didn't get one also found a unique kind of joy in watching others open blind boxes.

—The fact that we managed to snag the mosquito repellent cream earlier is enough to make us happy and reminisce for a long time.

Moreover, many of them have already received the mugwort mosquito repellent cream.

However, compared to them, the first batch of mugwort mosquito repellent ointment was distributed to the border areas.

However, the distance is far and delivery is inconvenient.

Only after a customer confirmed receipt did they send a message to say that they had also received the goods.

The reason I sent the message was because it was our first collaboration, and although the other party had received the goods, they were still unsure about the outcome.

The people on the frontier watched helplessly as this family sold their mugwort mosquito repellent balm quickly and efficiently, then turned around and went to open some potato blind boxes.

Although they admitted that the blind boxes were interesting, they seemed to have no interest in the lucrative mugwort business...

This made them uneasy.

But with so many people buying and frantically snapping up the goods, as if 199 yuan was nothing at all, the people in the border region regained some confidence.

Disappointment, renewed confidence, and anxiety... this cycle has tormented me until today.

Under the scorching sun, they finally received the large box of packages.

Because these are trial products, the quantity in this box is not large.

The package includes 100 boxes of mugwort mosquito repellent cream, 50 mugwort sticks, some mugwort tea, a few simple mugwort sachets, and 10 mugwort stalk pillows.

The logistics staff looked at the items again and again, muttering to themselves:
"The supplies are quite complete."

Many of these haven't even been sold in live streams.

Moreover, the instructions for use are all clearly marked. For example, the non-woven bag containing the mugwort powder says that it only needs to be close to the skin and have a slight warmth to release a light fragrance.

This will then be able to drive away the mosquitoes around you.

Although its effects are long-lasting, they are mild; it is best to wear one on the chest, one on the waist, and one on the legs.

As for mugwort pillows...

Oh dear, isn't that unnecessary?

They also have high-intensity training every day. Under such training conditions, I don't believe anyone can sleep well at night.

Ai Zhu and the others, however, seemed quite interested.

Due to different geographical environments, some accommodations are located underground.

I won't say much else, but those of them who live underground, according to old sayings, always feel that their bodies are a bit damp... Moxibustion can help to get rid of it.

There's also a huge acupoint chart, showing the acupoints for various symptoms that need moxibustion and the techniques to be used!
That's really meticulous.

As for that mugwort mosquito repellent cream—

One box contains 7g, which is about the size of a small box of lip masks for women.

The grown man stared at the tiny thing, then reached out and opened it. A faint, refreshing scent of mugwort wafted out, making him sigh involuntarily.

Then he muttered again, "If this were mentholatum, I wonder how many I could buy."

The person in charge who had purchased the balm at his own expense scoffed, "If the cooling balm works, then go and buy some!"

What's the point of repeating yourself like Xianglin's wife over and over again here?

If this stuff doesn't work, they can just stop ordering. The only loss is the money from this batch of trials, but it's not like we can't get reimbursed. Look how worried they are. At worst, we can just keep things the same.

How does it look like him?
Pay for it yourself! 199 yuan! And such a small box!

Although the system said they would give an extra mugwort sachet as a gift because it was from the same order from the border region, that still costs 199!
Holding his own portion, he hesitated to use it, seeing how tiny it was. Then he looked longingly at his colleague beside him:

"Want to try it? I'll give it a shot."

The logistics department disagreed: "What are you trying?"

"Call the people on duty today over, and have each of them bring a box to try."

After thinking for a moment, he instructed, "The original equipment must be prepared. If this stuff doesn't work, re-equip it immediately." He had heard that online celebrities were now good at creating hype and generating buzz through comments. Although the sensation caused by the mugwort last year had spread throughout the camp, more than half a year had passed, and he couldn't help but feel uneasy about using it again now.

The logistics team was anxious, but the camp was full of anticipation.

Many of them were secretly following Qiaoqiao's live streams.

However, the time I spend on my phone each day is fixed and limited, while Qiaoqiao's live streams are completely unpredictable, so I can only watch the replays most of the time.

If you have something good, there's nothing you can do about being annoyed.

Now, seeing the mosquito repellent cream that they hadn't even had a chance to buy back then being delivered, everyone immediately took it and put it in their pockets!
The logistics manager glared at him: "Why are you carrying this? It's not for you! Use it first and see how it works."

Everyone chuckled sheepishly, unscrewed the box, and hesitated a bit when they saw the tiny amount inside.
"How much should be used?"

The person in charge was also unsure: "The instructions say it's like menthol balm, apply a thin layer to the neck, wrists, or exposed legs and feet..."

They're fully armed; let's test their foreheads first.

I was afraid of the irritation, so I didn't dare apply it to my temples.

But as soon as the cool ointment was applied, the area only felt slightly warm, without any discomfort.

The taste is not pungent at all; instead, it has a light, pleasant aroma of mugwort.

It seems pretty good, but it's so gentle. Is it effective?
Everyone put on mosquito nets and got ready, then hesitantly went out the door.

If all else fails, put it back on quickly, because the mosquitoes here are truly deadly.

The guard post remains the same as it was today.

As soon as the sun dims slightly, you can immediately feel the increase in the number of insects around you.

The mosquitoes were buzzing around, and the staff on duty frowned and immediately asked to bring mosquito nets.

Before they could even make a move, the surroundings suddenly became quiet again.

He even watched as several large mosquitoes approached and then quickly flew away.

Huh?
He blinked in confusion: It really works? And it works so well?

It's better than I expected.

Look again.

As I watched, as I watched, as I watched…

Until the person changing shifts arrived.

The other person stared at his unguarded appearance, their eyes practically radiating doubt.

But there wasn't much to say during the handover. I could only take the mosquito repellent cream from the other person and then carefully and expectantly apply it to my body.

After picking at the mosquito repellent cream with his fingers for a while, his comrade's hand holding the cream trembled, and then he glared at him fiercely.

……

Meanwhile, when the online store received its first positive review, which was also a long review that was too long to write, so they had to add many screenshots.

Then a call came in from the border region.

"According to the original plan, two, no, three times the amount! We want it all!"

Song Tanxin said: I knew it would be like this.

Fortunately, she had enough raw materials in stock, but she didn't have time to make that many, so she could only say:
"Let's wait a little longer. After all, your trial has taken some time, and many of the previous ones have already been sent to the online store's customers."

Damn!

The logistics manager was extremely annoyed upon hearing this: "The money has already been spent, we should have given them more trust!"

But he was afraid of everything.

When the other party asked if they wanted to keep some stock, they were afraid it wouldn't be effective, so they insisted on not keeping any.

Now look at how many bottles they can fill in a day with that small production line in their factory, considering the sales volume of 10 boxes.

Another package is delayed on the way...

I'm so anxious! (End of Chapter)
