Song Tan's Notes

However, Song Tan agreed, but she still wanted to ask Qiao Qiao again after her broadcast ended.

He then said, "Let's meet at home in half an hour and discuss the details then?"

Just then, Lu Chuan came over with freshly washed peaches, followed by a majestic dog wearing a silver eye patch.

The other person had a straight stick dangling from their mouth, and walked around proudly in this wide area.

He explained to Song Tan, "The princess is a bit stubborn. She gets stuck here and there in the woods, and she runs very fast. I'm afraid I'll knock out her teeth."

Silly dogs are prone to losing their teeth when they play, especially on a hot day when they've been running around all day and need a break.

Secretary Wang looked at the spirited dog and couldn't help but exclaim, "It's so well taken care of!"

He paused, then added, "This stick is really straight."

Hearing someone praise the stick, the princess released her grip, letting the stick fall to the ground with a "thud," and then wagged her tail and stumbled into the crowd.

Before Xiao Zhu could even speak, he plunged his head into the red bucket and began gulping down water.

Silence fell again, broken only by the increasingly clear sound of drinking water.

Lu Chuan didn't understand why everyone was so silent, so he simply handed over a few washed peaches:
"Would you like another one?"

Secretary Wang remained expressionless, carefully observing her leader's expression, but ultimately reached out and took one for him.

……

Meanwhile, after showing everyone the peaches in the live stream, Qiaoqiao happily said:

"We haven't had time to pick the peaches yet, so we won't be selling them this morning. We'll come back to pick peaches and start selling them at 6 p.m., and we'll bring more people with us then."

"Children, peaches are not a necessity, they are very expensive, so please be sure to pick them according to your means—come on, now I'll teach you how to pick peaches!"

Barrage:……

You've eaten it, you've talked about it, but what's the point of not providing a link?

[With the sudden start of the live stream and fewer viewers in the morning, let's hurry and grab a spot!]

[I learned how to pick peaches last year, but I won't learn it this year. Can I just sell them directly?]

【Teacher Qiaoqiao, I can pick peaches for you! I won't charge you!】

[Um... this poor but tongue-tied person timidly asks: Are peaches the same price as last year?]

[Probably not, many things have gone up in price this year]

[That's how it is with top livestreamers; once their popularity increases, they start raising prices and imposing purchase limits.]

[Newcomer, don't talk nonsense. Our Qiao Qiao has always been like this, even before she had any fans.]

You get what you pay for; I'm happy to snatch it, and I can get a loan!

[Yes, this is a heartless streamer. Why are you still following him? Listen to me and unfollow him!]

[Exactly! Qiaoqiao is a master at ripping people off, so don't be foolish!]

Qiaoqiao walked into the peach grove with her phone in hand.

Meanwhile, everyone was focused on the live stream chat, trying their best to concentrate so they could ignore the princess who had finished drinking water and was happily playing with a stick in her mouth, and the conspicuous big red plastic bucket.

The leader frowned slightly, pointed to a few of the comments above, and asked, "Are these what people call trolls? If we encounter them, do we need a professional team to handle them?"

Song Tan glanced at it and shook his head: "No, these are the kind of products that can't be bought, so they're deliberately misleading people into not paying attention, to reduce their competitiveness..."

She paused and then explained, "I've encountered quite a few haters, but we basically only sell our own products, so our reputation is guaranteed." "Moreover, because there's always been supply falling short of demand, even if some fans are affected and leave, the overall spending power hasn't changed."

So, initially, some haters from other companies or individuals came to cause trouble, which cost them a lot of money, but unfortunately, Qiaoqiao didn't read the comments, so it didn't affect him at all.

Furthermore, the fans in the live stream only care about watching the drama unfold, and the more negative reviews they write, the more those who pretend to give negative reviews will follow suit and join in the commotion.

After all that fuss, it was like crying wolf, and nobody believed it anymore.

As Song Tan said, if people actually believed it, about 70-80% of the more than one million followers would be willing to buy. Even if they unfollowed, it would be insignificant compared to the daily increase in followers.

The leader fell silent, suddenly realizing that only young people could truly understand.

Lu Chuan, however, upon hearing about live-streaming e-commerce, asked:
"If we're selling agricultural products via livestream, do we need to travel all the way to Baiyu County to ensure quality control and timely delivery?"

"Should we bring Yanran and the others? Do we need to bring any equipment?"

If he wanted to bring them along, his car was big enough—but he wouldn't be able to accompany Qin Yun and the others.

They've been here for almost half a month, and they'll be going back in a day or two.

However, Qin Yun and his group didn't care at all!

"This is a public service initiative, a livestream to help farmers! We can't afford to delay something this important!"

"Exactly! What kind of relationship do we have? I can come and go as I please, and you don't need to see me off. You've been here so long, and you've been the one keeping me company... No need to see me off, really no need!"

Men who followed the trend of filming videos of "stealing oranges (peaches) in Jeju Island" were criticized for their poor skills, but now they're just randomly munching on peaches and joining in the fun.

Upon hearing Lu Chuan's explanation, they quickly tried to persuade him:

"Besides, we're driving straight back. Even if you stay here to see us off, are you going to drive us around like a prostitute?"

Anyway!

Qin Yun even enthusiastically said, "If you can't bring all the equipment, our car is big enough to take you to Baiyu County by taking a slightly longer route."

This sounds really meaningful. If they weren't so busy and didn't want to bother others, they really wanted to stay and help out.

Song Tan quickly explained, "It's not purely for charity; Qiao Qiao needs to get paid."

Qin Yun, who frequently watches Qiao Qiao's live streams, surely knows this, right?

"With Qiaoqiao's abilities, whatever she promotes becomes a bestseller. It would be abnormal if she didn't charge money."

"Last year, the kudzu root powder from that old man in your village, this year, the earthworm castings sold in your village... weren't they all sold out in an instant?"

"Qiaoqiao's reputation has been built up little by little, and he deserves to charge fees."

"Moreover, if you really open up Qiaoqiao's live-streaming slots, within three days, the slots for several hours of live-streaming can be filled at high prices—those who really want to make money will definitely use this channel."

He often watches live streams and is quite familiar with these tactics. Now, this is a way of subtly praising his abilities in front of the leader. Song Tan thought to himself:

They shouldn't boast, but since the other party is praising them so enthusiastically, they should at least ask her mother to prepare more local specialties in advance when they're ready to sell them.

And now...

Song Tan glanced at the time: "It's almost ten o'clock, and the sun is getting stronger. Why don't we go home and discuss this properly?"

Asking Qiaoqiao to promote the products was a one-sided idea from the leadership. How to actually open up sales channels still needs to be discussed with the local authorities.

Then there's how the promotion fees are collected, how the quality is screened, and how the delivery and after-sales service are guaranteed...

These seemingly trivial matters all require careful consideration, one step at a time. (End of Chapter)
