Chapter 1509: Song Song Youde

~8 min read 1,481 words

Song Song Youde is now willing to sell goods to Boss Chang!

This young and promising boss is generous and prompt with money, and even teaches them how to raise prices in return. We don't know if he makes a profit or how he earns his money, but regardless, he made quite a lot last year.

Take these small pillows, for example; he ordered some last year at a price of 999.

999!

Song Song Youde couldn't imagine such a price even if he ate plain rice for a lifetime! The pillows aren't inlaid with gold, so why sell them for 999?

But Boss Chang pulled out his phone, searched, and showed him a long list of four-digit pillows with high sales volumes: "This is where you don't understand. In the village, it's pitch black by eight or nine in the evening, and everyone is basically in bed. The cotton quilts are heavy, so it's easy to fall asleep."

"The city is different."

"At night, there are colorful neon lights, and you can't sleep if the curtains don't block the light. The soundproofing in the apartment buildings isn't good either; an alarm clock upstairs can shake the two floors below."

"Once you're in the city, you have to worry about rent, utilities, and work. Young people today are under a lot of pressure—you only need to ask online to know how many people have poor sleep."

Those who have trouble falling asleep, those who can't get back to sleep after waking up, those who have recurring dreams, those with insomnia...

In short, the world has suffered from a lack of good sleep for a long time!

Otherwise, why do mattresses now cost five or six figures, and why are there side-sleeping pillows and sleep-aid pillows? It's truly because the people have a need!

So he made the decision again: "As for the goods, I'll buy them at 999 each. If you have extra time to sell them elsewhere, make sure you don't set the price too low."

Song Song Youde thought about it; Boss Chang was talking about three to five thousand pillows. Based on last year's trend, it would probably reach 5,000 in the end.

5,000? How much money is that?

The little old man did the math in his head, and he was so happy he could faint.

Just as he was about to say that this one deal would be enough for this year, he saw Song Qiao Song Qiao running over happily, shouting at the top of his lungs: "Grandpa! Sister said that the cogon grass is hers this year, and you are hired by her to do the work!"

Song Song Youde:...

To be honest, he felt a bit uneasy thinking about millions of dollars, but now that Tan Tan said she was in charge and he wouldn't earn much, he actually felt settled.

Although, he felt a little bit disappointed too...

But no matter what he thought, Boss Chang had already promptly promised Song Qiao Song Qiao: "I definitely know. I just came over to give a few reminders. Do it with care, and just place the order with your sister when the time comes."

Song Qiao Song Qiao giggled.

He is a big kid now and knows what can be said and what cannot. What his sister said in the courtyard just now definitely cannot let Grandpa know!

However, Big Sister makes a good point!

"If Grandpa has millions in his hands, he'll be willing to give one or two million to his eldest son. Once that family sees he has money, wouldn't they immediately stick to him?"

"I won't let that happen."

At first, it was said that Grandpa would be responsible for the cogon grass. That was before they met Boss Chang and knew the price would soar so high. As a petty person, Song Tan naturally went back on her word.

Otherwise, the land is hers, she arranged for the cogon grass to be planted, and the order is her channel. In the end, if the old man loves his son and secretly gives the money to Song Song Dafang's family...

Just say if that's infuriating or not!

Song Qiao Song Qiao thought, he wouldn't allow that either.

Besides, it's not good for Aunt Zhang Hong to suddenly have money, and it's not good for Grandpa to suddenly have too much money. His sister said it's better to only let him earn one or two hundred thousand a year.

If they want to give this money to that stinky uncle, then let them.

But if Grandpa doesn't love his father, and doesn't care about his sister, then he—he will also care about Grandpa and Grandma a little less than before!

Hmph!

Song Qiao Song Qiao is very ambitious now.

Song Song Youde hadn't thought that far yet. He only knew that based on last year's commission, he could earn more this year than last year, and that was enough!

For a farmer, to be able to make a fortune in old age, how wonderful!

See if he doesn't outshine the old lady!

So he was happy too.

The Song family has income, and the villagers' income is not low either. Therefore, when the village committee said there was a meeting that night, everyone went promptly without a single complaint.

They only realized after they got there that it was another big event!

First, Zhang Hong's family started selling tofu. They had already each carried tofu home for lunch at noon, and they were very impressed by the couple's initiative.

Although they could certainly earn a lot at home, considering they had to pay the village every month and had to work from dawn to dusk, with a business tying them down, it wouldn't be easy to do odd jobs at the Song family anymore...

In short, everyone joked about them "acting fast," whether sincerely or not, and didn't say anything else.

They would just grow vegetables well, and maybe they would earn more than selling tofu in the future!

No one is jealous of anyone.

Only Zhou Zhou Maozhu and his wife, who ate at the canteen at noon, felt strange looking at the glowing Zhang Hong family.

It was clearly them who thought of it first.

But... who can they blame?

At the same age, the couple didn't have children to help them, yet they did it without a word. They even paid tuition to learn the technique immediately!

And what about them? Zhou Zhou Maozhu clearly knew how to do it, but he had to call his son first to ask if he was willing to come back, hesitating, and finally giving up...

No one can be blamed for this.

It's just that now, seeing the other party promising to treat everyone to soy milk in the future, it felt strange in their hearts.

And just at this moment, Secretary Zhu announced another thing—

"Our village has never had any entertainment activities. Many young people can't stay in their hometowns, and some children come back and gather to play cards, play games... This isn't a good thing in the long run."

"So the Song family specifically said they want to create a good environment. The atmosphere in our village needs to be healthy—they are willing to pay to build an activity center for the village."

"A big stage, table tennis, basketball, soccer... all sports equipment will be arranged."

"Among them, that big stage can be used for the village's weddings and funerals if there isn't enough space, as long as a small management fee is paid to the village."

"This management fee isn't much; it's just to hire people to clean up and maintain hygiene. It's mainly for everyone's convenience."

Once this was said, the people below started discussing.

Don't say, they aren't interested in basketball or soccer, but that big stage is really good!

After all, there are many slopes in the village, and many families' doorways are either high or low, and some are connected to the road. If they hold weddings or funerals, the banquet tables in the courtyard can't even be laid out, which is quite annoying, and in the end, they have to be invited to a restaurant.

How expensive that is!

If they invite a chef locally, provide their own wine and food, and pay a processing fee of 30-100 per table, it's affordable, decent, and delicious! They just lacked such a place!

And that wedding thing, doing it in a rural courtyard always seems a bit tacky, and many young people aren't happy about it. Going to a hotel is even more expensive.

Having such a proper venue and a big stage is really a very, very affordable project!

The Song family, they are truly worthy of being from our village! How much village spirit they have! ===== CHAPTER 1510 =====
