Mother Li and Mr. Li carried the things from the tricycle.
Zhou Fangfang looked at the sealed snakeskin bag. She couldn’t see anything.
Zhou Fangfang smiled and said, “Auntie, I’m not CEO Gu. I’m an employee, Zhou Fangfang. You can just call me Little Zhou.”
She glanced at the snake skin bag and said with a smile, “We can help you sell things here. But what’s in your bag? Can 1 take a look?”
When Mother Li heard that it was not Gu Qingming herself, her attitude was not so friendly, but she would not offend someone for no reason.
She smiled and said, “It’s nothing. It’s just taros and ginger planted at home. I heard that in your village, someone sold taros online for a few thousand dollars. There’s also someone who sold ginger for a few hundred dollars and sweet potatoes for a few hundred dollars. I also have these things at home. Rather than letting them rot at home, I might as well sell them.”
Zhou Fangfang nodded and said, “Yes, Auntie. Please open the bag and let me take a look. Before we sell things, we need to take photos and upload them to the Internet shop to introduce the items.”
…..
When Mother Li and Mr. Li heard this, they asked awkwardly, “Aren’t we going to sell it online? Wh do we still have to take photos?”
They knew very well whether their own things were good or bad.
They thought that selling it online was like blindly selling it in the dark.
Now, Zhou Fangfang actually wanted to open the bag to take a look and take a photo…
They had also heard from their daughter that when Gu Qingming sold things online, she had to confirm that they were good-looking and of good quality. Then, she would take photos and upload them online. This way, she could sell them.
When Zhou Fangfang heard this, she had some guesses in her heart, but she still smiled and said, “Uncle, Auntie, selling things online is not like going to the market where customers can see and touch the items. We sell things based on our conscience and integrity. We have to ensure that the things we sell are still the same as in the photos. If the customer buys something different from what we introduce, they won’t buy it a second time. This is a matter that will ruin the reputation of the shop.”
When Mr. and Mrs. Li heard this, they looked at each other.
Mrs. Li then opened a snake skin bag and said to Zhou Fangfang, “Miss, let me tell you, although my family’s food doesn’t look good, it’s definitely delicious.”
The bag Mrs. Li opened contained ginger.
Compared to the taros and sweet potatoes, the ginger looked better.
Zhou Fangfang had grown up in the countryside and had helped her parents with their work. Of course, she could tell if something planted in the countryside was good or bad.
Besides, she had seen a lot of things at work recently. She could tell at a glance if something was good or not.
Seeing that the ginger in the bag was shriveled and small, she felt this situation was really a little bad.
Mrs. Li said, “Miss, let me tell you. My ginger is spicy enough. If you dry it in the sun, it will definitely be better than others.”
Zhou Fangfang nodded calmly and said with a smile, “Auntie, you’re right. However, Auntie, why don’t you bring your ginger back to dry it?”
When Mrs. Li heard this, her expression immediately changed. She shouted guiltily, “Miss, what do you mean by that? I didn’t want to dry the ginger, so I shipped it over to you to sell. Do you want me to transport it back now?”
Zhou Fangfang had heard the introduction of these two people before. They were probably related to the Shi family.
However, there were really many people who had relatives with the Shi family. When others came to sell things, they would first ask the Shi family before letting her take photos and post them on the website to sell.
This was the first time she had met someone like them who went past the Shi family’s relatives and came up to them to make a fuss.
This person said that they were the parents of CEO Gu’s sixth cousin-in-law. Speaking of which, this kind of relationship was quite close.
However, private matters were private matters, and public affairs were public matters.
Zhou Fangfang continued to smile and said, “Auntie, I don’t mean anything. It’s just that your ginger doesn’t meet the requirements for my shop to be put up for sale.”
“So, you mean you don’t want to sell my family’s things?” Mother Li said angrily.
“Auntie, don’t be angry. Why don’t you open the other bags and let me take a look? If I can sell them, I’ll try my best to put your things on the Internet to sell, okay?” Zhou Fangfang said very politely.
“No, promise to help us sell it first, and we ll open it for you to see,” Mother Li said a little rudely. “If 1 open it, you can find a reason to reject my items. If you don’t want to sell my family’s things, who can I find to reason with?”
When Zhou Fangfang heard this, she didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “Auntie, let me tell you again. When we sell things, we only look at the quality. If the quality is good, we’ll sell it. Besides, if your things are good, why should I be picky and unwilling to sell them for you?”
Zhou Fangfang had already guessed that the other two items were not good either, so the two of them wanted to pester her to agree to sell them first.
However, this was impossible.
Mrs. Li could not take it anymore.
She said loudly, “Call your boss out. We’re relatives of the Shi family, the parents of your boss’s sixth cousin-in-law. We came to her house to sell things for her sake. She can’t be so petty and unwilling to help her relatives sell things.”
This time, Zhou Fangfang really couldn’t hold it in anymore.
She said with a serious expression, “Uncle, Auntie, anything our shop sells must meet our requirements. Otherwise, it’s impossible for us to accept these things.”
Mrs. Li said angrily, “Hmph, you’re just an employee. What right do you have to stand up for your boss? I said to call your boss over, so call him over.”
In her heart, she thought that Gu Qingming, as a daughter who had married off to another family, definitely had to depend on the the Shi family ti live in this Stoneback Village.
She opened this online shop to curry favor with the Shi family and the people of Stoneback Village. As in-laws of the Shi family, she had to give them some face.
Zhou Fangfang shook her head and said, “I’m sorry, Uncle and Auntie. Our boss is very busy.”
She knew that CEO. Gu was someone who was busy. Since she had established a large company, she would definitely be busy with the company’s matters.
“I don’t care. I want to see your boss.” Mrs. Li started to make a scene. “I’m a relative of the Shi family. If she doesn’t accord me this bit of courtesy, how can she live here in the future?”
From the way she spoke, it was obvious that she looked down on Gu Qingming.
Zhou Fangfang’s expression turned ugly when she heard that.
In her heart, her CEO Gu was good at everything. She did not need to live her life according to anyone’s wishes.
The two of them were actually mocking CEO Gu.
She only chuckled in her heart.
Based on what they said, regardless of whether the item was good or not, it was impossible to sell it in the shop..
