Brother Rui knew he would say this. If he hadn't relived his life, he might have thought the same thing as his grandfather. Some things can only be solved by daring to think.
"Grandpa, as long as we are willing to use our brains, anything can be sold for money these days. Think about it, the water in Longling is good. After drinking this water, you will feel better, and maybe you will be healthier and live longer. This kind of water, Why doesn¡¯t anyone buy it? Grandpa, what we sell is not water, what we sell is health.¡±
He worked tirelessly to instill concepts into his grandfather, and finally made Old Man Zhang think it made some sense.
"Well, you may be right, but"
Before Old Man Zhang could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Brother Rui: "Goodbye, Grandpa, Longling is a treasure, and the water inside is also a treasure, just waiting for us to discover it."
Old Man Zhang didn't change his mind and still shook his head and said: "That being said, if no one buys the water you produce, it is in vain. If you don't mention it from afar, you just say that our village is good. How can you say that our village is good?" Which household has no water to drink, who will buy your water?"
Brother Rui smiled confidently, "Grandpa, our target is not in the village, but those who value health and those who want convenience. For example, when we go out to play, it is difficult to have a drink outside. If we There is a bottle of water that you can just unscrew and drink, isn¡¯t that very convenient?¡±
He found that his grandfather was still hesitating, so he added: "Some of the tourists from outside often come to our village to get water, which means they have also discovered that the water here is indeed very good."
"That's right. Our village doesn't need it ourselves. The tourists do. At least we can sell it to them. Let me think about it. You can go and play first."
Old man Zhang was finally convinced by him and felt that this matter could be done. He then asked Expert Hao and discussed with his son, and finally decided to listen to Brother Rui and open the water plant.
To build a mineral water plant, the first thing to solve was the water source. Old Man Zhang hired Expert Hao and his students to go deep into Longling to investigate. Finally, they found the best water source, and he directly contracted it. Fortunately, they are all barren mountains and wastelands that others don't want, so they don't cost much money.
The bulk of the money is still spent on building factories. I really don¡¯t know if I don¡¯t do it. It turns out that opening a mineral water factory is quite demanding. Many machines and equipment have to be bought from abroad. It took a lot of effort for Mr. Zhang to open a mineral water factory. The machine issue is settled, and the mineral water plant can finally be opened.
The old Zhang family was very busy, and the villagers saw it.
This was the first time they heard that the water in the mountains could actually be sold for money. This was something the villagers had never dreamed of. They had lived here for generations. Whenever they thought of using water, they would go directly to the river or the well. There is so much water that I have never thought about buying that water.
¡°Many people in the village don¡¯t understand such a ridiculous thing, and many people are making sarcastic remarks.
For example, an old woman said: "The old Zhang family is so rich that they want to sell water. They think that by putting it in a bottle, the water will be valuable? Isn't it still water? I don't think anyone will Buy it, the person who bought it must have lost his mind."
Another man said: "No way, Aunt Bird, Uncle Shitou is such a shrewd person, would he be willing to do anything that doesn't make money? There must be something we don't understand, maybe that water is very valuable."
"You don't know if it's worth it?" The old woman named Aunt Bird looked at him with disdain. It wasn't until the other person lowered her head that she said triumphantly: "What could possibly happen? In the end, it's not just water. Put it in a bottle and sell it.¡±
After she laughed, she suddenly said mysteriously: "Let me tell you, it will cost a lot of money to build Lao Shitou's factory. Their family is planning to get a loan from the bank. If the water cannot be sold in the future, then Otherwise, the loss will go to grandma¡¯s house.¡±
There was a man who couldn't stand listening anymore and couldn't help but chimed in: "Why do you care so much about other people? Uncle Shitou has the ability. He can get a loan from the bank, and the bank is willing to lend to him. This is his ability." .¡±
"If his factory opens, he will definitely recruit workers in our village. My second son will graduate next year, and I am going to let him try in the factory."
"That's right," another villager also said: "It doesn't matter whether he can make money or not, it is in our village anyway. We only have advantages and no disadvantages. I also plan to let my girl go to his place to work, which is better than going outside." It¡¯s much better to work part-time.¡±
With so many factories opening in Taoyuan Village, people in their village are the first to benefit. It is said that those who are close to the water and buildings first get the moonlight. This is the case for them.
You can work right outside your home, and even several members of a family can work there. These daysThese workers are very popular, even in private factories. I don¡¯t know how many people envy them.
There are even not enough people in Taoyuan Village. Many people from nearby villages come to work. Many young people go to Taoyuan Village, which is also a matter of pride in their village.
When the factory was built, it was time to enter the second spring. The first bottle of water produced was given to Mengmeng by Brother Rui.
Mengmeng had never seen what mineral water looked like, so she stared at it curiously. The bottle outside was made of transparent plastic with circles of spiral patterns on it. It was not slippery to hold in the hand. There were paintings on the bottle. A silhouette of an old man wearing a straw hat, carrying two loads of water, is walking out of the depths of the mountains. The painting is blue and very refreshing.
The Zhang family¡¯s mineral water is named after Old Man Zhang. Lao Shitou mineral water means water flowing from the ancient Stone Mountain.
Mengmeng held the bottle of water and carefully tasted it under Brother Rui's expectant eyes. She grinned and said, "It's okay, it seems a bit sweet."
Brother Rui smiled. He remembered the famous advertisement. Isn¡¯t Nongfu Spring a little sweet? His water is even better than Nongfu Spring. It doesn¡¯t matter if it¡¯s sweet, it¡¯s the most basic thing.
Brother Rui also placed a newspaper in front of Mengmeng and said as if offering a treasure: "Let me show you my advertisement. Here, look here."
The newspaper used a huge space to advertise: "Old Stone Mineral Water, mineral water filtered through hundreds of millions of years of volcanic rocks. What are you waiting for? Come and buy it."
At the bottom are photos of bottles of mineral water, which look decent, at least in Mengmeng¡¯s eyes.
She stared at the newspaper and kept reading, trying hard to identify the words on it, and said with a smile: "That's great, will anyone buy it?"
"I don't know either," to her surprise, Brother Rui even spread his hands and said, "I've asked them to distribute the goods in the city. Whether they sell well or not depends on the market."
The old Zhang family attaches great importance to this mineral water, and the first batch of goods was delivered to a specialty store in the provincial capital. This specialty store is opened by a cooperative, and everyone in the city knows that it specializes in various specialties from Taoyuan Village, not only It is highly nutritious and tastes good. The quality is very good and the packaging is very exquisite. After all, it can only be said in one word: expensive.
Therefore, the specialty of this specialty store is that it is expensive, and it is famous in the provincial capital. But the amazing thing is that the people in the city just eat this. Now that their lives have improved, they are more pursuing some nutritious high-end food. , the local specialties of Taoyuan Village are specially prepared for them.
"Guests visited the specialty store today and saw the fresh mineral water in gift packaging, wrapped in a transparent plastic box with ribbons and bows on the outside, just like a treasure box.
Water can also be used as a gift. None of the guests have heard of it. Although they can try it, they feel that water is just water. Even if it tastes better, it is not worth spending money to buy.
The result is that more people look at it and less people buy it.
But there are also some people who are willing to spend money because they are attracted by the bundled benefits. If you buy a box of mineral water today, you will get a box of strawberries for free. The strawberries don't look like many, only about a pound. They are usually quite expensive, but now they are given away for free, which gives people the feeling of taking advantage. They have to pay for these strawberries.
The waiter in the specialty store tried so hard to sell the product that his mouth almost blistered, but he still managed to sell some without making any money.
Brother Rui is of course dissatisfied with such results. He was full of confidence, and it was really shocking to get such a result.
??When Lao Shitou mineral water is produced, no one in the village buys it, and they have water for themselves.
Tourists also buy very little. They never have to worry about drinking water when traveling in the village. Is coconut water not delicious? Or is watermelon not delicious? They don't have to spend money to buy water. Some smart tourists also know to bring a bucket and fetch water from the village to make tea without spending a dime.
It seems that no one buys this mineral water, whether in the village or in the city, and the advertisement is useless. Just when everyone wants to see a joke, the one who breaks the deadlock is It's a group of foreign tourists.
I don¡¯t know since when, foreigners have been coming to the village one after another. When they come here, they are not looking for anything else but Lao Shitou mineral water.
In various restaurants in the village, as well as specialty shops opened by the villagers themselves, and even Mrs. Feng¡¯s canteen, many foreigners have come to buy water these days.
Some foreigners can speak simple Chinese and sign very enthusiastically: "Stone water, we want stone water." They are talking about the mineral water of Lao Zhang's family.
The villagers sold the water, and the foreigners raised their necks and drank it all, as if they would not be happy if they didn't drink like this.
At this time, the people in the village were puzzled: "Is it so delicious? We drink this water every day and don't think there's anything wrong with it. These foreigners are really exaggerating. Have they never seen water?"
Who has never seen such a thing as water? They don¡¯t think it is strange, but foreigners are very rare. More amazing things are yet to come. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com)Home mineral water.
