Chapter 432 Winter Moon 26
So, in the next few days, Wang Jianguo led everyone to devote themselves to the preparations for the opening of the supply and marketing cooperative.
They rushed around and purchased all kinds of supplies. Boxes of colorful fireworks were carefully brought back and piled up in the backyard of the supply and marketing cooperative.
These fireworks will burst into brilliant glory on the opening night, lighting up the entire village.
Bunches of red firecrackers are neatly stacked, ready to be lit at the opening moment. The crackling sound of firecrackers will surely add a strong atmosphere to this festive day.
At the same time, Wang Jianguo also specially invited several artists in the village who are good at playing wind instruments.
Every day they rehearsed cheerful music diligently in the front yard of the supply and marketing cooperative. The passionate melody seemed to be telling the future prosperity of the supply and marketing cooperative.
Wang Jianguo knew very well that if he wanted the supply and marketing cooperative to be prosperous when it opened, it was crucial to attract villagers to come and support it.
While he was thinking hard, an idea suddenly flashed in his mind, and he remembered the various marketing methods in later generations of giving eggs for free when buying goods.
Although in this era, eggs are still relatively rare and precious items and difficult to obtain, it is not realistic to directly copy the method of buying goods and giving away eggs.
But this did not pose a problem for the clever Wang Jianguo. He suddenly had an idea and quickly adjusted his strategy to give away goods when buying one.
He carefully selected some practical and popular daily necessities as gifts, such as laundry detergent that is used by every household.
Just sprinkle a small handful when washing clothes to produce rich foam, which has strong dirt removal ability and can make clothes clean as new.
There is also the soap that exudes a faint fragrance. It not only cleans the skin when washing hands and face, but also leaves a fresh and pleasant smell, which is loved by the villagers.
Although these gifts seem ordinary, they are quite attractive to the villagers who live a simple life and have relatively scarce supplies.
This news instantly caused a sensation among the villagers, and everyone felt that this was a rare benefit.
The villagers passed the news to each other, and before long, several surrounding villages knew about the opening of the supply and marketing cooperative and the attractive discounts.
Men, women, young and old were all counting the days with their fingers, looking forward to the opening of the supply and marketing cooperative. The whole village was immersed in an atmosphere of joy and expectation.
The days passed as if being gently manipulated by an invisible hand, and soon it was the twenty-sixth day of the winter month.
For Wang Jianguo, Zhao Shuzhuo and He Yushui, this day was like a shining star in the long dark night.
Because the supply and marketing cooperative that they have been looking forward to will finally unveil its mysterious veil and officially open today.
The night before, the three of them lay in their respective beds, and the bustling scene of the supply and marketing cooperative in the future involuntarily emerged in their minds.
The dazzling array of goods were neatly arranged on the shelves, and the villagers came in and out with satisfied smiles on their faces.
Such scenes flashed repeatedly like a kaleidoscope of light, making them as excited as if they were holding a lively little rabbit in their arms.
My heart is always restless, how can I sleep well?
So, before daybreak, when the eastern sky had just begun to show a hint of paleness, they all got up early at the same time, as if they had heard a silent horn.
He Yushui was the first to stand up. He walked gently to the door, reached out and slowly pushed open the old yet hopeful door.
In an instant, a cool and pure air blew towards him, and at the same time, a pure white, crystal clear world suddenly caught his eyes.
I saw heavy snow falling silently from the sky last night. The snowflakes fell softly like cotton wool, layer after layer.
It piled up densely, covering the houses, trees, roads and everything outside.
It seems as if nature has used its magical brush to outline a majestic ink painting, with everything covered in silver, which is beautiful beyond words.
Just as He Yushui was attracted by the beautiful scenery and stood at the door in a daze, Wang Jianguo and Zhao Shuzhuo happened to open their doors.
The three people's eyes met unexpectedly in the air. For a moment, they were all stunned. Then, smiles as bright as the warm spring sun bloomed on the three faces almost at the same time.
That smile showed surprise for the heavy snow, anticipation for the opening of the supply and marketing cooperative, and the deep friendship between the three of them and the tacit understanding to work together.
As if they were in sync, they said in unison:
"Auspicious snow heralds a good year."
The sound was particularly loud and clear in the quiet morning, carrying beautiful wishes and longings for the future, and echoed for a long time between this white world.
As soon as they finished speaking, the three of them couldn't hold back any longer and started to laugh softly.
Then the laughter grew louder and more hearty, and finally gathered into a burst of joyful laughter, flowing freely in this world of ice and snow.
This laughter seemed to have magical power, as if it could penetrate the cold, allowing warmth and hope to take root and thrive in this land.
It also seems to indicate that their supply and marketing cooperative will have smooth sailing and prosperous business under the reflection of this auspicious snow.
Bring more convenience and happiness to the people of this land and open a new chapter full of hope and light.
He Yushui tiptoed towards the kitchen, preparing to cook breakfast for everyone, and Wang Jianguo and Zhao Shuzhuo quickly followed and took the initiative to help her.
He Yushui stood in front of the stove, picked up the spatula skillfully, and began to stir-fry the vegetables in the pot. The fresh leaves exuded an enticing aroma wrapped in hot oil.
Wang Jianguo was helping to pass the seasonings carefully, and asked from time to time:
"Rainwater, should I add this much salt?"
Zhao Shuzhuo was busy washing dishes, and the sound of running water was intertwined with their conversation.
The three of them were talking and laughing. For a moment, the small kitchen was filled with laughter and a warm atmosphere permeated every corner.
They all knew that today was the day when the supply and marketing cooperative opened, and time was tight and the task was heavy.
I looked out the window and saw heavy snow falling. The sky and the earth were all white. It was impossible to ride a bicycle in such weather.
In this case, you have to set off earlier to ensure that you arrive at the supply and marketing cooperative on time to make preparations.
Thinking of this, the three of them quickened their actions, and after breakfast was ready, they hurriedly sat around the table and began to eat.
After a while, the three of them had eaten and drunk their fill and quickly cleared the dishes. They put on thick cotton-padded clothes, hats and scarves, wrapping themselves tightly to resist the severe cold outside.
