89: Damn it!
A huge wave of "Want to see" scrolled across the screen.
"Want to see ♦1"
"Want to see ♦10"
... "Want to see ×9999"
... "Since everyone wants to see, I'll take you all into the orchard to have a look."
[Yay! The Princess is beautiful and kind-hearted, I love the Princess the most~~]
[Peace and blessings to the Princess~]
... The noon sun was blazing. Chen Su handed a straw hat to Li Chuxia.
Actually, Li Chuxia had brought her own sun hat, but she felt that wearing a straw hat during the livestream would make her seem more down-to-earth.
Not far from the backyard of Chen Su's house, there was a small patch of passion fruit.
Li Chuxia reached it after a short walk.
"Family, look, this is the golden passion fruit. Passion fruit grows on vines; there are no passion fruit trees."
[Holy crap, they're so big! I'm practically drooling through the screen~~]
... [In Shanghai, they're selling for 20 yuan per catty, and they're a third smaller than the ones in this orchard.]
"I'll try one for you to see if it's tasty."
Li Chuxia casually plucked one and handed her phone to Chen Su. With a firm squeeze, a crack appeared on the stem end of the passion fruit.
She pried it open along the crack, revealing the orange-yellow pulp. A rich fruity fragrance wafted out, and juice dripped from her fingers onto the ground.
She took a small taste.
"Mmm, super sweet."
Li Chuxia gave a thumbs up.
This variety of golden passion fruit is the Qinmi No. 9 golden passion fruit, and its sweetness is ten times that of ordinary passion fruit.
Coupled with the large temperature difference between day and night in the Xiulin Village area, the passion fruit grown here is even sweeter than those from outside... [My god, it looks so tempting. I could eat ten at once~]
[Princess, Princess, can you help us buy some~]
[I want to buy some too, I want to buy some too~]
... Before Li Chuxia even finished eating, the foodies in the livestream room started flooding the screen with comments asking to buy.
"Family, this year's golden passion fruit is relatively expensive; it's 18 yuan per catty."
[Princess, I want 10 catties~]
[I want 20 catties~]
... [For this quality, I want 100 catties~]
The livestream room was full of people who weren't short on cash, and they were all acting very extravagant.
"Family, I've asked for you. Each express package can only hold five catties. They're picked and sent fresh, and shipping is free for orders of five catties."
[Princess, just put up the link~ I want to eat it tomorrow.]
[To the person above, even if they pick it on the spot and fly it to you, it won't arrive by tomorrow.]
... "Wait a moment, let me figure out how to create the link. Just buy as much as you need; if you buy too much, it'll spoil easily."
It had been a little while since the last time she sold peaches, and Li Chuxia had forgotten how to make the link... [Princess, first you do this, then this, then that, and it'll be done~]
[Yes, yes, yes, click here, click there, and you're good. It's very simple~]
The fans in the livestream room actively guided her.
It felt like these buyers were more anxious than the seller.
"Mhm, it's ready."
Li Chuxia created a simple link.
For the link's image, she just used a photo of the orchard behind her.
The link was simple, but the fans were more than willing to pay... Before Li Chuxia started livestreaming to sell peaches.
She often posted a lot of food guides on her account, helping her fans avoid many pitfalls.
The food and scenery she recommended had been verified in person by many fans; she was authentic and reliable.
Over time, she built a reputation. Combined with the high-quality, affordable, and large peaches she sold recently, she had gained the trust of a large number of fans.
So, she didn't need to shout to get attention when she started a livestream. She only needed to briefly introduce the product, and the foodie fans would flock to it.
Produced by Chuxia, guaranteed to be high quality.
Li Chuxia herself wasn't short on money and didn't rely on this to make a living, so before any purchase, she would remind her fans to buy within their means and make choices based on their actual situation.
She was worlds apart from those livestreamers who sold fake wine and denied it, sold sweet potato noodles without any sweet potato, or complained that fans weren't working hard enough when they thought a 79-yuan eyebrow pencil was expensive.
For the golden passion fruit this time, Chen Su had prepared a total of 200,000 catties.
Packed in five-catty units, it required a total of 40,000 boxes.
This time, Li Chuxia didn't test in batches and put up all 40,000 orders at once... "Family, the first batch of fruit from the entire village has been picked. It's just about 200,000 catties, so I've put it all up for you at once."
[Sisters, hurry up and grab them! There are only 40,000 orders~]
The remaining stock on the link was rapidly decreasing.
39,999.
31,000... 25,654.
19,999... In less than half an hour, the 200,000 catties of golden passion fruit purchased by Chen Su were completely sold out.
This speed would make even the top-tier livestreamers in the country feel ashamed.
It's often not your competitors who defeat you.
But rather those you least expect.
Li Chuxia was also surprised to see it sell out so quickly. She said calmly, "Family, the golden passion fruit is still in the orchard. We're having the villagers pick and pack them now, so they won't be sent out until tomorrow or the day after."
[It's okay, it's okay, as long as they arrive.]
... [This is the first time I've bought fruit that's being picked fresh. Boohoo, I'm so touched.]
[Goddess, is it really all gone? Can you add more? I want to buy a few more boxes as gifts~]
[Yes, yes, yes. Can you ask the farmers to water them more so they grow more?]
... "There really isn't any more. If you want to buy, you'll have to wait for the next batch to ripen. I'll be heading back in a few days," Li Chuxia said helplessly.
[Waaaah, I thought there would be more, so I bought too few. Damn it~~]
... The temperature in the field was very high, and Li Chuxia's forehead was covered in sweat.
Chen Su was very observant. He took off the straw hat from his head and began fanning Li Chuxia.
"Family, it's too hot out here. I have to go back now, or I might get heatstroke."
... [Ah~ Sitting in my 16°C air conditioning, I actually forgot the Princess was out in the sun. I really deserve to die!!!]
[Oh, I forgot about that! Goddess, go back quickly! My heart is breaking for you!]
... Chen Su looked at the comments in the livestream room, which were all expressing concern for Li Chuxia.
He was a bit puzzled. "Why are Li Chuxia's fans so enthusiastic, caring, and polite?"
He tried opening his own short video account.
He clicked on a private message.
What met his eyes was!!!
"Old Thief Chen, you really f*cking deserve to die~~~"
Chen Su was speechless.
How could the treatment between people be so different?
??
He couldn't figure it out, he just couldn't figure it out... After returning home.
Li Chuxia went to the bathroom for a shower. As a pampered young lady from a wealthy family, it was really hard on her to go outdoors in the heat to livestream and sell goods.
Chen Su notified each of the villagers who had signed contracts that they could start picking... Half an hour later.
"Chuxia, I'm planning to head to the cardboard box factory in town to order a batch of boxes. Do you want to come along?"
There was a cardboard box factory in Qingshan Town, where Xiulin Village was located, so Chen Su didn't have to go to the city to find one.
As for the delivery, he could just collaborate with the express delivery points in town.
Although Qingshan Town was relatively remote, regular express delivery services could reach it.
Li Chuxia nodded and said, "I want to go too."
... As soon as she sat in the passenger seat of Chen Su's mercedes-benz car, she frowned.
"The smell of your new car is a bit unpleasant."
"Wait for me a moment~"
She opened the car door and walked toward her red Audi Q7...
