Chapter 1176 The Goji Berries Are Ripe

"Thank you." Shen Xuening changed the subject. "Mr. Ning, what brings you here all of a sudden? Is there something you need?"

"I'd like to collaborate with you," Ning Yunxiang said with a hint of helplessness. Recently, his wine sales had been declining, and he had been thinking of many solutions. Finally, he thought of Shen Xuening, so he came here.

"Why don't we come in and talk?" Shen Xuening suggested in a friendly manner.

Ning Yunxiang did not refuse: "Thank you for your help."

Shen Xuening led Ning Yunxiang to the winery and into a conference room: "Please sit down. Wait a moment, I'll go get you a drink."

Ning Yunxiang called out to Shen Xuening, "Wait, is it Wuye tea?"

Shen Xuening replied, "Yes."

Ning Yunxiang said with satisfaction, "Alright then."

Shen Xuening quickly went to the tea room and brought back two bottles of Wuye tea, handing one to Ning Yunxiang: "Mr. Ning, do you like my Wuye tea?"

Ning Yunxiang replied truthfully, "I love it. Ever since I started drinking your Wuye tea, I haven't stopped. I have several cases stocked up at home."

Shen Xuening was somewhat surprised: "Do we need to stock up?"

Ning Yunxiang said with slight excitement, "Of course! It's hard to buy online, and it's often out of stock. You don't even know how to expand production. People like us who can't live without it sometimes really wish we could call you and ask you to produce more."

Shen Xuening smiled: "Is this a subtle reminder?"

Ning Yunxiang then said, "Then we'll see if President Shen is willing to listen."

Shen Xuening shrugged: "It's not that we don't want to expand production, but we can't afford to do so right now. If we want to expand, we'll have to wait until a year later."

Ning Yunxiang was puzzled. Why would someone pass up the opportunity to make money? "Why?"

Shen Xuening said, "Next, I will focus on producing skincare products."

Ning Yunxiang became interested. Skincare products have become incredibly popular in recent years, and almost every woman uses them. It's also a highly profitable industry, and he even considered entering it: "Speaking of skincare products, are there any for men?"

Shen Xuening looked at Ning Yunxiang: "Both men and women can use it, the effects are the same, what's wrong, do you want to use it?"

Ning Yunxiang said confidently, "Men should also love themselves."

Shen Xuening smiled and nodded: "Haha, that's true." She changed the subject, "Right now, we only have toner and lotion for skincare, and they're all trial sizes. If you want some, I can get you some in a bit."

Ning Yunxiang knew that Shen Xuening's things were good, so he didn't refuse: "I won't be polite, let me try them."

Shen Xuening sent Cao Wenyu a WeChat message, asking her to prepare two sets of skincare product samples for Ning Yunxiang, and then continued talking to Ning Yunxiang: "Mr. Ning, let's get back to the main topic. You came to me for cooperation, how do you want to cooperate?"

Ning Yunxiang became serious: "I want to buy some Du Qinghua porcelain."

Shen Xuening asked, "Are you buying Du Qinghua to brew wine?"

"I used it to make liquor." Ning Yunxiang thought for a moment and then simply told Shen Xuening, "When I came to your place before, I found a Du Qinghua flower on the road. I took that Du Qinghua flower back and soaked it in liquor. After drinking the liquor, it became very delicious."

Shen Xuening exclaimed in surprise, "Is that so?"

Ning Yunxiang said frankly, "It was about a month ago. After I tasted that wine, I had the idea of ​​buying Du Qinghua from you, but something came up and I only came over today."

Shen Xuening thought for a moment and said, "I won't sell Du Qinghua because Du Qing wine needs to maintain its uniqueness."

Ning Yunxiang couldn't help but feel disappointed: "I won't use it to brew wine, I just use it to make infused liquor, the taste is completely different."

Shen Xuening said kindly, "But if we cooperate with you, your wine can be labeled as Du Qinghua something wine, and then people will think that our two wines are related, which will affect my wine."

“Actually, I think you don’t have to follow my example. You can buy other medicinal herbs to make wine. That way, you can maintain your uniqueness and it won’t conflict with my recipe.”

Ning Yunxiang knew that Shen Xuening was unlikely to sell Du Qinghua, and now that he had heard the exact word, he still couldn't help but feel disappointed: "Then what medicinal herbs should I buy?"

Shen Xuening thought for a moment and said, "Gastrodia elata, you can buy Gastrodia elata. Gastrodia elata is good for your health. I also sell it here. You can try it."

“Gastrodia elata is fine.” Ning Yunxiang’s eyes lit up. “It’s good for your health and goes well with alcohol.” He then changed the subject, “But you can’t sell your Gastrodia elata anytime soon. When can we cooperate?”

Shen Xuening said, "The best time to harvest Gastrodia elata is from November to December. I can sell it to you in November. This year, the planting area of ​​Gastrodia elata has been expanded, so I can sell you more."

Some villagers also planted it, and this year's yield has increased at least three or four times, and the quality is almost the same as what she grows herself.

Shen Xuening would occasionally inspect the vegetables and medicinal herbs planted by the villagers to ensure their quality.

Ning Yunxiang pondered, "Do you have any stock from last year? I'd like to buy some and take a look."

Shen Xuening said, "Yes, I can sell you fifty catties."

Ning Yunxiang thought about it carefully again. Since there was no better way, he decided to try using Gastrodia elata: "Then sell me fifty catties of it."

"Let's go, I'll go to your house to get it for you." Shen Xuening took Ning Yunxiang home and weighed out fifty catties of Gastrodia elata for him.

Ning Yunxiang put the gastrodia elata in the trunk, then said to Shen Xuening, "President Shen, would you do me the honor of having dinner together?"

Shen Xuening declined: "No need for that. I still have to go to the winery to take care of some things. You go and eat by yourself."

"Then I'll bother you again next time, Mr. Shen." Ning Yunxiang didn't linger any longer and drove away.

Shen Xuening returned to the winery and went to the room where Grandpa Wei and the others were: "Grandpa Wei, Grandpa Lin, Uncle, what do you think of the wine?"

Grandpa Wei said frankly, "It tastes good, even better than before, but we can't add any more Du Qinghua, otherwise the floral aroma will overpower the wine's aroma and steal the show."

Shen Xuening said, "That's what the brewing master told me too, and I've remembered it."

Grandpa Lin said, "I think your wine will taste even better if it's left to sit for a while, allowing the floral aroma to settle and blend better with the wine's fragrance, thus enhancing the aftertaste."

Shen Xuening said, "I will keep some in the cellar, and the rest need to be delivered, otherwise I will have to pay a penalty for breach of contract."

At this moment, my uncle said, "Those aged wines can be sold for a higher price."

Shen Xuening smiled and said, "I understand, Uncle."

The group talked for an hour or two, then Shen Xuening saw them off at the winery, giving each of them two bottles as a gift. Afterwards, she returned to the winery to taste the wines again with the professionals…

Shen Xuening hired a professional wine taster, and she also needed to listen to professional opinions to ensure Du Qinghua's good reputation.

They talked for quite a while, from morning until they got off work in the afternoon. Shen Xuening treated them to lunch, and after lunch they continued to talk, discussing the finished wine clearly until everything was agreed upon before it could be bottled.

The next day, the newly brewed Duqing wine was successfully bottled...

The day after installation, deliveries began to the locations agreed upon by the partners.

……

After receiving the goods, Zhang Qianwen immediately called Shen Xuening: "Xuening, the Duqing wine has finally arrived. You know, so many people have been asking me when the Duqing wine will be delivered. We've finally waited for it."

Shen Xuening smiled and said, "I know. That's why I brought it to you as soon as the Du Qing wine was bottled."

Zhang Qianwen said, "I still need to send some over to my grandpa and dad. They've been urging me for a long time. I was worried about what to send my grandpa for his birthday, and you've solved my urgent problem."

Shen Xuening said, "You should have told me sooner, then I would have sent you some aged wine. Aged wine tastes better than new wine."

Zhang Qianwen laughed and said, "It's not too late to send it now."

Shen Xuening was generous: "Then I'll have someone bring you a box."

Zhang Qianwen said happily, "Okay, you're such a good sister. Wait here, I'll bring you a business deal."

Shen Xuening asked, "What kind of business?"

Zhang Qianwen said, "A friend of mine bought a villa and now needs flowers, plants and trees to decorate it. So, I recommended your plants to her, and she was very satisfied. She said she'll come over tomorrow to take a look, and if they're the same as what I described, she'll buy the plants from you."

Shen Xuening said, "Okay, do you need me to receive her?"

Zhang Qianwen said decisively, "No need, you go about your business. She will contact you when she makes a decision."

Shen Xue Ning said: "Okay."

This time, a large quantity of Duqing wine was brewed. In addition to supplying our partners, we also sold a lot online. Our online store has many loyal fans who placed orders without hesitation when they saw the Duqing wine was available. As a result, business on the internet has been exceptionally good.

Zhang Xiaomei called the HR department and asked them to arrange ten part-time workers for her, otherwise she wouldn't be able to pack the orders.

The HR department immediately took action, and Zhang Xiaomei was assigned a part-time job in the afternoon, which resolved the matter smoothly.

After learning about this, Shen Xuening went to the sales department herself. The spacious factory was full of people and goods, and the couriers were busy one after another.

The number of packages she handles could support a packaging factory.

When Zhang Xiaomei saw Shen Xuening, she immediately stopped what she was doing and came over: "Sister Xuening, you're here."

Shen Xuening nodded to her: "It must have been very tiring, right?"

"It's not hard work." Zhang Xiaomei smiled and shook her head. "Sister Xuening, there's milk tea over there, would you like some?"

"I'm not drinking anymore, you can drink." Shen Xuening looked around. "With so many people, can you manage them all? Do you need an assistant?"

Zhang Xiaomei shook her head: "Sister Xuening, I don't need an assistant. I can handle it. You can trust me."

Shen Xuening smiled and said, "It's not that I don't believe you, it's that I care about you. You're my right-hand woman, and I'm just worried that you'll overwork yourself."

Zhang Xiaomei then relaxed: "I'll let you know if I get too busy."

Shen Xue Ning said: "Okay."

……

As Shen Xuening left the sales department, she ran into Guo Zhi: "Guo Zhi, where are you going?"

Guo Zhi looked very well dressed up, and after hearing Shen Xuening's words, she was embarrassed: "Sister Xuening, I, I..."

Shen Xuening thought that Guo Zhi wasn't a shy person, so her bashfulness meant she must have gone on a date: "Are you going to see Xi Danping?"

Guo Zhi nodded: "Yes."

Shen Xuening asked in surprise, "You two are together?"

Guo Zhi shook her head: "We're not officially together yet. He hasn't confessed. We can only say that we have feelings for each other and go out together."

Shen Xuening said in a congratulatory tone, "Don't rush things in matters of the heart. Take it one step at a time, and it will have a good ending."

Guo Zhi is not a child anymore; she understands these things: "I know, so I always take our meetings very seriously. I hope I can have good luck this time too."

Shen Xuening told her firmly, "It definitely will."

Guo Zhi was even happier: "Sister Xue Ning, I'm going to find him now. We have to meet in fifteen minutes."

“Go ahead,” Shen Xuening said, stepping aside.

Guo Zhi walked past Shen Xuening, and then, as if she had thought of something, turned around and hugged Shen Xuening: "Sister Xuening, thank you. Xi Danping is a good person, and I will try my best to cherish him."

Shen Xuening reciprocated: "Then I will definitely try my best to bring you two together."

Guo Zhi smiled happily: "Okay."

……

In early July, the goji berries, like sparkling agate, adorn the branches like stars. A gentle breeze carries their delicate fragrance, captivating all who behold them.

The goji berries are ripe and ready to be harvested.

Shen Xuening and a group of workers arrived at the foot of the mountain, each carrying a basket, and began harvesting.

Shen Wenxu and the other kids, who were on summer vacation, also came along. They helped with the harvest and earned some pocket money. They were all very enthusiastic.

"Wenxu, I need a plastic bag." Shen Bo reached out to Shen Wenxu, who immediately gave him one. "Pick as many as you can, this is how you'll make your summer allowance."

"I know." Shen Bo raised his chin, looking quite motivated.

Shen Yingying also came here. She took charge of this task, weighing and arranging deliveries. Shen Xuening intended to train her, but of course, the training couldn't be too intense right away. These small tasks were just right for now, and she could progress step by step.

After explaining the situation, Shen Xuening didn't say anything more. She then picked up a basket to pick goji berries, specifically the larger ones, to send to the Qin family later.

Shen Wenxu caught up: "Sister."

Shen Xuening turned to look at Shen Wenxu: "Why did you follow me here?"

Shen Wenxu said, "I'll pick them with you. It's no fun for you to pick them all by yourself. I can talk to you while I'm by your side."

Shen Xuening smiled and said, "Okay, you can stay with me."

The two went to the other side where there weren't many people, and then picked the biggest ones from the branches. Shen Xuening said to Shen Wenxu, "Wenxu, pick the biggest ones, and we'll send them to Grandpa Qin later."

Shen Wenxu nodded, "I understand." After a while, he asked, "Sister, are you going to the Qin family's place?"

Shen Xuening asked, "Why aren't we going for now?"

Shen Wenxu then asked, "Are you just sending them goji berries? Will you send them by courier?"

Shen Xuening said, "We won't use express delivery. We'll use our own trucks. If we use express delivery, I don't know how many of these fresh fruits will be damaged."

Shen Wenxu echoed, "That's true. The delivery services these days are too rough. A lot of the things I bought are damaged; they were smashed to pieces."

Shen Xuening suddenly smiled: "What did you buy again? Mom said you've become addicted to online shopping, and you have to pick up your packages every day?"
