Chapter 800: Sales Team

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation   Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Chief Su understood that farming was essential to the villagers. Even if a village chief had selfish motives, they would not drag their villagers down.

Everyone knew a chief was a person of prestige within a village. Without that, the villagers would not listen to them. Perhaps the villagers would even want a new chief.

Nonetheless, the surrounding village chiefs wanted their villagers to have what Su Teng Village had. It would be a good harvest if they could get good seeds. The Su Teng villagers had extraordinary lives, and Chief Su felt proud.

None of the chiefs wanted their villagers to starve or freeze to death. If that happened, they would be too ashamed to face their villagers.

The other village chiefs sighed in relief when they heard Chief Su l s words. They all expressed their sincere gratitude.

“Thank you, Chief Su.”

“l thank you on my villagers’ behalf.”

“You’re a good person, Chief Su. I admire no one else but you. Your village had prospered under your excellent governance. I didn’t expect your villagers to be so willing to help mine.”

They knew Chief Su had no selfish motives and genuinely wanted to help them. The other village chiefs might be unable to do such things. Hence, they felt ashamed of their inferiority.

However, they felt touched when they saw Chief Su l s caring expression. They wanted to learn from him to be better chiefs and to help their villagers truly.

“You don’t have to thank me.” Chief Su smiled. “I know you’re all doing this for your villagers’ sake. You should thank Binglan and not me. She’s a kind-hearted child.

“She has this many potatoes and sweet potatoes, so bring a few of your villagers to collect them. Distribute these to your villagers as soon as you return.

“As for how to plant them, Binglan has already taught my villagers. You can send a few of your villagers here to learn together. Then, they can return to their villages to spread the knowledge.”

Someone happily said, “You’ve helped us a bunch, Chief Su.”

The chiefs did not expect him even to teach them how to plant the potatoes.

Moreover, he did not raise the prices of the potatoes and sweet potatoes. Typically, they would be pretty expensive, not to mention how beneficial potatoes were.

The chiefs even heard that they could yield several thousand pounds of potatoes in just an acre. It was exciting news to the villagers. The chiefs exchanged a few pleasantries before returning to their villagers to call for assistance.

Soon after, people from the surrounding villages arrived in Su Teng Village. Each chief brought a muscular villager, who drove the village’s oxcart to load the potatoes and sweet potatoes.

Su Binglan had brought a sufficient number of potatoes from her family’s warehouse to the courtyard. She said, “These are all I have, Granduncle Su. Each bag has fifty pounds and shouldn’t be any more or less. You should weigh them first, though.”

One of the villagers outside the Su family’s house said, “Don’t worry, Miss Su.

We trust you wholeheartedly.”

If Su Binglan were unwilling to give them so many potatoes, she would raise the price. Still, everyone knew she was not stingy. The villagers would feel ashamed if they doubted her.

Su Binglan nodded. “All right then. Granduncle Su, you can get someone to divide the potatoes for them.”

“Will do!” Chief Su enjoyed doing these things.

Su Binglan then left Chief Su to handle the rest. However, Su Fengmao came out to help while Shen Qiuhua was at the paper mill.

Meanwhile, Su Binglan left because she had to handle the rental and sales of her new shops and houses. After writing the contract, she would print it out. Of course, she also had to hire people to promote her new properties.

She needed to train sales advisors, so she planned to put them through strict training. After all, the sales advisors would need to answer any questions a potential tenant might have about the shops or houses.

Su Binglan then summoned Su Chun and put him in charge of these matters. After some time, she hired a group of eloquent people. She put some of them in charge of selling the houses. The others were in charge of selling or renting out the shops.

Su Chun barely needed to coax these people into working for Su Binglan. They immediately agreed when they heard her name. When they arrived, she told them what they would need to do.

Although these people were naturally talkative, they were reserved when facing Su Binglan. She looked at everyone and said, “I’ve taken a fancy to your talents, so I want you all to be part of my sales team.”

Everyone was stunned when they heard that, wondering what kind of talent they had.

Su Binglan lowered her head and said, “You must be confident. I know you’re good at communicating with others. That is your talent.”

Everyone looked at Su Binglan in puzzlement and noticed her thoughtful expression. They wondered if she genuinely acknowledged their abilities.

Su Binglan said, “Some of you will help sell and rent out the new houses. I know you’re honest and won’t deliberately raise prices for self-benefit. That means you won’t forsake righteousness for-profit and scam others.

“That’s why I chose you all. You know my rules, correct? I will never hire those who are selfish.’

Everyone knew about the Su family’s tofu factory. Although many came to apply, some did not get the job because of their questionable characteristics. The others did not get the job because they were not loyal to their families.

Su Binglan was stringent when hiring workers. She would teach her workers everything she knew if they were of good character and willing to work hard.

The newcomers did not expect Su Binglan to hire them readily. After all, they knew she paid her workers exceptionally well. Still, they were delighted that she recognized their talents.

It felt good that Su Binglan recognized them. It gave these people a little more confidence in themselves.

“We’ll do whatever you want, Miss Su.”

“We’ll work hard for you.”

Su Binglan said smilingly, “As you can see, I have many shops and residential houses in this area. I need you all to help me sell or rent them out to the people.

“Don’t worry. You won’t need to handle the promotions. Instead, you’ll only need to answer all of the potential tenants’ questions and explain the house or shops’ specifics..”
