No matter how luxurious a wedding is, the day will pass in the blink of an eye. After seeing off the guests, peace returned to the community. The newlyweds Miles and Sasha also happily went on their honeymoon. Ju An's house returned to its old self, with children and animals making noisy noises all day long. Yes, Ju'an also lives a leisurely life every day.
The biological company bought a special pasture. The day after Norman signed the contract, he arranged for the cowboys to start moving their large beef cattle to the biological company's breeding pasture. Thomas and Lawrence, two old men, I happily arranged for the cowboys to start grazing the white cattle on the pasture where the big beef cattle had been.
As for Ju An's promise that Alexander would go to Hans Ranch to catch king snakes, the old man got Ju An's approval and arrived at Hans Ranch early in the morning, taking five or six people with him to carry out a large-scale exploration of the ranch and nearby mountains and forests. During the search, Rand was also very attentive and directly arranged for two cowboys to follow their two teams. Snakes over two meters tall were not allowed to be taken away. This had been going on for almost a week.
Ju An was lying on the rocking chair on the porch when he received a call from Rand: "Ann! Alexander has chosen three king snakes. I'll give you a call."
"I know, just make your choice. You don't need to send the cowboys to follow. Take care of the cows quickly. Let them take the snake and leave quickly," Ju An said with a smile on the phone.
Rand smiled at Ju An and explained: "Alexander, a cunning old man, chose three female snakes that are less than half an inch less than two meters. It is really difficult for these people. They have been here for so many days. Choose snake."
Ju An listened. He was stunned for a moment and then laughed. The old American is really cunning. My buddy said it couldn't be more than two meters, so I chose three 1.99 meter ones. This old guy was cruel enough: "As long as he doesn't bother us anymore, it's okay. I know this. Now all the cows in the pasture are producing milk, right?" ".
"Well, except for the batch I just bought, all the ones I bought before have produced milk, and the sales are so good. Seeing the big cans of milk powder produced and then sent out to the factory, Birman is excited every day With a smile on his face, I will go to the food factory soon, and the money Birman owes to the ranch should be paid today," Rand said on the other end.
Ju An rocked the rocking chair and rocked back and forth comfortably, laughing and jokingly said: "So you are going to collect the debt. That's fine. You can continue to collect the debt and ask Birman to settle it as soon as possible." Otherwise, we stop their milk supply, that¡¯s fine. If nothing happens, I¡¯ll hang up.¡± Hearing goodbye on the other end of the phone, Ju An hung up the phone. Put the phone on the small round table next to him.
Lying on the rocking chair, Ju An felt that the craftsmanship of the old craftsmen in China was really not worth mentioning. Liu Chao didn't know where he got a batch of old handmade bamboo chairs, and he directly bought one for each of Wang Fan Ju'an's houses. You can smell the fresh fragrance of bamboo when you lie on the chair, especially when you put it under the corridor, and the dappled warm sunlight falls through the corridor. Put a pot of tea on the small bamboo coffee table next to it. This little day was extremely exciting, but unfortunately, Wang Fan was not lucky enough to enjoy it. After Miles got married, he was already busy with his own business.
He picked up the small teapot and turned sideways to pour some water. He found that the inside of the small teapot was already dry, so he put the teapot on the coffee table, patted the lid, and rocked the rocking chair at the scholar Ju An who was sitting next to him like a dog. Wu Song and Kandi said, "Go to the house and fill up the teapot."
Comrade Wu Song was as hardworking as ever, and after squeaking twice, he jumped down from the rocking chair, picked up the teapot and put it directly into his wife's arms for Kandi to hold. He casually took it from the fruit plate on the coffee table. Three apples were stuffed into Kandi's mouth, one was put into his mouth, and the rest was caught in his little black hand, and he led his wife towards the house with the same figure steps learned from Ju An. Walk inside.
He let out a long sigh of relief. With his eyes half closed, Ju An reached out and grabbed Teddy's furry back on the other side of the rocking chair. He grabbed a few handfuls of Teddy's silky brown long hair and hummed in his mouth. The little song naturally changed to beat time. Teddy also half-closed his eyes like Ju An. It is the hottest time of the day. The weather in August is 27 or 8 degrees, and the sunshine is so bright. After a while, coupled with Ju An's gentle patting, Teddy, who had lost his concentration a little, began to snore. Fortunately, he was lying on his stomach now, instead of holding his head and rolling his body. His snoring was not too loud, at least Ju An could bear it.
Waiting for Wu Song and Kandi to pour the tea, Ju An touched it and found that the temperature of the tea was too high, so he thought of letting the tea dry for a while, and continued to squint his eyes, and slowly fell asleep while squinting. In the past, with my head held high, I went on a date with Duke Zhou's daughter at noon.
??While sleeping in a daze, I felt itchy. I immediately stretched my legs and kicked it, and then I felt itchy.I felt that I was stepping on something wet, and I woke up immediately. When I opened my eyes, I saw that the bodies of Clockwork and Spring seemed to have shrunk greatly. The hair was wet and stuck to the skin, especially Clockwork, which was so powerful on the neck. Their manes were all lying down, and at a glance it was clear that these two things had just climbed up from the swimming pool: "If you want to lie down, then lie down, if you don't want to lie down, get out, why bother adding to my feet if you have nothing to do."
Clockwork and Spring heard Ju An's scolding and lay down at Ju An's feet. Then they licked their fur and started washing their faces like kittens. These two things lay down. , and lay directly on the curved pole of the rocking chair. The rocking chair immediately turned into a motionless chair. Ju An stretched out his legs and kicked his feet. The two things ignored them at all. Thinking they were playing with him, he stuck out his tongue and started again. He was about to add his own legs. After doing it a few times, Ju An gave up and said to himself secretly: Forget it, don't shake it if you don't want it to shake. I can make do with it now.
He picked up the teapot sideways, opened his mouth and took a gentle sip on the spout. Well, the temperature was just right. This sip filled his mouth with the aroma of tea. After taking two sips, Ju An poured in more than half of the small pot of water. in stomach.
After changing positions, Ju An was about to continue meeting the daughter of Duke Zhou's family. As soon as he got into the most comfortable position, he heard the cell phone ringing on the coffee table. He stretched out his hand, and Wu Song handed the phone to Ju An, and even Wu Song. He also helped Ju An get through, and he buzzed the phone twice.
"This is An, who are you?" Ju An didn't even look at the screen and put the phone directly to his ear.
Berman¡¯s voice came from the mobile phone: ¡°Ann, I¡¯m Berman!¡±.
"Where did you settle the bill at Rand?" Ju An continued to speak with his eyes closed as he listened to Berman's voice.
Berman hummed: "I just left. He came here to deliver the milk that was just delivered today. The account was already crossed in the morning. In addition, I want to reduce the amount of milk powder currently supplied to domestic supermarkets by at least half, if possible." I want to take them all off the shelves."
"Sales are not good?" Ju An asked Berman after hearing this.
Berman explained on the phone: "It's not just bad. The more than 10,000 cans of milk powder on the market haven't been digested yet. I received the data from the supermarket in the morning, and only 400 cans have been sold so far." Multiple cans, four hundred and three cans to be exact.¡±
Ju An immediately opened his eyes after hearing this: "Only more than four hundred cans? Did you read that correctly?" It¡¯s been such a long time, but only four cans of white powder are sold. It¡¯s probably not even enough to pay for the supermarket space, so don¡¯t be embarrassed to mention making money. I knew that milk powder sales would be low here in the United States, but I didn¡¯t expect it to be this low. What a situation.
Birman explained to Ju An: "There is little awareness of our brand in the domestic market. Many people who like to feed milk powder already have fixed brands, and we have no advertising investment."
"Don't explain, I understand the situation." Ju An said to Birman and sighed. This is the first time that Ju An encountered a failure in a market. This result is really dismal. After three months of sales, More than 400 cans of milk powder, what an extraordinary achievement. The U.S. market and the domestic market are simply like heaven and earth. On one side is a paradise where demand exceeds supply, and on the other side is a hell of extreme bleakness.
After thinking for a moment, he said to Berman: "Then just withdraw." If you want to increase the sales of milk powder, you have to invest in big advertising here in the United States. You can¡¯t supply it in the domestic market now. How can you dream of the American market? If you have it, it can¡¯t be milk powder. My friend¡¯s food company has grown so much that it is no longer available. Milk, cheese, etc. are the main force of consumption.
After hearing what Ju An said, Berman said: "I also think it is time for us to withdraw from the domestic milk powder market and concentrate on the Chinese market." With the result of selling 400 cans in three months, Berman can slap him in the face with this result.
"That's it, you talk to the supermarket, and then make a call to several shareholders of Mike to ask for their opinions. My opinion is that all our products will be removed from the shelves," Ju An said into the phone.
"Okay, I'll call Mike and the others right away. That's all the company has to deal with. Ann, is there anything else you want to know?" Berman asked on the other end.
"I don't have anything else to ask. You take charge of the little things yourself. Except for the quality, you can make your own decision," Ju An said into the phone. Then he said goodbye to Berman and then hung up the phone.
The sales volume of 403 cans in almost three months made Ju An feel sleepy. He was full of energy. After sitting for a while with his eyes wide open, he became a little bored. He sat up from the bamboo chair, pushed Chongwen's body hard, took out the slippers from under him and put them on his feet, and turned around I walked to the swimming pool, jumped directly into the water, and swam back and forth for a few laps.The water is just warmed by the sun.
When we sat down at the dining table to eat together in the evening, Ju An told his family about the sale of milk powder as if it were a joke, which actually added a lot of fun to the dining table.
