It even includes employees’ families.

And this, does this even make sense? The name of the live stream even says it’s selling farm machinery.

The staff don’t get it; they’re thoroughly shocked:

Is this why major influencers are invited everywhere nowadays?

It’s uncertain how many people will become fans of their official account after this stream!

But on second thought, the group’s operational need is to expand its reputation, but it doesn’t solely pursue this. After all, there is a bit of a business gap between physical and online economies.

Besides, buying fruits and peaches online is normal, but purchasing an excavator online, probably few would do that, right?

The customer images don’t match.

After carefully observing Qiaoqiao and secretly researching some info, the staff member understood.

He managed to come along as the higher-ups gave him significant permissions. He is similar in size and part of the management; seizing the opportunity, he said:

"Thank you, Classmate Yang, for supporting our work. How about this: our farm has its own light processing workshop. If today’s viewership can remain above 100,000, I’ll personally decide to give away 100 cotton blankets in the stream."

"The cotton used is just what everyone sees before them. After machine harvesting, manual labor is still needed to handpick the leftover cotton bolls. Our cotton field area is large, with high yield; manually harvesting 100 five-kilogram cotton blankets won’t be an issue."

Yang Zhengxi turned to look at him, then reflected slightly:

"If you’re going to say it like that, indeed, I don’t have enough experience yet..."

He hadn’t thought of the cotton blanket raffle.

"Otherwise, you could apply to your superiors again, see if the raffle can give away 1000 blankets?"

Here at Qiaoqiao, it’s tens of thousands of viewers at a time; giving away 100 blankets makes their big enterprise seem small-minded.

If you’re going to give, then give generously!

Besides, any marketing expense casually reaches six figures nowadays. But a thousand blankets, no matter how you calculate it, it’s just a small cost?

Huh?

Now it was the staff’s turn to be stunned.

blankets versus 1000 blankets, the marketing cost is completely different! It’s indeed beyond my approval scope, but...

He hesitated for a moment, but Yang Zhengxi did not give him a chance to refuse, just pointed at the phone:

"The anchor hasn’t said a single word yet, and the viewer count has surpassed fifteen thousand."

Wow!

The power of a big influencer is terrifying.

The staff immediately nodded seriously: "I’ll ask right away!"

Meanwhile, Qiaoqiao had already changed gear, put on gloves, and tied a cloth bag to her waist.

"Hey, kids, I’m going to pick cotton now! Can you pick cotton?"

"I saw in the training video that the shell of the cotton boll is particularly hard and can prick your hands!"

You usually need to wear gloves.

There are two kinds of cotton picking: one is when the cotton leaves are still green, then you can directly pull out the entire cotton bloom by its five-lobed tail.

This is usually due to timing and hurried harvesting; the cotton picked is less mature, the long staple is scarce, the fibers are thin and easy to break, and the purchase price is low.

The other kind is the one Qiaoqiao faces.

When cotton normally fluffs, the branches are dry, the cotton boll bursts open, and you can gently pick out a whole bunch.

Of course, now it’s a whole bunch, snow-white, soft, and clean.

Later, when picking those missed by machines, you’ll know what impurities look like. The cotton balls will have many leftover bits of the previous harvest.

Qiaoqiao, while swiftly working, felt this was quite like tea-picking and enthusiastically said:

"I heard it’s hard to find work nowadays, right? Everyone can come to pick cotton! Two yuan per kilogram, meals and accommodation included! The training materials say you can pick 60-80 kilograms in a day!"

They are amazing!

"It seems in Borderlands it’s more expensive, about two yuan per kilogram there! But it’s so far away, it seems even tougher..."

And in the live-stream chat, the comments were once again densely rolling through.

[Okay okay okay, the anchor is directly hiring, right]

[Sorry, I’d be willing to earn two or three hundred a day, but I can’t handle the hardships of farm work]

[So relieving! This job seems so relieving]

[Cotton doesn’t weigh much; only two yuan per kilogram?! How exhausting does it have to be to earn 300 yuan]

[Such huge cotton fields, as far as the eye can see, this time the host is a big family]

[Landlord sir, we’re in the landlord sir’s field!]

[Look at the title, okay? It’s selling farm machinery]

[What farm machinery can be sold for picking cotton? Isn’t it those little cotton-picking tools or chestnut collecting gadgets?]

[Teacher Qiaoqiao, take my advice. Next time, don’t accept anything just because it’s aiding agriculture. If you’re selling cotton, I might support a few kilos, but what will I do with cotton-picking tools?]
