Happy Little Mayor - Chapter 1261
It may be because of the novelty that the newly opened farmer’s market is very lively.
When the business started, Wang Bo went to observe all the way and found that the stalls were roughly divided into three categories.
Most of them are fresh, self-produced agricultural products, and a variety of fresh vegetables and fruits, especially organic vegetables and fruits, are more common at stalls.
This is normal. Now consumers who buy agricultural products in New Zealand need to know not only the origin, but also the cultivation methods, whether they have used pesticides, harvest methods and dates, storage methods, etc.
Organic vegetables and organic fruits are more expensive, retail sales are more profitable, and more popular with consumers.
Followed by food, home-baked bread, farm-made cheese and condiments, beef and mutton and sausages just produced in the ranch, and private house jams and preserves, canned food, honey and other foods, a lot of them.
There are also handmade chocolates, fine wines, brewed beer, etc. There are also many stalls on sale. Wang Bo saw Aturu buying beer and pulled it back by pickup truck.
Relatively few are handicraft craft stalls. Wang Bo saw mainly hand-made packing, wooden furniture, sweaters and hats, hand-dyed fabrics, etc., others are rare.
At the end of the booth is an artist gathering place. Some painters and sculptors set up their stalls here. Various oil paintings, sketches and watercolors are sold here.
Serbian Big Handayan also came to the bazaar. He took his youngest son, Milolad, and hand-carved wood carvings and delicate small furniture were placed on the steel wire bed in front of him.
Wang Bo greeted him and said to the teenager, “Hey boy, how did your father catch you as a strong man? Tell him that it is illegal to hire child labor in New Zealand.”
Milolad smiled chuckled: “I’m here to help, not his workers, but he also has to pay me, I want to save money.”
“Why do you save money? Marry a daughter-in-law?”
Milorad shook his head and said, “No, I will go to the United States to go to high school in the future, and I will accumulate tuition.”
NBA is the temple of the world basketball. The United States has the best basketball education in the world. He chose to go to school in the United States. But tuition and living expenses are indeed very expensive. It is difficult for Dayan to earn so much money only by carpentry.
Wang Bo looked at the boy and looked around and said, “I haven’t seen you for a while. You seem to have grown taller?”
Milorad grinned, “Well, I’ve grown four centimeters taller, but I’ve become much stronger. Mayor, have you noticed that my muscles are better?”
Wang Bo nodded and said, “Yes, it’s really much stronger. To be honest, I even thought you were an adult man.”
“After coming to Sunset Town, my weight has increased by 15 kilograms, and my fat ratio has decreased a bit. Now I am invincible on the basketball court,” Milorad said.
Compared with his previous life, now it is in the sky. In the sunset town, he can eat good beef and mutton. Wang Bo arranged Kuncha to develop a special fitness course for him in the gym.
Therefore, it is normal for a teenager to grow muscles. He is indeed very talented in sports. Wang Bo hopes that he can take the path of professional basketball in the future.
Hearing that he chose to go to high school in the United States, Wang Bo took Dayan aside and asked, “If he goes to the United States, will your family have to accompany you? It will cost a lot of money.”
Dayan shook his head and said, “At that time, his mother will accompany him. It will be difficult for our family to afford this cost. However, with the farmers market, I want to improve the economic situation of our family.”
Wang Bo habitually wanted to pat his shoulders to encourage him, but the other side was too tall, so it was awkward to do so, and he could only retract his hands.
He said: “Relax, the town will provide financial support, you only need to accumulate living expenses, and the rest will be handed over to the town.”
Dayan hesitated and said, “Oh my God, really?”
Immediately he responded, and quickly added: “How can this be done? Mayor, this is not possible. Now he has eaten the meat in the town for free, and the town has helped us a lot.”
Wang Bo motioned for him to squat, and finally photographed Dayan’s shoulder, trying hard to say in a hearty tone: “Man, it is my duty as the mayor to care for the good development of each child.”
Dayan was so annoyed by him that he couldn’t be sure if he was joking or serious.
When Wang Bo left, he gave him a peace of mind: “I will ask Oakley to contact a famous basketball school in the United States. Then I will see how to send Milorad over. You can rest assured that there is a sunset. “
He made the commitment very seriously. The reason for this is to increase the sense of belonging of the townspeople and to invest. If Milorad can become an NBA star, the return to Sunset Town will be greater.
Oakley, Hill and the Sunset Band lead the way. Wang Bo is more and more willing to see scenes of stars in the town.
Like the farmer’s market in other parts of New Zealand, everything here is clearly marked. People choose items, pack them in environmentally-friendly paper bags, and then the stall owner weighs and collects the money.
There is an advantage to shopping here, because everyone values credibility and commitment, so you don’t need to worry about buying inferior and inferior products, and you don’t have to doubt the stall scales.
Compared to supermarket shopping, that is more transparent information, customers can ask for details of the goods.
In addition, there is a stall owner as a staff, which is also incomparable to supermarket shopping. Customers will tell their purpose before buying vegetables and fruits. They will be used for cooking or raw, and will be used for jam or salad. According to different uses, the stall owner will give Out buying advice.
Some time ago, the supermarket had a misunderstanding that daffodils were bought by customers as garlic dumplings, and this kind of thing would certainly not happen in agricultural and sideline supermarkets.
In this way, the vegetable and fruit regional business of the department store will inevitably be affected. Wang Bo does not care. If the farmers’ market can be successfully organized, it will help the town even more.
At present, the passenger flow and market size are still small, so it cannot be opened continuously. Wang Bo’s initial plan is to open the market every Monday and Friday, two days a week.
With the farmer’s market settled, he started to work with the town of Tahiti.
In late June, on a sunny day, he drove to Tahiti town with Uncle Bing, Hani, Charlie and others.
There is a kind of empty beauty in New Zealand in the autumn. The farms on both sides of the road have been harvested. The sky is blue and the air is spotless. Looking out from the window of the car, it is all plains.
After entering the section of Tahiti Town, Highway 8 became broken and broken. There was a lot of grit and dust on the road. In some places, like the dirt road, the car drove past and directly brought up a trail of smoke and dust.
