Chapter 612 Attending the King's Auction

  The results of the selection examination were ranked on the big list, and together with the admission list, they were posted on the wall next to the gate of the field department.

   Just like the big list at the entrance of the high school, they are all written on red paper, which is very festive.

  All the children and parents who took the exam went to the department entrance to watch the rankings.

   "Son, is that your name? Oh, my son passed the exam."

  Some parents were very happy when they saw their children's names.

   "That is my daughter, my daughter is ranked second."

   "My son is the first, son, you are the first, and you are also recorded."

  In the crowd, people kept cheering.

  Although this is not as good as the high school entrance examination, it is still an excellent way out.

   Being able to go out to study in college, and after graduation, you can have a job and a solid job. I don’t know how many people are jealous.

  The admitted families were overjoyed. They hurried to the trade union to get the notice, and happily packed their children's things for school.

  Those who were not admitted have nothing to say.

   Those who participated in the labor union have been notified a long time ago, and have also sent relevant materials for learning.

  My child just doesn’t have that ability, and the test scores are not good. What can I do?

  If you can’t go to school, you can only work honestly at home.

  The pharmaceutical factory has already started construction. Will we not be able to recruit workers then? The child is too young to be a formal worker, so he can always go in and become an apprentice, right?

   No matter how bad it is, I can still take over from Lao Tzu in the future, so there is a way out.

  The selection process was fair and just. The factory manager's niece did not pass the exam, and there was no special quota.

  So everyone was very convinced, and no one had anything else to say.

  The pharmaceutical factory is under construction in an orderly manner, and fifty directional training places have also been selected, and they can go to study after a while.

   After the busy period in autumn, the pharmaceutical factory also began to recruit workers and send people to training.

  In the pharmaceutical factory, it should be said that everything went smoothly, and Xu Shiyan didn't need to worry too much.

   As for the ginseng festival, it is also in the final stage of preparation.

   This year's Ginseng Festival is scheduled from September 1st to September 5th, which is earlier than last year.

   On August 29th, Xu Shiyan took people around the county.

  All venues, museums, exhibition halls and other places of the ginseng festival should be checked one by one.

  Every procedure is checked, and after confirmation, the museum is closed and no one is allowed to enter.

  On August 30th, representatives and farmers from all over the country who came to participate in the agricultural products exchange meeting also arrived in the county.

   There is a special arrangement for the reception to ensure the board and lodging of the participants.

  On August 31st, all the performances that participated in the festival will be rehearsed.

  Xu Shiyan led people to recheck all the processes, and must ensure that every link can not go wrong.

  On September 1st, the entire city of Er County was decorated with lanterns and festoons, and the sound of gongs and drums.

  Colorful flags and ribbons were planted on both sides of the main street of the county seat, and people from various units formed a Yangko team, performing Yangko happily.

  Yangko performances in previous years were all dressed up as Zhu Bajie, Monkey King, Seven Fairies and other characters.

  It’s different this year. Children wear bellybands and braids on their heads, pretending to be ginseng dolls.

  Young women in red coats and green trousers, dressed as stick girls.

  Some old men with white beards, holding Suobao sticks, pretending to be veterans.

  Joyful teams, cheerful dances, joyful singing, made the festive activities full of vibrancy.

  Integrates the folk customs of the hometown of ginseng, and shows the simple and hardworking spirit of the people of ginseng.

  At ten o'clock in the morning, the celebration of Ginseng Festival officially began.

  According to the usual practice, the relevant leaders of the county still spoke to announce the opening of the second ginseng festival.

   Then, various celebrations began.

  This year's Ginseng Festival, Xu Shiyan put forward the idea of ​​taking the ginseng festival as an opportunity to vigorously promote economic development.

   Centered on economy and trade, cultural and tourism activities are coordinated.

   During the Ginseng Festival, cultural activities such as concerts, dances, bonfire parties, Yangko performances, art photography, calligraphy exhibitions, and lantern shows will be held.

  At the same time, tourism activities on three routes including the Changbai Mountain Road, the Songhua River Road and the Ginseng Road were carried out.

  Especially the unique Changbai Mountain Weighing Festival, which is very attractive.

  The ginseng king selection and auction activities after the weighing festival also pushed the ginseng festival activities to a new height.

   Not to mention, there are really many people who came to the mountains and encountered big goods, and brought wild ginseng to participate in the selection.

   There are also participating farmers. In order to participate in the election, they specially picked up the best sticks and picked the big ones to bring.

  Su Anying and the others didn't fall behind either, and each played their best sticks.

  Choose a dozen or so big trees, wrap them in moss, put them in a box and bring them to the selection.

  In the end, the mountain ginseng king was won by several people from Beigang.

  The mountain ginseng they brought, which weighs four or two or six dollars, is beautiful in five shapes, a rare encounter, and was successfully auctioned off by a businessman in Hong Kong at a price of 128,000 yuan.

  Other wild ginsengs were also auctioned off. The expensive ones were 70,000 to 80,000 yuan, and the cheap ones were several thousand yuan. The prices were several times higher than those purchased in the county.

  Even if the auction takes 10% of the fee, the income is much higher than usual.

   Su Anying brought a ginseng tree weighing six and a half, and was named the king of garden ginseng.

   This ginseng was auctioned for a high price of 2,000 yuan.

  Other half-jin ginseng can be sold for about 1,000 yuan.

  The price is much higher than selling to southern customers after making wine, let alone participating in the market, it is simply incomparable.

  Su Anying brought these ten ginseng trees and sold them for more than 10,000 yuan.

  There were many reporters at the scene, and they hurried forward to take pictures.

  The people in Beigang rejected the reporter's invitation to take pictures of them.

   This is also normal, after all, several people got hundreds of thousands. If the photos are published in the newspaper, they will not have to stop in the future. I don’t know how many people will miss it.

  Su Anying was not afraid, and happily joined the buyer, holding the box, taking photos, and exchanging business cards.

  The other party was a Hong Kong businessman. Seeing that Su Anying was the manager of the company, she was very happy and said that they could cooperate if they had the opportunity in the future.

  And other ginseng farmers also brought some ginseng that was half a catty or more than four taels, and the price was several times higher than the usual selling price.

  Participants were very happy, and many people asked the staff if there will be an auction next year?

  If it is held next year, they will still come.

  How do the staff know if there will be an auction next year? I can only tell them to remember to pay attention to the news when the time comes.

   If there was one, it would definitely be on the news.

  In this auction alone, the turnover exceeded one million yuan.

   "Secretary Li, did you see it? This is just a small auction, and the turnover is so much.

  Tomorrow's ginseng and native products trade fair will open. Xu Shiyan said that it is conservatively estimated that the turnover can reach hundreds of millions.

   If it really can break through 100 million, we will make money this time around the Ginseng Festival. "

  Chang Hongfa and Li Jingyu also came to see the auction. Hearing the turnover reported by the staff, Chang Hongfa was so happy that he didn't know what to do.

  In contrast, Li Jingyu was much calmer.

   "Well, Comrade Xiao Xu is still very capable, but well, the young man is still too proud.

  What is the total output of ginseng in our county? Want to break 100 million at the fair? Is this estimate too high?

  I think we should treat it with a normal mind, don't have too high expectations, and don't put too much pressure on Comrade Xu. "
