Chapter 407: Opening up a new path for development

While all work in Cuigu Village is progressing steadily, Wang Dashan is not satisfied with the existing achievements.

He knows very well that in this era of fierce competition, only by continuous exploration and innovation can the village always stay at the forefront of development.

One day, when Wang Dashan was reading the newspaper, a piece of news about rural e-commerce training caught his attention.

He realized that this might be an important opportunity for Cui Gu Village to further expand its market.

"Xiu Lan, look at this."

Wang Dashan handed the newspaper to his wife and said excitedly, "The county is going to hold a rural e-commerce training course. I think our village should send someone to participate."

Xiulan took the newspaper, looked at it, and said worriedly, "E-commerce? I don't understand this thing, how can it work?"

"You can learn if you don't understand."

Wang Dashan said, "Now that the Internet is so developed, e-commerce is definitely the development trend of the future. If our village's agricultural products and tourist souvenirs can be sold through e-commerce, the market will be huge."

"Who are you going to send, then?"

Xiulan asked.

"I want Xiao Li to go. He is young, has a sharp mind, and is quick to accept new things."

Wang Dashan said, "Besides, he was also involved in the online store business before, so he has a certain foundation."

The next day, Wang Dashan called Xiao Li to the village committee.

"Xiao Li, the county is going to hold a rural e-commerce training course. I want you to participate. Are you willing?"

Wang Dashan asked.

"Really? Secretary Wang."

Xiao Li said excitedly, "Of course I am willing! This is a rare learning opportunity."

"Okay, that's settled."

Wang Dashan said, "This training is very important. You must study hard and master the knowledge and skills of e-commerce. After you come back, you must teach other people in the village."

"Don't worry, Secretary Wang, I will definitely live up to your expectations."

Xiao Li said firmly.

During the time that Xiao Li was attending training, Wang Dashan was not idle.

He began to plan the construction of a cultural square in the village.

He knew that as the village developed, the villagers' demand for spiritual and cultural life was increasing.

Wang Dashan gathered some skilled craftsmen in the village to discuss the design plan for the cultural square.

"Everyone, please share your thoughts."

Wang Dashan asked, "How should we build this cultural square so that it is both practical and beautiful?"

“I think there should be a stage in the middle of the square.”

Uncle Zhao said, "In the future, the village can hold cultural performances and show movies here."

"That's a good idea."

Teacher Liu went on to say, "Plant some flowers, trees and some fitness equipment around, so that the villagers can have a place to relax and have fun."

Everyone expressed their opinions and suggestions. Wang Dashan listened carefully and raised some questions and ideas from time to time.

After some discussion, the design plan for the cultural square was finally determined.

Then there is the issue of construction.

Wang Dashan personally led the villagers to level the land and transport materials.

Although we encountered some difficulties during the construction process, we overcame them one by one through everyone's joint efforts.

At the same time, Wang Dashan also actively contacted the agricultural department and invited experts to the village to provide technical guidance.

He knew that the quality of agricultural products was the foundation of the village's development, and only by continuously improving the quality of agricultural products could he gain a foothold in the market.

After arriving in the village, the experts conducted a comprehensive investigation of orchards, farmlands, chicken farms and other places, and proposed specific improvement measures for existing problems.

Wang Dashan organized the villagers to study hard and carry out production according to the guidance of experts.

In the midst of busyness, Xiao Li finished his e-commerce training and returned to the village.

"Secretary Wang, I'm back!"

Xiao Li excitedly ran to the village committee and reported the training situation to Wang Dashan.

"How's it going, Xiao Li? Did you learn a lot?"

Wang Dashan asked with a smile.

"Yes, Secretary Wang."

Xiao Li said, "I gained a lot from this training. I not only learned the basic knowledge of e-commerce, but also mastered some operational skills. For example, how to increase the popularity of the store, how to provide customer service, etc."

"That's good."

Wang Dashan said, "First, organize your study materials, and then find time to talk to other people in the village so that everyone can understand e-commerce."

"Okay, Secretary Wang."

Xiao Li said, "I also brought back some information, please take a look."

As he spoke, Xiao Li handed a stack of information to Wang Dashan.

Wang Dashan took the information and read it carefully.

“This information is very useful.”

Wang Dashan said, "Our village's e-commerce business depends on you. If you have any ideas or suggestions in the future, please feel free to tell me."

"Don't worry, Secretary Wang."

Xiao Li said, "I will definitely work hard to make the village's e-commerce business a success."

Under the organization of Xiao Li, the village held an e-commerce knowledge training class.

Villagers signed up one after another, and everyone was full of curiosity and expectations about this new thing called e-commerce.

Xiao Li was earnestly explaining the knowledge and operational skills of e-commerce on the stage, and the villagers were listening attentively below, asking questions from time to time.

Wang Dashan also sat in the audience and studied with everyone.

"Xiao Li, how do we promote this online store?"

a villager asked.

“There are many ways to promote it.”

Xiao Li said, "For example, you can use social media to promote your store, or you can participate in some e-commerce platform activities. In addition, you can also improve your store's search ranking by optimizing the store's keywords and improving the quality of product images."

"Oh, I see."

The villagers suddenly realized.

After several days of training, the villagers have a preliminary understanding of e-commerce.

Although many people still don’t quite understand, everyone is full of confidence and willing to learn and practice with Xiao Li.

While the construction of the cultural square, e-commerce training and other work were progressing smoothly, Wang Dashan did not forget to cooperate with those companies.

He communicates with partner companies regularly to understand market demand and ensure product supply and quality.

One day, Wang Dashan received a call from a cooperative enterprise. The other party expressed that they were very satisfied with Cui Gu Village’s agricultural products, but hoped to add some new varieties.

"Secretary Wang, we have recently received feedback from some customers who hope to buy the specialty vegetables from your village."

The head of the business said, “I wonder if you can meet this demand?”

"No problem, we can try."

Wang Dashan said, "However, growing specialty vegetables requires certain skills and experience, so we have to do some preparatory work first."

After hanging up the phone, Wang Dashan immediately convened a meeting of village cadres and growers to discuss the issue of growing specialty vegetables.

"What do you think?"

Wang Dashan said, "Growing specialty vegetables can not only meet the needs of cooperative enterprises, but also enrich the variety of agricultural products in our village and increase the income of villagers."

"I think I can try it."

One grower said, “But we don’t know much about the growing techniques for specialty vegetables, so we need experts to guide us.”

"That's no problem, I'll make the call."

Wang Dashan said, "In addition, we also need to consider market demand and sales channels. We can't plant blindly, we have to make sure the vegetables we grow can be sold."

After some discussion, everyone unanimously decided to try growing specialty vegetables.

Wang Dashan began to contact agricultural experts and invited them to the village to provide technical guidance.

At the same time, he also organized villagers to conduct market research to understand the market demand and price trends of specialty vegetables.
