Returning to hometown to farm: The apocalypse system arrived ten years earlier?

Chapter 43 Winter Bamboo Shoots Live Broadcast
The bearded man said, "It's okay. I'm fine anyway. Just wait here." If he was really anxious, he would call Li Xiang to urge him.

But in the end, Li Xiang’s grandmother still entrusted the aunt to call Li Xiang and tell him about this matter.

"Okay, I'll be back soon!" Li Xiang hung up the phone, tidied himself up a little, and walked home carrying a basket of winter bamboo shoots.

"Oh, Brother Li Xiang, nice to meet you!" When Li Xiang returned home, before he had time to put down the bamboo basket, the bearded man came up to greet him warmly.

"Mr. He, right? Hello!" Li Xiang was about to reach out his hand, but retracted it. The main reason was that he had just come back from work and his hands were covered in mud. So he smiled and said, "Wait for me to wash my face."

He Zhixiang quickly stopped him and said, "Let's take a photo first."

"what?"

He Zhixiang immediately stood beside him, waved at the driver, and shouted, "Hurry up, take a photo for me and Brother Xiang."

Seeing that Li Xiang and the elderly people present were slightly surprised, He Zhixiang quickly explained: "I am also a fan of Brother Li Xiang. This visit is also to chase stars. I met my idol offline. He just came back from work, and he is more handsome than after washing!"

Li Xiang: "..."

The elders: “…”

What kind of taste is this?
After taking one photo, He Zhixiang asked Li Xiang to unload the bamboo basket full of winter bamboo shoots and put it in front of the two of them. For another photo, he picked up Li Xiang's hoe and posed.

He Zhixiang looked at the photos and was very satisfied. He said, "When you post a video of digging winter bamboo shoots, I will use these two photos and leave a message in the comment section. I guarantee that those guys will be envious to death, haha!"

"Thank you, thank you." Li Xiang was still very touched. This would help increase his popularity.

In fact, He Zhixiang did come here to chase stars, and he also wanted to come and "investigate" Li Xiang's true situation and whether it was a real shoot, because many Internet celebrities are deceitful and even rent houses in the countryside.

Such internet celebrities are prone to collapse and run away. Because fake things cannot last and cannot stand the test. If even the scenes are fake, can the things they sell be trusted?

Are there really sweet potatoes in sweet potato vermicelli?
And his casual chat with Li Xiang's grandmother and a few other elderly people just now was not without purpose, but he was asking questions indirectly and gained a lot of information. It can be basically confirmed that Li Xiang is a genuine farmer, without any packaging or hype.

In fact, there is no team behind it.

He couldn't help but sigh that if Li Xiang had a team behind him, responsible for various things, such as traffic generation and publicity, just based on Li Xiang's high-quality short videos and short dramas, it would be impossible for the number of fans to be just over 100,000. Perhaps it would have reached 700,000 or 800,000, or even exceeded one million.

In other words, from his perspective as a successful businessman, Li Xiang is currently "underestimated". 8000 yuan per advertisement is definitely not a loss.

Because Li Xiang will not delete his videos, and he will become a big V with millions or tens of millions of followers in the future, this 8000 yuan advertisement will still be under his account and embedded in his short videos. Isn't he making money?
Thinking of this, He Zhixiang was secretly proud. He even had an idea to form a team and cooperate with Li Xiang, but he didn't know whether Li Xiang was willing.

After Li Xiang came back after washing and changing his clothes, He Zhixiang told him about this. Unfortunately, Li Xiang politely declined.

"Sorry, I actually like to do things alone." Mainly, Li Xiang wanted to quietly enjoy the rare few years of tranquility before the end of the world. Making short videos was just a side job. His real purpose was to enjoy the sunny pastoral life that was "about to disappear."

He knew that this kind of idyllic life would become less and less with each passing day, and would no longer exist when darkness fell. It could be said to be the most precious "luxury" in the world. Many people now enjoy the free sunshine and think it is too common, but when the end of the world comes, they will miss it endlessly.

For children born after the end of the world, days with sunshine every day only exist in "ancient legends".

With a team, you have to manage it and deal with all kinds of messy things, and it is very easy to have conflicts of interest and lawsuits. Li Xiang would find it "annoying" and it would be a "burden" for him.

"That's such a pity." He Zhixiang sighed.

Afterwards, the two men agreed on the content of the ad and the general method of placement. He Zhixiang then generously took out two red bills from his bag, one thicker and one thinner, and handed them to Li Xiang: "It's exactly 16000 yuan. I ordered it before. You can order more." Li Xiang smiled and said, "No need to order. I trust you."

He Zhixiang insisted: "Brother, you should order a little. Although the money is not much, you should still follow the rules."

Li Xiang smiled and started counting in front of everyone.

Several elderly people in the village: "..." Their eyes flickered, and they looked at Grandma Li Xiang with envy, thinking how great it would be if this was my grandson?
Before, they were talking about 16,000, but I just listened to it, and now they really took it out.

The red coins were being counted one by one right under their noses. The unique sound of the brand new money sounded quite pleasant.

After Li Xiang finished ordering, he joked, "The amount is correct. Do you want me to write you a receipt?"

Unexpectedly, He Zhixiang thought seriously for three seconds and said, "It would be best if you can issue an invoice. That's my suggestion."

Li Xiang was stunned: "Thank you, I will register one when I have time next time."

The main reason was that he had never done this before and needed to check the information and understand the procedures first.

He Zhixiang's advice reminded him that making money through self-media would be more troublesome in the future if he did not have a company or studio.

After all, it is not the end of the world yet, and it has not reached the point of lawlessness.

Even if Li Xiang's strength is improved to a level that ordinary people can hardly imagine, he cannot act recklessly because he still has weaknesses.

Grandma, Jiang Caier, relatives from my grandparents' side... they are all weak points.

Unless the end of the world really comes and he establishes his own power, he can be the "king" in his territory.

Although He Zhixiang was just visiting, he came from afar and gave him money, so Li Xiang gave him the basket of winter bamboo shoots he had just dug and stuffed the bamboo basket into his trunk. This was a good thing, and the soil on it was fresh.

"Thank you, thank you." He Zhixiang also liked it very much and took a cigarette from the passenger seat as a return gift.

Li Xiang didn't want it at first. He gave the other party the winter bamboo shoots as a token of his appreciation, but he didn't intend to ask for the other party's cigarettes.

But He Zhixiang forced it on him and said, "This is just a little gift from me. I just happened to be passing by when I came here, so I didn't have time to buy a suitable gift."

Li Xiang took it and took a look. It was a famous cigarette from Yunnan Province, the soft big Chongjiu.

After He Zhixiang left, several elderly people in the village sat for a while, chatted for a while, and then left.

Soon, almost all the villagers knew about it and everyone was envious.

At the same time, another piece of news spread, that is, Li Xiang plans to sell winter bamboo shoots through live streaming. If you have mushrooms at home, you can also bring them over to sell.

In fact, he had this idea a long time ago, but he felt a little embarrassed because he had too few fans before. What if the sales volume was too small? Wouldn’t that be embarrassing?
This time, after seeing his "ability to make money", several elderly people persuaded him to do something for the village. After all, Li Xiang is the future village chief, and Li Jinyu has already told everyone that he wants to train Li Xiang as his successor.
