Happy Little Mayor

Chapter 483: .Garage Sale Festival (4/5)

In his accumulated work, another item that needs his approval is the application of town residents to set up a garage sale festival.

New Zealand is a country of immigrants. Its population is made up of people from all over the world, so customs and traditions are diverse, and festivals are diverse.

Some people have counted. Looking at the whole country of New Zealand, there are 365 days a year, and there are festivals every day, and people are celebrating.

The government encourages the establishment of special festivals in various places. One is that they can be retained as a culture, and the other is that there is consumption when there are festivals, which can promote economic development.

As a result, New Zealanders have developed a consciousness to apply for a festival when there is any collective activity. If the festival does not develop, it does not matter. Once it develops, they will be remembered by the local history as the organizer of the festival.

For New Zealanders without history, their quest for history is the strongest.

The garage sale festival is actually a second-hand goods trading festival. Wang Bo, who is accustomed to Chinese thinking, has difficulty understanding New Zealanders' enthusiasm for trading second-hand goods.

In this country, second-hand goods stores may be opened on bustling commercial main streets to open doors generously. New Zealanders are also holding their heads in second-hand shops for exchanging used goods or taking their own second-hand goods here for valuation and consignment. They do not think it is shameful to buy second-hand goods.

There are second-hand goods stores in cities, and townships and towns will not have such a store because of insufficient spending power, so the garage sale this transaction method came into being.

The vast majority of New Zealanders live in detached houses, and detached houses basically have garages. So, if New Zealanders feel that they have too much useless stuff, can't put it down, or move their family to other cities or even other places In the country, many things ca n’t be taken away, so they will be put in the garage for sale.

However, the residential area is not a commercial area, and the flow of people is relatively small, so natural business is not easy to do.

So, when a New Zealander wants to do a garage sale, they will find a weekend day, then write the sale item, address and time in cardboard, and then paste the cardboard into an obvious place on the street to advertise.

However, after all, New Zealand has a small population and few people see such advertisements. Garage sales are still difficult to get up, so the Garage Sale Festival was born.

This is a common festival in towns and villages. On a certain day, every family opens the garage and displays the goods they do not need to trade with each other.

It is necessary for the residents of the town to apply to Wang Bo to set up this festival, because the immigration of the town has recently increased sharply, and many new families have come to Sunset Town.

When these new families move in, they do n’t need some things, and they need to buy some new necessities. If a garage sale festival is held, then they will sell things they do n’t need on the one hand and buy others at a low price. What the home does not need but what they need.

Speaking of which, this is an opportunity for redistribution of resources, on-demand allocation, mutual benefit, and this festival is very valuable to the township residents who are not generous at hand.

Wang Bo asked Carter to disconnect the network, and then a group of people gathered in the conference room to discuss the situation of the festival.

New Zealand festivals are not necessarily grand celebrations, such as the garage sale festival, which is not an annual event but a long-term high-frequency event. Many towns and villages hold it once a month.

Na Qingyang attended the town meeting for the first time. In addition to introducing himself and being familiar with each other, he did not speak anymore, but just listened to the discussion quietly.

The main theme of the meeting is not to discuss whether to hold it, but how to hold it. Therefore, after negotiating the holding time and publicity method, the meeting can be adjourned.

After the meeting, Wang Bo left that Qingyang and asked: "Brother A, do you have any ideas? Why didn't you say a word just now?"

Qingyang said with a bitter smile: "I will not apply for employment first. I have to apply for an English class first. I have worked hard to strengthen my English training in the country, but no, the English of New Zealanders is not the same as mine."

This is indeed the case. Wang Bo patted his forehead and said, "Forget this, let's go. I'll find a teacher for you to learn. Your English really needs to be strengthened."

The garage sale festival is booked, and the first festival is on the second weekend of March for two days.

The promotion of the town is simple. Carter has built a forum belonging to the town through the smart city network system. You can log in to the webpage from the computer or log in to the app on the mobile phone and post a message on it.

In addition, such a festival should be expanded as much as possible. The city of Olympiad, Homeless Town, Louis Town, and Tahiti Town, which is the opposite of him, must be promoted.

Wang Bo didn't need to do these tasks. Bowen took the lead and Kidd cooperated. The two produced a publicity plan and used billboards to accompany the newspapers. The news of the town's garage sale festival spread.

In addition, Bowen asked Wang Bo for approval to invest in a large billboard: the billboard that stands on both sides of the highway is ten meters high, and the billboard area is five square meters, which is very eye-catching.

This billboard includes a support frame and a plaque. It costs a total of $ 50,000, and the price is high, but it can be used repeatedly in the future, and it can even receive advertisements, so the later stage revenue is also considerable.

Beginning in mid-March, the billboards were erected with a huge poster with images of various furniture and daily necessities. In addition, there was a striking slogan: handsome guys and beautiful women are coming to meet, I am waiting in sunset town you!

This is a slogan designed by Bao Wen to promote the town when Wang Bo first arrived in Sunset Town the year before, and now it has finally been used to please the deputy mayor.

For this garage sale festival, the townspeople still took it very seriously. After entering the second week in March, Wang Bo often saw someone packing the garage when he was commuting.

After staying at the castle for a few days, Bo Da Bo Bo gradually got used to New Zealand life.

They lack people who can communicate, but it's not okay to do it. Wang Bo once opened up a vegetable garden and hired a Maori to take charge. Bo Da Bo Ma is not only good at fishing, but also a good farmer. Let's run to take care of this vegetable garden Already.

As long as they are happy, Wang Bo knows that this is not tiring for them. In this case, they are willing to go and go to work.

However, he estimated that his parents were also very interested in the garage sale festival, so he told them that every day the things sold by families were cheap and they could go and see.

Bo Ma asked: "What if we go to order something?"

Wang Bo said blankly: "I can't say that there are vegetables and fruits for sale in the supermarket. I don't know if the townspeople will buy them."

Bo Da waved his hand and said, "Your mother means, will there be any shy guy in the city?"

Wang Bo was embarrassed: "Dad, what urban management is in town?"

Bo Ma muttered: "I think your life is like city management."

Wang Bo: "..." (To be continued.)
