TRANSMIGRATED TO THE 80S TO BECOME STEPMOTHERS FOR FIVE HIGHER-UPS
Chapter 225: Both Boys and Girls Should Protect Themselves
On the next page was a portrait of someone else he knew. Since their interactions did not overlap, Mu Jingzhe also did not know any other acquaintances of Ji Buwang, so he only drew people he knew.
For example, Uncle Li, Shao Dong, Shao Xi, Shao Qihai, Shao Qiyang, Li Zhaodi, Mu Teng, and Mu Han. When he turned the page of Uncle Li, Ji Buwang looked at him for a long time. "So that's how you look, Uncle Li."
As for Shao Dong and his brothers, as they were still growing up, this portrait was only temporary.
Although it was temporary, as Mu Jingzhe was used to drawing it, they were all very lively.
Ji Buwang kept smiling until he saw Shao Qihai and Shao Qiyang. He pouted and muttered, "I don't want to remember them ..."
Even though he said that, Ji Buwang still looked at him seriously. There was no other reason than to compare himself to them.
“From the looks of it, both are quite handsome, but not as handsome as I.”
After reaching this conclusion, Ji Buwang turned the page in satisfaction. When he saw Li Zhaodi, Ji Buwang could not help but let out a 'oh'.
Mu Jingzhe had drawn Li Zhaodi's portrait clearly, so Li Zhaodi's bandit-like appearance with her sunglasses and curly hair was fully drawn. Although her biological mother's filter gave her a cute appearance, it couldn't hide a bit of banditry in her.
Ji Buwang laughed. “So this is how Auntie looks. Jingzhe looks like her father, so does Mu Han.”
Ji Buwang flipped through the pages of the notebook back and forth, rolling around on the bed fondly. His only regret was that Mu Jingzhe did not pull himself into it.
While Ji Buwang was happy, Shao Qihai and Shao Qiyang were not too happy. Shao Qihai was even looking forward to his birthday so that he could receive a birthday present.
However, after Ji Buwang's birthday, Mu Jingzhe was very busy. The hair business continues to grow. Meanwhile, Shao Qiyang's courier business gradually stabilized, so Mu Jingzhe naturally had to cooperate with him. It was also a mutually beneficial arrangement.
After this development, Mu Jingzhe did not have the time to personally deliver the items at all times. The main focus now is managing the design creation process. For this job, he specifically hired two designers. One is a true designer, the kind who has graduated from university. She already had a job, but Mu Jingzhe did not give up and asked her to work part-time.
The other person was a woman from the Great Eastern Village. This woman is very talented and draws the most beautiful flowers. The color combination was new, and he was born to be in this line of work. After accidentally seeing his creation, Mu Jingzhe invited him to become a designer by himself.
As the team progressed, Mu Jingzhe focused more on other things.
Production in the paper making factory went very smoothly. Mu Jingzhe recruited a group of salespeople for the marketing department. There are guaranteed salaries and commissions, and both men and women are employed. At first, the girls couldn't just let go, but after some training, they started to develop their sales skills.
In addition to the sale of toilet paper, the promotion of sanitary napkins went quite well and really created a market. However, male sellers are having some problems in promoting sanitary pads. First, maybe at first they can't just let go. Second, customers do not listen to men. It was fine if the customer ran away bashfully, but when they met a tough one, they might get beaten up, he said, either because customers feel shameless or because they think that they are deliberately flirting with them. After being chased and beaten several times, they had no choice but to give up. Then, they mainly promoted toilet paper.
Soon, the majority of people left in the marketing department were women, including employees who improved the design of the pads. Mu Jingzhe felt this was quite good. Girls know how to design such items to make them more comfortable, and this also increases the employment rate of women.
In order to expand the market, Mu Jingzhe produced one or two independently packaged sanitary pads to give away for free according to feedback and based on some of his experiences in his previous life.
Mu Jingzhe felt that compared to toilet paper, sanitary pads were much more useful. Therefore, it is a good idea to give free pads to everyone to try them out. They cannot guarantee that everyone will switch to using pads after trying them, but it will be enough if only ten percent of those people switch to using pads.
After producing the free sample, Mu Jingzhe brought himself one batch back to the village, wanting to distribute it to the villagers. Shao Dong, Little Bei, and the others were used to seeing whenever Mu Jingzhe brought something and they would always be surprised by what they saw.
But this time, they couldn't understand. "Mom, what is this?" Shao Qihai poked his head out to look with curiosity.
“You don't need to use this. This is ... sanitary napkin. Girls use it when they are adults.” Thinking that Shao Dong and Shao Xi were already eight years old, he realized time was passing very quickly and they would be nine years old in the blink of an eye. So, it was time for them to acquire some physiological knowledge. Moreover, the sanitary pad was not something to be ashamed of, so he directly informed them about it.
The reaction of the five children was fine. They just took a few curious looks. On the other hand, Shao Qihai choked on the air he was breathing.
Then, he looked at Mu Jingzhe, wanting to say something, but stopped himself. Mu Jingzhe said, “It's not a big deal to tell them about it. If you hide something, it makes people even more curious. Look, now that I tell them, they're not curious anymore. ”
The curiosity of children is very strange. The more adults try to cover something up, the more they want to understand.
“In addition, when they will grow up, you should also give them some physiological knowledge and inform them about certain changes. I will also tell Little Bei when he grows up later.”
If Shao Qihai did not return, he would probably ask Shao Qiyang to tell the children about it in the future. Normally, he would teach them a little on his own, but since Shao Qihai had returned, he asked him to do so.
Shao Qihai looked at the honest Mu Jingzhe and remembered what it was like to be young. He suddenly felt that what the woman said was true, so he nodded.
He had no idea that the reason the five children accepted him so quickly was because Mu Jingzhe had already laid down his foundation. At that time, there were no diapers. Many two or three-year-olds still wear open pants[1], regardless of whether they are male or female.
However, after thinking about the way people in the future educate their children, and because he has seen a lot of news reports, he said, Mu Jingzhe decided it was better to be safe than sorry and told the children that they should learn to protect themselves.
He had told them not to take off their clothes or casually let others hug them.
Both boys and girls need to protect themselves. Even though the people in the Great Eastern Village looked normal at the moment, who knows? It's just a precaution. Especially now that the five children are often out.
Mu Jingzhe started handing out sanitary pads that day. First, he distributed it to the young woman and the young wife who worked for him. Then, he looked for someone else who had already become an old acquaintance and he did not feel uncomfortable to mention this.
Li Zhaodi also helped. While carrying a bag of pads, he ran door to door, sincerely recommending it to everyone. “I didn't think to use this before, but Jingzhe said it's a good item and insisted on giving it to me last time. I couldn't bear to refuse, so I tried. It's much better than paper. You should remember to try it!”
Li Zhaodi put in a lot of effort on this. First, he really thought it was good, and secondly, he felt Jingzhe could earn money if people ended up buying it, so he was very enthusiastic.
