Shopping service means villagers can grab online bargains at last

Zeng Jinchai used the online shopping service station in his village to order an Italian food delivery with a difference to celebrate his father-in-law's 92nd birthday.

Instead of simply having a meal delivered to his home, he found a company that was able to send three uniformed foreign chefs to cook spaghetti and other dishes for an outdoor buffet.

"My first thought was to buy Italian food ingredients online to prepare a meal for the birthday party, but then I realized no one in the village knows how to cook Italian food," he said.
