Knight of the Light

The lunch at the roadside stall is a dollar per person, which is quite cheap. But in this case, many farmers who came to the market could not afford it.

Xiao Jinlang paid for it and planned to take Chen to walk to see the harmonious supermarket opened in the county seat.

The county seat of Andong County is two parallel streets constructed in mountain valleys. The area is relatively small, and you can walk around the city in an hour.

After the layout of Tianyang City was completed, 'Harmonious Super Business' was sinking step by step according to Zhou Qingfeng's requirements. After all, there are less than one million people in the city, but the total population of Tianyang area is nearly ten million.

Different from the store in the city, the rent in the county is cheaper, and a super retailer has rented four or five stores in a row. Including used appliances, furniture, clothing, daily necessities, and even a fast food restaurant.

Xiao Jinlang has never seen a fast food restaurant, but there are many people at the door. Director Chen stood and glanced for a few moments, and said in amazement, "This is a bit like McDonald's abroad. I have eaten in the United States."

Twenty square meters of the store, a lot of bright-colored decoration materials. The "Holy Light" logo is very shiny. The store has ceilings, whitewashed walls, and professional cooking appliances are placed behind the counter.

However, this scene is still different from McDonald's.

The current domestic edible oil production is insufficient, and fried foods cannot be promoted. The machine-made dumplings are on the large-scale market. They are boiled in the big pot and floated in the rolling hot soup.

A big problem in the current domestic catering industry is that they are not too particular about the appearance, and they also ridicule themselves ‘do n’t do it clean, eat no problem’. The kitchen was full of dark soot, and the stove was covered with dust.

To Zhou Qingfeng's fast food restaurant, all tables, chairs, counters, tableware and kitchenware must be cleaned every day. All waiters and chefs must wear clean clothes and caps.

In short, it is necessary to achieve differentiated operation and give customers a sense of freshness and high-end.

Xiao Jinlang glanced at the menus posted on the wall. They were easy-to-process foods such as steamed buns, dumplings, and dumplings. Any dishes that are too cumbersome are invisible.

There is also a freezer in the store, which specializes in ready-made fast food, as well as drinks and ice cream. It's only early May, and the weather isn't hot. Many children still come to buy soda.

Standing at the door of the shop for a while, Lao Xiao suddenly felt that they should not have lunch at the roadside stall. It should be better to eat here. Director Chen felt his stomach and sighed, "Buy a drink and drink."

The price of Coca-Cola has not changed for a long time. Jianlibao is not cheap now, and ordinary families cannot afford it. However, local places often have their own beverage factories, which sell much cheaper.

‘Harmony Super Business’ allows Tianyang Soda Factory to do foundry work, and the produced soda is sold under its own brand. A bottle of 50 cents. If the glass bottle is recycled, you can find another one.

Once the beverage industry has achieved an export reputation, it is a huge profit. Director Chen spent two yuan to buy two bottles, opened the bottle and took a sip, and spit it out.

"What's wrong?" Xiao Jinlang was frightened holding the bottle in his hand. "Too bad?"

It's not difficult to drink, but the director from didu has never seen such a bold person like Zhou Qingfeng. He pointed at the sticker on the bottle, "How can this be painted ..."

‘Holy Light’ brand soda, the trademark naturally passes through the holy light under the girl ’s skirt.

"It's too bad to teach children." The director yelled angrily.

"I thought what were you going to say?" Xiao Jinlang said calmly, holding up the bottle and taking a sip. "Listening to the company, this trademark was designed by President Zhou himself."

Alas ... Director Chen took another sip and felt Zhou Qingfeng's bad taste deeply.

The cold soda is delicious and the caramel sweetness brings satisfaction. The carbon dioxide bursts out of the mouth and is particularly comfortable. No wonder kids love it.

In order to attract people, outside the fast-food restaurant also put a TV show on TV. This trick has been used in Nantou Township, the effect is particularly good. Passers-by outside the shop are inevitable to come and take a look, especially the children.

Today's film is ‘Rodin ’s lover’, Isabella Ajani ’s famous work. Probably the hormones are too strong. French films are always so many people ...

In short, Ajani is pretty like a fairy.

Zhou Qingfeng wanted to show some domestic movies and TV shows, but he couldn't find anything good. You ca n’t just play "Journey to the West" every day.

There are three layers inside and three layers outside the big color TV, and there are many people watching it. Many students don't go to class and secretly crowd the crowd to see that they must be scolded by adults.

Lao Xiao glanced and walked to several other stores. He was keen to find that the second-hand goods sold in the county seat were significantly lower, and the prices were often below 500 yuan. A few dollars of daily necessities are particularly large.

These are nothing, but a sign in front of the store attracted Lao Xiao's attention. The above is a reminder of recruitment and training. There is actually a word for free training packages for employment.

Director Chen asked in puzzlement: "What is Zhou Qingfeng doing? He is not good at smuggling business.

"You can't treat that guy as a normal person, he might just be bored." Xiao Jinlang didn't explain anything else. After investigating for half a month, he knew too much about what Uncle Zhou had done.

There are also many people around the recruitment notice, and from time to time someone enters the store to ask. Wages, types of work, work locations, training content, and details are all questions.

Xiao Jinlang entered the store and came out with a poorly printed leaflet. Above are detailed descriptions of different recruitment positions, most of which are recruited by 'harmonious business firms'.

Director Chen squeezed his head over and glanced at ‘Oh,’ he exclaimed: “Is this wrong, the salary is so high?”

In fact, it is not high at all. It is nothing more than a monthly salary of one hundred workers who work on the construction site. The requirements are hard work, resentment, obedience to orders, not lazy.

There is also a cook who cooks at the construction site. Men and women are not limited in age, but they require a medical examination.

The strangest thing is that even the most common coolies are trained for three days. It doesn't matter if you are in your 40s, 50s or 20s or 30s.

"This is probably not a rule made by Zhou Qingfeng, but a certain engineer battalion of 'harmonious construction' cannot stand the freedom of the migrant workers." Xiao Jinlang explained.

"Is there such a thing?" Director Chen opened his eyes. Since I arrived in Tianyang, what I saw and heard was actually new. He personally entered the shop and asked, and when he came out, he sighed.

"It is said that it has already hired more than 1,000 people, and this month's salary will cost at least more than 100,000. It is really rare that companies can still hire so many people. No wonder Tianyang fully protects him.

Looking at the crowd in front of several shops, Xiao Jinlang whispered softly: "Don't watch Zhou Qingfeng spend more, in fact, he earns more.

In previous investigations, I could only see the appearance. After serving as the liaison director, you can see many internal company reports.

Don't look at the smuggled goods made by ‘Sacred Light’. In fact, the company ’s stores under the market are also making money. "

Director Chen narrowed his eyes and displayed pots and pans that were cheaply sold outside the shop, and asked unbelievably, "You say that even a few cents can make money?"

"Yes." Xiao Jinlang nodded. "It's just a small profit but a long sale. Zhou Qingfeng likes to make loans in kind, and every month he goes out for more than 100,000 or even hundreds of thousands.

Watching all this money go to waste. Who is taking the loan from him? They are all poor people who usually have little money, and they also buy the cheapest things.

Note that ‘Sacred Light’ is a physical loan. Zhou Qingfeng collects daily necessities that cannot be sold in the city at a very low price and sells them to farmers as loans.

The loaned money and goods circulated outside, and eventually they will be turned into funds and physical objects and returned to the account of "Holy Light".

"Holy Light" allows those who borrow to repay their loans with labor and production in kind. This flow of funds is very fast, and some towns can make a circle in half a month.

Think about the millions of people in Tianyang. The bottom-level business is going to be monopolized by the "Holy Light". Do you think Zhou Qingfeng really lost money? He's fine. "

According to Zhou Qingfeng, this is called forcing consumption.
