C867 The Difficulties of Supermarkets

After hanging up the phone with Zhao Xiang, Li Tian thought of the Supermarket Group, so he called Zhou Rui again. Recently, Zhou Rui had been really tired, as she had completed the plans for the entire province, but had not begun to expand, and was only waiting for Li Tian's funds.

"You actually know how to give your wife a call? I thought that you were eaten by wolves in the North and I have no way to contact you on my own. I don't even know if I should pull a three feet long piece of white silk to give you a dress of filial piety." The phone call had just been picked up, and Zhou Rui had already started swearing at them. No wonder, ever since Li Tian arrived in the North Atlantic, she had not called them even once, which was normal for them to be in such a mood, although it was a bit excessive speaking, but Li Tian could understand, she would look for a wife and not coax his wife, only running around the house everyday. When she returned, she would definitely accompany them at home properly.

Actually, I missed you a lot. I found a piece of jade in the middle of the mountain, although it's not the highest grade of white jade, but it's also very good. Wait until I find someone who understands, let him polish it properly, then I'll make you a jade pendant. Li Tian's ability to coax girls was not bad, and with just a few words, he made Zhou Rui laugh. Hearing that Li Tian had worked so hard to find jade for him, Zhou Rui was also very touched.

"Remember, you have to be careful to stay warm inside the mountain. Don't look at how strong your body is right now, but when you get old, it will easily cause your joints to become diseased. Don't do everything by yourself, why are you bringing so many people over. Five minutes ago, he had scolded Li Tian to death, and five minutes later, he was already full of concern for his. He wished that he could fly over from Ludong Province's side to accompany Li Tian, but Zhou Rui also knew that it would be even more useless for him to enter the mountain as a girl. He might as well just stay there and help Li Tian look after the Supermarket Group, only now, he really wanted Li Tian to appear in front of her as soon as possible.

"Since the time you left, we have already drawn up plans for the expansion of the province, and now it is basically done. We have a total of dozens of cities on our side that need expansion, but according to the information I obtained, the Great Harmony City has already encircled us, and I have also talked to some people, and the news is likely to be true, they want to trap us in the Ludong Province. Aside from the Shantai City, the other regions around us have also added shops, and they also know that there is no way for the Shantai City to infiltrate in, so they need to surround us in other areas, so we need to invest more." Talking about the future of Supermarket Group, Zhou Rui's face did not look that happy.

They had opened three supermarkets in the Earth City surrounding the Shantai City. In addition to the four supermarkets that they had set up, they had doubled the power of the Far Flower supermarket. After leaving the Shantai City, they did not have a large base in the Far Flower supermarket anymore, and their management and reputation were all inferior to theirs, so Zhou Rui had been troubled recently.

You have to remember what I've told you before, in the entire Lee Group, the Supermarket Group is the most important branch company. As long as it is properly managed, then it is equivalent to setting up an invisible advertisement, and the other companies will be able to obtain the profits, so in terms of capital investment, there is definitely no problem at all. I can give you another 1 billion funds here, and I can only give you one request: Take down all three of the cities surrounding the Shantai City. Li Tian said heroically. To the current Lee Group, the profits of the Supermarket Group could be said to be very low, but the Supermarket Group had its own advantages, that was, the area it covered was relatively wide, and the amount of money that the Supermarket Group had was also relatively large. Everyone who went to the supermarket to buy things would all be paid on the spot, and there was no problem with them delaying.

Amongst all of Li Tian's companies, the reason why the authorities paid the most attention to him was because Supermarket Group was concerned with the daily life of commoners. When Li Tian had problems, the officials were most afraid that the Supermarket Group would suddenly stop, and if that was the case, it would not be a good thing for the citizens of any region, as in order to obtain the support of the officials, Li Tian had to make a strong Supermarket Group of his own. It turned out that the Shantai City was the biggest supermarket chain in the entire province, and it was precisely for this reason that the relevant leaders of the province would probably support Li Tian, not only because of the pressure of the National Security Service, but also because of his economic strength.

If it was really like that, then there wouldn't be a problem. Earlier, Li Tian had already injected 500 million yuan into the market, and now, it was just three cities, according to their original investment plans, it should be around 1.2 billion yuan. Now, it had exceeded 300 million yuan, and the competition in the supermarket was just like a competition to throw money, as long as there was enough money, no one could stand in front of you.

The battles in these three places were not the same as the ones in the Shantai City. Although the Shantai City and Li Tian had the best time and place in the world, it was not easy to win either, so when facing these big shots in the retail trade, one had to be careful at every step, and now that they were outside, one had to be even more careful. If one was not careful, there was a possibility of others finding a weak point, even though Zhou Rui had been running the supermarket for a long time, but compared to these old foxes, he still had to be inferior.

After Zhou Rui gave a few more words to Li Tian, she reluctantly hung up the phone and also told Li Tian to return earlier. In her heart, Li Tian was also missing Zhou Rui, a fine and healthy lady was trapped inside the Supermarket Group, and every day, she would be facing the matters of the company. She also needed love to nourish her family, so Li Tian felt that he owed her a lot.
