As soon as Yao Yuan opened his eyes, he smelled the aroma of rice. It was the aroma formed after rice was mixed with shredded pork and vegetables and slowly simmered over low heat.
He got up, and sure enough, the casserole on the stove was steaming, containing vegetable and lean meat porridge.
Yao Yuan looked at it, took two eggs and started frying them. While they were frying, Zhang Yin opened the door and came in, carrying a few hot rolls and a small pickle in his hand.
"What time did you get up? Did you go for a run?"
"I ran around the house for a while, and the air is very dirty today. I originally wanted to buy steamed buns, but when I wanted to make lean meat porridge, I changed it to flower rolls. I haven't eaten flower rolls for a long time."
Tsk!
Yao Yuan is actually very hard-working, but in front of this kind of girlfriend, he looks like a cripple, with a big cake around his neck that he doesn't even bother to turn around and eat.
The porridge was ready soon, and the two of them had breakfast.
Zhang Yin ate quickly, drank a bowl with a slurp, put down her chopsticks, picked up her bag and left: "I have to go to class!"
"I……"
"You don't need to send me off. I'm leaving. Call me when you get to Guangzhou!"
boom!
Alas, heartless woman!
Yao Yuan ate slowly by himself, washed the dishes, packed his luggage, and went downstairs at around ten o'clock.
Xiao Mo was waiting below, chewing gum in his mouth. He didn't drive an Accord today, but a business car that could seat 7-8 people.
Let’s go to the dormitory over in Haidian first.
The company now has two base camps, Tuanjiehu and Zhongguancun. Employees in Zhongguancun live in Haidian. After waiting on the roadside for a while, Sun Juan came out with a few of his subordinates.
The route this time is: first go to Guangzhou to see the branch and warehouse construction there, then go to Zhuhai to see Meizu, and then go to Shanghai to also inspect the branch.
Finally I went to Zhejiang.
To make clothes, Meike Eslite cannot do without upstream industries, and Zhejiang and Guangdong are the two places with the most developed textile industries in China. Sun Juan wants to investigate them personally.
Boss Yao went south to inspect the industry, so he took him with him. Anyway, the more he looked at him, the more he looked like a Boston round face.
"How is the entertainment company doing?"
"I had nothing to do all day long, and Mr. Yu took over the job very thoroughly. The little girl at the front desk started writing copybooks."
"Oh, anyway, I will wrong you for one year and then I will be fine next year."
"No grievance, no grievance, this is also my dedication to the company!"
When Yao Yuan asked him to deal with Super Girl, he was actually taking the blame and becoming a target. Sun Jun knew it very well. This was called surrender.
It was a long way to the airport, and the few of us had nothing to talk about. The main reason was that Commander Yao was out of energy, leaning on his chair and yawning. When Xiao Mo saw it, he took something out of his pocket and said, "Try this, it will make you feel better."
"
"What the hell?"
Yao Yuan took a look and saw that it was vacuum-packed like a snack, with two words printed on it: Betel nut!
Oops!
He looked at Xiao Mo's mouth and said, "Is it the betel nut you are chewing?"
"Well, I haven't eaten it before. I tasted it recently and it feels good. People say that 'betel nut mixed with smoke will have boundless magical power' and 'betel nut mixed with wine will live to ninety-nine.'"
"You can throw away Rajbao! It is a first-level carcinogen."
"puff!"
Xiao Mo almost missed it, "Does this thing cause cancer?"
"Yeah, just chew it if you think it's okay!"
"Well……"
Xiao Mo hesitated, so he decided to pull out a tissue and spit out the betel nut in his mouth.
Yao Yuan had eaten this stuff when he was young and had a taste of it. As a result, after eating it, his body became hot, his chest was tight and he was short of breath. It was a strange and slightly uncomfortable feeling. He never tried it again.
Sun Juan heard this for the first time and said: "Since it causes cancer, how can it still be sold?"
"Why……"
Yao Yuan continued to lean on his chair and yawned: "The food and clothing of millions of water workers depends on it!"
…………
I slept all the way to Guangzhou.
Yao Yuan, Sun Jun, three employees, and bodyguard Xiao Mo, a total of six people.
The manager of the branch here, surnamed Qin, came with a car to pick him up. On the way from Baiyun Airport to the hotel, he kept smiling and flattering him. What he said the most was that the branch had just been established and the conditions were poor. Mr. Yao shouldn't be surprised.
How could Mr. Yao be offended?
Mr. Yao didn't even know him.
Guangzhou’s GDP this year ranks third in the country. As one of the earliest cities to develop reform and opening up, Guangzhou’s economic status has always been one of the best for decades to come.
And it is very low-key, unlike Shenzhen next door, where there are high-rise buildings and citizen culture. The old man wearing a white vest, big pants, sandals, and a watch worth hundreds of thousands of dollars is the most interesting business card of the city.
Yao Yuan looked at the street scene outside the window and couldn't help but daydream, oh, it would actually be nice to be reborn in Guangzhou, preferably in the late 1970s, where there were many features of the era.
We went to the hotel to rest. In the evening, Manager Qin hosted a banquet. After dinner, he went to the nightclub. He said that he had the most beautiful girl in Guangzhou and the most professional service in Guangzhou...
Yao Yuan is so angry, don’t talk to me about this, don’t you know why the company sent you here? You are the most professional in Guangzhou... If you have the ability, you can find me Dongguan!
Yao Yuan told Manager Qin to go away and took Sun Juan and Xiao Mo for a casual stroll. When they were tired from shopping, they went to have a midnight snack.
When it comes to food, Guangdong Province has no one to lose. Roast suckling pig, chicken, dragon, tiger and phoenix (snake meat, cat meat, chicken stew), Hu Jianren, there are many varieties.
The two of them ate rice rolls.
Beef and shredded lettuce wrapped in vermicelli, cut into sections, topped with soy sauce, delicious.
Yao Yuan tasted a piece and asked casually: "What do you think of Manager Qin?"
"..."
Sun Jun paused with his chopsticks and said as objectively as possible: "The manager of a local branch will inevitably be a little out of touch when meeting you. Since Mr. Liu sent him here, he should be capable. Besides, it's hard to judge after we just met."
"Well, that's true."
Yao Yuan accepted this statement, dropped the subject, and said, "How do you plan to start?"
Sun Juan was obviously very well prepared and without any preparation, he opened his mouth and said: "Without a physical store, no middlemen, no factories, direct sales of clothing, then we are just like a large transit station.
Upstream, we find fabric factories and garment factories for OEM, logistics and distribution. If we can use our own, we will use our own. If not, we can outsource it.
We retain the functions of design, order taking, quality inspection, order dispatching, etc. You might say this is called traveling with ease.
I think there are two cores, one is to build a supply chain data platform, and the other is to find the right foundry. I plan to start with the foundry. I don’t need too many at first, just a few..."
Yao Yuan couldn't help but nodded.
Sun Juan has never been exposed to clothing or e-commerce, so to be able to talk about building a supply chain platform shows that he has put in a lot of hard work.
Meike Eslite seems to be copied from Fanke, but it is actually different.
It appears as a self-operated brand in the mall. It travels lightly and does not engage in production or physical stores. This greatly reduces costs, otherwise the burden would be too heavy.
If it develops well, we can build a Zara-style flagship store in the future.
"Okay, you can do your research tomorrow, and I'll go to my Zhuhai and split up."
Yao Yuan ate another piece of rice rolls, which was indeed delicious. He felt that the ones he had eaten before were not authentic. For a while, Guangzhou was no longer accessible. It was just authentic.
