The big brother of Cao Wen, manager of the supermarket's home appliance business, rang. He hurriedly answered the phone and learned the bad news that many suppliers were demanding cash settlement.
"Damn it, these profiteers are taking advantage of the situation!"
Cao Wen hung up the phone and cursed his mother in anger.
"It's a businessman's nature to take advantage of the situation. It's no big deal. We'll do it now." Chen Hao remained calm and said with a smile: "It's getting late. Let's break up. Recharge your batteries tonight and fight again tomorrow."
More than a dozen people got up and left.
Chen Hao came to the window and stared at the other side of the Pujiang River. The smile on his face disappeared. The first time he entered the business world, he encountered Old Man Li's Yangtze River system.
It would be nonsense to say that he is not under any pressure at all.
"Boss, drink some water."
Before Huang Yali left, she poured a cup of hot water for Chen Hao.
"Thanks."
Chen Hao took the water glass and took a sip slowly.
Huang Yali said: "Boss, no matter what happens in the end, I...we will accompany you until the end."
"I'm not sure about the others in Haoxiang, but I believe that you will be able to accompany me to the end." Chen Hao smiled and looked at Huang Yali.
The two of them were very close.
Huang Yali lowered her head to avoid the young boss's gaze.
Shy?
Chen Hao was surprised and shy when he saw Huang Yali for the first time.
"I heard that you haven't had much rest in the past few days. Have a good sleep tonight and don't think too much." Chen Hao smiled and patted Huang Liya's shoulder and arm.
This is his habitual action.
It's quiet at night.
A lonely man and a widow live together in the same room.
Huang Yali knew that Chen Hao had no evil intentions, but she still blushed and nodded hurriedly. She walked to the door, opened the door, and couldn't help but look back at the figure standing in front of the window.
This slender and tall figure seemed to have a unique charm, which made Huang Yali's heart beat.
............
July 21st.
The news of the 50% off sale at Haoxiang Supermarket and Lianhua Supermarket spread throughout the city, and more people gathered at these 21 supermarkets.
On this day, Haoxiang Lotus's turnover hit a new high.
But people on both sides were not happy.
The happy ones are those who buy something.
On the third day of the big sale, even though it was already a working day, people's enthusiasm remained undiminished. People from nearby Magic City came to join in the fun and even lined up on the floor all night long.

Another weekend has arrived.
It was still dark, and there were crowds of people in front of twenty-one supermarkets.
"Brother, where are you from?"
"From Hangzhou."
"Where are you from?"
"From Sioux City."
The crowd was filled with similar conversations.
It’s not just the locals in Shanghai who come to snap up items.
People from surrounding cities were also attracted by this unprecedented promotion.
Lotus headquarters.
In the conference room, Tang Rui stood at the conference table and said loudly: "Haoxiang has already lost 22 million. They can't survive this weekend. If we persist for two more days, we will be the winners. After Haoxiang is eliminated, we will lose our entire family."
Duda, no one can stop our Lotus from expanding!"
More than a dozen people, including Kong Guohua, applauded and looked forward to a better future.
Influenced by Tang Rui's analysis, they also determined that the funds Haoxiang could use did not exceed 30 million. In the past week, Haoxiang had lost 22 million.
