16: This time it's coming

Qian Ziyong snatched the contract Liu Gaoda was holding down: "Get lost! I, Qian Ziyong, never earn money I shouldn't!"

"Manager Zhu, take the contract back and change it to five million a year!"

Hearing Qian Ziyong's words, Manager Zhu had no choice but to take the contract.

Liu Gaoda looked at the contract in Manager Zhu's hand, still very unwilling.

That was three million! Just wasted like that!

"Alright," Qian Ziyong patted Liu Gaoda's shoulder and said, "Let's not discuss this matter anymore. Now, let's talk about how to open the new supermarket!"

Speaking of the new supermarket, Liu Gaoda remembered, why did Feihuang Supermarket, which was doing so well, close down?

"Ziyong, why did you decide to close Feihuang Supermarket?" Liu Gaoda asked with a heavy heart.

Qian Ziyong said righteously, "I can't stand Mr. Zhao."

"I, Qian Ziyong, have always been upright and never bow down to anyone. If Mr. Zhao dares to take advantage of the situation, then I naturally have to move out!"

Li Lian shook his head: "Laodi, you were impulsive!"

Qian Ziyong shrugged: "If a young man isn't impulsive, is he still a young man?"

"My goal, Qian Ziyong, is to build the biggest supermarket in Han City. This supermarket clearly can't satisfy me, so it's good that it closed."

"Only by closing it can I focus my energy on big things!"

Li Lian looked at Qian Ziyong curiously: "Are you so confident about the new supermarket?"

He couldn't quite understand Qian Ziyong.

When Qian Ziyong first took over the supermarket, he thought Qian Ziyong would definitely lose money.

But unexpectedly, the money Qian Ziyong earned was completely beyond his imagination.

He earned forty million in two months.

That was four times more than what he had earned in eight years combined.

Now Qian Ziyong wanted to close this supermarket and open a new one; he still didn't understand.

However, he didn't dare to object to Qian Ziyong anymore.

Who knew what kind of surprises Qian Ziyong would bring him next?

"Of course!" Qian Ziyong nodded heavily, full of confidence in himself.

He was confident, not about the supermarket making money, but about it losing money.

Directly opposite Yongnian Supermarket, with such a disastrous start, how could it not lose money?

Even Manager Zhu said it would definitely lose money there, and Li Lian clearly didn't think highly of the new supermarket, which meant this was a sure thing; he was bound to lose money!

Fifty million!

As long as he lost all the money in three months, he could earn fifty million!

Qian Ziyong looked up at Li Lian: "Brother, do you also think I'll lose miserably if I open Feihuang Supermarket directly opposite Yongnian Supermarket?"

Li Lian nodded: "Based on my many years of experience, there's no possibility of defeating Yongnian Supermarket!"

Qian Ziyong's face immediately broke into a brilliant smile: "That's good!"

"Then let's discuss how this supermarket should be run!"

Liu Gaoda, standing beside them, scratched his head.

As a recently graduated college student, he knew nothing about running a supermarket.

But he always felt something was off.

However, Qian Ziyong was the boss and had very successful experience, so listening to him should be right.

Liu Gaoda unconditionally trusted his brother, but... it was a pity to just throw away a supermarket that made twenty million a month.

At this moment, Qian Ziyong spoke: "For the new supermarket, I plan to follow Brother Li's guidance!"

"Huh?" Li Lian was stunned.

Manager Zhu and Liu Gaoda were also a bit dumbfounded.

"Manager Zhu, do you still remember Li Lian's guidance from two months ago?" Qian Ziyong looked at Manager Zhu.

Manager Zhu nodded: "I remember, the renovation should be good, there shouldn't be too many employees, and prices must not be too cheap."

"Then you told me to do the opposite... and then..."

Manager Zhu didn't continue.

After all, doing the opposite had made a lot of money, wouldn't that be slapping Li Lian in the face?

Qian Ziyong nodded and said, "This time, we won't do the opposite; we'll do it correctly!"

"Our renovation must be good. I plan to invest fifty million in renovation!"

"Fifty million!" All three exclaimed!

Qian Ziyong rubbed his head: "Is fifty million for renovation a lot?"

All three looked at Li Lian.

Li Lian used to be a supermarket owner, operating a five-thousand-square-meter store.

He had renovated before and knew how much it cost to renovate a supermarket.

Li Lian said with a wry smile: "I only spent two million on renovation back then!"

"Brother Qian, do you know the selling price of the shop where you rented the space?"

"How much?" Qian Ziyong was curious.

The average price of shops in Han City should be over ten thousand.

And that location was in the center of Han City, so shop prices must be very high.

Li Lian said: "Twenty thousand per square meter!"

"Because it's a basement, the price is half cheaper than shops above ground, ten thousand per square meter."

"Fifty million is enough to buy the supermarket directly!"

"That's good!" Qian Ziyong nodded in satisfaction: "I like to do things to the best of my ability, so we'll spend fifty million on renovation!"

"Now, for the second point, not too many staff!"

"I think we can have more people. After all, we've spent so much on renovation, so let's not skimp on staff. We won't save much anyway."

"I've decided, the supermarket staff will double, recruiting a thousand people. Liu Gaoda, you will be in charge of recruiting new employees!"

"The salary will be six thousand a month, working six hours a day, five days a week!"

"This way, including rotation, about four hundred employees will be on duty at any given time for one position."

Qian Ziyong was calculating rapidly in his mind.

A thousand employees, six thousand a month, plus social insurance and housing fund, the cost would be at least seven thousand.

Seven thousand multiplied by a thousand employees, then multiplied by three months, that would be twenty-one million!

That alone was over twenty million.

Add in n+1 compensation, and that's tens of millions more going out.

Plus the fifty million spent on renovation.

Three months later, the supermarket would close down, all unsold goods would be returned, and it would declare bankruptcy.

The money in his hand should be just about right.

Perfect!

"I'm in charge of recruitment?" Liu Gaoda was ecstatic.

He loved doing recruitment work!

Qian Ziyong entrusted him with such an important task; this showed Qian Ziyong's trust in him!

He must do a good job!

Qian Ziyong patted Liu Gaoda's shoulder: "I trust you!"

Liu Gaoda nodded heavily: "I will definitely not let down your trust!"

Looking at Liu Gaoda's naive eyes, Qian Ziyong was completely at ease.

He knew his own business.

He knew Liu Gaoda's ability, which was mediocre.

Letting him be the supermarket's recruitment officer would definitely bring in all sorts of disorganized people.

The supermarket closing down was even more certain!

Qian Ziyong had already arranged all the tasks, so Li Lian and Manager Zhu found it hard to voice their objections.

Qian Ziyong continued: "As for the supermarket product prices..."

Manager Zhu interjected: "Boss, the supermarket product prices should definitely be as low as possible. Let's continue to operate as a wholesale supermarket!"

"This way, most of our old customers should patronize us, and the supermarket's business will definitely not be bad!"

"We'll continue to be a wholesale supermarket, competing with Yongnian Supermarket through differentiation!"

"Maybe we really have a chance to defeat Yongnian Supermarket!"

Still running a wholesale supermarket?

Differentiated competition?

Making money?

Old customers?

Hearing these words, Qian Ziyong's heart pounded in fear.

"Absolutely not!" Qian Ziyong said resolutely, "Our product prices will be the same as Yongnian Supermarket!"
