American Fortune Life

"More than half of the world's cashews have been bought by Costco.

Costco deliberately lost money selling hot dogs, driving customers to buy other high-margin products. The hot dog + soda package has been maintained at US $ 1.5 in the United States for more than 20 years. . .

Costco's photo development department has a daily processing volume of up to 2 million. . .

Costco sells goods, in addition to food, clothing, living, and other necessities, even coffins, ashes, etc., and even pet ashes. . .

In order to save transportation costs, Costco changed the nut jars from round to square, which saved about 400 trucks per year, with amazing results.

Costco's boutique route takes about 100,000 items on shelves that are different from those of competitors Wal-Mart, while Costco only has about 4,000 items.

Although Costco is mostly a hypermarket, diamonds are also sold. In 2007 alone, the total cost of diamonds sold by Costco worldwide reached 100,000 carats. . .

The most fascinating aspect of Costco is its small profits but quick turnover. Generally, supermarkets and department stores will make 25% to 50% of their profits, while Costco will only increase it by 15%, and it will be 30% cheaper.

Although Costco uses an annual membership system, about 90% of the 40 million members worldwide are willing to renew their contracts.

Costco's employee benefits are very good, it can retain talent, and it is also the most loved company in the United States. . . "

At dusk, Andy, who was comfortably lying on a Maybach aviation seat, watched the secrets of Costco's deep management strategy sent to him by the think tank in his mobile phone.

After reading, Andy more firmly confirmed his acquisition decision, locked the screen phone, looked at the Manhattan street view with a deep understanding, and said to himself: "Such a super 13 supermarket, of course, should belong to my Andy Smith. ! "

"Boss, there is a traffic jam ahead. I'm afraid we need to wait a bit."

At this moment, Martin on the first officer reached out and pressed the headset in his ear. He looked back with helpless expression and reported to Andy Hui.

"What happened?" Andy has long been used to New York's traffic congestion, which is why, if he can, he usually chooses to fly by helicopter.

"Today there may be a hanging day in Manhattan, so the streets ahead are full of cars and people."

"Ha ~" Andy chuckled and said, "Let's go and see."

Having said that, Andy didn't wait for Martin to get out of the car to open the door for him. He opened the door directly and walked out of the car. However, he made a sudden decision. And use the headset to inform the bodyguards on the front and rear guards to get off.

Watching as the enemy's bodyguards surrounded him, Andy brought his sunglasses on, and looked curiously at the many pedestrians who were rushing to the intersection to notice this side, and couldn't help but clap his hands and cling to him. In front of Martin's shoulder, he said indifferently, "It's all right, let's go and look ahead."

"Manhattan Suspension Day" is an iconic sight of New York City that appears twice a year. It refers to the dramatic picture of the sun just above the east-west streets of Manhattan at sunset, seemingly hanging between high-rise buildings on both sides. When "Manhattan Hanging Sun" appeared, every east-west street in Manhattan was bathed in the sunset.

When Andy and his party came to the street in the curiosity of the surrounding pedestrians, they just caught up with the overhanging day, and Jin Chanchan's sunlight was dyed everything. The appearance of this beautiful scene immediately caused an exclamation in the crowd.

Although this is not the first time that Andy has seen the hanging sky in Manhattan, he will still be attracted by seeing the marvelous landscape composed of nature and modern architecture again. He pushes his sunglasses over his head and takes out his mobile phone to start shooting this mysterious and yet Spectacular sight.

Standing in the middle of the street and looking into the distance, as if the sun was hanging at the end of the street.

"Omg! It's Andy Smith ..."

"Oh my God, it's him, he's watching the hanging sun ..."

Ten minutes later, the suspension day slowly fell. When Andy looked down to check his shooting situation, he heard the exclamation of two women not far away, and he couldn't help looking up, and was just excited with a few cheeks. The girl who looked at her couldn't help showing a bright sunny smile. First, she raised her hand and waved a greeting, then put her finger on her mouth, signaled a gesture of silence, and put on her glasses. A dozen people's guards quickly turned around and returned to the same path.

"Ah-he waved at me, he was so handsome ..."

"Yeah yeah..."

"Damn, we should find his signature ..."

. . . . . .

Looking at the back that was left by a group of bodyguards, a group of excited and exclaimed girls started to get annoyed again. As the youngest richest person in the world, almost every American girl regarded him as the best date candidate, dreaming of being with him. Come for a chance encounter and spend a romantic evening.

This is why, Ivana ’s status among American women has always been in a very awkward position. Some are sought after, but more is envy, envy and hatred. Although her ins and Facebook have a high degree of attention, the comment area It is almost a Shura field.

When Andy walked into the house, she saw that she would put on the most comfortable silk pajamas, and her hair would be rolled up casually. Ivana, who was lazy, would lie on the sofa casually, although her belly was a little scary, but But can't help Dachang tui still so you.

"Dear, sit down, don't get up ..."

When I saw Andy coming back, Ivana, with a happy and smiling face, had some difficulties trying to stand up, and Andy hurried forward to stop him, and then sat next to her, kissed her and caressed her. Her big belly laughed softly: "How do you feel?"

"Everything is fine, nothing, but it's getting more and more inconvenient." Ivana smiled sweetly and showed her white shell teeth, stretched out her hand and stroked her ears against her pregnant belly to listen to the movement of the fetus. With a kind and happy expression.

"You can let him / her come out for a week, and then you can be relieved." Andy raised his head, looked at Ivana with a tender look on his face, and stretched out his hands to caress her playful face with a more rounded run. , And said with some emotion: "Dear, thank you, for everything that my child and I have endured."

Ivana looked at Andy with tender eyes, and reached out and stroked Andy's cheek, saying gently, "I love you."

"I love you too!" Andy said, Andy bowed forward, carefully took Ivana into his arms, and quietly enjoyed the tender moments of the two.

The next morning, Andy, wearing a tank top and shorts, carefully helped Ivana stroll through the manor's garden.

"It's really sad, even if mj dies, he can't get peace ..."

Ivana had a big belly, her hands around her waist, and was carefully supported by Andy, slowly moving her steps, with a pitying expression on her face, and feeling some reports about Michael's body and heritage in the newspaper this morning.

"In the age of entertainment to death, everyone is an event participant, topic carrier, topic maker, topic communicator, and melon-eating audience. They are constantly pushing the topic to continue to be hot. As long as the news is hot, this topic Will continue to continue, as for the dignity of the deceased, this is not considered by people. "Andy said with a smile, he did not want to affect Ivana's mood because of these things, using a larger topic to Turn her eyes away.

"Indeed," Ivana nodded, and shook her head slightly, smirking. "It's like we haven't born a picture of a baby. Now it has been fired by those media to 10 million."

"Hehe, since there are injustices who are willing to spend this money, we will satisfy them. If we really spend 10 million to buy photos, we will set up a charity fund for our children for those newborns who are in trouble and those who have just given birth. Mothers provide nutritional assistance, what do you say? "Andy offered with a smile.

Ivana first glamorously gave Andy a white glance, beeping red chun, it seemed that she was very cold with this proposal, but after a moment of groaning, she stroked her big belly and said softly, "God will bless the good People, our children are going to live under the spotlight. I'll take care of it myself. "
