Travel back to the 80s to farm

Old Li was surprised. "Going to the city?! And opening a supermarket?!"

Shen Jing raised the corner of his mouth and laughed, "Yes, yes! We can't always be trapped in this small place like Qingshui Town, we have to go to a wider world to show our skills!"

Old Li quickly waved his hands and refused: "No, no, Old Li, I'm old, I don't want to leave home now!"

Shen Jing smiled and asked, "Old Li, don't you want to live a life that is 10 times better than your current one?"

Old Li declined without a second thought: "Anyway, I've lived in Qingshui Town all my life. Now that I'm old, I don't want to leave my hometown again..."

Shen Jing understood what Old Li was thinking. She stopped trying to persuade him and smiled at him, indicating that she respected his decision.

Shen Jing stood up from the small stool and patted his butt: "Okay, since you don't want to, I won't force you, Old Li, I'm going back!"

Old Li slowly rocked the recliner, then uttered a voice from his nose: "Well, all right, Jing girl! Then I won't get up to see you off!"

Shen Jing smiled softly upon hearing this, waved goodbye to Old Li and said, "Well, bye! Have a good rest."

Time passed quickly and it was the next day. Lin Yu got up early and sat at his desk to carefully sort out the meeting minutes that Shen Jing had given him yesterday. After a morning of hard work, he finally sorted out all the information. Not only that, he also listed a detailed implementation plan based on the outline given by Shen Jing.

After completing these tasks, Lin Yu happily took the documents to Shen Jing's office door. He knocked on the door gently, and after getting permission, he pushed the door open and walked in. Looking at Shen Jing who was busy, Lin Yu smiled ingratiatingly and said, "Hey, boss, can you see if I wrote it correctly?" After that, he handed the document in his hand to Shen Jing.

Shen Jing took the document, flipped through it carefully, and nodded from time to time, "Well, not bad, not bad, Lin Yu, you did a good job!" Lin Yu felt very happy to receive Shen Jing's praise.

"However, there are still some details that need to be revised." Shen Jing pointed to a certain part of the document and said, "Here, we need to add some more specific measures."

Lin Yu listened carefully and kept taking notes. Shen Jing looked at the serious Lin Yu and secretly sighed in his heart that this kid was really reliable.

"Okay, that's basically it. You can make some modifications and then show it to everyone. If there are no problems, you can start implementing it." Shen Jing handed the document back to Lin Yu.

"Okay, boss!" Lin Yu took the document and turned to leave. Looking at Lin Yu's back, Shen Jing couldn't help but smile with relief. This young man has a promising future.

So Shen Jing called her old friends and sincerely invited them to come to her place in the next few days to discuss opening a supermarket chain.

Shen Jing called Hua Fengchun first: "Hua Fengchun, this is Shen Jing. Are you busy recently? I have something important to discuss with you. I plan to open a supermarket chain. Are you interested in cooperating with me?"

Hua Fengchun replied: "Shen Jing, I'm not busy recently. Opening a supermarket sounds great, of course I'm interested! We can discuss it in detail."

Then, Shen Jing called Ding Jiandong again: "Ding Jiandong, it's me, Shen Jing. I want to invite you to come to my place to discuss opening a supermarket. What do you think?"

Ding Jiandong said excitedly: "Okay, Shen Jing! I am very interested in this idea. We can plan together and see how to make this supermarket bigger and stronger."

Shen Jing continued to contact Li Shihao: "Li Shihao, it's been a long time since we last contacted each other! I would like to invite you to come to my place to discuss a brand new money-making plan."

Li Shihao readily agreed: "No problem, Shen Jing! I'm happy to discuss it with you."

Then, Shen Jing called Yang Dayou: "Yang Dayou, how are you doing recently? I have a great idea and would like to invite you to come over and discuss it with me."

Yang Dayou answered readily: "Okay, Shen Jing! You have to talk to me when we meet..."

Finally, Shen Jing contacted Tan Weijie: "Tan Weijie, I'm Shen Jing. I'm planning to open a supermarket chain, and I'd like you to help me with some ideas."

Tan Weijie readily agreed: "Sure, Shen Jing! I'd love to participate. We can discuss together how to create a distinctive supermarket chain brand."

All five of them agreed to come to discuss the matter, and Shen Jing was full of anticipation. She believed that everyone's experience and wisdom could make the plan more perfect, and they would work together to achieve their goals.

Time flies, and several days have passed. On this day, Hua Fengchun, Ding Jiandong and five others came to Shen Jing one after another. Shen Jing was overjoyed and greeted them enthusiastically. She specially booked an elegant private room in the restaurant run by Lin Erya, wanting to take this opportunity to host a banquet for these people who came from afar, and at the same time to welcome them.

During this period, Lin Yu was also invited by Shen Jing to attend the banquet together.

At the dinner table, everyone was talking and laughing, and the atmosphere was harmonious. Shen Jing spoke first, "Thank you all for coming. I invited you all here today because I want to discuss the matter of opening a supermarket chain."

It was the first time for Hua Fengchun and the others to hear the word "supermarket". They asked curiously, "Supermarket chain? What is that?"

Shen Jing smiled and explained, "Hey, everyone, let me tell you something. A supermarket is simply a hypermarket. Think about it, when we go to a vegetable market, we can only buy vegetables and meat. But the supermarket I'm talking about is different. It sells everything! Pots and pans, bedding, toilet paper, and other daily necessities, as well as various supplementary foods, etc., everything you can think of!"

Ding Jiandong has a keen business sense and his eyes sparkle: "Then this supermarket has quite a complete range of functions!"

Shen Jing continued, "Yes, and the supermarket chain I plan to open will provide a wider variety of goods and better services. We can open branches in various cities so that more people can enjoy the convenience."

Li Shihao nodded. "This is a good idea, but it's not easy to do it well."

"That's right, so we need everyone to come up with ideas together." Shen Jing looked at everyone, "For example, site selection, procurement, staff recruitment, etc., these all require us to consider carefully."

Hua Fengchun said: "I think we can open a pilot store in Qingshui Town to see how it works."

Ding Jiandong agreed, "If the pilot is successful, we will gradually expand the scale."

Yang Dayou said: "We can also launch some preferential activities to attract customers."

Tan Weijie added: "At the same time, we must also ensure the quality of the goods and the attitude of the service."

Everyone expressed their opinions and the discussion was heated. Lin Yu listened carefully and made some suggestions from time to time. Finally, Shen Jing concluded: "Thank you for your valuable opinions. We will consider them comprehensively. Next, we will work together to run this supermarket chain!"

Tan Weijie asked with a smile: "What name did Boss Shen give to this supermarket chain?"

Shen Jing said cheerfully: "I plan to call it the East China Chain Supermarket!"

Hua Fengchun was indeed sharp-sighted. He said, "Boss Shen, this name is not quite appropriate. If our supermarkets are opened all over the country in the future, it would be a bit inappropriate to just call it the East China Chain..."

Shen Jing listened carefully, smiled, and said, "Well, I didn't think it through. Does anyone have any good names?"

Li Shihao said: "I think it's a good name for the supermarket chain 'Lotus'! 'Lotus' is pronounced the same as 'Lianhua', which means connecting China together! What do you think?"

After hearing this, the others started discussing it and finally agreed to use this name.
