Counterflow 92: Ditching the School Flower at the Start and Building a Trillion Empire

In his previous life, Lin Yifeng was tricked by his first love into going abroad, missing the period of rapid development in his homeland.

He finally managed to amass a fortune of hundreds of...

Chapter 287 The Last Month of the Year

"Brother Feng, recently some businesses have also expressed interest in joining Pang Donglai Supermarket."

"Look..."

Lin Yifeng closed the financial statistics report and turned to give Donglai some instructions.

"You can place the order yourself, but you must strictly control the quality of the goods."

Donglai nodded, starting to consider which merchants would be suitable to join.

Lin Yifeng, meanwhile, stared thoughtfully at the calendar on the table.

A moment later, he called out to Donglai.

“From the East”.

"What do you think about opening on November 30th?"

Donglai was clearly surprised to hear this news.

He was stunned for a while before he came to his senses.

"Brother Feng, are we opening for business?"

Lin Yifeng nodded.

The reason for choosing November 30th was that it was just a few days after he received the commendation from Makino City.

Seize this opportunity to open your business now; it's even better if you can generate a lot of buzz.

After all, on that day, almost everyone in Muye City knew that Pang Donglai was Lin Yifeng's business, so they could take advantage of the celebrity effect.

"Okay, Brother Feng."

"I'll arrange it right away."

Overjoyed, Donglai didn't give Lin Yifeng a chance to arrange anything else before rushing off to inform the others.

When Donglai returned to the office, Lin Yifeng gave him a slight scolding for his anxious attitude and also arranged some opening activities for him.

Pang Donglai operates on a low-profit, high-volume model, so its promotional activities cannot be too large.

Lin Yifeng simply organized a lottery event that later became quite famous, where customers could win prizes based on their receipts. The prizes, besides the top prize of a refrigerator and a color TV, included shopping cards from Pang Donglai and daily necessities.

Lin Yifeng also asked Donglai to discuss these professional calculations with the finance department.

He was preparing to receive the commendation in the next few days.

...

With the arrival of the last week of November, the publicity surrounding Pang Donglai's grand opening has been fully rolled out.

On Monday, Lin Yifeng arrived at the central conference hall of Makino City, dressed in a custom-made Zhongshan suit.

Here, Lin Yifeng followed Yan Bingshan, who was dressed in a police uniform, and Ye Wuzheng to get acquainted with people everywhere.

Yan Bingshan's eyes lit up when he saw Lin Yifeng wearing a Zhongshan suit.

"Okay, okay."

"This outfit is good, clean and neat."

"Decent!"

After praising him three times in a row, Yan Bingshan led Lin Yifeng to walk around the other tables.

With Yan Bingshan's introduction, Lin Yifeng met with leaders of many important departments in Muye City.

Everyone smiled and praised Lin Yifeng when they saw him.

"Good lad, you truly deserve to be called an outstanding youth of our Makino City."

"Yes, the younger generation is truly formidable."

Keep up the good work!

However, this time Yan Bingshan only introduced Lin Yifeng to everyone and let them know that Lin Yifeng was one of his men; that was all.

When it came time to announce the awards, Lin Yifeng was naturally the last to appear.

As the host introduced Lin Yifeng's various identities, gasps of surprise rippled through the audience.

It seems that many people from various departments present did not expect that the owners behind Wallace, Mixue Ice Cream, and Pang Donglai, which have risen to prominence in Makino City, are so young.

The main issue is that compared to Lin Yifeng, this group of "outstanding young people" is clearly overshadowed.

Most of the other nine outstanding young people are relatives of local or out-of-town officials, and they are just there to make a formality.

No one expected that Lin Yifeng would emerge from among them and overpower all the others.

After a warm handshake with the mayor, Lin Yifeng walked off the stage with the certificate.

Ye Wuzheng was also lowering his voice to complain to Lin Yifeng.

"You're going to suffer when we go out later."

Thinking of this, Lin Yifeng gave a wry smile.

Having won this award, he was well-prepared.

As Lin Yifeng had predicted, when he left the meeting, leaders from all departments, big and small, in Muye City came to him to try and get close to him, hoping to "get to know" him.

Fortunately, with Yan Bingshan helping to cover for him, Lin Yifeng wasn't entangled with this group for too long.

Half an hour later, Lin Yifeng, covered in sweat, sat in the passenger seat of Ye Wuzheng's car, unbuttoned his Zhongshan suit, and gulped down two mouthfuls of mineral water.

Ye Wuzheng, who was waiting for Lin Yifeng in the car, also joked with a smile.

"I was the same way last year."

"You're in for a lot of trouble next."

When Ye Wuzheng was selected as an outstanding young person last year, he couldn't sleep well for half a month.

Basically, when I open my eyes, I hear some random leader asking me to have dinner; when I close my eyes, I'm asleep all day.

This kind of life lasted for two whole weeks, during which Ye Wuzheng visited every department, big and small, in Muye City and built up good relationships with them.

Lin Yifeng's identity this time is unusual; he doesn't come from the system. In the eyes of these people who are crazy about political achievements, he is definitely a hot commodity.

He will encounter twice as many people as Ye Wuzheng did back then.

Lin Yifeng leaned back in the passenger seat and grinned mischievously.

"It's okay, I'll take you with me when I go out to eat next time."

Ye Wuzheng shuddered and shouted loudly from the side.

"Brother-in-law! You can't repay kindness with enmity!"

"I'd rather go to the arcade and play a couple more rounds of Street Fighter than go to dinner with you!"

"Don't mess with me, brother-in-law!"

Lin Yifeng smiled but didn't say anything.

That evening, the local television station in Makino City broadcast the awards ceremony for outstanding young people.

Lin Yifeng and the "Fat Donglai" signboard instantly became famous throughout Muye City.
