Lu Fan instructed Wang Wei:

"Furthermore, we can't rely on acquisitions forever. When those supermarkets can't continue operating, they come to us to take over."

"There are just too many variables involved. Putting aside everything else, if others haven't managed it well, how can we possibly do it well?"

If the location is suitable, there will be no shortage of competing buyers.

Lu Fan really didn't want to slowly develop a location that wasn't in a good spot, waiting for it to take several years to become developed.

Therefore, he planned to send Wang Wei and Zhou Huan to other cities to conduct on-site investigations and research.

“I plan to arrange for the two of you to go and select locations, accumulate experience from scratch, and then open Baiyue in other cities.”

The scale of this project is so large that even Wang Wei thinks Lu Fan is taking a risk.

However, Wang Wei was really eager to give up on this project and didn't want to easily tell Lu Fan to give it up.

After all, she had experienced a series of failures in a short period of time after arriving at the soy sauce factory.

Although the competitor was a leading company like Shengjing, Wang Wei still felt that her performance was really not up to par.

But President Lu never blamed her for this. Not only did he not punish her, but he would even offer her comfort and encouragement when she repeatedly suffered setbacks and felt that everything was over.

Such a good boss is truly a rare find once you leave this village.

Furthermore, when she accompanied Zhou Huan on business trips, she was the sales manager, but after the chain supermarkets in other cities began to be established...

Having completed this project, how could she possibly worry about not getting a promotion?

Wang Wei increasingly felt that Sun Dehu had done a great service by introducing her to Lu Fan for work, and that she deserved to treat him to a late-night snack of beer and barbecue.

Her thoughts were racing, and her speech slowed down. Before agreeing, she hesitated for a moment and reminded Lu Fan:

"Mr. Lu, the recent frequent bans have already strained our factory's cash flow. Will further expansion tie up our cash reserves?"

Wang Wei's concerns are not without merit.

Not only was she worried, but Lu Qiuyi had also raised this issue before.

After all, the cash flow is the lifeblood of every company.

Lu Fan didn't want Wang Wei to worry unnecessarily, and directly asked, "Have you not been in contact with Sun Dehu recently?"

Wang Wei looked at Lu Fan strangely, wondering why this CEO Lu suddenly brought up her cousin who had been kicked out of the Wang family and forced to take his mother's surname.

But she still obediently shook her head:

"As you know, things at the soy sauce factory have been piling up one after another. I don't have the time to contact relatives."

This was also Wang Wei's way of showing her loyalty; she dared not let Lu Fan think that she was used to using petty tricks and was working under him while also building her own little power base.

She was telling the truth; she had been in more contact with her uncle, Wang Mingtang, who worked for the municipal government recently.

Although Sun Dehu was also a confidant of President Lu, he was far away in Jinghai City and had heard more about the business in Nanshan than experienced it firsthand.

So, many things Wang Wei told him were of no use. But to her surprise, Lu Fan just smiled nonchalantly after hearing her words.

"No wonder. If you had been in frequent contact before, you would have known long ago that he had added a lot of money to my bank card again."

Now, Sun Dehu has not only taken over the responsibilities of the construction group from General Manager Li, but also Lu Fan.

They were also managing the stock market for him.

So Lu Fan still has several hundred million yuan lying untouched in his account.

We've been waiting for this day.

When Wang Wei heard that her cousin had helped President Lu invest in stocks and had even multiplied his initial investment of 100 million yuan several times over, her eyes immediately lit up with the glitter of gold coins.

You know, she used to think of all these stock traders as gamblers, believing they all relied on luck and were always getting fleeced by those Wall Street bigwigs.

Unexpectedly, even the shrewd and capable CEO Lu trusted her cousin.

Wang Wei felt that after returning home, she should calm down and consider whether she should also give her cousin some money.

Earning hundreds of millions is unnecessary; Wang Wei feels that being able to buy a few bags a year is already quite good.

Knowing that Lu Fan would continue to invest in the project, Wang Wei finally felt relieved and said she would take the initiative to contact Zhou Huan.

"We will complete the next development plan you set out for, Mr. Lu, as soon as possible."

Lu Fan nodded, indicating that he had never doubted Wang Wei's abilities.

These words deeply moved Wang Wei, a strong woman. As a family member, she knew her own situation best; after joining the company, she felt she hadn't had any particularly outstanding achievements.

So she always felt a little guilty when facing Lu Fan, but now that Lu Fan praised her so directly to her face, she was overjoyed and filled with pride.

And he was determined to produce more tangible results to show President Lu, so that he would know that he had not promoted the wrong person.

Watching Wang Wei walk out with her head held high to talk to Zhou Huan, Lu Fan shook his head, amused and helpless.

"These people are really..."
