Seeing this, Xu Le wasn't about to be outdone, so she picked out a close-up photo of herself and handed it to the little boy: "This is me!"

The two children eagerly stuffed their photos into the little boy's hands, quickly filling his hands to the brim.

"Have you eaten yet? Would you like to come to the restaurant for a bite to eat? Let me know what you'd like to eat, and I'll have the chef make it for you," Xu An said politely.

"No, no, we ate before we came." The couple waved their hands repeatedly. "We went to the village to look for you, but the villagers said you were still in the shop at this time, so we came directly to the shop. We hope we didn't disturb you."

"No, no."

Xu An exchanged a few more pleasantries with the two men, and seeing the man's keen interest in the fast food restaurant, he showed them around the three shops.

While touring the second store, the man asked with some curiosity, "Is this store not open to the public?"

“Yes, this shop is specifically used for processing ingredients, cooking, and cleaning,” Xu An nodded.

"Then you might not have enough space for two stores."

Um?

Xu An glanced back at the man, whose face showed no unusual expression, seemingly just sighing.

Did I misunderstand?

Just as Xu An was wondering if he was overthinking things, the man stepped forward, leaned close to Xu An's ear, and whispered, "It's confirmed. It will be announced tomorrow, and distribution will begin the day after tomorrow."

The administrative office of Shengli Supermarket.

At the last meeting, Lu Shengnan was tasked with resolving the contract between Shengli Supermarket and the farmers.

After the meeting, Lu Shengnan was summoned to the office and, in a de facto demotion, became the general manager of Shengli Supermarket. Her task was not only to resolve the farmers' contract issues but also to revive Shengli Supermarket.

After receiving the task, she spent two days sorting out the whole process. The preliminary research and everything else were in accordance with the procedures and there were no problems.

The only problem was that Shengli Supermarket was exposed for food safety issues, which caused the supermarket's business to plummet.

There are other supermarkets nearby with similar product ranges and prices. Given the same needs, customers are more willing to patronize other supermarkets that do not have safety issues.

In Lu Shengnan's view, terminating the cooperation with the farmers was a very foolish thing to do.

If the contract had not been terminated, the conflict between the two parties would not have been captured in the documentary. Whether Shengli Supermarket closes down or continues to operate, it will not affect Qiansheng Group.

In this situation, forcibly terminating the contract would require a large sum of money in compensation according to procedure.

Since a large sum of money is going to be spent either way, why not continue the cooperation?

Lu Shengnan picked up another report, which was a survey on the quality of vegetables and fruits produced in greenhouses in Qianhai Town. The report stated that the quality of the vegetables and fruits was on average 5% to 10% better than those on the market, and some vegetables were even of better quality than those grown at the planting bases under Qiansheng Group.

Why cancel the cooperation if the greenhouses in Qianhai Town can produce such high-quality crops?

We need to not only cooperate, but cooperate extensively!

The vegetables grown in these greenhouses were the key to Shengli Supermarket's turnaround!

"He Ran, contact the local TV station in Shanghai and tell them I have a news story about Shengli Supermarket and greenhouse farmers. Ask them if they're interested. Remember to be polite and respectful; we're the ones asking them for help!"

There was a mistake in the accounting yesterday. I only realized it after being pointed out that Xu's Fast Food Restaurant could pay Liu Daxi's team's salaries. After correcting it, I've now included Liu Daxi's entire team.
