Because the demand for chocolate was so great, after returning to his residence in the satellite town with the small group, Chen Yan went straight back to his own time and space.
If I were to go directly to the market to buy so many chocolates, I don’t know how troublesome it would be.
Even if all the supermarket stocks were bought out, it would definitely be far less than the demand of 62 tons!
What's more, the chocolate that Kahn Company needs is pure chocolate made from cocoa butter, and it does not need industrial waste made from cocoa butter substitutes.
He can't just go to every supermarket and buy things one by one, right?
How much time and energy would that take?
When the quantity is so large, the most convenient approach is to purchase directly from the chocolate manufacturer.
However, Chen Yan himself did not know the chocolate manufacturer. If he looked for the official contact information to express his intention to purchase in large quantities, the official would probably ignore him.
This will generally be directly handed over to the general agent, and the official is only responsible for supplying large customers.
Therefore, Chen Yan planned to continue to hand over this task to Chu Yinyin!
Anyway, with Chu Yinyin's connections and background, she can handle these things with ease.
Such a useful partner, it would be a shame not to make use of it.
He called Chu Yinyin directly. After the call was connected, Chen Yan first pretended to ask about the current progress of the company's investment.
After learning that it had reached the final stage and that Chen Yan would need to go to Beijing specifically for confirmation and sign the corresponding share transfer agreement with the higher-ups as the actual holder of the company, Chen Yan immediately started talking about the chocolate.
When Chu Yinyin heard that Chen Yan planned to purchase more than 60 tons of chocolate, she was shocked.
In her entire life, she had never heard of someone buying chocolate by the ton! This was truly rare.
"What do you want to do? Over 60 tons of chocolate? Do you have any idea what that means? Money is easy to talk about. With so much chocolate, we can just buy it directly from the manufacturer. Calculated at the factory price, it would only cost a few million. Anyway, the company's current revenue capacity is very strong, so a few million is nothing. But the question is, what are you going to do with all that chocolate?"
Chu Yinyin asked in surprise.
"Well, my technical team has a huge demand for chocolate. They're so large, and they have to eat a lot of chocolate every day to replenish it. The key is, as you know, their location needs to be kept secret, so procuring supplies is quite troublesome.
I can't always go out and buy a bunch of chocolates and give them to them every day. I don't have that much time. So, I might as well just buy enough for them to last a lifetime. The extra ones can be put in the freezer anyway, so they won't go bad.
Chen Yan gave a few explanations full of nonsense.
Chu Yinyin found it incredible.
She couldn't understand Chen Yan's outrageous logic.
But since Chen Yan had already given an explanation and it was not a troublesome matter, Chu Yinyin did not ask any more questions.
After confirming with Chen Yan the type of chocolate he needed, he hung up the phone.
Previously, according to Chen Yan's request, the "Boundless Dimension" company rented a large warehouse in the suburbs of Qindao City.
Although Chu Yinyin didn't understand why a high-tech company that developed an artificial intelligence platform needed a huge warehouse.
But this was Chen Yan's request, so she had no choice but to do it.
After the warehouse was rented, it has been vacant until now. Although the rental fee is just a drop in the bucket compared to the current revenue scale of "Boundless Dimension" company, Chu Yinyin still feels uncomfortable about throwing money away.
But the result is good... This time, the large-scale purchase of chocolate directly used the warehouse...
For a moment, a rather absurd idea appeared in Chu Yinyin's mind.
Could it be that this chocolate purchase is just the beginning?
Maybe she'll have to help Chen Yan buy all sorts of weird things from now on?! Just like those medicinal herbs before?
Otherwise...why would Chen Yan have to rent such a large warehouse?
But the problem is... she's the CEO of a high-tech company! How could she continue like this and become a logistics and purchasing manager?
Chen Yan didn't know that Chu Yinyin was doubting her life. After hanging up the phone, he just felt that being a hands-off boss was really great.
There is no need for me to do anything directly. If I need anything, I can just make a phone call and Chu Yinyin will take care of everything.
When I first started the company, the decision to bring Chu Yinyin in was really a wise one!
Just as Chen Yan was feeling good about himself and giving himself a thumbs up, his cell phone suddenly rang.
I looked at the number and found that it was Liu Xiaolu calling, and I couldn't help feeling a little confused.
After answering the phone, Chen Yan asked with a smile: "What's wrong, sister? Do you miss me? Didn't you say yesterday that it was enough and you wouldn't miss me for at least a week?"
"Don't talk nonsense! I'm calling you to see if you're home! Community officials are here to check if there are any aging issues with the natural gas pipeline. If you're not home, I can't bring them to your house, right?"
Liu Xiaolu's voice came from the receiver.
His tone was a little awkward, obviously because there were other people around, and he was afraid that Chen Yan's blunt way of speaking would be heard by outsiders.
"Check the natural gas pipeline? Is our natural gas pipeline substandard?"
"It's not that it's substandard, but the materials might not be that solid. After all, this is a building that the village raised money to build, which was considered a policy loophole at the time. Plus, the house is over 20 years old, and many of the materials used back then have started to have problems. So it's normal for the community to send people to investigate for safety hazards."
Liu Xiaolu explained simply.
Chen Yan didn't doubt him and agreed without hesitation: "Then come over, I'm at home."
After hanging up the phone, Chen Yan changed his clothes and put all the things related to his home and the wasteland world into his portable warehouse.
In fact, he kept most of the things in the wasteland world in his portable warehouse, with only some spare clothes or gadgets that he might casually throw on the bed in the bedroom.
Generally speaking, there is no problem, but since outsiders are coming into your home, it is better to be careful.
Soon, in less than five minutes, there was a knock on the door.
As the landlord, Liu Xiaolu certainly has the key.
But every time she came, Liu Xiaolu would knock on the door instead of using the key to open it directly. This was the proper respect for Chen Yan's personal privacy.
Hearing the knock on the door, Chen Yan walked forward and opened the door, then saw Liu Xiaolu and a middle-aged man and woman standing outside.
