Guo Fengsheng wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
"Brother Feng has such a broad vision."
It can be said that every step from here on out is interconnected. Once the store is open, Tianfu Cola will most likely be able to reach an agreement.
Once the deal with Tianfu Cola is finalized, Wallace in Zhongzhou Province will no longer need to worry about cola supplies.
The ingredients for the fried chicken are guaranteed by the meat processing plant.
In the field of cola, there is a production line for Tianfu Cola.
Once Lin Yifeng succeeds, Wallace will basically not need to worry about supply chain issues within Zhongzhou Province, and they can expand at will without any concerns.
"Brother Feng, should I go to Shangdu too?"
Guo Fengsheng volunteered to fight, but Lin Yifeng shook his head repeatedly.
"Old Guo, please help stabilize the market here. You have other things to do at the end of the month."
"By the way, Qingyi, please inform Lin Cuilan and tell her to hurry up and select and train people."
"We'll be very busy this month."
Xu Qingyi nodded and left the house with Gangzi.
After arranging everything, Lin Yifeng returned to Stone Village with peace of mind.
The next day, after exiting the Shangdu Expressway toll station, Gangzi and Xu Qingyi parked their van on the side of the road and relieved themselves in the bushes while smoking cigarettes.
Gangzi squinted and asked Xu Qingyi in a soft voice.
"Old Xu, why did Brother Feng suddenly decide to do business in Shangdu this time?"
"This trip is probably going to be troublesome."
Xu Qingyi shivered twice, pulled up her pants, and complained to Gangzi.
"Stop talking."
"Brother Guo is still helping to inquire."
"We've arrived today, let's head to the train station first."
"I remember that shops near the train station were really hard to sell..."
Thinking about this, Xu Qingyi felt a headache coming on.
Putting aside everything else, Shangdu's geographical location alone makes it a vital transportation hub in the Central Plains region.
No matter where people from all over the country are traveling, they will all pass through this place.
The train station here is arguably the busiest place in terms of passenger traffic, and the surrounding businesses are all making a fortune. Who would want to give up such a prime location?
Last year, Xu Qingyi and Guo Fengsheng traveled around Shanyang City and suffered a lot when choosing a location.
The area around the train station, in particular, was the place that gave Xu Qingyi the biggest headache.
Thinking of this, Xu Qingyi also let out a helpless sigh.
Before long, the two of them drove and asked for directions, and finally arrived at the Shangdu train station.
It was a bright, sunny day, and the sound of train whistles could be heard from time to time inside the train station, while announcements on the surrounding loudspeakers continuously introduced the train schedules.
In the square in front of the train station, many farmers carrying burlap sacks squeezed into the train in batches. Around them, many vendors carried styrofoam boxes, selling cold drinks and other beverages.
It's fair to say that business opportunities abound here, and even the noodle shops nearby are packed with people.
Some customers even squatted down at the doorway with their bowls in hand, eating without caring at all about the stares of those around them.
Here, it seems everyone is busy with their own things, and no one cares about what's happening around them.
Gangzi looked around at the packed shops and scratched his head in frustration.
"Where do we even begin?"
Xu Qingyi was also dumbfounded when she saw this scene.
There were many people at Shanyangcheng Railway Station at that time, but not nearly as many as this.
The sheer number of people in Shangdu goes beyond just being numerous. If you go up to a high place and look down, all you see are a sea of dark heads, and you can't even make out what they look like.
The two spent an hour just lingering at the entrance, unable to find an opportunity to communicate with the merchants.
The two of them had no other choice but to wait until lunchtime was over and then look for an opportunity in the afternoon.
In the afternoon, Xu Qingyi and Gangzi witnessed something even more terrifying.
It was 3 p.m., which would be a great time for some shopkeepers in other cities in Zhongzhou Province to take a nap. But here, the chefs on shift were smoking cigarettes and looking exhausted.
The surrounding noodle shops, porridge and pancake shops, and other fast food restaurants, big and small, were still packed with customers.
Many customers who got off the train at the station rushed here to have a meal.
Some restaurants have become so greedy for money that they have their staff carrying styrofoam boxes and various lunchboxes, running back and forth between the iron fences around the train station and during mealtimes.
As soon as the train stopped, this group of people stood by the fence with styrofoam boxes, hawking their lunchboxes to customers who were making a brief stop on the train.
Xu Qingyi gasped as she looked at the scene before her.
Gangzi muttered his complaints under his breath.
"My goodness, are these people crazy for money?"
This situation continued until 11 p.m. before it improved slightly, with the streets becoming much emptier and fewer people getting off the bus.
The restaurants were already packing up and preparing to close, and the owner sat behind the bar calculating the profits.
The staff who stayed on duty at the store prepared bento boxes for the evening and sold them to travelers who stayed overnight.
These bosses wish they could make money 25 hours a day, even though there are only 24 hours in a day.
Xu Qingyi led Gangzi into a small restaurant that was fairly well-equipped.
As soon as I entered, the owner, who was wearing a gold ring and counting money, flashed two rows of big yellow teeth and warmly greeted me.
"Hey, you two guys."
"Are you eating?"
"The stove in the back isn't on right now, so all we have left are boxed meals. Would you like one?"
Xu Qingyi nodded, and he and Gangzi each ordered a boxed lunch.
