Later, things got chaotic, and Su Wenyue went out to avoid disaster. The Su family had to save themselves and had too many things to deal with, so they didn't pay much attention to the affairs of Chen Li, an unrelated person. But such a person was full of pride and confidence, and had a sense of superiority. Where did this confidence come from? Su Wenyue felt that her guess was almost right.
"I heard that not far from here, someone wants to open a department store, which will also open in a few days. It coincides with our idea. Uncle Fu, are you sure?"
Su Wenyue was talking about Chen Li. She had always sent people to keep an eye on Chen Li, so she got the news when Chen Li had this plan. She felt a little sad in her heart, thinking that although this woman had many shortcomings and was too arrogant and confident, she was someone who could withstand setbacks. Since the last failure, Chen Li was not discouraged. Instead, she quickly adjusted and regrouped, and her momentum was even greater than before.
"Yes, I have heard about it, too. It is not far from here. I was a little worried after hearing about it, and I went there a few times in disguise. Although it is also a department store, the decoration is not as good as ours. It has a weird and indescribable feeling. I also asked someone to go in and investigate. The variety of their goods is not as complete as ours, so it should not pose a threat to us."
As expected of Fulu, he was steady and thoughtful in doing things. Su Wenyue mentioned this matter just to make Fulu be on guard, but she didn't expect that Fulu had already gone to find out the truth.
"Uncle Fu, it's good that you have found out their strengths and weaknesses. However, we cannot take it lightly. I know the man who runs the shop. He is an eclectic person and can always think of many novel ideas. He was like this before, so he quickly emerged in the business world. He is really capable. Even the Su family's business has been affected because of her. We still have to be careful and can't take it lightly because of a temporary advantage." Although Su Wenyue was satisfied with Fulu, she was not complacent. Chen Li had fallen into trouble because of this. Moreover, Chen Li was indeed a difficult person, so she naturally had to be on guard against her.
Fulu's face solemnized when he heard what Su Wenyue said, and he felt a little more recognition and admiration for this young master in his heart. The young master was indeed a good material for business. Although his methods were a little immature because he had just entered the business world, it did not matter with the old guys like them watching him. The important thing was that the young master had a unique and novel vision, a light-hearted mind, and he would not belittle his opponents. He was good at seeing the strengths of his opponents and was not proud and complacent because of a little achievement. These were all very good qualities.
"Don't worry, madam. I know the person who opened this shop. Although some of his ideas are unrealistic, he does have some means. I will be careful and will not take it lightly." Fulu had paid attention to Chen Li when he was in the Su family before. He paid a lot of attention to this woman. Now he knows himself and the enemy. Even if Su Wenyue doesn't remind him, he will act carefully.
"That's good. I was a little worried about Chen Li's methods, but with Uncle Fu's support, I can rest assured. As for the plans I mentioned to Uncle Fu before, please help me think about them. Once the business of the department store stabilizes, we will slowly start the preparations."
Fulu nodded. He had already made an assessment of the plans proposed by Su Wenyue. "I think the plans that Madam has come up with are generally feasible, but they will take time to prepare and we can't rush them. And manpower is also a problem. Although we can find manpower temporarily, the untested and untrained clerks are incapable in all aspects and can be easily bribed. The reason why I was able to get the inside information of that shop so quickly is because I bribed the clerks inside."
"Uncle Fu is thinking about this matter, so I'll leave it to you to follow up. If you need anything, just let me know and I'll do my best." Su Wenyue told him her ideas and plans, and then she became a hands-off boss. Firstly, because of the children, she couldn't devote too much energy to it. The more important thing was that with a loyal and capable subordinate like Fulu, Su Wenyue only needed to come up with ideas and thoughts, and then she could safely retreat to the back and sit back and do nothing.
Su Wenyue is a very self-aware person. She is not good at business methods and socializing, so it is appropriate to hand it over to Fulu, which also shows her trust in Fulu. Although Fulu's loyalty to the Su family is unquestionable and he would never betray her for his father, Su Wenyue does not want Fulu's loyalty to her to be based only on this point. Su Wenyue may not be so proficient in business, but the most important thing her father taught her is to make good use of and win over his subordinates.
Fulu had not expected that the young master would trust him so much and hand over the entire business to him without any suspicion of him. He felt somewhat relieved and touched, and had a sense of belonging. Originally, the master asked him to follow the young lady, but he was not so willing. It was not that he, a servant, wanted to find fault with the master. It was really a waste of talent. Following the young lady, he had no place to display his talents except what an ordinary servant could do. He was grateful for the master's kindness, so he tried his best to help the master, which was the greatest reward for the master.
However, as a servant, one cannot fault the master's decision. Moreover, the master asked him with such earnest words and such a solemn attitude, and he could not refuse, but he felt somewhat depressed. He originally thought that he would follow the master for the rest of his life, or follow the two young masters, but in the end he followed the married lady. However, this also showed the master's love and attention to the lady, and for this reason he would be loyal, but it was a pity that he did not expect that he would have the opportunity to show his strengths in this life.
The plans and ideas that the young lady came up with were refreshing to him. Thinking of the challenges he would face in the future, Fulu did not feel fear or terror, but a feeling of boiling blood. If he could really achieve the vision and ideas proposed by the young lady, his life would be worth it. Although Fulu sold himself to Master Su in order to repay his gratitude and voluntarily became a servant, he still had a man's drive and desire for achievement in his bones. He wanted to achieve something, even if he would not benefit from the achievement in the end.
"Since Madam trusts me so much, I will not refuse. I will do my best and will never let you down!" Fulu said just a few ordinary words, but with seriousness and solemnity, as if he was taking an oath, and also expressed his willingness to follow Su Wenyue loyally in the future. This time he was truly surrendering, simply because of Su Wenyue, and not for anything else.
Su Wenyue was quite satisfied to see Fu Lu like this. She felt that her efforts were not in vain. She nodded and said, "Thank you for your hard work, Uncle Fu."
