"Feeding the cat with the arowana fish was just a joke of mine, but Wang Cheng actually took it seriously. This guy is either a fool or a cunning villain. Foolish? Cunning?" Huang Ran hesitated.
He was certain that Wang Cheng was a double-edged sword; if used well, he could kill the enemy, but if used poorly, he would harm himself.
"Wang Cheng, you fed six Flowerhorn fish to a cat, how come there are only five photos?"
"The boss said that the first fish was stolen by a cat, and they couldn't find the cat no matter how hard they looked."
"Oh? Haha..."
Huang Ran imagined herself searching the world for cats and couldn't help but burst into laughter.
He laughed and laughed, and the frustration of being used as a stepping stone by Wang Peng and Pei Yuanshan was completely swept away.
Wang Cheng hurriedly smiled ingratiatingly, secretly relieved. He thought he had passed this test and wondered what the benefits would be.
"Alright, you're a clever kid." Huang Ran stopped laughing. "I'll give you two choices: first, be my driver; second..."
"I choose to be the driver, thank you boss," Wang Cheng said hurriedly, bowing ninety degrees.
Huang Ran was taken aback, then said in a deep voice, "The second option is to become the store manager in the grain and oil section, where the salary will be double what it is now."
"Boss, I'll be your driver, I don't even need to pay you," Wang Cheng hurriedly emphasized again.
"Okay." Huang Ran tossed him the car keys. "Go find Lao Liu, have him teach you how to drive, and have him get you a driver's license."
"Thank you for the promotion, boss. Thank you so much, boss," Wang Cheng hurriedly thanked him again.
If the store manager is like a high-ranking official, then the driver is like a personal bodyguard; the bodyguard's career prospects are definitely better.
He walked out of his boss's office and immediately went to the parking lot to find the experienced driver, Liu Nan.
Five days later, he learned to drive and obtained a driver's license through special connections.
On the morning of the sixth day, Huang Ran came to the parking lot to see Wang Cheng washing the car while he was bent over.
He cleaned the Honda Accord, which cost over 400,000 yuan, until it looked brand new, making it a pleasure to look at.
"Master Liu, how's this kid doing?" Huang Ran asked the experienced driver.
"Boss, he's very hardworking and clean; he won't allow even a speck of dust on the vehicle." Master Liu's eyes were full of praise.
"Okay, it's time for you to retire. Go home and enjoy a few years of happiness." Huang Ran patted him on the shoulder.
He is Hu Qing's maternal uncle. He is sixty years old this year and is an old driver who has driven all his life, but he can no longer drive.
"Ah Ran," Master Liu said hesitantly, "I know you're very busy, you should try to spend more time with Xiao Qing."
Huang Ran smiled, "Uncle, when you're in the business world, you really don't have a choice. Don't worry, I'll definitely spend more time with her."
Master Liu nodded hurriedly and added, "And your health too, if it really gets too bad, go to a major hospital in Beijing..."
"Uncle, you've been too talkative!" Huang Ran said in a deep voice.
Master Liu quickly lowered his head, not daring to look at Huang Ran's face, for impotence was indeed a matter of a man's dignity.
"This must not be known to anyone, understand?" Huang Ran's face was flushed, and she stared at him intently.
"I understand! It's all my fault for being so talkative!" Master Liu slapped himself hard across the face.
Huang Ran snorted and strode to the car. "Xiao Cheng, take me to Brothers Tobacco and Liquor Store."
"Okay." Wang Cheng hurriedly opened the back door and used his arm to block the doorway, worried that his boss might bump his head.
After the boss got into the car, he hurriedly closed the door, started the car, and soon arrived at the Brothers Tobacco and Liquor Store.
Colorful ribbons and banners were hung at the entrance of the store, and a drum team was playing gongs and drums, attracting many onlookers.
The Brothers Tobacco and Liquor Store officially opened, and Wang Peng stood at the entrance to greet and see off customers.
An old man held Wang Peng's hand and said, "My child, when your shop was burned down by bad guys, I was almost scared to death."
Wang Peng grasped his hands with both of his and said with a smile, "Oh, you're exaggerating."
The old man shook his head hurriedly, his heart filled with emotion.
“My child, it’s not an exaggeration, not at all. Let me finish.”
“I used to frequently buy counterfeit cigarettes and alcohol, but since I started buying from your store, I haven’t bought a single pack of counterfeit cigarettes or a single bottle of counterfeit alcohol.”
"When I heard that the shop had burned down, I rushed over to see. I'm already old, I'm not afraid of death, I'm just afraid that you won't continue."
"If you quit, where will I buy safe liquor? Selling counterfeit goods means your son will be born without an anus, and you'll get hit by a car as soon as you step outside."
The old man became more and more emotional as he spoke, and in the end, tears streamed down his face.
"Good! The old man's scolding was well done!" Du Lei clapped his hands.
The others also applauded, cheering for the old man's words.
Wang Peng was deeply moved. What is the most simple and unpretentious business strategy? Genuine products at fair prices!
"My child, you'll have to work for me your whole life, at least until I die," the old man said in a deep voice.
"Grandpa, you'll definitely live to be a hundred." Wang Peng beamed and held his hand tightly.
"Now that you're opening today, I feel relieved. I'll go in and support you." The old man reached into his wallet.
"Grandpa, I'll give you a 20% discount today," Wang Peng said with a smile, helping the old man into the tobacco and liquor store.
The old man chose two bottles of Black Three Flowers liquor, two yuan a bottle, and also bought two packs of Wulin brand cigarettes, forty cents a pack.
The total price was four yuan and eighty cents, and with an additional 20% discount, Wang Peng charged the old man three cents and eighty cents before seeing him off outside the store.
At this moment, a farm tricycle stopped by the roadside.
The driver, a middle-aged man, chuckled and said, "Boss Wang, I work at Xinglan Restaurant. The boss asked me to take away fifty boxes of Green Sanhua."
"Okay, I'll arrange it right away." Wang Peng shook hands with him and said with a smile, "Please thank Boss Feng for me, and thank him for his support."
A small truck stopped, and the driver said, "Boss Wang, I heard you're opening today, so I came to show my support."
"So it's Mr. Xu from Huimin Convenience Store. Thank you for your patronage." Wang Peng hurriedly shook my hand and offered me his best cigarettes.
More and more people came, including people from hotels and restaurants, people from convenience stores, and mostly ordinary customers.
People were constantly coming in and out of the store, keeping Du Lei, Li Mingzhu, and others extremely busy.
On the second floor of the warehouse across the street, Pei Yuanshan watched the grand opening with a smile.
"Chairman, you have truly keen insight. Your decision to select Wang Peng as acting chairman, despite the pressure from the board, was a brilliant move," Secretary Wu said with a smile.
Jiang Letian hurriedly said, "Chairman, I underestimated Wang Peng's reputation. It seems he really can save our business in the provincial capital."
Pei Yuanshan smiled slightly, "I also underestimated him. I admit that I had a gambling mentality at the time."
He was in a good mood today, chatting and laughing with his two assistants.
Wang Zhen stood at the very back, staring at the beaming Wang Peng, his heart filled with hatred that seemed endless.
Downstairs in the warehouse, inside an Accord, Wang Cheng's face was also filled with hatred.
"I heard that you and Wang Peng are brothers, and he is your older brother?" Huang Ran asked.
“Boss, I have an irreconcilable feud with him. He has long been cut off from the Wang family,” Wang Cheng hurriedly replied.
"Why did you sever ties with such an outstanding young person?" Huang Ran pressed.
Wang Cheng dared not lie, and recounted the whole story in detail, starting with the high school admission notice.
After a long silence, Huang Ran nodded slightly. He had sent someone to investigate Wang Peng and knew that Wang Cheng was not lying.
"The tallest tree in the forest is bound to be felled by the wind. Heh, his fate was sealed long ago." Huang Ran sneered. "Let's go to Xinglan Hotel."
