The previous company was Qiansheng Group, wasn't it?
The previous company was Qiansheng Group, wasn't it?
Just as Xu An was about to blurt out an answer to Lu Shengnan's inexplicable question, Lu Shengnan spoke first on the other end of the conversation.
"After I left Qiansheng Group, I worked for a food company for about a week or half a month. This food company had a wide range of businesses, and they produced and sold all kinds of common foods in supermarkets."
During my time there, I categorized and organized the company's products and prepared detailed market analysis reports for each category. These categories included the products you just mentioned, boss.

"Old Zhang, have you heard? Zhuzhou City has reached a cooperation agreement with Xu's Catering. Xu's Catering has already found a suitable shop in Jiangyuan City and is preparing to sign the contract, renovate, and open a branch," the person in charge of the Yunhai City Disabled Persons' Federation said leisurely to the person on the other end of the phone.
"Really? Is this just a rumor?" The person on the other end of the phone was skeptical.
"Last night I received a video, which was a news broadcast about Xu's Catering. The news broadcast from Qingyan Provincial TV mentioned that two of Xu's Catering's stores have opened branches in multiple cities in Haiyang Province."
Hearing this, I became curious, so I asked my friends and classmates in surrounding cities. They said that shops in Dongqing City were already renovated and ready to open, shops in Zhuzhou City had been found and renovations were underway, and they were also in talks with partners in Jiangyuan City.
"What's going on? We just visited Xu's Catering headquarters in early October. Back then, the boss was very conservative and only reached temporary cooperation agreements with Dongqing City and Jiangyuan City, two relatively close provinces. How come he's now involved with such a remote city as Zhuzhou City?"
"The news I've heard is," the head of the Yunhai City Disabled Persons' Federation said in a low voice.
"Old Jiang from Zhuzhou helped connect Xu's Catering with a local middle school. Once the partnership to supply meals to the middle school was established, the partnership between their Disabled Persons' Federation and Xu's Catering was also finalized!"
"You mean," the person on the other end of the phone said softly, "that if we also help Xu's Catering connect with them, they can open a branch here as well?"
"Don't talk nonsense, I'm just guessing. Just guessing, understand?"
“.”
After chatting for a while, the two ended the call, and the person on the other end dialed Jiang Dashan's number the instant the call ended.
"Old Jiang, I heard you've done something big lately!"
"What nonsense! What great things could I possibly do in this wretched place? Don't be mistaken and think I'm bringing this up by mistake!"
"Just answer me, is Xu's Catering planning to open a branch in Zhuzhou? Has it reached a cooperation agreement with your Disabled Persons' Federation? Has it even found a store location? Has it even sent people to your Disabled Persons' Federation for training?"
"Hey, Lao Zhang, you've really got some new information lately! This time, your news travels fast. The cooperation was only finalized two days ago, and you already know about it!"
"I also heard," Old Zhang lowered his voice again, asking the question he was most concerned about: "that you acted as a go-between for Xu's Catering, arranging a group catering cooperation for them, which is why they agreed to open a branch in Zhuzhou City?"
"What nonsense are you spouting? It's all baseless!" Jiang Dashan shouted angrily before ignoring the latter part of Lao Zhang's statement and saying directly:
"Xu's Catering is currently bidding aggressively. If they can win the bid for group meals for more than 500 people in the local city, they will open two branches in the area: Xu's Fast Food and Xu's Braised Food. They will also cooperate with our Disabled Persons' Federation on the side."
Jiang Dashan's words were exactly what Xu An said during their meeting that day, without any personal feelings or falsehoods.
"So, as long as the prerequisite of cooperating on group meals for 500 people can be met, Xu's Catering can open two branches in the local area?" Old Zhang confirmed again.
"That's roughly the idea," Jiang Dashan mumbled.
"I understand."

"The applications submitted to the bank this Monday have all passed review smoothly. The funds should be disbursed next Wednesday, or at the latest Friday. Everyone, keep a close eye on the process and notify the clients promptly. Please come to me to pick up the receipts and other relevant documents, and remember to organize the files properly."
Upon hearing this, several people in the office set off to collect their documents from the administrative staff. Brother Liu was one of them, but the moment he left, Luo Peng, the intern sitting next to him, also stood up.
Upon seeing this, Brother Liu immediately adopted the demeanor of a senior, speaking in a gentle but loud voice, "Xiao Luo, I can't carry it myself, you continue with your work."
"Ah," Luo Peng turned to look at Brother Liu, a sheepish smile on his face, and scratched his head, saying憨厚ly, "I also submitted a document on Monday."
"Oh, is it that fast food restaurant owner's order?" Brother Liu said, a relieved smile spreading across his face as he gently patted Luo Peng's shoulder encouragingly.
"I didn't expect you to actually win over this client. You're quite capable. Why didn't you tell me? But you've learned a lot; you got the bank's approval on just one submission."
"It's all thanks to your excellent teaching, Brother Liu."
In just a few words, the two took the documents from the administrative staff and turned to walk back to their seats.
Brother Liu's gaze kept sweeping over the brown paper bag in Luo Peng's hand, and he asked, half teasing and half maliciously, "I remember this boss came over before wanting a loan of one or two million, I wonder what amount you ultimately signed?"
