At 9:10 a.m., an Airbus 320 that took off from Shuangliu Airport landed at Huanghua International Airport. Twenty minutes later, Wang Quan got into Lin Dong's car.

Waiting for Wang Quan to sit down, Lin Dong asked with a little doubt: "What can't you say on the phone, you have to make a special trip." By the way, you said you were going to Jinling, what's wrong with Jinling?"

At the mention of Jinling, Wang Quan's relaxed face suddenly became a lot more ugly, and when he told Wang Fuqiang about it, his face was already cloudy.

"That's too much, isn't it? Just say a few words to his daughter and get beaten up? Who does he think he is?"

Lin Dong muttered indignantly, and said while starting the car, "What is Uncle Yang's attitude?"

Wang Quan shook his head as if he didn't want to say more, lit a cigarette and asked, "Are they all here?"

"It's all there, it's waiting for you. ”

The two came out of the airport and ran directly to the hotel where Lin Dong lived. After entering the room, Lin Dong sent out a message, and within two minutes, there was a knock on the door.

Cheng Haiyang and several of his business personnel rushed in and took the initiative to greet Wang Quan after seeing him.

"Find your own place to sit. ”

After they sat down, Wang Quan briefly asked about the situation on the Nanhu side, and after they finished reporting one by one, a rough outline appeared in Wang Quan's mind.

After the price adjustment, the 200,000 live pigs promised by the Tang Group were basically supplied to the internal channels of the Tang Group, although the speed was not fast, but they never showed their intention to supply to the external channels.

The typical mentality that fertilizer and water do not flow into the fields of outsiders! The meaning is obvious, that is, they want to delay time. This kind of behavior is despicable, but no one can care about them.

The channels screened by Jiuding Commerce and Trade have stabilized, and although the overall shipment volume is not as good as that in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, it has also risen a lot compared with before.

The overall situation is okay, and it can be called a small gain.

Wang Quan cleared his throat, looked at several business personnel, and finally his eyes fell on Lin Dong, and said seriously: "I went to Rongcheng this time, Dou Yuanyang put forward a proposal for in-depth cooperation, and the specific idea is like this......"

Wang Quan spoke very slowly, and told the trip to Rongcheng in every detail. Without waiting for him to ask the opinions of these people, he heard Cheng Haiyang take the initiative to speak.

Cheng Haiyang had a deep puzzle on his face, and asked nervously: "Mr. Wang, we finally found our own channels in Nanhu, isn't it a little ...... to give it up like this?"

Although Bai Shaofeng and Liu Yang didn't speak, they didn't hide their dissatisfaction, they had worked so hard for so long, and it was in vain?

Wang Fugui wanted to speak and stopped, but did not speak. Lin Dong looked at Wang Quan with a frown and said, "What do you think of yourself?"

"I think so!"

Wang Quan didn't twist, directly expressed his attitude, looked at Cheng Haiyang and the others, and explained unhurriedly: "I haven't promised Dou Yuanyang yet, but I personally am more in favor of cooperation." Several of you are the direct handlers who opened up the Nanhu channel, and you have the most right to speak. The main reason for this visit is to ask you to make some reasonable suggestions on the details of cooperation. ”

"I'll give you an idea that you can follow to study the details of cooperation. ”

Wang Quan paused slightly, reorganized the language, and then continued: "In the early stage of cooperation, the channels we developed ourselves cannot be handed over to ocean commerce. Since they are confident to take over the Nanhu Market, let them gnaw the hardest bones and let them fight with the Tang people head-on. After they have spelled out a certain result with the Tang people, it is not too late to consider the true meaning of letting go. ”

Wang Quan's meaning is obvious, this is just a notice, not a solicitation of your opinions. The tone set by the big boss himself, and the employees can only cooperate seriously.

Seeing that no one continued to object, Wang Quan nodded lightly, looked at Bai Shaofeng and Liu Yang, and said, "Since Nanhu has begun to stabilize, there is no need for so many people to stay here. Manager Bai and Manager Liu can evacuate from Nanhu first and go directly to Beihu Market. ”

North Lake?

Several business personnel, including Lin Dong, looked at Wang Quan in surprise, especially Bai Shaofeng and Liu Yang, they could guess that after the end of Nanhu, the boss would let them continue to go back to develop the slaughterhouse, but they never expected that they would go to Beihu!

"Most of the high-quality slaughterhouses in the Central Plains are already in our hands, and it makes little sense to continue digging deeper, and the effect is not necessarily good. Rather than this, it is better to regard Beihu as our second grand strategic goal, and my thinking is like this......"

Wang Quan elaborated on his previous thoughts, including the advantages of going to Beihu to charter a farm, the natural advantages of the Beihu area and the strategic significance of the future. Even in the end, he didn't stop talking, and said the general plan for the future of Jiuding Commerce and Trade again.

For several of their business personnel, the amount of information thrown out by Wang Quan is too large, and it must be digested slowly. Lin Dong and Cheng Haiyang's brains turned the fastest, and from the perspective of Jiuding Commerce's future planning, the cooperation with Ocean Commerce and Trade became a matter of course.

"The North Lake Market is new to us, but everyone should have heard about the characteristics of the North Lake Market. You don't have to rush to talk about chartering the venue in a short period of time, but you must find out the real situation of the Beihu market to facilitate future work. After the final decision was made on the Nanhu side, Manager Cheng and Dongge also evacuated and devoted themselves to developing the Beihu market. ”

As he spoke, he looked at Lin Dong and Cheng Haiyang, "Brother Dong and Manager Cheng should contact Sanhui's connections as much as possible to see if they can dig out some information about the Beihu market and provide some help to Manager Bai and Manager Liu." ”

In the end, he looked at Wang Fugui, who had not spoken, "When you were in the mountain city, you had contact with people from the ocean trade, and you stayed in Nanhu to connect with them." ”

After arranging the work, Cheng Haiyang and the others left the room very interestingly.

After they left, Lin Dong frowned and asked, "Why do you suddenly have so many plans?"

At the earliest, they discussed the development plan for the next period of time, and the four shareholders agreed that Jiuding Trading should enter a stable period of one to two years in order to lay a solid foundation. Seeing that this wave of changes had returned to stability and could be buried in development, Wang Quan suddenly came up with such an idea.

Wang Quan handed Lin Dong a cigarette, lit the fire himself, and then said quietly: "The night Song Pengfei resigned, I drank with him. ”

Lin Dong knew that Wang Quan and Song Pengfei were eating together, but he didn't know the details of their chat, and when he heard Wang Quan mention Song Pengfei, he was even more puzzled, could this matter still have something to do with Song Pengfei?

"I invited him to join Jiuding Trading, but he refused. But he also gave me a suggestion, according to him, the resources in my hands, except for Jiuding Trading, which can barely get on the table, the slaughterhouse and the breeding farm are too bad. There are a lot of people with more resources than us, and if we develop step by step, it is impossible for us to fight a way out of the fierce competition. ”

"The only possibility to achieve greater results is Jiuding Commerce, his suggestion is to expand the advantages of development into a strong, as long as the strong advantage is maintained, Jiuding Commerce can be completely rooted in this industry. Then go back and use Jiuding Commerce to drive other industries, there may be unexpected effects. ”

Lin Dong thought carefully for a while, nodded lightly, and said, "Beihu is also his suggestion to you?"

"Yes!"

Wang Quan nodded affirmatively, and then said: "I talked to Lao Zhang about this matter, and I originally planned to wait for it to be completely stable before going to Beihu, but Dou Yuanyang inserted a lever and put forward the idea of in-depth cooperation. I've thought about it, and these two ideas don't conflict, and they can even complement each other. ”

"By handing over the Nanhu market to Ocean Commerce, we will be able to free up manpower to develop Beihu, and at the same time, we must seize the time to recruit manpower, and there are still not enough people in the business!"

After a pause for a few seconds, Wang Quan repeated what he had not just said.

"Brother Dong, I thought about it, Dou Yuanyang's idea is simply cooperation, and if you think about it deeply, it is likely to become our future development direction. You see, Dou Yuanyang and Wu Qilin should have no problem joining forces to control the Nanhu market. This situation is similar to the cooperation we have found several trading companies in other markets before, and we have been cooperating smoothly for a period of time, and the effect is obvious. ”

"I have a bold idea, since other markets can do this, can Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai also try this way? If it works, we can free up more energy to develop other aspects of the business. Although it seems that the profit has decreased, it can speed up the pace of Jiuding Commerce. ”

Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai?

Lin Dong's brows furrowed when he heard this, these three places are the foundation of the brothers' fortune, and they are afraid of the existence of others in their hands, how can they hand it over? Subconsciously he wanted to deny Wang Quan's thoughts, but when the words came to his mouth, the ghost made the gods change their taste.

"Looking for a trading company?"

Wang Quan first shook his head, and then nodded with a smile, "I definitely won't go to an outside trading company!"

Outside trading companies?

Lin Dong looked at Wang Quan puzzled.

"If I discuss with Uncle Yang and let him set up a trading company, or if we both cooperate to set up a trading company, can he agree?"

Lin Dongleng paused, then a hint of joy flashed in his eyes, and he nodded and said: "It is better to cooperate in the establishment of a trading company, the market will not get out of control, and it can further reduce losses." ”

Subsequently, I didn't know what came to mind, and then said: "You can take Jiang Province as a pilot first, and then consider other mature markets after the effect comes out, so it is safer!"

......

At eight o'clock in the evening, Wang Quan rushed to Jinling. This time he came to Jinling, and he did not inform anyone. Anyway, it was still early before the market started to get busy, and he was not in a hurry, and slowly rushed towards the market where Yang Dejun was, and when he came to the market, it was already half past nine in the evening.

Wang Quan did not rush to find Yang Dejun, but wandered around the market like an unemployed vagrant, looking up at the signboard hanging above the store from time to time.

"Bao Kee White Strip Pork Wholesale"

Looking at the name on the signboard, Wang Quan's eyes narrowed, and he finally found it.

Wang Quan is more than ten meters away from the store, and a small refrigerated truck is parked in front of the store to load goods, and only one or two words in their conversation can be faintly heard. Slowly approach the past and stand still at a distance of five or six meters. From this location, you can see a man and a woman sitting in the store.

"I thought Lao Yang was so awesome, but now it seems that it's like that. ”

"Did he hold back his badness? He seemed to have an idea about the shop next door to us when he left yesterday. ”

This small refrigerated truck is only suitable for short-distance transportation, and there is no meat hook for white pork in the compartment, and the two loading guys simply lay a clean transparent film in the refrigerated truck, and the white pork carried out is directly piled on the film. As if they had finished loading, the two took off their gloves and wiped the grease off their hands, and one of the guys took out a cigarette and gave it to the other.

After taking the cigarette handed over by his companion and lighting it, this guy showed a look of disdain on his face and snorted: "He is a pig who sells well, and he has ever sold white pork?

A trace of sadness flashed on the face of the smoked guy, and he subconsciously looked at the idle shop next to him, muttering: "There are also many customers who need white strips when the pig goes into the water, if he really sells white strips, it may not be no sales." Alas......"

"Alas, a yarn, we are part-time workers, does it have anything to do with us?"

"But let's do it too!"

Wang Quan listened to the conversation between the two of them, squinted at the two of them for a while, and then turned to leave.

At Wang Fuqiang's strong request, Zhang Lei undertook the work of pulling the goods in the refrigerated truck to the door, and the work on the car was relatively easy, only needed to pull the cold box to the door and move it by the guys below.

Wang Fuqiang's walking posture is still a little abnormal, but he still works vigorously, the cold box weighs two kilograms, each box contains ten kilograms of products, Wang Fuqiang carries six cold boxes at a time.

Zhang Lei pulled over a stack of cold boxes again, squatted at the door of the car and waited for Wang Fuqiang, and suddenly saw the person standing not far from the door of the store, he only felt a little familiar, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, and then a name suddenly popped up in his mind.

A complicated look flashed on his face, and he quickly jumped down from the refrigerated truck, nodded and smiled at the man, and then shouted at the store: "Boss, Boss Wang is here! Fuqiang, your eldest brother has come to see you!"

Wang Quan had been standing next to him for a few minutes, he didn't go over just to see Wang Fuqiang's work status, and now that he was recognized, he walked towards the store at the moment.

Before he reached the door of the store, he saw Yang Dejun walking out quickly, looking at Wang Quan with surprise on his face and asking, "When did you come?"

Wang Fuqiang followed closely, smiled at Wang Quanhan, and was a little embarrassed, and hurriedly walked to the side of the refrigerated truck to continue working.

Wang Quan didn't care about him, followed Yang Dejun into the store, glanced at the goods he had just received, and then said with a smile: "Jinling, who arrived at eight o'clock, was embarrassed to call when I thought you were busy." ”

Yang Dejun smiled, and did not expose Wang Quan, "The goods arrived half an hour ahead of schedule today, and the goods will be unloaded in about half an hour, I'll let your aunt fry two dishes, let's drink some." ”

Wang Quan didn't refuse, but said, "Don't bother Auntie, I'll just go buy two cooked food." ”

"What's the trouble, there's something ready in the house, and I'll be able to get it ready soon!"

As he spoke, Yang Dejun walked to the stairs and shouted upstairs: "Wang Quan is here, the old woman will fry the two dishes." ”

There was a response from upstairs, and then Li Huilan came down from upstairs, looked at Wang Quan with a smile on her face, and her eyes inadvertently drifted to Wang Fuqiang, and she went upstairs to work after saying a few words.

After sitting down again, the smile on Yang Dejun's face retracted, and he asked in a low voice, "How are you going to deal with the matter of wealth and strength?"

A sneer hung on the corner of Wang Quan's mouth, and he also lowered his voice and said, "I have already been to the shop where I beat people just now." ”

Yang Dejun was surprised: "Have you looked for pork abalone?"

"No, just looked at the door. ”

A trace of disdain flashed in Wang Quan's eyes, and then said: "I thought it was a big business, dare to be so arrogant, isn't it just like that." ”

Yang Dejun nodded in agreement, he didn't even look down on pork and abalone, let alone Wang Quan.

"Uncle, this is your place, what do you say to deal with?"

Yang Dejun didn't think about it, and said directly: "Report to the 61 police first, and after the 61 police investigate and deal with it, let's concoct him! I told Fu Qiang, I originally planned to tell you in two days, since you are here, then ask for your opinion." ”

"There are two stores next door to pork abalone, and I used to do white strip wholesale, but this time I didn't see the market, and I just finished handling the inventory and withdrawing people. I mean, I'll take the store down, and then let Fuqiang invest in white pork with me, and you will be responsible for supplying it, and the pork abalone will be dried openly. ”

What Yang Dejun said was roughly the same as what Wang Quan had just heard, the only thing that surprised Wang Quan was that Yang Dejun actually wanted to partner with Wang Fuqiang?

Wang Quan asked curiously: "Uncle, what do you mean by this? How much money can Fuqiang have, can he do a white strip business? Besides, how can you be distracted when your store is so busy?"

Yang Dejun raised his eyebrows, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "It doesn't matter how much money you invest, you can always increase your income a little, right?" My plan is to wait for the new store to open, let Fuqiang be responsible in the past, and I will still guard here without delay at all." ”

Wang Fuqiang is responsible?

Wang Quan looked at Yang Dejun in astonishment, and asked with surprise in his voice: "You mean that Fuqiang can be in charge of the store alone?"

Yang Dejun nodded without hesitation, and then explained Wang Fuqiang's recent performance in detail.

"This kid's personality has nothing to say, he is not impatient and down-to-earth, many of my old customers here have a good impression of Fuqiang, this kind of character to do business, as long as you can stick to the end, it is definitely not worse than those who seem to be smart. ”

"The only bad thing is that he is too unconfident, sometimes I wonder if he has been hit, how can he not believe in himself so much?"

Yang Dejun commented on Wang Fuqiang very pertinently, and then suddenly laughed evilly, "Anyway, with your help, can the business be bad?"

The two lowered their heads and whispered to each other, and suddenly Wang Fuqiang's voice came from their ears.

"Uncle, it's done!"

Yang Dejun glanced up at Wang Fuqiang, and then stretched out his head to look outside.

"It's still the same, it's all done!"

No matter which car comes to deliver the goods, Yang Dejun will prepare some food, drinks and cigarettes for the driver. Hearing Wang Fuqiang say this, Yang Dejun nodded, "You two wash your hands, let's drink some." ”

When Wang Fuqiang and Zhang Lei were cleaning, Yang Dejun asked again: "Is the method I just said feasible?"

Wang Quan nodded, and then shook his head again: "You said that he can be in charge of a store alone, what else can't he do? But there is one point, I will pay for the opening of the store, so don't be busy." ”

Seeing that Yang Dejun was slightly stunned, Wang Quan smiled again: "I came here this time, dealing with the matter of wealth and strength is secondary, mainly to tell you about the new model." ”

Yang Dejun looked at Wang Quan suspiciously, and just wanted to ask when he heard a voice from upstairs, suppressed the curiosity in his heart, and got up upstairs to serve food.

All the products have been put into storage, the hygiene of the store has been cleaned up, and the small square table is placed in the middle, and there are four small dishes fried by Li Huilan herself on the table.

Zhang Lei looked at Wang Quan, and couldn't help but think of the picture of the first time he came to talk to the boss about cooperation, at that time, another guy had not yet gone out to open a store, and Yang Rui was still helping in the store. In less than two years, the old man opened his own shop, Yang Rui also became the new white pork wholesaler in Jinling, and Wang Quan became a real big boss.

After knowing the relationship between Wang Fuqiang and Wang Quan, he guessed that Wang Fuqiang would definitely not be here for long, and with such a big brother here, he could also be a small boss at the very least.

However, he did not have thoughts of imbalance. I know best how much ability I have, and instead of envying others unrealistically, it is better to do my job honestly.

The boss takes care of himself in mind, and looking at the entire market, how many guys can get his own salary? It is no exaggeration to say that his salary is even higher than that of the average white-collar worker in the office, and he is already very satisfied.

Wang Quan's arrival at the door made him have a hunch, Wang Fuqiang was afraid that he would leave! Zhang Lei was very curious, how would Wang Quan help his brother get angry?

It's a pity that he was disappointed!

This meal is really just a simple drink, chatting about the parents, occasionally one or two anecdotes in the business field, and there is no topic about Wang Fuqiang until the end.

When the wine was gone, Wang Fuqiang followed Wang Quan back to the hotel.

"Uncle Yang told me that you can open a store on your own. ”

Wang Fuqiang smiled, did not speak, and his eyes flashed with hope.

Wang Quan looked at him like this, and secretly laughed in his heart, but he deliberately asked with a straight face: "What Uncle Yang said is not important, I just want to hear your own thoughts." ”

Wang Fuqiang looked stunned, opened his mouth and didn't speak, and after thinking carefully for a while, he spoke again: "I want to try." ”

"Would you rather sell pork or sell by-products?"

Wang Fuqiang's eyes had a complicated look in his eyes, and after hesitating for a moment, his expression became firm, and he said categorically: "Sell pork!"

It was the first time for Wang Quan to hear Wang Fuqiang's firm voice, and he felt inexplicably relieved, no matter whether he could do a good job or not, at least he had an attitude.

The next morning, Wang Fuqiang went to the market early as usual, while Wang Quan slept until he woke up naturally and rushed to the market after breakfast.

"I've already contacted the landlord, he will come over after work at noon, and when the time comes, we will sign the rental contract and it will be done, and the equipment inside is ready-made, and it can be opened at any time. ”

Yang Dejun briefly explained the situation, and then asked: "When are you going to open?"

Yang Dejun did not deliberately avoid these words, Wang Fuqiang was secretly excited, Zhang Lei was also happy for Wang Fuqiang on the side, and whispered something beside Wang Fuqiang.

Wang Quan shook his head unexpectedly and said: "Don't be in a hurry to open, I plan to let Fuqiang learn from Yang Rui for a while, and when I find out how to play with white pork, it's not too late to open again." ”

Yang Dejun agreed with Wang Quan's safe idea and took the initiative to pick up the phone and call Yang Rui. The phone was quickly connected, and Yang Dejun went straight to the point and told Wang Fuqiang about his plan to sell white strips, and said that he would let Wang Fuqiang follow him to learn business and industry skills.

I don't know what was said on the phone, the smile on Yang Dejun's face disappeared suddenly, anger appeared in his eyes, and then he hung up the phone fiercely, and scolded in dialect something that Wang Quan couldn't understand.

Yang Dejun's expression changed, and several people in the room noticed it.

Wang Fuqiang looked at Yang Dejun nervously, and then looked at Wang Quan, looking a little nervous. Zhang Lei looked at Yang Dejun without saying a word, with doubts in his eyes.

Before Wang Quan went to Rongcheng, he heard Zhang Chenggang say that Yang Rui had changed and had not reported the goods for several days, which was really abnormal for the white strip wholesaler. Wang Quan didn't care at the time, and it wasn't the first time that Yang Rui's cleverness had been shown, and he didn't take this kind of thing to heart.

The idea of letting Wang Fuqiang learn from Yang Rui was also improvised by him, just to see what kind of attitude Yang Rui had. If he can agree to let Wang Fuqiang learn from him, it doesn't matter if he doesn't teach sincerely, Wang Quan won't have an opinion on him. But I never expected that Yang Rui would be so resolute!

sneered secretly, since he has a clear attitude, let's speak according to his ability!

Wang Quan smiled and comforted Yang Dejun and told him not to be angry. then looked at Wang Fuqiang and Zhang Lei, and motioned for them to go out first. After the two of them went out, Wang Quan said with a smile again: "The matter of Baitiao is not worth mentioning, I'll tell you something serious first!"

Wang Quan leaked the news to Yang Dejun last night, but there was no formal discussion because of the large number of people drinking.

Yang Dejun himself couldn't imagine that Yang Rui could directly refuse, and when he heard Wang Quan's words, he could only forcibly suppress the anger in his heart.

"Uncle, have you ever thought about setting up a trading company?"

Trading company?

Yang Dejun was stunned when he heard this, and then his eyes changed, he looked at Wang Quan and asked, "Why did you suddenly say this?"

Wang Quan turned his head to look outside, stretched out his hand and pointed outside, and said: "Uncle, you have been in the market for so many years, you get up early every day and are greedy for darkness, and it is not an exaggeration to say that you make hard money. You and your aunt are both old, and it is definitely not a long-term solution to stay up like this. ”

Wang Quan was telling the truth, and Yang Dejun's face was a little gloomy after hearing this. The age is not forgiving, and Yang Dejun himself doesn't know how long he can last.

"Setting up a trading company allows you to save snacks and make your body less tired. If you think about it carefully, the trading company is actually the same as you are doing wholesale in the market, they are dealing with different people, and you have rich experience in this area, so you don't have to worry about it at all. ”

Yang Dejun didn't know Wang Quan's true intentions, and looked at Wang Quan suspiciously, "If you set up a trading company, won't your profits be reduced again!"

Wang Quan smiled nonchalantly: "Uncle, small profits but quick turnover! The trading company does not affect the normal sales of the market, and after the establishment of the trading company, the sales channels will definitely increase, as long as the sales increase, won't we make more money?"

Seeing Yang Dejun's hesitation, Wang Quan said the future plan of Jiuding Commerce and Trade again, "Uncle, if Jiuding Commerce wants to become bigger, it can only take a different path from others. I think well, take Jiang Province as a pilot, if it can be successful, then Jiuding Commerce and Trade can enter the fast lane of development. ”

"Any one of us can make more money more easily, and most importantly, the trading company can be used as a legacy, you should know, this situation abounds in our industry!"

Yang Dejun carefully digested the plan that Wang Quan said, his eyes became brighter and brighter, he subconsciously glanced outside, and suddenly asked with a smile: "You tell the truth to your uncle, do you also want Fuqiang to sell white strips?"

Wang Quan was slightly stunned and nodded calmly: "For him, Baitiao can be regarded as an attempt." For me, it is also an attempt to avoid detours in the future, no matter what the final result is. ”

After speaking, he said sincerely: "Uncle, you have to help me!"

Yang Dejun laughed, followed by a long sigh, "Okay, listen to you, set up a company!"

On the way to Jinling, Wang Quan specially inquired about a similar situation on the Internet, and the simplest and most worry-free was the parent company. With Jiuding Trading as the parent company, let Yang Dejun set up a trading company as a subsidiary of Jiuding Trading.

There is also a headache in this kind of sub-parent relationship, controlling stake!

More than 50% of the holding is absolute holding, if no more than 50% is relative holding, how to choose?

"Let's start with it, the establishment of a trading company is just to help you experiment with whether this model is feasible, I can pay for it, but don't want to put too much burden on me. As you said yourself, I'm too old to be too tired. So, you take the big head, I take the small head, save worry and effort and make more money!"

Yang Dejun seemed to smile slyly, but he directly solved Wang Quan's inner entanglement.
