After three rounds of drinking, Tang Bao and Huang Xingchang were separated at the Lido Hotel, buying such a large amount of money is definitely a great achievement, and it is really not easy for Huang Xingchang to calm down and accompany Tang Bao for nearly two hours. If it was someone else, he might have gone to the State Council to ask for merit and reward.

Call......

Nowadays, the country is in ruins, all kinds of commodities are in short supply, there are business opportunities everywhere, as long as there is capital, making money is also a very common thing.

But.

Tang Bao also has to carefully weigh which industries to invest in, after all, there are still many restrictions on the imperfect domestic business environment, and some industries are monopolized by state-owned enterprises or restrict the entry of private enterprises, and it is extremely unwise for him to step in. For example, in the banking industry, Tang Bao intends to expand the business of East West Bank to China, and when talking to the old man's study a few days ago, Tang Bao also tried the old man's idea, but the result was not ideal, and he was severely reprimanded, warning him not to think about the capitalist set.

At present, the state is very strict in supervising the financial sector.

Helpless. The old man was severely reprimanded and did not agree with his meddling in the banking industry, so the country's senior leaders would definitely have similar ideas.

Tang Bao could only temporarily give up the plan of East West Bank to land on the mainland.

Back to the old house.

The old man lay on the chaise longue and squinted his eyes, basking in the sun leisurely.

Tang Bao thought that the old man was asleep, so he didn't dare to disturb it, and walked slowly towards his east wing. "How's it going?" The sudden sound made Tang Bao stop, turned around and came back, and said with a smile: "Grandpa, you haven't fallen asleep." ”

But think about it, the old man has always insisted on getting up at 7 in the morning and going to bed at 9 at night. The schedule is extremely regular, how can it be disrupted.

"It's all negotiated with Governor Huang, and the billion-dollar foreign exchange transaction has also been completed."

"Oh?"

The old man wondered why he hadn't heard the news yet.

"Grandpa, the news of the completion of the transaction, I'm afraid that President Huang hasn't had time to report it, so we signed the contract and went directly to the Lido Hotel for dinner." Seemingly clear about the old man's thoughts, Tang Bao explained with a smile.

"Hmm."

The old man nodded understandingly, smelled the faint smell of wine wafting over, and didn't say anything. He was still very satisfied with the billions of dollars in foreign exchange that Tang Bao could sell to the country, and believed that those old guys had nothing to say: "Taking out this money has no impact on your career, right?" ”

"Grandpa, don't worry, it's okay!" Tang Bao said with a smile, he was very happy that the old man could take into account his personal interests, and not think about fighting for the interests of the country.

He has always believed that only by taking into account the interests of the country and the family can it last for a long time.

"That's good. You are busy with your own going......" The old man couldn't help but take a look at Tang Bao's confident posture, and then motioned for Tang Bao to leave.

……

After buying so much RMB, Tang Bao naturally couldn't keep it in the bank to get moldy, although the interest rate of the bank was very high in this era.

The primary investment target is the retail sector.

Since Horst's investment in the acquisition of EC department store chains, Tang Bao has had the intention of competing for the retail industry and competing with Wal-Mart in the United States. He went to Dallas to win the "7-Eleven" convenience store brand is also part of the layout, and perhaps there will be more retail mergers and acquisitions in the future.

Right now.

There is no concept of supermarket chains in China, and this market has not yet been developed. Tang Bao is the first entrant, naturally the maker and leader of the rules, he can make the most of the first advantage to build a set of standardized rules that are beneficial to himself, and firmly occupy the largest market share.

According to the historical trajectory, Carrefour and Metro did not operate in China until 1995, while Wal-Mart entered China in 1996.

Tang Bao has enough time to take the lead in building this market in China.

"Supermarket, what's that?"

Hearing her son say that he wanted to open a supermarket, Zhou Qin couldn't help but be stunned, and didn't understand what a "supermarket" was. Since Tang Bao returned to China, Zhou Qin has changed her habits, and she will run home at the end of the day, and she will not work overtime.

"Mom, the supermarket is a super retail market, which combines food, fruits, household necessities, household appliances, clothing, etc. into one store for everyone to choose freely. In short, in this supermarket, everything you usually use, it will sell! Tang Bao explained.

"Isn't that a grocery store? Supermarket...... When I went to the United States, I even became more foreign-oriented. Zhou Qin quipped.

"Mom, how can a supermarket and a grocery store be confused......" Hearing his mother's words, Tang Bao also smiled, but he didn't defend himself, "When I open the supermarket and take you to the supermarket to experience it for yourself, you will understand the difference between a supermarket and a grocery store." ”

In fact.

can't blame Zhou Qin for misunderstanding, at present, there is no concept of supermarkets in China, and Chinese people usually go to various grocery stores to buy things.

Soon.

Tang Bao launched an operation, called to the United States, and ordered Nick to order a large number of cash register equipment through the channels of the Southern Company in the United States, and to send a group of management and technical personnel to China. Supermarkets in China are starting from scratch, and even the concept is extremely unfamiliar, not to mention others, and the recruited personnel must be professionally trained in advance. Otherwise, when the supermarket opens, it will definitely be in a hurry.

Meantime.

Tang Bao didn't just wait for Nick's news, he himself also kept choosing a location for the supermarket in Kyoto.

In order to open a supermarket well, the choice of location is extremely important.

Tang Bao, as the first to eat crabs, of course had to choose the best place. In less than two days, he bought eight places, three of which were ready-made properties that could be opened after renovation, and the other five that he needed to build himself. After enclosing so much land, Tang Bao was not satisfied, and continued to look for a suitable place. Having made up his mind to dominate the retail market in Kyoto in one go, he knew that supermarkets were hot when they first appeared in China, so he naturally had no worries about losing money. Even if he loses, he doesn't care, Tang Bao's idea is to occupy the market first, even if Wal-Mart and Carrefour enter China in advance, they have to follow his ass and eat ashes.

Nick's movements are fast.

In just three days, a complete retail operations team arrived with a variety of equipment.

The supermarket address chosen by Tang Bao was also recognized by professionals, and then the decoration of the three real estate projects began.

At the same time, employees began to be recruited and training was carried out in advance.

In this way, Tang Bao's supermarket plan was in full swing, and it also attracted the attention of some people, but everyone still didn't know what a supermarket was.

……

In the old mansion of the Tang family.

"Sister-in-law, just relax, my supermarket will definitely be popular." Tang Bao wants to open eight supermarkets in one go, and just buying these lots, the investment is more than 50 million yuan. Tang Hui thought that his nephew's actions were a bit rash, and when he didn't eat dinner, he mentioned this matter to Tang Bao.

"It's good to have faith."

Tang Hui also didn't understand where Tang Bao's self-confidence came from, the supermarket, she had never heard of it, would it be accepted by the people?

"You open one first, try the water market reaction, this is more secure!"

"Okay, sister-in-law. The renovation progress of the store on Wangfujing Street is the fastest, and it will be opened before the year, so use it for a trial operation. Although Tang Bao knew that the supermarket would be popular, and it was pointless to test the water or not, he did not reject his sister-in-law's kindness, and readily agreed to his sister-in-law's proposal.
