Chapter 761 Monopoly of the Retail Industry
Compared to the destroyed piece of the main priest's headquarters, the piece about Asuka Shrine has not attracted much attention. The reason is simple, the police department of the Japanese state deliberately blocked the news and used the presiding ceremony to divert the attention of the people.
The cases involving ninjas and priests have always been handled in a secret and low-key manner. If the public knows that there are ninjas who surpass ordinary people and divine masters who manipulate evil spirits, it may not be a good thing for the government's image.
Although there are high-level officials of the Ministry of Police, they know that this matter is inseparable from the Mythical Group. The problem is that they can't find any evidence to prove that this matter has something to do with Xu Zhengdao. Therefore, they can only resort to covert investigations.
And Xu Zhengdao, who rested for one night, continued his inspection journey the next day like no one else. In addition to continuing to increase his investment in the media sector, Xu Zhengdao has also begun to acquire some valuable and potential companies.
The most puzzling thing is that Myth Group has reached a partnership with HXD Real Estate to acquire several commercial buildings under the company's name. After the acquisition of these real estate projects, they will be used as the business center of Jinchan Supermarket in the country.
In addition, Hetian Retail, which was completely defeated by the Mythical Group and finally bankrupt, and the supermarket that was seized by the bank was also acquired by the Mythical Group at a low price. After the renovation, it will also open at a later date.
After the news broke, those unemployed supermarket managers and ordinary employees also began to seek job opportunities. Thankfully, Shinhwa Group also duly announced that it would give priority to recruiting former staff after the supermarket reopened.
Even after the completion of the acquisition, many employees who are still unemployed have received job offers from Shinhwa Group. For a while, these employees, who had felt the pain of unemployment, also came to work happily with tears of joy.
Even if the supermarket needs to be renovated and reopened, for these employees who have regained their jobs, they will also cherish their current jobs. You know, the economy is sluggish and the unemployment rate is still high.
A supermarket can provide hundreds of jobs, which is equivalent to feeding hundreds of families. In the face of the fact that the Mythical Group annexed the market share of Hetian Retail, the largest retailer in the former Wa Kingdom, at the minimum cost, others were also very emotional.
With the convenience chain stores opened by the Mythical Group in the Waguo, the retail market share of the entire Waguo is almost monopolized by the Mythical Group. But at this time, no one dared to accuse the Mythical Group of monopolistic behavior.
The reason is simple, local companies are looking for ways to cut salaries or lay off employees due to financial problems. Now that Myth Group has invested a lot of money to solve so many jobs for the government, it is too late for the government to be happy, how can it be troublesome?
What really makes the people of the country have a good impression of Jinchan Supermarket is that the various daily necessities supplied by the supermarket are cheaper than other local retail convenience stores. When the economy collapses, there will naturally be less money available to the people.
Food, clothing, shelter and transportation are essential every day. Now that you can buy high-quality and low-cost daily necessities, the people's favorability towards supermarkets will naturally be greatly improved. For a time, the business of Jinchan Supermarket was naturally very hot.
What is different from previous years is that this year, in the Waguo and Xiangjiang, and even other Jinchan supermarkets, high-quality pure green pollution-free wild vegetables from Northeast China were put on the shelves almost at the same time, and the price was also very authentic.
As a special green vegetable on the shelves, it will basically be snatched up by customers every time it is put on the shelves. Some customers who didn't buy it couldn't help but complain: "Why don't you stock a little more?" This amount of goods is really too little! ”
"I'm so sorry! These high-quality wild vegetables are picked from the mountains, processed immediately, and then flown to the supermarket. In order to maintain freshness, the wild vegetables that are flown in every time are not enough to sell.
But rest assured, we have applied with the headquarters to increase the share of wild vegetables supply in supermarkets. If there are no surprises, you can come over as early as possible tomorrow, and there should be a batch of wild vegetables on the shelves one after another. ”
As Xu Zhengdao thought before, the mountain vegetables of the Northeast are very popular in the Wa country. It's just that it has been used as a high-end ingredient before, and it only appears in some high-end restaurants.
But no one expected that with Xu Zhengdao in many cities in Northeast China, he established a center for purchasing and processing wild vegetables. These inconspicuous wild vegetables have instantly become the green food of these cities and counties to earn foreign exchange, and the number of wild vegetables harvested has increased.
Originally, some executives in the supermarket felt that they could continue to take the high-end route. Xu Zhengdao, who received the report, also said directly: "Taking the high-end route, our profits will indeed increase, but the sales volume will definitely be greatly reduced." ”
In the end, at Xu Zhengdao's insistence, the supermarket still sold it at a relatively low price. And supermarkets have to put a large number of special products on the shelves every year to attract customers' desire to buy.
And Xu Zhengdao knows very well that after the wild vegetables in the Northeast are put on the market every year in the future, the number may not be small. If you go to the high-end, how many wild vegetables can you sell in a year? Therefore, small profits and quick sales are king.
The most important thing is that for the people who pick wild vegetables, they are also very satisfied with the purchase price given by the purchasing station. Excluding the cost of processing and transportation, if the quantity is large, the supermarket will also be very profitable.
With Xu Zhengdao's strategy of small profits and quick turnover, the previous small buyers also lost the market of the Japanese country in an instant. Despite some complaints, Mr. Xu's actions have reduced the export value of wild vegetables from the northeast.
But soon an official bluntly said: "Although there were buyers who came to buy this business before, the price was lower than that of the Mythical Group, and there was a serious gap between the number of purchases and our output."
Now that the Mythical Group is open to acquisition, how much money people sell overseas, what does it have to do with us? In the past, those buyers sold expensively, but did the people get the benefits? Has the government benefited? All this money was made by the acquirer. ”
With the voices of these officials, the buyers had no choice but to give up the business. In fact, the common people also gave great support to the acquisition station opened by the Mythical Group. After all, it doesn't cost anything to harvest wild vegetables.
All in all, after this round of expansion, Jinchan Supermarket has become the largest and most reputable retail brand in the country. And this series of acquisitions also made the Japanese side breathe a sigh of relief.
In any case, the successive acquisitions and investments of the Mythical Group have also slightly alleviated some of the employment and bank bad debt problems. Although many people know that Xu Zhengdao picked up a big bargain. But who allowed him to come up with a lot of cash in his hand?
It's just that what is a bit of a headache for the Wa State side is that since the attack on the headquarters of the presiding priest's meeting, the Wa State Police Department has also found that the domestic security problem has become more and more serious. Secretly tearing and fighting, the police officers are exhausted.
Although the top brass of the police department knows that there are those forces involved behind this fight. But the headache is that almost all of these forces are existences that they can't afford to provoke. But if the situation is not controlled, the situation will only get worse!
