Under the bright incandescent light, rows of colorful shelves display a variety of goods.

We offer a wide range of vegetables, fisheries, rice, snacks, beverages, liquor, and daily necessities.

Under the guidance of the sales staff, the customers who entered the store looked at the products on the shelves with surprised faces.

After briefly inspecting the entire supermarket, Ang Lee and Hua Man came to the first floor.

Hua Man remembered the surprised look of the neighbors in the supermarket, and said with a smile:

"It seems that the neighbors are very curious about the business model of Baihui Supermarket."

Hearing this, Ang Lee's face was very calm.

"Novelty is also time-sensitive. Do you know what the neighborhood values? ”

Hua Man turned his head to look at Li An, and couldn't help asking, "What is it?" ”

"Convenience and affordability, of course affordability is the main thing.

Although there are many types of products, we can meet the different shopping needs of customers. But at all times, people value value for money.

It's not easy for everyone to make money these days, and if the price of goods here is high, everyone would rather be more cumbersome and run a few more steps to buy things in other shops.

Especially in the walled city, whether the supermarket can attract more customers to the store depends on whether the price is close to the people. Whether or not I can make money depends on the source of goods. ”

Hua Man's face was very interested, and he asked with interest:

"Source?"

"Yes."

Li An nodded and said slowly:

"The supply is the most important thing, seasonal vegetables, seafood, because I have direct contact with the vegetable association and fishermen, so the price is low enough.

But drinks, canned food, and some imported goods I found agents to get the goods, not to mention the price, not to mention the price, not much money. ”

"That's right."

Hua Man nodded in understanding.

It's unrealistic to do retail and think about how much money you can make in the short term.

In addition to the backlog of goods, the most important thing is the source of goods.

Only one supermarket is not large-scale, and it is impossible to get a supply with a sufficiently favorable price.

While continuing to expand the scale of retail, what Ang Lee needs to do is to obtain the right to operate some goods in Hong Kong.

Solve the problem of the supply of most goods in the supermarket.

When the funds are abundant, you can consider the special management rights of beverages and imported goods.

For example, Coca-Cola, which was very popular at the end of the sixties.

In 1948, the Hong Kong Soda Factory officially produced Coca-Cola and became a special bottler in Hong Kong. By 1965, the Swire group had successfully acquired the Hong Kong Soda Factory and acquired the operating rights to Coca-Cola.

During this period, Ang Lee also has the opportunity to intervene.

The two walked out of the store, Hua Man seemed to remember something, and suddenly asked:

"A'an, you have the supermarket open today, do you have any time?"

Ang Lee turned his head to look at her and quipped:

"You think you have to stay in the store to be the boss, of course you are. How? Want to go out shopping and don't have someone to pick up something? ”

There was a breeze blowing, Hua Man brushed the hair in front of his forehead behind his ears, and chuckled:

"Not really, I'm not a shopaholic."

"What's that?"

Ang Lee asked.

"Today they discussed the welfare meeting and specially asked me to call over."

"Of course, no problem."

Li An nodded.

Orchid electric hair shop.

When the two of them entered the store, they happened to meet Jia Chen going out.

He paused, glanced around the store, his eyes swept over Hua Man, and he looked at Li An who wanted to speak and stopped, as if he had some scruples.

Li An took Jia Chen's expression in his eyes and nodded.

"Say it."

Only then did Jia Chen speak: "The earth branch has asked people to contact me." ”

"Where?"

Jia Chen shook his head: "He can't directly say the specific location, just let me go to the old man's street, and someone will take me to see him at that time." ”

Li Ang thought about it and said:

"Just let him out as I said last time. A word of caution, you only have one chance, and if you miss it, you have nothing. ”

"I know."

Jia Chen nodded heavily and left in a hurry.

As soon as Jia Chen left, Hua Man, who had been silent, took Li An's arm and asked in a low voice:

"Yang Zhuluan is a heavenly stem, and the earthly branch is also a member of the killer organization?"

Li An nodded, and said calmly:

"Although Yang Zhuluan is dead, the Dizhi stays in the walled city and does not leave, and he also asks Jia Chen to pay attention to the movements here, which is always an unstable factor.

There has never been a reason to prevent thieves for a thousand days, for the sake of insurance, it is better to kill the local branch, and when the killer organization exists in name only, there is nothing to be afraid of. ”

Although Ang Lee said it lightly and didn't seem to take the earth branch to heart, Hua Man still had a worried face.

"Jay Chen is also a member of the killer organization, how sure are you that he betrayed the killer organization?"

She had seen Jia Chen a few times when she came to look for the boxer before, and she knew his pseudonym.

But he didn't know that the other party was also a member of the killer organization.

"His name is Jia Chen, and he stayed in the killer organization because he had a handle to be manipulated by the other party, if he had a chance to get out of this cage, he should be very willing."

After explaining, Ang Li looked at Hua Man with a smile on his face:

"What, worry about me?"

"I'm serious with you."

Hua Man sneered and hammered Ang Lee's chest, full of little womanhood.

"Then if you say that, I'm sure I'm sure."

Ang Lee smiled.

"Gone."

The two went to the second floor to rent a room and pushed the door in.

Boxer, Duan Yingfeng, Bi De, Tai Po, Diao Lan. There were also two middle-aged people who didn't know each other sitting around the table, talking and discussing something.

Seeing Li An and Hua Man enter the door, the boxer hurriedly stood up and greeted:

"Ang Li, sister, you are here, sit first."

The crowd shifted their butts and gave way.

Li Ang pulled two stools, and the two sat down next to each other.

Duan Yingfeng got up and handed over two cups of tea, and said to Li An:

"You're just in time, I just happened to talk about you with the boxer."

Li An glanced at the two middle-aged people who were born and waved his hand.

"You can just discuss it yourself, I won't stay in the walled city for long."

Duan Yingfeng took over:

"We know, but the welfare society wants to restrain the community in the walled city, and you can't help without it.

Didn't you say you could hang up a false position? So we discussed it and left you the title of honorary president. ”

"Honorary President?"

Li An was taken aback, and a flash of astonishment flashed across his face.

Then he shook his head and smiled dumbly:

"I don't think this honorary president is so easy to be."

Hearing this, the boxer smiled and said:

"Don't worry, I know you don't have time, it's just a false job."

Li An didn't say anything to refuse, nodded his head, and accepted it.

Although he is only the honorary president, he knows that he has to take on a certain amount of responsibility.

However, then again, the reason why the walled city is in the three regards is because it is not part of the Ghost Guy's colonial area.

The residents who live here have also fled, and sometimes they can help out as much as they can.

There is nothing wrong with accumulating social prestige through the welfare association.

Those rich people spend money and make efforts to engage in charity, not to enhance their social prestige.

On the other side, Jia Chen came to the old man's street according to the agreement with the earth branch.

He had just entered an alley when a hurried figure bumped into him.

Jia Chen subconsciously clasped the other party's wrist, but he didn't expect that person's reaction to be the same as his, and he also grabbed his wrist.

Jia Chen's other hand, his wrist flipped, and grabbed the man's forearm first.

"Jiachen."

The man spoke.

He looks like he is in his twenties, wearing a placket and a short hexagram, with an open chest and open arms, and a sweat towel around his neck, dressed as an ordinary coolie.

Jiachen let go of the other party's wrist.

"Bingwu, Mr. Dizhi asked me to come."

After the young man who called himself Bingwu finished speaking, he didn't drag the mud and water at all, turned around and left.

Jia Chen didn't speak, and followed in silence.

After a long time, I finally got up to a dilapidated high-rise building.

He walked down the hallway of the apartment, which was not much wider than his shoulders, and stopped at the door of a house.

Bingwu patted the iron fence at the door vigorously.

After a while, an ordinary-looking woman dressed in coarse cloth opened a corner of the door, glanced through the iron fence, and then opened the iron fence.

The two walked into the door, and Jia Chen looked around quietly.

This seems to be no different from an ordinary residential room, the room is a small single room, a simple single bed, and it looks fairly clean.

The woman took the bedside phone and dialed a number.

"Jiachen is here."

When the phone was answered, the woman just said a few words and hung up.

Silence fell into the room, and the three of them were silent.

Jia Chen secretly calculated the time in his heart, and it was only about ten minutes before the door was knocked.

The woman walked over and opened the door, and a middle-aged man with gray hair and a gray robe walked in.

Jia Chen stood up:

"Mr. Jizhi."

The middle-aged man snorted, "Let's talk about it." ”

"Boxer and Duan Yingfeng, with the support of Ang Lee, held a welfare meeting."

The middle-aged man scoffed: "Welfare will? Are you ready to take over the territory of the Fellow Townspeople's Association? ”

Jia Chen shook his head: "No, it's similar to the nature of the welfare club outside, but they still want to restrain the associations in the walled city, so that the walled city is no longer chaotic." ”

"Do good deeds?"

The middle-aged man laughed out loud and said in a disdainful tone:

"It seems that the two of them are going to be like their father, pretending to be heroes to the end."

He frowned slightly, was silent for a while, and said:

"As you just said, Ang Lee is also involved."

Jia Chen nodded: "The Welfare Association is understaffed, and Li An's help is indispensable if you want to restrain the associations in the walled city."

In order to help the boxers and Duan Yingfeng, the people that Li An brought to the walled city were handed over to the boxers as the security team of the welfare club in the walled city. ”

The middle-aged man's eyes lit up:

"You mean, Ang Lee's gunmen aren't there, he's alone now."

"Mr. Jizhi." Jia Chen suddenly spoke.

"What's the matter?"

When Jia Chen interrupted his words, the middle-aged man's face darkened, and he was obviously a little unhappy.

"I don't understand, why do you want me to stare at Duan Yingfeng and the boxers?"

Jia Chen's tone was cold.

"You know what?"

The middle-aged man scolded.

"The organization has been laid out in the walled city for so many years, how can it be easy to give up. Although Tiangan is dead, the organization has not dispersed since I was there.

Duan Tongtian and Chaomengshan were killed by our organization, and Duan Yingfeng and their stay in the walled city will interfere with our plans sooner or later.

and Ang Lee, who killed Mr. Tiangan, this revenge must be avenged. ”

After saying this, he looked at Jia Chen indifferently.

"You should know the rules, don't ask about this kind of thing in the future, and do whatever the organization tells you to do.

You should remember that when the organization let Diao Lan go, what did you promise yourself? ”

"Xin didn't leave, I stayed, and I worked for the organization for the rest of my life."

The middle-aged man snorted coldly: "It's good that you know, if you don't keep your promise, you should know the consequences!" ”

"I understand."

Jia Chen nodded, his face expressionless.

The killer is also involuntarily.

Both he and Diao Lan were cultivated by the organization since childhood.

The organization has spent a lot of time and money, so it is naturally impossible for the killers under its command to leave easily.

What's more, it's killers like him and Diao Lan.

For Jia Chen, who is bent on breaking away from the organization and making Diao Lan no longer threatened by the organization, this is an opportunity.

It's night.

Ballroom, 3rd floor.

The strong wind brought by the fists and feet gradually stopped.

Ang Lee's upper body was naked, and sweat was dripping from his muscular upper body.

"I see that you practiced boxing just now, and the Baguazhang is walking and turning, and the six major openings and splitting and hanging fists of Bajiquan are more and more proficient, and there is a faint momentum of its own."

"It's still early."

Ang Lee exhaled lightly and smiled.

His eyes naturally fell on Hua Man who came over.

A slim and elegant long skirt outlines the woman's graceful figure, and the tender eyes and shallow dimples on the cheeks make the smile on the woman's face a lot sweeter.

Walking up to Li An, she handed over a towel, and said with a serious look in her eyes:

"It's because you're too demanding, just talking about the attainments of Baji Fist and Splitting Hanging Fist, even compared to those national art masters, it's not much better."

What she said is not an exaggeration, she has practiced boxing since she was a child, and Hua Man's vision is naturally not bad.

What's more, she herself is practicing Bajiquan, and she knows Li An's current level of Bajiquan, plus the splitting and hanging boxing that is not bad at all

Eight poles are close to the body, splitting and hanging fists are long and far hits, and the two are integrated and run through, and the hands are naturally not weaker than those masters who are both long and have names and surnames.

It's just that Ang Lee seems to be very greedy, with many boxing skills, and he is taking the path of a thousand fists and returning to his own school.

But after thinking about it, considering Ang Lee's age, I can also understand Ang Lee's thoughts.

Li An took the towel and asked while wiping the sweat on his body:

"What do you want to eat?"

"Huh?"

Hua Man didn't react at once.

Li An took the short shirt on the side and put it on his body, and said with a smile:

"I just went out to do some errands, and when the matter is done, I'll help you bring it back."

Hua Man naturally knew the meaning of Li An's words, and she looked up at Li An:

"I'll go with you."

Li An just shook his head slowly.

Although Hua Man has good skills, she may not be able to cope with those killers.

"Something to eat?"

Ang Lee asked again.

Seeing Ang Li's eyes, Hua Man had no choice but to give up.

She tilted her head, thought for a while, and said:

"Wonton noodles, sprout soup."

"Okay."

Li An nodded, turned around and walked outside.

"Be careful."

Hua Man's voice came from behind him.

Li An raised his hand and left the room.
