Financial freedom starts with the daily intelligence system!

The troubles Jiantao Supermarket is facing are indeed a big problem for the Jiang brothers.

Although Jiang Tao has made some money in the past few months, his network of contacts is still very weak.

Back in Beijing, he and Xu Li had a good in-law relationship.

If you encounter any trouble, you can ask Du Ennan and her father Du Taiming for help.

But in Ping County, the highest-ranking official Jiang Tao knew was Jiang Changgui, the village head of Jiangjiazhuang.

Jiang Changgui's words carry weight in the village, but outside of Jiangjiazhuang, nobody takes him seriously!

Therefore, this time he could only ask Bai Yulan for help.

Just as he thought, this little thing was no big deal for Bai Yulan.

The call lasted less than two minutes, and I received a positive response from the other party.

"Alright Jiang Tao, don't worry about this. I can get it sorted out for you this morning."

"No one will bother your supermarket anymore."

After hanging up the phone, Bai Yulan looked at Jiang Tao with a relaxed and carefree smile on her face.

"I knew coming to Sister Bai was the right choice."

"I'm so sorry to have troubled you so much, Sister Bai. I owe you a favor. I'll treat you to a meal another day."

Jiang Tao smiled and exchanged a polite remark with Bai Yulan.

"Hehe, you little rascal, you invited me to dinner at my family's restaurant?"

Bai Yulan was amused by Jiang Tao's words.

Her hotel is the best hotel in the entire Pingxian County.

"Haha, that's true! Then I owe Sister Bai a favor. If you ever need my help in the future, please don't hesitate to ask."

Jiang Tao thought about it and agreed. Inviting someone to dinner might be appropriate for others, but it wasn't quite suitable for Bai Yulan.

"No need. Speaking of which, I still owe you my life. This little thing is nothing."

Bai Yulan spoke casually; she really didn't take this little thing that happened today seriously.

I never even considered using it to repay Jiang Tao's favor.

While Jiang Tao and Bai Yulan were chatting.

In Lizhen, about 8 kilometers away from the Magnolia Hotel.

Inside Jiantao Supermarket, a tall, burly male customer was holding up several bags of milk powder for the elderly and shouting loudly.

They seemed afraid that other shoppers in the supermarket wouldn't hear them.

"These bags of milk powder were bought from your supermarket, and I still have the receipt!"

"You think it's not yours just because you say it's not yours?"

"So you're trying to shirk responsibility when something goes wrong!"

"Let me tell you, this isn't over yet!"

"We've already reported this to the Industry and Commerce Bureau and the Food Safety Bureau! You unscrupulous merchants should just wait to be punished!"

"Everyone should pay attention to the expiration date when buying things!"

"The owner of this supermarket is heartless; he keeps all kinds of expired food on the shelves and sells them normally!"

"Luckily, my aunt discovered the formula was expired when she drank it, otherwise who knows what might have happened!"

Beside the tall man, three young men who had come with him were loudly criticizing him, one after another.

Several elderly people who were shopping in the supermarket stopped selecting items and looked at everyone with curiosity.

These elderly folks are all local residents. They come out to stroll around the supermarket and grab a watermelon while they're at it in the morning. It's so interesting!

"Brothers, there must be some misunderstanding here."

"As you can see, our barcode scanner simply cannot scan the product code of your item."

"This product is definitely not from our supermarket; it must be a misunderstanding."

Beside her, Zhang Xiaoyan was so anxious that tears were almost streaming down her face.

In the past few days, seven or eight groups of customers have come to the store saying they bought expired products.

However, she, Jiang He, and the store's staff had checked the inventory several times but had not found any expired goods.

It's obvious that someone is deliberately trying to cause trouble!
They buy things at the supermarket, then switch them with expired products, and then come back to the supermarket to cause trouble.

Although they knew the other party was following this "script," Jiang He and Zhang Xiaoyan had no evidence.

As for not being able to scan the QR code...

The other party insists that they bought it from your store and claims that the inability to scan it is a problem with your barcode scanner.

This is a controversial issue.

Other shoppers in the supermarket will naturally side with the supermarket as fellow customers and will also feel that the problem lies with the supermarket.

"You're just making excuses. We can all testify that we bought it from your store!"

"You're just trying to shirk responsibility, you unscrupulous businessmen!"

"Just wait! You have absolutely no integrity; your supermarket won't be far from going out of business!"

"You unscrupulous merchants must be exposed so that everyone will be more discerning and won't fall for your tricks again!"

Inside the supermarket, several young people were taking photos or live-streaming.

After their commotion, how could the business possibly operate normally?

Other shoppers in the supermarket initially watched the commotion and found it quite interesting.

After a while, it got boring, and one by one, people put down their purchases and left.

Outside the supermarket, inside a Toyota Prado.

A young man with an arrogant appearance and a parted hairstyle was smoking a cigarette while touching the snow-white thigh of a girl in the passenger seat.

"Brother Feng, it's been several days, are you still not able to take over this supermarket?"

Jiao Jiao turned her gaze away from the supermarket and looked at Li Yifeng sitting in the driver's seat, saying something in a coquettish voice.

"Don't worry, Jiao Jiao, it'll be in the next couple of days. I'll definitely get this supermarket for you."

Li Yifeng glanced at the brothers causing trouble in the supermarket, chuckled, and slipped his hand under Jiao Jiao's short skirt.

"Thanks, Brother Feng! My parents will be so happy!"

Jiao Jiao was filled with anticipation as she thought about the life her parents would lead after taking over the supermarket and earning tens of thousands of yuan a month.

In order to get this supermarket, she has put in a lot of effort on Li Yifeng these days.

Jingle Bell--

A cell phone suddenly rang inside the car.

Li Yifeng paused for a moment while exploring the short skirt, and then took out his phone from his pocket with his other hand.

The caller ID on my phone screen read "Second Uncle".

Like a Sichuan opera face-changing act, Li Yifeng's arrogant expression vanished instantly, replaced by seriousness and respect.

"Hey, Second Uncle."

"Oh right, my girlfriend likes this supermarket, so..."

"Ah? Sister Bai? Is she Sister Bai from the Magnolia Hotel?"

"Okay, okay, I understand."

"I understand, Second Uncle."

After hanging up his second uncle's call, Li Yifeng quickly found "Sun Meng's" number in his phone's contacts and called him.

"Hey Mengzi! Get out of here right now, and don't ever come to Jiantao Supermarket again."

"Stop talking nonsense! Get your ass out here right now!"

"Oh, and before you get out, apologize to the boss and his wife!"

"Be sincere, do you understand? You need to let the other person feel your sincerity!"

"You must gain their forgiveness! If they don't forgive you, you'd better stay kneeling there and don't come out!"

"Hang up! Hurry up, just do what I tell you to do!"

Looking at Li Yifeng's anxious expression and listening to what he was saying, Jiao Jiao was completely bewildered.

"Brother Feng, what happened?"

"What the hell happened?!"

"You've fucking gotten me into a huge mess!" After hanging up on Sun Meng, Li Yifeng abruptly turned to look at Jiao Jiao in the passenger seat, his gaze suddenly filled with utter disgust.

"Huh? What's wrong, Brother Feng?"

Jiao Jiao was completely bewildered by Li Yifeng's sudden change of expression and his scolding.

"The owner of this supermarket is Sister Bai's friend!"

"Do you know Sister Bai? She's Sister Bai from Ping County!"

"I must have been blind to offend Sister Bai over such a trivial matter as your family's!"

Li Yifeng grew angrier the more he thought about it, and with a snap, he opened the passenger door.

"Get out, get out of here! Get as far away as you can!"

"Brother Feng, you, I..."

Jiao Jiao was brought to tears by Li Yifeng's sudden change in temperament, and stared at him with her innocent, large eyes.

Last night he called her "sweetie," but today he's telling her to get lost.

The contrast is too great!

"Get out of here!"

Li Yifeng waved his hand angrily, reached out and pulled the passenger door shut, leaving Jiao Jiao outside.

He could only silently pray that his father would find out he had offended Sister Bai.

If Dad finds out he's offended Sister Bai, he'll definitely give him a good scolding!

Jingle Bell--

Li Yifeng's phone rang again.

I picked up my phone and saw that the caller ID showed "Dad".

Li Yifeng's eye twitched violently.

This is exactly what I feared!

as predicted.

The moment the call connected, a rough male voice burst into furious profanity.

at the same time.

Inside the supermarket.

Sun Meng and his buddies, who had just hung up on Li Yifeng, looked at each other.

The group of people who had just been acting out a drama suddenly fell silent, and they were all stunned.

The plot is completely different from the script!
Zhang Xiaoyan, Jiang He, and several shop assistants saw Sun Meng and his group, who had been making a lot of noise just moments before, suddenly seem to have been put on pause.

Their faces were full of curiosity.

"that……"

Just moments ago, Sun Meng was filled with intense emotions and boundless anger. He looked at Zhang Xiaoyan, whose face was still streaked with tears, and Jiang He, who remained silent, with a fawning gaze.

"Um, cough cough, actually, we just..."

"Sister-in-law, we were just playing a little joke on you all, just having some fun, hahaha..."

"Yes, that's right, we're filming some funny videos, haha."

"I'm so sorry, everyone. I've startled you all. I apologize to everyone."

"I'm so sorry, brother and sister-in-law, please don't take it to heart."

"I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry~"

As he spoke, Sun Meng bowed apologetically to Jiang He and the others.

"..."

Jiang He and the others witnessed Sun Meng transform from an arrogant, domineering figure into a subservient and obsequious one, and they were all filled with doubt.

"Brother, sister-in-law, I'm so sorry! These things really aren't from our shop; they're just props for our show."

"Hehe, yes, these are all props."

"Please, sirs, don't hold a grudge against us. We promise you will never bother your business again."

"I promise!"

Seeing that Jiang He and Zhang Xiaoyan remained silent, Sun Meng continued to apologize and offer assurances.

The henchmen who had come with Sun Meng to bolster his reputation were all racking their brains, completely baffled as to what was wrong with Brother Sun.

Just a moment ago they were so arrogant, threatening to report them and make them regret it.

Why have you suddenly become so humble?

"Uh, you guys, you guys..."

Zhang Xiaoyan was completely bewildered when she saw the "unfriendly guest" who had just been fierce suddenly become meek and started calling her "sister-in-law."

Jiang He, who was standing silently beside her, was equally bewildered.

I was just a shrewd businessman, how did I become the elder brother and sister-in-law?

Several shop assistants nearby were equally bewildered, unable to understand why Sun Meng had suddenly changed his expression.

Could it be because of that phone call just now?
Who made that phone call? What did they say?
In an instant, everyone's curiosity about the drama reached its peak.

"I'm so sorry, sister-in-law. I must have startled you. I sincerely apologize."

Seeing that Zhang Xiaoyan and Jiang He weren't difficult people to talk to, Sun Meng continued to apologize.

"Uh, it's okay, it's alright, it's good that the misunderstanding has been cleared up."

Zhang Xiaoyan didn't know who Sun Meng had answered the phone with, or what they had said that made him suddenly become so polite.

But none of this matters.

In her opinion, the most important thing is to clear up the misunderstanding and calm things down.

She never considered holding Sun Meng and his group accountable, nor did she expect them to compensate her for any losses.

She would be content as long as they didn't cause trouble at the store and her supermarket could operate normally in the future.

"Sorry, brother and sister-in-law, we'll be leaving now so as not to disturb your business any longer!"

After Sun Meng finished speaking, he waved and led the few guys who had come with him away from the supermarket in a sorry state.

Seeing that things had calmed down and the troublemakers had left, Zhang Xiaoyan, Jiang He, and several supermarket employees finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Everyone looked at each other with somewhat bewildered expressions.

Zhang Xiaoyan looked at her husband and said with absolute certainty:
"It must have been Xiao Tao who helped us!"

"Yes, now that you mention it, I remember!"

"This morning, Xiao Tao called me and said he would resolve the issues at the supermarket by this morning."

Jiang He immediately thought of the phone call he had with his younger brother that morning.

"That can't be wrong, it must be it!"

Upon hearing Jiang He's words, Zhang Xiaoyan was immediately certain that Jiang Tao had helped them.

In this kind of situation, no one will stand up for you or help you for no reason.

Subsequently, Jiang He called Jiang Tao and told him about the situation at the store, receiving a clear answer from Jiang Tao.

Jiang Tao told his elder brother and sister-in-law the truth not to seek credit or anything like that.

It was simply to reassure the two of them, so they wouldn't have to worry about this or that anymore.

After the phone call ended, Jiang He and Zhang Xiaoyan looked much more relaxed.

the other side.

After hanging up the call with his older brother, Jiang Tao slowly drove his car to the front of his house in Jiangjiazhuang.

Xu Li and Jiang Xue were out shopping with their mother-in-law in Ping County and weren't home.

He came back alone, which made things easier for him.

After parking the car, I got out of the car and opened the trunk.

Jiang Tao saw that there were about a dozen empty bottles of Feitian Moutai piled up in the trunk.

Among them was a bottle that shimmered with a dark golden light.

This bottle is clearly the special bottle mentioned in the intelligence report. (End of Chapter)
