Reborn in 1991, I opened supermarkets all over the world.

A warm yellow light shone through the window.

Lin Siyan held her Sony Walkman, with earphones in both ears, and hummed along softly to the spinning cassette tape, occasionally letting out a silly laugh.

Therefore, she didn't hear the sound of the door opening and closing outside at all.

Sitting in the living room watching TV, Lin's mother glanced at the front door and said coldly, "So you still know how to come back?"

As he changed into his slippers, Lin's father said, "So much to do. Do you think I don't want a peaceful life?"

"So you don't have to worry about anything at home, big or small, right?"

"Get to the point," Lin's father said impatiently.

Criminal investigation work is already exhausting. I thought home was a safe haven, but sometimes it's not as relaxing as having a cup of tea and chatting with colleagues at work.

Lin's mother picked up the remote and turned off the TV.

Seeing her attitude, Lin's father realized that something important might have really happened in the family.

So, without even taking a sip of water, he quickly sat down on the sofa.

"Your precious daughter is in love," Lin's mother said earnestly.

Mr. Lin frowned: "To be honest, I don't think much of that Li Wei. He's irresponsible..."

"Li Wei? Yang Wei, my foot!" Lin's mother said angrily.

"And who is Yang Wei?"

"..."

Seeing Lin's mother's silent expression, Lin's father sighed, "What's wrong now?"

Lin's mother stood up from the sofa, leaning against the TV: "Alright, alright, Lin Shouyi, just consider this as me reporting to you. Please listen carefully and then give your valuable advice: At Siyan's birthday party, a boy gave her a Sony Walkman worth more than two thousand yuan. Guoguo said that he also spent more than forty thousand yuan to buy a warehouse from the county grain station."

"This is no ordinary family," Lin's father murmured.

"I asked around. His father retired due to illness and opened a bicycle repair shop; his mother works at the county supply and marketing cooperative."

"Where did he get so much money?"

"Here's the problem: he's only around twenty years old, where did he get so much money?"

Mr. Lin nodded solemnly.

If you work for a respectable company, it's impossible to save this much money by the time you're around twenty.

Doing business together is possible, but the chances are slim, and the other party is too young and has no family background, so he doesn't really trust them.

Relatively speaking, making money through illegal or gray-area income is a faster way to earn money.

Society is so treacherous, and my daughter is so innocent; it's time to show off the skills of a seasoned criminal investigator.

After thinking for a moment, Lin's father asked again, "Since you've had direct contact with him, did you discover anything?"

Lin's mother chuckled awkwardly, "Judging from my intuition, he's a rather sensible young man, and quite handsome and spirited."

At this point, Lin's mother glanced at Lin Zheng's room and said in a low voice, "With just a few words, he's made your dad as happy as a child. Tell me, if he were to try to fool our Siyan, wouldn't she fall for it?"

Lin's father became increasingly aware of the seriousness of the situation.

Even though your own little cabbage will eventually be eaten by a pig, you can't let it be eaten by Pigsy (a character from Journey to the West).

Also, has it actually been taken advantage of yet?

"Brother Feng, why did you put a picture of Pigsy in front of the banner?" Gu Quan looked at the two trucks loaded with goods, completely puzzled.

"It's festive and eye-catching," Lu Zifeng said, then checked the words on the banner again.

The large characters read: "New Era Self-Service Supermarket Grand Opening on July 1st".

The smaller print reads: "Spend over 20 yuan and receive a free carton of eggs."

He and Gu Quan each escorted a truck.

Wei Jun rode in the same car as Lu Zifeng, while Gu Quan rode in the same car as a temporary sales promoter.

The temporary sales promoters were mainly responsible for shouting "GG" through a handheld megaphone after the truck entered the downtown area of ​​Dongxian County.

Gu Quan originally said he could do the job too, so there was no need to waste money.

However, after looking Gu Quan up and down, Lu Zifeng felt that it was inappropriate.

What's the difference between the notorious street hustler from Dongxian Street opening a shopping mall and Sun Erniang selling steamed buns?

This propaganda method, which seems noisy in later generations, was still quite eye-catching in 1991.

Not to mention the whole county, at least a third of the people living on the street know that a self-service store opened in the residential area on July 1st, and they even gave away eggs.

Over the next few days, Lu Zifeng also prepared several thousand color flyers.

After the truck stopped, Qiao Ling, along with Jiang Ce, Zhong Qin, and a group of brothers, came to greet them.

Lu Zifeng jumped out of the car and waved his hand: "Brothers, unload the goods!"

A group of people surrounded the two trucks.

Those who used to charge ahead in fights are now scattered and lagging behind;

Those who used to lag behind in fights are now charging ahead.

Everyone is playing their own role.

Qiao Ling held Lu Zifeng's hand with one hand and used a handkerchief in the other to wipe the sweat from his forehead: "You must be exhausted. Look how dirty you are."

Gu Quan glanced at it, then realized something was wrong, and looked again: "Hmm?"

Jiang Ce walked over with a smile, patted Gu Quan on the shoulder, and then winked at Lu Zifeng and Qiao Ling: "How about it? Didn't expect that, did you?"

Gu Quan sneered: "There are things I haven't thought of, and things you haven't thought of either."

"Hiss~" Jiang Ce was puzzled: "When did Brother Quan learn tongue twisters?"

Gu Quan remained silent.

He has been following Lu Zifeng around lately and has gotten used to the eight-character principle of "keeping quiet when things happen and asking for advice afterward".

Boxes of goods were passed from one store to another.

Zhong Qin stood guard at the door, guiding the goods according to the pre-arranged plan: "Put the shampoo inside, the drinks against the glass wall, the oil, salt, soy sauce, vinegar, and tea on the left side, and the snacks near the door..."

In short, put necessities and valuables in the back. Put things you buy casually closer to the counter.

With many hands making light work, they quickly emptied the cargo from both trucks.

The specific placement and storage can only be handled by Qiao Ling and Zhong Qin; the other brothers can't help.

Office of the Director of Dongxian Canned Food Factory.

Zhou Hai placed Jiang Ce's resignation letter in front of Jiang's mother: "I tried to persuade him to stay, but his mind is made up."

Jiang's mother supported her forehead with her hand, her eyes slightly closed, her lower abdomen rising and falling continuously.

After raising their son for twenty years, he finally broke free from the path his parents had planned for him.

Su Min walked in holding a flyer for New Era Self-Service Supermarket. She didn't notice Jiang's mother's mood and slammed the flyer on the desk: "Look at this. It's a supplier that doesn't overlap much with our Huidong Department Store. This kid has already decided to avoid the limelight for a while."

Zhou Hai picked up the leaflet and examined it, a slight smile playing on his lips. "There's a document from above. To address the overstocking of supply and marketing cooperatives and free up capital, a one-time price reduction campaign is underway to clear out excess inventory. Discuss this with Director Chen of the supply and marketing cooperative. We're not trying to wage a price war with private enterprises; we're just responding to the document from above."
