Rebirth in 1980, the rise of the golden age

"I asked you to have someone keep an eye on the Spring Breeze Bakery. What are they doing?"

After this incident with the poisoned bread, Zhong Yuanbing knew that he was completely at odds with Li Youcai. Zhong Yuanbing didn't believe that Li Youcai would be so kind-hearted that he would not think of revenge after suffering a great loss.

So they became more cautious and sent people to monitor Li Youcai's actions.

"Things are still the same over there, nothing special. Mr. Li goes to get off work as usual every day, and occasionally takes his wife and children to eat at the restaurant, but he doesn't see many people there."

Zhong Yuanbing frowned slightly, then shook his head.

"Impossible. I've gotten to know this guy. He's definitely not the type to accept defeat in silence. The longer he doesn't move, the more likely it is that he's holding back. Keep your eyes on him, and send people to Taihe and Hongwei counties to investigate and see what he's up to."

"I understand, brother Bing. I'll send someone right away."

"In terms of intelligence and ability, you, Zhao Hu, are a hundred times better than A Biao. I have high hopes for you. Work hard. After I take over Mr. Li's business, I will hand it over to you." Zhong Yuanbing started his promises again.

But in this day and age, some people just fall for it.

"Thank you for your cultivation, brother Bing. Don't worry, I, Ah Hu, will die for you!"

"Go ahead and be more careful."

"Yes, Brother Bing, I'll get busy then." Zhao Hu left excitedly.

Zhong Yuanbing picked up the phone and dialed a number according to the number in the phone book.

"Hello, Director Gong, it's me, Zhong Yuanbing."

"Hehe..., I'd like to treat you to a meal..."

-----------------

A day later, at the bakery, Wang Qiang and his capable salesmen were ready to embark on a new journey.

According to Li Youcai's expansion plan, the next place Chunfeng Bread wanted to enter was Sudong County, south of Teng County.

The two counties are more than 100 kilometers apart, which is within the supply range of the main factory.

Sudong County has a larger population and greater market potential than Teng County. If the market in Sudong County can be successfully opened up, it will be very beneficial for the bakery.

Moreover, this time Wang Qiang and his team are carrying out a cross-city operation, allowing Chunfeng Bread to go out of Taihe City for the first time, which has a completely different significance from before.

In order to encourage everyone, Li Youcai organized a ceremony.

Li Youcai personally put big red flowers on Wang Qiang and the five salesmen. There were also people in the factory beating gongs and drums, creating a lively scene.

"Your trip to Sudong County to open up the market is of great significance to our factory. This marks the first time that our bread has gone beyond Taihe City."

"As long as this shot can be launched, our Chunfeng brand bread will reach a new level and will go beyond Taihe and spread to the whole province!"

"Please rest assured, Director, and all the comrades in the factory, we will definitely complete our mission, open up the market in Sudong County, and put our factory's products on the shelves of the Sudong County Supply and Marketing Cooperative!" Wang Qiang, wearing a big red flower, stood in front of the five people and shouted loudly.

Wow... The factory workers below applauded.

Li Youcai clapped his hands and nodded at Wang Qiang: "I wish you a successful completion of your mission and look forward to your triumphant return!"

"set off!"

Wang Qiang shouted, then climbed into the cab of the truck behind him first.

The other five people also got on two trucks, loaded with goods, and set off together for the neighboring Sudong County.

Wang Rong and Chu Xinyan stood together, watching the truck going away, wondering what they were thinking.

The shadow of the truck disappeared at the end of the road, and the factory returned to peace.

In the grove at the gate, two figures took in the entire scene.

Two large trucks drove south directly to Sudong County.

With previous experience, Wang Qiang and his group of six were familiar with the route and quickly took root in Sudong County and began to expand their sales channels.

On the other hand, after Dalinzi and Long Xu returned to Taihe City, they began to build relationships as Li Youcai had instructed.

It doesn’t matter if you don’t know the leader.

Dalinzi and Long Xu started to get in touch with the lower-level clerks, and then got to know them step by step, treating them to meals, cigarettes and good wine.

They soon got to know some public officials in Taihe City. Although they were not important figures, the two of them continued with great pleasure.

Almost every meal was held in state-owned restaurants, and the guests were staff from various departments.

Shuangfu State-owned Restaurant is a relatively famous restaurant in Taihe City. The chef of the restaurant is very good at making braised big carp, which is a must-order dish for almost every table of diners who come here to eat. Many people even come here just to eat the fish.

Zhong Yuanbing had offended Li Youcai, so naturally he would not go to Zhenweiju to entertain guests again. Moreover, Director Gong was in Taihe City, so Zhong Yuanbing chose this place as the venue for this entertainment.

However, the environment of Shuangfu Hotel is far from comparable to that of Zhenweiju.

Not only is the private room very small, but the facilities inside are also incomparable. If Director Gong didn't like fish, Zhong Yuanbing would have dared to choose this place.

Zhong Yuanbing and Director Gong sat next to each other, drinking Maotai and eating braised fish.

"Director Gong, what are the city's plans for contracting out the guesthouse? The new secretary has been here for so long, and the Taihe Hotel has already opened its bidding process, but why is there still no movement at the old guesthouse?"

"I know you're anxious, but it's useless no matter how anxious you are. I went to report on my work to Secretary Bian yesterday and specifically mentioned this matter. Do you know what Secretary Bian said?"

"How to say?"

"Just two words, wait!"

"In my opinion, this matter will be resolved at least next year." Director Gong curled his lips.

Zhong Yuanbing was anxious about the guesthouse being contracted out, but Director Gong was not anxious at all.

Because even Zhong Yuanbing didn't know that he was not the only one who had set his sights on the old guesthouse, and there were more than two or three people who had asked Director Gong for help.

When Zhong Yuanbing heard that he had to wait until next year, he immediately became anxious: "No, if we wait until next year, who knows what will happen in the meantime. The longer the night, the more trouble there will be."

"Director Gong, my uncle has always told me that you are very capable and has always asked me to learn from you. Don't worry about the tuition. I will definitely satisfy you."

"Please think of a solution."

Director Gong put down his chopsticks and said, "This isn't really a matter of whether I want to do something or not. Secretary Bian has given the order to wait. Who dares to move? There's nothing we can do. Just wait."

Outside the private room, a group of people passed by. Dalinzi and Long Xu led several people from the Industrial and Commercial Bureau inside.

As luck would have it, Zhao Hu came out of the bathroom at this time and saw it happen.

Zhao Hu, who had become more cautious, did not return to the box, but followed quietly behind, hiding outside the door and eavesdropping on the conversation between Dalinzi and others inside.
