Rebirth 78: After being jilted at the altar, I reached the pinnacle!

The crowd in the supermarket was drawn to this unexpected visitor and stopped to watch.

The arrival of Vice Mayor Li Guanghua undoubtedly added a tense atmosphere to Jinyuan Supermarket.

"Wow, I didn't expect our city to have such a modern supermarket." Li Guanghua looked around, a hint of disdain in his eyes. "Pretty good, looks like you've put in a lot of effort."

Li Hanliang smiled slightly, stepped forward, and said respectfully, "Vice Mayor, it is a great honor for you to personally visit our store. Our Jinyuan Supermarket has always been committed to serving and facilitating the citizens, and we hope to bring you a satisfactory shopping experience."

Li Guanghua looked coldly at Li Hanliang, then turned to Zhang Qingfeng, a slight smile playing on his lips: "Oh, so Secretary Zhang is here too. Why didn't you tell me beforehand?"

Zhang Qingfeng stepped forward and responded politely, "Vice Mayor Li, this is a chain supermarket opened by my good friend Li Hanliang. It was very popular on its opening day. I'm just here to show my support as a friend. I don't think I need to report this to you, do I?"

"Hmph." Li Guanghua sneered and turned to walk into the store. "Since it's a newly opened supermarket, I have to take a good look and see what's different about it."

The surrounding crowd began to whisper among themselves:

"Is this a city leader? Why does he seem so unfriendly?"

"Who knows? Maybe they're just checking things out, but this supermarket is really great."

An elderly woman couldn't help but say, "It's not easy for people to open a shop, the leaders should provide more support."

Li Guanghua walked back and forth in the store, sometimes picking up some items to examine them carefully, and sometimes asking the staff about their prices and origins.

To be honest, his actions made the atmosphere in the store even more tense.

Finally, he arrived at the fresh produce section, stopped, pointed to several boxes of fruit, and asked, "Where did these fruits come from? Have they passed quarantine?"

The shop assistant in charge of that area seemed a little flustered, but still tried to remain calm and replied, "These are all sourced from legitimate channels and have undergone strict inspection, so please feel free to purchase."

Li Guanghua glanced at her, then turned to Li Hanliang, raising his voice slightly: "Mr. Li, I hope you can ensure the quality of every product and prevent any defective products from entering the market."

At this moment, a passing customer overheard the conversation and couldn't help but chime in, "The service at this store is exceptionally good, and the product quality is also superb. We've all seen that."

Another passerby chimed in, "Yes, the prices here are fair, the goods are fresh, much better than the stalls outside, and there's a wider variety of products. We don't have to run around buying things anymore, it's very convenient."

Li Guanghua ignored their comments and continued looking at Li Hanliang, saying, "I will send relevant personnel here to conduct a thorough inspection. If any problems are found, you should know the consequences."

Faced with Li Guanghua's threat, Li Hanliang calmly said, "Thank you for your reminder. We will actively cooperate with all the work. Please rest assured that Jinyuan Supermarket will strictly implement the relevant national standards and there will be no problems."

Li Guanghua's eyes seemed to flicker for a moment, but in the end he did not continue to exert pressure. Instead, he simply nodded and left.

Watching Li Guanghua's figure disappear into the distance, an elderly woman nearby remarked with a sigh, "It seems like this leader came here on purpose to cause trouble. Young man, did you offend him?"

Li Hanliang smiled slightly and replied firmly, "Thank you for your concern. I believe that as long as we do our work diligently, there is no problem that we cannot overcome, and they will not be able to find any fault with us."

Although Li Hanliang appeared relaxed at this moment, he understood that the days ahead would be full of unknowns and challenges.

Zhang Qingfeng patted his shoulder lightly: "Don't worry, let's take it one step at a time. Since you've decided to make a name for yourself on this land, then face all difficulties bravely."

Even after Li Guanghua left, the atmosphere at Jinyuan Supermarket remained somewhat tense. Although the staff outwardly resumed their normal work, everyone was more vigilant than ever.

Li Hanliang and Zhang Qingfeng stood by the cashier, watching the endless stream of people outside, and fell into deep thought.

"Brother Zhang, do you think Li Guanghua's visit this time is really a coincidence?" Li Hanliang asked softly.

Zhang Qingfeng frowned and said in a low voice, "Obviously not. His visit this time was clearly well-prepared, and his attitude was also a bit off. I guess he was sent by a big shot behind the Jing family. But don't worry, as long as you don't make any mistakes, they can't do anything to you."

Li Hanliang nodded, his eyes firm: "I know that no matter what they do, as long as our product quality and service are good enough, they won't be able to find any fault with us."

Zhang Qingfeng smiled slightly and patted Li Hanliang on the shoulder, "Well said. And now it's not us who should be worried, but them. As long as we are well prepared, we don't need to be afraid of them."

Just then, a customer came over with a basket of fruit to pay.

Seeing Li Hanliang beside her, the middle-aged woman excitedly said, "Young man, your supermarket is really great! It has a wide variety of products and the prices are fair. I'll definitely come here often!"

Li Hanliang responded with a smile: "Thank you for your support. We will continue to work hard to provide better services and products for everyone."

The woman nodded in satisfaction and turned to leave.

Another young woman followed closely behind, picked up a bottle of mineral water, and said to her friend, "Look, this supermarket is so convenient. It has everything, and the prices aren't expensive. I won't have to run around to buy groceries anymore."

Her friend chimed in, "Yeah, I just heard that the deputy mayor sound rather unfriendly. It's really strange. Such a great place should receive more support. I really don't know what this leader is thinking."

These words brought Li Hanliang some comfort; at least the customers' opinions of the supermarket were still quite positive.

However, the crisis has not been resolved.

The following afternoon, several uniformed inspectors appeared at the supermarket entrance, led by Li Guanghua.

"Mr. Li, we are here today to conduct a comprehensive inspection, and we hope you will cooperate fully." Li Guanghua's tone was firm and unquestionable.

Li Hanliang smiled slightly and said calmly, "Welcome, we will definitely cooperate fully. Please feel free to inspect."

Passersby stopped and gathered at the supermarket entrance to watch.
