Chapter 101: You need to be

When he arrived at the store, there were two vans loading goods. After taking a look, Han Songlin walked directly inside.

'Liu Yi, you've gotten prettier every time I see you!'

Liu Yi blushed slightly, then looked unconcerned, and even started to fight back: 'Judging by the boss's beaming face, he must be doing well in the capital, right?'

Han Songlin couldn't help but smile. This person, having just arrived in an unfamiliar environment, might appear to be weak.

But this sense of weakness is actually an instinctive disguise.

A way to blend in with the new environment.

When someone arrives in a new environment, they might appear to be very strong. Anyway, all kinds of external expressions are meant to help better integrate into the environment.

After a long period of contact, it is only then that one discovers that everyone is not what they initially appeared to be.

Obviously, Liu Yi has now settled in well here.

'Your big wave hairstyle doesn't suit you, you should have straight hair with a slight curl at the end, it looks better that way.'

Nowadays, curly hair is very popular on the streets, not just women like to perm their hair, even some men like to get a perm as well.

In Han Songlin's eyes, to be honest, it's a bit old-fashioned.

Liu Yi looked at Han Songlin suspiciously and then looked down at his shawl hair again: 'Does the boss know about this?'

'Your boss, I, knows a lot more than you think!'

Han Songlin asked everyone to come together for a meeting and listened to the latest sales situation of baijiu in eastern Guangdong.

'We have already established a complete sales network in all prefecture-level cities in eastern Guangdong, especially in Yangcheng and Pengcheng. In addition, our Jinliufu wine is also trying to enter Xiangjiang, Haojiang and the island of Taiwan.'

Han Songlin didn't say anything. On the Xiangjiang side, due to the influence of the corrupt country, local baijiu consumption is actually not large.

So don't look at its developed economy, Han Songlin doesn't have much hope either.

As for Haojiang?

The population is relatively small again.

It's the island of Formosa that produces mainly light-flavoured baijiu, which developed from the brewing process of Fenjiu, and the distillery is in Jinmen.

Trying to enter the market?

It's very difficult.

So when it comes to exporting baijiu, Han Songlin's attitude is to just let nature take its course.

If it works out, that's great, and if not, no disappointment.

'Developing the markets in these three places doesn't require too many resources, and as for exporting baijiu, just let nature take its course.'

Each region has its own culture, and baijiu is a special product of China.

'Let's talk about the sales situation in eastern Guangdong first.'

Zhang Xin coughed lightly: 'Boss, we have sold 70,000 cases of baijiu in eastern Guangdong this month, with sales of nearly 30 million yuan.'

30 million yuan!

Han Songlin couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief. The advertising had indeed not been in vain.

'Not bad!' Han Songlin smiled directly, saying, 'Your income this month will be pretty good.'

'Hey, that's also thanks to the boss!'

Han Songlin shook his head with a smile and said after a moment's thought, 'After this, a sales company will be set up specifically in this part of eastern Guangdong, and Zhang Xin will be the general manager.'

The results seem good now, but Han Songlin clearly feels that the consumption potential of eastern Guangdong has not yet been fully tapped.

Therefore, it is necessary to give a greater stimulus.

'In the future, the sales side will be separated from Fule Liquor. It can't be like this, with one team doing two jobs.'

Han Songlin also met with some local distributors in Yuedong in the following period.

They can all go directly to Fule Liquor to pick up their goods.

Of course, they will handle the transportation themselves.

Who are the consumers of high-end baijiu?

It doesn't need to be said so explicitly, but it's that people who buy good wine don't drink it, and people who drink good wine don't buy it.

In 2013, when restrictions were placed on government spending, the liquor market collapsed instantly. One can imagine what the liquor market was like before.

Therefore, Han Songlin did not want Fule Liquor to be associated with this, so he had to distance himself from it.

At least on the surface, we have no relationship.

Regardless of the facts, the appearance must be maintained.

This superficiality is a thing that can be seen in all aspects of society.

Next, Han Songlin did not stay in Yangcheng for long, but went to Pengcheng.

At this time, Pengcheng was not yet one of the four first-tier cities in China. Economically, Pengcheng was indeed developed, but compared to the capital city, Shanghai and Yangcheng were still far behind, and even Suzhou was better.

However, in Pengcheng, Han Songlin saw great economic vitality.

It had to be said that Pengcheng lived up to its reputation as a special economic zone.

When I was young, I heard a story about Pengcheng: someone who had drifted to Pengcheng had nowhere to live, so they built a shack on an empty lot in a suburb as a residence.

Then, when demolition came, they were given hundreds of thousands of yuan in compensation.

To be honest, when I heard this story as a child, I envied them a little, but didn't think much of it.

But now, I think about it, and there's really quite a lot of information in this story.

The only way to solve your worries is to get rich quickly; the only way to get rich quickly is to be eligible for resettlement!

If you encounter demolition, it's a chance to get rich.

Okay, not to harp on that, but what Han Songlin wants to say now is that the previous story contains the rapid development of Pengcheng.

Judging from what Han Songlin has seen, this is also the case.

Pengcheng is full of construction sites.

Tower cranes are constantly spinning, transporting all kinds of construction materials from the ground to the dozens of metres, or even hundreds of metres, of the work area.

Huge trucks constantly travel along the roads, some carrying muck, others carrying materials.

Excavators are roaring non-stop, and forklifts are growling.

Even late at night, if there is a tight deadline, there is no rest.

The next 30 years were years of continuous urbanisation in China.

During these 30 years, China also built modern cities.

There is room for improvement, but the flaws do not detract from the beauty.

Pengcheng has developed rapidly in the era of electronics and the internet. A representative of this is Hua Beiqiang, but back in 1993, none of this existed yet.

Therefore, Han Songlin wanted to go and see the legendary prosperity, which was now unlikely.

After a moment of disappointment, Han Songlin didn't care too much.

Buy a house?

Han Songlin really didn't.

At this time, the housing prices in Pengcheng were too expensive, and Han Songlin knew that when the Asian economic crisis hit in 1997, Hong Kong, which had been seriously affected, would be in urgent need of capital, and many people would sell their properties in Pengcheng.

At that time, just come and buy at the bottom.

When will the time be right to buy low?

Han Songlin was lost in thought, looking across the river to Hong Kong.

It seemed that Hong Kong's property prices would also be halved in the economic crisis.

But that would not be the lowest point, which would not come until around the year 2000.

He shook his head. Having come back to life, was he thinking of speculating in real estate, which was a bit too unambitious?
