Go back in time and be a chaebol

Chapter 243 Giant Yibu (fourth update, seeking positioning)

For German women under occupation, the best choice if they want to survive is to marry a foreigner, and marrying the occupying army is the most realistic choice for many German women.

It was almost the only way for them to leave Germany.

For these German women, leaving Germany means leaving hunger, poverty, and all the hardships of life.

A ticket to go overseas is, for German women, the hope of a new life!

In fact, not only Germany, but also the people of the victorious countries in Europe were not having an easy time. Whether it was France or the United Kingdom, the former lived in poverty, while the latter lived in scarcity.

No one's life is easy, it's just relatively easy.

Of course, not everyone's life is so difficult. German women find big trees to enjoy the shade, and the same goes for British women.

And many women in the UK do this. During the war, when their husbands and boyfriends were fighting overseas for the British Empire, these British women would use their bodies to please the American soldiers and exchange money from them. Cigarettes, cans and other supplies.

In order to survive, many British women turned their bodies into objects that could be traded. If Britain gained something, it was that at the end of the war, those British soldiers found that their girlfriends and wives were unexpectedly pregnant and even gave birth to children when they returned home.

Well, this is very British. After all, this is a common thing in Britain since the Age of Discovery.

Due to livelihood constraints, many people are forced to make some choices.

In fact, the same is true for Stana and Ji Li. If there had been no war, their lives and Li Yi'an would not have had any intersection. They would have continued to live a relaxed and comfortable life. However, the war changed everything, and the war brought many changes to their lives. Too many hardships.

But it was also the war that introduced them to Li Yi'an, and it was from that time that their lives changed fundamentally. Since they met Li Yi'an, they no longer have to worry about food and trivial matters in life.

And as the manager and manager's secretary of Zhenhua Company in London, they can naturally benefit from the company's logistics. As long as the goods can be shipped to the UK, they will be arranged for them as soon as possible. After all, their status is special. of.

When many British people were worrying about bread, they could often enjoy red wine, steak and other various luxuries. Even French perfume and red wine were delivered to them as soon as France was liberated. in hand.

However, this does not mean that they have no worries. Stana has been very worried recently. It is definitely not because she learned about her husband's death. In Britain, as early as the Victorian era, there was a saying - "The husband died abroad." It's like having no husband." In fact, from the day she left Southeast Asia and returned to London, she was de facto single. This is an unspoken rule in the UK. Why do so many British soldiers accept the pregnancy of their wives or lovers? The illegitimate son of an American soldier, because this is just a British tradition.

The reason why she is worried now is entirely because of work, or in other words, Stana does not want to disappoint Li Yian. Although she does not have a husband, she has a lover. Although the lover is also far away abroad, the lover is different from her husband.

Recently, Stana and Ji have been having headaches about shops, to be precise, shops suitable for opening supermarkets.

Although they didn't know what a supermarket was, they also knew about department stores, so at first, they looked for shops according to department store standards. However, they searched several places one after another, but they were all rejected remotely by Li Yian.

Not because the location is bad, but because the price is too high.

"The location is good but too expensive, so where do you think we should open?"

Ji Li pouted her mouth and said with some indignation.

"He's quite good. He made us run away and break our legs just by talking. This guy, it's true. He hasn't been to London for such a long time. He might have been fascinated by some vixen..."

Ji Li really guessed this point, and she was not a vixen. Compared to her, Stana, who had just become a widow, was very open-minded. She knew her identity and could find an accurate position. She was just his lover. That's all, what she needs now is to use this opportunity to have a career of her own, or in other words, make him inseparable from her.

It must be said that as a mature woman, Stana is very smart and sensible.

"Ji Li, Li has more important things now. Since he needs us to do something for him, we must do our best as much as possible. After all..." Stana, who was driving the car, looked at the streets that were already much busier than before. , said.

"This will be our future career."

"Future career?"

Ji Li was stunned and looked at her good sisters in surprise.

"Stana, don't you want to go to North Borneo?"

Go to Borneo…

Stana's mind sank and she said to herself.

"Maybe, one day we will go! But right now, the most important thing is to do our job well."

……

In fact, if possible, Li Yian hopes to go directly to London.

Because in his plan, the future supermarket will not only be a large supermarket chain such as Wal-Mart and Carrefour, but also the forefront of Borneo products sinking into the European and American markets. With this supermarket chain, it is only a matter of time to control the sales terminal. .

One end is production and the other is sales. In this way, consumer goods produced in Borneo will be in an invincible position in the future.

Therefore, the importance of chain supermarkets opened in European and American countries is even as important as the local construction in Borneo.

It is for this reason that even in Borneo, Li Yian will always pay attention to the progress of the supermarket, and the first supermarket established in London is the top priority. In addition to letting Stana be responsible, He also specially sent many people to assist him, including the North Borneo Company's London office, which is now also managed by Stana. All she needs is to fully mobilize everyone's human, material and financial resources to build this supermarket.

But as we all know, when opening a supermarket, especially when it is just starting a brand and there is no brand appeal, choosing an address is the top priority. If the location is not good, it will not attract customers. If the location is too good, the rent will be very expensive, which is not in line with business interests.

After rejecting the site selections of Stana and others one after another, Li Yian stared at the map of London and fell into thinking. He thought quickly, thinking that there are some places in London suitable for opening a store. Opening a supermarket requires not only large-scale shops, but also nearby A large number of residents, and they can be too poor.

"This needs a map!"

What kind of map?

It’s the land price map!

The land price cannot be too high. A high land price means there will not be too many residents nearby. A land price that is too low means it is a slum area and the supermarket will become a paradise for thieves.

Soon after being reminded by Li Yi'an, Stana and the company's employees selected several suitable places to open stores based on land price maps, population density, residents' income and other details.

Perhaps it was because there were so many choices. When the staff offered several positions, I didn’t think about which option was better. They all seemed good.

Just when Stana wanted to leave this matter to Li Yi'an like in the past, she suddenly thought of something and her eyes suddenly lit up!

Then I walked to the map and stared at it for a while.

Then he laughed happily and said to Ji Li:

"Honey, let's go, I'll take you to a place, that place is absolutely great!"

"Where?"

Ji Li followed her curiously, and the deputy manager Chen An also followed them out suspiciously, and then the three of them drove out of the company.
