Rebirth begins with rejecting Qingmei

Chapter 495 A show of force?
  In Lu Xinyao's eyes, Xu Xiuwen was undoubtedly a playboy.

There are too many beauties around him.

Although Lu Xinyao is somewhat confident in her beauty.

But she doesn't think she can always attract Xu Xiuwen.

The only way she could think of to get rid of Xu Xiuwen's entanglement was to wait.

One day Xu Xiuwen got tired of it and had no feelings for her anymore.

She would be free to leave.

So even if she was obedient in front of Xu Xiuwen, it was actually all acting.

In her heart, she wanted to stay away from Xu Xiuwen as soon as possible.

But things have changed a bit these days.

Because of one thing.

She began to think of Xu Xiuwen from time to time.

When I think of Xu Xiuwen leaving without saying goodbye during this period, I wonder which woman he is sweetly dating.

She felt extremely irritable.

Because I'm in a bad mood.

She has a cold face every day in the company recently, as if someone owes her millions.

Song Xiaomi, who cared about her, quietly asked her if her aunt was here.

Only Lu Xinyao knew that the reason for all this was because of Xu Xiuwen.

But she had nowhere to say.

Can't say either.

Lu Xinyao suddenly remembered what Xu Xiuwen said just now.

She couldn't help but think: "Am I really fat?"

This made her want to take out the makeup mirror in her bag and see if her face was really fat.

But then she realized, why should she worry about getting fat because of Xu Xiuwen's words? What does it have to do with whether he is fat or not?
  Lu Xinyao bit her lips when she realized something, and then turned to glare at Xu Xiuwen angrily.

But gave up quickly.

Finally, she turned her gaze to the window and sighed silently in her heart.

The dinner Xu Xiuwen is attending tonight is a special one.

The people who came to the dinner were liquor distributors from Jinling City.

Xu Xiuwen's Guangming Winery is developing very well. It has opened up the liquor market in Hui Province and gradually established a firm foothold.

Now there are channels to buy Guangming New Wine in cities of all sizes in Hui Province.

Xu Xiuwen's ambition is not satisfied with this.

Jinling is the actual capital of Hui Province.

Guangming New Wine has not yet opened up the city’s liquor market.

The annual liquor sales in the city of Jinling are about 14 billion yuan, and the total annual sales of the mid-to-high-end liquor market are about 5 million yuan.

With such a huge market, anyone who says they are not interested would be lying.

Xu Xiuwen has also been eyeing the liquor market in Jinling City since early in the morning.

Then there's tonight's dinner.

Less than 5 o'clock.

Xu Xiuwen arrived at a high-end seafood restaurant in Qinhuai District, Jinling, in advance.

This high-end seafood restaurant is the largest and most luxurious banquet venue in Jinling. It can accommodate 5000 people for dining at the same time and has a kitchen area of ​​4000 square meters.

Tonight's dinner was organized by Xu Xiuwen.

Of course he was inviting guests.

Host a meal at such a high-end seafood restaurant.

The cost is also huge.

Tens of thousands of dollars is not enough.

But if you can't let go of the child, you can't trap the wolf.

In order to open up the liquor market in Jinling City, this kind of money is worth spending.

As soon as Xu Xiuwen entered the door, he was asked by the lobby manager for the box number.

After learning the box number.

The lobby manager personally led Xu Xiuwen to the box.

Come to the door of the box.

Xu Xiuwen happened to meet a middle-aged man.

Before Xu Xiuwen organized tonight's dinner, he specially investigated the dealers in Jinling City and also saw photos of some of them.

Xu Xiuwen happened to know the man in front of him.

The man's name is Jiang Yuanzhou, and he is a relatively powerful dealer in Jinling City.

Jiang Yuanzhou obviously also knew Xu Xiuwen.

His eyes lit up and he said with a smile: "It's better to be famous than to meet. Meeting is far better than being famous. Mr. Xu, you are really a talented person. You are young and promising."

"No, Mr. Jiang is mature, steady, and well-groomed. I have always heard of Mr. Jiang, and I finally met him today."

The two came up to flatter each other.

Whether it's true or not.

At least the scene looks good.

Jiang Yuanzhou turned his attention to Lu Xinyao next to Xu Xiuwen: "Mr. Xu, who is this?"

Xu Xiuwen introduced him smoothly: "Mr. Jiang, this is my secretary Lu Xinyao."

When Jiang Yuanzhou heard that Lu Xinyao was Xu Xiuwen's secretary, the smile on Jiang Yuanzhou's face did not diminish.

He praised seriously: "Mr. Xu's secretary is really a rare beauty."

Lu Xinyao politely said thank you.

"Xin Yao, let me introduce to you. This is Mr. Jiang Yuanzhou. In Jinling, as long as he is in the liquor business, no one can stand in Jinling without his nod."

This is a bit unscrupulous to say.

According to Xu Xiuwen’s investigation.

Jiang Yuanzhou is the third most powerful dealer in Jinling City.

There are two major dealers ahead who are more powerful than him.

Xu Xiuwen spoke politely.

Jiang Yuanzhou also knew that he was deliberately flattering himself.

He quickly waved his hands and said: "Mr. Xu, you praise me too much, and I don't dare to take it seriously."

"Mr. Jiang, you are too humble..."

After a few simple polite words.

Xu Xiuwen said with a smile: "Mr. Jiang, it's my honor for you to attend this dinner tonight. You must drink to your heart's content. If you don't treat me well, I won't be able to see you again in the future."

"No, no... Mr. Xu, you are too polite!"

Then the two of them walked into the box.

The box Xu Xiuwen ordered was an extra-large box with only one table, but it was enough for 50 people to dine together. ,

At this time, many people had come to the box.

At a quick glance, there seemed to be about twenty people.

After Xu Xiuwen and Jiang Yuanzhou came in, many people stood up.

Jiang Yuanzhou is the third largest dealer in Jinling City, and almost everyone present knows him.

And Xu Xiuwen, the person who hosted the dinner.

Although the two parties have never met before.

But most people also knew him.

This is thanks to Xu Xiuwen's first TV series "Boys Over Flowers".

The popularity of this drama undoubtedly increased his fame in Jiangsu Province.

Xu Xiuwen then greeted everyone present one by one under Jiang Yuanzhou's introduction.

With excellent memory.

It only took Xu Xiuwen a very short time to match each person's appearance with the information in his profile.

After one lap.

Xu Xiuwen was a little disappointed.

These people present are also dealers, but they are relatively weak.

How bad is it?
  Some people even only have sporadic channels, such as small shops and ordinary restaurants.

As for the truly powerful dealers, except for Jiang Yuanzhou, almost no one was present.

This made his heart sink.

He clearly remembered that when he invited these people on the phone, they agreed readily.

But after all, it’s not the agreed time yet.

Xu Xiuwen had no choice but to suppress his dissatisfaction and wait patiently.

Then take a seat.

It is worth mentioning that.

Jiang Yuanzhou did not sit in the seats of the chief guest and deputy guest, but sat in the seat of the third guest. '

He deliberately reserved the seats for the guest of honor and the deputy guest.

As the time gets closer and closer to the start of the meal.

People kept arriving.

Until 5 o'clock. Except for the two major dealers, who are ranked first and second in terms of strength, they haven’t arrived yet.

Other dealers are here.

Just when Xu Xiuwen thought he was being let go by these two major dealers.

In walked a man and a woman.

The man is in his forties, slightly bloated, but not bad looking.

Xu Xiuwen recognized the man's identity at a glance.

Liu Yang—the person with the most channels among Jinling liquor merchants.

There was a woman walking beside Liu Yang.

The woman is wearing a black hip skirt.

The chest is outlined by the low-cut dress, as if it is about to come out at any time.

She also looks good, with thick makeup and her hair falling on her shoulders.

At first glance, it is very eye-catching.

It took less than a minute after Liu Yang entered the box.

Another person came in.

This time it's a woman.

Xu Xiuwen didn't know this woman.

But others seemed to know her.

As soon as the woman came in, about one-third of the dealers who were sitting immediately stood up to welcome her.

This was a scene that had never happened before when Liu Yang came in.

The woman walked directly to the guest of honor seat and sat down without any ceremony. She looked directly at Xu Xiuwen and said coldly, "I am Mr. Wu's secretary Wu Fang. Mr. Wu is very busy today and asked me to attend the dinner on his behalf."

The woman's words made Xu Xiuwen feel a little dissatisfied.

The full name of Mr. Wu mentioned by Wu Fang is Wu Gaohe.

Wu Gaohe is the largest liquor dealer in Jinling City.

Many well-known supermarkets, restaurants or restaurants in Jinling City have purchased goods from him.

Xu Xiuwen wanted to open up the liquor market in Jinling, so naturally he couldn't avoid Wu Gaohe.

But he didn't expect that Wu Gaohe would be so disrespectful and didn't even bother to attend in person. He just sent a secretary to attend the dinner.

Xu Xiuwen suppressed the anger in his heart.

He knew that he couldn't get angry yet, and even if he got angry, there would be nothing he could do against Wu Gaohe.

Unless he uses Li Haimei's connections.

But Wu Gaohe may not have anyone behind him.

And Xu Xiuwen doesn't want to get to that point yet.

Xu Xiuwen suppressed the anger in his heart and expressed his welcome with a smile.

After everyone is seated.

The waiter in the restaurant started to serve the food.

It is indeed the largest seafood restaurant in Jinling.

The waiters here all wear uniforms just like in a club.

A blue cheongsam.

When the waitresses served the dishes, their graceful waists twisted in front of everyone.

Xu Xiuwen noticed that some men were almost staring straight in the eyes.

Xu Xiuwen's eyes swept across the faces of everyone in the box one by one.

But he suddenly stopped.

He stared straight at the sexy woman Liu Yang brought.

And this woman happened to be looking at him at this time.

After the two looked at each other.

The woman also smiled at him.

Xu Xiuwen nodded, then withdrew his gaze.

But I am still thinking in my heart, what is going on with this woman?

Xu Xiuwen had long discovered that this woman had been secretly watching him since she came in.

What does she mean? Interested in him?
  After the waiters served the dishes, they also thoughtfully filled the wine glasses in front of each guest.

The waiters then left.

All eyes in the box suddenly focused on Xu Xiuwen.

He instantly became the focus of everyone's attention.

Xu Xiuwen doesn't have stage fright either.

He picked up the wine glass and said, "I'll toast you all with the first glass. Thank you for your honor in attending tonight's dinner."

Everyone was very considerate and raised the wine glass in front of them to take a sip.

Xu Xiuwen invited these people here tonight not just for treat, but mainly for business, but Xu Xiuwen planned to chat while eating.

It's not always good to start talking right away.

He was not in a hurry, but there were people who were more anxious than him.

As soon as he put down his glass, a man in his forties asked, "Mr. Xu, you've drank too much. Is it time to get down to business?"

"There's no rush. Let's eat first. Once you're happy, we'll talk later."

The man sneered and said: "If things are not settled, who is in the mood to eat? You don't think we are here to have dinner with you, do you?"

This is very disrespectful.

Xu Xiuwen was both surprised and a little annoyed.

He glanced around.

Many people seem to have the same idea as the man.

He also noticed that Liu Yang and Wu Fang, who were sitting on both sides, were looking at him as if they were watching a show.

Xu Xiuwen suddenly remembered that when Wu Fang came in just now, this man seemed to be one of the people who stood up to welcome him.

He still remembered that when he entered the box, the man did not stand up, but remained sitting on the seat.

The difference in attitude before and after, coupled with the man's aggressive attitude at this moment.

Xu Xiuwen understood immediately.

He wanted to give himself a show of strength.

As for whether anyone else instructed him to do this.

Xu Xiuwen doesn’t know yet.

But he realized the group wasn't friendly.

He narrowed his eyes slightly.

"You are Li Zengli, right?"

"It's me." Li Zengli nodded.

"You have two cigarette shops, two restaurants and a supermarket in your hands. I'm right."

Li Zengli raised his eyebrows, looking very surprised.

Xu Xiuwen was actually right.

But how does he know?

Xu Xiuwen did not explain, but asked with a smile: "How do you want to talk about it?"

Li Zengli had no choice but to suppress his doubts and said, "How much is the purchase fee for your Guangming Winery?"

Buying a store, also called entry fee, means that liquor manufacturers pay restaurant entrance fees or high rebates to allow restaurants to only promote and sell liquor from their own distilleries.

This situation exists all over the country, but it is particularly exaggerated in Jinling.

Due to its drinking culture and economic level, Jiangsu Province is considered the largest liquor consumption province in the country.

With Jinling as its nominal provincial capital, various wine companies will want to get a piece of the pie.

This has resulted in particularly fierce competition in Jinling’s liquor market.

So some wine companies thought of buying stores.

In this way, you can greatly suppress your competitors and increase your own sales.

The trend of buying stores originated from Kouzi Liquor, and Heyang Liquor has developed it to the extreme.

Before 2000, Yinghe Liquor and Wuliang Liquor occupied the forefront of Jinling's liquor market.

After 2000, Kouzi Liquor entered Jinling and quickly replaced Yinghe Liquor and Wuliang Liquor to become the "boss" in the Jinling liquor market by buying stores.

This situation lasted until 2006.

In 2006, the sales volume of Kouzi Liquor in one city in Jinling exceeded 2 million yuan.

Naturally, Heyang, a local wine company in Jiangsu Province, cannot let go of such a huge market.

In order to seize the market, Heyang also started buying stores crazily, even crazier than Kouzijiu.

In 2004, Heyang's sales in Jinling were only over 6000 million yuan.

But shop through a shopping spree.

Last year alone.

Heyang's consumption in Jinling alone reached more than 2 million yuan.

And ever since.

Heyang no longer gives Kouzijiu a chance and continues to shrink the latter's market share.

Finally, in 2009, Kouzijiu withdrew its Jinling branch.
