"Everyone is so busy!"

Returning to Xiaohe Village, Hu Xiaobei looked at everyone busily bustling about and couldn't help but feel a bit astonished.

Soon, Hu Xiaobei learned that the reason everyone was so busy was that they needed to continuously pick up cargo from other villages and then deliver it to various branches.

"This is really good, now everyone is really coming together."

Thinking this, Hu Xiaobei, humming a tune, made his way straight to Guo Meiyu.

As he approached, he heard Guo Meiyu on the phone.

"Yes, okay, continue with the sales, even if we run out of stock, it's fine. The second batch of goods is already on the way. That's it, I have another call!"

"Hmm? Yes! The goods here are ready, hurry up and come over."

One call after another.

Feeling a bit distressed, Hu Xiaobei quickly walked over to Guo Meiyu.

Seeing Guo Meiyu truly overwhelmed with work, Hu Xiaobei knew he really had to hire more people.

Without hesitation, Hu Xiaobei shared his thoughts with Guo Meiyu.

After sharing, he heard Guo Meiyu reply, "Xiaobei, we do indeed need to hire more people, but that's not the priority right now. The real focus should be on partnering with logistics companies."

"Logistics?"

"Yes, before we were only delivering to all the stores in the city. Back then, we could still handle the coordination, but now, we need to cover stores across the entire province, and many times, it's very difficult to operate perfectly. So, we now need to partner with a pretty big, very experienced logistics company!"

Hearing Guo Meiyu's words, Hu Xiaobei gently rubbed his nose, "That's indeed the case; I'll quickly figure out a solution."

Hu Xiaobei knew the transportation issue was very important, so he quickly agreed!

"Good!"

After Hu Xiaobei had agreed, Guo Meiyu smiled and continued to plan and coordinate...

...

In the following days, all the branches continued to sell rapidly, which tremendously boosted the fame of the 'Xiaobei Brand.'

Hu Xiaobei, Guo Meiyu, and the others watched the booming performance, so excited they couldn't close their mouths.

Not only Hu Xiaobei and Guo Meiyu but also everyone from Big River Town was very happy.

Because now they were earning a lot of money every day.

They knew that all these changes were because of Hu Xiaobei, so they prepared to do something for him; and with that, many village chiefs started gathering together to discuss what they could do for Hu Xiaobei...

...

On the other hand, the founder of 'Yongqiang Brand,' Lin Yongqiang, also couldn't keep his mouth shut.

But it wasn't because he was happy; it was because he had just had false teeth fitted at the hospital and they weren't quite comfortable.

The subordinates sitting in front of Lin Yongqiang found his awkward expression quite amusing.

However, they dared not laugh and could only hold it in...

After clenching his false teeth a bit, Lin Yongqiang expressionlessly grabbed the latest financial report and glanced at it, his expression turning extremely ugly.

After furiously slamming it down on the table, he roared hysterically, "What... what is going on, our performance..."

He hadn't finished speaking when the ill-fitting false teeth flew straight out of his mouth.

Under everyone's gaze, the false teeth landed on a table not far away.

Everyone looked at the dentures flying out and had no idea what to say.

Nor did they know whether they should pick them up...

The atmosphere thus reached the pinnacle of awkwardness.

...

"Hu Xiaobei, it's all because of you, bastard!"

With such a venomous growl, he walked over expressionlessly, picked them up and put them back in his mouth.

After that, he spoke again, but this time, his voice was not as loud as before.

"What the hell is going on? Why does our financial statement look so bad? Didn't I tell you guys to raise the prices before? What? You can't bear to do it? Do you pity those people buying groceries?"

At that, Lin Yongqiang paused briefly, then continued with an expressionless face, "I told you before, those who come to our store to buy groceries are just sheep; we can do whatever we want with them. Even if we double the prices, those idiots would still have to accept it! Do you understand?"

Hearing such a hoarse and hysterical outburst, everyone didn't know what to say.

Before, they had raised prices according to Lin Yongqiang's orders.

And they had raised them by nearly half! At that time, after the price hike, the customers had no better choice but to grudgingly accept it!

But now, that tactic no longer worked, because Hu Xiaobei's branch had opened, and they now had a better choice...

"What? Have you all dropped dead?"

Not receiving a response, Lin Yongqiang became even more furious!

In his view, these people had grown wings; he had only rested at home for a few days and they dared to defy him.

Knowing they had to answer, the man with glasses pushed his spectacles up, sighed silently, and plucked up the courage to say, "Chairman Lin, you were resting at home before, so you're unaware of the latest situation. It's different now; we can't even maintain business with crazy price reductions, let alone price increases!"

"What are you talking about? I only rested for a few days, what, has the sky fallen?"

"It has! Hu Xiaobei has launched a major counterattack against us. Previously, he opened nearly two hundred branches in various counties and cities across our province in one go."

"What? Two hundred branches? Are you... are you joking? How is that possible?"

Lin Yongqiang glared fiercely at the man speaking!

To him, it seemed impossible.

Because Hu Xiaobei had always been quiet, how could he suddenly have two hundred stores?

Seeing his shock, the man sighed, "Chairman Lin, we were also shocked when we first found out, but it's true! Now all the stores are open, which has entirely impacted our business."

"Even so, the impact can't be this huge! We're now left with only a few percent of the market!"

Seeing Lin Yongqiang struggling to accept it, the man adjusted his language slightly and explained, "Chairman Lin, here's the thing, our crazy price hikes previously upset many customers! At that time, they had no other choice of brands for fruits and vegetables so, despite their dissatisfaction, they had to accept it. But now, with the emergence of 'Xiaobei Brand,' they have a choice, so they've completely abandoned us."

"This..."

Hearing such an explanation, Lin Yongqiang's eyelids twitched violently, and quickly, he slumped into the chair!

"Chairman Lin, are you alright?"

Seeing Lin Yongqiang sit down in such a sorry state, everyone started asking anxiously...

Hearing their words, Lin Yongqiang weakly waved his hand...

At this moment, Lin Yongqiang's face was full of defeat.

He had truly not expected to take a fall, and at the hands of a farmer at that...

Previously, Lin Yongqiang had never taken Hu Xiaobei seriously, but now, he knew he was wrong, and truly, enormously mistaken...
