Rebirth: Starting from the Cafeteria

Chapter 493: Surveillance and making some money

The candidate that the mainland is keeping a close eye on for the new special medicine company is undoubtedly Wang Yongli.

Du Shaojie was not worried about whether the Wang family would fall into the trap, because it was impossible for the other party to get such a large amount of imported drugs.

Deep city.

The headquarters of Kateweixin Specialty Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd. is located on a relatively busy street.

The company is quite large, with dozens of retail stores locally and a fairly large warehouse.

Across the street from the company's headquarters, most of the shops, large and small, are restaurants. At noon and in the evening, there is a large flow of people in this area, and almost every restaurant has good business.

Recently, a restaurant that was doing well suddenly closed down. It was said that the landlord sold the storefront to someone else.

Soon, the store changed its sign and opened for business without even undergoing any redecoration.

Customers who come here regularly find this store quite interesting. It sells snacks in the morning and at noon, and boiled dishes in the evening, so its business scope is quite diverse.

The breakfast business is good, of course, as long as the food is good, the business will be good. The snacks in this store are cheap and good, and they taste good. After just a few days, they have been sought after by customers.

The barbecue in the store is even more popular, and there is a constant stream of customers from the evening to late at night.

Many people were sighing that the owner of this store was a good businessman, but in fact, this was just a cover for Wang Yongli to monitor the pharmaceutical company.

The store was bought by Du Shaojie, and the staff were transferred from the Northwest Noodle House and the Barbecue Restaurant.

If the business is not good, Wang Yongli will be killed.

"I guess there's no need to monitor the other party's retail stores. Large quantities of goods coming in won't intersect with these stores. What we need to pay attention to is the other party's corporate headquarters and warehouses."

Wang Yongli arranged everything and then ran to Yangcheng to report to Du Shaojie.

Du Shaojie nodded. The other party was competent and impeccable in details. After this matter was over, there was no need to make snacks. He could concentrate on making barbecue in the future.

The reason why we are working so hard now is to monitor [Kateway Pharmaceuticals] around the clock.

The restaurant is a good cover, otherwise long-term surveillance would be very troublesome and there is a possibility of being exposed if you are not careful.

"Pay more attention to their sudden overtime, especially at night. Also, the warehouse must be closely monitored. How do you arrange it?"

Du Shaojie was very curious about Wang Yongli's arrangements at the warehouse.

Wang Yongli did not keep Du Shaojie in suspense and told him directly that he had opened a convenience store at an intersection not far from the warehouse. The rent was not expensive, but the surveillance personnel had the right identity and it was not easy to alert the enemy.

Du Shaojie was very surprised. This was a good idea. It would not cost too much money to rent a store. Even if he closed the store in the future, all the goods in the small store could be easily disposed of.

It's like spending little money to accomplish great things.

Du Shaojie praised Wang Yongli a few words, and the other party understood his responsibilities and returned to Shenzhen overnight.

"Then let's play slowly and see who has the last laugh."

Du Shaojie now has almost no weaknesses, while Wang Jia and Yin Qiang still have one foot stuck in the mud.

Connections are not always reliable. The other party may appear strong on the surface, but once something is exposed, no matter how powerful the Wang family is, they cannot escape legal sanctions.

In addition, Yin Qiang's KTV hall is in a mess, and this guy will suffer the backlash one day.

Du Shaojie couldn't take care of Yin Qiang for the time being, he had to focus on dealing with the Wang family. To be honest, the Wang family and Yin Qiang's alliance was beyond his expectations, and if he didn't take the opportunity to defeat them one by one, he really couldn't bear it.

The two sides had fought before in the supply of raw materials. Facts have proved that even Luo Hansheng is a little afraid of the Wang family and Yin Qiang.

Therefore, the layout against the Wang family this time was very cautious in every aspect, even opening a restaurant opposite the family in order to monitor them.

Du Shaojie believed that he was not acting rashly. Buying storefronts was his usual style, and it was time for the barbecue restaurant to open more branches.

In the catering industry, rent and personnel expenses account for the bulk of the cost.

There is no way to deal with personnel expenses. If you want to avoid the landlord from raising the rent arbitrarily, purchasing a storefront is the only way to solve the problem once and for all.

From this perspective, purchasing a storefront and opening a restaurant is not just to deal with the Wang family.

this day.

Zhong Qing received news through special channels that there was movement in the Wang family's company in Hong Kong. Some of the imported drugs in the warehouse were loaded onto trucks and shipped away, with their destination heading directly to Shenzhen.

He couldn't monitor the entire process, but he was sure that the other party had indeed started shipping the goods.

Du Shaojie told this information to Wang Yongli and asked him to be alert and keep a close eye on it so as to thoroughly understand the Wang family's transportation and sales channels.

Then he met with Huang Yong alone.

Huang Yong is not having an easy time now. He was transferred from his original unit some time ago and took up a sinecure in the provincial department. Someone is trying to cut off Jiao Hongtao's right-hand men. When the conditions are ripe, Jiao Hongtao will also be marginalized.

Lin Zhiyuan is a special case, because he has reached another level, and it is not easy for others to deal with him. "Director Huang, regarding the new job, General Manager Cai has already responded. She said that she is sure to transfer you to Shenzhen City, but it is unlikely that you will be promoted to a full-time position, and it is estimated that you will still be a deputy position."

After three rounds of drinks, Du Shaojie started talking about business.

None of Huang Yong’s friends want to see him start “retirement” now, so Ye Weiming, Jiang Dongyuan and others are secretly helping him find a solution.

Du Shaojie was also busy. He met with Cai Jing several times and finally decided to give a push from behind.

Huang Yong is a provincial expert in criminal investigation, and he has been doing this work as a deputy. Shenzhen City took a liking to him, and after he went there, he was still the deputy in charge of criminal investigation.

"Is there such a good thing? Mr. Du, thank you! I will thank Mr. Cai in person when I get back."

Huang Yong picked up the wine glass, tapped it lightly on the table, and drank it all in one gulp.

He knew Du Shaojie's character, and he knew that he didn't like to joke around, so he quickly accepted this fact. To be honest, he was not willing to just take up a job and retire after having all his skills!

After dinner.

The two of them left.

At this critical juncture, it would be better for Huang Yong to show up as little as possible.

The next day.

Du Shaojie came to Shenzhen again and listened to Wang Yongli's report.

According to surveillance in Hong Kong and Shenzhen, the goods shipped from the Wang family warehouse in Hong Kong have entered the warehouse of [Kateway Pharmaceuticals].

"Next, you need to find out who is trading imported drugs with [Kateway Pharmaceuticals]. It doesn't matter if you don't have a comprehensive understanding, as long as you can find a few."

Now is not the time to close the net yet. Du Shaojie had no idea about the various channels of the Wang family before.

He wanted to take this opportunity to make everything clear.

Then it depends on whether Huang Yong can control the situation as soon as possible. Such a great credit should naturally be given to his own people. However, there are also disadvantages. After moving to the Wang family, Huang Yong is afraid that many people will hate him.

But so what?
As long as Huang Yong doesn't make any mistakes himself, it will not be easy for those people to deal with him.

After a while, Huang Yong's appointment was finally announced. He accepted it calmly and went to Shenzhen to take up his post.

Du Shaojie gave up the idea of ​​calling the police. Although he helped the Wang family complete the transaction smoothly this time, it might not be the same next time. After all, he was still thinking about playing the long game and catching the big fish.

But then, there was no movement from the Wang family, as if they were no longer in a hurry after selling this part of the goods.

Du Shaojie wondered if the news had leaked out. Finally, he inquired and found out that the authorities were cracking down very strictly during this period, so the Wang family, who had received the news in advance, naturally retreated.

During this period, the restaurant opposite [Kateway Pharmaceuticals] has been doing better and better business. Even breakfast has to be lined up. Many customers who are in a hurry take their food away because there are no empty seats in the store.

The manager of the barbecue restaurant had approached him several times, asking him to continue expanding the number of stores.

This part of the business is independent of the catering management company and belongs to Du Shaojie's personal assets. He had no plan to expand, but by chance, he started the chain business.

Making breakfast is a thankless project. Many breakfast shops that seem to be thriving have gone out of business because of outrageous rent increases.

Not to mention the profit margin of breakfast, how high can the absolute profit be for those cheap breakfasts?

If it weren’t for the barbecue in the evening, we wouldn’t make much money just selling breakfast.

Du Shaojie knew very well that the store manager's suggestion for expansion was not about the breakfast business but the barbecue business.

During this period, he was very free, so he assisted the manager of the [BBQ restaurant] and opened 5 similar stores in Shenzhen. These stores adopted the method of voluntary employee investment, with him personally investing 51% and the rest jointly invested by employees.

It’s quite interesting to think about it. Back then, he could only do business openly under the name of a collective enterprise.

Now that private enterprises can be set up at will, he has started to go back to the old ways. Of course, this is not a collective enterprise in the true sense, at most it can be regarded as a joint-stock enterprise.

Before, he supported many people in his barbecue restaurant in Yangcheng, most of whom came to him from Xijiang.

This situation has continued over the years. Some young people would come from far away just to hear of his name and come to him. How could he have the nerve to send them away?

Young people are enterprising and if they are provided with proper vocational training, some of them can go very far.

For example, the current store manager came from Xijiang and worked his way up to the position of store manager step by step.

Du Shaojie couldn't possibly be short of staff, as Qi Yan's cooking school supplied a large number of talents to the catering management company every year. Coupled with the company's own training system, if you could work under him for a few years, you would definitely be in great demand.

Next, a special company was set up to incorporate all these stores (including the barbecue restaurant in Yangcheng).

Du Shaojie transferred some key personnel from Bailian Catering to set up the company. He served as the chairman, a middle-level cadre from Bailian Catering served as the general manager, and the store manager served as the deputy general manager. (End of this chapter)
