Alia had to struggle for another ten years before she could stand on the float during the military parade, while Mr. Huo stood on the city gate tower and clapped his hands as he watched the children marching in formation.

Aunt An is on equal terms with a big shot of this level, so is it the turn of these guys to put on airs in front of him?

It took a little time to get rid of these guys, but Boss Huo became a little worried about Alia's coming to the supermarket.

"Girl."

"Huh? What's wrong?"

Alia, who was watching the lion dance, didn't even turn around. She dug into her pocket and took out two lollipops. She handed one to him and said, "Here, have some candy."

Huo glared at him and said, "Tsk, do you think it's appropriate for me to eat this at my age?"

"Never mind...what is it?"

"You run this supermarket too conscientiously. It's blocking other people's way."

"Is there such a thing?" Alia turned around in confusion, holding a lollipop in her mouth: "Who? Who is blocking?"

"Oh, there are too many - those few just now are not counted as foreign capital. You'd better be careful."

"I'm doing business, operating legally, what do I have to fear? I don't steal or rob, if they can't beat me it's because they don't have the ability!"

"That's what they say, but some things aren't so easy to do..."

Boss Huo clumsily peeled off the candy wrapper, squinted his eyes to examine the thing to see why it still tasted like lemon, and then put it in his mouth.

"You'd better... oh, it's still quite sour... hiss... You'd better find a partner to join forces with. I've told you so many times that when doing business, you can't just think about making all the money. You have to make more friends and fewer enemies."

"I didn't earn all the money myself. I distributed it to my employees. I plan to give out 80%. And, old man, how did you deal with the property in Bauhinia? I plan to prepare for employee welfare housing in a while."

"Zijing, I forgot about this. I have a bad memory when I get old. You can ask Xiao Jiang."

As he spoke, Mr. Huo waved to Jiang Tianyi beside him: "Jiang girl, come here!"

Boss Huo has already semi-retired from society, but let alone Jiang Tianyi, even her father did not dare to ignore him.

Jiang Tianyi, who was polite to the younger generation, came over quickly: "Grandpa Huo."

"Well, you can talk to Ai Yatou about the real estate business over at Zijing. Also, your previous joint procurement was quite good. Why don't you continue it later?"

"...These matters still need to be re-evaluated by the investment department. Miss Ai probably has her own ideas as well."

Jiang Tianyi raised his chin and looked down at Alia. Please beg me! If you beg me, I will continue to cooperate with you.

Without my Tianrun Department Store merging its inventory with yours, your Aili supermarket would be easily destroyed by those guys in terms of supply channels.

Even if the Tianhai City government came to cut the ribbon for your Aililai today, and even if customers rushed to give you money and didn't want to see your Aililai go bankrupt, you can still understand what it means to be a good cook without rice. They don't want to see a idiot like you forcing them to upgrade their services.

In the past few days, Jiang Tianyi has already had a general understanding of the dimensionality reduction service of Aili Supermarket, but his colleagues do not know it yet.

But truth will come to light sooner or later - at that time, no one will follow up, but will want to kill her first!

It can even be said that it must be absolutely strangled. Such a conscientious enterprise cannot exist in Tianhai, or even in this world.

The best way is naturally to cut off Aili's supply from the source. Given their size, if they join forces, Aili will definitely lose.

Jiang Tianyi's Tianrun Department Store chain is Alia's only savior. Boss Huo saw through the way out of the situation at a glance and was speaking for Alia.

And Alia's response was...

"Would you like some? Strawberry flavor." Alia dug into her pocket, pulled out a lollipop and handed it to her: "This is the last one."

"..."

"No? Lele——"

"Humph!" Jiang Tianyi snatched the lollipop away: "Don't you have anything else to say?"

"Anything else? Anything else?" Alia looked at her suspiciously. "If you have anything to say, just say it... Oh, the Chamber of Commerce election, right? I understand, I understand. I will definitely vote for you then. Thank you very much for your help this time. Well, that's about it."

"..."

"Chamber of Commerce election?" Boss Huo asked Alia curiously, with his hands behind his back, "You want to participate in the election? You definitely won't be the first to be the chairman, but you can be the vice chairman?"

"No, why would I participate in the election? I don't want to - but Boss Jiang seems to care about this very much, and he has expressed his intention to canvass for votes before."

Boss Huo nodded. So that's it...

Come to think of it, Jiang girl did invite him at the beginning, and it was probably related to Tianhai Chamber of Commerce.

But that time he went to Alia's cafeteria. Who asked Alia's mother to recruit so many chefs to the cafeteria of their group?

In the past, Mr. Huo might not care about these things, but this time, considering that Jiang Tianyi had made some contributions...

"Jiang girl——"

"Hey, you talk, I'm listening."

"In the mainland, the Chamber of Commerce is just a loose group that helps each other. Don't learn from your father. He did a lot of things in Zijing back then. Those were all things from the era of barbaric development. You have to operate legally, understand?"

"...Yes, I remember it."

"If you are determined to win the Chamber of Commerce election, you can do it with the size of the Jiang Group... Well, work hard."

"Old man, is it okay if I don't join the Chamber of Commerce?"

"Can't--"

"Tsk..."

252-New role? Leave request

It was already afternoon when the guests were seen off, and Alia had been busy the whole day.

The booming business of Aililai Supermarket is not only due to its timely assistance during the heavy rain in Tianhai City, but also due to its outstanding service quality.

Even when traffic exploded, it adhered to the principles of previous training, and even seemed a little too preferential, making new customers feel flattered.

Secretary Hou even went to find Ailia and said that there was no need for this. Disaster relief had been done very well before Ailia came. These face-saving projects that cost people a lot of money and time were a waste of the supermarket's energy. They should just operate normally.

Then Alia told him that this was the service attitude and service quality of Aili.

Let me put it this way, if anyone comes here incognito again in the future and does anything worse than today, just smash the store.

Secretary Hou was very touched and said, "It's very good, very good." He said that with such customer-first service awareness, it can be made into a business card of the city.

The big bosses following behind nodded and said “hmmmm” but turned around and wanted to spit on the spot - this is fucking involution, right?!

But with the officials around, with Boss Huo who is one level higher than the Tianhai city officials, they could only smile and say they would definitely follow up and learn.

study? Learn shit!

Turning around, several big bosses gathered together and began to discuss how to solve the problem of Alia.

"Come on, come on, try the new tea from the tea tree I just bought this year."

"What are you trying to taste? Who's in the mood for tea now?"

"It's just...what does she mean by Alia? She doesn't know any rules, right?"

The three big bosses sat together and denounced Alia and Aililai in unison. The most important thing was what exactly did the Ai Group mean?

"Wasn't the Ai Group half-dead before? Why is there such a big commotion now?"

"Donating money for fame, you idiot, why not just set up a fund, but actually give out real money and even write IOUs!"

"Oh, it's all because Ai Rulong died early."

"Too……"

There are actually some differences between domestic and foreign charity.

The most typical example is naturally A-mei. You see, the inheritance tax in North America is particularly high, so high that even children sometimes don’t even have the money to inherit.

That's right, because in the beginning, taxes were paid first and then inheritance - and it had to be in cash - and if someone died suddenly without being prepared, the children would basically be cut off from the wealth.

If someone like Alia were in North America, she might have to pay up to 2000% in inheritance tax and income tax if she wanted to inherit the 50 billion from Ailuropod.

One hundred billion was given away just like that, who can bear this?

Although there were repeated reductions and exemptions and even the idea of ​​abolishing this clause, as it would scare people away, they still only gave preferential treatment in terms of the exemption amount.

Therefore, if Ai Rulong was in North America, he would most likely set up a fund during his lifetime.

This fund may be in the field of charity, hospital, sports, education, etc., anyway, it is an organization that can hold property tax-free.

At the same time, he will reach an exchange agreement with the organization, for example, when Alia comes of age, she will become a director or senior employee of the charity.

Her annual salary may be extremely high, but the 200 billion fortune can be broken down into incomes for different tax periods.

In this way, there is only income tax, avoiding the high inheritance tax.

Moreover, different tax calculation periods can fully enjoy different tax-free amounts and low-tax rate amounts, which can also prevent Alia from squandering all her money due to a sudden brain attack.

Therefore, early foundations can almost be said to be pure tax avoidance tools. Even if 100 billion was donated to establish a foundation, the actual amount of money used for charity might be less than million.

Since early laws did not interfere with the operation of foundations at all, it was very easy for foundations to operate behind the scenes.

It was so simple that the daughter of an old witch named Clinton even semi-publicly got a billion dollars from the Clinton Foundation through a shell company, and it was then exposed by reporters.

As for domestic funds, there is also room for operation in many financial fields, and they are not new to these things.

But what we often see is tax evasion and fraudulent donations, rather than real donations!

"She invested at least 500 million yuan in Tianhai this time... We can't touch her for the time being."

A boss took a sip from his teacup and said meaningfully: "Everyone is looking at her now."

Five hundred million is certainly not a golden ticket or a talisman, but the intangible asset of reputation can sometimes be transformed into tangible power.

And another point is that they currently only have conflicts with one of Alia's property departments, not with the huge Ai Group.

Although the other party is a small-timer, it is normal for him to be a little idealistic at only 18. After all, the Ai Group has a financial asset of billion if it really takes action.

The combined wealth of the three of them was less than 100 billion, and they could only give Alia a little professional shock in their own field.

"She wants to join the Chamber of Commerce?"

"I heard that it was recommended by Boss Huo. What can you do? Do you dare to say no?"

In addition to being a businessman, Mr. Huo is also a vice-state level official. The honorary president of Tianhai Chamber of Commerce was bestowed upon him by others.

Organizers above the level of vice president are entitled to one recommendation quota from the Chamber of Commerce every year. Boss Huo’s quota was not used in the past few years, and some people said that it might be given to Alia this year.

Jiang Tianyi wanted this spot from Boss Huo before, after all, it would be easier to talk to him with a senior leading the way.

Otherwise, how could she, an outsider from Zijing who came to Tianhai to beg for food, be qualified to compete with everyone?

"I can't move, the Ai Group can't move, and the Chamber of Commerce can't stop me - what can I do? Huh? What can I do?"

"The supermarket is the only place that can teach her a lesson."

"That's right. It's obvious that she's trying to start a price war and a service war by opening a shop like this. I've been to their supermarket before and they've even marked out the purchase price. Who's the father of whom? She really treats customers like her own fathers - isn't that cheap?"

"Try to contact the distributors, provincial agents, general agents, and manufacturers to control the prices."

"Yeah, I think so too. We should form a united front. Also, we need to find a way to bring Tianrun Department Store over here."

"What happened at Tianrun Department Store?"

"What could it be? She is doing charity to gain reputation. Jiang Tianyi is an outsider. Otherwise, who would know her Jiang Group?"

"Humph, they all want face, they all want face and money, how can such a good thing happen?"

"That's right. If Jiang Tianyi was really such a good person, why didn't she go and save people? She went to save people when the subway was flooded!"

"What do you think? Why don't we get some dirty laundry on them after a while?"

"Is this matter of any benefit to us?"

"No - but it's bad for them! That's enough!"

Some of Alia's special achievements are not yet known to the public, such as her saving people in the subway.

The government wanted to commend her, but after asking her, she declined the public praise.

She felt that this was something that anyone with the ability would do, and she just happened to be there at the right time.

Therefore, in the eyes of others, Alia's greatest contribution this time was that the Ai Group donated money and materials, which was considered a pretty good and conscientious enterprise.

As for the official team's attitude towards her, it's quite special. Maybe it's because Mr. Huo has some relationship with Alia...

"Okay, let's take three steps. First, cut off the supply of goods from Aili!"

"Well, if cutting off the supply is not enough, then we can create some trouble for her supermarket. If Tianrun Department Store is sensible, then we can just ignore her. If they are not sensible and still get involved with Aili, then we can create some trouble for them as well. Jiang Tianyi has some tricks up her sleeve at Zijing, but does she dare to use them in the mainland? She doesn't have the ability, you know!"
