Chapter 17: Chapter 16: Small Business, Big Future_l

Translator: 549690339

Yang Anbang started to analyze in his mind, seventy thousand, for his group of people, wasn’t a significant figure. In Jingcheng, any children of decent families could scrape that together. Xiao family’s second daughter put forward twenty thousand. She didn’t significantly undercut him. However, Nie Zhenbang was ruthless about the shared stocks. Distributing shares also required some knowledge, Nie Zhenbang’s goal was not to make a lot of money here or start a business. His future was in politics. The saying goes, “a man cannot live without power”. In his previous life, Nie Zhenbang had seen numerous renowned tycoons fall. Once shining brightly, many politicians were honoured guests. However, when they collapsed, nobody cared. Ultimately, it’s all about power.

Officials and merchants. Officials come before merchants. If there are no officials, merchants amount to nothing. Having income to ensure a lifetime of food and clothing, without relying on illegal gains for material enjoyment, is enough. As for who runs the company, Nie Zhenbang doesn’t care.

Furthermore, Yang Anbang, who made it into the top 500 companies worldwide in his previous life, is competent. Now, by aligning with him first, I am actually the one gaining an advantage. Although I could also operate alone, personal energies are limited. The rationale of being willing to part with something, Nie Zhenbang had understood for a long time.

As for Xiao Yali and Nie Jiamin’s shares, that’s a product of Nie Zhenbang’s whimsy. He never discussed it with anyone beforehand. Such an action, Nie Zhenbang considered two factors; firstly, Xiao Yali is currently idle. Together with Yang Anbang, they might be able to create something. If they marry, that would be even better. Secondly, if the two are incompatible, with this relationship, the Xiao family, in particular Xiao Yali’s brainless father, my second uncle, might need to be cautious when dealing with things in the future. Even if the Xiao family declines, with these shares, they can still live comfortably as wealthy people. Although they may lose their power, they can still live without concern for food and clothing.

As for Nie Jiamin, he is an important link. For the Nie family, having only one illegitimate son is not enough. Nie Jialei is impossible. The best strategy is to pull Nie Jiamin in. Then, outsiders would see this as the intention of the Nie family.

“Zhenbang, you really are ruthless. You butchered me like this. Can’t you be a little merciful?” Yang Anbang joked.

This shows that Yang Anbang has agreed to Nie Zhenbang’s equity distribution scheme. Yang Anbang also has his own considerations. The Nie family can allow Nie Zhenbang to venture out independently, which indicates that Nie Zhenbang’s position in the Nie family is no longer limited to that of an illegitimate child. Perhaps, not acknowledging Nie Zhenbang is just a smoke screen intentionally released by the Nie family. The fact that Nie Jiamin can participate already explains the problem. Yang Anbang recognises Nie Zhenbang’s ability. Perhaps, at this moment, Nie Zhenbang already has his own say in the Nie family.

Don’t underestimate this power, there are so many second-generation officials, and third-generation revolutionaries in the Four Nine City. However, in the new generation, besides those people in their thirties who have already been settled into the system, few of them can voice their opinions in the family. Nie Zhenbang, at the tender age of sixteen, has earned Elder Nie’s affirmation, which is a testament to his capabilities.

Yang Anbang didn’t know that this was just an illusion created by Nie Zhenbang. Later, when Yang Anbang found out, he cried foul. Otherwise, back then, Yang Anbang would never have given so many shares to the Nie family.

Another factor is the current political landscape. Though the leader holds the military power, the military is not a solid monolith. Elder Nie of the Nie family, coupled with his relative Ye family’s prestige and network in the military, the leader’s position is not as stable as it appears. The Nie family is a staunch conservative faction. If he can win over the Nie family, it would greatly promote the situation of the reformist faction.

Although Yang Anbang likes trading, it does not mean he doesn’t understand politics. On the contrary, an attribute a successful businessman should have is understanding politics and officialdom. What kind of businessmen make the most money? In ancient times, Lu Buwei had ingenious strategies. In modern times, Hu Xueyan was immensely influential. Political investment is a significant business.

At this moment, both of them have similar mindsets. Nie Zhenbang wants to break the inevitable deadlock for the Nie family and make some pocket money for himself. As for Yang Anbang, he wants to create an impression that the Nie family and the Yang family have already joined forces while also starting his business empire.

“Zhenbang, I have no objections regarding the equity issues. My word, Yang Erlang, is known in Four Nine City, as reliable as spitting nails. If you don’t believe me, you can draft an agreement first. I can sign and stamp it right away with pen and paper. But, brother, you have to disclose what kind of business you’re planning to do.” Yang Anbang became much serious. Those tough chaps in Four Nine City, though they seem frivolous most of the time, they are good at gauging when to play around and when to be serious.

Nie Zhenbang also broke into a laugh, waved generously, and said, “No need. I trust that you will not stoop to tarnishing your reputation.”

Nie Zhenbang’s words were definitely not baseless. The reason for Yang Anbang’s great success down the line was due to his background and abilities, that’s true. But what mattered most was that Yang Anbang’s approach to business never involved leveraging power to overpower others, nor did he ever act in bad faith.’

“Hehe, bro, in fact, there’s not much to mention about my business, it’s just a supermarket!” Nie Zhenbang revealed his direction.

“Supermarket? What is that?” Yang Anbang froze for an instant.

Next to him, Xiao Yali also looked confused and said, “Zhenbang, be clear, what is a supermarket?”

Only at this moment did Nie Zhenbang remember, the term supermarket, in fact, only appeared a few years later. This era still refers to supermarkets as self-selection stores. Just a couple of years ago, the first supermarket in Jingcheng was opened. However, it was only a meager space of less than 200 square meters, selling only vegetables and meat. In the future context, it was merely a fresh food store. In addition, its prices were five to forty percent higher than the regular markets. The labels on the packaging bags only had prices, without product names or quality. In Nie Zhenbang’s view, this could not be counted as a real supermarket at all.

“Supermarket, fully called a Super Market. In English, it’s supermarket. free webnov el.com

Currently, we have one in Jingcheng, isn’t it? It’s located in West City District.” Nie Zhenbang laughed and explained the meaning of a supermarket.

At this moment, Xiao Yali smacked her head and said, “Oh, so you are talking about that thing. How do you do this business? It’s even pricier than outside.

Such a small place. How much can you earn?”

Nie Jiamin, however, had full confidence in Nie Zhenbang. If Nie Zhenbang could write such an essay, this third brother’s abilities were extraordinary and cannot be judged by common standards. Hence, he said, “Second sister, don’t speak. Little brother definitely has his own plan.”

Although Yang Anbang didn’t say a word, it was just his character. He believed that Nie Zhenbang would surely have more than just a little plan. However, his eyes conveyed the same sentiment as Xiao Yali’s.

Nie Zhenbang laughed and said, “What they’re doing isn’t a real supermarket. What we’re going to do will be an authentic supermarket. Firstly, a large sales venue. Two thousand square meters, or even twenty thousand square meters. In addition to vegetables, meats, we’ll have daily necessities, from small items like nails, screws, to food, garments. We’ll do everything. That would be a real supermarket, a super market. In other words, we need to make sure that whenever people think of shopping, they just have to step into the supermarket to find everything. That’s when we will have succeeded.”

Seeing that the two people looked indifferent, Nie Zhenbang continued: “Do you think it’s a small business? Hehe, let me tell you, never underestimate small businesses as they promise a bright future. There’s a supermarket in the United States called Walmart. They specialized in this and became one of the top ten enterprises in the US.”

At this moment, Nie Zhenbang also began to laugh. Hualian Supermarket would still take a few more years to register and establish. As for Walmart? They won’t enter the domestic market until ten years later. I’m sorry, but I can’t wait. I will take over the domestic market first. When you decide to enter,

I’m afraid there won’t be much left for you..f reeweb novel.com
