“What brings you here from Beijing?” Mo Rong smiled faintly.
“The Spring Breeze of reform and opening up.” Xuan Yuanlang pulled out a chair and sat across from Mo Rong in a carefree manner. “I’ve been listening to your report on the progress here, but it’s still not as good as me personally coming over to take a look.”
“If there’s anything you’re dissatisfied with, please instruct me, boss,” Mo Rong asked with a smile.
Xuan Yuanlang raised his eyebrows. The relaxed look on his handsome face disappeared in an instant and was replaced by a solemn expression, “There’s a big problem. This is the first time our company has invested in the fresh fish market. The app’s page is well set up. It looks high-end and elegant, giving people a comfortable feeling, but… the source of the ingredients for seafood… Before I came here, I went to a physical shop to have a look. The salmon’s color is slightly dark, and the fat line is very light. It’s not fresh enough, and the taste is very ordinary,”
“… Australian steak. The M12 meat actually has the texture of an M5. The red shrimp from Argentina… is it still from the beginning of the year? The taste is not fresh at all. In fact, many supermarkets in the country really can’t meet the 100% standard for seafood, But the problem is that your price doesn’t match the taste of the ingredients.”
The smile on Mo Rong’s face gradually disappeared and was replaced by a stiff expression. “No, I’ve… tasted it personally before.”
Xuan Yuanlang crossed his hands. “Where did you taste it? Did you go to the store to defrost the food and taste it personally? Or did someone else bring out the old dishes for you to taste?”
Mo Rong suddenly fell silent.
An Lan secretly clicked her tongue as she listened from the side. She could not help but admire Xuan Yuanlang’s tongue. She had gone to the fresh meat market before and also felt that the taste was a little lacking, but it was definitely not so good that she could taste the quality of the beef.
Xuan Yuanlang stood up and knocked on the table with his fingers. He said to Mo Rong, “Actually, even if you can’t taste it, it’s normal because you don’t know seafood. People who really know seafood can taste it in one bite. These days there are too many places that use inferior products while pretending to advertise that they are using the best.”
“The group of people who set up the company in Xia City were all personally selected by you. I hope that you can develop well here. I’ve also told you before that what you want to do is the best in the fresh meat market. But what you’re doing is no different from the fresh supermarket in Xia City now. If you can only do this much, then you’ll be able to close up and return to Beijing very soon.”
“I’m sorry.” Mo Rong looked embarrassed.
Xuan Yuanlang patted her shoulder, “In the company, you’re my subordinate, but at the same time, you’re also my older sister. This is the first time you’ve taken up such a big project, so it’s inevitable that you’ll have some shortcomings. But this time, the reason why the board of directors asked you to come over is to support you. I hope that you won’t disappoint me. Your subordinates should do a good and thorough investigation. You can take the profits that you should take, but those that you shouldn’t take can be said to be looking at the big picture for the sake of the company. You can leave now.”
“Alright, I’ll go to the store now,” Mo Rong said and left in a hurry.
Seeing her leave, Xuan Yuanlang shrugged at An Lan and said, “I think I scared her away.”
“She didn’t scare her away. She knows what went wrong and wants to correct it,” An Lan smiled at him. Now, she finally understood that Xuan Yuanlang could be an equal to Nian Junting. Xuan Yuanlang’s eyes were sharp and decisive, after lecturing her, he knew how to be gentle and soften after.
She really admired such a person.
“My older sister…. isn’t smart enough,” Xuan Yuanlang leaned against the table and lowered his head to say to her, “But I still hope that my family members can earn more money.”
