Zhang Ran looked at the report Liu Lu had sent over, smiled, and put the document away.

In fact, the things Tang Jing did were only because she subjectively had no such intentions; otherwise, as Liu Lu said, it would not have ended so simply.

As for those few people who plotted against Liu Lu, Zhang Ran naturally would not let them off so easily.

It was just that such matters no longer required Zhang Ran to take action personally; he only needed to give the order, and naturally, there would be people to help resolve them.

Although these people also had all sorts of connections.

They all belonged to the same circle, and when these people united, they also possessed tremendous energy.

This was also the reason why they were not afraid.

But when Zhang Ran truly became serious, there was really no one willing to go head-to-head with Zhang Ran for the sake of these few people.

If there really were such people, then Zhang Ran would not mind fighting a battle against them.

In fact, many people now understand that Zhang Ran has long since established his momentum; regardless of the situation, very few people in Huaxia cause Zhang Ran too much trouble.

These, of course, refer to matters in business.

None of Zhang Ran's industries involve monopolies, and added to that are Zhang Ran's relationships with those above.

Plus the fact that Zhang Ran has no intention of transferring funds out, along with many, many other factors.

This has created a situation where, as long as Zhang Ran does not court death himself, basically no one in Huaxia will actively look for trouble with him.

Of course, business matters depend on who has the greater ability; as long as one does not violate the law, no one will interfere.

And Zhang Ran, of course, is not afraid of such fair competition.

After putting this matter aside, Zhang Ran also looked toward Sicheng and the others.

Having spent the day inspecting Maikai Supermarket, they all had some ideas; although they were a bit tired, they were more excited than anything else.

At their age, this is exactly the time when they want to achieve something.

And what could be more fulfilling than integrating so many large groups?

Therefore, no matter how tired these people were, they would not have the slightest complaint.

Even if they did complain, it was just empty talk; if one were to really let them rest, they wouldn't even be happy about it.

"Speak up, do you have any ideas?" Zhang Ran said.

This time, Meng Mingxuan was the first to speak, "Zhang Shu, I took a look, and I also have a general understanding of the data for Maikai Supermarket. I think that for Maikai Supermarket, the most important issues are the suppliers and cash flow."

"Mm, continue," Zhang Ran said without the slightest expression.

"It's like this, there's naturally no need to say much about product suppliers; this is the lifeblood of Maikai Supermarket.

So I feel that the Headquarters needs to increase its constraints on Maikai Supermarket in this regard. This way, no matter when, Maikai Supermarket cannot ignore the opinions of the Headquarters," Ming Xuan said.

Zhang Ran said: "Then have you thought that this would also increase some expenditures? This is inherently unnecessary.

And doing retail, to put it bluntly, is just simplifying all the links and reducing costs; only then can one expand one's advantages in competition."

Meng Mingxuan had clearly thought about this problem long ago, and upon hearing this, he said: "This point can also be completely solved, and increasing constraints does not mean increasing costs.

We can completely make an issue out of the payments to suppliers."

Perhaps because he felt no fear toward Zhang Ran, Meng Mingxuan's words were also very direct.

"We can have Maikai Supermarket ensure that all payments to suppliers must go through the Headquarters. This way, it only adds a tiny bit of labor cost, but these basically don't affect anything.

But for the suppliers, whoever pays is the boss. In this way, the Headquarters will have sufficient say over Maikai Supermarket," Ming Xuan said.

Zhang Ran laughed, "If Jiao Zhen and the others heard you say this, they would really have the heart to kill you."

"Hehe, I'm doing this for your sake, Zhang Shu," Meng Mingxuan chuckled and said ingratiatingly.

Zhang Ran said: "Alright, I can give you the answer to this proposal right now: no."

Meng Mingxuan did not have much of a reaction, just simply said "oh."

This instead made Zhang Ran slightly suspicious, "You kid, you weren't bought off by Jiao Zhen and the others, were you? Did Jiao Zhen ask you to test me?"

Meng Mingxuan hurriedly said: "How could that be? I am..."

Seeing Zhang Ran's gaze, which made him feel a bit creeped out, Meng Mingxuan stopped his sentence, then said somewhat embarrassedly: "Actually, it was Jiao Shu who, through my dad, asked me to test you a little."

Zhang Ran nodded; in fact, he could understand that for such a big matter, it would be strange if Jiao Zhen really had no reaction at all.

And in fact, neither Jiao Zhen nor Meng Mingxuan had any intention of hiding it; otherwise, they wouldn't have been so direct.

"Don't let it happen again," Zhang Ran said.

He then thought for a moment and said: "Regarding the supplier matter, I am not prepared to set up any more obstacles for Maikai Supermarket. Let them do everything themselves; the Headquarters will not interfere."

This counted as a reassurance for Jiao Zhen.

"However, some of their warehouse management and logistics aspects do need to be negotiated with the Headquarters," Zhang Ran said.

He then ignored Meng Mingxuan and asked the others what opinions they had.

Next, Zhang Sicheng and the others spoke one by one, stating their own ideas.

Some ideas were very good, but some were also a bit too idealistic.

This is actually very normal; after all, they are still young, and being idealistic is the most normal thing.

They were all following their own ideas, wanting to change the operation of some rules; this is the instinct of young people.

Saying anything about changing the world now might be too adolescent, but changing some of the company's operating rules, especially those they saw as too cumbersome and old-fashioned, was still possible.

Zhang Ran commented on these ideas one by one, even the overly idealistic ones.

No matter how impractical their ideas seemed to him, Zhang Ran did not have the slightest bit of contempt; instead, he gave explanations very solemnly.

This made Zhang Sicheng and the others feel they benefited a lot.

No matter how impractical the ideas were, their fundamental purpose was for the company to operate better and to develop better.

Therefore, these ideas were all worth encouraging.

This discussion lasted until the early hours of the morning; when everyone was too sleepy to bear it, Zhang Ran let them go back to rest, while he himself continued to look at the documents.

There were too many things, and they were too important, leaving him no room to be idle.
