Chapter 141 The Speed ??of Life and Death
Chapter 141 Speed of Life and Death
Jing'an Temple and Jiuguang Department Store have become one of the most famous business districts in Shanghai since their opening in 2004.
It was Thursday, and there were no classes in the afternoon, so Ma Liang took a taxi and came here.
He came here specially to pick out New Year's gifts. Sister Jiang University and Liu Yaonv both had to prepare one as a way of expressing their gratitude for their previous help.
Money belongs to money, profit belongs to profit, and friendship belongs to friendship. If you can't even distinguish this, you will have lived two lives in vain.
But choosing gifts for women is really a headache for men.
Giving money directly is too vulgar, does not reflect your intentions, and has no sense of ceremony at all. Only well-chosen gifts can better express your feelings.
Ma Liang went to the Longines counter to pick out a women's watch, and then went to the Tiffany flagship store to buy a necklace. Although these two are big brands, they are not particularly luxurious.
Moreover, the ones he bought were all entry-level models, which only cost a few thousand yuan more.
It can not only express your feelings, but also make it less stressful for others to receive. It can be said that the gift matter is settled.
I was thinking about taking some time off on New Year's Day to send gifts to my two daughters.
The watch was given to Liu Feifei, a seductress, and the necklace was chosen for Sister Jiang University. Anyway, Ma Liang was rich now, so buying these two gifts didn't bother him at all.
After buying the gifts, I was just about to take a taxi back to the factory to have a look around when I received a call from the store manager He Feng.
"Boss, come to the store quickly, something big has happened." He Feng's anxious voice came from the mobile phone, sounding panicked.
Ma Liang was stunned when he heard this and didn't react for a moment: "What's the problem again?"
He never imagined that anything big could happen if he opened a store in a shopping mall. Usually, if something goes wrong, the security guards at the shopping mall won't just look at it.
"A customer has food poisoning. The industrial, commercial and health departments are all here, saying they want to shut us down. Please come here quickly." He Feng almost cried, and he was also very frightened.
If it was really food poisoning, he, as the store manager, would not be able to escape the blame and would definitely be implicated.
Such a big thing was completely beyond the scope of his authority as the store manager, so he could only call the boss Ma Liang to come and handle it.
Ma Liang was so shocked that he almost dropped his cell phone. This is what he fears most in the catering business.
But he was a reborn boss after all, and he had seen some storms in his previous life, and he quickly calmed down.
Food poisoning? Impossible!
The ingredients for [Red Lip Chuan Chuan Xiang] were purchased by him personally, and the food processing factory was also opened by himself. There was no third party involved, so how could there be any problems?
Even the short delivery distance from the factory to the store is a full cold chain transportation, so the ingredients cannot go bad. He would never believe that he would get food poisoning from eating them.
[Red Lip Chuanchuan Incense] has only been open for a few days. Even if someone wants to guard and steal it, they are not familiar with it yet and there is no way they can do it so quickly.
The Longemont store opened not long ago. Food poisoning? It’s too soon.
No matter how he thought about it, Ma Liang found it unbelievable, and now there were only two possibilities.
One is that there is a small probability event that a customer is allergic to a certain ingredient; the other is that someone is jealous of the Chuan Chuan Xiang business and deliberately frames him and sets up a trap to trap him.
But whether the situation is the first or the second, it is not so easy to handle now that it has happened.
Fortunately, it was not the third situation, where a large number of guests got food poisoning.
If that were the case, it wouldn't be He Feng's turn to call him to inform him. The police might have come to arrest him by now.
He hurriedly shouted to the other end of the phone: "He Feng, try your best to deal with the people from the industrial and commercial and health departments. Stabilize the situation. I'll be here right away. I'll be there in twenty minutes."
"Okay, I'll do my best, boss, hurry up!" He Feng hung up the phone reluctantly, for fear that Ma Liang would really run away.
Ma Liang didn't have any thoughts on how to deliver the gift, so she hurried to the store.
The taxi was driving very fast, and he was constantly thinking about countermeasures in his mind. When encountering this kind of problem, he must come up with a solution immediately, otherwise the business will be ruined if it is not handled well.
If the super internet celebrity snack in the previous life was ruined like this, there would really be no place to cry.
His brain was spinning rapidly, thinking of different ways to deal with the two situations. Under tremendous pressure, Ma Liang's mind was extremely clear at this moment.
He subconsciously dismissed the small probability event from his mind.
How could there be so many coincidences in this world that he just happened to bump into him? It happened that a customer was allergic to a certain ingredient?
In the previous life, [Red Lips Chuanchuan Incense] had been open for so many years, but I had never heard of such a thing. How could it happen to him, and it was such a coincidence just a few days after opening the store?
Ma Liang didn't believe it. He became more and more suspicious that someone was deliberately causing trouble.
But if this is the case, then this matter will be even more difficult to handle.
Since he dares to take action, it means he is very confident. And it is definitely not just reporting to the industrial and commercial and health departments, there may be other bad tricks waiting for him.
Ma Liang kept thinking in his heart, how to deal with it if it really happened as he thought.
He was so filled with hatred that he didn't know which bastard could be so hateful as to stab him in the back like this.
Since rebirth, no one seems to have offended anyone by going to death.
After thinking about it, a vague figure gradually became clear in his mind.
The most important thing is that there is only one person who can come up with such a trick to deal with him and get the industrial, commercial and health departments to jointly take action so quickly.
That is my ex-husband, Su Mingyuan.
Apart from this guy, Ma Liang couldn't think of anyone else.
He immediately called Sister Bingmei and briefly explained the situation. This was not the time to be falsely polite. When life and death were at stake, he had to learn how to use others' strength.
When he arrived at the Longemont Shopping Mall, the situation was just as he expected, and there was really a bad move following behind.
Even the TV station's foreign reporters and cameramen came over to interview.
If his ex-husband hadn't tricked him, Ma Liang wouldn't have believed it.
"Boss, you're finally here! This is our boss Ma. If you have anything, you can tell him." He Feng almost collapsed when he saw Ma Liang's arrival.
In front of the Chuanchuan Incense stall, there were many customers surrounding it in three circles inside and outside.
The industrial, commercial and health departments directly ordered businesses to close for rectification, and the victims of food poisoning even brought TV stations to expose them. This is a rhythm that will lead to death.
I finally found a good job and met a good boss. Who would have thought that something like this would happen.
Having worked in the catering industry for so long, He Feng knows that such an incident is almost a devastating blow to a catering brand. Even if it is resolved later, the business will plummet.
Originally, he was thinking about getting a promotion and a salary increase, and reaching the top of his life, but now it's all over.
It doesn’t matter whether I can keep this store or my job, let alone my future career development.
Not only the store manager He Feng thought so, but also the deputy store manager Ni Xiuyun and all the employees looked ashen.
Ma Liang has seen everything. As a boss, he cannot escape or hide. He must face this crisis head-on.
"Are you the boss of [Red Lip Chuan Chuan Xiang]?
Is your food purchasing channel formal?
Does the production and processing process comply with health and safety standards? Why do food poisoning occur?”
The female reporter rushed up to Ma Liang and almost hit him in the face with the microphone.
I asked several questions in a row, and they were all not given a chance to answer. As soon as I asked them, it seemed as if I had the answer. What a sinister intention.
At this time, joint law enforcement officers from the industrial, commercial and health departments also came forward: "You are Ma Liang, the boss and legal representative of [Red Lips Chuan Chuan Xiang], right?
This is the "Notice of Order to Correction" given to you, please read it carefully!
Due to the incident of food poisoning by a customer in your store, we have ordered the store to suspend operations and actively cooperate with us in investigating and collecting evidence, pending further processing."
Ma Liang received the "Notice of Order to Correction" and suddenly understood.
This matter has pushed [Red Lips Chuan Chuan Chuan Xiang] to a dead end, and it will be completely impossible to continue the business unless it is resolved.
Didn’t you see that even reporters from the TV station came to expose it?
My husband's ability in the past might be shown on Donghai TV tonight, and it would definitely be exposed on the most popular social news program for the common people.
Once the program is aired, it will be like mud falling off your crotch, it will be shit or shit.
At this moment, it was a matter of life and death for Ma Liang, and he had to use the fastest means to solve the problem that was related to the survival of the store.
In extraordinary times, use thunderbolt measures!
Without even thinking about it, he immediately put away the "Notice of Order to Correction" and whispered to He Feng to run away with the notice.
Because there is no way out now, he plans to fight head-on!
Chapter completed!
