The Goddess Shines on America

In a few months, Britain has become the new battlefield for Alice's career. After all, I have studied in this country for many years, and it would be a pity if I couldn't leave some permanent imprints before I left.

On the south bank of the River Thames in London, the Millennium Bridge is nearby, and Vanda's first commercial plaza is located here. This is the northern part of the southern part of London. It is still far away from the large residential areas in the south, and it is located in the bustling center. There are many people working during the day, and the traffic is even louder during the rush hour. It is the best way to absorb people. place.

The construction site started as early as February, and when late April came, the outline of the buildings had already taken shape. Stone slabs have covered a spacious space of tens of thousands of square meters. Six 150-meter-high skyscrapers stand on the south bank of the Thames River. Multi-functional office buildings surround a seven-storey shopping mall. There are advertisements for investment and news of new business joining. It was posted on the poster for a long time earlier.

At the same time, "Vanda Square is the center of the city", this crazy slogan can be regarded as clearly remembered by the commuting crowd.

"Very, very, very, really thank you very much!"

At the gate of the construction site, the silver-haired Phil Bellen was holding Alice's hands, his fair and tender face was blushing, and he was obviously so excited: "This supermarket is one-third bigger than our own! And you We don’t need any shares, just a little rent... Our turnover has doubled here! I, I mean..."

The senior was so excited that she couldn't speak well, the junior thought about it, and it would be better to make her speechless, and kissed her face intimately: "Don't talk about those useless things, what do we have to do?" Ah, am I short of your share? Oh, Mr. and Mrs. Beren."

She turned her head and said to Fang Fang, who was eating soy sauce, "Let's stop standing here and go in and have a look."

Mr. Beren has short platinum-blonde hair, and Mrs. Beren has the same silver-colored long hair as his daughter. Presumably, none of their other children will have thick hair. The two are dressed exquisitely, with elegant temperament and personable demeanor. Regardless of their appearance, they know that they must be a combination of handsome men and beautiful women.

"Alice, I am more interested in these office buildings than the supermarkets under construction."

Everyone walked into the construction site, because the progress of the project had reached the stage of interior decoration, so they were not afraid of getting their clothes dirty in their suits and leather shoes. Mr. Belen looked up and looked at the office buildings where the final glass curtain wall was being installed, and said with great interest: "How many years of urban development have told us that the construction of office buildings will definitely drive up housing prices in surrounding areas. The southern residential area is relatively close, will it cause the trouble of rising living costs for residents?"

"If it is a newly bought house, it must be the case. As for the people who have already lived here, they will get benefits." Alice has already prepared answers to such questions: "As for the new tenants, since they bought The house is adjacent to the high-end office building area, and the price rise is of course normal. The natural law of economic development, the planning and area expansion of urban functional areas.”

Chatting with you and me, everyone quickly walked into the first floor of the shopping mall. At this time, the decoration construction was still going on, and the roar of electric drills could be heard everywhere, and the workers kept walking around. It should be regarded as the entrance of the supermarket, just in front of the newly installed escalator, there is a vast open space inside, and on the right side of the entrance, there is a long corridor leading to the distance.

Mrs. Belen asked, "Where is this road?"

"Entrance, and then customers can continue to shop on this street on their way back to the escalator from the exit."

Alice led the family directly to the small commercial street. This is not the key area of ​​construction, but the basic outlines of the shops have already been built. "Fast food restaurants, snack shops, cheap fast-moving clothing stores, tea and coffee takeaway, such a layout from the outside to the inside. After all, for most office workers, it is always good to be able to eat without walking a few places. , including anyone coming down the escalator."

The Beilun family started out by opening a supermarket, and they have managed the "Alice" in Windsor Town with great success for many years. Now that they have plans to open a chain, it naturally shows that their business vision is not bad. Now, walking along this small commercial street with their big owner, Mr. Beren and Mrs. Belen looked left and right, constantly thinking about what it will look like after it is completed.

"Small shops with higher and more stable customer flow should be closer to the exit. The idea is correct. Presumably, not many customers will go to the supermarket hungry. On the contrary, many people can take the elevator to the basement floor for a full meal. After a meal, I went to the supermarket by the way."

"The small shop in the innermost place should be of the boutique type." This is thinking about the distribution of future neighbors in her new supermarket, how can Mrs. Belen not care. "As Alice said, coffee and tea takeaway stores can even be pharmacies! Yes, Alice, hasn't your umbrella company bought a pharmaceutical factory, so opening a pharmacy under it can be regarded as integration industrial chain?"

"Oh, thank you for your suggestion, but that's a bit of a taboo." However, Alice waved her hand and said, "It's not a typical monopoly. It's a small scale, but I want to Be the number one person in the world, Mrs. Beren~"

The three members of Belen's family laughed lightly, saying that this shopping street is long enough, so it can be seen that the size of the supermarket is really not small.

Of course, Vanda's first commercial real estate, the first supermarket chain to which the real estate belongs, of course can't be bad in appearance. At the same time, on the ground, six 150-meter-high glass-curtain skyscrapers look like a striking new commercial center from a distance, especially since it is on the banks of the Thames River, such a unique location.

A visit to a small commercial street, and then a visit to a whole large supermarket. Of course, Alice will not treat "Alice" badly. She is not short of money, so she directly built a large flat on the scale of Wal-Mart. You know, she doesn't own any shares in the company of Hao Xuejie, she just collects the rent. Compared with the wealth that can be obtained by other means, her sum is really very generous.

"The innermost one is the pharmacy!" Finally walking to the end of the small commercial street, the other side is the cash register area, Alice pointed to the vacant space in the innermost store and said: "Think about it, many people who love to go to the supermarket will They are housewives, and their demand for weight loss is not so high. At that time, I don’t need to open a pharmacy, just let them sign a large order with the umbrella? Weight loss medicine!”

Of course Phil and her mother laughed, and Mr. Belen interjected: "Pay your rent, sell your medicine, and use part of the money earned from selling your medicine to pay your rent! Tsk tsk, This relationship is really interesting enough, oh yes..."

The whole family walked towards the inside of the supermarket. Mr. Belen pondered for a moment and said: "Alice, I almost forgot that you are still a young writer. Do you want to have some bookstores inside and outside the supermarket? Like the "Haha" you are writing. "Libert" series, seven years, but there is no need to worry about the lack of things to display in the bookstore, right?"

Now that the topic has been brought here, it is natural that Mrs. Beren has to be excited. Of course, this family does not have only one child. Senior Phil's younger brother just turned eleven this year, and happened to watch Alice's "Harry Potter" at this time. So, clamoring to go to Hogwarts to study is not news. The family even promised to cancel the planned summer vacation travel plan, just to let him wait for the letter from the owl.

"Oh, Harry Potter..."

Since she was with the whole family, Alice would of course think of the little boy who inherited her father's platinum hair color: "Fortunately, our family's 'Ginny' has passed the time of daydreaming, otherwise...in fact I really want to see her riding a broom, jumping around the room..."

Some laughter, especially Mr. Beren's laughter, was extraordinarily loud. Thinking about my eleven-year-old son, the father couldn't help but shake his head: "I'm not afraid of making fun of you when I say it. Although my son doesn't have the same personality as Draken Malfoy, he really regards him as a little idol." Yes. This stinky boy, ignoring the Boy Who Lived, actually worships a villain-type character~"

"But Draco is really handsome!" Senior sister Phil was not happy with her father's evaluation, and immediately pouted. Alice thought so. After all, Malfoy's setting is a standard domineering president, at least from the perspective of romance.

Well, the so-called green tea whore in the eyes of girls, and the sunny guy in the eyes of boys, aren't they the type that the opposite sex likes the most and you hate the most?

Well, so, if a pure goddess falls in love with a hooligan, a sunny boy falls in love with a punk girl, don’t feel bad about falling out of love, it just means that someone has found the wrong type~

In a huge supermarket, where to put what is the parents' business, Alice and Phil took a walk wantonly in the wide open space. Even though it is still in the renovation stage, the ground is still rough cement, but this is also a supermarket after all, it is for a supermarket, how can we stop girls from shopping~?

"If the turnover is doubled, we will be able to open the third branch sooner."

Phil was very excited, holding Alice in his arms and talking non-stop: "Then there is profit rolling, snowballing, as long as there are no problems with the business strategy and no devastating blows, we will be able to open a hundred stores sooner or later! One hundred stores, Alice, this is not a Starbucks coffee shop, but a hundred large supermarkets!"
