“Eh, have you read the evening papers? The City Bureau had a joint operation with Tai Hua Supermarket and busted a thieve syndicate. The higher-ups said that this syndicate if from other provinces. They saw Tai Hua Supermarket had good business, so they went there to steal. But in the end, one of them was caught by the Supermarket securities, and the City Bureau leader leads his men to arrest more than 30 people!”

“Really? I will buy a copy later. These thieves were too much. They should be punished severely.” One of them angrily replied. He had been pickpocketed before when he had gotten his salary.

“This time, these people will be punished severely. I heard that this syndicate was involved in many other crimes. The lowest punishment for them is at least 1 year in the labor camps. The City Bureau really did a great job. This is what the police should do!”

“I feel it is the security guards at Tai Hua Supermarket who had done a good job. They are the ones that caught the thief. The last time I went to XX shopping mall, my wallet was stolen, and that mall did not even care. Tai Hua Supermarket is much better.”

“That’s right. Tai Hua Supermarket sells things cheaper than other places too. If you buy a lot of stuff, you can save up to 100 RMB!”

“Ya. I had received a promotional brochure yesterday. There will be a sale this coming weekend.”

“Really? There is another sale this weekend? I thought last week there was a sale? Why do they have sales every week?”

“Who knows? Anyway, we will be the ones who will benefit from this. I will be going this weekend. Are you going?”

“Yes. Even if I am not getting anything, window shopping there is also fine. That place is too spacious.”

……

Brother Hei and his accomplices were arrested, and Chief Li purposely let others know that they were detained at Tai Hua Supermarket. This was a form of deterrence to other thieves.

This was a warning to all criminals that they should not target Tai Hua Supermarket!

Feng Yu had also used his connections to publish this incident in the evening newspapers. On the one hand, it was to praise the City Police Bureau and the local Police, especially Chief Li. The other hand, it was to publicize Tai Hua Supermarket. Lastly, it was to spread the news to any criminals that Tai Hua Supermarket was not to be trifled with.

When this news was published, Chief Li immediately called Feng Yu to thank him. This article will increase the Police and his reputation. Although he will not be promoted directly, the higher-ups will notice and have a good impression of him.

There were a lot of stolen goods recovered from this operation. The owner of most of these goods could not found, and the police procedure was to take care of these internally. A portion of the recovered goods will be handed over to the City Bureau and the rest split between the police stations. The local police stations will have more funds, and the police officers became more motivated.


You want the police officers to work harder and be more motivated, but their reimbursements were delayed for a few months. How could they be motived and be passionate in their job?

All criminals knew about Tai Hua Supermarket because of this report. Although there was a constant crowd at Tai Hua Supermarket, the thieves will still avoid this place because of Brother Hei.

In the past, the punishment for stealing was at most lock up for 3 to 5 days. The more severe cases were also 2 weeks. But Brother Hei and his accomplices were charged in court!

This was only petty theft, and it should not be so severe.

But even if these criminals did not know what happens exactly, but this was the truth. The article had said that all 30 over people in the syndicate will be sentenced to jail.

This Tai Hua Supermarket is a scary place which no one dares to go near.

Beijing was a big place. Other than Tai Hua Supermarket, there were still many places for them to steal. Those places will not be so scary.

The newspaper report also reported that Tai Hua Supermarket’s security guards were all ex-soldiers. All of them were fit and agile.

If a thief were caught, they would be beaten up by the security officers. This was a common practice.

The police also knew about this. But they will not care. If the public saw this, it will be worst. The public will also join in to beat up the thief!

Overall, thieves will get the worst treatment among all criminals.

Tai Hua Supermarket also created publicity for this incident. They told this incident in the form of a story over the radio. The name, Tai Hua Supermarket was repeated several times in the story. They wanted to let the name of their supermarket stick with the listeners.

As long as the listeners were curious about this supermarket, they will visit when they pass by Tai Hua Supermarket. They will become Tai Hua Supermarket customers unknowingly.

Those who had visited Tai Hua Supermarket will still want to visit that place again. There was always something on promotion.

Actually, Tai Hua Supermarket has promotional items every day. This was set even before their opening. There were a wide variety of products, and every day, these brands will take turns to have promotions.

Today it is your turn, and you must have a special promotional price for your products even if you are not willing. It’s not your turn, and you want to promote your products? No problem. Pay up first!

No matter what, the supermarket will have profits. The cost of the promotions will be bored by the brands. This will also increase the customers, sales, reputation for the supermarket.

Every week, new promotions leaflets will be printed. Also, during festive seasons, there will be more programs for shoppers. These were all arranged by supermarket managers.

As the shoppers of the supermarket's increases, coupled with this incident, people knew that the security at Tai Hua Supermarket is excellent and there were more enquires about the empty shop spaces in the Tai Hua Supermarket.

In the past, many people felt the rent was too high. Also, Tai Hua Supermarket Corporation had a condition which put off many potential customers. But these people saw the traffic and security at Tai Hua Supermarket, and they changed their minds.

No matter how good a product was, no businessmen would sell their products at a low human traffic place.

These businessmen thought the crowd at Tai Hua Supermarket would only last for a few days after their opening and there will not be so many shoppers after that. The craze will die off eventually. This was normal.

But soon they realized that Tai Hua Supermarket has promotions every day. Although the number of shoppers was not as high as the first few days, it was still very high. During weekends, the number of shoppers was almost like the opening day.

This was an excellent location to set up their shops. These businessmen no longer hesitate. They approached Tai Hua Supermarket Corporation to try to rent some shop spaces. The first few to contact were some jewelry and accessories businessmen. They were satisfied with the traffic and security at Tai Hua Supermarket and feel safe to set up their shops there.

These shops were the most concern with safety and security. They were assured at Tai Hua Supermarket!

……

“Manager Feng, after we publicized our security officers had caught the thief, many companies had approached us to rent the shops. I think all our shops will be rented out within this month. We also do not need to lower the rents!”

“Ok. Choose those reputable companies and brands. We must not let our reputation be tarnish because of profits. You should be more experience at this than me. I will leave everything to you.”

If this matter could be handled by others, Feng Yu would not do it himself. This was why these people were hired.

A thief was caught in their supermarket, and this should not be a good thing. But who would expect things to turn out this way?
