“Late Autumn, the food workshop is growing larger and larger. With Master Wang and Xiao Gang overseeing the planting base, both yield and quality are guaranteed. The production line in the workshop is also becoming more and more mature, and the workers are becoming more and more skilled.” Shen Tingzhou took a sip of tea and said in a calm tone, “However, I feel that our food workshop’s management model is no longer keeping up with the development. We are still using the old methods, relying on experience for management, and lacking a set of standardized systems and processes. If this continues, problems will inevitably arise sooner or later.”

Lin Wanqiu wholeheartedly agreed. She had long been aware of this problem. As the food workshop continued to grow, the number of employees increased, and the business scope expanded. Relying solely on experience for management was no longer sufficient to meet the needs of the company's development. Recalling the management models of modern enterprises in her previous life, she had a bold idea.

“You’re right, Tingzhou,” Lin Wanqiu said firmly. “I plan to introduce modern corporate management models and establish a set of standardized management systems and processes. For example, we will establish a human resources management system to standardize employee recruitment, training, assessment, and promotion; establish a production management system to clarify the responsibilities and operating procedures of each position to ensure product quality; and establish a financial management system to strengthen cost control and financial management to improve the company’s economic efficiency.”

A hint of surprise flashed in Shen Tingzhou's eyes, and he quickly said, "That's a great idea! Modern enterprise management models are indeed more scientific and standardized, and can make the food workshop's operation more efficient and orderly. However, no one here understands modern enterprise management, so how can we implement it?"

Lin Wanqiu smiled and said confidently, "I've read a lot about modern enterprise management in books before, and I have a general understanding of some implementation methods. Moreover, I can ask someone to buy some relevant books and materials from the provincial capital or Beijing, and we can study and research them together. In addition, we can invite some experienced management experts to the food workshop to provide guidance and help us establish and improve our management system."

Grandma Shen looked up, a supportive smile on her face: "Wanqiu, you and Tingzhou are both resourceful and capable people. Do whatever you want, Mom supports you. As long as the food shop gets better and better, and our family gets better and better, Mom has no objections."

Looking at the trust in Grandma Shen's eyes, Lin Wanqiu felt a surge of warmth in her heart. She knew that with the support of her family, she and Shen Tingzhou would definitely be able to overcome all difficulties and manage the food shop even better.

“Alright, then it’s settled.” A determined glint flashed in Shen Tingzhou’s eyes. “Tomorrow I’ll have someone go to the provincial capital to buy relevant books and materials. You’ll be responsible for organizing your thoughts and developing a preliminary implementation plan. Once the materials are back, we’ll study them together and gradually promote the introduction of modern enterprise management models.”

Lin Wanqiu nodded, her heart filled with anticipation. She knew that introducing modern enterprise management models was an inevitable trend for the food workshop's development, and also an important guarantee for its large-scale and standardized development. Although this process might encounter various difficulties and challenges, she believed that as long as she and Shen Tingzhou were of one mind and worked hand in hand, they would definitely succeed.

Outside the window, night deepened, and the moonlight, like water, bathed the fields and villages of the Hongqi Production Brigade in tranquility and peace. The lights of the "Natural Taste" food workshop remained bright, illuminating the peaceful village and the hopes in the hearts of Lin Wanqiu and Shen Tingzhou. Shen Xiaogang's growth showed them the potential of the younger generation; and the introduction of modern enterprise management models pointed the way for the future development of the food workshop.
