Chapter 48

Xia Ke was one of the few villagers who followed the town government's official WeChat account. The day after the government meeting, the meeting's content was written into a promotional article and posted on the WeChat account.

"Dad, look."

Xia Ke held the phone up to her father's eyes.

After Xia's father saw what was on the screen, he was very pleased with himself, saying, "I knew my choice back then was right."

This refers to the time when Xia Ke's father objected to her decision to locate the company in Hongqi Village, but she insisted on doing so.

It is precisely because of her persistence that the development of Hongqi Piao Company has been able to drive the economic development of the surrounding areas.

It's safe to say that Xia Ke deserves a large part of the credit for the prosperity of Hongqi Village and Hongqi Town today.

Ignoring his daughter's smug expression, Xia's father, at the age of fifty, jumped up with joy after reading the news.

Who wouldn't want their hometown to become richer and more prosperous? Xia's father will always remember the disdainful and contemptuous looks he received from others when he mentioned his hometown to people in other provinces when he was young and went to work there.

Poverty is the original sin.

But they didn't want to be poor either. The villagers of Hongqi Village are hardworking and can endure hardship. They don't steal or rob, and they earn their living with their own hands. However, due to the obstacles of the mountains and the underdeveloped transportation, they are unable to make their hometown rich.

He had thought his hometown would remain unknown forever in the mountains, but now it is radiating new vitality, and all of this is thanks to his daughter.

"Coco, well done! Great job!" The usually reserved man couldn't contain his joy and gave Xia Ke a big thumbs up.

After praising his daughter, Mr. Xia took his phone and went out to tell his old friends the good news.

This government WeChat post was quickly disseminated to every household in Hongqi Village, and then spread outwards from Hongqi Village. Soon, every household in the villages under the town knew about the government's new plan, and even those who were working or studying away from home received a message from their parents in their hometown forwarding it.

The basic framework for future development has been set for now, but things must be done step by step. This concerns the lives of countless villagers in the town, and the government's work plan prioritizes stability.

With the year-end approaching, this should be a quiet time, but the staff of Hongqi Town Government are extremely busy. They even had to borrow many people from other units to help out because of staff shortages.

While the town government was busy, the employees of Hongqipiao were also very busy.

Busy packing things.

Today is the auspicious day for moving, as chosen by Xia's mother through a fortune teller. The group chat has already announced that everyone is off work today and should focus on moving, making sure to get the new office and residence ready and tidy within the day.

Xia Ke's office didn't have much stuff, so she didn't ask the already busy Liu Yun for help. Instead, she called her father, and the two of them moved everything in one trip.

After helping Xia Ke move, Xia's father went to help Xia An.

Actually, we hired a professional moving company for this move. As long as we prepared the things to be moved in advance, the moving company would move the things to the new residence. The only thing the employees had to do was to help the moving company decide on the storage locations for the items and to rearrange and organize the items after the move was completed.

Xia's father went there simply because he couldn't stay idle and wanted to find something to do.

Xia Ke's office is on the 20th floor of the main office building, with its own private elevator.

After getting off the private elevator, you arrive at Xia Ke's office.

That's right, the entire top floor is her and her assistants' space.

The rooftop design includes offices, living quarters, a reception area, a meeting room, an exercise area, and even a rooftop outdoor swimming pool.

Her assistants' offices only occupied one-third of the floor space; the remaining two-thirds belonged to Xia Ke.

Extremely luxurious, with exquisite details in every aspect.

Xia Ke walked through the elegantly decorated office, carrying a folder, feeling incredibly satisfied.

This is truly dazzling and opulent!

If you ask Xia Ke if she is worried about being criticized for using an entire floor as her office, she might say that she is too extravagant.

She would definitely answer.

What's there to worry about? She works herself to the bone to earn points and make money, all so that she and her family can live well. Besides, the entire Hongqi Piao Park is her personal property. She has the money to live as luxuriously as she wants, and it's none of anyone else's business.

After touring the office, Xia Ke found the empty office uninteresting, so she decided to watch the company move out.

The Hongqi Piao Industrial Park mainly consists of three buildings used for office space. One is the 20-story main building where Xia Ke is currently located, and the other two are twin annex buildings. Floors 1-6 of the annex buildings are a shopping mall planned by the company, and the office buildings are located above the shopping mall. The two annex buildings are also 20 stories high.

This is the company's regional plan.

The 20th floor of the main building is Xia Ke's and his assistants' offices. Floors 17 to 19 of the main building are the laboratory of the bionic prosthetics project department and the office space for other staff members of the department. Floors 15 and 16 of the main building are the territory of the constant temperature clothing project department. Floors 11 to 14 of the main building are the location of the flying car project department. Floors 9 and 10 of the main building are the company's customer service department, and the entire 8th floor is the finance department.

The location of the finance department was specially calculated by the master. Xia Ke thought that since the moving time had been specially calculated, it would be a waste of her money to hire the master to calculate the finance department, which is so important and manages money. So she simply calculated it as well.

Floors 6 and 7 house offices for other functional departments, floor 5 is the business department's domain, floors 3 and 4 are occupied by the marketing department, and the remaining two floors have the highest ceilings, are spacious and well-lit, and are used as the company's showroom.

Besides the front desk and reception area, the remaining space on the first floor, which connects to the staircase on the second floor, has also been used as an exhibition area.

The two annex buildings are not yet in use. Xia Ke plans to place the new project's R&D personnel in the annex buildings once she purchases a new project from the system.

The new office layout was actually based on the future size of the department, so now each floor is quite spacious, and everyone's workspace is finally no longer as cramped as before.

After the moving company was instructed to move the office supplies to the new workstations, the employees began moving their belongings to their residences.

The small building originally used as dormitory for the original workers was no longer sufficient after the expansion of the workforce. At that time, the new industrial park was not yet fully renovated, so Xia Ke simply had five hotels in the county town booked long-term specifically for use as dormitories for the new employees.

As for why the staff dormitory was booked in a hotel in the county town instead of the town, it was because the conditions of the hotels in their town were really bad at the time. Perhaps because no one had lived there for a long time, the decoration was old and outdated, and you could smell a musty smell as soon as you entered.

Xia Ke went in once and gave up the idea of ​​using the place to house her employees. Her employees were all carefully selected from all over the country by the HR department. She couldn't scare them away because of the poor living conditions. So in the end, she arranged for them to be stationed in the county town and travel between the company and the hotel every day through the space ring.

Of course, with more people coming now, the hygiene and decoration of the hotels in the town have become more and more luxurious, but Hongqi Piao Company no longer needs to rent hotels as employee dormitories, because the company's own dormitories have been renovated.

Before the move, the company had already surveyed the employees' preferences and assigned dormitories in advance, so on the day of the move, the employees only needed to deliver their personal belongings to their assigned dormitories in advance.

The Hongqi Piao employee dormitory consists of three buildings, with one-bedroom apartments and two- or three-bedroom layouts, with one-bedroom apartments being the most common.

The company provides one-bedroom employee dormitories free of charge, but employees with two or more bedrooms need to pay half the market price to obtain the right to use them.

Providing accommodation for new employees is the company's responsibility. However, the company is not obligated to provide accommodation for employees' spouses and families at the same time. Moreover, the company is concerned about inequality rather than scarcity. Everyone knows that two- or three-bedroom apartments are spacious and comfortable, and everyone wants to live in one. So, who should these apartments be allocated to? It's not good to allocate them to just anyone. Therefore, we simply set a price list, and those who need it can pay to buy comfort.

Xia Ke is very willing to protect her employees' housing rights, but she hates people who take more than their share and also hates using employees' benefits to seek personal gain.

Employees who have applied for a two-bedroom or larger dormitory unit are not allowed to apply for a one-bedroom dormitory unit. Each employee can only have one dormitory unit provided by the company and cannot occupy both free and paid dormitory units simultaneously, nor can they rent two paid dormitory units at the same time. Employee dormitories are for the exclusive use of the employee and their family members. It is strictly forbidden to rent the dormitory to other people. Anyone found doing so will be immediately dismissed.

After moving, Hongqi Piao once again got back to her busy work.

"Your country has lifted export restrictions on flying cars for some reason. A mission is now issued: export 50 million flying cars and thermostatic suits. The mission reward is 50 points."

"System, isn't this reward a bit too stingy? The two of you sold a combined total of 100 million items, and you're only giving us 50 points?"

"After evaluation, the points reward for this task is reasonable and fair."

"Tell me, what kind of reasonable and fair law is this?"

"The products that the host is exporting this time have already been contracted out with other countries by your country. The host's company only needs to produce the products to complete the task. Strictly speaking, this is a low-level task. It is only because of the large quantity that a reward of fifty points has been given."

What the system said is true, but fifty points is really too little!
