The couple's night talk is still going on here, and on the other side, the furniture factory is also full of joy.

"Today alone, we've already received over 100 mattress pre-orders, and over 5,000 yuan in deposits. We also have a number of customers interested, so we expect the number of pre-orders to increase even more tomorrow."

Jian Shu nodded after listening and asked, "How much inventory does the factory have now?"

"In the past two days, the production line has produced a total of 400 mattresses. Excluding some that the factory has reserved, the remaining salable inventory is 350."

Spring mattress, everyone who has tried it says it’s good.

In addition to Jianshu, other factory leaders also made reservations in advance.

"The production line needs to be more efficient."

Two hundred beds a day, for this vast market, won’t even make a splash.

The head of the production department nodded and said, "Once the equipment arrives, the mattress section will be separated out separately. Then, the production will be greatly increased."

Mattresses don't fit in with the other furniture, so they've been moved to a separate building. The staff is also expanding rapidly, with veterans mentoring new employees. Once the new equipment and production lines arrive, production will begin immediately.

Jian Shu nodded. "We can't delay the order too long. In three days, no matter how much inventory the factory has, we must start delivering to the first batch of customers who have pre-ordered."

This was the first pre-sale, so customers were likely to be a bit hesitant. If it took too long, I'd probably start to suspect they were planning to run away with the money, which would be detrimental to the company's image.

"clear."

…

Three days later, in the early morning, a truck drove out of the Huaju Furniture Factory and passers-by gave way when they saw it.

This car is incredibly famous these days! To be frank, there are very few people who don’t know it.

It is the one that sends back the furniture to many people's homes.

"Huh? It doesn't look like a cabinet today?"

"Really? Let me see?"

"I know! This is a free mattress! There's no mistake. I went to the store the other day and lay on it to try it out. It looks just like this!"

"Mattress? The mattress I ordered? Was it actually delivered?"

"Hurry up, let's follow and see."

A group of people were running behind the truck. When others saw this, they thought something big was happening and started running after them.

Just like that, a large group of people soon followed.

Fortunately, the truck arrived at the destination very quickly, otherwise it would have left the group of people far behind.

As we watched the mattress being delivered to a house, the owner soon sent the deliveryman out with a smile on his face. Only then did the onlookers dare to confirm that the mattress delivery had really begun.

Someone in the crowd suddenly slapped their thigh and said, "No, I have to go reserve a bed! It's all my boss's fault. He insists that reservations are unreliable and he took the money but didn't deliver the goods. Huaju is such a big company, how could they cheat us? If we had reserved it earlier, who knows, my bed might have been delivered today!"

He said this with regret on his face.

"Sister, let's go together. I wanted to order it before, but I was worried it wouldn't be reliable. Now that they've started delivering, I feel relieved."

"We misunderstood them before. They're clearly doing this for our own good. We don't have to queue up in the middle of the night to get the goods. We just pay the deposit and wait for the goods to be delivered at home. How convenient."

"That's right. In the summer, my husband had to queue up overnight for several days before he could buy a combination cabinet. He didn't get a good night's sleep during those days. Now that the weather is cold, he can't stand queuing overnight again."

“…”

The news of the start of delivery spread quickly.

Many people who had previously hesitated no longer hesitated. What was there to hesitate about? If they didn't go now, they didn't know when they would be able to sleep on a spring mattress again!

One by one, they rushed into the store with their money, and soon a long queue formed at the reservation area.

At the end of the day, the number of mattress reservations doubled compared to the previous few days.

The furniture factory never took down the recruitment notice it had posted. With the arrival of new production equipment, the mattress production plant also expanded rapidly, barely able to meet market demand.

However, as the mattress became more and more famous, more and more wholesalers came to place orders, and soon, the supply could not meet the demand.

The furniture factory has a limited area. With the popularity of solid wood furniture and panel furniture, the factory has expanded rapidly and the land is almost insufficient.

During the winter break, Jian Shu led a team on a tour south to inspect the area, planning to open a branch of the furniture factory there. This would both ease production pressure in Beijing and reduce transportation costs.

After a round of inspection, we finally chose Xiangshan in Guangdong Province.

There are enough high-quality raw materials here to create higher-quality solid wood furniture. At the same time, it is close to Shenzhen, a port city, with well-developed waterways, which is convenient for furniture transportation. It is the perfect place.

The local government welcomes the decision of the renowned Huaju Furniture Factory to establish a branch here.

The benefits of a factory are all-encompassing.

First of all, it can provide a large number of jobs and increase the income of local residents.

Secondly, it generates tax revenue for the government, and if the government wants to get things done, it has to spend money. Only with money can they build roads, schools, and various other public facilities. To do these things, a financial foundation is essential.

In addition, only when a place develops well can it attract other investors to see it and choose to invest, forming a virtuous circle.

There are many other hidden benefits as well.

For officials who are dedicated to serving the country and the people, they certainly hope that there will be as many such factories as possible, and even those who have some ulterior motives will not push people out.

After all, as long as they do a good job, these are all political achievements! They add luster to their resumes!

Therefore, the local government gave the green light, and Jianshu acquired a large piece of land to build a new factory, and there were also various preferential policies.

After staying here for more than a week, successfully acquiring the land, and leaving the future person in charge of the factory to be responsible for building the factory and recruiting workers, Jianshu boarded the train back to Beijing.

The New Year is coming soon, and she can't waste any more time here.

This year during the Spring Festival, there was an extra happy event in my family.

Gu Zhan has been transferred back to Beijing!

This time, I am no longer in a hurry to come and go like before, but I can stay for a long time.

After decades of separation, I finally returned to my hometown.
