Zhang Hongcheng hung up the phone with Minister Li and silently calculated something in his mind.
Including the 3,000 yuan saved this time, the guesthouse's disposable cash flow is about 7,000 yuan.
Although the main business of the guesthouse is not profitable, the income and expenditure of the carpentry workshop alone is worth Minister Li sending an accountant over.
It’s not that Zhang Hongcheng is unable to develop the main business of the guesthouse, he just doesn’t want some people in the Corps who are eager to see the opportunity to have inappropriate thoughts.
If the guesthouse is crowded with guests and its main business runs smoothly, someone might start to covet its position.
Who doesn’t want to stay in the bustling city of Shanghai?
Although the main business of the guesthouse is difficult nowadays, it can still make money. No one can achieve half of his level.
This business situation is actually a layer of protection that Zhang Hongcheng created for himself.
So this time, several big bosses of the Corps took out the bait of "Model Worker" to let him run the main business of the guesthouse well.
As he thought about it, Zhang Hongcheng smiled.
Isn’t that the main business of a guesthouse?
Who says we have to put a lot of effort into the tenants? How is it possible to lower the room rates?
Old Liu from the Commercial Bureau soon received a call for help from Zhang Hongcheng.
Part of the Corps Guesthouse needed to be renovated, and Zhang Hongcheng took a fancy to a construction team under their Commerce Bureau.
Deputy Section Chief Liu didn't know how to thank Brother Zhang.
Due to limited funding, the number of projects that need construction in Shanghai each year is also limited, but many units have their own construction teams.
The main construction tasks were divided up among the construction departments and municipal construction units, and the remaining minor projects were also snatched away by related units.
The construction team under the Commerce Bureau has good decoration capabilities. The decoration of the Commerce Bureau's Investment Promotion Building and the Oriental Foreign-related Hotel are both their works.
Unfortunately, it was 1975, a time when simplicity and frugality were advocated, and their decoration works not only did not become their calling card, but instead became a burden.
Anyone who knew that they were responsible for the renovation of the China Merchants Building and Oriental Foreign Affairs Building would subconsciously refuse to let them take over the project - one was afraid of insufficient budget, and the other was afraid that the renovation would be criticized.
Deputy Section Chief Liu remembered that he had just mentioned it casually last time, saying that if the Corps ever had any construction tasks to undertake, their construction team must be given priority.
Because the construction team of the Commerce Bureau can only complete a few tasks a year, the superiors have proposed several times to transfer the construction team and merge it with other construction units.
The construction team made a fuss about this several times.
Everyone wants to continue working in the Commerce Bureau, whoever wants can leave!
At the beginning of spring, the leader brought up the construction team again, but unfortunately no tasks were assigned...
Section Chief Xiao Zhang nominally asked Lao Liu to repay a favor, but in reality he owed the other party another favor.
This person is so approachable!
The guesthouse gave us 5,000 yuan for the renovation and there was no intention of dragging our feet.
The construction team from the Bureau of Commerce arrived that afternoon.
I was afraid that Zhang Hongcheng would suddenly regret it.
All guesthouses these days are the same, and their entrances are simple and unpretentious.
Who would have the time to decorate a proper guesthouse?
It's not an external reception unit.
Zhang Hongcheng is not very serious.
The Corps Guesthouse, which already has inflated room prices and hardly any guests, is planning to drastically renovate the restaurant, kitchen, and first-floor reception room.
This was not a sudden idea of Zhang Hongcheng.
For example, the newly designed minimalist sofa furniture set plan was awarded to furniture factories and fabric factories last year.
His reasons for renovating were also very good.
Didn’t you say that my main job is bad?
I raised money for the renovation myself just to strengthen my main business.
There were no guests in the guesthouse at all, which made it very convenient for the decoration team to move in.
The only people who were dissatisfied with the guesthouse's renovation were the residents of the nearby streets.
It’s not that they blame the renovation team for disturbing others, but the west entrance and exit on the first floor of the guesthouse was also temporarily closed.
There was a small sign there - Medical Room of the Corps Guesthouse in Shanghai.
In the past few months, who among the nearby residents doesn’t know that Dr. Xiao Chu in the guesthouse’s medical room is a skilled doctor?
Sometimes for minor illnesses and disasters, Doctor Chu doesn’t prescribe much medicine, but a few acupuncture treatments can cure them.
There are also several residents who suffer from chronic diseases. After taking the Chinese medicine prescribed by Dr. Chu, their condition has improved recently.
The hall on the east side of the guesthouse was deserted, while there was a long queue at the west side door.
Several female temporary workers would come over from time to time to act as nurses.
They do not take care of patients, they are only responsible for queuing residents and maintaining order.
This was Zhang Hongcheng's idea to take care of his girlfriend.
There are only forty numbers a day, and I won’t look at more than that.
There are many patients who come here because of the reputation, and the number of appointments is becoming increasingly tight. There is even a trend of giving up appointments as a favor.
Since Zhang Hongcheng is planning to renovate his office, how could he not decorate his girlfriend's office?
The medical room of the Corps’ guesthouse in Shanghai will be temporarily closed for half a month.
The residents around Zhang Hongcheng, who were originally very friendly to him, now looked strange when they saw him.
Jian Yong finally returned from his hometown.
A lot of stuff in big and small bags.
Half of them were entrusted to him by Zhang Hongcheng's family.
Unfortunately, Zhang Hongcheng was only happy for a few seconds.
Among the things that Pei Shujing and Zhang Yumin asked Jian Yong to bring this time, 88% of the gifts were actually for Chu Miaohong!
He got two pieces of clothing.
The sweater was knitted by Pei Shujing and the gloves were made by Zhang Yumin.
Zhang Yumin secretly brought the gloves to Jian Yong.
The image of this pair of cotton gloves is somewhat abstract, with all five fingers being of the same length.
