I'd like to know the conditions of a five-yuan hotel.
They actually did stay there, even in places that cost three yuan. They just asked for the original price on the invoice so they could make a profit.
This time, Lao Xing offended everyone in the sales department. No one was willing to go out and do sales; they even said that Lao Xing should do the sales himself and suffer a bit.
They have no idea how much suffering they endure when running around doing business, their legs practically breaking from all the running.
Before we could even finish complaining, another task system came out.
It's as if they're waiting for them to stop doing business.
Let results speak for themselves. If no one is willing to work hard, then they'll have to meet their performance targets and be transferred to another position.
This is a ruthless move; even boiler rooms, foundries, material warehouses, maintenance, and infrastructure have positions available.
Everything starts with the workers.
For someone used to sitting in an office, doing manual labor is truly agonizing.
Many people who know Lao Xing's personality say this isn't like him. It's probably his son's idea; that kind of cunning thing is just plain naughty.
Xing Baohua has done this before in the fifth workshop. Didn't he send a kid from the material room to the boiler room to transport coal?
The methods are exactly the same; it's that bad boy.
Despite the chaos in the sales department, some smart people didn't get involved, while the troublemakers started causing trouble.
As the saying goes, if you transfer them to another job, they'll quit.
Actually, it was just something said in anger. Don't you think that if you quit right away, how could a large factory with seven or eight thousand people be short of staff?
As soon as the resignation procedures are completed, a replacement will be immediately provided.
No one is hiring anymore. Even though the machinery factory isn't doing well right now, people are still scrambling to hire as long as they're available.
Even if Xing Baohua and the machinery factory recruited together, they still couldn't recruit as many people as the machinery factory.
Many people don't care about the benefits; they care about the job security.
Even if the business isn't doing well, how can someone with a government job starve?
We've been through days where we only received grain but not thread before, so what's there to be afraid of? There will always be better times.
Xing Baohua was unaware that many people at the machinery factory were criticizing him. They said his father's advice was terrible and extremely malicious.
When Lao Xing took out the keyboard order that Xing Baohua had obtained, estimated the price, and then notified the electronics factory to sign a contract for production based on the price, how much they could produce in a month, and how much they wanted more.
Xing Baohua said this is a long-term order.
Just operate at full capacity.
Alright, Director Li waved his hand and ordered, "Get to the production line. Renovate Workshop 4 and put all our efforts into keyboard production."
The factory manager was concerned about the profit of two yuan per keyboard.
Even if we produce 10,000 keyboards a month, it still won't cover the wages of all the factory workers, but we'll keep going.
Currently, less than 25% of machinery factories are operating at full capacity, with most workers idle.
If we don't find these people something to do, they'll get into trouble if they're just sitting around doing nothing.
The machinery factory is also waiting for the Canton Fair, which is also an opportunity to attract orders.
This year, Director Li doesn't plan to go in person; he'll have Lao Xing lead the team.
Xing Baohua was reviewing several documents in his office when Ji Lanhe, the town's Party Secretary, arrived with several members of his team.
"Old Ji, what's up? I'm busy right now." Ji Lanhe was considered one of their own, and given his relationship with Yang Jing, he was practically a stranger. He told them to sit down and offered to pour themselves water and get cigarettes.
"It's nothing major, it's just that last year, the town collected over 900,000 yuan in taxes, right? I was thinking of starting something in town. When I didn't have money, I dreamed of building roads and houses when I had it. Now that I actually have money, it's not enough. I'm so worried!"
"You want me to give you advice? You've come to the wrong person. I'm nobody, how could I give you random advice? If I did, I'd be breaking the rules," Xing Baohua said with a smile.
"Don't you have a position as a member of the provincial association? Your opinions are very important to the local area. Otherwise, it would be a disservice to your status," Ji Lanhe said with a smile, offering his compliment.
That seems to make sense.
To this day, Xing Baohua still doesn't understand what this committee member can actually do. Besides, what right does he have to interfere in the affairs of the town?
Nine hundred thousand can't really do much. Even if you build a residential complex, it's only a few buildings.
Life isn't easy in town either. Construction is everywhere around here, but things are mostly quiet in town. Lack of money is the main problem, but can't they ask higher-ups for help?
If we follow the established pace, do you think the higher-ups will just stand by and not give it to us?
Ji Lanhe wanted to take the initiative, but unfortunately he didn't have enough money.
“Isn’t there a central crossroads in town?” Xing Baohua said.
They all nodded.
“Take out a corner and build a large hotel! Just build one the size of the city hotel,” Xing Baohua suggested.
"Nine hundred thousand yuan, that's only enough to build a large hall, right?"
Upon hearing this, Xing Baohua laughed and said, "It's not even enough for the demolition compensation, let alone the main hall. I'd be impressed if you could even manage to break ground."
Ji Lanhe asked with a wry smile, "If you don't even have money, what are you trying to achieve?"
"Listen to me, the people from the design institute are still at the factory. You can contact them later and have them take a look at how big the building should be and how much it will cost."
I have plenty of construction companies here! Definitely don't use the construction companies in your town. It would be best to use the top-tier construction companies in the city, or even better, subcontract to construction companies in other cities.
Banks have been contacting me about loans lately. Do you think I'm short of money? I'll connect you with them; I'll even be your guarantor. But there's a catch! As guarantor, you have to mortgage the hotel's property rights to me. Let's be upfront: if you really can't repay the loan, I'll cover the costs, and the hotel will be mine.
"I can't let you guys make money while I lose hundreds of millions!"
Ji Lanhe laughed and said, "Why do I feel like everything becomes simpler when it comes to you? A large hotel, without any funds, just by talking, it's done. Okay, let's do it."
