Chapter 175: Tear Down and Rebuild
These people are Huang Tingting's trusted subordinates. They know that the team leader will not cheat them, so they are very attentive when learning.
Huang Yuxiu was free, but she couldn't sit still. She went to the Lihua Street store in the morning and helped Su Dapeng make [Dezhou Braised Chicken] in the afternoon.
These four young people have certain experience. After all, they have been making [Pepper Chicken] for such a long time. Although the production process is different, the principle is the same.
Three days later.
They can operate on their own, and their level is not worse than Su Dapeng and Wang Yuxiu.
So Du Shaojie divided them into two groups, two people in a group, one group followed Wang Yuxiu, and the other group followed Su Dapeng, gradually freeing Wang Yuxiu and Su Dapeng.
"Shaojie, what do you mean?"
Su Dapeng was a little confused and asked Huang Tingting, but Huang Tingting didn't say anything.
Finally, he couldn't help it, so he ran over to ask Du Shaojie.
It's a good thing to have four more helpers all of a sudden, but it's not justified, and he was worried.
"I was just thinking about this, sit down."
Du Shaojie was reading in the room, and he put the book down when he saw Su Dapeng.
"They are easy to use, much better than hiring people from outside. Dapeng, haven't you always wanted to expand? Now there are people specializing in production, you go out and look around, and find two more suitable storefronts."
"Ah? Shaojie, you didn't lie to me, did you? If you really decide to open two more stores, I will go find a store right away, and I will pay for the investment, and the distribution plan will not change."
Su Dapeng stood up from the chair at once, blood rushed to his head, and his face flushed with excitement.
He had long been dissatisfied with two stores, but Du Shaojie had always disagreed with expansion, and he had no choice.
Now he finally waited for the day of expansion.
"Well, you can do it. Also find two reliable salesmen. It's impossible for you and my mother to guard the two new stores, right?"
Du Shaojie smiled and shook his head. He felt that if he didn't say this, Su Dapeng would definitely do it.
The other party can treat his targets as free labor, so what can't he do to save costs.
"I know, I'll do it all at once. By the way, the four of them are paid at the snack bar, but they work for us. This... is not good, right?"
Su Dapeng certainly hoped to have free labor, but he didn't want to take advantage of Du Shaojie, so he raised an objection to him in person.
"You wish! Of course, their wages are borne by ourselves. The wages and bonuses from the snack bar just offset my contract fee."
Du Shaojie felt that the bureau might send people to the snack bar in the future. He was preparing for a rainy day, which not only solved the problem of surplus personnel in the snack bar, but also solved the problem of expansion on his side.
It is not a problem to support eight people in four stores, Su Dapeng and Wang Yuxiu are not counted, and they don't receive wages.
Du Shaojie then discussed with Su Dapeng and decided to give them a monthly salary of 60 yuan each, and bonuses are calculated separately.
The salary is much higher than that paid by the snack bar, and Du Shaojie also specifically told them not to spread it. If you don't want to work anymore, you can say hello in advance. There are probably quite a few people in Huang Tingting's team who are willing to come.
The operation and management of the four stores are naturally in the charge of Su Dapeng and Wang Yuxiu. He doesn't have the leisure to do everything himself.
Time flies.
[Du's Dezhou Braised Chicken] Medical College Store and Northwest Road Store opened one after another, and business is still booming.
During this period, Feng Qingsong came to Du Shaojie's private kitchen once.
This time, Liu Ying and others entertained Feng Qingsong to congratulate him on his further progress. That night, everyone drank a lot of wine and the atmosphere was particularly good.
Feng Qingsong was the last one to leave. Before leaving, he accidentally revealed a piece of news to Du Shaojie that the Chunfengxiang area was about to implement a "water supply and drainage" renovation project.
"Master Du, after the project started, you have been digging everywhere here. I'm afraid you can't come for a while. What a pity!"
Du Shaojie sent Feng Qingsong to the car and kept thinking about it at night.
From the next day, he wandered around and finally saw a place near the intersection of Chunfengxiang. This was originally the cafeteria of the medical school. Later, the medical school moved away, but the cafeteria remained.
The cafeteria and the surrounding area are a separate yard, which is temporarily idle. A new family compound was built on the original site of the medical school, so the cafeteria was separated by a wall.
Du Shaojie asked around and found out that the cafeteria and the yard now belong to the Health Bureau.
He thought of Liu Ying and made a special trip to find her.
"Master Du, the cafeteria and its land belong to our unit. Do you have any ideas?"
Liu Ying met Du Shaojie in the office with a good attitude and personally made him a cup of tea.
"Can the cafeteria be sold?"
"Not at the moment!"
"What if I rent it?"
"That's fine. The canteen has been idle for more than half a year. If you want to rent it, you can do it right away. You just need to pay a little rent. After all, it's hard to rent it out."
This kind of thing is insignificant in Liu Ying's eyes.
She still gave Du Shaojie face, and then personally called the person in charge of this area to the office.
Du Shaojie and the other party quickly reached an agreement and signed a five-year lease agreement at a price of 100 yuan per month.
Then he found Su Dapeng and asked him to find someone to renovate the medical school canteen, and put the [Dezhou Braised Chicken] here in the future.
The kitchen at home is obviously no longer suitable. Although the medical school canteen is not facing the main street, the alley at the door is still spacious, and it is very convenient to get in and out of the car. It is only about 30 meters away from the main road.
The canteen kitchen does not need to make a big move. It can be used after cleaning it up and adding some equipment.
It is a large yard. There is a row of bungalows against the east wall. It was originally the dormitory for the canteen staff. The ground of the yard has been hardened, and only the damaged parts need to be renovated.
It didn't take a few days to finish this work, and the canteen of the medical school was put into use soon.
"Shaojie, it's better here. It has complete water supply and drainage, which is very convenient. However, the rent of 100 yuan per month, plus the water and electricity bills, is another considerable expense."
Su Dapeng was very satisfied with the canteen of the medical school, but he always felt sorry for money and always felt that such a large place could not be fully utilized, which was a waste.
Du Shaojie didn't care. Many things would be gradually standardized with the passage of time. How could food processing be done in residential buildings all the time?
He had more ideas later, but time was too short and he needed to do it step by step.
In late April.
The "water supply and drainage" renovation project of Chunfeng Lane officially kicked off, which also brought a lot of trouble to everyone.
The first thing that the road excavation affected was travel, and the second was dust flying. Don't think about keeping your house clean for the next two months. Finally, individuals have to pay a proper amount of money for the pipeline to enter the household. Some people complained, but it did not affect the overall situation.
Xiaoya was about to take the high school entrance examination, so Wang Yuxiu and her daughter moved back to the new house to live. She doesn't need to make [Dezhou Braised Chicken] herself now, and each store has a salesperson, so she has much more free time than before.
Du Shaojie's "private kitchen" has temporarily stopped operating. The canteen of the medical school is obviously not suitable. The conditions are not good and the privacy is not good. People will definitely not come.
Taking advantage of this gap, he decided to completely renovate his old house and the yard next door.
Du Shaojie took the time to go to the Municipal First Construction and found Ma Zijian, the general manager of the Municipal First Construction.
Since he moved out of Feng Qingsong, the other party's attitude was very enthusiastic, not as cold as when he first entered the door.
"Master Du, the leader has greeted me. If you have any needs, just tell me. I will do my best."
"Manager Ma, I'm sorry to bother you with such a small job. It's like this, I have two yards."
Du Shaojie then stated his needs. The house in the small yard, including the kitchen, wall, etc., needs to be demolished and rebuilt.
The building adopts brick-concrete structure. The kitchen is built according to the standards of professional kitchens. A bathroom is built in the corner of the yard. The ground of the yard is paved with red bricks and decorated with green plants, grape racks, stone tables and benches.
The main building of the old house has five rooms, which reflects the comfort of living.
The main building of the yard next door has three large rooms, and the priority is the dining environment, which should look high-end.
"It's a small matter, leave it to me, and I will guarantee the completion within a month. Isn't there a project in Chunfeng Lane? I will ask someone to negotiate. You don't have to worry about the pipeline entering the house. I will help you with it."
Ma Zijian agreed and immediately asked people to go to the site for inspection.
For the city's first construction, this is really a trivial job. If Feng Qingsong hadn't said hello, they would not have taken it at all.
In an ordinary yard, it would cost five or six hundred yuan to build a few brick houses and some ancillary facilities. But according to Du Shaojie's requirements, 2,000 yuan may not be enough.
"Thank you, Manager Ma. Thank you so much."
Du Shaojie immediately took people to survey the site. The budget for the two courtyards was set at 4,000 yuan. The Municipal First Construction Company arranged people to enter the site for construction soon.
Since the main road of Chunfeng Lane has been excavated, transportation is a little troublesome. It has to go through the small alley behind the courtyard. Large trucks cannot enter, and the transportation can only be carried out by tractors first, and then loaded.
However, these things have nothing to do with Du Shaojie. The project has been contracted out, and it is enough to take a look from time to time.
He sometimes stays in the cafeteria of the medical school, and he also goes to the snack bar almost every day. Unknowingly, the number of unemployed young people in the snack bar has increased to 54. Together with himself, Dong Jun, Huang Tingting, and Xiao Jianjun, the total number of employees has reached 58.
"Manager Du, our snack bar is so small. Even if we work in two shifts, there are too many people. Our wage cost pressure is very high."
Dong Jun finally couldn't help but come to Du Shaojie. He was very emotional, of course, against some practices of the bureau.
The monthly salary plus bonuses of 58 people is more than 4,000 yuan, nearly 5,000 yuan, which eats up a considerable part of the profit. This also leads to the fact that the monthly net profit is only about 18,000 yuan, less than 20,000 yuan.
"It's right that the cost pressure is high. Why do you need so much profit? Do you think I can really take it all peacefully? In this way, I will transfer two more people from Huang Tingting's team to go out for study, so that you won't be upset when there are too many people."
Du Shaojie smiled and waved his hand, signaling the other party to be patient.
He revealed a little bit of his thoughts, and Dong Jun immediately understood.
