The Era of Hard Work

The most important festival of the year for the Chinese people is approaching, and the activities of social groups are also increasing. After the alumni association, Lu Dong participated in related activities organized by the University City Chamber of Commerce and the Qingzhao County Certificate Carrier. Give New Year benefits.

Most of these benefits are symbolic, such as desk calendars, wall calendars, blessing characters and posters, and more are used for publicity.

Living in this society of human relationships, human relationships are unavoidable. After the new year, the goods Lv Dong ordered from the food company were in place, and Qing Zhao Quannan ran back and forth.

Interacting with people is a delicate job, and to grasp the degree of it, many relationships have to be run by Lu Dong himself.

On the southern side of Quannan, Lu Dong basically dragged Du Xiaobing along.

"It's more tiring than running a company, and the headache is about to explode."

After driving out of the underground parking lot of Qiansheng Commercial Building, Du Xiaobing pulled down the collar of his suit and said to Lu Dong in the co-pilot, "Let's go back?"

Lu Dong leaned on the back of the chair, and it felt good not to have to drive: "Go back to the Guangmeiquannan branch. I have to return to the company in the afternoon. At least one of us must be there."

Du Xiaobing was quite emotional: "You send me, I send you."

Lu Dong joked casually: "This can stimulate domestic demand."

During the Chinese New Year, no matter how tight your daily life is, you are willing to spend more money.

The two returned to the university city, opened the trunk of the car, and it was full of things.

When I went to Quannan, the trunk was full, and when I came back, it was still full.

But it changed from a gift to a gift from another family.

Lu Dong called Su Xiaoshan, unloaded all the things, and temporarily put them in the warehouse.

Du Xiaobing checked the time and mentioned something: "I'll go to school."

Lu Dong asked, "Is it enough?"

"Enough." Du Xiaobing's official working relationship is in the Physical Education Institute, and he spends most of his time busy with company affairs: "For the Chinese New Year, just think about it."

Lu Dong knew very well that for Lao Du to be so free in the Physical Education Academy, the ability to show off from time to time was the key.

Du Xiaobing left the underground parking lot, Su Xiaoshan pushed a small trailer over to continue to pull goods, and asked: "Mr. Lu, our welfare has arrived, when will it be distributed?"

The employees in the delivery department were very curious, but they were too embarrassed to ask. Su Xiaoshan was old and knew Lu Dong well, so he asked whatever came to his mind.

In a blink of an eye, the new year is over, Lu Dong thought for a while, and said: "You will go upstairs to find Xu Man later, get a list of Chinese New Year benefits, go to various stores today and tomorrow to deliver the goods, and send all the corresponding benefits In the past, people from the company's headquarters would come directly to the warehouse to pick up in the afternoon, and you would call to inform them next to each other."

Su Xiaoshan stroked his big bald head and smiled: "Okay!"

Veteran employees like him who have been in the company for more than half a year, each receive 200 yuan in Chinese New Year benefits, which is not generally generous.

Most of the people who work in factories in the county, not to mention benefits during the Chinese New Year, have to burn incense if their wages are paid.

There are Chinese New Year benefits and double salary at the end of the year, what else do you want?

Where can I find such a good company?

Lu Dong went upstairs, just after entering the company, Zhu Jianrong, who works next door as a camera, came to visit and brought grain, oil, rice and noodles.

"Mr. Zhu, you are too polite." Lu Dong received Zhu Jianrong in the office: "We are neighbors, so we don't need to be so rude."

But Zhu Jianrong said: "Mr. Lu, it's the Chinese New Year. It's time to think about it. This is also to help me solve the inventory."

Only then did Lu Dong remember that in order to cope with the possible end of the world in the new millennium, Zhu Jianrong purchased and stockpiled a large amount of daily necessities.

The visitor chatted for a while, and when Zhu Jianrong was leaving, Lu Dong asked Xue Tian to take some things from the conference room and helped deliver them to Zhu Jianrong's company.

Xue Tian came back from the company next door and went to the office to look for Lu Dong: "Mr. Lu, you said a few days ago that the Chinese New Year holiday time will be announced today..."

As the Chinese New Year is approaching, people's hearts cannot be as stable as usual. Many people, especially those from other places, want to go home early for the Chinese New Year.

In fact, after the new year, the business of each store has gradually become deserted.

Lu Dong thought about it for a while, and said, "In this way, the 27th day of the twelfth lunar month will be a unified holiday, and we will officially go to work on the 10th day of the first month after the new year. Except for a few stores, the rest will open for business from the 11th day of the first month."

He emphatically said: "The Burger King train station is closed on the 30th day of the first day, the second day, the third day, the third day and the fourth day. Employees who are willing to earn more money to work will get double salary from the fourth day to the seventh day."

This extra salary is not worth mentioning compared to the operating income of the railway station during the Spring Festival travel season.

This is also in line with the provisions of the Labor Law.

Xue Tian memorized them all.

Lu Dong said again: "As for the specific personnel and duty, you can directly discuss with Fu Zhaoxia."

Xue Tian said: "Okay."

After lunch, Zhang Mingyu from Ginza visited first to send Zhang Mingyu away, and Fan Yunming from Guangmei Electric came over specially.

When Fan Yunming came to University City, he not only paid a special return visit to Lu's Catering Company, but also made a preliminary investigation in University City to see how long it would take for Guangmei Electric to enter this market.

What Guangmei Electric needs are settled residents with stable income. In the case that mobile phones and computers are still personal high-end consumer goods, it is difficult for university towns to become a direct customer group.

Nowadays, college students who can be equipped with computers and mobile phones belong to the minority among the minority.

Lu Dong specially accompanied Fan Yunming around the Innovation Port of the Provincial University, the Business Center of the University City, and the Convention and Exhibition Center to the south, which is also the current commercial gathering point of the University City.

As for the central intersection with the largest passenger flow, Guangmei Electric does not need to consider it. First, the shops are generally small, and second, there are no vacant shops to rent.

Qingzhao is the one with the best economic conditions among all the counties in Quannan. If Guangmei Electric wants to enter the county-level market in Quannan, it will definitely give priority to Qingzhao.

Because most of Qingzhao's public enterprises either went bankrupt, or were restructured, or sold, Qingzhao's life was not easy on the whole.

However, the total GDP of Qingzhao is still very high. In the 1999 list of the top 100 counties published by many media, Qingzhao ranked in the 70th place, which is five or six places higher than in 1999.

When the economy is in command, it is natural to use GDP as the hero.

This is also an important measure for many companies to examine a market.

Lu Dong was also considering counties around Quannan, such as Beihe. He had visited Beihe County with Fang Yan a while ago, and he had a rough impression.

In the evening, the Management Committee of the University City held a meeting, and convened a meeting of the heads of various units and enterprises, emphasizing the safety issues during the Chinese New Year.

Matters such as fire prevention and theft prevention cannot be overemphasized.

After the meeting, Lu Dong and Lu Chun went out of the small auditorium together.

"Are you sure second brother won't come back this year?" Lu Dong asked as he walked.

Lu Chun nodded lightly: "It is said that I will go out for training, and I won't be back. Maybe I will come back next summer."

Lu Dong said, "It's really hard work."

Lu Chun smiled: "There is no way for a special unit. If you choose this path, you have to bear the responsibility." He went to Lu Dong's company and reminded: "For the first few days of the Chinese New Year, the door must be locked at night. Take everything away, don't stay in the company."

Lu Dong understood: "A petty theft also wants to have a good year."

When the two came to the parking lot, Lu Chun opened the car door: "I'm going first, I have to work the night shift at night."

Lu Dong said: "What do you need for the New Year over there, if you don't have time to buy it, call me, don't worry, I will pay with my sister-in-law."

Lu Chun replied, "I'll ask your sister-in-law."

The more ordinary people's holidays are, the busier Lu Chun's business is, and Fang Yan has a lot of things to do, and the two of them will probably be busy until New Year's Eve.

When Lu Dong bought new year's goods, he deliberately bought two copies at a time, and his uncle also gave one to him.

…………

Qingzhao County, a commercial street.

As soon as the new year is over, many employees in the store are thinking about when the company will issue new year benefits. Although the standard of benefits has been lowered a long time ago, they are always a little uneasy if they haven't got the things in their hands.

Many people have had a hard time this year, and factories and sub-units can't even pay their wages, and it's everywhere.

It wasn't until the afternoon when the big bald head of the delivery came over with a batch of goods in person and sent them to the small warehouse of the store, that everyone's hearts were truly settled down.

In winter, there is no nightlife in the small county, and the customers leave early. Before 7:30, there is no one in the store.

The store manager, Miao Yu, asked the clerk to pull down the roller shutters, and when the clerk finished cleaning, let someone come over to collect the benefits.

"There are a lot of things." Miao Yu took a folder, each of them got a copy, and asked each person to sign the corresponding form: "You can't take it in one trip, so take a few more trips."

The employees are all happy, and it is always good to receive benefits other than salary.

"The company is really good, it's so authentic." A little girl was holding a big gift box and said, "My dad's unit didn't pay the salary until August last year. I don’t know what happened to the year.”

A man who made fried food in the kitchen echoed: "My family is similar. My dad works in a coal mine. It is said that since the coal mine was called a private contract, the benefits have been very good. The boss just suppresses the wages and does not pay..."

Another person answered: "It's also a private boss. Compared with Mr. Lu, there is a big gap."

During off-duty hours, as long as the words are not excessive, the store manager Miao Yu will not forbid the employees to gossip.

The staff at the store received the items and signed them, but they didn't leave for a while, and Miao Yu specifically said the holiday time.

Finally, she said: "The wages for January have been sent to your bank card. You should check it out when you have time. The details will arrive tomorrow. According to our standard this month, your basic wages are double wages."

The employees were even happier. Miao Yu announced that after get off work, they left the store talking and laughing one by one, and went home with their things.

Miao Yu carried a gift box, as usual, was the last one to leave the store, pulled down the shutter door and locked it, put on a down jacket and hat, and went to push Mulan's motorcycle.

The gift box was placed on Mulan's pedal, and the electric button was pressed to start the fire. Just as Miao Yu was about to leave, a woman of similar age came from the opposite sidewalk.

"Miao Yu!" The woman who came over was wearing a beautiful dress, carrying a translucent plastic bag, which seemed to contain some cosmetics, walking towards the road, and beckoning to Miao Yu: "Wait for me , don't go yet!"

She walked over quickly and said with a smile: "We haven't seen each other for a long time, can we find a place to talk for a while?"
