Ants exploded, I opened a power plant to supply power to the world

Chapter 149 Chapter 148 Let Mom's Supermarket Open in the Factory Area

After the message was sent, the group chat in Wang Qiutong's customer service center exploded.

Without pictures, there is no truth. What Wang Qiutong sent out were all videos, and she, like everyone else, was a grassroots customer service representative. There was no such thing as preferential treatment.

In other words, the treatment shown in the video is the treatment received by all of them.

The doubts of the girls who were previously worried about the environment at the Second Factory were now gone.

Who wouldn’t like to work in such an environment? Besides, the dormitories are much better than those in college.

Finally, there is the cafeteria. Who wouldn’t be confused by the wide variety of food and fresh fruits?
"Oh my god! Is this the factory cafeteria? Isn't this a buffet restaurant in the city? This looks delicious!"

"Envy! Why am I not in the first batch? This looks much more delicious than the food at home."

"There are so many braised chicken, Chinese stir-fried dishes, and barbecued rice. I don't know how much weight I will gain if I move there and stay there for half a year."

"It's strange that everyone is paying attention to food? Am I the only one who noticed the spacious office? Our workstations are much larger than before."

……

The group was chatting lively at this moment. Wang Qiutong put down her phone with satisfaction and picked up the soup spoon to take a sip.

Just now someone said that the chef who made the soup at the soup buffet was from Guangdong Province, but Wang Qiutong didn't believe it. But after taking a bite, she believed it.

What are the soups usually served in other restaurants or canteens? Simple seaweed egg drop soup or pickled cabbage soup.

If the cafeteria had an extra dish of scrambled eggs with tomatoes the night before, the water used to wash the pot could be turned into egg drop soup the next day.

What is the soup in the canteen of Zhetong Power Plant No. 2? It is a real chicken soup. It is not the taste of technology and hard work, but the fresh and fragrant taste of authentic local chicken.

Wang Qiutong was not wrong about this. The hens used to make soup in the canteen were all free-range chickens raised by villagers in nearby villages, and each one was not cheap.

Wang Qiutong was very satisfied with the meal. It would be strange if anyone didn’t want to come to such a Second Factory.

……

The next day, the remaining employees of the headquarters customer service center continued to move, and Lin Zhe also came to Huixi Town.

It has been more than a week since the mobile power supply vehicle was used to provide power. After seeing it in person this time, Lin Zhe was very satisfied.

I have to say that this is indeed convenient. It can provide stable power supply to the town every day for more than a week, and there have been no errors in various data indicators.

After looking around outside the power supply vehicle, Lin Zhe picked up the phone and called Yang Wenjun. If there was no problem with the vehicle, he should ask their factory to produce a few more as soon as possible.

……

After coming out of Huixi Town, Lin Zhe went to the second factory. Today, all the girls from the customer service center had moved in, so he went to take a look too.

After arriving at the second factory, Lin Zhe went to the brand new customer service center.

The building was originally reserved as an office building and has been vacant since it was built. The factory sent cleaning ladies to work overtime to clean it up a few days ago.

Then the office equipment was installed, and now the customer service girls who came yesterday have already started working.

I walked into the building and took a look. The layout was quite good, at least much better than the customer service center at the headquarters.

Customer Service Office Area 3. After taking a look at the sign at the door, Lin Zhe pushed the door open and walked in.

As soon as they entered, the staff members who were not answering the phone immediately stood up and said excitedly, "Hello, Mr. Lin."

Hearing these delicate cries, Lin Zhe also smiled.

"How is it? Are you used to it?"

When Wang Qiutong heard this, her workstation was right in front of Lin Zhe. She blushed a little because she was too close to him.

"Thank you, Mr. Lin. This place is much better than the previous office. Of course, I didn't mean to say that it was bad before."

After saying that, Wang Qiutong stuck out her tongue mischievously, and Lin Zhe nodded when he saw it.

Then he walked out after taking a look inside.

……

"How many employees do we have in Factory 2 now?"

After hearing Lin Zhe's question, Qi Zeyu immediately gave his answer.

As the chief engineer and actual person in charge of the second factory, Qi Zeyu is very concerned about his work and can say it without any confirmation from the list.

"Boss Lin, currently our factory has 892 people including various types of power workers, security, cleaning, engineers, finance, and human resources. The customer service center has moved here and there are 123 people in total. So the total number of employees in the factory has reached 1,015."

The number of people has exceeded a thousand, which is not a small number. With so many people in a factory, it would take a whole truck to transport the vegetables every day.

Other supporting facilities must also keep up. The billiard room and table tennis room that I planned earlier are already on the way.

"We have more employees, so their spare time needs to be enriched. I see that the sports field in our factory is quite large. I will buy some table tennis rackets and badminton rackets so that the employees can exercise after work."

Listening to Lin Zhe's arrangements, Qi Zeyu nodded seriously.

……

That afternoon at Lin Zhe's house, he came back late so he was naturally late for dinner.

While eating, Jiang Lan also talked about the stupid drinking incident between Lin Zhe and his uncle.

"Xiaozhe, your uncle's craftsmanship is beyond reproach. The Hutu wine has been selling well these past few days. People who have drunk it say it's good. They also say that this price is top-notch in terms of cost-effectiveness."

After hearing this, Lin Zhe nodded without surprise. Since it has been recognized by the market, he can just ask his uncle to increase the scale of production.

The output of several thousand kilograms is really not something I can show off, so I just sell it in my own small supermarket.

But since the matter was brought up, Lin Zhe also expressed his thoughts.

"Mom, didn't my second factory just move its customer service center there recently? The number of employees in the factory has exceeded 1,000, and the daily expenses for so many people are not small. I was thinking why don't you just go over and open a factory supermarket."

At the second plant in Zhetong Power Development Zone, employees have to ride a bicycle for more than ten minutes to the nearest village to buy anything. The goods in the village store are also very scarce, with only some daily necessities. Sometimes when someone wants to drink a better drink, there is nothing for sale.

Therefore, opening a supermarket in the factory is really a good choice. It keeps the wealth within the family. My family runs the supermarket and I know the source of goods clearly. It is perfect.

After hearing what Lin Zhe said, Jiang Lan also showed a surprised expression, and then smiled happily.

"Really? Xiaozhe, your factory has thousands of employees. This number of people is almost the same as that of ordinary primary and junior high schools. Let's not talk about those big cities. In Lincheng, there is a junior high school with a thousand students. How much do you think the bidding for the canteen can sell for?"

"Several hundred thousand a year without bargaining, and that doesn't even include the rent for the school. Also, if you don't have any connection with the school, you have no way to pay. With so many people opening a small supermarket, it's like a monopoly, so you must be making a lot of money."

Jiang Lan's words were not an exaggeration at all, and might even be a little understated.

Especially for those closed schools, campus supermarkets are definitely a sure-win business. Although their factories are not closed, with so many people wanting to buy things, they can still make a lot of money.

At that time, we only need to hire two salesmen to open the store in the factory, and then replenish the stock every few days.

The place in the factory belongs to her son. Jiang Lan still doesn't believe that Lin Zhe can take her money. It means she can just lie down and count the money every month.

Seeing his mother's excited and happy face, Lin Zhe smiled and nodded.

"That will definitely make some money. As your son, I won't charge you any fees. I just ask that the products you sell are not more expensive than those sold outside, so that the employees won't complain."

After Lin Zhe said this, Jiang Lan glared at Lin Zhe.

"What are you talking about? Is your mother that kind of person? Even if she wants to make money by cheating her conscience, she should still consider you. You can't let your employees hate you because of me."

"Also, don't say that I sell the same things at a higher price than other places. I really need to change the price so that the things I sell are cheaper than other places, so that your Zhetong employees can enjoy convenience while still remembering our kindness."

Jiang Lan’s idea was not wrong, and Lin Zhe also supported it. It was not surprising that his mother took such action.

Anyway, if the price is lowered a little, it is cheaper than outside, who dares to say anything? And small profits but quick turnover is also good.

"Okay, Mom, let's settle this. You can recruit people based on the situation. I'll ask the Second Factory to provide dormitories for the people you recruit. I've also thought of a location for the supermarket. It's near the dormitory building and the cafeteria."

"Okay, I'll contact the supplier to purchase the goods in the next two days. Give me a pass to your second factory and I'll have someone deliver the goods to you and keep them there for now."

Now my mother had no appetite to eat. She ate in a few bites and went to make a phone call.

I guess she is contacting suppliers or something, and as for the cashiers, I will let my mother recruit and manage them herself, so that she can experience the feeling of being a boss.

Mom was happy, and Lao Lin was also smiling and joking.

"Xiaozhe, you've found a good way for your mother to make money, why don't you find one for your father? Let your father open an Internet cafe or a billiard room in your second factory."

"Dad, we do have an Internet cafe and billiard room in our factory now, but the billiard room is free for employees to use, and the Internet cafe is a welfare service with a charge of two yuan per hour. You are really late for that."

Old Lin was just joking originally, but he said it because he really didn't expect Lin Zhe to actually do this.

"I mean it's late, but Xiaozhe, I have to remind you that your Internet cafe should not let employees stay up all night online and affect their work status the next day."

Lin Zhe had already considered this. The Internet cafe in the factory is open to all employees, but if the employees are not on break the next day, they cannot go online after 10 o'clock. This is also a restriction.

And the two yuan internet fee is also one of the restrictions, otherwise I really wouldn’t value this little money.

With this threshold, everyone will be more restrained. I guess the free Internet cafes will be full every day. Even if you don't use the Internet, you have to occupy a computer to watch a movie or something.

……

In Binhai City, Zhang Chao has been very busy recently.

But compared to before, although he was very tired, it was worth it. After joining Zhetong Electric Power, he at least saw hope. Moreover, Lin Zhe really treated him well, and he also experienced the high welfare of Zhetong Electric Power.

Before Lin Zhe returned to Lincheng, he found an office location in Binhai, renting a larger office in an office building.

Currently, the only staff of Zhetong Electric Power in Binhai are Zhang Chao and several of his marketing department staff members recruited by him.

My work during this period was all about running business, contacting various channels for advertising, and then being ready for the expansion of Zhetong Electric Power Group in Binhai.

After all, if you want everyone to become users of Zhetong Electric Power, you must first let everyone know about Zhetong Electric Power, so advertising is essential.

Including the Binhai City subway, and even the high-speed rail station and airport, these places with dense traffic are Zhang Chao and his team's targets and must be negotiated in advance.

Moreover, Zhang Chao was very excited when doing this, because Lin Zhe was very generous in advertising and marketing.

After entering the industry for a few years, I have never been responsible for marketing at the tens of millions level, let alone marketing at the millions or hundreds of thousands level.

Now is also the opportunity to prove himself. Not only does he want to make the money worthwhile, but he also wants to let his brother Lin Zhe know that he made the right choice by choosing Zhang Chao!
……

On the other hand, a supermarket is being built at the Second Factory these days, right between the canteen and the dormitory building.

There were actually quite a few vacant rooms, but they were either in the office building or in the dormitory, which made Lin Zhe feel uneasy.

So we just built one with colored steel, similar to a prefabricated house, and then installed a large air conditioner inside and then laid the floor. It's the same thing anyway. The supermarket warehouse is also built with colored steel.

Although she is my mother, this factory supermarket does not nominally belong to the Zhetong Electric Power Group, so the warehouse has to be separated.

In addition, the needs of new employees are also met as much as possible.

For example, girls are keen on shopping and often order a lot of express deliveries online. The volume of express deliveries brought by more than one hundred girls in their customer service center directly doubles the number of express deliveries.

The countryside is not like the city, and it is impossible to deliver goods to your door. All the goods are delivered at the post stations in the town. There are no stations in the villages because there are few people.

But there are so many people in these two factories now that it is very difficult for them to pick up the express deliveries and they have to go to the town.

So after this problem was reported, Lin Zhe immediately asked someone to follow up and directly contacted several regional managers of express delivery companies.

Then all express parcels with the delivery address of Zhetong Electric Power Plant No. 2 will be sent directly to the factory area. A courier pick-up point will be set up near the cafeteria, and everyone can just pick up their own courier.

Since we are all colleagues, there is no need to worry about someone deliberately stealing it. This is much more convenient.

Lin Zhe was very happy to see that the factory was getting better and better, and then something even happier happened.

News came from Zhang Chao that the advertising cooperation at Binhai Railway Station and Airport had finally been negotiated, which meant that Zhetong Electric Power would soon enter the vision of Binhai people.
