You can actually ask Party Secretary Xiao Zhu about this matter, and her answer will definitely be more down-to-earth.
But Xiao Zhu Huimin, the branch secretary, has done a good job, but Boss Chang has a good handle on business and people's hearts. Song Tan also happened to think of it, so he asked about it.
Boss Chang thought about this question seriously for a while. After a while, he spoke first: "I have been to your place and stayed there several times. The overall atmosphere in the village is quite good in my opinion. And
Because in mountainous areas, those clans don’t really care about ancestral halls, right?”
Song Tan nodded.
Not only does it not care, it can be said that it is quite people-oriented.
Just by looking at the meaning of burning paper during the Qingming Festival at home, you will know that in other places, the traditional way of doing things is to live and die. They always focus on the present - of course, what should be done is still done, such as inviting Taoist priests to the elderly when they die.
In addition, despite the fact that there are a few unfilial sons in the village, in terms of the overall atmosphere, Shili Baxiang is really pretty good. As for clan ancestral halls and the like... there is no such thing.
Song Tan explained: "Many people in our village fled during the famine and floods. Their ancestral home is not here, their surnames are all different, and their clans are not established."
"Back then, the older generation only thought about people's survival. Gradually, there weren't so many rules."
The benefits are quite good, at least the village is not as patriarchal as elsewhere... Of course, it's all in comparison.
For example, Aunt Lianhua, if she gets divorced, it will still be difficult to apply for a homestead before Party Secretary Xiao Zhu comes.
Boss Chang nodded: "Look at some coastal cities. After they made a fortune doing business there, they either built ancestral halls or paid homage to their ancestors when they returned home. This is also a way to give back to the hometown and connect with the countryside."
"But I guess you don't like these vain things... It's not easy to do many charitable undertakings nowadays, such as building roads. If you donate roads yourself, if the government refuses to recognize them, you may be fined.
"
"There is also transportation... The transportation there is inconvenient. There is only one bus to every village every day. It would also be a good thing to donate two cars to open a route to the town... Then this involves another thing, in case of traffic
If there is an accident, will people come to trouble you?"
"Also, if you drive private cars in the village, will your business be affected?"
Boss Chang analyzed them one by one slowly, while Qiao Qiao and Lu Chuan listened carefully. The former was exploring ideas, while the latter could not understand many parts, but it did not prevent them from writing them down first.
It’s just that the more you analyze, the harder it gets.
Because it’s really hard to do work in the village! If you don’t pay attention, it’s easy to become a stranger inside and outside.
Boss Chang now understands that Song Tan has had the money for a while, but why he hasn't started taking action yet - he really can't take action!
There are even some things that Party Secretary Xiao Zhu can do freely with the support of the government, but she cannot.
He thought about it for a long time, and finally he could only say: "You may only have ten or twenty million in your pocket now, so you can't do much. It's better to put this plan aside first."
"If I want to give back to my hometown, the safest thing I can think of is to give everyone a higher salary - but you must not do this just when you go back. You have to discuss it with your Party Secretary Zhu!"
Boss Chang has his own business experience.
"Just like the employees in my hotel, they are very busy right now, but even the most ordinary and least diligent waiter can earn more than 5,000 a month."
"But the basic salary is only 3,000."
"First of all, compared with a dead salary of 5,000 yuan and a base salary of 3,000 yuan plus a bonus of 2,000 yuan, the subjective initiative is different."
"Secondly, if someone with a basic salary of RMB 3,000 does not do well and has her bonus deducted, she will feel sad but she will usually work harder. But if she has to deduct a salary of RMB 5,000, it will most likely be difficult for the other party to accept it."
"This is really not about us capitalists squeezing people, but that human resources management should be done in a certain way. Other villages give you 200 yuan a day, and you pay 300. If you work a few more days, not only other villages will
I'm muttering to you, maybe the villagers here who get a salary of 300 will complain that you took advantage of them, or why they won't give you a little more?"
"Of course, it's not impossible to give, but the extra money is best in the form of bonuses."
Song Tan understands these principles.
In fact, Wu Lan and Song Sancheng are the ones who know best. They may not be able to sum it up in words, but they have their own wisdom in life.
Boss Chang finished his instructions and said: "Anyway, I can't give you any good ideas at the moment. I'll go back and ask those customers who made their fortune in the early years."
Song Tan nodded. Boss Chang originally wanted to linger for a while, but seeing the three of them eating quietly, he reluctantly said goodbye.
As soon as he left, Lu Chuan laughed first: "I was too superficial before, and I was afraid that you would not be willing to spend money or enjoy life. It was obviously very hard before."
It's really hard.
Wu Lan and Song Sancheng have worked hard all their lives, Qiao Qiao's childhood was missing, Song Tan's precocious puberty and poor adolescence, and even being looked down upon when going to school and serving food...
He has experienced all this and knows what it feels like when you have no money, even your dignity is cheap.
But now when I heard Song Tan ask this question, I realized that it was me who was superficial.
Song Tan doesn't think so: "Spending or not is everyone's living habit. The reason why I am willing to spend money is because I don't have that high desire to spend money and I can make money. What's more, you are rich enough."
"Besides, I'm just asking, and it hasn't been spent yet. After all, you continue to donate every year."
The smile on Lu Chuan's lips deepened, and the emotion in his eyes was soft, as if gentle starlight could drip down. Qiao Qiao stared blankly at the two of them, suddenly a little stunned.
After a while he asked: "Do you want to donate to the village? Do I want to donate too?"
"No need." Song Tanlisuo refused: "If you are not sick or in trouble, why don't you donate? Not to mention that many people in the village bullied you when you were young, so you won't donate."
"Besides, your salary is not high."
"Oh." Qiao Qiao also nodded seriously: "It's really hard for me to make money!"
As soon as he said this, Lu Chuan and Song Tan both laughed and quickly picked up another eggplant box for him: "Yes, it's very hard! Eat more!"
And Qiao Qiao also narrowed her eyes happily: "Sister, this fried eggplant is also made into a sweet and sour version, which is also delicious! I will make it for you when I go back!"
Song Tan thanked Bu Min: "I don't like sweet and sour dishes. When I get back to eating beef, you can try stewed beef with dried eggplant from last year!"
"By the way, Qiaoqiao, ask your new friends which hotel they are staying in? If you are on your way, you can come with us when you go back."
If you can get to the zoo early in the morning, most of the time you can book a hotel nearby.
