On May 13, Xia Zekai met Zhang Xu, who was driving an old Jetta, at the entrance of the Jingtong Food Factory.
After much thought, Xia Zekai decided to formally register the company. He didn't want to go into trouble, so he had no choice but to find an agent.
"Xiao Zhang, I'll leave this to you. Let's have a drink together after we're done." Xia Zekai shook hands with Zhang Xu and expressed his thanks in advance.
Zhang Xu also responded with a smile: "Brother Xia, don't worry, I won't let you down."
"Brother Xia, to be honest, your development is so fast, I don't even know what to say!" Zhang Xu said with admiration on his face.
He still remembers the first time he met Xia Zekai. Strictly speaking, this was his first client, and he left a deep impression.
At that time, Xia Zekai took a taxi to their Qianhui Investment Consulting Company and asked him to apply for a personal business license, tax registration certificate, health license, health certificate, etc.
During this period, he and Xia Zekai kept in contact on and off, and Xia Zekai gave him several services to apply for "health certificates" on his behalf.
But even so, I never expected that a person who was still earning some living expenses in that garage shop two months ago would not only have a two-story shop two months later, but also a production area of more than 600 square meters.
workshop.
Although they are all rented, it is still a matter of skill, and the opportunities in life are so magical.
Xia Zekai waved his hand: "Just so so!"
"Third in the world, haha!" Zhang Xu picked up one of the most popular words at the moment and burst out laughing.
In the workshop, Meng Jie led people from the oven manufacturer to install equipment. These people were much more professional than the people Xia Zekai found at the Dazhang labor market last time.
How to wire the wiring to make it safer, where to place the oven for better heat dissipation, which can extend the service life of the equipment, and make it more convenient for others to operate, etc.
Xia Zekai greeted her, took Zhang Xu into his office, poured him a glass of water, and then took out a stack of paper information and placed it in front of Zhang Xu: "This is the information you asked me to prepare in advance.
, copy, you can see what’s missing and I’ll give it to you.”
Zhang Xu didn't have time to drink water, so he quickly read it again. After flipping through it, he said, "Brother Xia, everything is complete. In this case, I won't waste time and will finish it for you as soon as possible."
After saying that, he stood up and was about to leave. Xia Zekai stopped him: "Xiao Zhang, you came to my place and left without even drinking a glass of water... I also want to treat you to a meal at noon."
"Brother Xia, I'll treat you when this is done." Zhang Xu finished the glass of water that Xia Zekai had just poured for him, and left a message before leaving.
The old Jetta swung its butt and drove away.
Xia Zekai came to the workshop and chatted with Meng Jie for a while. He asked, "Sister Meng, we have something to discuss."
"Speak quickly and directly." Meng Jie was annoyed by this the most.
"Okay, Sister Meng, tell them to help me move the two ovens from the Lin Ao community store and install them together. I plan to make unified products here and sell them there." Xia Zekai
One sentence and it's all done.
Meng Jie didn't even ask anyone from the manufacturer, so she agreed: "No problem."
After coming out of the workshop, Xia Zekai called Li Mumu and asked him to prepare in advance. He packed everything that needed to be packed and went directly to get the equipment in the afternoon.
"Boss, you don't want it here anymore?" Li Mumu's face suddenly changed and he asked.
The garage shop that was first used to start the business has now become a warehouse for storing milk powder. The upper and lower floors of the newly rented two-story building have not been fully used yet. The boss is moving again?
Xia Zekai probably guessed what he was thinking, and said: "I have paid half a year's rent, how can I just say I don't want it? Lao Li, don't think too much. This is a reform of our company. From now on, the store will only do sales."
, the functions are specialized, and the production is all done in the factory.”
"One more thing, you have to follow me when the time comes, and you will be responsible for the daily management here." Xia Zekai said.
Li Mumu's spring has finally arrived.
After hanging up the boss's phone call, Li Mumu couldn't come to his senses for a long time.
He is a big man, but a tough man can also have tenderness. He almost shed tears. Unexpectedly, in middle age, a man has blossomed several times.
"Everyone, listen to me." Li Mumu took off his oven gloves and said, "The boss just called and said that this place will be used exclusively for selling things from now on. In the afternoon, someone will come and sell this place."
The two ovens have been moved to the new factory, and all of us who make beans will also go to work there. Everyone, hurry up and finish the work at hand, and clean the equipment later."
"Ah, I'm moving..."
"I've only been here a few days, why am I moving out? Isn't that reliable?"
"Can I think about it?"
The three people we just recruited have different ideas, but others like Man Nana, Zhang San, Guo Ying and others don't think so.
Guo Ying was even a little disappointed. She asked: "Brother Li, did the boss say, can I go to work in the factory?"
Li Mumu shook his head: "The boss didn't say anything. You should do your work first and wait until the boss comes over in the afternoon."
Several people hurriedly went to work.
At noon, Xia Zekai came back. After eating a few simple meals, he gathered several people in the store together.
"Lao Li has told you everything!" Xia Zekai asked.
Seeing the seven people nodding, Xia Zekai continued: "Everyone, we are going to set up a company. I have asked someone to help register it today. From now on, all aspects of production, sales, etc. will be more formal, and the treatment of employees will also be
more perfect."
"Lao Li, take Man Nana, Xiao Zheng, Xiao Dong, and Xiao Liang to the factory."
"Guo Ying, you stay and take charge of the sales work here, no problem!"
Guo Ying nodded quickly: "No problem."
Xia Zekai then looked at Zhang San: "Zhang San, you can follow me to the factory and set up the Taobao store as soon as possible. Is that okay?"
"Boss, I have no questions, but I would like to ask, how far is the factory from us?" He was actually asking for the other three newcomers.
Xia Zekai also understood. He said, "It's more than two kilometers away from here."
More than two kilometers!
The last three people who came over all breathed a sigh of relief. It wasn't too far away, and the salary was pretty good when we negotiated. The distance was still acceptable.
"Guo Ying, on your side, I will recruit two more people for you, and then they will all be under your control. There will be no problem with this." Xia Zekai finally said.
Guo Ying was a little depressed just now. She was about to be separated from Brother Li and Sister Man, and she was still a little reluctant to let go.
But when she heard her boss said that she had been promoted and she would be able to manage people in the future, Guo Ying immediately became happy.
"Okay, I have no problem. I promise not to hold the company back," Guo Ying said.
After the work was assigned, Li Mumu and a few people hurriedly turned all the ingredients mixed in the morning into finished melted beans. After finishing, they began to clean up the equipment.
Xia Zekai also called Li Yuanyang from the distant human resources department and asked him to help recruit two more store clerks and two workers who could bake.
We don't have time to train pure new people now. Maybe at some point, the output will increase significantly, and we must recruit experienced people.
Hearing Xia Zekai's recruitment requirements, Li Yuanyang was surprised: "Brother Xia, the three people we recruited last time were not enough?"
"It's not enough. I have to increase my production. The manpower is still quite tight at the moment. Brother Li, you need more help." Xia Zekai said.
Without any more nonsense, Li Yuanyang agreed immediately. After he hung up the phone, he began to arrange for Xia Zekai to be recruited.
After finishing the work, Li Yuanyang couldn't figure out why Xia Zekai was so short of people. He thought about calling his old friend Xia Yunhui and asking him what was going on with his uncle.
Li Yuanyang did whatever he thought and immediately called Xia Yunhui.
After Xia Yunhui was connected, the two chatted for a few words, and then Li Yuanyang got to the point and expressed his doubts.
Not to mention he was confused, Xia Yunhui was even more confused: "Brother Li, you said my brother asked you to recruit people again?"
"Isn't it true that we are recruiting four people at once this time, two store clerks and two production workers who know how to bake? I'm confused, so I'll ask you." Li Yuanyang was full of questions.
But Xia Yunhui really didn't know. He said: "I don't know very well. I just know that my cousin was doing well in business, but suddenly he resigned and started his own business. By the time I found out, he was already big.
They all rented a two-story building."
"Then your brother is really amazing." Li Yuanyang admired him very much.
The two talked for a while and then hung up the phone.
At around three o'clock in the afternoon, Meng Jie brought the installation workers from the oven manufacturer to move two ovens for him.
The installation of this thing was not troublesome, but it was really troublesome to move it. The three installation masters also struggled for more than half an hour, and with the help of Li Mumu, Zhang San and others, they got all the equipment onto the truck.
Xia Zekai was going to Qiyun Kindergarten to pick up his two daughters from school at this time. Instead of following him to the factory, he arranged for Li Mumu to take someone there.
Let them come and get familiar with it today. If nothing else happens, work will officially start tomorrow.
When the six ovens were turned on at full speed, Xia Zekai was really excited. After more than two months of struggling, patching things together, and even borrowing a lot of debt, he finally made something famous.
In the evening, Xia Zekai told his wife Luo Xiyun about the progress. When Xia Zekai said that even the two ovens in the store had been moved, she readily agreed: "It should have been like this a long time ago. They are still there in the store. They are nondescript.
.”
"How is your situation now?" Xia Zekai asked him.
Luo Xiyun sighed: "Zekai, I just understood a truth. If you compromise once, you will compromise a second time. Once people have no restraint, they will always regard wrong as right. Principles are bullshit!"
Xia Zekai glanced at her and said, "Daughter-in-law, it's okay. I went to class for two months and gained some insights into life. What's going on? Are you going to write a book about it?"
"Get out of here, I'll talk to you about the business!" Luo Xiyun angrily wanted to slap him.
Xia Zekai knew what was going on, but there was nothing to discuss about this kind of thing, so he could just muddle along.
"Daughter-in-law, our family now has its own factory. The production and sales links have been initially established, but there is no one in the quality supervision department. How about you come over and give it a try?" Xia Zekai asked him.
Luo Xiyun refused without thinking: "No, I don't know about food quality inspection. I'd better learn it here for a year and a half."
"A year and a half?" Xia Zekai thought to himself. If you look at it again in half a year, I guarantee it will be different.
He didn't get serious with Luo Xiyun either.
At around eight o'clock in the evening, Li Mumu called Xia Zekai. He told Xia Zekai that the two ovens had been installed and other workers had also gone to the factory to familiarize themselves with the factory and prepare to start work normally tomorrow.
"Boss, if you don't have any other instructions, I'll leave first," Li Mumu said.
There was no one in the workshop, and he was the last one to leave.
After putting his cell phone in his pocket and locking the door with a brass three-ring lock, Li Mumu started walking back on the second-hand motorcycle he just bought.
The speed of electric motorcycles is very fast, and it is completely incomparable to his old shabby electric motorcycle.
It usually takes more than half an hour to get home, but now twenty minutes is enough.
It's just that this electric motorcycle cannot remove the battery and carry it upstairs for charging like the previous electric motorcycles.
In order to solve this problem, Li Mumu pulled a waterproof and wear-resistant wire strip from upstairs, stretched it all the way downstairs, and used this stupid method to charge.
In fact, most people here do this, which is very convenient, but also very dangerous.
Li Mumu returned home and told his wife about the changes that had just happened in the store, and then described a better future to his wife in detail.
After Huang Shuangshuang heard what he said, it was like listening to a fairy tale.
"So, you've been promoted again? You were the store manager before, where are you now? Factory manager? Do you want to raise your salary?"
"Boss, you just have long hair and short knowledge. Can you stop focusing on your salary? The boss asked me to go over there and take care of it. This is trust in me. The boss will definitely not treat me badly in the future. There are some things you should do best.
It's so easy to pretend to be confused, don't hang around all day long." Li Mumu has his own way of dealing with people.
On the surface, Li Mumu looks a bit honest and dull, but Li Mumu is actually quite shrewd.
…
The next day, after sending Yatou and Tongtong to kindergarten, Xia Zekai rode his electric bike directly to the 'Jingtong Food Factory'.
When he came over, Li Mumu and the others had been waiting here. They drove two red Wan-tou-level cars on the ground and ran around, hoping that Xia Zekai, the leader, would personally ignite the hanging whip for the company's opening.
In addition, I also thought about asking him to say a few sentences. In such an exciting moment, the boss would be a little pale if he didn't speak.
Meng Jie also came over. One of her came to send blessings to Xia Zekai, and the second one wanted to settle the bill with him.
4 ovens, 47,600 yuan, no matter how good the relationship is, there is no ambiguity.
The "cracking" sound of firecrackers was swallowed up in the flickering light of the fire and the swirling smoke. A pungent smell of sulfur and fire salt came, making people unable to help but sneeze.
"Jingtong Food Factory has officially opened!" Someone's shouts rang out in the sky, and then I remembered more cheers.
