Chapter 832 From now on, they are all social people (5100-character chapter) 1450
After arriving here, Lu Huan was already waiting at the door, Wang Yi parked the car outside, and Cui Xiaofeng followed Xia Zekai into the construction site.
Here, they are still cleaning up the ground garbage, backfilling the earthwork, and compacting the ground. After the ground meets the standard requirements, they will begin to gradually harden the ground before proceeding with the next step of construction.
Lu Chen explained the whole process to him one by one. Xia Zekai nodded while listening and said hello to several people on the way.
"Lao Lu, you have not disappointed me. Keep working hard and strive to complete the third phase of the construction project as soon as possible." Xia Zekai gave him a thumbs-up gesture in recognition of him.
When Lu Hao heard the word 'completed', he couldn't stop laughing. He said: "Boss, according to the current progress, it will take a year and a half at the earliest. The second phase of the construction project will most likely not be available until the end of next year."
Hearing this number, Xia Zekai turned around expressionlessly and said, "That won't work. This speed is too slow. Tell Mr. Jiang and ask him to send more manpower. If one shift doesn't work, then two shifts will work backwards.
The sooner the third phase is completed, the better.”
The longer the construction period takes, the more detrimental it will be to Jingtong Development Co., Ltd.
The capital occupied is too large, the payback period is too long, and the production is delayed. These are things Xia Zekai does not want to see.
Naturally, Lu Chen would not refute the boss's intention. He nodded and said, "I'll give Mr. Jiang feedback."
"Well...forget it, I'll give him a call now." Xia Zekai thought for a while, then took out his cell phone and prepared to call Jiang Honggang himself.
After waiting for the call to be connected, Jiang Honggang's voice came from the other side of the phone: "Boss Xia, good afternoon."
"Mr. Jiang, I'm very bad!" Xia Zekai said.
When Jiang Hong heard what he said, he immediately began to reflect on what went wrong on his side.
But after much deliberation, he couldn't figure it out. He asked humbly: "Boss Xia, is there anything we didn't do well in the construction?"
"Mr. Jiang, the construction period of my third-phase project will take one and a half years. It's too slow and I can't accept it." Xia Zekai said bluntly without covering up.
He said: "I estimate that I will invest more than 300 million. I definitely hope that this project will be put into production as soon as possible. The construction period of one and a half years is unacceptable to me. You must find a way to solve this problem for me."
"..." Jiang Honggang didn't speak.
Everyone wants their project to be completed faster, but construction is not just a pile of building blocks, as long as they are put on top and they don't fall over.
To take the simplest example, hardening the ground requires waiting for the concrete to completely solidify before proceeding to the next step.
When building foundation piers, you have to wait until the concrete has completely solidified before you can install the steel structure on top.
This is all very particular, and each step takes time.
Xia Zekai naturally knew this truth. He didn't hear Jiang Honggang's words, so he said to himself: "Mr. Jiang, I also know that this request is very difficult for you. I won't rush you on the key point, but other work must be done at a faster pace. There are not enough people.
, you think of a way to allocate manpower, if one shift doesn't work, then you can do two shifts, I can add more money."
It was quite difficult to talk about at first, but when it came to adding more money, Jiang Honggang quickly clarified: "Boss Xia, I didn't mean that..."
"I understand what you mean. Let's do this. We will use 18 months as the construction period. If you can complete the project one month ahead of schedule, I will give you an extra 1 million yuan."
"Boss Xia, it's really not about money!"
"Mr. Jiang, let me tell you one last time. If you can finish the work one month ahead of schedule, I will give you an extra 2 million. How much you can take away depends on how capable you are." Xia Zekai emphasized again.
He would rather pay more for the project than shorten the construction period and start production one month earlier. According to the scale of the third phase of the project, the operating income would be several hundred million, and the profit would be tens of millions more.
, does he care about the millions invested now?
"Boss Xia, I will first transfer people to the third phase project to work two shifts, and complete the work that can be rushed forward as soon as possible. When the second phase project is completed, I will transfer people from the second phase to work the third shift!" Jiang Honggang made a mental calculation.
After thinking about it, if they can complete the project half a year ahead of schedule, they can get an additional 12 million yuan in project funds, which is almost equivalent to 8% of the total project funds. This can be a good deal.
Xia Zekai said: "I don't care how many shifts you run, the sooner you finish the work, the better!"
"We have an agreement!" Jiang Honggang never mentioned signing a paper agreement. He knew that Xia Zekai was not that kind of person.
Sure enough, the next moment I heard Xia Zekai say: "Mr. Jiang, come to Qicheng to make up an agreement when you are free."
"Okay, I'll go over and dispatch the manpower as soon as possible." Jiang Honggang said tactfully.
After hanging up the phone, Xia Zekai told Lu Huan: "They will arrange the construction workers. We don't care about that, but we must do two things well."
"Boss, please tell me!" Lu Hao said with a serious expression on his face.
Then I heard Xia Zekai say: "First point, they will run two shifts in the near future and three shifts in the future. You arrange people to do on-site safety inspections. We can't have safety accidents just because we are rushing to work. Everything will be bad by then."
Save."
"I will make a plan right away and ask Manager Wang to help recruit a few more safety officers and follow up on the construction progress in three shifts throughout the day." Lu Hao nodded and told his plan.
Xia Zekai stretched out two fingers and continued: "The second point is to rush the work, but the quality of the construction period must be ensured. You arrange for people to supervise the construction. If there is any cheating behavior, report it immediately."
Whether there were safety issues along the way, or shoddy work in order to rush the work and create an unqualified project, it would be their own fault. Xia Zekai spent a lot of money and definitely didn't want such a result.
After Xia Zekai finished speaking, he and Lu Huan reviewed a few requirements before leaving.
It was almost four o'clock at this time, and he had to go to the kindergarten to pick up Yatou and Tongtong from school.
When he arrived here, he happened to catch up with Rainbow Bridge Kindergarten after school.
Xia Zekai said to Wang Yi: "Go to the door and put me down. You can just go in and put the car away."
"Yes!" Wang Yi responded. When Xia Zekai got off the car, Cui Xiaofeng followed him.
The two of them arrived at the entrance of the kindergarten one after another, only to find Yatou and Tongtong playing on the slide in the yard. Xia Zekai shouted. The two sisters heard the sound and quickly slid down the slide and ran towards the door:
"Dad, we are all after school, why did you come to pick us up?"
Teacher Gege is also waiting here. This is the first time she and Xia Zekai have met, but Yatou and Tongtong will definitely not admit their mistake. She smiled and said: "It's Mr. Xia, we get off work at six in the afternoon in spring and autumn here.
It gets dark early in the winter, so we get off work at 5:30 at the latest. If you have something urgent, please go ahead and come and pick her up."
Hearing what she said, Xia Zekai lamented that although this private kindergarten paid more money, it was very humane in every aspect and considered parents well. It was worth spending money to buy peace of mind.
"Teacher, thank you. I'll leave you a phone number so you can contact me if you need anything in the future." Xia Zekai said tactfully.
Teacher Gege directly gave Xia Zekai her contact number. Xia Zekai saved it, then dialed it and said: "This is my phone number. Our Tongtong is quite naughty. If anything happens in the future, the teacher will tell me directly.
"
When Teacher Gege heard what he said, she thought, you know the feelings too!
One hand at a time, he led Yatou and Tongtong to say goodbye to Teacher Gege. Xia Zekai took them directly into the gate of the villa area next to them.
Teacher Gege looked at their backs with envy, but she also knew that it had nothing to do with her, so she looked away, and she was ready to get off work.
Let's say that after Xia Zekai took Yatou and Tongtong home, Zhou Yinghong saw her two granddaughters coming back, and she immediately greeted them.
"Girl, Tongtong, is it fun in the kindergarten?" Zhou Yinghong asked.
The girl leaned into her grandma's arms and said, "Grandma, kindergarten is so fun. We even painted cactus today. I'll teach you later!"
"Okay, how to draw?" Zhou Yinghong asked.
The girl said: "What our teacher said is to put your hands on the paper and draw with strokes, just like this... like this... like this again!"
Zhou Yinghong was confused. She didn't understand anything, but the girl chased her and asked: "Grandma, I told you everything, do you understand?"
"Tell me again, please." Zhou Yinghong wanted to say, "I understand," but after thinking about it, she decided not to lie in front of her granddaughter.
She said: "Girl, grandma is old and stupid. Please tell me again."
"Okay, grandma, listen carefully." The girl said it again patiently.
But Zhou Yinghong still didn't understand. Finally, the girl found some paper and drew it with a pen. Zhou Yinghong understood it this time.
When Luo Xiyun came back, she saw their eldest son and grandma gathering together and muttering something. When she saw this scene, she felt happy.
But when she saw Tongtong, she was even happier: "Tongtong, I heard that you beat someone up in the kindergarten today, right?"
"Huh, no, they wanted to bully me, and I didn't want to hit them. It's so abominable!" Tongtong snorted, not agreeing with her mother's statement at all.
Xia Zekai smiled and said, "The second brother did the right thing today. We don't take the initiative to bully others, but we can't be bullied either."
Regarding this point, Tongtong did a great job!
Xia Zekai went to make dinner, and the family had another lively meal in the evening.
Xia Zekai also said that he would buy some mutton rolls and beef rolls and have hot pot at home tomorrow night.
No one else had one, so Luo Xiyun specifically warned: "Zekai, buy two bases, one spicy and one non-spicy."
"OK!" Xia Zekai gestured with his hand.
I was enjoying the cool air with my grandpa in the yard at night, but the summer in June was very hot and the nights were not cool. Occasionally, a burst of sultry air swept over me, making it even more uncomfortable.
The grandfather and grandson were defeated.
Mother and father discussed the marriage of their younger brother Xia Zejiang. They said they would order two buses from their hometown and bring all the folks and relatives from their hometown who were willing to come over, or they could hold a wedding ceremony at home after the ceremony was completed here.
field.
Xia Zekai did not get involved in this matter. His parents could just discuss it and he would just help with the work when the time comes.
One night passed. In the morning, Xia Zekai sent Yatou and Tongtong to the Rainbow Bridge Kindergarten at the door, then went to the company, where he met the happy Li Mumu downstairs.
"Good morning, Lao Li!" Xia Zekai greeted.
Li Mumu also shouted: "Boss, good morning."
Xia Zekai looked at him carefully and realized that Li Mumu was in good spirits today. He asked: "Old Li, what happy news do you have, please tell me."
"Hey, isn't it the college entrance examination in the past two days? My son has finished the exam. He said he did well in the exam and maybe he can get into 985 or 211 universities." Li Mumu was very happy.
This is more exciting than him getting a promotion and a salary increase. It is a matter of his whole life that his son can get into a good university. It is strange that he is unhappy.
If nothing else, my son’s starting point is more than one level higher than most of his peers.
Xia Zekai perked up when he heard what he said: "Really, Lao Li, choose a day and I'll treat you two to dinner."
"Boss, no, you're too polite." Li Mumu quickly refused.
But Xia Zekai said: "Didn't I tell you before? After your son's college entrance examination is over, if he can get into a good school, I will treat him to dinner. I hate people who don't keep their words."
"..." Li Mumu was a little confused.
He remembered that his boss seemed to have really said this, and he thought it was a joke at first. How could he refuse?
The next moment, he said: "Boss, the results haven't been released yet. What if he thinks he did well in the exam, but his results are a mess, that would be embarrassing."
"Haha, let's wait a little longer. By the way, what date will they check the results?" Xia Zekai stopped and asked.
Li Mumu was a little nervous. It was obvious that the boss couldn't make it for this meal. He finally said generously: "It should be around June 25th."
"Okay, the results are out. Tell me. I don't need to rush you anymore." Xia Zekai asked him.
Li Mumu quickly waved his hand: "No, no!"
"Old Li, there is one more thing. In the two days since you were away, our company has begun to organize training and assessment for all internal managers. This matter is handled by IBM's General Manager Yan and Manager Wang of the Human Resources Department. I will personally handle it. Our company must
If we want to make steady progress in the rapid development in the future and not fall behind in market competition, we must change." Xia Zekai specifically mentioned this matter.
Li Mumu nodded in agreement: "Boss, I understand everything, and I also support this training and assessment. Our company used to be reckless all the way, but the company wants to develop in the longer term, the scale wants to be further expanded, and the management skills of the personnel have also improved.
You have to keep up, otherwise it’s easy to get out of touch.”
"Small things don't matter, but if the disconnect is too serious, a major accident will easily occur. When it gets out of control, the company's losses will be immeasurable."
"I hope everyone can think like you." Xia Zekai strode into the office building and went straight up the stairs to the third floor.
Li Mumu also went to his office, looked at the work accumulated in the past two days, and then sent a special email to the deputy managers, supervisors, and front-line managers of each department of the production department. He asked everyone to take this time seriously.
During the training and assessment, anyone who dares to play tricks or slack off at work will be fired immediately.
He particularly emphasized that he would personally go to his boss to apply for N+1 compensation.
At this moment, many people felt a chilling air, and some people who were still unclear about it felt as if they had been poured cold water on them, completely waking up.
…
Xia Zejiang stayed in Jicheng for three days and two nights. On the first night in Jicheng, he and Shen Jiayi got together with their old classmates. They had dinner and karaoke in the evening and had a great time.
Everyone seems to know that after tonight, there will be fewer such heartless days.
The next day, they each interviewed their teachers for defense. Not surprisingly, both Xia Zejiang and Shen Jiayi passed successfully.
Afterwards, the teacher and the students had a meal together. During the meal, several teachers once again reviewed the topics they had discussed.
"Students, you will officially enter the society after today. In school, teachers can tolerate your mistakes and your incomprehensions, but after you enter the workplace, you must recognize the reality. If you make a wrong step, you may be in trouble.
I missed an opportunity to improve myself.”
"Teacher gives you another piece of advice: you must be flexible when you enter the workplace."
At this dinner, many students were drunk, and several teachers also drank too much.
Before parting, some emotional classmates hugged their teacher and cried.
Shen Jiayi was no exception. When she came back from Jicheng this morning, her eyes were still red.
At this moment, they are no longer students, they all have a unified title of "social people".
After returning to Qicheng, they first went to the Ziyu Garden Villa area to visit their parents and grandfather, and then went to the factory.
They had been away for three days, and they were still really concerned about the production situation at the factory.
After driving into the factory gate, they drove slowly from the middle passage to the south end, parked the car against the south wall, and entered the large workshop on the east side.
The rumbling sound of machinery and equipment was heard, and the workers were all working enthusiastically at their respective posts.
There was a big fan blowing next to me, but the weather in June couldn't be cooled down by just a few fans.
Xia Zejiang and Shen Jiayi entered the workshop and stood there for a few minutes before starting to sweat.
Not to mention the workers who were working, all of them were soaked with sweat, and sweat was dripping down their clothes. Some cartons even had fingerprints on them. Shen Jiayi said: "Zejiang, this won't work.
, we have to find a way to cool down, otherwise these workers won’t be able to bear it.”
"Well, I know!" Xia Zejiang said: "I'll go find Mr. Liu and ask him if he can install industrial air conditioners or water-cooled air conditioners in the workshop. We'll pay the electricity and water bills. If it doesn't work, we have to do it ourselves."
Considered."
"I'm afraid it won't be easy for Mr. Liu to agree, that's not a small amount." Shen Jiayi said.
She has learned that the most well-known brand of industrial air conditioners is York, which can make living.
According to the usable area of their workshop, in order to achieve the best refrigeration effect, one set would cost hundreds of thousands more to install.
"It depends on the situation!" Xia Zejiang went to the office building in front to find Liu Jiwu.
If this kind of workshop situation is not solved, it will not be a matter of whether we can work or not, but the human body will not be able to bear it. When problems arise and we are ordered to stop production for rectification, it will be a bigger trouble.
