Lao Tan looked at Yanzi and Yanhua and said, "You two are the bosses now. Although we are friends, one thing is for sure. If I, Lao Tan, were not a good person and had insufficient virtue, you two would not call me here. On the contrary,
It's the same here, you two are petty, careless about everything, and worry about money before you even get started, and I, Lao Tan, will never cooperate, because there is no future in that way."
"It is said that making money is related to ability and IQ. I agree, but not completely. I think how much wealth a person has has little to do with ability and IQ, but has something to do with blessings. How much blessings a person has, there will be as much blessings as they have.
wealth."
Yanzi asked in confusion: "What do you mean by blessings? Doing good deeds?"
"How should I put it, it is right to do good deeds. What I am talking about is to be a good person, be upright and kind, and not deceive and deceive. The most important thing is to be honest. Don't do things without conscience. If you have the ability and high IQ, use your intelligence and wisdom not to do good things, but to speculate.
He cheats and deceives, and even adds melamine to milk powder in order to make money, destroying the resources of future generations to make profits. Is this making money? The money he makes is not his, and he will have to pay it back sooner or later."
"We don't have that high IQ, but people have to be good people. Let's not say they are good people. If you can help within your ability, just help. If you can care, just care. But when you do good things, it doesn't matter whether it is good or bad. You may not be able to do it.
To respect God and love others without self or altruism, at least you have a clear conscience. A person's ability does not lie in how much money he makes, but in how many people he cares for with his ability. This is blessing."
"Whether you are a man or a woman, you must be open-minded, open-minded, and organized. According to Buddhism, it means having compassion. Although you cannot become a Buddha, you must at least do good deeds and accumulate virtue. The boss treats his employees as family members and treats them as brothers.
Sisters, they are family, and they think about everything for the hotel. If the employees are only seen as workers, paid workers, then the boss is just a supervisor, and it is normal for employees to cheat and cheat."
"Employees are family members. Needless to say, they serve guests warmly when they come. The dishes are delicious and fragrant, even if the business is not good. Once the boss becomes a supervisor, the consequences can be imagined. It is difficult to have good service and food quality.
.The reason is very simple. Family members work proactively, while employees work passively. Active work makes the business prosperous, while passive work kills the business.”
"Whether a hotel makes money or not is a matter of management, but it has a lot to do with the boss. The boss regards himself as a Bodhisattva, and the God of Wealth is his friend. He regards himself as the King of Hell, surrounded by little devils who want to get rich.
It’s all difficult.”
Yanhua and Yanzi were amused by Lao Tan. Thinking about it carefully, this is really what happened.
"Go on," Yanzi said.
Old Tan looked at the time and said: "After chatting for ten dollars, at 4:30, I will go home to pick up the children and cook for my wife. I think I will prepare the money, arrange the ventilation, and let's go to Thirteenth Wei Road."
"Oh, it's half past four, and I have to go back and cook for Lao Feng." Yanzi glanced at his watch, and then said, "Well, don't worry, the money will be fine."
Yanhua said: "Tomorrow I will go see the dormitory."
When Lao Tan arrived at the kindergarten, his son had already dressed and was sitting in the hall waiting for him. The other children had left, leaving his son alone with a look of grievance.
Lao Tan picked up his son, kissed his little face affectionately, and asked: "Son, what do you want to eat tonight?"
When his father asked him what he wanted to eat, the little guy immediately forgot about his grievance and said excitedly: "Pork in pot."
"Okay, Dad is making Guobao Pork. What else do you want to eat?"
"Candied sweet potatoes."
"Both the Guobao Pork and Shredded Sweet Potatoes are sweet, let's try another one."
"Then - Dad, it's up to you, you can do whatever you want." The son said sensibly.
"Mom likes to eat fried eggs and garlic sprouts, can we make it?"
"Okay, I also like to eat fried eggs and garlic sprouts."
When we passed the night market, we bought pork tenderloin and garlic sprouts and went upstairs happily.
Business in Guandong was very good during the Spring Festival, with sales of 1.55 million. This is the second time in a year that it has exceeded the 1.5 million mark. The first time was when Lao Tan was here.
After the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, business began to decline and returned to its previous state.
During this period, Mr. Xu called Lao Tan. He said that he wanted to ask Lao Tan to go back, but he didn't say it clearly. He knew that Lao Tan was working now, so he gave up.
But the hotel can't continue like this. Although it doesn't lose money, it doesn't make much money. It would be good to earn back the money invested when the contract expires. Five years is like playing in vain. How can this be done?
In early March, Guandong Renjia held a management meeting, attended by Wang Gang, Zhang Li, Li Shuang, Zhou Xiaomei, Hu Jing, Li Xu, Wang Shulan, Yuan Hua, Zhou Hongyou and Li Zhongqing, to discuss existing problems in management and prepare to strengthen management.
Improve efficiency.
The meeting was presided over by Mr. Xu himself. He first said: "The New Year is over and everyone has seen how our business is doing. It's time to calm down and get down to business."
This sentence sounds awkward to everyone, as if they are not working properly.
Wang Gang, who was sitting next to Mr. Xu, felt that he was talking about himself. Wasn't it because he went to his partner's house on the tenth day of the lunar month? Why, he stopped letting his partner go? His partner just stopped doing business?
Besides, I took a total of five days off, and I took it when I was not busy. I handed over all my work before I left, and nothing major happened. As for that?
He felt uncomfortable that Mr. Xu was talking about him, and realized that when he was talking about himself, he was also talking about Zhou Xiaomei, so he looked at Zhou Xiaomei opposite.
Zhou Xiaomei didn't have much reaction. She just felt that Mr. Xu shouldn't have said that. Even if she was dissatisfied with the management's work, she could express it in a way that made everyone realize that the work was not done well and not feel they were being hit. This would be better.
There will be no antagonism, and there will be effects.
When she saw Wang Gang looking at her, the expression on his face did not change, he was as cold and calm as usual.
Others also felt that Mr. Xu was talking about themselves, so everyone was serious and looked unhappy.
Mr. Xu didn't feel anything was wrong, and continued: "Last year, we sold 17 million, which looked like a lot, but in fact we didn't make any money. We can't continue like this. The amount of money we sold can best explain the problem. Our sales
Twenty-three million is normal. If it is not sold, it means there is a problem in management. We are all managers, and we know better than I what the problem is. Today we will do nothing else. Let’s talk about all the problems and put them on the table.
Research. Only when problems are solved can development be achieved, don’t you think so?”
Everyone nodded symbolically and no one spoke.
"Today is not about criticizing anyone, but about solving problems. Am I clear in saying that?" asked Mr. Xu.
"Clear."
"Clear."
Yuan Hua and Zhou Hongyou answered, while the others nodded.
Seeing that there were only two people catering to him, Mr. Xu was a little angry, and there was a slight scowl on his handsome face. But the scowl immediately disappeared, revealing a signature smile, and took a gentle breath.
When he was angry, he immediately thought of what the teacher said in the Chinese Studies class. As a business leader, you should not show your emotions on your face. It is the boss's problem that the managers are not doing their job well. You must first find the reasons within yourself. As the saying goes, a soldier is in trouble.
, if there is a nest of raging beasts, and if you are incompetent in leading the troops in battle, don't blame the soldiers under you for their screw-ups.
Mr. Xu said in a calm tone: "Let's talk about it and see what problems our family has."
The serious atmosphere slowly relaxed, and some people started talking in low voices.
After a while, Hu Jing said: "Let me tell you something. A lot of waiters in the private rooms on the third floor have resigned. There are 16 people in total, and eight of them have resigned. They will have to leave at the end of the month, and they can't recruit people. This matter
It must be resolved as soon as possible.”
"How come so many people have resigned?" Mr. Xu was surprised, and then asked: "Why are you leaving?"
Hu Jing did not say directly, but looked at Zhang Li.
Mr. Xu also turned his attention to Zhang Li.
Zhang Li said: "There are more than 20 people who have resigned, and some are also planning to quit. The main reason is that our salary is low. Mr. Xu, the salary of our waiters is indeed low, one thousand and eighty, compared with other people outside."
Two thousand, even a waiter in a small restaurant has two thousand three thousand."
Realizing the seriousness of the problem, Mr. Xu turned to Wang Gang and asked: "Wang Gang, has anyone resigned in the kitchen?"
Wang Gang said: "Many of them are unwilling to work due to the low salary. I have been looking for someone these past two days."
Mr. Xu's brows suddenly knitted together.
"Mr. Xu, our salary is really low. Nowadays, the price of chefs outside is 3,500 to 4,000, and a good one can't even get 5,000. Our current salary is 3,000, and no one would believe it if I tell you. There is also a chopping board, Xiao
The hotel already has two thousand yuan, and our family still has one thousand and fifteen, who is willing to work? Let alone the Dutch workers, eight out of ten Dutch workers have resigned. Now it is difficult to find a younger brother, so I have to find my ancestors. I am suppressing it and not approving it.
Tell them there will be an increase next month. If there is no increase when the capital is opened, a large number of them will have to leave." Wang Gang said helplessly.
Mr. Xu's brows were furrowed tighter, and he had a headache. He put his right hand on the table, spread his fingers, pressed his thumb and ring finger on his temple, and rubbed it subconsciously.
Wang Gang and Zhang Li had told him about the low wages before. He also knew the prices of chefs, chopping boards, tables, waiters, cold dishes, and noodles in restaurants outside, but he didn't dare to increase them.
There are 65 people in the kitchen and 75 people at the front desk. If the general adjustment is 100, it will be 14,000 per month. Obviously, the general adjustment of 100 is the same as no adjustment, no matter what. If the adjustment is 300, it will be 300 per month.
It's 42,000 yuan. In terms of current efficiency, there is no profit at all. It's like working in vain.
This is unacceptable to him.
So he wanted to start the business as soon as possible, and only after the sales amount had increased, he would dare to consider raising wages. He couldn't lose money.
I just didn't expect the problem to be so serious, it has reached the point where it can't be solved unless it is solved. If wages are not raised, it is estimated that all employees will have to leave in the next two months.
No one said anything, they were all waiting for Mr. Xu to make a decision.
Everyone is thinking, it’s not that they don’t manage, it’s that the wages are too low to retain people, and they dare not manage. The employees don’t want to work here in the first place, and the more they try to manage, the more they will be removed.
Everything else can be solved, but I don’t dare to talk about salary. No one has the right to increase it if the boss doesn’t say anything.
