Chapter 19 Plan ahead
He drove the Land Rover back to the bath at a blister's pace. When I looked up, I knew that today's events were no longer trivial. Because there were several law enforcement vehicles, the road in front of the bath was blocked. Hu Er was standing on the steps, looking forward to it like a monkey, scratching his ears and cheeks in a hurry. Before his car could stop, Hu Er rushed over, "Boss, go and take a look, the law enforcement officers from the Industry and Commerce, Taxation, Water and Electricity Bureaus are here." Saying that we have stolen water and electricity, they are checking it inside, tossing a miasma. ”
Jiang Tao wondered, why did so many competent departments come, is it joint law enforcement? This kind of thing is very rare.
He only said, "Don't panic, I'll take a look." ”
As soon as I entered the lobby, I saw several people in uniforms and large-brimmed hats pointing and talking about something. And Li Chuang and Jin Dacheng are struggling to cope there. Especially Jin Dacheng, nodding his head and waist, trying to please the other party. It can be seen that they are all a little blushing and thick-necked, and they seem to be a little irresistible.
As soon as Jiang Tao appeared, the water inspector didn't say a word, and immediately calculated an account for him: "Are you the boss? Excuse me, what's going on?"
Hearing this, Jiang Tao's heart moved, and he immediately felt that something was wrong. It seems that today law enforcement is prepared. Who reported himself?
Thinking like this in his heart, he did not change his face on the surface, and explained confidently: "Yes, your analysis is very accurate. However, in order to reduce costs, we hired experts to put on a set of water purification devices, recycled, filtered, and disinfected the daily bathing water, and purified the water quality, so that the bathing wastewater fully meets the standard of bathing water and can be reused. As a result, water consumption has dropped dramatically. ”
Bathroom wastewater contains a high concentration of pollutants, and it is one of the more serious pollution sources in domestic wastewater. In the bathtub of the bathroom, a certain amount of fresh water is usually placed before heating. When the water temperature is heated from 20 degrees Celsius to about 48 degrees Celsius, it is served to customers for bathing. When a certain number of baths is reached (usually from morning to noon), the pollutants in the hot water will gradually increase and produce odors. When the pollutants in the water reach a certain concentration, the peculiar smell is stronger, which affects the customer's bathing. At this point, it's time to drain the wastewater and replace it with new water. After heating again, let the customer take a bath. In the evening, one last discharge is done.
In general, the water temperature at the time of discharge is about 45 degrees Celsius. Jiang Tao made a fuss about this wastewater. Under the guidance of experts, the bottom of the bath was transformed into a static pressure drain. When the sewage is discharged, a certain amount of coagulant and fungicide is added, and the precipitated sludge is discharged into the outdoor underground collection tank after stirring and coagulation. The remaining sewage is activated by adding microbial bacteria and enzymes, so that the clarified solution can be used again.
The slurry-like wastewater collected at the bottom of the pool is pumped into the cinder adsorption sand filter tank with a water pump, and can be discharged up to the standard after adsorption filtration treatment.
The temperature of the treated water is basically unchanged and can be used continuously. In this way, it does not waste water and electricity resources, and increases the amount of bathing for customers.
Generally speaking, the water consumption of the bath is a large expense, and Jiang Tao has long thought of making a fuss about saving water. Some time ago, the intellectual-looking people he invited were experts in water purification.
In the summer, people can obviously take a bath in their own homes, but there are so many people who come to him to take a bath, the picture is that he has a comfortable and warm environment, good service attitude, and low price. Because the cost of water has been greatly reduced, the price of bath tickets has naturally become the lowest price in the local area, and naturally there are many customers.
His ultra-low price has already aroused the jealousy of many peers, suspecting him of stealing water and electricity, so he was reported, which attracted joint law enforcement from various departments to investigate him.
At this time, the inspector of the Electric Power Bureau also interjected: "Even if you save water, what about electricity? Your electricity consumption has also dropped significantly, what is going on?"
Jiang Tao smiled, "Actually, this is also very simple, in the past, it consumed a lot of electricity because it needed electricity to keep the water warm." Our Longquan Pavilion bathroom is for ordinary people, and ordinary people will not come out to take a bath at night. Then overnight, the water temperature will drop to room temperature. Therefore, at the same time as we carried out the water purification retrofit, the reservoir was also improved, and the insulation material was added, forming a thermos bucket-like device, so that the water temperature was lost as little as possible, and the three ways of heat transfer were prevented: conduction, convection, and radiation. As a result, the consumption of electrical energy is reduced. In addition, we have developed and utilized the hot air flow rising in the bathhouse to generate electricity. The electricity generated is used to heat the water. As a result, the consumption of electrical energy is further reduced. And soon, we will be using state-of-the-art photovoltaics. At that time, in addition to being self-sufficient, we can also sell the surplus electricity to the state and make an extra profit. ”
Law enforcement officers were skeptical of his fanciful claims. So, Jiang Tao led them to visit and inspect each item one by one, and spoke with facts. The health department also took samples of the water quality of the baths. However, it turned out that it fully met the standards for bathing water.
After a strict inspection, not only did not find any flaws, but also found many bright spots. It was only then that law enforcement officers were convinced. They were greatly surprised, not only admiring Jiang Tao's imagination and practice, but also praised: "Not bad, not bad, it reduces the cost of the bath, prevents the discharge of sewage, and eliminates the pollution caused to the environment." This project of yours is worth promoting. ”
So, they asked Jiang Tao, have you ever thought about promoting your practice? Let more baths adopt your practice? When Jiang Tao heard this, he shook his head again and again, and flatly refused: "I don't want to." ”
He knew very well that now was not the time for the Grand Duke. In that way, their competitive advantage will be lost. This is his exclusive secret, his sunflower treasure. The rivers and lakes are sinister, and matters involving core interests must not be styled.
The law enforcement officers were withdrawn, and everyone was happy. Jin Dacheng has a quick brain, and suggested that he could use this to make a big fuss and disclose on the Internet the causes and consequences of our bath being investigated. In this way, we will definitely be able to get a blessing in disguise, enhance the popularity of our baths, and attract more bathers.
Hu Er's eyes lit up when he heard this, "Hey, Secretary Jin, this time you got to the point." That's right, I'll take care of that. ”
In fact, Hu Er is also a layman about the hype on the Internet. However, he can hire a network master.
After some hype, sure enough, the reputation of the Longquan Pavilion bathroom became famous, and more customers came to take a bath, more than ever. It's really time to run, the icing on the cake, and the day is making money.
Jiang Tao struck while the iron was hot, and hired authentic masseurs and bathers. At the same time, attention is paid to the humanization of every detail, such as the hygiene is cleaner and the lighting is softer. In addition, non-slip mats, slippers, bath towels, soap, shampoo, disposable shavers, hair dryers, etc., and various small accessories are also available.
Jiang Tao said at the all-staff meeting: "We can't be a little rich and settle down, so we can be complacent. In the next step, I plan to use photovoltaic power generation to make use of the effective space in the bath. On the rooftop of the building, solar panels are erected. In this way, the surplus electricity that cannot be used can be sold to the state. That is, generating electricity and making money, killing two birds with one stone. ”
His idea was originally inspired by an article on home photovoltaics. Subsequently, he hired Li Feifei's uncle to guide him. Therefore, it was not long before the roof of the bathroom of Longquan Pavilion was densely packed with solar panels sloping south, each with a power of 250 watts, and the benefits of such a large piece were considerable. Moreover, from quantitative to qualitative changes, even if it is cloudy, there is no situation where electricity cannot be generated at all.
From a distance, these solar panels form a unique landscape of the bathroom of Longquan Pavilion.
Under the guidance of experts, Jiang Tao installed an inverter and a combiner box. The inverter is responsible for converting direct current into alternating current. The combiner box plays the role of collecting lines and protecting the power grid.
On the surface, the bathroom of Longquan Pavilion is prosperous and thriving. Buying and selling are prosperous all over the world, and the wealth is lush. However, Jiang Tao looked at the essence through the phenomenon and was soberly aware that there were still potential hidden dangers. Last time, the joint law enforcement team conducted a surprise inspection on him, which was quite intriguing. On the surface, it looks like a competitor reported him out of jealousy. But in reality, he didn't think it was that simple. Because in addition to the well-known data on the water and electricity consumption of the baths, law enforcement officials also cite some other small details. And these details are impossible for outsiders to know. So, that is to say, there must be someone who is making trouble. In other words, in the bathroom, there is a ghost.
If this matter is not investigated, it will be a big trouble for him. Although his feet are not afraid of crooked shoes, he has not done anything wrong, and he is not afraid of ghosts calling the door. However, someone is always secretly calculating him, so he will chase after the wind and catch the shadows, make a big fuss, and make a big deal in the bath in terms of management, employee contradictions, and other small things, and infinitely magnify them, make a big fuss, add oil and vinegar, list some trumped-up charges, and spread them in the society, which is also unbearable. Who doesn't want to be safe, calm, and prosperous?
However, he sifted all the employees in the bath, and he couldn't figure it out. He thinks that he is not thin on his employees, and he has not offended anyone. There seems to be no reason for the employees to do that.
Just when he couldn't figure it out, Wang Yu, the director of the women's guest department, inadvertently said something that caught his attention.
On this day, as soon as he came out of the men's bath, he saw several female workers chatting in the hall, and heard Wang Yu say: "The ivy bath is not bad, and the treatment is not inferior to ours here." ”
When a female worker who was eating melon seeds heard this, she craned her neck and said, "Ah, is there a bath with the same treatment as ours? Why haven't I heard of it? Who opened it, and what is the name of the boss?"
Wang Yu said: "Hmm...... It seems to be called Yao Zheng. ”
Yao Zheng: It's true that the speaker has no intention, but the listener has a heart. This sentence happened to be heard by Jiang Tao. The name Yao Zheng is very familiar to him.
So, he wanted to confirm that the Yao Zheng that Wang Yu said was the same person as the Yao Zheng in his mind?
"Wang Yu. ”
He shouted, turned and walked towards his office.
"Hey. ”
Wang Yu agreed, and trotted all the way to catch up.
Pushing the door into his office, he sat down in the boss's chair, and motioned for Wang Yu to sit opposite him, and asked casually, "Which Yao Zheng did you say just now?"
When Wang Yu heard this, his face immediately turned red, and he hesitated for a moment before he said tactfully: "Boss, you ...... How can you eavesdrop on other people's conversations?"
Jiang Tao smiled: "Is the conversation so formal? Aren't you chattering?"
Wang Yu stopped squeaking and pursed the corners of his mouth.
Seeing this, Jiang Tao leaned back in his chair and said, "I'll just ask casually, if it's inconvenient to say, then forget it." ”
Wang Yu was silent for a moment before he spoke: "It's the deputy director of production in our original unit." ”
Oh, sure enough, it's him.
Yao Zheng is quite easy-going and understanding on the surface, but in his bones, he has the strength to not admit defeat and likes to compete with others in secret. In addition, he is very intelligent and good at analyzing and solving problems. Such a person is not easy to deal with. Why, he also opened a bath? It's quite intriguing.
Thinking like this, Jiang Tao asked, "How did you know about this? Where did Yao Zheng open the bath?"
Wang Yu hesitated, saying that he heard from others, but he couldn't call it himself.
"Oh. Jiang Tao nodded and wrote lightly: "Okay, you go out." ”
Looking at Wang Yu's back, Jiang Tao felt that something was wrong, Wang Yu has always been a very open person, and he spoke and acted very neatly, but how could he be hesitant and spitting today? In addition, as the head of the women's guest department, she didn't talk to herself, how could she secretly praise other people's baths for being good? What did she want to do?
Thinking like this, he called Hu Er and arranged for him to check on the newly opened bath called Ivy, where is it?
Hu Eryi patted his chest and said, "Boss, don't worry, this matter is on me." ”
