Chapter 457: A Mission That Had to Be Accepted

"Oh? What are the preferential conditions? Brother Zhou, what preferential conditions do you have here, tell me quickly! Xiao Yu's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly urged.

Old God Zhou Zhi took a sip of wine on the ground, and then stuffed a mouthful of food into his mouth, and then said to Xiao Yu, "Since Mayor Zhou asked me to be responsible for the placement of laid-off workers, naturally I will not be asked to carry rice in an empty sack, first of all, the city government will provide forty low-rent shops within the scope of Yangpu District and Hongkou District, although the geographical location of these shops is not in the bustling commercial area, but they are all close to residential areas, or near densely populated areas such as schools, hospitals, markets and large enterprises, there should be no problem with popularity, although the store area is not large." , basically about 50 to 100 square meters, but it is more than enough to open a snack bar, and the rent is charged at one-third of the market price within five years. ”

"Hey! This is really not bad, Brother Zhou, tell me quickly, what other preferential conditions are there? Xiaoyu naturally knows that if this kind of low-rent shop is not for the city government, individuals will never be able to get it, and the rent is one-third of the market price, which has saved a lot of money.

The reason why the city government concentrated its stores in Yangpu and Hongkou districts should be to take into account the problem of these laid-off workers commuting to work.

"The second preferential condition is that all taxes and miscellaneous fees to be paid by these low-rent shops will be waived for two years!"

Xiao Yu's mouth immediately opened wide, and all of them were tax-free within two years? This is a good thing that is hard to find with a lantern, but I didn't expect the city government to give such preferential conditions.

Zhou Zhi glanced at Xiao Yu, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "Xiao Yu, just these two preferential conditions, the city attaches great importance to this matter, but unfortunately, it can't provide financial support, and these forty stores can't be split into zero rent, if you want to take on this project, you must eat all these forty stores, and you are responsible for the decoration, equipment purchase and other expenses of these forty stores, as well as personnel training and salary, how about Xiaoyu?" Do you have the guts to give it a try? ”

Xiao Yu's eyes stared at the bowl of stewed soft-shelled turtle soup in front of him, and his right index finger tapped the table in a rhythmic manner, but his thoughts had already flown thousands of miles away.

There are great opportunities in this matter, but it also contains great risks, if you take over this project, you will expand from two stores to 42 stores at once, it will naturally be a big leap, especially in Yangpu and Hongkou districts, it can be said that regional coverage has been formed.

Moreover, through this incident, you can also deepen the relationship with Zhou Zhi, and even get Mayor Zhou's other eyes, and take the line of Mayor Zhou, needless to say, the benefits to yourself are great. In addition, being able to help these laid-off workers get back to work on their own is also a good deed to accumulate merit.

However, the risk is also obvious, the investment of 40 stores, according to their previous experience, each store decoration and equipment procurement needs at least 100,000 yuan, so that the initial investment of 4 million yuan.

Although the rent for the first five years is one-third of the market price, based on the average rent of $4,000 per shop, the monthly rent of 40 shops is $160,000. Combined with the salaries of two or three hundred workers, the monthly wages alone are close to 450,000 yuan, calculated at a salary of 1,500 yuan per person.

If the business can't be done, not only will the 4 million yuan invested in advance be wasted, but the fixed expenses of more than 600,000 yuan per month will also overwhelm Xiaoyu, and the income of the two old stores will not be enough.

Zhou Zhi had obviously already calculated this account, so he asked Xiaoyu if he had the courage to take on this project.

"Pick up? Or don't pick up? A fierce ideological struggle unfolded in Xiao Yu's mind.

Just as he was hesitating, a pleasant prompt sound came, "The task is released, to help three hundred and fifty laid-off workers get re-employed, for a period of three months, and if they fail, 500,000 experience points will be deducted." ”

Xiao Yu really wanted to cry without tears, and secretly said in his heart, "What are you doing here?" ”

Come on! The matter has come to this point, there is only one way to go in front of Xiaoyu, this task must be accepted, and if you don't take it, you have to take it! Putting aside the senseless ideological struggle, Xiao Yu had to start analyzing the implementation plan of this project.

In terms of funds, Xiao Yu still has 10 million in Jia Jianguo and Qianjiang, although he doesn't expect these two people to earn ten times as much as they did last time, but there should be absolutely no problem with the guarantee.

Do the math, the three-month contract between himself and Jia Jianguo is almost over, Xiao Yu thought in his heart, after today, it is time to contact these two people.

For the snacks in his store, Xiao Yu has absolute confidence, his three successful stores are a good example, as long as the store can be opened smoothly, it can completely beat those foreign fast food and roadside stalls, the only thing that worries him is that these laid-off workers are employees of cotton spinning companies, and they were not engaged in the industry before, so it should be a lot more troublesome to train.

It seems that these forty stores can't set up so many varieties like Tianlin Food City, but should select a few ace snacks suitable for the nearby environment, do key sales, and then increase or decrease the variety of snacks according to the needs of customers in the future, so that the training will be much simpler.

After a while, Xiao Yu's mind had formed a basic framework for the future operation of these forty stores.

Zhou Zhi quietly looked at Xiao Yu from the side, and did not disturb Xiao Yu's thoughts, he admired this young man from the bottom of his heart, smart, studious, and diligent, and, in him, there is a sense of justice that many people lack today.

Because of this, he will introduce this project to Xiaoyu, if he takes over this project and successfully opens these forty stores, then there will be more opportunities waiting for him in the future.

Of course, the risk is also very large, which needs to see if Xiaoyu has the courage to meet the challenge, in many people's lives, often in a certain period of time, only a small step away from success, it depends on whether you have the courage to take this step.

The sound of Xiao Yu's index finger tapping on the table stopped abruptly, and Zhou Zhi's heart moved, he knew that Xiao Yu had made a decision.

Sure enough, Xiao Yu's eyes moved away from the bowl of soft-shelled turtle soup, and he let out a sigh of relief and said, "Brother Zhou, I have decided to take over this project!" ”

"Good! Big brother really didn't mistake you! Here, let's have a drink! Zhou Zhi happily slapped his thigh, raised his wine glass and drank it all.

Xiao Yu also smiled and took a big sip of the glass of wine, and said to Zhou Zhi, "However, Brother Zhou, I still have two small requests, I don't know, can you agree." ”

"Say! As long as I can do it, absolutely no problem! Zhou Zhi replied briskly.

"Number one, you can't just stuff people at once, I need to do interviews one by one, select people who have culinary experience and are willing to work hard, and I can tell you unequivocally that I will hire three hundred and fifty laid-off workers."

"That's great!" Zhou Zhi's face was full of joy, if Xiao Yu could help him solve the three hundred and fifty laid-off workers at one time, the remaining one hundred and fifty laid-off workers would no longer be a big problem.

Zhou Zhi said to Xiao Yu excitedly, "Xiao Yu, let me tell you, these laid-off workers are all female textile workers around the age of thirty to forty, basically all of them have cooking experience, and they have been working in a cotton spinning company for a long time, and it is definitely needless to say that they are hard-working." However, since you have to choose, I have no opinion. ”

Xiao Yu nodded and continued, "Second, after five years, can the contracts of these forty stores be renewed, I have invested so much money, I don't want to only do business for five years." ”

Zhou Zhile said, "This is no problem, most of the property rights of these shops are in the hands of government-related enterprises, as long as you want to renew the contract, it's just a matter of one sentence, when we sign the contract, we can sign another memorandum of intent, and write this point down, but although the rent after the renewal can give you some discounts, it will definitely not be as cheap as it is now." ”

"Good! Brother Zhou, I want to get the addresses of these forty stores as soon as possible, before opening the store, I want to do a preliminary investigation and study of the surrounding environment of these stores, in order to decide the business content of the snack bar, as well as the recruitment of laid-off workers, please contact the people of the cotton spinning company as soon as possible, and at that time, I will send someone to participate. ”

Zhou Zhi looked at Xiao Yu with some surprise, and his mouth snorted, "Drink, Xiao Yu, I can't see it, you really have a vigorous and resolute energy when you do things, look at your style, do you regard me as your secretary?" ”

Xiao Yu said with a smile, "Brother Zhou, where do I dare to call you, I don't want to complete the task you gave me as soon as possible!" I can assure you that within three months, I will be opening all 40 stores! ”

"Good boy! I'm just waiting for your words! Zhou Zhi was happy in his heart, and took another big sip of wine.

The two chatted while eating, the atmosphere was a little better than before, and when the wine was hot, Xiao Yu asked Zhou Zhi a question that had been pondering in his heart for a long time.

"Brother Zhou, do you remember the last time I called you and asked you about the Black Dragon Society? From the analysis of the meaning of your words, the backer behind Long Fei is not simple, it seems that even Mayor Zhou can't move him, can you tell me, who is Long Fei's backer? ”

Zhou Zhi was stunned for a moment, the chopsticks that wanted to pick up the vegetables stopped in mid-air, the expression on his face was very strange, as if he didn't expect Xiao Yu to suddenly ask this question, and after being stunned for a while, he put down the chopsticks, sighed and said, "Xiao Yu, I was afraid that you would suffer a loss that day, I want to warn you, don't think that the Black Dragon Society is just an ordinary underworld gang, and therefore underestimate the opponent, Long Fei's backer is so big, you can never imagine, since the relationship between the two of us is so familiar now, you call me Brother Zhou again, I won't hide it from you." , his backer is ......"

Zhou Zhi put his head to Xiao Yu's ear and said a word softly, Xiao Yu's mouth opened widely, and his heartbeat suddenly accelerated.
