Chapter 2398
There Will Be No Next Time
The original large market was prepared with only one floor and two hundred small stalls.
Just like many clothing wholesale markets in later generations, a stall was set up by separating the stalls with a cloth curtain.
But that's definitely not possible now.
Because of the importance attached to it by higher authorities, the CNC college almost went bankrupt.
Damn, every single stall inside had to be separated by brick walls.
And it's not one layer, but three layers.
The first floor is occupied by individual vendors, while the second and third floors are the 'flagship stores' of various factories.
The city government has asked Ho Yu-chu countless times whether he wants to attract investment.
He Yuzhu gritted his teeth and refused the city government's "kind offer".
He told the city government that the city investment company could participate in the second and third phases of the project.
But I'll skip the first one.
He was afraid that things would be difficult to settle accounts in the future.
He planned to operate the first phase of the project as the property of the CNC college.
All ownership must belong entirely to the School of CNC.
If we bring in an investor at this time...
From now on, we'll have plenty of room for argument.
As for the second and third phases, although it's still uncertain, he has limited the cooperation to urban investment companies.
That company still had some connection to him; at least before he died, it shouldn't cause any trouble for the CNC Academy.
It's laughable that He Yuzhu is now busy with his posthumous fame.
But there's nothing we can do; there aren't many rules for things these days.
The accounts will never be clear in the future.
Putting aside everything else, the land for the construction of the CNC academy was basically obtained for free.
If this area is to be demolished and rebuilt in the future, its value will be in the hundreds of millions.
With so much money involved, what if the organizations involved try to play a little trick on the CNC institute?
The successor will definitely pin the blame on him.
"Take your time, don't rush. You're already much better off than our factory was!" Old Lei sighed after hearing He Yuzhu's words.
He Yuzhu couldn't help but laugh. He raised his eyebrows and said, "If the steel mill were so good, would a big factory director like you be so eager to come here?"
Old Lei shook his head with a wry smile.
Even if he had no official position, he was still the head of a factory with tens of thousands of employees.
Why would they stand here eating sand and drinking wind for the sake of the development of a tertiary industry company?
To be frank, there was nothing that could be done about him coming here.
There are just too many young people in the factory.
If we don't find a proper place to settle him, those old workers might just smash up his house.
This is the current state of development of collective enterprises.
There are now many second-generation employees in steel rolling mills who have taken over their jobs.
People like Ma San are a good example; Gou Dan is successful because he found a job on his own.
Otherwise, Gou Dan would definitely take over Ma San's fitter position and continue to work at the steel mill.
One after another, it seems there are no problems.
But the key issue is that many workers' families do not have only one son.
The eldest brother has made arrangements, but what about the second, third, or fifth brother?
In the past, we could say we would be assigned to the countryside.
But now, young people from the countryside are all heading to the city.
If the old workers at the steel rolling mill send their children back to the countryside, how will they survive?
Going to university is a way out, but how many students can excel academically?
Some went out to do business, but they were still a minority.
So those old workers became shameless, squatting outside the homes of various factory leaders every day, hoping to find some job for their children.
In this way, the tertiary industries of the steel rolling mill became particularly important. If a small job could be found, dozens of young people could be placed there to work for a while.
This isn't about making money anymore; it's about giving those veteran workers an explanation, and also about letting Lao Lei and the others have a few days of peace.
"...This year, four or five hundred people have been transferred to the main factory."
In the workshop, a master craftsman was leading four or five apprentices who knew nothing about the business.
Thus, only a very small number of lucky individuals are able to get in.
Old He, you really should go and take a look at those workers' living areas.
"The lives of those old workers..." Old Lei said with a compassionate expression.
"Stop, stop, stop..." He Yuzhu interrupted Lao Lei's rant, giving the girl a suspicious look.
I have a feeling this guy's next words are definitely not going to be anything good.
He Yuzhu came to the construction site today at Lao Lei's invitation.
According to Lao Lei, he was familiar with the leaders of those big construction companies and asked him to put in a good word for them.
Let those big companies give them some small jobs.
Whether it works or not, He Yuzhu just needs to come over and put in a good word.
He didn't need to make any promises, so he came.
But Lao Lei's performance was just too exaggerated.
He Yuzhu felt that this wasn't aimed at those big construction companies, but rather at him.
He Yuzhu stared blankly at Lao Lei without saying a word, while Lao Lei's eyes darted around, not daring to meet He Yuzhu's gaze.
After a long while, Lao Lei gave He Yuzhu an embarrassed smile, scratched his head, and said, "Lao He, you have to wait until I finish my performance!"
That one sentence almost made He Yuzhu burst out laughing.
He Yuzhu held up one finger and said, "One hundred, and they have to meet our requirements."
Upon hearing this, Lao Lei almost rushed over to give He Yuzhu a hug.
"Is it really necessary to go through all this trouble?"
Let alone my background in a steel rolling mill, there's the connection between us.
"If you ask, I can make sure you leave empty-handed." Although He Yuzhu agreed to help, he still made a disdainful remark.
It was obvious that Lao Lei was eyeing the recruitment quota in his hands.
Unlike a steel rolling mill, a CNC college will definitely need to hire people for its new business.
And the number of people to be recruited will not be small.
Putting aside other things, the electronic watch factory, as well as the security, cleaning, and market management of the large market, require a large number of people.
There are also assembly teams from door manufacturing plants.
These resources can certainly not be used up by the CNC Institute alone.
We will definitely need to recruit workers from outside.
These recruitment positions are open to anyone, regardless of who gets them.
He Yuzhu didn't care about giving this favor to the steel rolling mill.
He has been guiding the family members of the faculty and staff of the School of CNC to develop in the direction of doing business.
He really doesn't care about jobs that only pay a fixed salary.
"Old He, you're rich and powerful, so you don't care."
But for our steel rolling mill, creating one hundred jobs is equivalent to helping one hundred families in need!
Besides, the entire city of Beijing knows about the treatment you receive here.
If I go back and talk to the union, those workers might just start treating you like royalty.
"You really have a soft spot for our steel rolling mill!" Old Lei's flattery flowed like it was free.
He Yuzhu waved his hand repeatedly and replied, "Alright, alright, it's no big deal."
As long as someone is of good character and hardworking, I will treat them equally.
However, Lao Lei, we've already agreed that there won't be a next time.
The streets and the city government are all watching with bated breath…” (End of Chapter)
