At first, Zhang Mu wanted to rent a house near the university. After all, his main job was still a student, and he still had to go to school occasionally.
It would be much more convenient if they lived near the school. If there was nothing going on at the company, they wouldn't have to go back and forth between the two places.
However, after walking around the university town for the entire afternoon, he did not find any houses that caught Zhang Mu's eye. It was either too remote or too dilapidated!
The university town itself was relatively remote. It was only because of the many university students that it gradually developed. Although it looked lively, the houses were very old.
Zhang Mu looked at a few houses that were ready to be sold. They were all old houses from the 1960s and 1970s. They had been built for 20 to 30 years. Most of them were only one-story houses, and the houses were a little dark and damp.
To put it bluntly, the houses here couldn't even compare to the dormitories in the school. If they moved out of the dormitory and lived in such a house, there would be no benefit other than some free space.
There were definitely many couples in love who chose such a house, but the nearby conditions did not meet Zhang Mu's needs.
It wasn't that there weren't any real estate developers in Shanghai, but at this stage, none of the developers would choose a place near the university town. Their target was a place closer to the commercial street and the city center.
Seeing that it was almost six o'clock, it was too late to go to the city center to look at houses. Zhang Mu temporarily put this matter aside and asked Li Sen to drive him to the banquet.
Zheng Jinhai attached great importance to this dinner. Not only did he book a room in the most luxurious hotel in Shanghai, but he also found a few of his business friends to accompany him.
When Zhang Mu arrived at the hotel, Zheng Jinhai was chatting with a few people at the entrance of the hotel. When he saw Zhang Mu, he immediately greeted him,
"Brother Zhang, you're here. Let me introduce you. This is Old Liu, who makes glass. This is Old Zheng, who makes drinks. He's also from my family. This is..."
"Hahaha, I've been listening to Boss Zhang's deeds for the past few days. Today, I saw that he's indeed extraordinary!”
"Boss Zhang has been a popular person in the business world of Shanghai recently. I've long wanted to meet Boss Zhang. Today, with Old Zheng pulling the strings, my wish has finally come true!”
"Boss Zhang…"
The few business friends that Zheng Jinhai called over to accompany him were not young. The youngest was almost forty years old, and some were even twice as old as Zhang Mu.
But to Zhang Mu, everyone was very polite. Not to mention other things, just in terms of earning ability, no one dared to say that they could beat Zhang Mu.
Therefore, he had to be polite.
"Hahaha, you guys are too kind. You're all seniors, so I should be the one learning from you. Let's not stand at the door. Let's go in and have a good chat…"
……
In Lu Song's office in the Shanghai Municipal Party Committee's compound, a person was sitting opposite Lu Song and talking about something.
"Old Lu, I had no choice but to come and ask for your help. You know that the market is not doing well now. The state-owned enterprises are facing major reforms.”
"In the past, it was fine. Everyone's life was not good, and they could only grit their teeth and endure. But now that they saw that the employees of the plastic factory and the canning factory had found such good jobs, many of them were unwilling.”
"Well, yesterday afternoon, the employees of the Southern Suburbs Food Factory gathered to protest and demanded that the wages owed to them be paid immediately. If the factory really can't do it, they asked to be transferred to another factory.”
" It's fine if that's the case, but the problem is that these workers are now shouting,'We don't ask for a work-life buyout, we just want a job that can support our family'!”
"Listen to what you've said. Isn't it clear enough what these workers are thinking?”
As mentioned before, express delivery was famous in Shanghai Conquest. Zhang Mu was also well-known in Shanghai's merchant circles.
At the same time, many people in the circle of employees of state-owned enterprises in Shanghai had heard of the name of Quick Delivery.
This was because all the employees recruited by Suda Express Delivery were transferred from a few closed state-owned enterprises.
Before this, many companies had gone bankrupt, and some of the factory employees had been assigned to other factories, while some had chosen to buy out their seniority to start other small businesses.
However, there had never been a precedent where most of the factory workers had been taken in by private companies. Therefore, ever since they found out that Su Da Kuai had taken in so many laid-off workers, many people began to pay attention to it.
Of course, most of them were employees who worked in factories that did not have good returns. Their situation was very awkward.
Some factories hadn't been paid for half a year or even longer.
He would resign. After working for so many years and having an iron rice bowl, it would be a pity to lose it. He did not know what he would do if he resigned.
After all, many private companies were not doing well now. Instead of fighting for jobs with others in the past, they might as well wait and see what Conquest had to say.
However, the popularity of express delivery allowed many people to see a new way out.
Although Suda Express Delivery wasn't a state-owned enterprise and wouldn't have an iron rice bowl, it couldn't stop the high salary. It was said that as long as one worked hard, one could earn 1,000 yuan or more a month!
Moreover, the employees who went to Suda Express Delivery were all connected by Conqueror. As the saying went,"Don't look at the monk's face but look at the Buddha's face." With Conqueror taking the lead, at least working in Suda wouldn't be as insecure as working in ordinary private companies.
Therefore, many employees of enterprises, especially those who had not been able to pay their salaries for a long time and were already in name only, were immediately unhappy.
"Old Xu, I can understand what you're saying. I also know that they want to send jobs to Su Da Express.”
Looking at the vice chief who had been giving him some trouble, Lu Song smiled and said,
"But you also know that Zhang Mu has already helped Conquest solve the problem of re-employment for 2,000 people. If you want me to plead for him now, I don't have the face to do so!”
