A black mass of people once again blocked the road at the entrance of the mall.
Although the number of people was much smaller than the past three days, it was only six in the morning!
Don't these people need to sleep?
"Mr. Stanley, you came at the right time. I was just about to call you to discuss it. There are too many customers queuing up now. Why don't we open the restaurant two hours earlier?”
As soon as he saw Zhang Mu, Qiu Zhongjie immediately went up to him and said,"
" When I arrived at 5:30, there were already many people queuing up. The scene was very chaotic. Fortunately, Old Chen arrived early. We contacted some staff members to come to work early. Otherwise, we really wouldn't know what to do…"
"How many staff members are coming to work now?”Zhang Mu asked.
"More than a dozen came, and we've contacted another ten or so. They're on their way.”Chen Yizhou immediately replied.
"There are only 20 to 30 people. That's too few!”
Zhang Mu shook his head and arranged,"
"There are only so many staff members. It's impossible to handle all of them. More importantly, the cashier hasn't arrived yet. It's impossible to open now.”
"Immediately think of all ways to inform all the cashiers to start work immediately. Inform the other employees who can be notified, and leave those who can't be notified first.”
"At the same time, contact the express delivery company. Many of their employees live together. Once the cashier is in place and the other employees are not enough, send some people from the express delivery company to replace them!”
"Understood, Chairman Zhang." The two of them immediately replied.
Chen Yizhou used to be in Suda and was very familiar with it. After hearing Zhang Mu's arrangements, he immediately got someone to go to the family courtyard to get him.
There were more than 5,000 employees at the express delivery company. They were all brought over from several bankrupt state-owned enterprises. Many of them were still living in the family buildings of state-owned enterprises.
After all, although some state-owned enterprises had gone bankrupt, they had once been prosperous. There were also a few who developed family homes.
Thinking of this, Chen Yizhou immediately asked the staff at the scene if the employees of Red Flag Supermarket all lived together. If so, he would inform them to come earlier.
Whether it was Zhang Mu, Chen Yizhou, or Qiu Zhongjie, none of them had expected that there would be so many people lining up so early to open on Tuesday.
Initially, he thought that the opening time at eight o'clock would be just right. He just had to get the employees to arrive at seven-thirty. However, looking at the current situation, who knew how many more people would be added in another hour or so? Would there be a riot?
"When are you opening? There are so many of us here to line up. Can't we open earlier?”
"Yeah, it's not like we're just going in to enjoy the air-conditioning and not buy anything. How can we not let people in?”
"I'm still waiting to go home and send my child to school after buying the vegetables. If you don't open the door, we won't buy anymore!”
Sure enough, when the people queuing at the door saw that it seemed to be the supermarket's leader coming over, they immediately began to react.
At first, Zhang Mu could still hear a few people's words clearly. However, as more and more people spoke, the noise became louder and louder. Soon, it became a buzzing sound.
Seeing this, Qiu Zhongjie immediately stood on the table with a loudspeaker and said,
"Everyone, don't be anxious, don't be anxious! Our cashier will be here soon. The supermarket will open in a while!”
Qiu Zhongjie explained, but everyone did not take it to heart. Instead, when they saw someone from the supermarket respond, their opinions became even stronger. It was like a large-scale quarrel.
Faced with this situation, Zhang Mu had no choice. After all, the cashier was not in place. Even if he opened the door to let everyone in, who would collect the money after everyone bought the things?
At this moment, a group of more than ten people walked towards the entrance of Red Flag Supermarket. If that was the case, it was nothing in front of the thousands of customers queuing up.
However, there were a few reporters carrying guns and cannons beside these people, instantly attracting the attention of the vast majority of people.
"Ah, the one walking on the left seems to be Deputy Chief Lu. He even went to our factory for an inspection a few days ago!”
Someone shouted first, and someone else immediately followed,
" I know the second person from the right. He seems to be the director of Shanghai's Commerce Bureau…"
"The one walking in the middle is the big leader, the chief of our Magic City!”
Zhang Mu also noticed these people at the first moment, especially his old acquaintance Lu Song. He raised his hand to signal to him from afar, and Zhang Mu immediately went up to greet him.
"Welcome, leaders, to our Red Flag Supermarket for an inspection..."
"Hahaha, it's not really an inspection. It's just that everyone has nothing to do and came to take a look.”
Lu Song was the most familiar with Zhang Mu, so he replied,"
"Boss Zhang, let me introduce you. This is…This is…"
Because it was a public place, and there was also his own leader following him, Lu Song could not keep calling him " Little Mu ". After all, he had to avoid arousing suspicion.
Zhang Mu knew that every time Lu Song introduced someone, Zhang Mu would go up and shake hands with them.
These people could be said to be the most powerful people in the Shanghai government. There were only benefits and no disadvantages to befriending them.
Moreover, many of them treated Zhang Mu very well. A few of them had even asked Zhang Mu to take in a group of employees through Lu Song a few days ago. They all owed Zhang Mu a favor.
This was only one aspect. On the other hand, the opening of a supermarket with an area of more than 10,000 square meters was also very important to the government.
After all, Walmart had taken over the new world of supermarket traffic in Shanghai. Although Carrefour did not make much of a move, it would enter the Shanghai market sooner or later.
Although Lianhua was developing well, they were all small stores and could not become a brand.
Although Red Flag Supermarket only had one store, it was bigger than Walmart. It was also located on Nanjing Road. In the future, it would be the face of Shanghai's local supermarkets!
"Boss Zhang, you're welcome. We just dropped by on the way to work. I didn't expect so many people to queue up at only six o'clock.”
Shi Chang laughed and said,
"Hmm, it looks good. I guess the supermarket will be very busy later, so we won't waste any more time here. As a local company in Shanghai, if you encounter any problems in the future, feel free to tell the government.”
" After all, the Shanghai government has many supportive policies for local enterprises…"
Since the chief had spoken, the leaders of the surrounding departments also gave their guarantees.
After a round of formalities, Zhang Mu sent everyone away. At this time, more than half of the employees were in place, and the cashier should be enough. Zhang Mu waved his hand and said,
"Open for business!"
Some customers had been queuing for about an hour. When they saw that the supermarket was finally open, they immediately squeezed forward with all their might, shouting wildly,
"Howl, quickly go in and snatch the things!!”
