Chapter 161: Why Are You Installing So Many Refrigerators?

“Then let me take you to have a look, I hope Brother Yang won’t be too surprised later.”

Wu Yu led Zhao Yang and three machine maintenance technicians straight to the Employee Dormitory. There were four of them in total, so they could just split into two rooms. He was eager to see the expression on Zhao Yang’s face when he saw the Employee Dormitory’s setup.

As for the workers unloading the machines, after they finished, they would have a meal at the Canteen and then return to the factory with the truck, not staying overnight.

Soon, they arrived at the Employee Dormitory.

Wu Yu took Zhao Yang and the others to two empty rooms and casually opened the door to one of them.

“Brother Yang, this is our Employee Dormitory. What do you think?”

Wu Yu stepped aside, smiling as he looked at Zhao Yang.

Zhao Yang curiously walked into the Employee Dormitory, and after seeing the interior layout, he was completely stunned.

A television, air conditioner, and a private bathroom—the bathroom door was open, and he could already see the washing machine and water heater inside.

What kind of dormitory is this? It’s more like a hotel’s standard room!

After a long moment, he snapped out of it and turned to Wu Yu.

“This dormitory must be where your company’s leaders stay, right?”

“Impossible. The entire dormitory building is set up like this.”

Seeing Zhao Yang’s incredulous expression, Wu Yu felt a sense of satisfaction. When he visited the mechanical factory earlier, Zhao Yang had been boasting about how great their company was, so today he was going to show him what a real good company looked like.

“Alright, the next room is also empty. The four of you can just split up. The bedding is all new, so don’t worry about using it.”

Wu Yu took a deep breath and then pointed to one of the technicians to share a room with him, while the other two would share another.

After they sorted out the rooms, they placed their tools in the dormitories temporarily. After the machines were fully unloaded, they could take the tools and begin debugging.

“Supervisor Zhao, this Employee Dormitory is indeed better than our dorms. Their boss really knows how to spend money.”

One of the maintenance technicians whispered this after putting his tools away.

Although it was a low whisper, the room was small, so Wu Yu heard it clearly. Seeing that the tools were all put away, he smiled and spoke.

“Let’s go, I’ll take you to the Canteen to eat.”

When they arrived at the company’s Canteen, Zhao Yang felt a rush of warm air as soon as he stepped in, momentarily stunned.

He looked up at the ceiling, and instead of seeing a ceiling fan like in their company’s Canteen, he saw central air conditioning.

This…

“Brother Yang, come inside.”

Wu Yu smiled and reminded Zhao Yang, who was still in a daze.

Zhao Yang snapped out of it and followed Wu Yu. His eyes scanned the restaurant’s layout, but when he saw the many refrigerators around, he was puzzled. Why were there so many refrigerators in a Canteen? Wasn’t that a waste?

Curious, he walked up to Wu Yu and asked,

“Wu Yu, why does your Canteen have so many refrigerators?”

“Oh, those refrigerators are for various drinks, but our President Chen thinks it’s too crowded for everyone to go to one fridge for drinks, so he added a few more refrigerators around the dining area.”

“Brother Yang, feel free to grab whatever you want. It’s all free.”

Wu Yu explained.

They reached the serving counter, where the kitchen had already prepared the food.

“Brother Yang, the trays are in the disinfection cabinet, and the dishes are on the counter. You can pick whatever you want.”

Zhao Yang took a tray according to Wu Yu’s instructions and walked over to the counter. When he saw the dishes, he was stunned again.

Braised pork knuckles, oil-braised shrimp, sweet and sour ribs… a total of six dishes.

“How much does this cost per serving?”

Zhao Yang swallowed, turning to Wu Yu.

It must be expensive, right?

“Cost per serving? Our Canteen is free. Brother Yang, don’t worry about it. Just make sure you don’t waste any.”

Wu Yu said proudly. This was his pride as an employee of the Clothing Factory.

It’s free?

Zhao Yang and the three maintenance technicians behind him all stared with their mouths open. Such good meals and they don’t cost anything?

After getting their food, they sat down at the table.

Zhao Yang couldn’t help but think back to when Wu Yu came to their mechanical factory for training and spoke so highly of how great their factory was. Now, it felt like a slap to his face.

After this comparison, he realized that his own mechanical factory couldn’t even compete with this Clothing Factory. Aside from the much larger size of their site, everything else was incomparable.

…

At the Clothing Factory office,

“President Chen, the renovation company has sent a message. The Office Building and Coffee Shop will both be completed in three days.”

Shen Rou stood in front of the desk, giving her work report for the day.

Three days until it’s all completed?

Chen Mo nodded when he heard this.

“Okay, I got it. Notify the employees working from home that they can come back to the office in three days.”

“Also, find a good health check-up agency, book an appointment, and organize the company’s employees for their health check-ups. We’ll need to organize this once every quarter. Coordinate with Jiang Cheng and Wang Maonian from the Canteen to make sure everything is ready.”

“Understood, President Chen.”

Shen Rou quickly returned to her workstation and got busy.

As she returned to her desk, Chen Mo was about to go check on the new workshop and the machines, but his phone suddenly rang.

He glanced at the caller ID.

It was Song Xia.

It had been about a month since Song Xia went for training, and the training was probably coming to an end.

The Coffee Shop would also be completed in three days, so when she returned, they could begin setting it up for operation.

Hmm!

Another money-losing venture was about to begin.

He answered the call, and Song Xia’s voice came through.

“President Chen, I’ve inquired about it here. Since we’re opening a high-end Coffee Shop, the requirements for the coffee machines and other equipment are very high, and the prices are quite expensive. I’ve listed a few procurement options, each with different prices, and I’ve already sent the details to your email in a table format. Please take a look and decide which option is better.”

“Alright!”

Chen Mo hung up the phone and immediately opened his email.

…

In Beijing,

Barista Training School,

Song Xia hung up the phone and looked up at Su Dan.

“Teacher Su, I’ve already sent the procurement table to our boss, we should hear back soon.”

“Do you think your boss will really approve it?”

Su Dan asked with some concern.

The procurement options she provided were all configured according to the most standard requirements for a high-end Coffee Shop. Although there were some differences in price, the lowest option would still require a budget of over 500,000.

The highest option had a budget of over 800,000.
