Chapter 246 Song Xia's Call
"Let's go, I'll take you to lunch."
After drinking coffee, Chen Mo took Wang Yang directly to the staff restaurant.
As for why they didn't go out to eat.
Of course it's because there are star chefs in the restaurant. If you go out to eat, the kitchen can't compare to the staff restaurant unless you go to a star hotel.
And it's a waste of money.
Wang Yang followed behind Mr. Chen, and was quite curious about the food in the staff restaurant.
When the workshop was renovated before, he came to the workshop to check the quality of the decoration, and heard from the employees of the garment factory that the staff restaurant was very good, but the staff restaurant was not open to the public, so he didn't go in to experience it.
Unexpectedly,
Today Mr. Chen actually took him to the staff restaurant in person, which surprised him.
"Mr. Chen, the dishes are ready."
When a restaurant employee saw Mr. Chen coming in, he hurried to greet him.
Chen Mo nodded and followed the employee to a dining table. He had called Wang Maonian before coming.
Come to the dining table.
Wang Yang looked at the food on the table, and it was exactly as he heard.
The food was really very good.
There were six dishes in total, and each one looked delicious and appetizing.
At Mr. Chen's suggestion, he simply tasted it.
The dishes tasted better than those small restaurants he usually went to.
Mr. Chen's company was indeed different from the employees of other factories, and was really good to the employees below.
After lunch,
Wang Yang said goodbye and left directly, and Chen Mo went back to the office directly. He just received a call from the office and then received a call from Song Xia.
"What's the matter?"
After answering the phone, Chen Mo asked in confusion.
"Mr. Chen, I heard that the company ordered that all companies should take a holiday tomorrow?"
"Yes."
"But coffee shops belong to the catering industry. Isn't it too early to take a month off?"
Song Xia asked carefully on the phone.
Normal catering does not rest throughout the year, and the closer it is to the holiday, the busier it will be. Mr. Chen took a holiday so early at this time, completely giving up the huge opportunity during the New Year.
Moreover, only the cat cafe and maid cafe are currently profitable, but all the coffee shops are still losing money.
Wouldn't it be more loss-making if they took paid leave so early?
Listening to Song Xia's words, Chen Mo thought about it.
If he took paid leave for a month now, he could guarantee that he would not have any income for this month.
But what Song Xia said was indeed right. Since it was a catering industry, it was really unreasonable to take a holiday so early.
After thinking about it, he spoke lightly.
"The holiday is voluntary. The news of the holiday can be notified to each employee. Those who don't want to rest will be paid three times the daily salary starting from tomorrow."
Anyway, except for the cat cafe and maid cafe, all coffee shops are in a loss-making state.
If those employees go to work, he can pay twice the salary, which can consume more funds.
Now there are 15 coffee shops, and each store has 11 people including the store manager. He asked Song Xia to calculate before that the monthly salary of all employees is about 100,000.
15 stores, that is 1.5 million.
But this salary also includes various benefits for employees.
If triple salary is paid now, it will be 4.5 million!
"But Mr. Chen, if someone chooses to take a break, there won't be enough staff!"
Song Xia asked again. Now there are 10 employees in a store, working in two shifts.
Among them, employees in each shift have to take turns to rest. If employees voluntarily take a break, there won't be enough staff in the store.
"If an employee chooses to take a break, there won't be enough staff, so you can choose to close a store."
Chen Mo said without hesitation, but secretly thought in his heart that if the staff of the cat cafe and maid cafe took a break, it would be fine. At that time, if both coffee shops were closed, he would lose the income of two coffee shops.
After all, these two coffee shops are already in a hot state, and customers need to make reservations in advance every day.
So the current income of the two coffee shops is not low, and the total revenue is about 1 million per month.
"I know, Mr. Chen."
Nanhe Coffee Headquarters.
Song Xia hung up the phone.
She looked at the people in the office, who were all managers of various coffee shops.
After receiving the news of the holiday, she called these managers over.
"How is it, what did Mr. Chen say?"
Seeing Song Xia hang up the phone, Sudan asked quickly.
Nowadays, during the Chinese New Year, most people will take a holiday, which is the peak period for the store to receive traffic. As long as there are more people, their chances of promoting Nanhe Coffee will be much greater.
Not asking Nanhe Coffee to turn a profit during the Chinese New Year, but at least using the Spring Festival to promote the reputation of Nanhe Coffee.
But Mr. Chen took a month off during the Chinese New Year, which made her a little anxious.
So she discussed it with Song Xia, and then today's meeting was held.
Song Xia looked at Sudan's anxious eyes and spoke slowly.
"Mr. Chen said that employees can take breaks on their own accord, and those who don't want to take breaks will have their wages tripled. If too many people take breaks, some stores can be closed appropriately based on the number of people taking breaks."
Is that so!
Listening to Song Xia's answer, Sudan thought for a moment, and then breathed a sigh of relief.
If the employees were willing, she would have a way to keep most of them.
Song Xia didn't lower her voice when she spoke just now, so the other store managers in the meeting room also heard what Song Xia said, and they all started to discuss this content in a low voice.
After a while.
Sudan also discussed the content of the meeting with Song Xia, and then stood up and clapped his hands.
"Everyone, please be quiet. You all heard what Manager Song said just now."
"Taking a vacation is entirely voluntary. This is Mr. Chen's respect for his employees. It is also our luck to have such a good boss."
"However, as Mr. Chen's employees, we also have to do something for him."
Sudan paused here and slowly scanned all the store managers in the meeting room. Seeing that everyone was listening to him carefully, he continued to speak.
"Everyone knows the current situation of Nanhe Coffee. Except for Maid Coffee and Cat Coffee, which are profitable, the rest are in a loss-making state."
"Now there are 15 Nanhe Coffees in Jiangcheng City, and President Chen has ordered that five more coffee shops are already selecting locations. Once the site selection is completed, they will be immediately put into decoration."
"I say this not to show the development speed of Nanhe Coffee, but out of worry. After all, with the current situation of Nanhe Coffee, if there are five more coffee shops, President Chen will have five more loss-making stores."
"Although President Chen has other industry income, there will always be a limit to investment. Maybe 30 or 40 coffee shops are loss-making, President Chen will not care. But what about 50 or 100 loss-making stores?"
"Do you think President Chen will always invest in loss-making industries?"
