Lin'an in November is not much warmer than Huajing.
But there is one thing: Lin'an does not have such strong winds blowing all day long.
Since the 1950s, Huajing has begun to plant various trees on its edges to withstand wind and sandstorms, etc. However, it has not been of much use.
In 2020, when there are still strong winds in spring and autumn, the sand coming down from the Mongolian Plateau will still "fly into the homes of ordinary people."
Lin'an is different.
Since its vigorous development by Bai Juyi in the Tang Dynasty and Su Dongpo in the Song Dynasty, it has become a paradise on earth.
If Lin'an is not ranked among the top five cities in China's list of the most livable cities, then this list will be meaningless.
Therefore, the streets of Lin'an are still very lively in November.
The development of the economy, the continuous rise of e-commerce, and the continuous development of various surrounding small and micro enterprises have made Lin'an full of vitality.
However, this city is still crowded with people running for life.
Especially young people, who were later called social animals, received a salary of 2,000-3,000 per month, rent for housing, water and electricity, telephone and commuting fees, etc., and basically had nothing left.
What is said on TV is that on weekends, these young people will call friends and go out to eat, drink and have fun. This is completely divorced from real life.
The real situation is that basically young people who have been employed for less than 5 years stay at home on weekends.
On the one hand, I have no money to go out for fun, and on the other hand, I work very hard and I can take a break on weekends.
As for talking about friends and other things, it is impossible to talk about it.
This is also an important reason why our country’s fertility rate continues to decline.
How can you get married and have children if you don’t even have friends
All right.
Come back to the present.
As something necessary to maintain body functions, food is definitely indispensable.
Now after experiencing the super war between Meituan and Ele.me, major food delivery platforms have entered a stable period.
Those 1-cent lunches have long been out of sight.
Generally speaking, a meal costing 20 yuan is definitely not considered a luxury.
If you add another cup of milk tea, 30 yuan is not much, right
Three meals a day, if they are all like this, is almost 100 yuan.
In this way, eating alone costs 3,000 yuan a month. Even if weekends and breakfast are excluded, 2,000 yuan is still necessary.
2,000 yuan in catering expenses is simply unimaginable for new employees.
They can't save on other aspects, so they have to save on food.
For example, a steamed bun and a cup of soy milk in the morning will solve the problem, a bowl of noodles costing 8 yuan for lunch will solve the problem, and some egg pie in the evening will be enough... and so on.
Of course, it is impossible to live such a life every day, otherwise the work would be boring enough, there would be no fun in eating, and it would be easy to fall into depression.
I don’t know how it is in other places, but the social workers in Lin’an still have ways to improve their lives.
Their solution was to queue up at the entrance of Yongxing Supermarket to buy hot dogs.
Unlike the Costco hot dogs in the previous life, which were always the same, the hot dogs made by Yongxing Supermarket in Lin'an have developed into 10 flavors of sausages, 20 kinds of side dishes, and more than 30 flavors of sauces.
For example, sausages come in black pepper, spicy, five-spice, Cantonese, garlic... and other flavors.
The side dishes also change according to the seasons, including pickles, lettuce, shredded eggs, shredded potatoes, tomatoes... etc.
The sauces are even richer, such as mayonnaise, yogurt, Laoganma, meat sauce, seafood sauce...etc.
With so many combinations, you can eat it every day without having to repeat it for a month.
Although it is generally just bread with sausages, it contains three types of vegetables, meat, fruits and vegetables, which is much more nutritious than many junk foods.
Oh, yes, there are also drinks.
Because of the cooperation between Shen Huan and Pepsi-Cola, Zhang Duocai chose Pepsi-Cola as a partner. Each hot dog set also includes a medium cup of Pepsi-Cola, with four flavors to choose from.
Although carbonated drinks may have bad effects on the body, sugar is one of the sources of happiness for humans, and young people like to drink them.
And how much does it cost for such a rich hot dog set? Did the price increase after opening
No!
No price increase.
Still 2 yuan.
With these 2 yuan, you can't go to other fast food restaurants to buy a medium Coke, let alone a hot dog.
The normal market price should be 10 yuan for a set meal.
But Yongxing Supermarket always charges 2 yuan, and it is guaranteed to be available anytime and anywhere, which is very valuable.
Uncle Feng once said that it is not difficult for a person to do a good deed, but the difficult thing is to do good deeds throughout his life.
Similarly, it is not difficult to open a business without raising prices, but it is too difficult to not raise prices all the time.
Basically, it’s a rhythm of selling one and losing one.
The five stores in Lin'an City sell a total of at least 100,000 hot dog sets every day. How much do you think they will lose
This does not include the labor costs of at least 200 people working at the hot dog window in each store.
Of course, to be able to sell so much, it’s definitely impossible for everyone to listen to their requests and do it slowly.
Generally speaking, there are 20 vending machines in the queue area of Yongxing Supermarket. Everyone selects the flavor they want on them in advance, and after paying 2 yuan, they take the meal ticket. Wait.
This reduces communication time and allows the waiter to spend more time on production.
On the other hand, during the peak dining periods of the morning, lunch and evening, the vending machine in the hot dog window will remind you which hot dogs have been matched with flavors and can be picked up within 10 minutes. If you mix the hot dogs yourself, you may Have to wait half an hour.
Of course, many people choose the fixed configuration of hot dogs that are already paired, which saves a lot of time.
But despite this, more than 60 people are busy in each shift at the hot dog window. The business hours from 6 a.m. to 10 p.m. must be divided into three shifts, otherwise no employees can stand it. high-intensity work.
Oh, by the way, although it only opens at 6 a.m., you usually need to enter the workroom at 4 a.m. to make various preparations.
We must start making breakfast in advance at 5 o'clock to prepare for the breakfast peak period when time is most urgent - people don't have much time and want to buy a hot dog set as soon as possible and go to work by bus or subway early.
And after closing at 10 o'clock, not only is it often delayed due to "last minute orders", but it also takes at least 2 hours to do various tidying up and cleaning, as well as preparations for tomorrow's business.
So the working time of three shifts is actually 20 hours.
An average shift lasts 7 hours. Such high-intensity work cannot be considered easy.
If it weren't for the high salary and benefits provided by Yongxing Supermarket, as well as the great security, there might be a new group of people here every day.
But it is also natural that the hot dog window is the department with the highest turnover rate in Yongxing Supermarket.
Employees generally work here for no more than half a year.
Although you can get a salary of at least 6,000 plus bonuses and subsidies here, not everyone can persist in this kind of ultra-high-intensity assembly line work.
It was also during the summer vacation that Shen Huan helped think of a way.
The boy asked Yongxing Supermarket to issue an announcement that all employees who have worked at the hot dog window for more than one year can be transferred to work in the store, and they are guaranteed to sign a work contract of more than 10 years, ensuring that you can get a good salary and salary in Lin'an. , and the work is not that hard.
With such a cake waiting in front, the employee turnover rate has only increased from an average of one month to half a year.
I believe that as time goes by, someone will persevere.
Of course, Yongxing Supermarket will not suffer. Employees who have been trained at the hot dog window, and are employees who can persevere, are they not good at it
They are definitely very helpful and excellent employees who work hard and never complain!
