Chapter 133 Gifts
Chapter 133 Gifts (Additional Update)
The second day of New Year’s Day.
The coastal town of Magong slowly wakes up in the morning light.
The sky was just beginning to turn pale, and a soft mist enveloped the entire town like a veil, adding a touch of mystery to it.
Several pickup trucks passed slowly along Magong Street.
At this time, the streets gradually became lively.
The roadside breakfast shop is steaming hot. The owner skillfully makes special delicacies such as rice rolls and porridge. The aroma is everywhere, attracting early risers.
People riding electric scooters and motorcycles shuttled through the street, and the sounds of bike bells and greetings intertwined, filling the street with the atmosphere of the city.
Jiang Miao watched all this silently through the bulletproof car window.
After a while, the convoy left Magong Town.
The mountains in the distance are looming in the morning mist, like a distant view in an ink painting, hazy and charming.
At the foot of the mountain, there are neatly arranged rice fields and large, sparkling fish ponds. Many of the harvested rice fields have been planted with new varieties of soybeans provided by Shanghai Lufeng Company. The wild grass on the roadside is covered with dew, sparkling in the faint morning light.
The sun gradually rose, and the golden sunlight penetrated the mist, sprinkling on every corner of the town, bringing a touch of warmth to this winter morning.
Passing by Yancheng Breeding Farm, Yandunshan Breeding Farm, Yandunshan Fish Ball Factory, Yandunshan Feed Factory No. 1, and Yandunshan Feed Factory No. 2.
The convoy did not stop. Along the way, it encountered an endless stream of tricycles, some loaded with Egyptian catfish, some carrying large carts of fresh duckweed and pine needles.
"This road is already overloaded." Jiang Miao sighed, then turned around and ordered, "Zixuan, notify President Jiang at noon and ask him to contact the town government. The company plans to subsidize the town government to widen Magong Avenue from the original 2 lanes to 6 lanes, specifically from the town government to the intersection of the company's new headquarters in Xinxiang."
"Yes." Li Zixuan nodded slightly as he took notes.
This section of highway currently consists of two lanes, and is already somewhat overwhelmed by the increasingly busy business.
In fact, this section of highway is not long, only about 3.7 kilometers. The comprehensive cost per kilometer of a six-lane asphalt road is about 1500 to 3000 million yuan, and 3.7 kilometers costs at most million yuan.
Passing by Xinxiang gas station.
Jiang Miao then saw the Dongtian employee quarters and Xiaonanshan headquarters building in the distance.
Both projects started construction in September. Currently, two levels of underground parking lots and related civil air defense projects have been completed, and construction of the ground portion is currently underway.
The headquarters building of Hailufeng Company is, to be precise, the first phase of the project. It only plans to build a 10-story office building covering an area of 20 acres, and the remaining nearly acres of land is used as a reserve.
The eastern section of Yandun Mountain behind the Xiaonanshan headquarters is also undergoing terrace transformation. Currently, most of the mountain has been flattened, and all the rocks excavated and blasted are used as building materials for the headquarters and employee community.
The employee community opposite the headquarters building was planned to cover only 150 mu in the first phase, of which 50 mu were for buildings and 100 mu for passages, green belts and sports fields.
The first phase of the staff community plans to build 50 nine-story buildings, each with two elevators and six households. Each house is a standard 9 square meters and has no common area.
That is to say, a total of 2700 houses are planned to be built in the first phase.
This already exceeds the current number of employees of Hailufeng Company, but it will definitely be full in the future.
After all, the number of employees at Hailufeng Company's headquarters and in Magong Town has exceeded 600. If the employees in Hongcao Town and Meilong Town are included, the total number is almost .
Especially in the urban area, where there are more than 11 mu of durian plantations, people are needed for every mu, so a total of about people are needed for more than mu.
Combined with the continuous expansion of other industries, the number of employees of Hailufeng Company near the urban area of Shanmei is estimated to exceed 2,000 next year.
For example, he had promised to provide a house to each of the dozen bodyguards, and this must be implemented in the first phase.
These bodyguards are the key to protecting him and his family. Jiang Miao is not the kind of person who wants the horse to run without letting it eat grass.
It is often easier to win people's hearts by talking about interests first and then feelings.
You only talk about feelings, not interests, and you still want others to protect you from knives and bullets? Maybe you drank too much horse urine.
Only after you arrange for the families of these bodyguards can they work for you with peace of mind.
After stopping outside the construction site for more than ten minutes, Jiang Miao used the identification panel to observe and found no quality problems before letting the driver continue.
One month after the construction started, Jiang Miao took time out to come and inspect.
The next day, the construction contracting company received an 86-page rectification notice, which frightened the company's boss so much that he came to apologize in person. Jiang Miao said that either he should make the rectifications honestly or pack up and leave.
He gave the other party enough profit from these two projects, but he still wanted to fool him. He is simply greedy.
After he pointed out all the problems, the construction contracting company became honest.
Including the construction company that contracted the Zhuzaishan Reservoir comprehensive project, they were also severely dealt a heavy blow by Jiang Miao.
If we don't give these guys this chance, they will still think that Hailufeng Company is a rookie.
The pickup truck headed north along the road.
When the pickup truck is driving on the road in Hongcao Town, the first thing that catches your eye is the lush trees on both sides of the road.
Several tall eucalyptus trees stood upright, their slender leaves swaying gently in the breeze, making a rustling sound.
The sunlight shines through the gaps in the leaves, casting tiny golden spots, like a flowing painting of light and shadow.
Before they knew it, Jiang Miao and his group arrived at their destination.
Hongcao Town, Xihe Village.
At the foot of the mountain on the west side of Xihe Village, there is a large smart greenhouse with the roof covered with solar panels. Nearly 1000 acres of solar panels are laid on the roof of this 800-acre smart greenhouse, and a large battery room is also built on one side.
Seeing him coming, Zhang Chengdong, who was currently in charge of the tissue culture work, immediately came over to greet him: "Boss! Good morning!"
"Chengdong, what's the situation here?"
"The conditions inside the smart greenhouse meet the requirements, and the missing supporting equipment was all in place a week ago."
The group of people walked and talked.
After entering the dressing room, putting on protective clothing and helmet, I passed through the disinfection room.
Taking into account the requirements of disinfection, these smart greenhouses were not built as one area, but were divided into 100 areas of 10 acres.
They are currently in the first area, where they are cultivating tissue culture seedlings of new varieties of tea oil.
After observing for a while, Jiang Miao asked, "Chengdong, how many Camellia oleifera seedlings have you cultivated for grafting?"
"We started to culture seedlings in the Nanhu Laboratory in September last year. In addition to the first batch of mother seedlings, the second batch in late October last year was officially mass-produced. A total of 1 seedlings were cultured in that batch. They have been growing for two months and were all transplanted to the Magongshan Cultivation Experimental Base half a month ago."
Then Zhang Chengdong pointed to the rows of glass culture dishes in front of him and said, "This is the third batch of tissue cultured tea seedlings. A total of 100 million plants were cultured. The tissue culture was carried out in mid-December last year, and only half a month has passed."
In fact, Jiang Miao could tell at a glance that these tea oil seedlings had only grown for half a month.
"By the end of the month, all these tea seedlings will be transplanted to Jianshan Farm behind the Xihe Village smart greenhouse base."
“Can these seedlings be used in March?”
Zhang Chengdong nodded and said, "Yes, our new varieties are fast-growing. With the nutrient solution and sufficient light in the laboratory tissue culture, they can grow to 60 to 70 centimeters in height in about two months after leaving the laboratory."
"That's good."
Starting from March, the tea oil seedlings will be sent to the Gannan branch one after another.
After grafting, the 200,000 acres of tea oil trees will not bear fruit this year. However, in order to ensure a bumper harvest of new varieties next year, we must reluctantly remove this year's flowers.
From November last year to now, the Gannan Branch has been organizing people to apply pesticides to kill flowers and use fertilizers to increase the nutrient reserves of tree trunks in preparation for this year's grafting.
Because after grafting in March and June, after half a year of growth, it will bloom in November this year and bear fruit next year. The production capacity may be slightly lower in the first year, but the yield will be about 50-60%.
Jiang Miao patted Zhang Chengdong on the shoulder and said, "Thank you for your hard work."
"This is what we should do."
The employees in the tissue culture laboratory are indeed hard-working. In order to ensure production, the tissue culture laboratory has currently recruited 63 technicians and 149 operators.
However this is not enough.
Because the tissue culture laboratory currently has a lot of tasks.
Three new varieties of tea oil seedlings will be cultured, with a total of about 2000 million seedlings; transgenic kapok seedlings will be cultured, with a total of about 300 million seedlings.
At the same time, we also need to update strawberry seedlings, ginseng fruit seedlings, and tomato seedlings. Every month, we need to culture about 20 strawberry seedlings of three varieties, 3.6 ginseng fruit seedlings of two varieties, and 3.6 tomato seedlings of two varieties.
Recently, a new variety of pandan strawberry has been added, and about 100 million plants are cultured every month.
The entire tissue culture laboratory basically runs around the clock.
In order to ensure production, they only take two days off a month.
As a result, they also received the black iron medal for model workers issued by the company, plus double wages on rest days and triple wages on holidays.
For example, Zhang Chengdong, who has been promoted to C2 level, has a basic salary of 10500 yuan per month and an average wage of 525 yuan per day on working days.
Therefore, if he works overtime for eight days on weekends, he can get 8400 yuan in overtime pay.
As for the daily working hours, Hailufeng Company does not encourage everyone to work more than eight hours a day. Even if they work the night shift, they will finish before 11 o'clock every day. They will not engage in day and night production. This is mainly for the health of employees. In fact, Zhang Chengdong and others like to work on weekends, after all, they can get double wages.
If the overtime pay is not substantial, these employees will definitely not be willing to work overtime.
However, their overtime work will soon be significantly reduced because the company is still expanding the staff in the tissue culture laboratory.
...
I visited the tissue culture of tea oil seedlings in the first, second and third zones.
Zhang Chengdong took him to the transgenic kapok seedling tissue culture laboratory in the fourth area. The situation here was similar to that in the oil tea seedling tissue culture area.
Next is the strawberry seedling tissue culture area in the fifth zone.
At present, pandan strawberries have been planted in the 1000-acre simple greenhouses in Nanfen Village, with an average of about 83 acres planted each month.
The first batch of Pandan strawberry seedlings were planted on November 11 last year. They will bloom after about 15 days (end of January this year), bear fruit after 75 days (mid-to-late February this year), and mature after 95 days (mid-to-late March this year). The fruiting period will last until early May.
Pandan strawberries were launched in May and became a new growth point for the company.
Next, he looked at the tomato seedlings and ginseng fruit seedlings in Area 6.
The remaining seventh area is a backup area for the tissue culture laboratory, while the eighth, ninth and tenth areas maintain the previous arrangement and are used to cultivate morels.
At present, the first batch of morel bags have been produced and sent to the smart greenhouse, where they have been cultivated for about 41 days. After about 35 days, the 25 acres of morels can be harvested.
Since the harvest time is close to the Spring Festival and there are only about 10 days left until New Year's Eve, Jiang Miao does not plan to sell this batch of morels.
First, give 5 kg to each employee, and then give 1 kg to each customer.
Whether it is the farmers who purchase eel fry, the contracted Egyptian catfish farmers, or the customers who have purchased the company's products online, all of them will be given free gifts.
As for whether 25 acres of morels are enough to deliver, the probability is that they are not enough.
目前智能大棚种植环境下，使用特定配料营养土的羊肚菌亩产可以达到8～10吨，25亩大概可以产出200～250吨羊肚菌。
To ensure that these more than 200,000 express deliveries can be delivered to customers on time.
The e-commerce division has already negotiated with SF Express in advance that all of these express deliveries will be sent out between February 2 and February 5, and all of them will be required to be transported via cold chain to ensure that the morels will not deteriorate during transportation.
Of course, considering the customers in remote areas or the difficulty in transportation in northern areas in winter, the gifts for customers in these areas are changed to tinplate canned eels or frozen fish balls.
Although these things are worth millions, they are nothing to Hailufeng Company and Jiang Miao.
The purpose of doing this, on the one hand, is to avoid wasting this batch of morels. After all, it is close to the Spring Festival and it is too late to promote them, so they might as well just give them away.
Giving away morels is also a disguised form of advertising.
At this time, in several offices of the e-commerce division, a group of employees were busy. Fortunately, the number of employees in the e-commerce division has soared a lot recently, reaching 85 people, otherwise they would not be able to handle such a large number of delivery orders.
They are sending notifications to each customer in chronological order of purchase records.
Li Xiaoli, who had bought strawberries online before, was secretly browsing various products on Taobao while working.
Suddenly a message popped up in the notification box.
She clicked it casually.
[Dear old customers, Hello, Hailufeng Company wishes you a happy New Year and all the best in advance. In order to give back to old customers (only for customers who placed orders before January 2026, 1), our company will send you a New Year gift, click the link...]
"Another routine?" Li Xiaoli raised her head and began to glance around. When she found that the manager was still in the office, she continued to look at her phone.
After clicking the link.
The page automatically jumps to the product page.
“Morels?”
She looked at it for a while and found that it was not a scam, so she directly ordered one. Although it will not be shipped until February 2, she can get a kilogram of morels for free, which she said she can tolerate.
After taking the photo, she secretly pulled the sleeve of another colleague and said, "Bean Sprout, have you ever bought anything at Hailufeng Company?"
"What?" The girl with glasses was confused.
Li Xiaoli looked at the manager's office again and whispered, "It's the company that sells white truffles!"
When she heard about white truffles, the girl with glasses suddenly realized: "Oh, the one that sells white truffles. I bought their tomatoes on Pinxixi. What's wrong?"
"Open Pinxixi quickly."
"Sister Xiaoli, she's at work!" The girl with glasses pointed to the manager's office.
"I'll help you spread the word. Go to Pinxixi and find the Hailufeng store, and you can get a free portion of morels."
"Really?"
"I have already received it."
"Sister Xiaoli, please help me keep an eye out."
The girl with glasses quickly opened Pinxixi and soon found the Hailufeng Company’s exclusive store. There was a red dot with a text message notification. After clicking it, she came to the Spring Festival gift page through the link.
"It really does."
"Hurry up and get it! Don't dawdle." Li Xiaoli reminded quickly.
"Okay, I got it. They gave me one kilogram for free. I declare that Hailufeng is the most conscientious company."
"What company?" Suddenly a voice came from the other side.
The girl with glasses and Li Xiaoli were startled.
Looking closely, I found that it was the computer maintenance worker Feilong.
"Feilong, could you please stop speaking suddenly all the time? It's so scary." Li Xiaoli was speechless.
"What were you talking about just now?" Feilong asked with a smile on his face.
"A woman's secret." Li Xiaoli pretended to be mysterious.
Fei Long whispered in a mean voice, "Don't lie to me. Although I haven't read much, my ears are still quite sharp. What were you talking about Hailufeng Company just now? Does Sister Xiaoli want to change jobs? Madam, you don't want the manager to know about this, do you?"
"Haha, Feilong, you're so capable now? Do you want to go to the Sheraton Hotel next door later so that I can teach you a few tricks?" Li Xiaoli asked with a wink.
"Haha, I don't dare." Feilong is the kind of fat otaku who is good at talking but actually has lustful thoughts but no courage.
Suddenly, a fiery voice exploded in the ears of several people: "What are you talking about? Have you finished your work today?"
Li Xiaoli, who was a seasoned man, smiled and waved her hand: "Haha, manager, we are talking about work. I just had a computer question for Feilong, Feilong, right?"
"Yes!" Feilong was like a chick pecking at rice.
The manager glanced at the two of them and snorted, "Humph, the company's performance is not good this year, so I won't give you a year-end bonus."
"what?"
"How could this be?"
"Didn't you say you signed a few big contracts?"
"Depend on!"
The manager looked indifferent: "If you have time to complain here, why don't you think about what you can do for the company? Isn't the poor performance due to your own lack of effort? Who can you blame for this?"
Everyone was speechless, but no one spoke up to refute.
After the manager left the office, everyone started to complain.
"If he wasn't the boss's nephew, how could he be the manager?"
"Bah! You look like a dog."
"The company's performance is not good, it's all because he screwed up a few old customers, and he blames us for not working hard enough."
"It's true that ugly people often cause mischief."
"Oh! This year is so sad."
Li Xiaoli suddenly remembered: "Oh, by the way, if anyone has bought anything from Hailufeng Company, go to their online store to claim your Spring Festival gifts. You can get a kilogram of morels for free."
"Is there such a good thing?"
"Shit! Why is there a date limit?"
"Haha, I got it."
Since there was no year-end bonus this year, they completely let themselves go and discussed loudly without restraint.
