Chapter 632: 626 Thoughtful and considerate good boss

However, this idea, though easy to think about, is not so simple to implement.

"Okay, Director Gu, we understand."

The chefs all nodded as if they had understood.

These chefs were not outsourced; the cafeteria wasn’t contracted out to outsiders either.

Instead, they had recruited the staff themselves, all of whom were quite skilled chefs, not the kind who just cook in large pots.

The salaries and treatment of these chefs were not low, and each one worked very hard in the cafeteria.

"Director Gu, have you eaten? Would you like me to get you something?"

At this point, the construction team leader next to Gu Chen asked.

He seemed very considerate, but Gu Chen quickly declined.

"No need, I won’t eat."

"Considering the current pace of progress, how long will it take to complete Furong Mansion?" Gu Chen asked him.

Upon hearing Gu Chen suddenly ask about the construction, he immediately became serious.

Then he said to Gu Chen, "Even if we hurry, it’s very likely to take more than a year."

Hearing his response, Gu Chen had a clear idea in his mind.

If they were to go at this pace, it would be too slow.

This renovation has many areas waiting in line; it will not all be wasted on just Furong Mansion.

He also realized, looking at the situation, that they had no choice but to start construction on multiple sites simultaneously.

The goal was to ensure that the project would be perfectly completed within three years.

"Then hurry up and eat, and remember to take a break after lunch, don’t start exercising right after eating."

Gu Chen instructed them and then left.

As everyone watched Gu Chen walk away without saying anything else,

many sighed in relief after a moment.

It was really because they felt a bit nervous in front of Gu Chen.

Not because Gu Chen looked scary or was particularly fierce.

It mainly came down to two reasons; first, the treatment at Ping’an Real Estate was so good, none of them wanted to leave this job.

Secondly, Gu Chen was a really good person and had never micromanaged them; such a boss was hard to find. Working regular hours without the need for overtime, no one was forced to rush the projects during their shifts.

These were all requirements from Old Zhang, who said they were all directives from Gu Chen.

So, they always remembered the kindness of Gu Chen in their hearts.

After Gu Chen left them, he headed to the factory.

The inventory for Little White Liquor was about to run out, and he had ordered another 300,000 sets there.

By the time he arrived at Little White Liquor Company, it was evident that the number of people had increased significantly.

The sales team had expanded from the original four people to twenty in an instant.

The original four sales reps had become leaders of Groups One, Two, Three, and Four respectively.

It was a complete promotion and salary increase.

Upon arrival, Gu Chen had a brief meeting with these four group leaders.

The content of the meeting was nothing else but to ask them how their preparations for the surrounding cities were going.

"Director Gu, rest assured, everything is almost ready. As soon as the companies over there are established, we can swiftly move over and set up."

"That’s right, Director Gu, we’re all ready and can start at any time!"

They all promised Gu Chen confidently.

Little White Liquor had also built up the confidence of the four of them.

Gu Chen still vaguely remembered the time when the four of them had just joined the company.

Back then, the four of them were clueless youngsters, knowing nothing at all.

But now, it seemed as if these four had become as shrewd as old hands.

Since they said they were ready, Gu Chen did not offer any further advice.

However, if any mistakes occurred when the time came, he could only blame himself.

By the time he left the small liquor company, he had been busy all morning.

It was almost 3 o’clock in the afternoon.

Gu Chen went straight home to catch up on sleep, leaving the rest of the business affairs untouched.

He was not at all interested in whether it was sunny or rainy outside.

As for the bar, by the time he woke up, it would have already started its normal operations.

It would be time to check it out then.

The thing was, it didn’t really matter whether he went or not, because even if he did, it wouldn’t change anything.

Everything that could have been done there was done; it was now up to the bar’s natural growth and marketing prowess.

After this month, he would check the sales performance of those in marketing.

If their performance wasn’t up to standard, then next month he would have to regretfully let them go.

After all, the bar could not afford to keep idlers who simply ate without working.

Gu Chen had just closed his eyes and was pondering these things when the phone in the living room suddenly rang.

Hearing the phone ring, he reluctantly got out of bed.

He slowly walked into the living room and answered the phone.

When he picked up, he heard Wu Dazhu’s voice on the other end.

"Hello? Didn’t I ask you to bring me the cost details of the liquor? Did you forget?" Wu Dazhu asked over the phone.

Gu Chen indeed forgot about this, and if it weren’t for Wu Dazhu’s reminder, he wouldn’t have remembered it.

But although Wu Dazhu reminded him, Gu Chen seemed not to care at all.

"Wait a bit longer for that, the liquor hasn’t been fully accounted for yet; there are shipments every day," Gu Chen replied.

"Then just tell me, how much money did you spend in total on these drinks?" he asked again.

Gu Chen thought for a moment and then said, "It should be around one hundred and ten thousand."

He had bought a lot of liquor, and those few expensive bottles were particularly costly.

"Alright, now I know."

The phone call ended quickly, and Gu Chen didn’t bother about Wu Dazhu anymore, hurrying back to sleep instead.

He slept really deeply.

When he finally opened his eyes again, he saw that the sky outside had already darkened.

And somehow, Ji Pianran had already returned and was lying beside him.

Curiously, Gu Chen looked at her and asked, "When did you get back? What time is it?"

"It should be around nine o’clock; just go back to sleep," Ji Pianran told Gu Chen.

"What about Tangtang? Has she had dinner?" Gu Chen asked Ji Pianran.

Ji Pianran nodded after hearing this, "When I brought her back, I saw you were sleeping, so I took her downstairs to eat some stretched noodles; the little one is probably asleep now, too."

Knowing that both she and Tangtang had eaten, Gu Chen felt relieved.

But he wasn’t thinking about going back to sleep.
