Chapter 1089: Sudden Attack
"Yiping, do you still want to order food?" Fang Yingzhi asked.
Looking at the young man sitting against the light, she was filled with admiration. He casually decided to set up a company to go public. How many such people could there be?
"No," Feng Yiping looked at his watch, "Let's go out." He quickly started to pack up the things on the table. "You tell Jiayi to come with you. By the way, let her take the luggage."
"Go directly to the airport after dinner?"
"Yes,"
The recording of the conversation is scheduled for tomorrow, and he will fly to the capital this afternoon.
…………
"There are at least two hours left, Mr. Feng, what delicious food are you going to treat us to?"
Zheng Jiayi talks a lot now. She seems to be unable to sit still in the car. She looks out the window at the familiar scenery like a country child coming to the city for the first time. "Wow, it's so beautiful here." "Wow, it's beautiful there. "
She's not exaggerating, she's showing nostalgia and reluctance.
Her work visa has been successfully applied for. This time she went to the capital to receive a few days of training with this group of colleagues who were to be deployed to the United States.
This time I go to the United States, unlike the last time, I will only stay for a few days. This time, I will work and live there for at least a year or two.
Although I know that even in the United States, I will live well because of Feng Yiping's care, but as a girl, before leaving my country and leaving my hometown, while yearning and yearning, I will inevitably feel a little sentimental and reluctant. .
Fang Yingzhi knew the reason behind her abnormal behavior, "It must be that you take us to eat whatever you want."
"Don't worry, everything is ready," Feng Yiping said.
"Really?" Zheng Jiayi finally calmed down a little, "That's so embarrassing,"
But then he immediately asked, "What is it? I don't eat Western food. I feel worried when I think about eating Western food every day from now on."
"It must be hot pot, right?" she asked with a smile. "It's hard to eat authentic hot pot in the United States, and many of the ingredients for hot pot in China are not available abroad."
"In weather like today, when you're sitting around a steaming hot pot, if you want to make red oil, or if you want to eat clear soup, just eat clear soup. Tsk, it's so beautiful just thinking about it,"
Feng Yiping couldn't handle it. Due to the restrictions of the dining environment, he really couldn't eat hot pot today.
Zheng Jiayi understood as soon as she saw Feng Yiping's expression, "Am I overthinking?"
"At least it's not hot pot at noon today," Feng Yiping looked to the side, "Wenhua, pull over and stop ahead."
Stop, what do you mean?
Fang Yingzhi took a look and said, "Yiping, is there anything you want to buy?"
"Look," Feng Yiping opened the car door and walked out, striding into the convenience store in front of him.
Naturally, several people couldn't stay in the car, so they walked over. Fang Yingzhi felt that this scene seemed very familiar. Mr. Jin often did this. Could it be that Yiping was the same today?
She guessed right, Feng Yiping made a surprise attack today.
There were not many customers in the store at the moment, and Feng Yiping was looking carefully between the rows of shelves. The young man behind the cashier obviously recognized who this was, he was excited, nervous, and reserved.
Feng Yiping didn't disturb him. He was squatting now, taking out a few cans of drinks from the penultimate row of shelves and checking if there was any dust on them. Fortunately, they were quite clean. He reached out and touched the inside of the shelves and frowned. There are light dust marks on the fingertips.
The young man who looked to be about the same age as Feng Yiping saw that there were no other customers at the moment. He ran over with a towel and was very embarrassed. "Teacher Feng, I'm sorry, I'll clean it right away."
"No, you go and entertain the customers." Feng Yiping put the cans of drinks back in their place one by one. "Come on, take me to see the health records."
After getting off work every night, the staff on duty must clean the convenience store inside and outside before leaving get off work, and they must keep records in the system.
After the next shift of staff arrives at the store, they will evaluate the hygiene status of the previous shift and record the same. This is also a continuous level-to-level responsibility.
Of course, in convenience stores, cleaning is a continuous task. When you are not busy, you should also wipe the shelves with a rag while tallying goods.
The very nervous young man entered the password incorrectly several times, but finally successfully entered the system and retrieved the records. He finished cleaning at 11:33 last night and accepted it at 6 o'clock this morning. There were only two choices for the acceptance criteria. I was satisfied. , or dissatisfied, choose satisfaction.
"Tian Hua," Feng Yiping called out, and the young man named Tian Hua quickly apologized repeatedly, "I'm sorry, Teacher Feng, I didn't do my job well. I will clean it thoroughly tonight."
His attitude was pretty good. He didn't push it to the previous class, nor did he say he didn't have time to clean because he was too busy. He just said he didn't do a good job.
"It's okay." Feng Yiping naturally wouldn't embarrass a front-line employee. "Oh," he gestured to his collar.
Tian Hua didn't understand what was going on. Fang Yingzhi and Zheng Jiayi reminded him at the same time, "Buttons."
The shirts distributed by the company have collar buttons, which are highly decorative, lively, dynamic, and look refreshing.
Only then did he realize it, and he quickly buttoned up the collar button on the left side.
"Tian Hua, like those blind spots that are difficult to clean, we usually clean them thoroughly every once in a while,"
The rules are of course that every day and every corner cannot be missed.
Tian Hua lowered his head, "I am two days old."
"But Mr. Feng, I clean these things up there every day," he moved the top layer of a shelf, took out a few items, and touched them with both hands. Sure enough, they were clean.
"Yeah," Feng Yiping nodded, but said nothing.
He had also sorted goods in shopping malls and knew the difficulties involved.
For example, the lower shelves are not convenient to clean, and they are not easy to clean during the day. After a tiring day, when I get off work at night, sometimes I really don't have the patience or energy to squat down and clean them one by one.
And dust is also closely related to the environment. For some stores on the road, such as those near the main road, you may wipe them three times a day, but there will still be dust when you check them according to Feng Yiping's method.
But requirements are requirements.
"How are these selling?" Feng Yiping asked, pointing to the bread cabinet and hot dog oven.
In other parts of Asia, such as Japan, South Korea, and across the Taiwan Strait, the lunch boxes and sushi sold in convenience stores account for more than 30% of daily sales on average.
However, in China, after many years, most convenience stores have not involved this area. There are reasons for demand. For example, if you buy these products like boxed lunches in convenience stores in residential communities, the sales will not be very good. The elderly who stay at home during the day in the community do not care about the time cost and would rather do it themselves.
There are also policy restrictions. The state has strict approval for the concurrent business projects of convenience stores. For example, the local governments have many requirements for the breakfast business that Youjia is currently concurrently operating.
For example, in the capital, it is required that the area of the additional breakfast business project in the convenience store should not be less than 3 square meters; there must be dust and fly prevention facilities, no open flames are allowed in the business premises, no pollution of the environment, no disturbance to the residents; water supply and drainage facilities must be installed...
Breakfast service only heats the breakfast food distributed centrally, and on-site processing is prohibited; breakfast food is distributed and purchased uniformly, the food packaging materials used must meet the hygiene standards, and the outer packaging must indicate the date of manufacture, shelf life, food standards and eating methods... and many other requirements, which are very detailed.
How detailed is it? Anyone who has read these requirements will definitely believe that there will never be food safety problems in China.
Later you will understand that the very detailed regulations are not necessarily for the purpose of achieving a better goal, but more likely for generating revenue!
Moreover, the government may not allow stools in convenience stores in order to avoid the impact of convenience stores on other industries.
In other words, you can't buy a box lunch in a convenience store, heat it in the microwave, and then have a box of yogurt, and sit down to eat it - either stand up or take it back.
However, the government will allow chairs to be placed in stores in the future, especially in cities like Shanghai, where more and more people will care about time costs in the future. In the future, in office building-type, mixed residential and commercial and subway-type convenience stores, the sales of box lunches and sushi will be a very important direction.
Not only can it greatly increase sales, but, as we all know, the profit in this area is also very high, at least higher than the profit level of other products in convenience stores.
Therefore, although the store is still just doing some simple breakfasts, Feng Yiping is very concerned about this area.
"Bread sales are not very good," Tian Hua said, "hot dogs are good, and oden is the best,"
"Why is bread sales not good?"
"I think it's a matter of taste,"
This is really a problem.
Cakes are easy to make delicious, but it is not easy to make bread delicious and popular.
"What is the main reason why consumers buy hot dogs and oden in the store?"
"Convenience, and peace of mind," Tian Hua said.
Well, this is exactly what Feng Yiping pursues. I hope that these people can still maintain this attitude when the store sells lunch boxes in the future.
"Tian Hua, do you have any opinions on the logistics company? Are they timely in delivering goods? Is the error rate high?"
"It's still within a reasonable range," Tian Hua answered this question quickly.
"What is the main reason for loss?" Feng Yiping asked another very important question. This is also a problem that will exist no matter what. If it is not well controlled, the impact will be very large.
"We have a very good control over the loss rate. If we find that some goods are damaged after unpacking, we can exchange them with the manufacturer. Some losses are our own mistakes. I was not skilled at the beginning. When I was replenishing the goods, I broke two bottles of beer."
"Some others are because the goods were swapped, but it was not discovered during the settlement."
"Finally, when we were counting, we found that some goods were missing, or when we closed the store at night, we found that there were no sales during the day. Although we didn't see it, it should be stolen. This is also the biggest reason for loss."
However, regarding this area, Youjia is currently controlling it well, and the loss rate is below 0.2%.
Other companies often have internal thefts, such as cashiers tampering, Youjia does better, and there has not been a single case so far.
"For the excess losses, can you personally accept the proportion you bear according to the system?"
The excess losses are 70% and 30% for employees and the company.
"I think it is reasonable,"
"What suggestions do you have for daily operations?"
"The company's regulations are all very good," Tian Hua said, "but I have a small suggestion, I don't know if it is reasonable,"
"Say,"
"I think that after ten o'clock in the evening, stores like ours that are not in the central area can turn off some lights appropriately? Sometimes it is a pity to keep them all on. This can save some costs,"
This is really a direction. The electricity bill of convenience stores is also a big item in the cost. A store can save dozens of yuan, which adds up to a very considerable number.
Feng Yiping asked a few more questions about the products, such as the function of the infrared thermometer he produced and the product numbers of rare products. A customer happened to come in and said, "I can see that your business level is good, but Tian Hua, there is something wrong." , the key is to insist on cleaning thoroughly every two days now, will it be extended to one week in the future?”
"Relax once and it's very easy to relax again and it will become a habit later on,"
"You have to remember that success sometimes means doing simple things over and over again, so as not to disturb your work."
"I remember, Teacher Feng, walk slowly,"
Fang Yingzhi stayed behind and warned, "Don't notify other people."
She knew that since Feng Yiping was doing this, it would be impossible for him to only visit one store.
"What if every store is equipped with a vacuum cleaner or a vacuum blower? Yingzhi, let them all try it and see if that can better maintain the hygiene of the store and greatly reduce everyone's labor intensity. ,"
Feng Yiping believes that of course employees must work hard, but the company must also do its best to reduce the burden on employees.
"Okay, I'll notify them right away," Fang Yingzhi made a note in her notebook and reminded, "vacuum cleaners are not cheap for one square meter,"
Yes, current vacuum cleaners have not yet fully entered the household, and the prices are not at all affordable. The quality is decent, even if purchased in bulk, it will cost at least a thousand yuan. If every store carries it, it will be a huge investment. .
"Ignore this first and look at the effect first. Does it have to be wiped with a wet towel to clean it? If the vacuum cleaner is efficient and effective, then it costs a lot to configure it,"
"Besides, we can consider asking Magic Workshop to design one, which should keep the cost to a minimum,"
"Also, regarding turning off the lights to save electricity, I think we can also consider it. By extension, should we also think of ways to save some electricity in refrigerators, freezers or dairy refrigerators? This question Let them also study it and, if possible, formulate some common guidelines,"
Today's trip, Feng Yiping felt that the harvest was quite good, "Do you want to stop here?" He arrived in front of another store, "Let's go to the next one," Feng Yiping said.
At noon, Feng Yiping raided three convenience stores. The hygiene of the bottom shelves, including the products and shelves, was generally not ideal. The attitude of the employees in the second store was not ideal. These two problems are probably common problems. .
The first problem should be improved if we vigorously address it. But for the second problem, if we want to completely change it, we probably need a multi-pronged approach. Feng Yiping came up with the idea of hiring an expert in this field.
Not long after leaving the third store, Fang Yingzhi received a call, "It's Mr. Dai, Ji Sheng, asking where we are," she whispered.
Dai Jisheng was the first person to follow Zhou Xinyu to join Youjia. Now he is the person in charge of Shanghai Youjia. It seems that he has finally got the news.
If you want to see yourself at this time, it's nothing more than a review. "Tell him that he doesn't need to come over. You can send him an email as soon as possible about today's questions and comments. Wenhua, the hotel in front," Feng Yiping pointed to the hotel in front of him. That Yijia.
