Song Tan Jishi

 Song Tan ruthlessly rejected Lao Xu’s propaganda.

Even Lu Chuan sincerely thanked him and declined with a smile -

"I don't offer Tantan's delicacies here, and there's no guarantee that you'll be able to buy anything when you come here. There's no need to promote it."

Lao Xu: "..." No, spending so much time to build such an expensive B&B is really just building it without making any money?

Although he didn't speak, his expression vividly interpreted everything. Lu Chuan thought for a while and then said:

"Then...Master Xu, please don't worry about it anymore."

"And the B&B has been built. If you don't panic, you can stay for a few days... A film crew will come to the village to shoot scenes in April. If you want to set up a frame and background, I don't know if you have any relevant experience here. You can pick it up.”

"But, the construction industry is in a downturn now anyway, so it would be good to see other tracks."

This suggestion really confused Lao Xu.

He is a person who builds houses down-to-earth, so the crew and background construction are too far apart, right? But Lu Chuan's last words deeply touched his heart -

Because as he said, so many construction sites across the country are now shut down. He is lucky. He has always had work on hand in the past two years, but the old Song family can't build a house every year, right?

Anyway, after the two B&Bs were completed, there was nothing else to do. He still had to go to the crew to see them.

Apart from anything else, what if we want to build a film and television city?

He can't take on big projects, so why not just be a small package in transit?

Lao Xu's spirit was shaken, and he felt that he had a plan for the next step. At this moment, he solemnly patted his chest and said:

"Don't worry, the B&B here will be used by celebrities, right? I will keep an eye on it for you and make sure every detail is in place!"

After coming out of the B&B, Lu Chuan looked at the flower beds reserved on both sides and found that planting could be arranged after the road surface was dry, so he showed the plan to Song Tan.

Zhang Yanping and Xin Jun happened to come over from the seventh cousin's old house B&B. Seeing this, Zhang Yanping asked actively:

"How about it? Do you want me to cooperate and go in for a couple of turns?"

"I'm telling you, Lu Chuan, I must have contributed a lot to the fact that your B&B was built so quickly and well!"

The underworld eldest brother has fully realized his abilities and speaks very sincerely at this moment.

And Lu Chuan immediately nodded:

"Thanks for your hard work!"

He was really grateful to Zhang Yanping for taking the trouble. When you decide to give away a computer, buy a B&B operation system!

He was so solemn, but Zhang Yanping felt a little embarrassed: "Hey, my family should be here...I have already been here in the morning, and I will come over in the afternoon to take a look."

Song Tanxin said that with Lao Xu's current appearance, Zhang Yanping probably wouldn't need to keep an eye on him anymore.

But this was his cousin's love and affection. Song Tan, who was no longer stingy, was also thinking about what to give as a gift for opening the business.

But the most urgent thing—

"Have you hired all the cleaning staff for your B&B? Including bed linen cleaning and so on?"

This is a big problem! When the time comes, Wuyangyang's crew will crowd in, and they will have to change bedding, towels, etc. every day...

Zhang Yanping looked at Lu Chuan: "Where are you at? Have you recruited them all?"

Lu Chuan nodded: "My mother and I can serve as customer service for the time being."

"The cleaning is entrusted to Tian Tian. She knows many people who have worked in the hotel and promised to help find two diligent and meticulous people. When the people come to live in the dormitory on the mountain, they will be happy to do so."

"The cleaning of the bedding is outsourced to an online store, and Fengfeng Express will pick it up every day. It will be cleaned, disinfected, packed and sent back." It is more expensive than the local cleaning shop, but it saves a lot of trouble. And because the price of his B&B is high and the bedding is made of different materials and packaged to a cheap linen company, he is worried.

Zhang Yanping and Xin Jun sighed.

Nothing else, it’s just nice to have money!

And they spend money like water.

Don't look at finding a customer service person, and then find two cleaning staff, the monthly salary doesn't seem to be much...

But although the B&B in Lu Chuan covers a large area, there are few rooms. Two housekeepers are enough to do everything, and they can also replace the vacation.

What about his side?

There are three floors, and the smallest single room is 15 square meters. One person may not have the cold period, but the crew may even have several people in one room (of course the price will increase a bit)...

This makes cleaning twice as difficult, and hiring someone is even harder.

Alas, when I suddenly decided to build a B&B, the two of them seriously thought about it from opening preparations to subsequent development, but they didn't expect that they actually encountered so many problems!

The two of them frowned: "Let's first ask if there is a cheap linen cleaning shop - oh, but for separate bedding, the daily cleaning fee for a room starts at 10 yuan..."

They asked several companies, and they all said that for long-term and large-scale cooperation, sheets would cost RMB 1.80 each, pillowcases RMB 0.50 each, bedspreads RMB 6, and quilt covers RMB 2...

Not to mention bath towels, bathrobes, etc., each one costs two and a half yuan!

Even, because they are a country B&B, they cannot even meet the cooperation standards of this size. There is no one to collect the linen, so you have to send it to the city yourself!

The gangster brother bowed down for 50 cents, feeling very sad in his heart at this moment.

However, what he is talking about is indeed a practical problem that all entrepreneurs must face.

Lu Chuan also pondered - he was once poor back then. He and Lu Jing lived in an urban village next to the vegetable market and could break two petals of flowers for a penny.

At this moment, he suggested: "Due to filming requirements, the actors will probably have a lot of dust and dirt on their bodies."

"Otherwise, it would be better. In the early stage, the towels, bath towels, etc. in the store will only be provided for one-time use. Although it will be more expensive for long-term use, it is easier to manage in the early stage and easier to clean later."

“Then cleaning the bedding—it’s better to buy a larger washing machine and hire three cleaners.”

"The cleaning salary can be higher - or we can simply hire four people. In addition to cleaning, we can also scrub, wash, disinfect and dry the dirt that cannot be washed away by the washing machine..."

To be honest, there is no shortage of places to dry clothes in rural areas.

Otherwise, the dirty sheets and quilts will be sent to the city for cleaning every day, and the cost will be far greater than the washing machine and labor.

Song Tan said from the beginning that he could provide them with staff dormitories at a cost of 100 yuan per month for a bed.

Staff meals are RMB 30 per person per day.

When food and accommodation are provided, it is more convenient to recruit people.

His suggestion made sense. Zhang Yanping and Xin Jun thought about it and decided to go back and calculate the cost first.

They don't run B&Bs just because they don't have a choice among the crew, so they just perfunctory and monopolize the money. Rather, I want to take advantage of the large number of people in the early stage so that any problems can be exposed quickly, and then we can work hard to make progress.

The two of them continued to think of ways to go online with the limited funds in their hands, but Song Tan's eyes lit up and she had already thought of what to give before opening.
