Chapter 111 111, Employee Community

Qiao brand clothing is now thriving, and the momentum is strong. Not long ago, the North City Branch officially went into production. Our boss Qiao suddenly thought of something and started to make trouble again. She bought a large piece of vacant land in the north of the city.

Just when everyone thought she was going to expand the clothing factory again, Qiao Zhenzhen actually announced that she would build an employee community.

Twenty years ago, it was a collective economy, and some large state-owned units would indeed distribute housing to workers, but now after the reform and opening up, the market economy has been implemented, and this operation has long been discontinued. Some state-owned units are even unable to continue, so where is the money to build houses for everyone.

As for private enterprises, that is even more impossible. You still want a private boss to provide you with treatment that even state-owned enterprises don't have? Go to sleep quickly, you will have all kinds of dreams.

Housing has always been the top priority for Chinese people, even in modern times, so when Qiao Zhenzhen announced that she was going to build an employee community, everyone was excited.

However, this house is not allocated to everyone for free, but you have to spend money to buy it. Not only can people in the company buy it, but people outside can also buy it. It's just that for their own employees, they will issue a coupon, and the price is equivalent to a 30% discount compared to the outside.

In addition to the preferential housing purchase benefit, Qiao Zhenzhen also stipulated that only 20% of the house would be sold to the outside at most, and the rest would be kept for her employees, unless it was not sold after a few years, then it would be sold to outsiders.

When the people in the factory heard the news, they were very excited. They didn't expect to get a house for free. After all, there were limited houses and many people in the factory. If they had to wait for allocation and seniority, it would probably not be their turn.

But now they have to pay for the house themselves. As long as they are quick and lucky, they may be able to grab one, and the price is so cheap. If they don't buy it, they are fools.

The wages and benefits at Qiao Brand Clothing Factory are so high, and the benefits are so good. Just looking at the things given out during festivals and holidays, you can tell that other factories can't compare. They plan to work for such a good factory for the rest of their lives.

So, when Qiao Zhenzhen said that she would give 80% of the houses to everyone, everyone still felt that it was a little too little, and even sent employee representatives to ask Qiao Zhenzhen if they could not sell them to outsiders and keep them all for the employees in their own factory.

Qiao Zhenzhen didn't expect everyone to be so positive about buying houses. She was worried that everyone in the factory didn't have enough purchasing power, so she thought about selling them to outsiders. Now that they can digest them internally, she is too lazy to bother.

But a few days later, Brother Jiang came to the clothing factory to find Qiao Zhenzhen. As soon as they met, he said straight to the point: "Boss, I heard that you want to build a house for the clothing factory?"

"You are well-informed. I just bought the land, and there are still many procedures to go through."

Is it a question of whether the procedures have been completed? Brother Jiang looked at Qiao Zhenzhen with grievance. The little expression made Qiao Zhenzhen get goosebumps: "Brother, stop pretending. This expression really doesn't suit you. It doesn't look like you are sympathizing with women. Instead, it feels creepy and scary."
