As time entered the end of the Lunar New Year, the company's business gradually stagnated. People are impetuous, and everyone is looking forward to the New Year. Although the New Year atmosphere is getting weaker and weaker now, at least we have several days of vacation, so we can take a good rest.
In addition, although the spirit of the new year has faded, being able to reunite with your family is the most joyful thing. Although going back to celebrate the New Year will inevitably be naughty by your parents for a while, and although it is difficult to travel home every Spring Festival, no matter how difficult it is, everyone has to rush back so that the family can be reunited.
Especially now, for the vast majority of urban white-collar workers, they are working hard outside and may have only one chance to go home once a year. Therefore, both their parents and themselves pay special attention to and cherish it.
The normal Spring Festival holiday lasts for seven days, which is too short for many people. The time between going home and returning only allows you to really stay at home for a few days.
Therefore, in order to allow everyone to spend more time with their parents at home, Haoyu Technology’s Spring Festival holiday is relatively long, increased to fifteen days, more than doubled.
With these fifteen days, everyone can spend a good New Year with their parents at home. Of course, this is normal, and most employees can enjoy such holidays, but there are still a small number of employees who find it difficult to take all of their holidays due to work commitments.
For example, many positions are inseparable from people, so even during the New Year period, there are many people in various positions in the company who are on duty. These people either arrange additional vacations, or they receive additional salary bonuses, etc., and they are very generous. In short, they will not let their work go in vain.
This is also the reason why many people take the initiative to stay and work overtime. Even before the Spring Festival, many people are unwilling to take a holiday, just for the generous overtime wages and bonuses.
After learning the reason, this made Wu Hao and the others dumbfounded. Finally, after discussion, it was stipulated that all employees were prohibited from working overtime unless necessary, so even if many people wanted to work overtime, it was not possible.
Originally, Wu Hao planned to go to Nanhai with Lin Wei to celebrate the New Year with his parents during the Chinese New Year this year, but who made Zhang Jun propose? This was also his first New Year after proposing, so he had to take advantage of the New Year holiday. Preparing for a wedding.
Therefore, he can only stay on duty and pay condolences to the employees who insist on staying at their posts during the New Year.
After learning about the situation, their parents rushed back from Nanhai and prepared to celebrate the New Year with Wu Hao and others in Anxi. Although it is comfortable to stay in Nanhai, for parents, there is nothing more important than celebrating the New Year with their children.
So after returning from Nanhai, Wu Jianhua and Zhang Xiaoman began to put together new year's goods.
Although there is no shortage of anything during the New Year, these things can be delivered with just a phone call or a message. And every Chinese New Year, Wu Hao receives a lot of new year's goods.
Basically, there is no need for him to do it himself, many people have helped him purchase it. Friends, business partners, some subordinates, and various units all receive a lot of various New Year's goods every year. This has pushed most of them away, and the remaining ones are really difficult to push away.
For example, a certain Internet pig farmer sent black pork and related meat products, such as bacon and sausages. Since this big pig farmer became friends with Wu Hao, he basically gives away things every year, and he gives away a lot every time.
For example, Lao Ma from Hangzhou, although he has retired now, still sends a lot of new year's goods from Jiangnan every year. Not only are they given away for the New Year, they are also given during every year and festival, such as Longjing for the Qingming Festival, meat dumplings for the Dragon Boat Festival, and crabs for the Mid-Autumn Festival. These are basically the New Year’s gifts.
Even Brother Xiaoma in Shenzhen City also gives away, and every time he gives away a lot, such as sausages, abalone, tangerine peel, black tea and so on.
Although these things are diverse, they are not worth much in themselves, especially for the net worth of people like them, they are not worth mentioning at all.
This is just normal interpersonal communication for everyone. How can you refuse? If you refuse, wouldn't it be too unhuman?
So every time during the holidays, Wu Hao would give them away. He would also ask people to get a gift package of Anxi’s specialties, and then give them back to these people. You come and I go, this is friendship.
Despite this, parents are still very busy. Zhang Xiaoman began to thoroughly clean the entire house. Although the house was not dirty, there was usually a smart robot responsible for cleaning. But Zhang Xiaoman always doesn't like it. Smart home robots can clean, but they don't clean enough blind spots. In addition, cleaning the house and arranging some household furnishings are also difficult for smart home robots to do.
It can actually be done, but it is definitely not as warm as someone who arranges it themselves. In Zhang Xiaoman's words, sometimes the house is too tidy and does not feel like home.
What is the taste of home is naturally the trace of your life. As for smart home robots, it is difficult to understand these, and these traces of life are cleared away every time. The home looks very neat and spotless, but it doesn't seem cozy enough.
As for Wu Jianhua, he has been driving around the suburbs and rural areas of Anxi in the past few days, going to the market and buying various new year goods. In his words, the things in the supermarket have no advantages other than being clean, and no one knows whether they are clean or not.
On the contrary, the things in rural areas and surrounding farmers' markets are fresher, more affordable, and better.
Take this pork for example. Basically, the pork you buy in supermarkets comes from major slaughterhouses and farms. This kind of pork looks good, but it is not fat and does not taste good.
As for the New Year pigs in rural areas, they grew up eating grain, so they are very fat and their meat is delicious.
There are also sweet potato flours made in rural areas, which have no additives and are completely hand-pressed. They are more delicious than those produced in factories and sold in supermarkets.
Although Wu Hao is a little helpless, but whoever makes his parents like him, they can't stop him and say no, they can only let them do it.
In fact, we can only rely on them. The end of each year is also the busiest time for Wu Hao and Lin Wei. As the person in charge of the company, they have to be busy with various things.
For example, arranging holidays for employees, arranging holiday work and on-duty notifications, visiting senior leaders, visiting employees below, etc.
Even sometimes they don't necessarily stay home on New Year's Eve. They can't stay home until the second or third day of the lunar new year. There is no way, who makes them the person in charge? Every time this day comes, you have to show your condolences to the employees who are still on the front line and still at their posts.
