Siheyuan starts from a good life

Given the size and strength of Kudo Hideko Transport Company, it was impossible to have a dedicated office building in a prosperous area of ​​Tokyo, so a two-story building was built next to the warehouse in Koto District, where the company was located, for office use. Of course, the land in Jiaobenji was private, and she bought the land here before her husband died. In other words, in the near future, land will be the most valuable thing for Kudo Hideko Trading Company.

During the development of Tokyo Bay, two major industrial zones were gradually planned and built. With Ginza as the center, the Keihin Industrial Zone was developed to the west (towards Kawasaki City and Kanagawa Prefecture), and the Keiyo Industrial Zone was developed to the east (towards Chiba Prefecture).

These two industrial belts concentrate industries including steel, nonferrous metallurgy, oil refining, petrochemicals, machinery, electronics, automobiles, shipbuilding, and modern logistics, becoming the world's largest industrial belt. They also include finance, R&D, culture, large entertainment facilities, and large commercial facilities, becoming a world-renowned financial center, R&D center, entertainment center, and consumer center.

These two industrial zones can be said to be the largest, most advanced and most powerful new industrial zones in the world. The close interaction between the industrial zones and Tokyo's financial, headquarters, R&D and other functions has made Tokyo quickly become an important manufacturing and export power in the world after the war. This is a major secret of Tokyo's success and a major successful experience for the Tokyo Bay Area to become a comprehensive bay area in the world.

Tokyo Bay has six major ports, namely Tokyo Port, Yokohama Port, Chiba Port, Kawasaki Port, Yokosuka Port and Kisarazu Port. Among them, Yokosuka Port is the base of the Seventh Fleet of the Eagle Sauce Navy and the Japanese Maritime Self-Defense Force.

These six major ports are connected to the two major international airports of Haneda and Narita and six Shinkansen lines, forming a three-dimensional transportation network between Tokyo Bay and major cities around the world. At the same time, these six major ports and their affiliated warehouses import consumer goods from all over the world, ranging from food and fruits to luxury goods, supporting the high-quality consumption of 6 million people in the Tokyo metropolitan area. In the total amount of goods imported by value in Japan, Tokyo Bay accounts for 3800%.

However, Tokyo Bay has also learned a painful lesson in its development and construction, that is, environmental pollution. After the war, the coast of Tokyo Bay became an industrial battle area, and heavy polluting enterprises such as steel, chemical, and shipbuilding discharged wastewater and waste into Tokyo Bay. At the same time, the large chimneys in the sky made it impossible to see the blue sky in Tokyo. Severe environmental pollution has also triggered serious social crises. Large-scale land reclamation in Tokyo Bay has also brought damage to the natural environment, and its negative impact still exists today.

Fortunately, since the 70s, the Japanese government has been determined to take tough measures to manage the environment of Tokyo Bay. However, the management time is still relatively short, and it can be seen that the water in Tokyo Bay is still a bit turbid.

The port area of ​​Tokyo Bay is busy almost 24 hours a day.

It was morning, the busiest time of the day. Countless tall cranes and transport vehicles were working as hard as ants.

This was also the first time that Jiang Yan felt why Tokyo's population density was among the top three in the world. Smelling the slightly fragrant sea breeze, Jiang Yan fell into deep thought, and no one knew what he was thinking about.

At Jiang Yan's request, the car did not drive to the trading company where Kudo Hideko was located, but instead drove around the port under her command.

The area closest to the sea is naturally the seafood and food area. Jiang Yan and his friends may have encountered the return of the fishing boats. The dock was also unusually busy. Tons of fish were being weighed and frozen in an orderly manner. It can be seen that the people of Jiaobenji have now begun deep-sea fishing. These large-tonnage fishing boats are not something that the current flower growers can compare with.

Kudo Hideko and her trading company are far away from the port, which is several kilometers away in a straight line. They can't even smell the sea water. It must be said that the area where they are is quite clean and tidy.

According to Kudo Hideko's introduction, there are no less than 20 to 30 companies in this area. Their size is not much different from Kudo Hideko's company, that is, some small companies. These companies are almost all transportation companies for machinery and electronic parts, so the requirements are relatively high. Factors such as dryness, quietness, typhoon resistance, etc. must be taken into consideration. When the land was sold, it was more expensive than others.

However, according to Kudo Hideko's introduction, their company has several warehouses near the sea in Yokohama Port area, which are mainly engaged in food transportation.

According to Kudo Hideko, his company's more than 300 employees are now basically in a semi-idle state, but Kudo Hideko does not despise them and still pays their salaries.

The company's first floor warehouse covers an area of ​​more than 500 square meters, which is densely packed with shelves. Different areas are used to store different items. There are two large logistics elevators connected to the warehouse, and trucks of all sizes are brought in from outside. After unloading at the door, the employees inside stack the goods together.

After entering the company, Kudo Hideko took Jiang Yan to visit their own warehouse and office building. The first floor was the warehouse, and the second floor was the office area. The office was extremely busy at this time, and many people were constantly making phone calls. Jiang Yan saw that most of the time they just said a sentence or two and then hung up.

When Kudo Hideko brought Jiang Yan to the second floor, many people inside looked at Jiang Yan curiously. In their memory, they had never seen their boss being so close to anyone.

The space on the third floor is not small either, divided into rooms of different sizes. Kudo Hideko's office is here. It is more than 50 square meters and is not luxurious, but the decoration is not bad either.

"Anata, what would you like to drink, tea or coffee?" Kudo Hideko spoke as soon as Jiang Yan sat down.

Hearing this word, Jiang Yan was stunned. The word あなた is translated into Chinese as (贵方·贵男·贵女). In Japanese, it means husband. It is also a nickname between lovers, usually translated as dear.

"Coffee, no sugar." Jiang Yan said while sitting in the boss chair.

You can also see Tokyo Bay from here, but due to the field of vision, it is not so clear.

According to Hideko Kudo, their company has its own transportation team. Every time the parts produced by each company are packed into pallets suitable for sea transportation, they will notify the company to pick up the goods.

The transport fleet stores the goods in the warehouse and contacts the cargo fleet for space and schedule according to the flight and customer needs. However, these cargo fleets are not owned by small companies and they can only rent them now.

There are more than a dozen employees on each floor counting and directing forklifts. After the sorting is completed, the parts pallets will take the elevator to the first floor and be loaded onto trucks heading in the other direction to be transported to the waiting cargo ships.

Hearing this, Jiang Yan rolled his eyes. It seemed that there was great potential for him to take over this company.
