Chapter 233 The warehouse was robbed
"Okay, Mom, I'm going back first." Xia Yaoyao was very upset and didn't want to waste any more time on this.
She has been feeling a little uncomfortable in her stomach since this morning.
Li Yinshuang sat on the sofa, still unable to recover from the shock. She didn't even know when Xia Yaoyao left.
Wind Chasing Island.
Shen Zhihui's business has picked up recently, with more and more orders from other places, and the delivery time has been scheduled for a month later.
Xia Mi prepared to go to Qingcheng again to see the situation.
Recently she has been going once a week. The boat at the dock was replaced with a new one at the beginning of the month. It is more comfortable to sit in than the previous old one and is also very fast.
It used to take nearly fifty minutes to get to the island, but now it only takes forty minutes at most.
Xia Mi got off the boat and saw Shen Zhihui talking to the dock staff.
There are several small islands around Qingcheng. Chen Zhihui was inspired and wanted to popularize the goods one by one. No matter how small the mosquito is, it is still meat.
"Xia Mi, you're here." After Shen Zhihui finished talking to someone, he looked up and saw Xia Mi already standing on the dock.
Xia Mi asked, "How did the discussion go?"
"It's not a big deal. Let me go to the nearby islands to check out the situation." Chen Zhihui was very confident about this time. He shared the recent situation in the store with Xia Mi and mentioned Cheng Quan, "This kid started to get anxious when he saw that most of the customers had left."
"The price is the same as mine now, but not many people go there. I think it's not far from closing down."
Speaking of Cheng Quan, Shen Zhihui's tone was not much gloating, but more regretful.
"With these conditions, why not do something else instead of doing it like this?"
"Sometimes, people's behavior and thoughts are just incomprehensible. I heard you say you don't have enough cars. Have you ever thought about buying another one?"
Chen Zhihui hummed, "There's only one car, and two drivers are working back and forth, so the efficiency is still not enough. If possible, I want to set up a transport fleet this time."
The transport fleet is a separate business.
Xia Mi thought that apart from the post office, other logistics companies have not yet emerged. It would be nice if she could set up a logistics company within the province.
Shen Zhihui’s words gave her a hint.
"A transport fleet that only transports goods?"
Shen Zhihui didn't think much about it. He just wanted to do the task at hand. "Can I get others involved?"
Xia Mi didn't say anything, just smiled slightly.
Shen Zhihui cleverly extracted information from her smile, and suddenly realized, yes, why can't he pull someone else's? If the car company can do it, why can't he do it?
Now the country has fully liberalized its policies, encouraged individual businesses, and driven economic development.
All previous restrictions have been abolished. As long as you do not violate discipline or laws, money obtained through formal channels is legal.
"The cost of transport companies is not cheap, so it would be a bit difficult to do it at the moment."
Xia Mi decided to run this logistics company.
"I want to try it this time."
"You mean you want to go into business?" Chen Zhihui was surprised. "Would Captain Huo agree?"
"He will agree. Besides, this is my business, so I don't need his consent. I don't need his money." Xia Mi hesitated for several months and made up her mind at this moment. "Besides, he also knows that I invested in you."
Xia Mi never told Shen Zhihui about this.
Shen Zhihui was surprised, and was inwardly amazed at Huo Jingchen's open-mindedness and Xia Mi's boldness.
He was worried that Xia Mi was just acting on impulse, so he calmly advised, "You're pregnant now, you can't get tired, and you can't run around. When your belly gets bigger, you can't take the boat too often. Why don't you wait a little longer?"
This is true, so Xia Mi made a bold decision.
"It's okay. I'll rent a house here when the month is over, or I'll come and take a look after a while. I won't have to travel back and forth, which saves a lot of time."
These are all things Xia Mi has considered.
Seeing that she had made up her mind, Shen Zhihui stopped trying to persuade her. He also knew that now was the worst time to wait, and what they could think of, others could also think of.
"There's no rush about this. It will take a lot of time just to prepare for the master." Xia Mi plans to take it slowly. There are many opportunities now, but not many people are willing to leave their iron rice bowl.
To do logistics business, first of all, the drivers must be well equipped.
The first thing that comes to mind is the truck drivers of freight companies, who are the least likely to leave their original units.
Truck drivers now have better wages and benefits than salesmen. It is still a very glamorous job that everyone envies.
It is unrealistic to train new drivers. Getting a driver's license is harder than climbing to the sky. Not only does the company have to select and evaluate outstanding employees, but you also have to learn theory and maintenance, which is very complicated.
The cost of training new drivers is very high, but experienced drivers are hard to find.
Xia Mi couldn't help but sigh. Doing business is really not easy. People can be stuck at the first step.
Chen Zhihui also knew that it was not easy. The two people he found last time were relatives of the truck driver, and one of them was even his son. Only then were they willing to persuade the unit and be affiliated with the unit before they got their driver's license.
Theory classes in the morning and maintenance in the afternoon took almost half a year before these two people got a driving license.
If Xia Mi wants to set up a transportation company, she will have to put in a lot of effort.
When the two of them reached the fork in the road, Xiao Wang came running over in a hurry, looking flustered and so nervous that he stuttered when he spoke.
"No, it's bad. Our store was robbed!" Xiao Wang slapped his lips again. "No, it's the warehouse that was pried open. Most of the goods we brought back yesterday are gone."
"What's going on!" When Shen Zhihui heard that something was being stolen, he ran towards the warehouse.
Xia Mi didn't dare to run, but still quickened her pace.
Xiao Wang also wanted to follow, but seeing that Xia Mi was still there, he stopped and walked with Xia Mi.
"Have you called the police?"
Xiao Wang nodded quickly, "I've reported it. Four police officers are here. They're all at the warehouse, counting the losses."
"How much was lost?"
Xiao Wang's face was solemn and grim. "I estimate it's around 18,000. The goods were just brought back yesterday, and the gas in the car in the yard has been stolen."
Even the oil was not spared.
"So much." The cargo weighs almost tons. This group of people must have come prepared and must have a car, otherwise they wouldn't be able to carry so much.
Soon, Xia Mi also rushed to the warehouse. There were many people gathered around to watch the excitement, all standing on tiptoe and craning their necks to watch.
The warehouse was more than half empty, really more than half. Two-thirds of the shelves were empty, and there were many footprints on the ground.
Shen Zhihui is communicating with the police.
A police officer saw Xia Mi approaching and reached out to stop her, "Comrade."
Xiao Wang quickly explained, "We are employees here, not outsiders."
The police officer glanced at the two of them and pointed to another place, "Then come with me."
Xia Mi was also called in for questioning, probably about her relationship with Shen Zhihui and where she appeared last night.
When the public security officer heard that Xia Mi was an investor, he was stunned and asked, "What is investment?"
