Chapter 13013 Selling Dog Meat Under the Pretense of Sheep
Yu Zeyuan, who had taken three days off, was too embarrassed to stay at home any longer, so he had to go out with Xue Yi early in the morning.
"You take the back one."
Yu Zeyuan opened his mouth and was about to ask why you didn't go sit down, but he swallowed the words back and squeezed out a word: "Okay."
The subway during the morning rush hour was far more crowded than Yu Zeyuan had imagined. Relying on his height advantage, he could barely catch his breath in the crowd.
He was used to staying in a hotel near the company, so this was his first time to squeeze into the subway for the early morning shift, and he also witnessed the power of being a corporate slave.
The carriage was packed like a can of sardines, and the turbid air mixed with various odors made him almost nauseous.
What was even more unbearable was that his body was forced to come into contact with strangers. Someone even mistook his hanging arm for a fixed handrail and held on to it all the way, unable to get rid of it.
There was always someone sticking close to him from behind, and rubbing against him intentionally or unintentionally as the car swayed. The feeling of being taken advantage of made him tense all over. Every second seemed like torture, and he wanted to get off the car and run away countless times.
He suppressed his inner discomfort and secretly decided that he would rather sleep two hours less and get up early to take a taxi than suffer this pain!
How did that woman endure it?
After finally reaching the station, Yu Zeyuan walked into the company with a lot of anger.
When many female colleagues saw him appear, their eyes lit up. He looked even more handsome after not seeing him for a few days. They surrounded him excitedly.
"Hey, Xiao Yu is here! I heard you were sick. Are you feeling better now? You look a lot thinner!"
"That's right. You have to be extra careful when you're recovering from an illness. I have some warm honey water here, which is good for recovery. Can I pour you a glass?"
"Have you had breakfast? I brought extra sandwiches and boiled eggs..."
Faced with this sudden enthusiasm, Yu Zeyuan instantly switched modes.
A shy smile spread across his face, his peach blossom eyes curved, and the dimples at the corners of his mouth were faintly visible: "Thank you sisters for your concern, I'm much better now."
This smile and address immediately made the female colleagues happy.
Yu Zeyuan's voice was slightly hoarse, as if he had just recovered from a serious illness. "But don't bother with breakfast! It's time to go to work, so let's just focus on our work."
He turned and walked towards his workstation.
He looks like a diligent, down-to-earth, positive and well-behaved intern.
Haha, you really know how to pretend.
Xue Yi withdrew his gaze and sorted out the work arrangements for the day.
The end of the month is a critical time to achieve performance goals, and all departments are working hard.
Especially the telemarketing department, the lecture schedule is full, and the fire and health departments have almost four lectures each, which also leads to staff shortages.
Xue Yi figured that Yu Zeyuan's theoretical training over the past few days should be coming to an end, and it was time to get him out for practice.
She walked to Yu Zeyuan's workstation and saw that he was burying his head and was not aware of her approach at all.
Xue Yi tapped the table with his fingers, "Come with me on the field trip later."
Yu Zeyuan was startled, his shoulders trembled, and he quickly closed the second-hand resale app he had just opened.
He raised his head and said calmly, "Okay, Manager Xue."
Xue Yi changed into light blue work clothes and walked out of the locker room.
Her facial features are delicate and gentle, with a classical charm. When she puts on the uniform, she gives people a sense of dignity and righteousness.
Not to mention health promotion, no one questioned even the fact that she was a female police officer.
Yu Zeyuan's gaze paused on her for a second before moving away and asking, "Don't I need to change?"
"We don't have your code number at the moment. The HR department is already processing it."
She picked up the thermos on the table and said, "Just look after the model later."
The model Xue Yi mentioned is a silicone model with only the upper body, whose main function is to demonstrate first aid simulation.
My partner today is Fatty Liu from the Fire Department.
He had been waiting downstairs for a long time. The company had arranged a pick-up driver for each field team.
Yu Zeyuan glanced at the car parked next to him. Not only was it old, it was also an unknown brand.
He sat in with gritted teeth, the smell of cheap leather hitting his nose. The space inside the car was extremely narrow, and there was nowhere to put his long legs, so he could only curl up in frustration.
Xue Yi sat in the passenger seat. The first lecture was held at a factory in the suburbs, and the drive was nearly an hour.
According to her experience, factory workers have limited spending power, and a sales volume of three to five thousand is the best they can hope for, while zero is the norm. She brought Yu Zeyuan along mainly to let him observe and learn, otherwise she would not be able to take care of anything when she was busy.
The ride was bumpy, and the old carriage and the hot weather made it feel like a steamer. The car just stopped at the factory gate.
Yu Zeyuan pushed open the car door and rushed out.
His face was pale, he supported his knees with one hand and held the wall with the other, and he started to retch.
Xue Yi and Fatty Liu looked at each other.
This kid... is actually carsick?
Xue Yi handed over a tissue and said calmly, "After you finish vomiting, get back to work."
Wouldn't most people at this point ask, "Are you okay?" Besides work, what else does this woman care about?
"knew."
Yu Zeyuan took the tissue and wiped his mouth, his dissatisfaction with her almost reaching its peak.
The factory leader had been waiting not far away. Seeing them approach, he immediately extended his hand respectfully: "Thank you for your hard work. I am the factory director Song Yong."
"It's not hard, Director Song."
Xue Yi responded politely.
Song Yong led them to an open space with no obstructions.
The sun is shining brightly in the sky, and the scorching sunlight is baking the earth.
A group of workers, both men and women, were standing in the open space in front of me, mostly middle-aged women, and many of them had beads of sweat on their foreheads.
"Our factory is small, specializing in clothing production, with only about 20 people in total."
Song Yong said apologetically, "No one knows anything about firefighting and first aid. I heard you were here to give a free lecture, so I stopped work for half a day to let everyone come. It's just that the place is simple, so I can only ask the leaders to give the lecture in this open space. I'm really sorry."
"It's okay, I understand. Let's get started then."
Xue Yi didn't hesitate at all, quickly getting into the swing of things. She had encountered harsher conditions before, so a bit of sun exposure was nothing. She'd already taken adequate sun protection measures before going out.
"First of all, as part of social responsibility, mastering basic first aid knowledge is a compulsory course for everyone..."
Her voice seemed to have a magical power, soothing the heat in everyone's hearts. "When an accident occurs, correct first aid measures not only save lives, but are also a crucial survival skill. Today, I will mainly explain cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), first aid for airway obstruction, trauma hemostasis, and treatment of heatstroke..."
When she got to the key point, she glanced at Yu Zeyuan and signaled him to bring the silicone model up.
After waiting for a few seconds without any response, Fatty Liu moved the model to the center of the venue.
Xue Yi squatted down and explained in detail while demonstrating the standard method on the model. Her expression was as focused as if she was facing real life:
"Cardiopulmonary resuscitation is also known as CPR. When you find someone suddenly collapses, remember the 'Call CAB' mantra:
Call: Make sure the environment is safe, tap shoulders and call the patient
Call: Dial 120 immediately and look for an AED defibrillator
C: Cross your hands and press the midpoint of the line connecting the two □□ with the base of your palms, 100-120 times per minute
A: Cleaning oral foreign matter
B: Give 2 breaths for every 30 compressions."
"For first aid for airway obstruction, if you encounter choking or asphyxiation, please immediately perform the Heimlich maneuver.
Hug the patient from behind, hold one fist above the navel, and wrap the other hand around the fist to thrust upward quickly.
When you are self-rescuing, you can use the back of a chair to quickly impact the upper abdomen. Remember the 'rock, paper, scissors' positioning method: two horizontal fingers above the navel (scissors), make a fist (rock), and wrap the other hand (paper)
…………
After Xue Yi finished explaining, more than half an hour had passed. It was time for fire safety publicity. Fatty Liu walked to the middle and began to explain loudly -
"Regarding fire safety, it also applies to life..."
It took one and a half hours to complete the public welfare lecture.
When it came to the final sales stage, as she expected, no one was willing to buy, so the factory director symbolically bought a fire extinguisher.
Yu Zeyuan watched the entire process and also figured out the ins and outs of it: the telemarketing department has a complete set of rhetoric, and when connecting with enterprises and institutions, they often carry out public welfare publicity under the banner of "local fire department cooperation unit", and can produce official documents as evidence when faced with doubts.
So in the eyes of ordinary people who don't know the truth, they are official representatives. But in fact, they are just a commercial public safety training company.
It's simply selling dog meat under the guise of selling mutton!
Yu Zeyuan sneered, full of contempt for such behavior and disdain from the bottom of his heart.
Xue Yi finally got a break, unscrewing the thermos and moistening her dry throat. Out of the corner of her eye, she saw Yu Zeyuan lazily leaning against the shadow of a nearby wall, looking down at his phone.
Ever since he joined the factory, he has been absent-minded and is perfunctory in helping others.
She frowned and walked over: "Are you dissatisfied with this job?"
Yu Zeyuan raised his eyes, a hint of undisguised sarcasm appeared on the corner of his mouth, "Oh, do you feel guilty for doing such a deceptive thing?"
"A lie?"
Xue Yi looked at him with amusement, as if she had heard something ridiculous. "Then tell me, what did I cheat them of? Money or sex?"
Yu Zeyuan locked his phone and stuffed it back into his pocket. The sarcasm in his eyes intensified. "Under the banner of public welfare, in the end, it's all about selling fire extinguishers and medical products. How is this any different from the tactics used to trick the elderly and sell overpriced health supplements?"
"Yeah?"
Xue Yi met his provocative gaze, her voice calm yet powerful. "Then tell me, before they start scamming you, would those health supplement sellers spend two hours, like we did, under the scorching sun, practicing first aid in life-threatening situations and how to properly respond to fires? Would they patiently answer every question?"
She paused, her eyes suddenly sharp. "Besides, we didn't force any sales from the beginning to the end. It was all voluntary. If this is also considered a scam, isn't the cost too high?"
Yu Zeyuan was left speechless by this series of questions.
He witnessed the entire process and found that there was indeed no forced buying or selling.
However, that kind of business model of "selling dog meat under the guise of sheep" still makes him extremely disgusted psychologically.
"It's normal for you to have such thoughts." Xue Yi's tone softened a bit as he explained, "After all, everyone wants to be a 'good person,' but if you change your mindset, how long can you sustain public welfare that isn't motivated by profit?"
"I admit that the nature of our position does have some misleading identity."
"But the knowledge we impart is real life-saving skills, and the philosophy we spread is truly about public safety. Its essence has never changed. Take today, for example, we impact 20 people a day, which translates to over 7,000 people a year. If even just one person learns something from our lectures and saves their own life or someone else's someday, isn't that a benefit?"
"So, we just need to do our duty and pass on truly useful knowledge to help this public welfare that can save lives last longer."
Xue Yi's voice was not passionate, but carried an unquestionable sense of conviction.
Yu Zeyuan stared blankly at her sweat-soaked temples and the pure determination in her eyes.
The pent-up depression in my heart seemed to be cleared away in an instant, and was replaced by an indescribable emotion that surged up bit by bit from the depths of my heart.
