After slacking off at the company all day, Bai Yu took his wife home as soon as he got off work.
As for Bai Yue, she's a senior executive now, and she often has to work overtime, not to mention that she's in charge of operations, and dinner time is the prime time for live-streaming sales.
So she needs to stay at the company a little longer to check things like the live stream data.
Of course, this doesn't happen to Bai Yue every day; his operations department rotates shifts, and today it just happened to be Bai Yue's turn.
Bai Yu didn't care. He had nothing to do, so why would he stay at the company on time instead of leaving work?
As for the idea of doing live-streaming sales for the first time after winning the championship to increase the popularity of the company's live-streaming room, that's completely unnecessary.
Their company is not what it was three years ago. Three years ago, their company's daily live streaming performance was not very good, and they needed Bai Yu to help out the live streaming room after she became a trending topic.
But not anymore. Now their company has a group of loyal fans, and even when Bai Yu doesn't appear in the live stream, their usual sales figures are still incredibly high.
Moreover, it's better if Bai Yu doesn't appear than if he does.
While Bai Yu's appearance might boost sales significantly, many of these orders might be placed impulsively by netizens, leading to a higher cancellation rate after the live stream ends.
For example, on the day Bai Yu achieved a triple Grand Slam, their company's sales were indeed phenomenal, with sales exceeding one billion yuan in two live streaming rooms.
However, in the following days, the return rate of the products they sold was also very high, several times higher than before.
Although the number of returned items ultimately accounted for only a small portion of sales, it still had a certain impact on their company's sales data.
With that in mind, Bai Yu decided not to do live-streaming sales. She might make a brief appearance later if she has time, but she'll leave the sales to the company's live-streamers.
So Bai Yu had absolutely nothing to do and could go wander around. If he was bored, he could take a stroll around the company.
When Bai Yu brought his wife back to the small fishing village, his car had just arrived at the village entrance when he saw that the village square was filled with tables and chairs.
Aside from a few that were of a uniform style, most of the tables and chairs were a motley collection, clearly belonging to various households for meals.
There was nothing we could do about it; the gathering was quite large this time. Just counting the number of tables, the village prepared a total of 150 tables.
Of these, 120 tables belonged to the villagers themselves, while the other 30 tables were prepared for the factory workers and their families.
Bai Yu's village is a large village with more than 200 households. With the addition of the factory workers, 150 tables would be just about enough.
With so many tables, if you find a place that caters to large banquets, they naturally won't have that many tables. Besides, their village isn't planning on holding a continuous banquet; it's just that everyone eats together once, and then goes back to work or something.
Since there weren't enough tables, the villagers themselves contributed by bringing out all the tables and chairs from their homes, thus creating a total of 150 tables.
In addition, these tables are definitely not enough to fit in just a small square; tables have even been set up on some of the village's main roads.
This caused Bai Yu considerable trouble on his way home. He didn't dare drive too fast, for fear that his car would hit the tables and chairs.
That's not the most important thing. The thought of being the main character at tomorrow's dinner party makes his scalp tingle.
According to their local custom, if Bai Yu is hosting a dinner party, he is required to go around to each table and offer toasts.
One hundred and fifty tables! Even if everyone drinks beverages, he probably couldn't handle it.
Well, things will work themselves out. We'll see what happens tomorrow. Let's focus on getting through tonight first.
The next morning at eight o'clock, Bai Yu woke up early, but he didn't go out and stayed at home.
Not only Bai Yu, but also Li Xue, Bai Yue, and even Bai's parents didn't go to work; the whole family took leave and stayed home.
Today is a special day for their family. This should be the first major event they have held in recent years. Although the village paid for it, it was nominally Bai Yu's responsibility.
So Bai Yu got up early in the morning and was making preparations at home.
There's really nothing to prepare. He just stays at home, and when the time comes, he goes to the small square to show his face, has a meal with everyone, and goes from table to table toasting.
Of course, if he really felt bored, he could go out for a stroll, but if he did, he would have to face all sorts of praise from the villagers.
After all the praise, Bai Yu would start to have doubts: Was the person described as so perfect really him? Was he really that perfect?
Even someone as thick-skinned as Bai Yu has his limits, so he obediently stayed at home.
At 11 a.m., he went to the village square. His seat was in the very center of the square. The people sitting at the same table with him were not elders, but a group of young people around his age.
Times have changed. While some rules still need to be followed, things have become much more lenient in certain aspects.
Like this time, the main focus of the main table was to create a relaxed atmosphere. The people sitting at the table with Bai Yu were all his childhood friends. Since everyone was familiar with each other, it was easier to get along.
We're all just having a meal together, there's no need to make it so uncomfortable.
Anyway, during lunch today, Bai Yu ate with a group of people who were cheap, and during the toasting process, Bai Yu also went with them.
Bai Yu doesn't drink alcohol; he substitutes it with beverages. However, with 150 tables to be served, even drinking beverages is still a bit much for him.
If it weren't for the fact that Bai Yu had quite a few people who could help him, he wouldn't have needed lunch; he could have just drunk beverages.
After lunch, Bai Yu joined his group of friends for a chat, reminiscing about their childhood days that could never be relived.
Unfortunately, these limited days did not last long. Bai Yu only stayed at home for five days before he received a call from Li Shuang.
"Brother Yu, we have news! Finally, some good news! The advance team has located the sunken ship, and we can set off at any time!"
"What? We found it? Wow, after preparing for so long, we've finally found the location of the shipwreck!"
Shuangzi, call the salvage ship and tell them to hurry up and arrange manpower and load all supplies onto the ship. We need to leave as soon as possible; I can't wait!
Bai Yu was very excited when he received Li Shuang's call, after all, his purpose in coming back this time was to salvage the sunken ship.
Now that he's waited so long, he's finally received good news. How could he not be happy?
Bai Yu then spoke a few more words with Li Shuang on the phone before driving home.
"Brother Bai, good news from the exploration ship? Are you guys getting ready to set sail?"
Seeing that Bai Yu had hung up the phone, Li Xue, who was sitting in the passenger seat, also asked a question.
"Yes, they've been at sea for almost a month now, and finally some good news has come back."
I asked Shuangzi to contact the salvage ship. This time, we need to set sail as quickly as possible and try to return as soon as possible.
Xue'er, Yueyue, do you two want to come along? Want to see how they salvage a sunken ship?
"I'm not going. If you all leave, someone has to keep an eye on things at the company. Sister Xue'er, are you going?"
Bai Yue immediately rejected Bai Yu's suggestion. She had no interest in salvaging the sunken ship, nor did she care much about how it was done.
However, she was quite interested in what was salvaged; in other words, she was interested in things that could make money and were of value.
Since Bai Yue isn't going, Li Xue definitely won't go either. Staying home is a good option, as she can go to work with Bai Yue.
There were only three people on the salvage ship this time: Bai Yu, Wang Hai, and Li Shuang.
Lu Sheng is not going with them this time. The company's live-streaming e-commerce business has been booming recently. While making money, it has also brought about many other problems, and Lu Sheng needs to stay and deal with them.
Moreover, they don't just go out to sea and never come back; they can return at any time.
Don't forget the location of this shipwreck salvage operation. It's just a tiny bit outside the South China Sea. Although it's not our territory, our ships often come here for maritime operations.
Among them, Yuxue Shipping Company has the most ships. While their company doesn't have ships passing through here every day, it's fair to say that ships pass through here every two or three days.
If Bai Yu and his crew get bored on the ship after setting sail, they can board their own company's fishing boat and leave.
Coming back is convenient, which also means going there is equally convenient. If Lu Sheng wants to see how the salvage is being carried out, he can contact the shipping company. If there are any ships going that are passing by, they can give him a ride.
This is something that I think no company can necessarily do, since the concept of whether it's convenient or not is too difficult to define. If it's not convenient, taking a detour will increase costs.
But Bai Yu's company wasn't worried. They had a lot of fishing boats, and they went to various sea areas to carry out maritime operations. It was perfectly normal for them to be passing by.
After Bai Yu and Li Shuang hung up the phone, the latter immediately called the person in charge of the salvage ship to inform them that they could load supplies and prepare to set sail.
The departure date is set for the day after tomorrow, September 16th.
Two days passed in the blink of an eye...
As September 16th arrived, Bai Yu, along with Wang Hai and Li Shuang, arrived at the city's dock at 11:00 AM and went to the salvage boat.
Without any unnecessary words, Bai Yu arrived at the dock and boarded the salvage vessel right in front of him.
With a whistle, the salvage ship slowly sailed out of the dock and headed towards the location of the sunken ship.
