It was quite a struggle to persuade Yuan Ge.
As soon as Zhao Jiahui made the offer, this guy got up and tried to run away.
Zhao Jiahui originally wanted to help him out; he figured it was better to earn some pocket money than just sit around doing nothing, right?
Furthermore, it would allow me to get off to a good start.
In sales, starting with getting to know people is understandable.
Zhao Jiahui pulled Yuan Ge to sit down: "Sit down, what's so expensive about it!"
Yuan Ge said, "You're kidding me, this isn't expensive? How much does a tricycle that can haul goods cost?"
“You can’t think like that,” Zhao Jiahui said. “The tricycle is for hauling goods; you have to go back and forth to unload them, right? Do you have the physique for that?”
Yuan Ge fell silent.
Zhao Jiahui said, "We're old classmates, so I won't rip you off. I'll give you a 500 yuan discount, and then I'll help you get a loan. I'll cover the down payment, since you owe me. How about that?"
Yuan Ge was overjoyed: "Really?"
"How could it be fake?"
"So what do you mean by this?"
"It's about advertising," Zhao Jiahui said. "If you go out and solicit customers, and people see you, then I'll see increased sales, right?"
"Uh," Yuan Ge said, "So you're just using me as a tool."
"Don't put it so harshly, aren't you making money too?"
Yuan Ge thought for a moment and slapped his thigh: "I'll listen to you this time. If we don't make money, I'll hold you accountable."
"As long as you're shameless enough to recruit people, I'll cover any losses if you don't make any money."
Yuan Ge nodded.
"Let's go test drive the car."
Zhao Jiahui pulled Yuan Ge to the backyard and began to teach him step by step.
The tuk-tuk is easy to drive; it's just a matter of shifting gears.
In addition, Yuan Ge had experience driving tractors, so he was quite adept at it.
Finally, Zhao Jiahui said, "I'll put a sticker on your shopping cart."
"Why put this up? It doesn't look good."
"I'm afraid someone will investigate you, and if they do, just say you're buying groceries, understand?"
Yuan Ge exclaimed, "Don't tell me this thing can't get an operating license!"
Zhao Jiahui waved his hand: "There's no point in doing that. You just do it!"
"Okay, okay, I'll listen to you."
Zhao Jiahui rode in a tuk-tuk, while Yuan Ge drove the car; they planned to try their luck.
Upon arriving at the train station, the two leaned against the train.
The train is about to stop here and enter the station.
Zhao Jiahui said, "When someone comes out, call them and ask for a price based on how far the journey is."
Yuan Ge shrank his neck and nodded.
At that moment, outside the train station, there were more than a dozen Daihatsu trucks waiting for fares.
One of them, named Da Qiangzi, looked at Yuan Ge, glanced at the tuk-tuk, and asked, "What's this thing?"
“The car,” Zhao Jiahui said.
"I know it's a car, what kind of car?"
"Bumper car".
Daqiangzi scratched his head, completely bewildered, then crawled back into the apartment and waited patiently for the train to arrive.
Daqiangzi's Dafa wasn't a new car; it was a used car he bought online.
These cars were initially used as taxis in big cities, but over time, these old Daihatsu vehicles were phased out and moved to smaller cities to continue serving their purpose.
Jiangcheng is a place that is neither too big nor too small.
Normally, the taxi fare is 80 cents per kilometer, but in practice, it's not that precise. Basically, they just ask where you're going and then give you a quote.
Of course, the number of people and the amount of luggage will become bargaining chips for pricing.
During this period, supervision was not very effective, and it was normal for prices to be arbitrarily set. If you really managed to rip someone off, one trip could cost as much as five trips.
There aren't many foolish passengers like this, so every driver has to carefully distinguish them, have a keen eye, and tailor their approach accordingly.
Finally, the train arrived at the station.
A large crowd emerged.
Daqiangzi stubbed out his cigarette and immediately ran to the exit.
My gaze began to sweep around. In this day and age, to afford a taxi, one must at least be well-dressed and look like a wealthy person.
Daqiangzi has been found.
A man carrying a briefcase.
Da Qiangzi hurriedly stepped forward: "Sir, where is this? Do you need a taxi?"
The man exclaimed, "Ah!" and asked, "How much does the Jiangcheng Research Institute cost?"
"Huh?" Daqiangzi was a little confused: "What place is this? I'm a native of this area and I've never heard of it before."
The man said, "The Morning Star Research Institute."
"The Morning Star?" Daqiangzi said, "That's in Chishui County. I know that place. It's quite a distance."
“It’s from Chishui County, it’s from Jiangcheng!” the man said. “It’s the building with the eggshell shape.”
Daqiangzi slapped his thigh: "If you had told me about the eggs earlier, I would have known! We all call that place the Egg Nest. Come on, just give me 10 yuan."
The man was visiting Jiangcheng for the first time and didn't know how far it was. After thinking for a moment, he said, "Let's go."
Da Qiangzi was secretly pleased: He had indeed ripped them off!
Actually, it's not far from the train station to Egg Nest, and the normal price is only 3 yuan.
The two had just arrived near Dafa.
The man then heard someone shouting: "Anyone need a ride? People's Hospital, Stadium, Park, all one yuan. Metal Company, Thermal Power Plant, Waterworks, Jiangcheng Research Institute, Trade City, all one yuan and fifty cents!"
The man sighed and walked over: "Jiangcheng Research Institute, one yuan and fifty cents?"
Zhao Jiahui said, "Yes, it's only 1.5 yuan a piece not far from the city. Shall we go?"
"Sit here?"
Zhao Jiahui opened the car door and pointed: "Don't let its small size fool you, look how clean and comfortable it is inside!"
The man took one look and thought, "Wow, the interior is really impressive!"
The man thought about it and realized this would save him a lot of money, so he went inside.
Zhao Jiahui gave Yuan Ge a look.
