Chapter 206: The Highest Kindness is Like Water
Li Ke's courier company was in the new urban area and wasn't hard to find. The car arrived downstairs in less than half an hour. Zhang Lei, who was about to ship the goods, dropped her off at the company entrance and left.
It was dinner time, and the traffic was heavy. She called Li Ke, and within a few minutes, Li Ke came downstairs. When he saw her, he smiled and asked, "Why did you come here so suddenly?"
"Why? Can't come?"
"Not really!" Li Ke smiled as he welcomed her in and casually asked, "Have you eaten?"
"Not yet. I came straight here after work. I'm a little anxious!"
Tian Xin said casually and quickly followed him into the elevator.
When he heard her anxious voice, the smile on Li Ke's face disappeared immediately, and he immediately asked nervously: "What's wrong? What happened?"
"Nothing, I just have a little question I want to ask you!" Tian Xin said with a smile. Seeing that he frowned slightly, she smiled and said, "Don't be nervous, it's not a big deal!"
The elevator stopped on the 6th floor. Li Ke pressed the door and let Tian Xin go out first. The two walked to the end of the long corridor and entered Li Ke's company.
The company wasn't large, with only a few offices and a large hall that could hold about ten people. By this time, the employees had already left work, and the hall was empty. Li Ke took Tian Xin straight into the office.
The layout of the office is very simple. Apart from a desk and two chairs, there is only a wooden bookshelf.
Li Ke pointed at the chair opposite and said with a smile: "This place is simple, don't laugh at me, sit down!"
"No, no, it's pretty good!" Tian Xin sat down on the chair and stared at the calligraphy on the opposite wall. "Your calligraphy is pretty good!"
"No way! Stop teasing me! How could I possibly have that ability?" Li Ke poured her a glass of water, turned around and glanced at the calligraphy on the wall, and said with a smile: "This was a gift! I begged for a long time to get this painting!"
The words on the wall were framed, and the four powerful characters "Shangshan Ruoshui" were extremely eye-catching. Tian Xin smiled and said, "A gift? I heard that you recently signed a few new express delivery cooperation agreements. Could these words be a gift from someone?"
"It's indeed a gift!" Li Ke said with a smile: "But how did you know?"
"Which one are you asking about? The gift or the contract?"
"Aren't these two the same question?" Li Ke said with a smile.
Tian Xin smiled, exchanged glances with Li Ke, and didn't continue.
Li Ke checked the time and said a little embarrassedly, "I didn't know you were coming. I have an appointment tonight, so I might be excused for a while! What was the problem you just mentioned?"
"Are you in a hurry to leave?"
"It's okay, there's still some time, go ahead!"
Seeing that she had arrived at the wrong time, Tian Xin quickly went over the questions that had occurred to her on the way here, and blurted them all out in one go.
"Since you're in a hurry, I'll just say it straight!" Tian Xin cleared her throat and said:
“Recently, my fellow villagers have reported that it takes about a week for the goods we send out to reach customers, which has led to a lot of negative reviews online.
With the negative reviews, not only has the order rate dropped, but the return rate has actually increased. Some customers are so anxious that they can't wait for the goods and just return them! It's getting harder and harder to do business now! I wonder what Mr. Li thinks about this matter? "
"Is that true?"
Li Ke seemed unconvinced and asked suspiciously, "Didn't the driver who was sent over pick up the goods in time?"
"No, the driver is very prompt and goes once a day. But when it comes to your place, I don't know when it will leave!"
Tian Xin sighed with a worried look on her face and said, "Mr. Li, I know you are busy and may not pay attention to these things!
But, let me be presumptuous and say that you still need to go down there and take a look.
Although our cooperation is small and not worth mentioning, you also know that these villagers have put in a lot of effort to build this small shop. If it can't continue because of this problem, there will be no place to cry!"
After saying that, she glanced at Li Ke and asked tentatively: "How do you think we should deal with this matter?"
Li Ke was silent for a few seconds, then after a moment of thought, he asked her, "When did this start happening?"
"About two weeks ago!" Tian Xin said, "The daily return rate has recently reached 10 percent! We can't sustain this!"
Li Ke listened with a frown, then casually opened his computer and typed a line of words, his eyes stern: "Any other questions? Tell me all!"
"And then..."
"What?"
"Could you tell them to be gentle when sorting? Some of these things are fragile and can be easily broken!"
"Anything else?" Li Ke's hands flew across the keyboard quickly, his eyes fixed on the screen. There was a faint reflection on his face, and he looked extremely calm and serious.
Tian Xin thought about what she was going to say next and didn't know whether she should speak or not.
Seeing that she hadn't moved, Li Ke stopped and glanced at her: "Anything else? Keep going!"
"And then..."
"Sword-cooked wine is tasteless, for whom shall I drink this cup..."
As soon as she opened her mouth, Li Ke's cell phone suddenly rang.
Li Ke picked it up and took a look. The expression on his face relaxed a little. He stood up with a smile, picked up the phone and said to her: "I'll take a call", then went out.
Li Ke didn't come back for a long time. She was bored waiting and looked up at the words on the wall again.
The highest good is like water. Water benefits all things without contention.
So this is his state of mind.
Tian Xin lowered her head and smiled, then took out her cell phone and quickly sent a text message.
The other side came back quickly. She took a look, got up and walked out.
Li Ke was walking back after finishing his call. Seeing her coming out, he was a little puzzled: "Why did you come out?"
"I thought you left?"
"No, I just answered a call!" Li Ke raised his phone: "Let's finish talking first, I'll take you there later!"
The two returned to the office and continued the previous topic.
"What did you want to say just now?" Li Ke asked.
"Nothing more, just those two questions, how do you think we should deal with them?"
Li Ke stared at the computer for a while, his expression a little serious. He hesitated and said to Tian Xin: "The two problems you mentioned are not difficult to solve! How about this, I will go and check the situation tomorrow and give you an answer as soon as possible."
"Thank you so much!" Tian Xin said as she stood up and said to Li Ke with a smile, "Mr. Li, I hope you can give me a reply as soon as possible. The sooner this matter is handled, the more trouble we can avoid."
"Of course. Don't worry, I'll give you an answer by tomorrow night at the latest."
After saying that, Li Ke also stood up and walked out with Tian Xin.
The two came down from upstairs, and Li Ke drove the car: "Are you going home? I'll take you there!"
"Oh, no thanks..."
Tian Xin was just saying a few polite words to Li Ke when a figure stood in front of her. The figure glanced at her, then turned to Li Ke in the car and said, "You go ahead and do your work. I'll take her..."
