Chapter 494: Roll up your sleeves and get to work
The day after Double Eleven, Liu Lan and Zhang Pei were still nervous and could not relax. Their company was still very busy, but now they were busy with the issue of delivery.
There are simply not enough staff in the warehouse. There are more than 30 workers in total, and there are 60,000 bags of cat food waiting to be delivered. This means that on average one worker has to deliver 2,000 bags of cat food. Even the most diligent person would not be able to handle the work even if they work from day to night.
Zhang Pei plans to find 30 temporary workers from the labor market, but the end of the year is the peak hiring period, especially around Double Eleven, when there is a shortage of labor. The labor market said that it is no problem to find a few people, but they need to find 30 people immediately, and they must be reliable. They need time and cannot guarantee that they can recruit people immediately.
The delivery cannot wait. Customers who placed orders before noon on Double Eleven Day are not on the list of delayed delivery. Without the 50-yuan coupon, they may not understand the hard work of Liu Lan and others.
Some customers’ cats were running out of cat food at home, so they were waiting to eat this bag of fresh cat food from Liu Man’s store. Some customers were impatient and couldn’t stand the delay in delivery, so they kept urging the store! The customer service staff were overwhelmed. Some of these people even said they would cancel the order if the store didn’t deliver the food.
If we continue to deliver at the current efficiency and encounter this kind of pushy customer again, by then the opportunity will be gone and the money will be gone before we get it.
Zhang Pei was very anxious. She told Liu Lan about the dire situation and came up with an idea, asking Liu Lan for her opinion. "Can you ask your classmates to help? They don't have to do any physical work, just pack and box the cat food. Each person will be paid 3,000 yuan."
Liu Lan thought about it and realized that today was Sunday and everyone should not have classes, so she called Sun Weiwei to ask if she was free.
The video of Zhong Jiangnan's company has been successfully released. "Cute Pet Hospital" 4 has not started filming yet. Sun Weiwei has no urgent matters for the time being. She is studying in the classroom at the moment. When she heard Liu Man's request, she agreed without saying a word and took the initiative to say, "I'll ask Chengfeng and others to help."
...
...
Liu Lan called Liang Shengnan again, and Liang Shengnan was even more generous, "I'll call all the boys in our class over." Their class not only has a classical literature department, but also an archaeology department. Liang Shengnan called out in the class WeChat group, and everyone agreed. Those boys who took advantage of the weekend to lie in bed in the dormitory immediately woke up, and they were not so active in class during normal times.
Because everyone realized that by following Liu Lan, they seemed to be helping and making selfless contributions, but in fact, they all gained huge invisible benefits.
They earned extra credits for volunteer activities and became advanced role models in the school; by shooting an advertising video, they not only earned 2,000 yuan, but also made the news and were featured on the school’s official Weibo account, becoming known as good young people who bravely stepped forward to help others. Their parents even saw them on TV and were extremely proud of them!
Besides, I can earn another 3,000 yuan this time. What part-time job can a student do to earn so much in a day? !
Liu Lan was just about to contact the bus company to rent a bus to bring her classmates over when Tao Zhiyao suddenly sent her a message saying that Sun Weiwei had also called her and that she and her driver had already gone to Capital University to pick someone up.
While waiting for her classmates to come over, Liu Lan sent a WeChat message to Yu Zhan, asking him if he was feeling better.
Yu Zhan still replied in seconds, "Don't worry, I'm fine, just a little sleepy, I'll continue to sleep for a while."
It was only eight o'clock in the morning, and Liu Lan didn't think much about it. She typed, "Okay, I won't disturb you. Go back to sleep."
About an hour later, the commuter bus from Tao Zhiwei's company stopped at the door of the warehouse. Jiang Chengfeng and his roommates ABC, as well as the boys from the Classical Literature Department and the Archaeology Department, totaled exactly thirty people. In addition, there were three girls, Sun Weiwei, Liang Shengnan and Tao Zhiyao.
Li Xiaoru had to rehearse for a concert and time was tight, so Liu Lan didn't call her; Miao Xiaomei's deathly Barbie makeup in the video went viral on the Internet, with many people leaving messages on her Weibo and paying her to do their makeup. Weekends are her busiest time.
With so many college students in the courtyard at once, the atmosphere became lively. Liu Lan first took everyone on a brief tour of her company. She pointed to the piles of boxes of cat food in the warehouse and said to the students, "Your task is to take out the cat food from these boxes according to the specifications, and then repack it according to the online orders and put on the delivery notes."
The cat food shipped by Xisilan Company is certainly not in bulk bags, but in uniform specifications and packaged in boxes. A large box contains 10 bags.
Sun Weiwei looked up at the top of the pile of boxes and asked, "Do we need to unpack all these boxes?"
Liu Man nodded, "Yes."
The students were shocked.
“Oh my god, so many!!!”
“This workload is much greater than I thought.”
"I just counted them and estimated there were several thousand boxes."
…
Liu Man felt a little embarrassed.
