There is still one thing, it is not the Bitcoins in his personal account, but the 1 million US dollars that Liu Jianni transferred to the account of Yiyi Takeout Network not long ago. If we really talk about it, it is probably enough to pay for many, many delivery trucks.
But he just didn't plan to pay the money, so he came to talk to the boss. Otherwise, there would be many other ways to spend money on publicity.
The boss was telling the truth. If Lin Yi hadn't come to him to raise this issue, he would never have thought that the carriage of the express truck could be used as an advertising space.
If Lin Yi just helped him redesign the packaging for free, then he would not refuse this free benefit. But now that Lin Yi proposed to put his own advertisement on his car, he felt that the rare product was worth living in.
The geese are plucking their feathers and raising prices while sitting on the ground. This is the nature of a businessman.
Lin Yi, of course, had to argue with reason: "Boss, we refurbished the car for you and brought our slogan and website. This is a win-win situation. It wouldn't be appropriate to pay additional money."
The boss waved his hand and said nonchalantly: "If it doesn't fit, forget it. I think the car looks pretty good now."
He showed an expression of indifference, then put on his mobile phone and went out, leaving the small office filled with express delivery to two outsiders.
Of course Lin Yi and Zhang Xiaochuan would not do any petty theft here. The latter complained: "Why is this boss like this? He is so greedy for money. So what are you going to do now?"
As a business person, there is nothing wrong with being greedy for money.
Lin Yiyi had expected that this matter would not be easy to negotiate, so he was still in a good mood, and the boss just left just now was a bit pretentious.
He obviously wanted to manipulate Lin Yi.
It is human nature for two people to do something that is obviously beneficial to both of them, but ultimately cannot be done because one party thinks that the benefits to the other party are greater than his own.
Lin Yi was very patient and planned to visit again at another time.
Of course, he will not give this boss unlimited opportunities. If he is really stubborn, Lin Yi will change his target. After all, not all express delivery stations of all universities in Yangcheng are under his control.
When he went there again the next day, he found the boss waiting there leisurely, as if he was sure he would show up again.
"What's your last name, boss?"
This was the second time we met, and everyone had already interacted with each other. Lin Yi politely thought that we should get to know each other.
"If your surname is Chen, calling me Uncle Chen at your age is not taking advantage of you."
"May I ask what the relationship between Uncle Chen and Boss Chen from Shentong is?"
"hey-hey!"
Boss Chen smiled and said, "If I were bragging to others outside, I would say that Chairman Chen of Shenzhen Tong is my uncle."
"But this is not the first time that we have dealt with each other. I won't tell you any nonsense. Boss Chen and I have no relationship at all except maybe we were a family five hundred years ago."
Lin Yi didn't say much. After introducing himself, he still mentioned the incident yesterday.
However, this "Uncle Chen" obviously still wanted to rip him off and refused to let go. Lin Yi's appearance today as he expected made him feel even more confident.
No matter how hard Lin Yi spoke, he remained unmoved, so when he left, Lin Yi told him:
"Uncle Chen, there are many schools in this area. You are not the only express delivery station. The reason why I started with you is just because we started from a large school in Yangcheng. I like to do things from beginning to end, but I don't care about your
Patience has its limits."
"You don't have to think that you've got me. I'll let you know in advance that I'll come to see you tomorrow. But if you still don't let go, I'll find someone else."
Uncle Chen was obviously a little annoyed by Lin Yi's attitude: "You are a little thief, do you know how to negotiate business? I asked you to quote a price yourself. You didn't say a word. How can I talk to you?"
Of course Lin Yi would not give him a quotation, except for the cost of cleaning the car, he was determined not to pay any extra money.
However, Boss Chen's accent gave him some inspiration, but since he had already let go of harsh words today, it was not suitable to continue the conversation, so he planned to talk about it when he comes tomorrow.
Lin Yi and Shao Yu are living in a small rented house in Shipai Village these days. Of course, it's not like he has done nothing but looking for Boss Chen from this express station. They still go to other universities around them step by step.
Keep expanding.
Early the next morning, Lin Yi and the others got up and went out as usual to have a quick breakfast.
In order to save time in the past two days, they each bought two steamed buns on the roadside and ate them while walking. Lin Yi thought that he could not let these three college students with him live such a miserable life of social animals in advance, so he decided to improve it for them.
Meals.
He looked around on the small road in the village and chose a small shop with the name "Lin'an Xiaolongbao" and went in.
Well, by the way, it’s also a way to satisfy your craving.
Every time Lin Yi sees the brand "Lin'an Xiaolongbao" in other places, he feels it is amazing, because although Lin'an people do like to eat Xiaolongbao, there is no shop called Lin'an Xiaolongbao on the streets of Lin'an.
Long Bao.
Usually those with this brand are ordinary breakfast shops on the roadside. The quality of the restaurants varies from good to bad, but considering the overall price, there will probably be no surprises.
But this time Lin Yi actually met an unexpected person. Whether it was a surprise or not is hard to say yet.
"Uncle Chen, are you having breakfast here too?"
Yes, the store is very small, with a total of three or four tables. Sitting on one of the tables is the boss Chen of the express delivery station that he has been looking for these two days.
He didn't expect to meet Lin Yi here: "I often come to this store, and you guys live here too? I thought you all lived in the school."
Lin Yi did not explain, but glanced at his desk. Boss Chen had a big appetite. To eat two portions of xiaolongbao by himself, he had to add some soy milk and fried dough sticks.
"Uncle Chen likes to eat Xiao Long Bao?"
"I live in Lin'an. I've been eating Xiao Long Bao since I was a kid, but after I came out, the ones cooked outside always felt a bit boring. This one is considered a good one nearby."
As expected.
This was what Lin Yi thought of when he heard his accent yesterday, so he asked again: "Uncle Chen is from Tonglu, right?"
Tonglu is a county under Lin'an and is known as the "hometown of private express delivery". The bosses of three links and one express delivery are all from this county. They brought a group of soldiers from their hometown and scattered them all over the country. They are the famous express delivery "Tonglu Gang" in the industry.
”.
The reason why Boss Chen said he was from Lin'an instead of Tonglu was just because he felt that no one had heard of a less famous county in Lingnan, thousands of miles away.
He raised his head: "Why, have you heard of Tonglu?"
