On the first day he became a secretary, Lu Changsheng thought about what he must do, but after thinking for a long time, he had no idea.
At ten o'clock in the evening, when the lights in the office were still on, Lu Changsheng realized that Gu Yueqin hadn't gotten off work yet. It was no wonder that he used to work part-time and basically left after work.
Walking into the office, looking at Gu Yueqin's tired face, Lu Changsheng felt distressed in his heart again. He handed over the poured water: "Sister Yueqin, drink some water."
Gu Yueqin finally came back to her senses, but did not pick up the water glass. She just smiled and asked, "What time is it?"
"It's ten o'clock." Lu Changsheng replied.
"It's so late!" Gu Yueqin sighed, but looked at him in surprise, "Then why haven't you gotten off work yet?"
"I'm your secretary, how can I get off work if you don't get off work?" Lu Changsheng asked.
Gu Yueqin was stunned. This was the first time he saw Lu Changsheng dare to face him like this without blushing or being shy.
"Hurry up and get off work. It's not good for young people to stay up late." Gu Yueqin stood up and started to pack the documents.
"Let me do it." Lu Changsheng moved the wheelchair to help. Originally, Gu Yueqin wanted to insist on cleaning up by herself, but Lu Changsheng added, "If you don't let me do something, I won't be able to take advantage of this secretary.
salary."
Gu Yueqin thought about it. If she did everything by herself but left Lu Changsheng as his secretary, it would really seem like she was sympathizing with him. Of course she knew that Lu Changsheng had a strong self-esteem, so she just nodded and handed over the key. Tell him: "After you have packed up, go back from get off work as soon as possible. Don't be too late."
Lu Changsheng nodded: "Okay."
Seeing how attentive he was, Gu Yueqin couldn't help but nodded. When she walked to the door, she suddenly thought of something and turned around and said, "Changsheng, do you have a place to stay?"
Lu Changsheng, who was cleaning up, was stunned for a moment, nodded quickly and said: "Yes, yes."
"Oh." Gu Yueqin felt relieved and was about to leave, but turned around and said, "If you don't have a place to live, go to my house. My place is empty and it is empty. If you go out to rent a house, you also need money."
Hearing this, Lu Changsheng was moved in his heart, but he smiled and did not answer. After Gu Yueqin left, he got out of the wheelchair and sat down on her chair.
He took out all the documents he had just packed up and read them one by one. With his reading speed, he had finished reading most of the documents in less than a few minutes, but his face also darkened.
, because the situation of Qinghe Express is very bad now.
Both the financial situation and the business situation are almost at the end of their rope. Not only is they not making any money, but they are also investing large sums of money into it. If things continue like this, I am afraid that not only the company will collapse, but even Gu Yueqin herself will be impoverished.
.
When he thought of Gu Yueqin's frowning look, the protective desire in Lu Changsheng's heart became stronger and stronger. He had to do something for her.
After careful analysis, Lu Changsheng discovered the problem. Qinghe Express is one of the earliest local express delivery companies, so it is naturally competitive.
But in recent years, local express companies in Qinghe have blossomed everywhere. As long as you hire a few people, get a few motorcycles or motorcycles, and rent a shop, you can set up an express company. In the larger express companies, they have their own
A few small trucks can help with logistics within the province.
The main business source of Gu Yueqin's Qinghe Express Company is still the small parcels delivered by the large express companies in Qinghe. This is also because Qinghe is too small. Setting up a branch here will make those large express companies lose money, so many large express companies are here.
All small places choose to find independent agents like Qinghe Express.
In this way, not only do they not need to bear the risk themselves, but if something goes wrong, they can directly seek compensation from a small company like Qinghe Express, which is equivalent to killing two birds with one stone.
Although Gu Yueqin still maintained profits as the number of such small express delivery companies increased, the financial statements suddenly turned from profits to losses six months ago, and as time passed, the losses increased every month.
As the number of customers increased, Lu Changsheng discovered that the original agency rights of five large express delivery companies that Qinghe Express had obtained had changed from five to two in the past six months.
This directly caused Qinghe Express to lose at least half of its small package business. In this shopping era, the small profits of small package express add up to a lot. As the times continue to develop, the business volume will only increase.
has decreased, but large express companies have almost monopolized most of the small shipments.
Places like Qinghe only have Qinghe Express Company's business share because large companies will lose money when setting up agency points. But even so, this small package business accounts for 60% of Qinghe Express's profits. Now it has lost half of it all at once.
The above is equivalent to losing more than 30% of profits.
Qinghe Express's large orders for provincial transportation and logistics are also becoming less and less. Basically, there are only three trips a month. In the past, there were at least a dozen trips a month, which maintained Qinghe Express Company's 40% profit. Now it has almost dropped to the minimum.
point.
"No wonder those drivers didn't go out to deliver goods in the morning." Lu Changsheng understood, but what was even more strange to him was that Qinghe Express's service had always been very good. It rarely received complaints, and then it was withdrawn as an agent by a large express company.
Lu Changsheng took out another list. This is all the express companies in Qinghe. There are twenty in total, and Qinghe Express is ranked second.
The first one is an express delivery company called Beitong. The source of its business is no different from Qinghe Express, but it is obviously much stronger.
He looked at some of the data listed by Gu Yueqin and found that most of Qinghe's original business had gone to Beitong. He knew the strength of this express company very well, but if he wanted to say that their express delivery service was good, Lu Changsheng would
I really laughed. If Beitong Express didn't win over Qinghe Express Company's business through service quality, then it must have used some special means.
When Lu Changsheng picked up more previous information and checked it, he found that it was indeed the case. The entire Qinghe Express had encountered many complaints in the past six months, and most of them were well-documented. This led to the large express delivery companies above
The company has completely lost confidence in them.
Seeing this, Lu Changsheng could hardly believe that Qinghe Express, which had always focused on service quality, had received so many complaints. Did Gu Yueqin not see it?
"Impossible!" Lu Changsheng denied directly. If Gu Yueqin was not capable, she should have given up three years ago and would not have persisted until now. "Could it be that..."
After thinking for a long time, Lu Changsheng finally organized the documents, put them all back, locked the door and left the company worriedly.
Although he still didn't know how to help Gu Yueqin, he did not give up his cultivation. He still came to the mountain opposite Qinghe and began to accumulate Qi. He knew very well that it was useless to worry before he thought of a way. On the contrary,
Accumulate your own strength, it may come in handy when the time comes.
So he quickly entered that kind of state where his mind was as calm as water and mysterious. It seemed that because of the belief in his heart, he practiced very quickly this time. After a few hours, Lu Changsheng could hold his breath for ten minutes.
He opened his eyes, with joy on his face: "As long as you hold your breath for an hour, you can introduce the breath into your body."
But he was not satisfied with the status quo. Now he had many things to do, and the only way to increase his strength was to increase his strength, so he quickly started practicing again.
But as soon as he closed his eyes and hadn't done a few rounds of breathing, he felt a sense of alertness. When he opened his eyes, a conversation came from a distance.
"Are you sure the deal is here?"
"The agreed place is here."
"They won't do anything wrong!"
"A gangster eats a gangster? They dare."
"The people in Nanxiang are very cunning. This deal is so big, so it's better to be careful. They can even trick gangs in Hong Kong."
"Can the gangs in Hong Kong compare with our Beichuan? Unless Nanxiang is ready to go to war with us again. However, you are right, this transaction is huge, so it is better to be careful."
With that said, the two of them came towards the mountain here. Lu Changsheng, who was practicing, felt strange. Did he encounter the underworld doing a midnight transaction?
Thinking that these gangsters are really weird, they would go to the top of a hill not far from the cemetery in the middle of the night to do business without fear of seeing ghosts.
However, Lu Changsheng was not prepared to provoke them. Generally, gangsters have guns. Although he can emerge as a ghost, his body is very fragile. If he is harmed by Chi Yu, the consequences will be disastrous. He does not want to be a ghost who cannot return to his body.
The lonely ghost.
But there is only one way down the mountain. Seeing that the two of them are on it, they can't jump into the Qinghe River, right?
When he was struggling with no countermeasures, Lu Changsheng had an idea and quickly climbed up a tree. Fortunately, his tree climbing skills were not lost, and with the help of his thoughts, he did not cause much movement.
Just a few seconds after he climbed up, these two people came up. Through night vision, Lu Changsheng found that these two people were very fierce and had guns. This was the first time he saw them in reality.
He got a gun, so he became nervous. If they found him and fired a few shots at the tree, he wouldn't be able to escape even if he wanted to.
Of course, Lu Changsheng was already prepared to take action. Once they discovered him, the two soul knives would kill them.
Fortunately, they didn't notice it. Although the two of them were alert, they didn't notice the person in the tree. They just looked around for a while and then looked towards the cemetery over there.
Lu Changsheng's eyes were focused on the hand of one of the tall men, which was a black lockbox. Under the night light, he found that the tall man looked very nervous about the black lockbox.
The curious Lu Changsheng couldn't help but use his mind to peek in. It didn't matter if he didn't look. He almost fell from the tree when he saw it...
