Is the price of rat extermination business rising so much now? !
The price was not this high even when the rat plague was at its worst not long ago!
Feng Yi used his mobile phone to check the current price of the rat extermination industry.
There are regular door-to-door rat catching services, which are charged by the number of visits or by the number of visits. The regular rate is 50-100 yuan per rat, while the more difficult ones, or the ones hired by the rat extermination company with higher equipment, can cost hundreds or even thousands of yuan. The price was raised during the rat infestation, but now that the infestation is over, the price has dropped again.
Ten thousand per rat, that must be for rat extermination in extreme conditions, right? !
Seeing the two people staring at him excitedly, Feng Yi didn't know what to say for a moment.
After a short silence, he said to the two of them, "Let's talk upstairs."
Judging from the reactions of the Hu Yi brothers just now, there are some details that are not convenient to disclose outside.
Hu Yi's brother said gratefully: "Thank you! Thank you so much!"
After arriving home, Feng Yi gave each of them a bottle of mineral water and raised his chin, "Tell me, what kind of warehouse and what size of rats are worth this price."
Hu Yi's brother drank some water to moisten his throat, and said with a worried look on his face: "It's just an ordinary warehouse, but the goods inside are special."
Hu Yi's brother explained the difficulty of this matter.
The warehouse, which is the size of two basketball courts, is filled with goods. These goods are relatively expensive, mostly reagents for experiments and tests. Some of them need to be protected from light. Even if there is a packaging box, sometimes the delivery party requires on-site unpacking and inspection, and the packaging will be opened to see the actual goods. Some more expensive medicines may even be inspected one by one. Therefore, the windows of the warehouse are also protected from direct sunlight. The warehouse is also relatively dark, and the lights are only turned on when necessary.
"During the rat plague, rats broke into the warehouse once. The boss hired people to catch the rats and used the latest rat repellent tools. In the end, the rats were not driven out, and they became angry and ran around everywhere, knocking a test kit on the shelf to the ground. The reagents in the test kit are required to be handled with care to avoid violent shaking and collisions. They were ruined when they fell from the shelf. A box costs 800 yuan."
Hu Yi's brother's mind reappeared the boss's angry face when he saw the test kit dropped on the ground.
“Although the shelves are equipped with guardrails, the transactions have been frequent recently, so the guardrails are retracted to facilitate the handling of the handling robots.”
The purpose of a warehouse is to classify and store items for easy shipment. It is impossible for it to be displayed in an elaborate manner like a store, with protective glass and the like.
"The goods this time are more expensive, with some costing 8,000 yuan a box. Although protective measures have been taken on the outer packaging, we are still worried that mice will use the boxes to grind their teeth, which would cause heavy losses."
Feng Yi understood.
Having said so much, what I mean is that the goods are too expensive and special, and many rat extermination tools cannot be used, so rat extermination companies are restricted in what they can do.
There are restrictions on tools and goods, and from time to time there are handling robots moving around and getting in the way, so they dare not let go and grab things. If they accidentally bump into something, getting injured is a small matter, but if they sweep a box off the shelf, they may have to pay compensation.
So, who is willing to do it
Instead of spending so much time worrying about this matter, you might as well take on a few other orders!
The warehouse owner paid the money to find the top rat extermination companies, but they probably still had to discuss whether to accept the order and whether it was worth it. Even if they finally accepted it, the warehouse owner couldn't wait.
From this perspective, if ten thousand yuan can kill rats, the boss will definitely be happy to pay it.
Of course, ten thousand per mouse is the price for catching a mouse.
Even if you fail to catch the criminal, you will still get paid, but it will definitely not be this high.
Feng Yi looked through the money he had spent on food and expenses this month.
I have no job and no income. Although I still have 70 million in my bank account, I still feel a sense of urgency. If I can earn 10,000 yuan just by catching a mouse, I would make a trip.
By the way, you can also use this to train your sense of smell.
"Just one?" Feng Yi asked.
"Yes, yes, yes! Just one! It's hiding in the warehouse!" Hu Yi replied.
It was after hearing his brother's complaints that he decided to look for Feng Yi. Feng Yi was extremely fast at catching mice. There was no complicated process at all. He could do it in a flash. Isn't he better than those people who may not be able to catch a mouse even after struggling for a long time
Feng Yi did not agree so easily, but continued to ask: "What is the layout of the warehouse? Tell me about it."
"The shelves are mainly light-duty shelves and medium-duty shelves. There is only one row of heavy-duty shelves, over here..."
Hu Yi's brother simply drew a picture on the paper. It's just about the shelf layout, which doesn't involve any secrets. And it's also for the convenience of catching mice, so it's okay to make it clear.
After figuring out the general layout of the warehouse, Feng Yi asked about the related facilities inside the warehouse.
Hu Yi's brother also gave a brief talk.
Feng Yi drew the general layout on the notebook and confirmed it again, "That's all?"
Hu Yi's brother nodded, "Yes, that's roughly the situation."
Feng Yi thought: It seems... it’s not that difficult.
Search the address Hu Yi's brother mentioned. It takes an hour to drive there.
Check the time.
"Okay, it's 7:50 now, give me 10 minutes, and we'll leave on time at 8 o'clock."
"Now? Oh, okay, thank you! Thank you for your hard work! It might be more difficult at night." Hu Yi's brother showed gratitude on his face.
He thought that the 10 minutes Feng Yi mentioned was for selecting various tools for catching rats in preparation for nighttime rat extermination.
However…
The Hu Yi brothers both looked at Feng Yi with a dull look on their faces as he ate his midnight snack, tea cakes one after another, and in the blink of an eye, he had drunk half a bottle of water.
"Would you two like some?" Feng Yi asked.
"No... no need." The brothers shook their heads.
Feng Yi continued eating.
Hu Yi's brother watched Feng Yi finish all the tea cakes in the box, rinse his mouth, change into sportswear, then put on a not-so-big backpack, carried a long suitcase in his hands, and walked out the door.
It was exactly eight o'clock in the evening.
"Just... just go like this?" Hu Yi's brother asked.
"What else? What procedures do we have to go through?" Feng Yi asked back.
"No, no, that's not what I meant. I meant..." Seeing that Feng Yi only carried a long box, Hu Yi's brother tactfully reminded him, "If you still need any tools, you can tell us and I can ask someone to prepare them first."
"This is enough. I don't know how to use other tools!"
"… "
Hu Yi's brother choked, and only then did he truly realize what Feng Yi meant by "not professional rat extermination".
There's nothing wrong with that. If you can't even use professional tools, how can you be considered a professional
Hu Yi's brother wanted to say something, but Hu Yi nudged him with his elbow and he took back what he was about to say. Thinking that it would take a lot of time to catch mice now, he said, "Then I'll book a hotel first. After catching the mice, you can rest directly in the hotel. Don't drive while tired."
"Why book a hotel? Let's go, quick and decisive. Come back and sleep after you catch me!" Feng Yi urged.
