The Dormitory Stocking Festival pushed the number of group purchase registrations and orders to a peak in a short period of time.
Under this circumstance, the recommendations of good products planned by 208 did have a certain impact and facilitated ten online orders for Wanzhong Mall. Although the number was not large and they were all cheap goods such as alarm clocks and desk lamps, it was still a good start.
In addition, it is almost the end of the month, and students who are supposed to be out of money have already run out of money.
Take Cao Guangyu for example. He has started to eat instant noodle soup with steamed buns. He is even worse off than Zhou Chao, who comes from a poor family.
At this juncture, it is already very good for Wanzhong Mall to get ten orders.
Wait until next month.
As soon as the living allowance is issued next month, a combination of shopping malls will be launched to squeeze the college students dry!
"Boss, what's wrong with you?"
"It's okay. It's dry and I have a toothache recently."
Jiang Qin put away his ferocious expression of "squeeze them dry" and took Dong Wenhao into Xitian in the front square, waiting for the truck from Wanzhong Shopping Mall.
The receipt of the goods was handled by a specially arranged part-time student, so there was no need for him, the boss, to do it himself. However, considering that it was the first delivery, Jiang Qin still wanted to keep an eye on it personally.
"Boss, milk tea."
"Manager Dong, milk tea."
Hu Xin, the sweet-loving part-time store manager, walked over with two cups of milk tea and placed them in front of the two of them.
When Dong Wenhao heard the word "supervisor", he was immediately overjoyed. His chest puffed out fiercely, almost bursting the zipper of his down jacket.
"Wenhao, what's wrong with you?" Jiang Qin looked at him strangely.
Dong Wenhao instantly retracted his chest and said with a wry smile: "It's okay, it's dry and my chest hurts a little."
Jiang Qin exclaimed, "Ever since you put on lipstick, even the painful parts feel strange. How about we go to the back and find a place where no one is around to rub them?"
Dong Wenhao had just taken a sip of milk tea when he almost choked to death: "I was wrong. It was my chest that was stuffy."
"what time is it?"
"It's already ten past eight."
Jiang Qin frowned: "Isn't the scheduled delivery time eight o'clock?"
Dong Wenhao then remembered and reached out to take out his cell phone to make a call. After a while, he said quietly, "Manager Zhang said there might be a traffic jam on the road, so we should be patient."
"Is that the manager Zhang who asked us to change the delivery time last time?"
"Yes, that's him."
Jiang Qin took a sip of milk tea: "Is he the one delivering the goods today?"
Dong Wenhao shook his head: "He is the supervisor. How could the supervisor come to deliver the goods? He must have sent someone here."
"He knows nothing."
After Jiang Qin finished speaking, he walked out of Xitian with milk tea. Dong Wenhao followed him and the two of them found Kong Hui, a part-time college student who was responsible for receiving the goods. The three of them squatted on the side of the road and began to wait.
It was not until 8:35 that a car with the words "Wanzhong Shopping Mall Freight Department" printed on it slowly came and drove all the way to the statue in the front square and stopped.
The deliveryman was called Ma Liang, who was in his early thirties, with a shiny bald head and wearing a shiny blue down jacket. He walked out of the cab with a cigarette in his mouth, and puffed out a cloud of smoke after landing.
The three people on the roadside just looked at him across the street, and no one said anything.
Five minutes later, after finishing a cigarette, Ma Liang slowly took out his cell phone and made a call. Jiang Qin saw the whole scene.
The call was made to Kong Hui. Jiang Qin asked him to answer it as usual. After that, the three of them went across the street together.
"Brother, I'll come get the goods."
Ma Liang glanced at Kong Hui, pointed at the back of the car, and motioned for him to get it himself.
Kong Hui saw that he looked quite fierce, so he didn't dare to say anything. After opening the carriage, he counted the documents and planned to pick up the goods and leave, but was stopped by Ma Liang.
"With just this little bit of stuff, the profit is not even enough to cover the gas money for one trip."
"Ah?" Kong Hui didn't understand.
Ma Liang frowned and said, "You don't understand. My car is out of gas. Can you give me a hundred dollars so I can go out and fill up the gas later?"
"Our boss never said anything about refueling." Kong Hui turned his head and glanced at Jiang Qin.
"Damn it, are college students nowadays so unruly? It's almost nine o'clock now. If it weren't for you, I would have been off work a long time ago. If you don't believe me, come and see. My gas tank is empty. How can I get back home?"
The driver, Ma Liang, was cursing and looked fierce, and it looked like he would not let the driver leave unless he gave him 100 yuan.
Jiang Qin came forward upon seeing this and asked Kong Hui to deliver the goods first.
It is indeed almost nine o'clock now, and the delivery time is a full hour late. Those who have placed orders are probably already getting impatient waiting.
The most important thing is to stabilize consumers first.
Seeing Kong Hui was about to leave, Ma Liang immediately stepped forward to stop him, but Jiang Qin put his arm around his shoulders and walked to the side of the road, holding a Mao Zedong note in his hand, fluttering in the light.
"Fuel costs."
"Okay, you still know how to behave." Ma Liang took the money happily and twisted it twice to test whether it was real.
Jiang Qin also smiled and watched him get into the car: "Brother, drive slowly and don't smoke while refueling!"
"Boss, are you just going to give him a hundred dollars?"
Dong Wenhao was extremely angry. The freight department was paid by Wanzhong, and all fuel costs were reimbursed. He had never heard of asking partners for fuel money. This was clearly extortion!
"In the eyes of society, college students are easy to bully. What can I do?"
Jiang Qin took out his cell phone from his pocket, looked through his address book, and called the security office at the door.
In the dark night, Ma Liang hummed a tune and drove happily towards the school gate. He also made a phone call to Supervisor Zhang.
"Hey, Brother Zhang, I delivered the goods."
"Yes, I'm on my way out now, drink slowly and wait for me!"
"Damn, stupid college students. If it weren't for them, I would have drunk this wine a long time ago. But these students are really cowardly. They actually gave me 100 yuan for gas."
"What? What could possibly happen? They are just little brats. I frowned, but they didn't even dare to fart."
"Complain to Manager Yue? Then I'll say that I didn't bring any money when I delivered the goods, so I borrowed 100 yuan for gas. I was planning to pay it back tomorrow, but Brother Zhang, if they don't complain, then this money will be wasted."
He was laughing loudly when suddenly his face changed and he hurriedly stepped on the brakes.
"Brother Zhang, please wait a moment. I have something to do here. Let's talk when I get here..."
Ma Liang stopped the car, squinted his eyes and looked outside, and saw several security guards near the gate coming out and waving at him, meaning that he should get out of the car.
The security guards at Linda University are all big and strong men, very different from the old men in the community security booth, especially the security team leader who likes to eat wild jujubes. He has big shoulders and a big waist, dark skin, and is particularly scary when he has no expression on his face.
"what's the situation?"
Ma Liang pulled the handbrake and got out of the car, and heard the leading security guard say, "Exit fee, one hundred yuan."
“You need money to go out?” Ma Liang looked incredulous.
"This is a foreign vehicle, you must pay a hundred dollars."
"I've only been here for less than half an hour, and you're charging me a hundred. Aren't you too ruthless?"
"You haven't been to college, right? If you want to go out, you have to pay a hundred dollars for a foreign vehicle."
It is true that Ma Liang never went to university, but that doesn’t mean he is stupid. He certainly won’t give the money, but he has to go out anyway!
So he took out his cell phone and called Manager Zhang.
After a while, Dong Wenhao received a call from Manager Zhang. Jiang Qin asked him to turn on the speakerphone, and Manager Zhang's angry voice came out from the receiver.
"What's going on at Linchuan University? You have to pay 100 yuan to go out. Is there any law? Have you coordinated well? My people are rushing back to deliver the next batch. Isn't this a waste of time? Who will be responsible for the delayed delivery time?"
"Well, I'm really sorry, Manager Zhang. Maybe we didn't connect well. I'm so sorry."
"Who are you?"
"I'm the boss of the group buying business, Jiang Qin."
"If you haven't coordinated well, go and do it quickly instead of talking nonsense here!"
Jiang Qin took a deep breath and said, "How about this? In order not to waste your time, you can pay first, and I will ask them to return the money tomorrow after I have coordinated everything. Is that ok?"
Manager Zhang hung up the phone angrily and relayed Jiang Qin’s words to Ma Liang, who immediately exclaimed “awesome!”
However, not long after the call was hung up, Manager Zhang received another call from Ma Liang.
"Brother Zhang, this is not possible!"
"Why not? Didn't I ask you to give me money?"
"They refused to accept it. They said they only wanted the one Jiang Qin gave them. Otherwise, don't even think about leaving today!"
"… "
Manager Zhang's heart skipped a beat, and after saying that, he immediately found Dong Wenhao's phone number and called him.
Dong Wenhao's cell phone was in Jiang Qin's hand at this time. The two were drinking milk tea at Xitian. When they saw the call from Manager Zhang, Jiang Qin hung up without saying a word.
"Boss, can't you just report it to Manager Yue directly? Why let the security guard seize the car?" Dong Wenhao was a little confused.
"If we report it to Yue Zhu, they will probably make excuses, saying that they forgot to bring money on the way here and were in a hurry to refuel, so they borrowed 100 yuan from us, but they were just not good at explaining it clearly, and they will pay it back when they come to deliver the goods tomorrow. With this explanation, we will appear to be stingy. But if we seize the car, they will come to beg me."
Dong Wenhao's scalp was a little numb: "Is it true?"
"I've seen too many people like this. Their tactics are all the same. They're betting that we won't complain, and then the hundred dollars will be theirs."
Jiang Qin glanced at his phone and found that Manager Zhang had called again, so he hung up again.
It was not until the fifth call that he reached out to answer it and pressed the speakerphone. He heard the humble and polite voice of Manager Zhang.
"Mr. Jiang, I'm so sorry. I just heard from Ma Liang that he borrowed 100 yuan from you for gas money?"
"No, no, no, it's too polite to say it's a loan. It's a gift from me to show my respect to Mr. Ma."
Jiang Qin grinned and winked at Dong Wenhao, whose expression suddenly changed. He thought to himself that it was just as the boss said, they insisted that it was a borrowed money, which was really shameless!
"Boss Jiang is such a joker. The truth is, our car was indeed out of gas, and Ma Liang didn't have any money on him, so we had no choice but to borrow it. He was not good at speaking and didn't explain clearly."
"Oh, so it was borrowed. Then you don't have to return it. You can make two banners for me, write "Group Buying", "Slash", "Direct Delivery from Wanzhong Mall", "Delivery on time at 8 o'clock every day", and put them on the truck when you deliver the goods in the future, okay?"
"Ah? But the security room also costs a hundred dollars."
Jiang Qin smiled even more brightly: "What does the money the security guard wants have to do with me, Jiang Qin?"
Please give me a monthly ticket!!!
