I can see the commodity price curve

Ah San looked at Zhang Yue: "Manager Zhang, it seems your boss thinks highly of you!"

He spoke from his heart.

Because the fare just now can be shared equally by two people.

He himself is also a worker. For example, in this kind of smuggling operation, there is a boss above.

As long as it involves travel reimbursement, the boss will calculate it very clearly.

If one person reports one person's price, two people will also report one person's price.

Because two people can ride in the same car.

Now that Zhang Yue has paid all the money, he can still get half of the fare from his boss, which is equivalent to free profit.

Zhang Yue waved his hand: "It's just average!

To be honest, our boss is quite stingy and he would rather spend every penny carefully.

Take my business trip this time for example, he emphasized it several times before I left.

The time limit must be reported and no fraud is allowed.

In other words, I will only cover the amount I spend, and I will never report more than what I paid.

Please give me some advice, I'm out on the job!

I've been traveling so long, so what's wrong with him giving me some more financial compensation?
I talked to him several times, but he wouldn't give in.

He is a typical miser. "

Ah San patted Zhang Yue on the shoulder and said, "Okay, as employees, we should also understand the boss's difficulties.

That’s right, although the boss makes money, he has to bear the corresponding risks.

When he makes money, we see the joy in his eyes and feel how great it is to be a boss.

But when he doesn't make money, he feels uncomfortable.

To be honest, the worst time our boss lost money was over one million.

This incident caused him to be unable to recover for nearly three years. "

After saying that, Ah San sighed: "It's not easy!"

Zhang Yue nodded in agreement, "You're right, being a boss is not easy sometimes.

We can't just think he's stingy, after all, he also has times when he spends money lavishly."

Ah San was stunned, and suddenly he became curious: "Can I ask you a question?"

"what is the problem?"

"How much money did your boss lose in the month when he suffered the most losses?"

Zhang Yue frowned: "I'm not sure about this.

But our boss is special, he usually doesn't lose money.

If we really want to compare, it’s just a matter of how much you earn.”

"Really? Then how much did he make in the month when he made the least?"

“That’s a big difference, our boss has been in business for four or five years.

In the beginning, the money earned was definitely small, but as the company grew in size, the money earned became larger and larger.”

"Just tell me about the last two years. Anything longer than that won't count and won't make any sense."

Zhang Yue nodded: "Is that so? Wait a moment, I'll check."

"Check, do you have any records?" Asan was a little surprised.

Zhang Yue smiled slightly: "Yes, although I am not in finance, I know something about his accounts because of my special status.

Wait a mininute!
It was found out that the month in which he made the least money was March this year.

Because the overall environment was not good that month, I think I only made more than 30 billion yuan in total.”

Ah San staggered subconsciously: "How much money did you say he made?"

"35.9 billion, what's wrong?"

Ah San was speechless for a long time: "What exactly does your boss do?"

Zhang Yue said: "He has many businesses, such as pharmaceutical factories, food factories, and mining factories.

There are also some messy ones.

The main business is in China, but we also have business in other parts of the world.

Because the scale is so huge, not only I, but even he himself can’t figure out how much business he has.”

Ah San was silent for a long time before he gave a thumbs up: "Great, you came from a big company."

Zhang Yue smiled slightly: "That company is indeed quite big."

People were walking and chatting when suddenly the vehicle in front of them shook, and then the whole car began to tilt.

Then Zhang Yue discovered that the car had stopped moving.

He looked out the window in surprise, only to find that the vehicle seemed to be stuck in a mud pit.

However, the road that he and others were walking on turned out to be a dirt road. No wonder it was so bumpy just now.

Ah San looked helpless when he saw this scene: "It's over, we're going to waste time again."

"Wasting time?"

"Yes!" Ah San nodded, "This road is very difficult to travel, and you have also seen the condition of this car.

It’s not a problem if it doesn’t rain normally, but once it rains, it’s simply fatal.

The most frustrating thing is that it rains at all times in India.

In addition, India has a very large land area, so when it rains here, it may not rain in other places.

When it's not raining here, it may be raining somewhere else.

There is no way to arrange the trip according to the weather. ”

Zhang Yue nodded. In fact, he had encountered this situation in Africa.

And the situation in Africa is much more serious than here.

So Zhang Yue was not surprised.

"So how long do we expect to stay here?"

Ah San shook his head: "I don't know, it depends on the situation!
It could be a long time, or it could be a short time.”

The two had no choice but to wait at the station.

After waiting for ten minutes, the car owner told me that I would probably have to stay here for four hours.

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone couldn't help but start complaining.

Ah San was no exception. He angrily said, "After waiting here for four hours, the daylily has gone cold."

After saying that, he took out his phone and said, "I was originally scheduled to leave the country the day after tomorrow, but looking at the current situation, I'm afraid I'll have to wait until the day after tomorrow."

Zhang Yue quickly asked, "We have to wait until the day after tomorrow? Wouldn't that delay things?"

"Yes, but the problem is that there is no way, and even the day after tomorrow there will still be no problem with the road ahead.

If there is a problem on the road behind, the time will definitely be extended.”

He said helplessly: “I don’t mind if it’s delayed for a day or two, but the problem is that the money I earn from this trip is fixed.

One day of delay is one day of lost profit.”

Zhang Yue asked: "Then there is no way to speed it up?
It's not that I'm in a hurry, but my boss asked me to deliver the goods as soon as possible.

If I had arrived one day earlier, I would have gotten more bonus.

If the time exceeds the deadline he stipulates, not only will you not get a bonus, you may even have your salary deducted.”

Ah San said calmly: "If you want it to be quick, there is a way!"

"Is there a way? What is it?"

"It's simple, just change the car."

Ah San pointed at the road in front of him and said, "There are often cars passing by on this road, all kinds of cars.

This car got stuck accidentally, but the other cars are naturally different.

If we can change cars, we should be able to maintain the speed."

Zhang Yue clapped his hands: "That's really great."

However, Ah San shook his head: "What's good about that? I just said we can change the car, but we can't."

"Why?" Zhang Yue was stunned, not quite understanding what the other party meant.

Ah San spread his hands and said, "It's very simple, the car we are riding in is private, not owned by a car company.

This means the car is stuck and we can only wait."

Zhang Yue: "Is that it? Does the bus company only allow passengers to ride from the starting station to the terminal station, and not allow passengers to board the bus in the middle of the journey?
Shouldn't it?

On small roads like this where we are, as long as there is an empty seat on the bus, the driver will generally not refuse you if you want to sit on it. Even if there is no empty seat on the bus, the driver can still give you a ride as long as you are willing. "

Ah San: "Of course you can get on the bus, but the problem is that we are changing buses midway and need to pay the fare again.

As for the car we took, it is impossible for us to get a refund.”

Zhang Yue slapped his forehead and said, "What did I think? So this is what you are talking about. Simple."

Isn't it just money? I paid for the replacement of the car, so that shouldn't be a problem, right?"

"Ah? The cost of changing the car? Will your boss reimburse you?"

“Of course, our boss said that we should pay according to actual expenses.

Besides, the fare is not much, so it doesn’t matter if he doesn’t reimburse you.”

As the two were talking, four cars suddenly drove up from behind.

Zhang Yue's eyes lit up and he quickly got off the car: "Are these the buses you are talking about?"

Ah San nodded: "Yes, these are the cars."

As soon as Zhang Yue's footsteps touched the ground, the drivers of the four cars shouted loudly:

"Does anyone want to change cars? If so, get in now. We'll be leaving soon."

Zhang Yue quickly raised his hand: "Let's change cars, let's change cars."

He took a look at the four cars and found that there were two new cars and two old cars.

One of the new cars was not very big, but it looked very sturdy.

So Zhang Yue walked towards the car.

Unexpectedly, after he took two steps, Ah San quickly stopped him.

Zhang Yue turned back in surprise: "What's wrong?"

Ah San said helplessly: "Let's take the car in the front, not this one."

"Why? I think this car is the most comfortable to sit in!"

“Why else?
The charges for these four vehicles are different because of their different conditions.

The car you go in is the most luxurious and charges the highest fee.

Let’s take the cheaper one!”

Zhang Yue couldn't help but ask, "How much does it cost to take the most expensive car?"

"Ten dollars each, that makes twenty for the two of us."

Zhang Yue laughed instantly: "I thought it would cost a lot of money, but it turned out to be only 20 yuan.

Go, go, go, and take the best bus.

Besides, your car is so sturdy that there shouldn't be any problems even if the road conditions ahead are bad.

If we take that cheap car and get stuck in the mud after a few steps, we will have to change cars again, which is really troublesome."

Asan wanted to explain, but Zhang Yue sat on it without giving any explanation.

After giving the money to the driver, they found a seat and sat down.

Zhang Yue took a breath of fresh air very comfortably. Because the car was quite luxurious, not many people were willing to pay to sit in it, and there was plenty of space around the two of them.

"This ten dollars is totally worth it, it's comfortable!"

Ah San looked at him, wanting to say something, but in the end said nothing.

Just as Zhang Yue predicted, this car is much better than other cars in terms of driving stability and safety factor.

Especially speed.

If the previous car was compared to a snail, then this car is a rocket.

The journey was originally planned to take four hours, but the car arrived in just one hour.

The vehicle stopped and two people got out.

This is a town. Zhang Yue stretched and asked Ah San: "What should we do next?"

Ah San said calmly, "Of course it's time to eat.

Let’s hurry up and eat something, because it’s earlier than expected and we can still walk a little further.”

Zhang Yue nodded. He had the same idea as the other party.

Go as fast as you can and try not to drag on.

Ah San began to walk along the street. Zhang Yue followed him for a few steps and suddenly said:
“Aren’t there food stalls on the roadside?

And if we want to continue our journey, we must take a ride here, right?

So just eat something nearby.”

This is the experience Zhang Yue has accumulated.

Generally speaking, the restaurants near the station are the kind that are both expensive and not tasty.

For most people, if they want to eat, they will try to walk as far away as possible.

But the problem is, where to eat depends on the time.

Time is so tight now, there is no need to waste so much time.

Ah San glanced at Zhang Yue and said, "Let's move on. The food here is too expensive. We can't afford it."

Zhang Yue said: "It's too expensive. How much does a meal cost?"

"For the two of us, even if we eat sparingly, it will still cost five dollars per person."

Zhang Yue was stunned: "What did you say? Five dollars per person? That's too cheap!"

Seeing Ah San hesitate, he quickly pulled him back and said, “Come on, go over and have something to eat.

In my entire life, I have never eaten a meal that cost five dollars!
So today we have to recall the good times and remember the bad times.”

Ah San was somewhat helpless. As he walked along, he suddenly realized something was wrong:

"Wait, we can't eat at this restaurant!"

After saying this, he couldn't help but wipe the cold sweat from his forehead.

The restaurant Zhang Yue was going to was the most luxurious restaurant in the area.

It's not possible to eat in this restaurant for just five dollars.

At least twenty dollars.

He explained the reason, and Zhang Yue laughed and said, "Is that so?

Twenty is fine, we've worked so hard today, we must reward ourselves."

After entering the restaurant, someone immediately came to greet us.

Zhang Yue waved his hand and said, "We are in a hurry. What dish do you have that is both delicious and quick to serve? Serve it to us directly.

The food doesn’t need to be too much, just enough for the two of us to eat.”

If it was at night, he would definitely order a few more dishes.

But the situation is special now, so naturally we should keep things simple.

The restaurant owner nodded.

Soon, two dishes were served on the table.

Ah San's eyelids jumped when he saw that the two dishes were one fish and the other one a chicken.

These are all meat dishes!

Although it is just an ordinary meat dish, as long as it is a meat dish, the price cannot be cheap.

He was about to say something, but Zhang Yue frowned and said, "No, Boss, I told you to keep it simple, but I didn't make it that easy.

Especially I saw a lot of shrimps and shells near your gate.

These things should cook faster, right? "

The boss nodded: "Those do ripen faster, but they are also more expensive."

Zhang Yue looked at him helplessly and said, "I asked you to serve the fastest and most delicious dishes.

It doesn't mean you should serve the cheapest dish.

Do you think we are too poor to afford your good food?"

The restaurant owner waved his hands quickly: "Misunderstanding, wait a moment, I will serve you seafood now!"

Zhang Yue smiled slightly: "That's good enough, speed up a bit."

Then he said to Ah San: "Although this boss is a bit judgmental, he is a good person.

If it were someone with a more evil heart, they would definitely serve whatever is most expensive and profitable.”
