The Red Mansions Across the Four Seas

Chapter 141 A sensation (Part [-])
Feng Ziying led the crowd to the parking lot, and saw Niu Jizong, Liu Fang, Chen Ruiwen and Ma Shangde already there, talking to a driver.

This driver is Lao Wang, the leader of all the car owners.It turned out that he was the leader when he was at Niu Jizong's place.

"Old Wang, didn't you go back to your hometown?"

Liu Fang looked a little distraught.

The person he used to be is now mixed up with Jia Min, and he can't turn this corner for a while.

"I planned to go back to my hometown, but the dental clinic kept me and introduced me to come back here again."

Pharaoh replied calmly.

"I saw a lot of people just now, and they were all from us. Did you find them?"

"That's right, Fourth Master Jia promised me that if I find someone, give me a tael of silver, and I'll get them all back."

It turned out that before handing over to Jia Min and the others, Liu Fang was afraid that these coachmen would get into Jia Min's hands, so she dismissed them first, and wanted to set up some obstacles for Jia Min so that he could not get the coachmen for a while.

Unexpectedly, Jia Min only spent a few dozen taels of silver to find all the people like himself back.

"Didn't Mr. Jia say that you are all unqualified, you are not qualified to drive a car, why did you pass in just a few days?"

"We've all been trained. Whether we're old or newcomers, we've all been trained in Yeduju for seven days. Master Liu, you see, haven't we all been issued employment certificates? We all have passed the exam before we have certificates." of."

As Old Wang said, he picked up a sign hanging on his chest, on which was written his name, age, place of origin, and serial number.

"Even our clothes are of the same style, and even our hair is required. When we go to work, we are absolutely not allowed to drink alcohol. We are afraid that drinking will cause accidents, affect the safety of passengers, and tarnish our image. "

Lao Wang said, with a look of complacency on his face.

"I don't think this horse belongs to our family, why is it all right now?"

"Master Hui Liu, this horse has been tamed again these days."

"Even the horses are tamed?"

"Just like people, they were all trained in the Yedu residence, where Mr. Wei found someone and led them to be tamed. When these horses were in our hands, they were about the same. A little training will do. "

"I don't think this car is also the original one?"

"Master Liu has good eyesight, it's the original cars."

"Didn't it mean that the car is not good enough? Why are you using it again? This time you are not afraid of being unsafe?"

"There is actually nothing wrong with this car, but the axle is a little bad. It's fine to change the axle. Everything else is good. It costs five taels of silver for a car. It's okay to change the axle, add the hood and chairs. It’s fine. It’s just this change, but it’s quite different from our original car.”

At this moment, Liu Fang just wanted to curse.

This person is his own, the horse is his own, and the car is still his own.That goddamn Jia Laosi bought it for the price of cabbage, and after a little tinkering with it, it became his property, as if it had changed completely in one fell swoop.No matter how you look at it, it looks like it is worth money.

However, Fourth Jia, don't be too happy, this business is a big hole.Even if you are majestic for a day today, for a long time, it will still drag down your Jia family.I want to see, how much money do you have to fill in it?
Liu Fang stopped talking, and everyone's attention was focused on the carport again.

I saw that it was colorful, with pictures and words.At the bottom of the front is a line of numbers, and on the car body are advertisements of some merchants.

If you look closely, there are those in Hu's Winery, Wanjia Kiln, Jia's Supermarket, and Zhou's Carpenter's Shop.

"Look here, my lords, this is the number of this car. The plate on the driver's body also has a number. If you take the car, the driver doesn't serve you well, or charges too much money, or speaks rudely. You can remember the number of the car and the number of the driver, and if you complain to us, we will find the driver, and you will be warned and fined, or fired.”

"If you think it's troublesome for us, you can also write a report letter and put it in here. It's locked and the driver can't get it out. Only we can open it."

Feng Ziying led the crowd to the back of the car, and beside the door hung a locked wooden box with a hole in it, just enough to put the paper in.

"The ones on the car body are the advertisements of various shops. Our cars go around the city every day, and wherever we go, we bring the advertisements. People who see it will know what the shops sell and where they are. gone."

"I'm afraid you still need to charge money for this advertisement?"

Xiu Tonggui's brain responded quickly, and he asked the key point.

"Hey, my lords, there is really no way. Everyone knows that this bus carriage is just a money-filling business. If you don't want to make up for it in other ways, how can it last? How much money does anyone have? You can’t afford it either. Brother Niu and Brother Liu know this, you can ask them, and they will tell you the pain.”

Don't ask us, we don't know!

This is the common aspiration of Niu Jizong and Liu Fang.

"My lords, if you look at the configuration of our horses, it is also different from others. This one is all white horses. Some are red horses, and some are black horses. They really don't match the same color, that is, two horses. The combination of red and white, and two white and two black is always pleasing to the eye, making people look refreshed and pleasing to the eye."

"Okay, now, please get in the car, everyone, let's walk and watch along the way."

So everyone separated, and the others rode horses. Four people, including Feng Ziying, Liu Changfeng, Xiu Tonggui and Niu Jizong, got into Lao Wang's car.There are eight chairs in the car, and only one is full.

"My lords, take a look at this seat, and see how it differs from the others?"

Feng Ziying was referring to the remaining seat.It used to be covered with a cloth, but now that Feng Ziying lifted the cloth, it looks different from other seats.

The first is that the colors are different, and the second is that there are four words on it: old, weak, sick and disabled.

"This is a special seat specially prepared for the elderly, the sick, the disabled, children and other infirm people. If there are these people, they will sit on this chair. If there are no such people, other people can sit on it. If someone first Sit down, and the old man who came up on the way will also give way to the old man. My holy dynasty governs the world with benevolence and filial piety, respecting the old and caring for the weak. Even if we are doing business, we don’t dare to forget it for a while.”

"Okay, this is good. This is how business should be done. When making money, you must not forget loyalty, filial piety, benevolence and righteousness. When I meet the emperor in the future, I will also talk to the emperor. Well, this Jia Min is really hardworking."

Although Liu Changfeng is a majestic person outside, he is an out-and-out filial son at home. This special seat for the elderly, weak, sick and disabled really tickled his itch.It's also a coincidence.

"Hey, Feng Ziying, there is one less person in your car, who will collect the money then?"

After Niu Jizong said this, everyone came to their senses. It turned out that the car owner didn't come up.

According to Niu Jizong's original configuration, one car is for two people.One is the driver who is responsible for driving the car, and the other is the driver who is responsible for collecting money, that is, the conductor.

"Brother Niu, there is no hand in our car."

"If there is no driver, who will collect the money? Do you want to ride for nothing?"

"Of course the car is not for nothing. You adults saw it in that supermarket just now. There is a place to apply for a card, and you call for money there. You only need to show the card to the driver when you get on the bus. This bus card is available in Liutiao. All the lines can be used. There are dedicated line cards, which can be used on one line. There are general-purpose cards, which can be used on six lines in the whole city.”

"Brother Feng, I have to ask one more question."

Without realizing it, Xiu Tonggui had changed Feng Ziying's address.

"You said that with this bus card, as long as you get on the bus, you don't have to pay any more. If I take the bus ten or eight times a day, I don't have to pay? In that case, wouldn't you pay more?"

"Master Xiu asked a good question. Such situations will indeed happen. However, since you bought the card, you will definitely not have to pay any more. In the beginning, there will be some such situations. After a long time, It rarely happens.”

"Why is that?"

"Take Mr. Xiu as an example. If it is the first few days, you will find it fresh and interesting, and you will save money. After a long time, Mr. Xiu will have nothing else to do? Besides, even if you have a chair to sit on, you can sit for a long time. , you will be tired and suffer. Even if you don’t spend money, will you find it yourself every day?”

That's right, even if it doesn't cost money, how many people will be free and play in the car every day?
This calculation is really meticulous.

"The other thing is the ride coin we saw."

Feng Ziying opened a small window in front, revealing a small box, also locked, similar to the complaint box outside, only bigger.

"This is the automatic coin box. After exchanging the ride coins in the supermarket, get on the bus and insert the coins in front of the driver, which is considered to have paid the money. The driver can't open this box. You have to go back to the parking lot. After that, only a special person can open it."

"There are several advantages in doing this. First, the driver is saved, and there is no driver in the car. It not only saves the cost, but also has an extra seat, which can take at least one more passenger."

"The second point is that the money does not pass through the hands of the driver and the driver, which prevents them from detaining it and keeping it in their own hands."

"The third point is that the money is safe. If there is a robbery, the driver doesn't need to worry about it. Just ask him to take the box. In this way, the driver can save his life and he doesn't have to bear any responsibility. The robber Even if the ride tokens are taken away, they are useless. If you don’t go through us, you won’t be able to exchange money anywhere. In their hands, it’s useless.”

In this way, it is logical, even Niu Jizong and others have to admit this truth.

"Although this is just a small measure in business, it is actually what Brother Min thinks of for the admiral's sake."

When Feng Ziying said this, everyone didn't understand.How does this have anything to do with the admiral again?Could it be that Jia Min gave the admiral some benefits?
