Chapter 868: If You Have Money, You Spend It

January 15th, the sixth day of heavy snow.

The heavy snow that lasted for six days turned the entire Pingchuan into a vast expanse of whiteness.

If you look down, not only Pingchuan, but the entire Jiangbei and most of East China have become a world of ice and snow.

The Jiangbei Provincial Meteorological Bureau released the second issue of the "Major Meteorological Information Special Report", which reported that this heavy snowfall was the heaviest snowfall since 1984.

The Jiangbei provincial government launched a three-level emergency plan for snow disaster meteorological services in Jiangbei Province. Qingyang, Fucheng, Nanhu... 13 cities successively launched emergency plans for snowstorm meteorological services at all levels.

On the afternoon of the 15th, several small-scale e-commerce websites issued announcements one after another.

Due to the impact of Blizzard, the website canceled orders for recent heavy snow areas.

And because of the interruption of traffic, some small and medium-sized express companies have also stopped express delivery services in many provinces, including Jiangbei.

Although several large express delivery companies such as SF Express and Yunda did not completely stop the express delivery business in areas with heavy snowfall, they also canceled many express delivery services in areas with severe snow conditions.

As of now, there are no more than ten express delivery companies still operating in East China.

Some express companies only accept local business, and the only two companies that are still insisting on express delivery throughout East China are China Post and Yuanfang Express.

The postal service is powerful and has its own exclusive flight, but the postal service is not a private company after all, and with recent flight delays, the postal package cannot be guaranteed to arrive on time.

It all depends on the weather. If the weather is fine, postage will be fine. If the flight is cancelled, I can only say sorry.

Since the express delivery could not be delivered in time, some sellers on Taobao also issued a friendly reminder in order not to affect their reputation, suggesting that buyers wait for the express delivery to return to normal before placing an order.

...

plain.

A distant express delivery point.

Several employees in uniforms of Yuanfang Express were distributing express packages. Although it was snowing heavily outside, they were still busy and sweating profusely.

An employee who was moving goods glanced at SF Express not far away, and some complained: "It's snowing so hard, no one else will do it, but we are still doing it. Boss Li really doesn't care about our life or death."

As soon as he finished speaking, an old employee next to him scolded: "Xiao Chen, what are you talking about!

Did others not do it themselves? That's no way, they can't receive the order, and the courier can't deliver it.

During the period of outage, they won't get any money except basic salary.

Are we the same?

You don't even think about it yourself, now the cost of receiving an order is doubled compared to before, and the basic salary has tripled. After a month, our salary will be at least over 10,000!

Have you seen how many coolies earn tens of thousands a month?

And didn't the supervisor say that this year we can get at least seven to eight thousand yuan in year-end bonuses, and when the Chinese New Year comes, each of us big guys can get at least tens of thousands of yuan.

Are you still not satisfied with this?

If you don't want to do it, just ask for leave now, I guarantee there will be plenty of people rushing to do it!

The people at SF Express on the opposite side are all jealous. Believe it or not, with a word from our supervisor, at least five or six people can come over there! "

Xiao Chen's face turned pale and blue, and he muttered: "Brother Zhang, I'm just saying, why are you so serious."

Brother Zhang said angrily: "I'm not being serious, you young people just can't bear it!

How good life is now, how good the treatment here is in the distance!

I used to work on the construction site, and someday I would not work in the cold!

If you don’t work, you will have no money. When I returned to my hometown during the Chinese New Year and watched other people eat fish and meat, my two children drooled greedily. Do you know how I felt at that time?

We people have no culture, what else can we do besides doing coolies?

Working hard in other places, two thousand yuan a month is worthy of you.

But in the distance, if we work in a year, it will cost 60,000 to 70,000 this year.

After working for two or three years, I will go back to my hometown to build a western-style house. Life is not a hundred times better than before.

We big guys are eager to continue working every day, let alone snowing, we want to do it even when shooting.

You're fine, if you complain now, it will be heard by someone, and the above said that the operation is out of service, what should we eat and drink?

You ask everyone, who is willing to stop at this time? "

As soon as Brother Zhang finished speaking, several older employees next to him also shouted: "That's right, Xiao Chen, don't talk nonsense!

I heard from the supervisor yesterday that because of the heavy snowfall, they are discussing whether we should continue working.

He also said that the big boss wants to conduct employee surveys. It's your business if you don't like it. If our work is cut off, everyone will spit and drown, believe it or not! "

"Little young man doesn't have a family who knows what to do. When he marries a wife and has a baby, if you tell him not to do it, he will rush to do it.

Now that you are full and the whole family is not hungry, of course you don’t want to, but none of us want to raise a big family.

I have worked in Yuanfang Express for half a year, earning more than my salary in the past two years. Now I can’t wait to see 7.18 every day, otherwise it will rain and snow every day, that would be great! "

"Xiao Chen, don't be lazy, save some money while you're young, go back and build a house and marry a wife, it's not eight times better than you are now!"

"For a group as big as Yuanfang, it would be nice to have people like us. If we go out, where else can we go besides working on the construction site?"

"Yuanfang Group is really good, but there are also disadvantages. You said that the big boss insisted on buying us some kind of endowment insurance, and the loss was hundreds of dollars a month.

A few hundred dollars is enough for our doll's tuition. Hey, every time I see money being deducted, I feel very distressed. "

"Why do you feel bad, I heard that if you pay for a few more years, we will get money every month when we get old, just like saving in a bank."

"..."

The topics of the employees gradually drifted away, and Xiao Chen's complaints came to nothing.

Not working?

If you don't work, some people rush to do it!

Who doesn't want to make money these days, no knowledge, no education, no technology, just a handful of effort, delivery delivery is nothing.

The basic salary of express delivery employees has tripled, and the commission has doubled, which is not too high.

Those logistics drivers earn several thousand yuan for a long-distance trip, and it is not uncommon for them to travel seven or eight times a month for a salary of 30,000 to 40,000 yuan.

In 2008, this kind of money-making speed was not lower than that of corporate executives.

At this time, don't talk about danger, even if you work hard, someone will do it, not to mention it's not hard work.

With so many cars on the road, can others get your salary?

It's all work, who cares about this little trouble.

...

Faraway Building.

Qin Hai said solemnly: "Mr. Li, don't worry, the employees of Yuanfang Logistics can persevere!

The group has spent such a high price, and the employees are very excited. At this time, the shutdown has disappointed everyone. "

Li Dong sighed softly: "Unless it is absolutely necessary, I don't want to stop the operation. However, there have been frequent accidents in recent days, and many people have been injured.

Yesterday when I was on the road, I saw our company's courier slip and fall.

In addition, the courier vehicles provided by the company are not protected from the wind. In such a cold day, I have seen some couriers get chilblains on their hands and ears from the cold. "

Qin Hai frowned and said, "These are trivial things, why don't you do it like this? I read the news these days, those employees of the power company, in such a cold day, go to the mountains to operate at high altitudes, it is colder and more dangerous than us.

There are also some employees of the waterworks, who are doing all the work of entering the water.

We did not treat these employees badly, and we distributed things such as chilblain medicine, warm clothes, and leather gloves.

In addition, the wages have almost doubled. Everyone is willing to do it, and we will not force those who do not want to. Why does Mr. Li think so much? "

"That's not what I'm talking about. I'm thinking about whether our express car needs to be replaced..."

Before Li Dong finished speaking, Qin Hai rolled his eyes.

I knew it!

You have some money and start to waste again!

transfer?

Nowadays, in many logistics, employees bring their own vehicles to work, and Yuanfang has provided all delivery vehicles for everyone.

For these cars, the company spent nearly tens of millions.

You have to change your car in the time it takes to open your mouth. What car should you change?

Can't they all be replaced by cars?

Sometimes Qin Hai felt so distressed for Li Dong, this guy was sometimes so stingy and sometimes so generous.

Whether it is wages, working environment, and supporting facilities, Yuanfang is not bad in the whole country.

However, Li Dong thought that every time he came out, he really thought that money was not money anymore, right?

These days, how could there be so many requests.

In Qin Hai's view, even the treatment of state-owned enterprises is not as good as that of Yuanfang. When he worked in the textile factory transportation team, he didn't see it so well.

That was still spending the country's money, but now spending private money, such conditions are definitely considered generous.

Without waiting for Li Dong to continue, Qin Hai interrupted: "Mr. Li, everyone said that Sheng Mi's kindness fights against Mi's hatred. This may be a bit biased, but it is not unreasonable.

It is enough that our treatment is better than that of other companies. If it is better, everyone will be grateful.

It's so much better. On the one hand, our expenditure will increase, and on the other hand, everyone may not continue to be grateful.

Remuneration is a thing that can only be raised little by little to make people hopeful.

You want to do it all at once. At the beginning, everyone was satisfied. After that, the benefits of other companies gradually improved. What should we do?

At that time, we could only bite the bullet and continue to increase, but our salary was already high, and the employees were not happy if the increase was small, and we couldn't sustain it if the increase was too high.

Doing business is a process of accumulating accumulation, and the road has to be taken step by step.

I'm not opposed to improving the treatment of employees. I also hope that employees from far away can follow us to eat well and drink spicy food, but the conditions are not yet ripe.

Being one step ahead of others is an advantage, and being too much ahead is arousing hatred. "

Li Dong thought about it for a moment, and what Qin Hai said was not unreasonable.

Li Dong himself once said that he is a more emotional person, and this is not a lie.

Sometimes he is really emotional, like the courier changing cars. The reason why he thought of this was because he saw an employee of a distant courier fall down on the road and had chilblains on his hands and face.

But if you think about it carefully, in fact, the treatment and conditions of Yuanfang Express are absolutely generous.

If the salary is increased, the expenses in the distance will be large.

Running an enterprise is not something that happens overnight, and there is still a long time to come. Now that I have been promoted to the top all of a sudden, what will I do in the future.

After exhaling, Li Dong didn't continue talking.

Sensibility is sensibility, and he doesn't really have too much money to spend.

Now the expenses in the distance are already high, since Qin Hai thinks it is unnecessary, it is better to spend less.

Leaving this topic aside, Li Dong said again: "How is the new platform going?"

A few days ago, he took part of the staff from logistics, supermarkets, and shopping malls to temporarily build an online shopping and telephone shopping platform.

This platform relies on Yuanfang Mall, and it is not completely under the management of the mall, but is jointly managed by the three parties.

Taking advantage of this heavy snowfall, Li Dong wanted to see how it would work.

Hearing Li Dong asked about this, Qin Hai thought for a while before saying: "It's almost ready to go online, and we don't have time to refine it at this time, we can only observe in practice.

Besides, it's just a temporary emergency platform, and we won't need it when the heavy snow is over. "

Li Dong shook his head and said: "What you said earlier is reasonable, and you can only practice true knowledge at this time. But what you said later will be canceled after the heavy snow is over. This is not my purpose."

Qin Hai looked suspicious and said, "Are you going to keep doing it?"

"Let's take a look and see how it works. In the future, the combination of e-commerce and physical stores will be a major trend. Let's take a step ahead and seize the opportunity."

It may be difficult in the first few years, but in the next few years, maybe this is where our core competitiveness lies. "

Qin Hai doesn't know much about e-commerce, but since Li Dong said so, Qin Hai nodded and said: "Then our logistics side must do our best to cooperate, and several cargo ships from Haifeng have arrived."

"So fast?"

Li Dong was a little surprised, it seems like it's only been three days?

Even if it is ready for loading, it may take a day. In other words, Haifeng's ship will arrive in two days.

"This time is an exception, Haifeng already has several small-tonnage cargo ships docked on the side of the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal.

This time the cargo capacity was not large, and Haifeng was afraid that we would run out of stock, so they temporarily shipped some urgently needed goods.

Next time I come back, I'm afraid it will take a week. "

"That's okay. I've been worrying for the past few days. The heavy snow shows no signs of stopping at all, and everyone in the urban area is panicking.

In the past few days, our shipments have tripled compared to usual.

The inventory that was originally enough for half a month is now almost sold out in three days.

Now is the right time, Uncle Qin, the next step is to look at the logistics side. "

Qin Hai nodded, and they were all transported to the pier. If Yuanfang logistics couldn't handle this trivial matter, then Li Dong's high investment in logistics would be in vain.

Yuanfang Logistics had already suffered a lot from the last incident. If this matter fails now, maybe the group will really abolish the logistics side in the future.

After talking briefly with Qin Hai, Shen Qian entered the office.

Seeing Shen Qian, Qin Hai's face changed slightly, he nodded his head, and Qin Hai went straight out of the office.

After he went out, Shen Qian smiled and said: "Mr. Qin has been displeased with me more and more recently. Do you think Mr. Qin will come up and give me a slap in the face someday?"

Li Dong laughed a few times, didn't answer the question, and changed the subject: "I heard that the emergency platform can be launched?"

"Well, it's coming soon. It will be officially launched before the 18th. Also, don't call it the emergency platform, but choose an official name. What do you think it should be called?"

"It's called the distance..."

Shen Qian's face darkened immediately, and she said angrily: "Is the Yuanfang platform good? Can you rely on some clues? Forget it. Looking back, I thought to myself, it would be useless to expect you to choose a name.

Let's not talk about this first, I'm here to tell you about Longhua. "

"Longhua!"

Li Dong cheered up immediately, he kept Shen Qian staring at him, so Xu Shengzhe made a move?
