Chapter 93: There are only twenty people, and I have the advantage!
Sitting in the car going back, Chen Xi was thinking about how to defeat Barnaby.
Money is not a problem. It is during the World Cup and he only needs to bet on a few high-odds football games.
However, those teenagers in Internet cafes may not be able to bear the hard work of physical labor. Although the Internet fee can attract them, it will be self-defeating if the customer's phone is damaged.
“I posted a statement on the Internet, saying that Barnaby was smearing us, and by the way, his company was a mess.”
After returning to the Internet cafe, Xiao Ming quickly wrote a short composition on the computer at the front desk, explained it online, and called on all Chinese to unite.
"Do you want to postpone the game?"
Wang Li also knew about their affairs and asked hesitantly.
Although they have been preparing for this competition for a long time, Chen Xi's moving business has encountered problems now, and he is not in the mood to organize the competition.
"It will be held as scheduled. By the way, I will put some advertisements on the machine, both in Chinese and English. I will say that I will help with the move and I will pay the Internet fee, and I will also give you a keyboard and mouse."
Although Chen Xi really wanted to defeat Barnaby, he couldn't delay the matter at the Internet cafe.
“Let’s go pick up the car!”
Now that Xiao Ming has made an agreement with his uncle, Chen Xi decided to go over to take a look at the car and meet the people arranged by Uncle Xiao Ming. staff.
Although Uncle Xiao Ming’s Sihai Moving Company is not large in scale, similar to Barnaby’s company, the location is very good and is in a prime location. His uncle bought the place with the intention of waiting for the price to rise before reselling it. .
“They are all elderly uncles.”
"I think it's the uncle."
At the entrance of Sihai Moving Company, Gou Zi and Dongdong met the employees who were arranged to assist Chen Xi.
The average age of these employees is close to forty, and one looks like he is fifty.
They have dark skin and their work clothes look like they haven’t been washed for a long time and are worn crookedly.
Everyone had a cigarette in their mouths, squatting at the door of the warehouse and smoking with a frown on their face.
"Hello, I am Liu Xinwei's nephew..."
"Oh, Mr. Liu's nephew, hello!"
"Why don't you rich second generation eat, drink and have fun?" Come here to do these dirty and tiring jobs? "
"Hey, Mr. Liu, you need to exercise more, you are so thin that you can't move anything."
Xiao Ming stepped forward and said hello to these people. The uncles also stood up and shook hands with him politely.
Different from those in China, employees in Tu'ao generally have little respect for their bosses, and instead the two get along relatively harmoniously.
We also address each other directly by name. That is to say, when they, the elderly Chinese employees, are joking, they will call each other "General".
When Chen Xi used to deliver food, his boss would buy cigarettes for him to smoke every day.
It can be seen from the attitudes of these people that they get along well with Xiao Ming's uncle.
But all of their faces were frowning. What’s going on? Chen Xi was a little puzzled when he saw this.
"Your uncle said, let us help you. Is it a lot of work?"
"Yes, is it a lot of work? We haven't made a bill for a long time."
"Domestic children go to college , still waiting for me to send money back.”< br>
“My daughter is sick, and I still need money for treatment.”
After the greetings, complaints were heard, and Chen Xi finally understood why these guys had that expression just now. It turned out to be because Short of money.
It's true that "a penny can't help a heroic man". People come across the sea to work, not just to earn a living, but some people come out for the sake of the children in China.
"It's a lot of work, but uncles, can you bear it with your bones?"
Dongdong said euphemistically, he was very worried that he would have to give up to these old guys. They pay for medical bills.
"Why, do we look so weak?"
"Boy, you were wearing crotchless pants when we were hanging out with Mr. Liu."
"I used to move bricks at a construction site, what a big deal."
"I usually work a part-time job, it's a trivial job."
"Look at my muscles "
The old guys stood up excitedly after hearing Dongdong's words. Older people are most afraid of someone saying they are old, just like a middle-aged woman, you insist on saying she is old. , calling her grandma, anyone who hears this will be unhappy.
"Uncle, no, brother, I was wrong, stop saying it."
A group of old guys kept pointing at Dongdong, then rolled up their sleeves and showed off their muscles, which made Dongdong's head grow bigger and he quickly begged for mercy.
"There is a lot of work. If you do a good job, I will pay you more. Don't worry." Chen Xi stood up from among the people.
We are all Chinese, and every family has difficulties in reciting sutras. Naturally, we need more help when we are away from home.
As long as these old guys are capable, he doesn't mind adding more money.
“Who is this?”
"Chen Xi, the person in charge of the moving company."
"Oh, don't worry, if we don't do a good job, you can deduct our wages at will."
"Yes, we all can He's an old employee of the moving company. If Mr. Liu hadn't focused on this now, this company would have dominated the Southeast District long ago."
After Chen Xi introduced himself, several old guys started to talk. Mention the story of Sihai Moving Company.
From what these people said, it turned out that Sihai’s business was good, but Xiao Ming’s uncle later worked on other projects, so the company was shelved. I feel like this company is idle here. Otherwise, I want to talk to Xiao Ming's uncle and see if I can hand over the company to him to run it. They are all my nephews anyway.
Chen Xi has already begun to make plans for Sihai Moving Company. After all, this is an old company with a considerable reputation.
Although it is a little lonely now, it can regain its former glory with a little correction.
Chen Xi is no stranger to Sihai Moving Company, they have always used the warehouse here.
However, this was the first time he saw these employees.
"Your uncle doesn't care about this at all now?"
"Well, he is busy with other business in Xicun."
Xiao Ming himself has not seen his uncle for a long time. All contacts are via mobile phone.
"Look at the car first."
Chen Xi asked the uncles to open the garage door. Several trucks were parked inside, but they looked a little dirty. It was obvious that the car had not been washed for a long time. .
"There's no problem with the car. We usually do some business."
"This car is much bigger than the one we have."
"Oh, this car is good, it has a lot of space. No need to pull a second shipment.”
Everyone began to talk about these trucks. After all, Sihai is a professional moving company. It buys medium and large vehicles, and they are also equipped with electric lifting devices, which are used to move large household appliances. It couldn't be better.
In the past, a few of them had to move washing machines and other things, and their waists were almost unbearable. Chen Xi was even worse. He usually had to work at Shazhi's house, and his waist was simply tortured. .
These cars are indeed good, and it would be a waste to sit idle here, but it seems inappropriate to borrow them directly. After all, Xiao Ming's uncle's company is still operating.
After this matter is over, Xiao Ming can be asked to explore his uncle's wishes.
"How about it, are you sure you can knock that Barnaby down?"
Dongdong was obviously very dissatisfied with Barnaby, but he was not dissatisfied with the uncles in front of him. Having too much hope.
"Barnaby and the others are less than twenty people. We have so many people here plus the Internet cafe."
"Against dozens of people versus twenty, I have the advantage!"
Chen Xi said domineeringly with his hands on his hips.
With the help of these uncles, the moving business gradually improved.
After all, they are veterans who have been in this industry for many years. They can propose and improve many important matters that Chen Xi did not pay much attention to before.
And these people are quite powerful, which also changed Dongdong's attitude towards them.
"Brother, I'll move it."
"You can take a rest. This big guy is not as strong as me."
"Yeah, young man, don't stay in the gym all the time. Practice!”
On this day, Dongdong went out to move goods with a few brothers.
A bearded man lifted up a nearly two-meter-long sofa in one fell swoop and began to climb the stairs as fast as he could.
This operation made Dongdong dumbfounded. He originally wanted to go up and help, but the man felt that it was not necessary at all.
“No, be a tough guy, be tough!”
Dongdong shouted out his mantra again, and after saying that, he picked up a large refrigerator and started to go upstairs, feeling in his heart But he complained that the elevator in this apartment would not be bigger, and he still had to carry it upstairs, which was very tiring for him.
“Can you still resist? I don’t see that you can endure hardship.”
“No problem!”
Chen Xi wiped the sweat from his head. The weather is getting colder now, but people who do manual labor don't care at all. They still feel hot even wearing T-shirts!
Now they have re-divided the team and arranged for each person to be with a master, so as to avoid accidents.
There is not much shortage of manpower now, and people in Internet cafes are starting to join the moving team one after another.
Although international students have money, they spend a lot of money playing in Internet cafes every day, and they are too embarrassed to ask their families for money, after all, they have spent it online before.
Chen Xi did not treat them badly. He used high Internet fee recharges as rewards to get them to join his team, and sometimes even took care of their meals.
If a customer leaves a tip, a portion will be shared with them, which makes everyone very satisfied.
“I’ll spray you to death, I’ll spray you to death!” Xiao Ming sat in front of the computer in the Internet cafe, tapping the keyboard constantly to vent his dissatisfaction.
At that time, Internet trolls had not yet appeared in Tuao, so Xiao Ming could only attack Barnaby’s company with words on major forums together with Wang Li and others.
However, such an attack still had a very good effect.
Many customers who had been affected by Barnaby's Company began to come back to us.
In Tu'ao, international students or working people may change their residence at any time, so the moving business still has many repeat customers.
Originally, Xiao Ming wanted to call on all the people in the Internet cafe to come together to protest online, but after thinking about it, he decided not to do it.
If people who play games are affected, they will lose their temper.
The Dota competition is in full swing. Many teams have been eliminated in the past few days, and even Orange and N2C network administrators have participated.
Wang Li and others did not refuse, but welcomed them to join. This would also promote Beyond Internet Cafe, so why not.
