I also saw the news. The old e-commerce giant did say that it would enter the food delivery industry.
"Let's talk more about it when we have dinner together in the evening." Actually, I have no intention of changing jobs.
At around eight o'clock in the evening, several fellow riders arrived at the Big Banyan Tree Restaurant one after another.
As soon as she sat down, Yang Lijuan asked curiously: "Hey, Chen Hao, where did that big fish come from during the day? It was too big!"
Zhang Guangtian poured the beer and interjected: "That's right, you kid has changed his career to selling fish, right?"
I briefly talked about delivering medicine to the fishing guy.
After hearing this, everyone burst into laughter. Zhang Guangtian smiled and said, "Okay, Chen Hao! You have always had better luck!"
The restaurant waiters brought the dishes one after another, and the boss arranged the large grass carp that weighed more than ten kilograms.
The fish head was stewed in tofu soup, the fish body was made into pickled fish fillets, salt and pepper fish bones, pan-fried fish steaks, and even the fish tail was braised in a thick oily red sauce, which was served on eight large plates.
Zhang Guangtian picked up a pickled fish with chopsticks and couldn't help but praise: "The fish is as tender as tofu, without any earthy smell at all!"
Yang Lijuan scooped up a bowl of fish soup: "It's so fresh ! This is the first time I have tasted such a delicious fish soup. "
"This fish is purely wild and cannot be eaten in ordinary restaurants. In addition, the fish is big enough, and the bigger the fish, the more delicious the stew will be." I introduced.
He Shiyu raised his glass: "Here's a toast to you. If it weren't for you, we wouldn't be able to eat such delicious fish."
After three rounds of drinking, Zhang Guangtian brought up the matter of the webmaster transferring the site again.
He blushed and patted his chest: "Brothers, if you can trust me, if you really want to change jobs, just ask!"
He Shiyu picked up a piece of pan-fried fish fillet and asked hesitantly: " But can the order volume of the new platform keep up? Don’t worry about it for a long time, it’s better than now.”
“I heard that the e-commerce company spent a lot of money on subsidies, and the initial unit price must be high!” Li Minghua took a sip of beer.
"But it's probably a price war again. Once the market is gone, we'll squeeze the riders."
Zhang Guangtian hurriedly answered: "So we have to seize the opportunity as soon as possible! Who will want us when the team is built up?"
Li Minghua was a little interested: "How high can the subsidy of the new platform be? If it is really two yuan more per order than now, I really want to try it!"
He said, taking out his mobile phone and starting to look up the calculator, "If you run an extra twenty orders a day, you can make a lot more money in a month."
Zhang Guangtian immediately became energetic, put his arm around Li Minghua's shoulders and introduced him warmly.
He Shiyu looked at me: "Chen Hao, why are you just eating and not talking? I think you are the calmest."
I picked up a piece of fish with chopsticks and said, "Me? I'd better wait and see. E-commerce This is not the first time that a platform has launched a food delivery service. Last year, there was a big fuss, but it was shut down within three months, and the rider was owed hundreds of thousands of unpaid wages.”
The table suddenly became quiet, and even Zhang Guangtian stopped gesticulating.
“What you said makes sense, so I’ll wait and see first.” He Shiyu said taking advantage of the situation and picked up a fish steak.
"I won't talk about this today. Let's eat more. Don't let such good food go to waste." I don't want to discuss this topic anymore.
Zhang Guangtian also softened his tone upon seeing this, raised his glass and said with a smile: "Okay, OK, we'll talk about work later! This meal tonight is thanks to Chen Hao, come on, let's go!"
While the conversation was lively, my phone suddenly vibrated on the table.
The number of the Diaoyu Man's ex-wife lit up on the screen. When Zhang Guangtian saw it, he smiled and said, "Everyone be quiet! Chen Hao's girlfriend is on duty!"
The box was silent for a moment. I walked aside and picked up the phone, and the young woman's voice came: "I'm hungry now, please bring me a takeaway."
"If you don't come, I will go to your site tomorrow to make trouble for you, saying that you are playing with my feelings."
"No, I will send it to you right away." I will appease this crazy woman first.
"Then come here as soon as possible, I can't wait any longer." The young woman said a few more words and then hung up the phone.
After I went to the kitchen and ordered a dish, I returned to the private room, thinking about finding an excuse to leave.
After a few minutes, I stood up with a glass of wine: "You drink slowly, I have to go back first."
Zhang Guangtian muttered: "It's really disappointing, I can't drink until dawn like before."
The others didn't hold me back anymore, they drank a glass together and let me go.
I walked out of the restaurant and flagged down a taxi.
The driver turned on the idle light, and I opened the door and sat in the back seat. What I reported was not my home address, but the name of the community where the fishing guy lived in the west of the city.
After a while, I knocked on the door of a house in the community.
The ex-wife of the fisherman in cool pajamas opened the door and leaned lazily on the doorframe: "Why are you here?"
I handed over the takeaway: "Something delayed me."
"Come in first, I need your help with something." She walked to the living room with her long legs, the silk fabric of her pajamas swaying gently with her steps.
I could only follow in and scan the empty living room: "Your ex-husband was bitten by a snake, is he okay?"
She sighed and sat on the sofa, deliberately letting the hem of her nightgown slide up a little: "I won't die, I'll probably have to lie down for a few days."
"You are all divorced, why are you still going to see him?" I asked puzzledly.
"He gave me the house, so I have to show some conscience." The young woman responded, patting the empty space next to her,
"Sit here, why are you standing so far away? My water pipe is broken, I need your help to repair it."
I deliberately chose a single sofa and sat down: "What is the specific situation?"
She chuckled, stood up and walked to me: "The problem is not the water pipe, but the shower head in the bathroom. When the water valve is turned to the far left, it will make a strange noise, which makes people panic."
“Then take me to see him.” I stood up and kept an arm’s length away.
She led me to the bathroom, and I walked in. There was a big bucket inside that was pumping oxygen, and there were several crucian carp swimming in the bucket.
"Looking at these things, the fisherman still comes back often?" I secretly guessed.
When I bent down to check, she suddenly approached from behind: "Actually, it's not really bad, I just wanted to see if you would come."
I immediately straightened up and took half a step back: "Since it's not bad, I'll go back first."
She blocked the way, her eyes ambiguous: "You're already here, why are you leaving in such a hurry?"
I turned sideways to avoid her touch: "I'm here to deliver food. Since there's no problem, I won't bother you."
She bit her lower lip and her tone was a bit provocative: "Are you really here to fix the water pipes? Don't you want to fix something else?"
I took a deep breath and decisively walked to the door: "It's getting late, you should go to bed early."
She stopped me from behind, "You just left like that?"
I didn't look back, I just made an excuse: "My girlfriend is waiting for me at home."
Coming out of the community made me sober up a lot. It’s better not to start this ambiguous game.
