Chapter 187 The female driver disappears

I suddenly noticed the faint ring mark on her ring finger. The wedding ring had been taken off.

  It seems that Wang Qiuya wants to make a break with the past.

 While she was resting, I went back to the site. There were many things waiting for me to deal with.

  还没进门就听见张薇在调度的声音:「七小那边谁顺路?加三块补贴!」

  「怎么才来?」她一见我就把平板塞过来。

  The tone was still filled with dissatisfaction for not sending her off to get off work last night.

  "Order two cups of milk tea, please." I opened the to-do list, and thirteen unprocessed reminders were flashing.

  "Now that the takeout war is going on, a cup is only two yuan, and I can afford it myself." She said this, but her expression softened.

 I took the tablet. The data on the screen jumped. Today, the per capita income of riders has exceeded 400.

  Novices like Li Zhe and Chen Zhipeng even rushed to the top of 600.

  The delivery fee subsidy has been doubled, and the riders feel like they have been stimulated. The site chat group is full of screenshots of orders.

   After a while, Li Zhe ran in with two takeaways. He walked to Zhang Wei's desk: "Weiwei, remember to give me a good review of your takeout!"

   "I got it, go and order!" Zhang Wei urged him to leave.

 In this capital-burning war, merchants are complaining about the platform’s commission, but riders are enjoying a short-term carnival.

  Li Zhe's salary plus bonus this month is almost over 20,000 yuan, which is much higher than his previous salary. Even I am itching to run a few orders.

 Zhang Wei handed me a cup of milk tea: "Today I will treat you, but you have to treat me another day."

 I didn't expect that I was defeated by an army. This milk tea only cost a few yuan. If I took Zhang Wei to have a good meal, I would have lost a few hundred yuan.

  Of course there are advantages, as you can go to Zhang Wei's home naturally.

  "Okay, but I have to wait until the busy period is over." I agreed.

 Zhang Wei took a sip of milk tea and talked about work: "Two people who were interviewing riders came this morning. Seeing that you were not around, I asked them to go back first."

 I glanced at the real-time capacity report and saw that the capacity of more than fifty riders was just saturated under the current order volume.

   "Please remove the information from the recruitment website first, we have enough manpower now."

“Actually, it’s no problem to expand to a hundred people now,” Zhang Wei looked at the order pool that was constantly scrolling on the screen.

  "What about when the subsidy war is over?" I clicked on the average single volume curve of last month.

 "When the order volume drops, more than a hundred riders are competing for orders, and everyone drinks the northwest wind?"

 Young riders will not think too far ahead, but I have to be responsible for the jobs of these brothers.

  I finally made the decision, "It is better to maintain the current scale and keep the data good than to let everyone continue to have single runs."

  "Okay, you are the boss, you have the final say!" Zhang Wei did not argue with me anymore.

  In the afternoon, I drove Wang Qiuya to the company on time.

  She was sitting in the back seat with her eyes closed and concentrating. I wanted to persuade her not to work too hard. But ended up just turning down the air conditioner.

As she was approaching the company, she suddenly said: "Come and pick me up around ten o'clock in the evening."

 After sending Wang Qiuya off, I went directly to the insurance company.

  He Shiyu's case is still stuck at the level of liability determination. The death of the female driver was an accident, and the amount of compensation has never been agreed upon.

· The claims adjuster Xiao Zhang pushed the file bag over and said, "The owner of the other car has lost contact again. We sent letters three times, but she refused to come forward."

· I opened the photos of the scene, and the electric car still maintained the twisted posture when it was hit. "What did her insurance company say?"

  "The insurance company is kicking the ball." Xiao Zhang smiled bitterly.

Medical expenses are a trivial matter nowadays. Even if He Shiyu's salary was compensated based on last month's salary for missing a few months of work, it would still cost 15,000 yuan a month.

  I really didn’t have the energy to spend any more time with the female driver, so I directly contacted Lawyer Ding, whom I had worked with several times.

  Let her have full authority to file a civil lawsuit against the female driver.

 Lawyer Ding spoke concisely on the phone: "The evidence is very sufficient, and there is no problem in filing the case. If you are lucky and the other party is willing to settle after receiving the subpoena, the whole process will be completed in about a month."

  I went to the hospital in the afternoon and told He Shiyu the progress of the mediation.

She was leaning on the bedside, silently watching Li Zhe and Chen Zhipeng in the WeChat group enthusiastically posting screenshots of the day's income. Occasionally, someone would send a red envelope to celebrate breaking the record.

  She locked the screen and sighed softly. There was not much joy on her face: "The subsidies have been high these past few months, which is the time to make money. This time, it was all delayed."

  This hit the most critical and most helpless point.

  "As for compensation, Lawyer Ding said that the calculation of lost wages is mainly based on your average income in the three months before the accident. Even if this year's income is included, it cannot keep up with the current "takeaway war" market." I explained it truthfully.

 This means that even if the lawsuit is won, the lost work losses recognized and supported by the law will be far less than the money she would make if she could really run the order.

This sudden carnival of capital passed her by.

  He Shiyu's tone was quite calm: "I know that's how the law works. A little compensation is better than nothing."

  This is the reality of the bottom workers. An accident may cause them to miss a short golden age.

  "The most important thing is to recover from your injuries first. When you recover, the site will give you priority in dispatching orders. You can make more money in the future." In fact, I don't think she, a girl, needs to work so hard.

  He Shiyu's eyes still stayed on the dazzling income screenshots in the group.

  "Make a short video..." She seemed to be talking to herself or asking me.

“I see that a lot of people are making money from this. I can’t move my feet, but I can still move my hands. Can I just talk to the camera?”

I immediately thought of Charlene’s twisting posture in the live broadcast room and those ambiguous rewards. He Shiyu and Charlene are not the same kind of people at all.

  "Don't think about it. That bowl of rice looks shiny, but it's full of sand when you eat it." I interrupted her.

  "How will you know if it doesn't work if you don't try?" He Shiyu said softly.

  I know I can’t persuade you. This girl has a spirit of unwillingness to admit defeat. Lying in the hospital bed and watching others make money is more uncomfortable than having her bones broken.

  「等出院吧。现在连坐直都费劲,怎么拍?先把这碗汤喝完。」

  她把保温桶接过去,小口小口喝着:「好,我听你的。」

 A few days later, I made a special detour to visit the new store of Sister Wang’s Noodle Shop.

 The previous answer to Ying He Shiyu has been in her heart. Now that she is about to be discharged from the hospital, she must make up for it.

 When we arrived at the new store, Sister Wang was standing behind a steaming soup pot, scooping out noodles.

  “Still the same?” She looked up and saw me, her hands not stopping.

  "Yeah." I found a stool to sit down and ordered a bowl of sausage noodles.

  "He Shiyu has always been thinking about your family."
