From humble beginnings to the pinnacle of life

Chapter 40 Oh no! Something's going to happen!

The two nodded and said no more.

I continued with the arrangements:

"Secondly, we promise to pick up your package within two hours, and dispatch your package on the same day you send it, with absolutely no backlog or delays."

"Third, all packages are packed and waterproofed free of charge, fragile items are specially protected, and photos are taken throughout the process."

Fourth, we offer 24/7 online after-sales service. For lost, damaged, or delayed items, we provide advance compensation so customers don't have to argue or wait.

Fifth, we have added nighttime delivery and pickup services, accepting orders throughout the city from 8 p.m. to midnight.

Each of the five differentiated services is something that established websites cannot or are unwilling to do.

They prioritize convenience and cost-saving, and only offer perfunctory service to customers.

I did the opposite and built my reputation through exceptional service!

After hearing this, Yang Hao and his cousin were momentarily speechless, unable to process it.

I looked at the two of them and continued, "I will immediately print out these five service standards into posters and put them in the most conspicuous place in the station. You two must strictly follow them and are not allowed to be lazy or perfunctory."

Cousin and Yang Hao exchanged a glance before nodding.

Just do it!

I immediately contacted the GG store to make promotional posters, which were not only displayed all over the entrance of the station, but also posted on the bulletin boards of the surrounding communities, the commercial streets along the street, and the shops on the street.

At the same time, my cousin and Yang Hao were arranged to visit each household to promote the product.

I'm so busy all day that I don't even have time to drink water.

Looking back on today's experience, it was even more thrilling than riding a roller coaster.

In just one day, they experienced a meeting with headquarters, a crisis of having their authority revoked, and malicious attacks from competitors.

The ups and downs were more numerous than what I encountered in the week I've been running the shop.

Even in the evening, I didn't rest; I continued to make work plans.

After my cousin finished washing up, seeing me still busy at the computer, he couldn't help but call out:

"Yezi, it's so late, aren't you asleep yet?"

"It's okay, you go to sleep first, I'll rest after I finish tidying up these things."

I didn't even look up, focusing intently on typing.

My cousin walked over slowly, looking at the screen full of densely packed plans and data, with a blank expression.

He sighed softly, "I don't understand these technical things, and I can't be of much help to you. Just let me know if there are any errands or manual labor tasks in the shop."

My heart warmed, and I looked up with a smile, asking, "How was your door-to-door promotion today?"

My cousin rubbed his temples and shook his head, saying, "Not ideal. People are extremely wary these days. When two grown men go door-to-door selling, most people think we're scammers and no one wants to listen to us."

I nodded; it is indeed the biggest problem at present.

Going door-to-door to promote it like this is really not appropriate.

But right now I'm short on funds, so this is the most cost-effective way to promote it.

Just as I was pondering this, my cousin suddenly suggested, "Yezi, Yang Hao mentioned to me this afternoon, should we ask a local internet celebrity to help us beat GG? Internet celebrities have huge traffic and spread information quickly these days, maybe it'll be very effective!"

I gently shook my head, rejecting the idea outright.

Not to mention the exorbitant costs of influencer marketing, which I simply cannot afford right now.

This kind of brand promotion is the responsibility of the headquarters, not something a small regional agent like me should be involved in.

But my cousin's words gave me a new idea.

We're all grown men; it's easy for people to be wary of us going door-to-door to promote our products.

However, if a woman with a friendly appearance and gentle temperament were to promote it, the effect would likely be different.

Of ten passersby, at least half would be willing to stop and patiently listen to the girl's introduction.

Unfortunately, this idea has to be abandoned. I have no money or manpower right now, and I can't hire suitable promoters at all.

I sighed deeply: "It's alright, let's leave it at that for now and take it slow. Tomorrow I'll personally go to several large factories in the surrounding area to connect with them and focus on bulk shipments from the factories."

My cousin nodded, said nothing more, and turned to go into the inner room to rest.

My cousin had just left when my phone on the table suddenly vibrated.

I glanced down at the caller ID and was momentarily stunned.

It was actually Su Qing.

She's completely cut off contact with me these past few days, and I thought she had completely forgotten me.

It's good that I don't have to get involved in her troubles, and I can finally have some peace and quiet.

I didn't expect to receive a call so late at night.

I hesitated for two seconds before pressing the answer button: "What's up so late?"

On the other end of the phone, her assertive and decisive tone remained: "Where are you now?"

"I'm living and eating at the courier store now," I answered truthfully.

"Still not resting so late?" Her tone softened slightly.

I gave a wry smile: "There's a lot going on at the shop, let's talk about it after we're done."

"oh."

After just one word, silence fell over the other end of the phone.

This is completely unlike Su Qing's style. She always speaks her mind directly and never beats around the bush.

I immediately sensed something was wrong and quickly asked, "What's wrong? Did something happen?"

After several seconds of silence, she said softly, with a hint of awkwardness:

"Um... could you lend me some money?"

"Lend me money?" I was stunned for a moment. "You actually want to borrow money from me?"

"Yes, I have nowhere to live, and I'm still wandering the streets." Her tone revealed a hint of embarrassment.

I was even more confused: "Weren't you staying at your best friend's house before? How did you end up homeless?"

"Ugh, don't even mention it. My mom already told her not to take me in. I guess she's right. I agreed to rely on myself, but I've been eating and staying at her house for free these past few days. It doesn't make sense."

I couldn't help but tease, "I didn't expect you to be so self-aware."

"Stop talking nonsense!" she snapped back to her assertive tone. "Transfer me a few hundred yuan right now for emergency use."

"If I lend you money, isn't that indirectly helping you out, which goes against your original intention of being independent?" I asked with a smile.

"It's only a few hundred yuan, enough for one night in a hotel, it's hardly a favor!" Su Qing's tone revealed a hint of irritation.

I immediately raised my voice in surprise, "A hotel that costs several hundred yuan a night? Your spending level is outrageous!"

"Can you stop dawdling and just transfer it to me already!" She was completely impatient, and her tone was very forceful.

Just as I was about to agree, a frivolous male voice suddenly came from the other end of the phone.

"Hey pretty girl, wandering around the streets alone so late at night, did you have a fight with your boyfriend?"

"Don't stay alone, come with your brother and have a couple of drinks with us. After you drink, you won't have any more worries."

The moment I heard those words, my heart sank!

A lone girl is approached by a strange man on the street late at night—something is definitely going to happen!

I immediately became alert and hurriedly asked, "Su Qing, where exactly are you right now?"

Before she could answer, a panicked scream suddenly rang out on the phone:

"Ah! Don't touch me! You pervert, get away!"

Oh no! Something really has happened!

I immediately yelled into the phone, "Su Qing! Tell me your location! Where are you?!"

"I am here……"

She was interrupted again halfway through her sentence.

Then came another scream of terror: "Ah! Don't touch me! Get away from me!"

I was sweating profusely with anxiety: "Speak! Tell me where you are!"

After a brief struggle, her hurried voice came from the other end of the phone: "I'm at the Xiaxi Road bus stop..."

The phone was abruptly disconnected with a "click" as soon as he finished speaking.

I immediately felt nervous; I knew the Xiaxi Road area all too well.

It consists of old streets and alleys with dim streetlights and few people. At night, almost no one passes by, making it remote and dangerous.

She was a pampered girl, all alone in that kind of place, and the consequences of her encountering thugs were unimaginable!

Without a moment's hesitation, I grabbed the motorcycle keys from the table and rushed out of the station.

I hopped on my bike and sprinted at full speed, hurtling towards Xiaxi Road...
