The private room on the second floor is warm as spring.

In addition to the heating provided by the collective supply of the row of stores in the teahouse, there is also a delicate and beautiful charcoal stove burning on the inside of the tea table, which is used to make tea in winter, usually the furnace door is closed, the furnace mouth is not opened, and when a guest comes to open the furnace door and the furnace mouth, the furnace fire will happily jump out of the furnace mouth and lick the bottom of the copper kettle, and it will only take ten minutes at most to boil a pot of water. In addition, the charcoal stove itself and the smoke exhaust pipe that stretches straight up to the roof and stretches out of the window can also dissipate heat for heating.

Feng Pingyao, who was wearing a dark brown silk satin dress embroidered with cloud edges, calmly made a pot of red robes, put it on the table and did not make tea, and said indifferently: "It's good to drink the flush after drinking, you can drink three bubbles." ”

With that, Feng Pingyao turned around and walked out.

Qian Ming picked up the teapot and poured tea for Su Chunfeng and Zhao Shangang, and said: "Since I have accompanied Mr. Zhao to drink tea here, I have really tasted a little different. ”

Zhao Shangang joked: "If Mr. Qian makes tea again, the taste will be even more different......

Su Chunfeng smiled and nodded.

After knowing Su Chunfeng a few years ago, after being instructed by him three or two times, it was like Qian Ming, who was enlightened and suddenly opened, and the foundation of the magic cultivation became more and more solid, since worshipping Su Chunfeng as a teacher, the cultivation has been steadily improved, and last year was spurred by Su Chunfeng to remind him to concentrate on cultivation and rush to the level, and he entered the late stage of purification in one fell swoop a year ago. Although his physical condition is unbearable now, his temperament and mood are different from the past. For example, when he sits with a heroic figure like Zhao Shangang now, and does the thing of pouring tea and water, he does not have the previous feeling of restraint and unwillingness in his heart, but knows that his friends sit idly, no matter who pours tea and water, it is just at will, and there is no so-called status at all.

Not to mention embarrassing and pretentious.

Don't underestimate such trivial things that seem not worth mentioning, after really having too much contact with people like Zhao Shangang, most people will inevitably have a feeling of being under others when they do such a trivial matter of pouring tea and water in this situation - it is not that Zhao Shangang is too self-conscious, but that he is naturally domineering.

Zhao Shangang said: "Chunfeng, two days ago, I heard Chen Yufang and Mr. Chen mention on the phone, saying that Vantone Logistics plans to set up an express company, is there such a thing?" ”

"Hmm." Su Chunfeng nodded.

Zhao Shangang pondered and said: "To be honest, last year I had a plan to engage in freight companies, with the provincial capital Zhongzhou City as the center, to develop logistics special lines to provincial capitals and municipalities directly under the central government. When I went to Zhongzhou City on a business trip last year, I found that the freight industry is much more prosperous than Binh Duong City, and the benefits are relatively high, so I was moved. This time, when I heard Mr. Chen talk about the express delivery business, I thought that since it is similar to the logistics line, how about our company also participate in the cooperation? Don't get me wrong, I mean, I set up a separate logistics line for freight on my side, and then the development of Vantone Express business can overlap with my side, so that our two companies can integrate the two in the layout of outlets, and save rent and staff costs in a large range. ”

Su Chunfeng thought for a moment and said: "The goal of the express company is nationwide, and the goal is not only the provincial capitals and municipalities directly under the central government, but the company's outlets are laid to all cities, counties and districts across the country. ”

"In the early days, Vantone's express company could not have developed so much at the beginning, not to mention the huge cost, and the outlets could not achieve full coverage so early." Zhao Shangang rarely refuted Su Chunfeng's thoughts, and said seriously: "Step by step, when the time comes, the two of us will merge again, and we can't talk about who annexes whom, anyway, we are all our own people...... Of course, it would be best if we did it together now. ”

Su Chunfeng frowned slightly, contemplating his eyebrows and thinking deeply, Zhao Shangang's mention did make him tempted, in the current social and economic development environment, if the express company simply takes small parcels and mail as the main service, it is indeed difficult to get benefits, and it must coincide with the logistics of large freight to save costs and expenses, in order to make up for the shortcomings in this regard. But if you cooperate with Zhao Shangang, you have to take into account Zhao Shangang's identity and the path he took, and whether he would be implicated in anything in the future. If it weren't for these, Su Chunfeng would not have resolutely advised his father to exchange the shares of the two companies with Zhao Shangang, so that Zhao Shangang withdrew from Vantone Logistics.

"Chunfeng ......" Qian Ming's expression showed a slight hint of solicitation.

Su Chunfeng nodded, motioning for him to speak.

Qian Ming said seriously: "I don't know if you have an understanding of the current freight industry in the country, but in my and Mr. Zhao's understanding of this industry, express delivery should be an upgraded version of the logistics line, most of the current special line transportation companies, in fact, mainly to accept LTL freight, the so-called LTL is a small package, because the consignment is small, fragmented, so it is called LTL, trivial but extremely profitable." At present, there is a very important point in this industry in our country, which cannot be ignored...... The fierce competition is extremely high, especially in the big cities, and there is vicious competition, which does not refer to freight prices, but to violent means. ”

"Huh?" Su Chunfeng looked puzzled, he really didn't know much about this aspect.

Qian Ming glanced at Zhao Shangang, and then continued: "At present, several large logistics line companies in the country, including the vast majority of small and medium-sized logistics lines, have a common denominator that cannot be ignored. ”

"What?"

"Northeast Gang!" Qian Ming didn't wait for Su Chunfeng to continue asking, and explained: "I dare not say that all parts of the country, at least seventy or eighty percent, especially in large cities, almost all have people from the Northeast in the freight industry, especially large special line transportation companies...... In fact, China's freight industry is in the early stage of rapid development, there is no industry norms, and there are great profits in this industry, and vicious competition with violence as the main means is generally there. ”

Su Chunfeng frowned and looked at Zhao Shangang and said, "Are you sure?" ”

"Yes." Zhao Shangang took a sip of tea and said: "After I had this idea last year, I went to Zhongzhou City with Mr. Qian, and also went to Beijing, Zhonghai, Jingang, and Guangdong Province to investigate, and also contacted and understood the people of several freight line company branches developed in Pingyang City. ”

Su Chunfeng nodded, and sighed in his heart the sentence that the great man once taught: "Without investigation, there is no right to speak." ”

This kind of dirty and bad means in private, it seems that it should not be in the eyes of the serious people who want to be a big businessman, but if you think about it carefully, Wantong Logistics is engaged in the national layout of express delivery companies, not to mention the so-called Northeast Gang, just talking about the local snakes in this industry, it is enough to give people a headache - every day, everywhere, there are local veteran freight companies to arrange people to your branch to find fault, provoke, make trouble, or stumble behind your back, what else do you do in business?

This is an industry that is in the early stage but has begun to develop rapidly, and there is no industry standard, and the country does not have a sound legal system in this regard.

Su Chunfeng suddenly wanted to retreat.

Vantone Logistics is very good now, why take a great risk and invest hundreds of millions or more of money to engage in any express company? People, contentment and happiness......

But as soon as this thought appeared, it was resolutely put aside by Su Chunfeng. Even if he wants to withdraw, his father and aunt will not agree, the initial draft plan has come out, and the shareholders of the company have also received a notice that a meeting will be held on the twelfth day of the first month to discuss the establishment of a courier company.

Are you kidding?

What's more, development is the last word!

In this era of economic take-off, standing still is equivalent to going backwards, and it will be eliminated!

Seeing Su Chunfeng's hesitant contemplative appearance, Qian Ming said in a somewhat tentative tone: "In this regard, Mr. Zhao and the people of our company are suitable to open the way......"

Su Chunfeng didn't respond, just pondered.

Zhao Shangang said: "Not into the shares, but the two companies reached a cooperation agreement, once something happens, the express company of Vantone Logistics is clean." ”

Su Chunfeng narrowed his eyes, took a sip of tea from a teacup, and said seemingly casually: "The strong dragon doesn't suppress the head snake, not to mention that it may have to run around to extinguish the fire, can you do it?" ”

Zhao Shangang smiled: "It's not a raptor, but it's not a ...... Jiang."

Su Chunfeng sighed, gently knocked the middle finger of his right hand on the table, and said lightly: "On the morning of the twelfth day of the first month, Vantone Logistics held a shareholders' meeting to discuss the establishment of an express company, I will say hello to my father and aunt, you also go to participate, I want to come to Mr. Yan and Mr. Xu, they are also willing to let you participate, as for whether to directly invest in the shares or operate in the name of cooperation between the two companies, you can negotiate with them, I will not participate." ”

This is already equivalent to permission.

Zhao Shangang nodded, and breathed a sigh of relief in his heart - except for Su Chunfeng, he had never felt an extremely irresistible pressure in front of anyone, it was an indescribable pressure!

The three of them chatted for a while, and after drinking the three teas, they got up and left.

Su Chunfeng opened the curtain and walked out of the private room first.

The hall outside was as quiet and deserted as ever, but by the tea table near the window in the northwest corner, I don't know when a strange tea guest sat down, and there was a shiny and crooked wooden stick next to the table—the tea guest sat with his back to Su Chunfeng's private room, ragged and unkempt.

In any other food-related store, I am afraid that such an old beggar would not be allowed to enter.

But the Golden Tea House is different.

Because the boss is different from ordinary people, and the old beggar is also extraordinary.

Su Chunfeng walked to the staircase, and like any ordinary person, he turned around curiously and walked over, stood in front of the old beggar and looked down, and said with a smile: "Old man, you have a good life this day." ”
