Chapter 935: Forbearance
Ye Ming's judgment was not wrong at all: as soon as this Mu Dao arrived at the car, he began to secretly observe each tourist, and analyzed and judged the "gold content" of this car of tourists. [No pop-ups]
There are three types of guests that are most popular with general tour guides: the first type is those young and middle-aged men who wear thick gold necklaces and gold rings and like to babble, especially those who bring lovers or wives "local tyrants". This kind of local tyrant likes to talk about face and show off his wealth, so they will take the initiative to sign up for general self-funded projects; When they arrive at shopping spots, they don't need to be advertised by tour guides, and they will rush to buy souvenirs and luxury goods that they may not need at all.
The second category is the officials who secretly take the junior out for tourism. This kind of person can also be seen at a glance by some experienced tour guides. These officials usually can't spend much time with their mistresses at home, and when they travel outside, they want to try their best to compensate them. Moreover, they also have endless money to spend. Therefore, such people are also very generous when they see self-paid attractions and shopping, and often bring additional surprises to the tour guide;
The third category is the cadres and workers of government agencies, public institutions, or state-owned enterprises with particularly good efficiency. These people generally talk about face, and many self-funded projects are publicly-funded tours, and don't pay out of pocket, so generally as long as the tour guide introduces a certain self-paid project, they will go to see it. Moreover, when shopping, they also like to engage in "group buying", as long as someone in a unit takes the lead in shopping, the rest of the people will basically buy a little, so that the accumulation of the tour guide is also a lot of rebates......
The least favorite guests of tour guides are those middle-aged and elderly couples, student tour groups, and individual tourists who come out for one or two people to travel. It's unfortunate: today's tour guide surnamed Mu is basically a "poor group" mainly composed of middle-aged and elderly couples, with a few students and individual tourists. Therefore, although she was very enthusiastic about greeting, joking, and singing Xintianyou as soon as she came up, out of professional habits, after carefully observing the composition of these tourists in the car, her face showed obvious disappointment-this point, which could not escape Ye Ming's eyes......
There is no highway from P City to Huangling County, and you can only take a provincial road with potholes, so the speed is relatively slow. After the tour bus drove for about half an hour, the tour guide surnamed Mu suddenly said to everyone: "Tourists and friends, wait a minute, our bus master will stop in front of a bamboo charcoal products shopping mall, everyone go to this shopping mall to go to a toilet, and by the way, take a look at the unique and green bamboo charcoal products there." Please note: Before entering the mall, you must first go to the mall staff to get a visit ticket, otherwise you will not be able to go to the toilet! ”
Ye Ming knew that the toilet that the tour guide said was actually to lead everyone to go shopping, thinking that the car had just driven out, and the tour guide arranged for everyone to go shopping, so he couldn't help but feel a little angry, so he raised his voice and asked: "Director Mu, is this bamboo charcoal products shopping mall a shopping spot in our group?" Our contract is written: this three-day and two-night trip will arrange a maximum of two self-pay programs and three shopping attractions. If there are too many shopping spots, it will delay our time. ”
The tour guide surnamed Mu was stunned for a moment, glanced at Ye Ming, and said a little dissatisfied: "This gentleman, I just said: wait a minute, let everyone go to the toilet in that shopping mall, and by the way, take a look at the products in the shopping mall, and buy a little if you want to buy it, this is not a shopping attraction!" ”
Ye Ming heard her say that this was not a shopping attraction, and knew that she wanted to take advantage of the loophole in the contract, so he sneered and said, "Director Mu, since this shopping mall is not a shopping attraction, then my friend and I will not go in because we don't want to go to the toilet." ”
The reason why Ye Ming said this is because he knows that the tour guide fools everyone to get a "visit ticket" to go to the toilet, in fact, the "visit ticket" is the basis for her and the bus driver's commission - because many shopping malls in tourist areas use this method to attract tourists: tour guides and drivers bring tourists to the shopping mall, regardless of whether the tourists consume or not, as long as they enter the shopping mall, the tour guide and the driver can receive a "guide fee" of 3-5 yuan per person according to the head......
As soon as Director Mu heard Ye Ming's words, he knew that he was an "old oilman" who had participated in group tours many times and was well-informed, and he was also the kind of "thorn-headed tourist" that the tour guides hated the most and were the most reluctant to bring: because this kind of "old oilman" and "thorn-headed tourist" had traveled outside many times and were used to seeing the tricks of the tour guides, so no matter where they went, they would not buy the products recommended by the tour guides. Not only that, but they will also dissuade other tourists not to buy things, which directly harms the interests of the tour guide.
And now, Director Mu has found that this young man who questioned himself loudly must be an "old oilman" and "thorn".
In order to prevent other tourists from being affected by this "old oil customer", Director Mu immediately put down the face that had been smiling, and said a little dissatisfied: "This gentleman, if you don't go to the toilet, that's your freedom, and I can't force you." However, I hope you don't talk nonsense and affect the mood of other tourists and friends. It is not easy for us to get up early and touch the dark every day as tour guides, serve tourists and friends, and make some money. I hope you will be considerate of us and stop saying those agitating and inflammatory words! ”
At this time, the driver, who was five big and three thick, and looked relatively strong, also slowed down the car, turned his head and glared at Ye Ming, and also said: "Little brother, now that the economic situation is sluggish, it is not easy for us to eat. So, there are some things that you just need to know in your own heart, and don't make everyone unhappy. I believe that most of the tourists still understand us and support us. Therefore, please try your best to understand and cooperate with our work in the next travel time, and do not stir up trouble. ”
The tour guide and the driver sang and harmonized, the purpose was to suppress Ye Ming and make him stop questioning the problem of them taking tourists to shopping attractions, so as not to affect other tourists and cause a collective confrontation, then they ran away in vain......
Ye Ming heard that Director Mu and the driver had a bit of a threatening taste in their mouths, and he was even more angry, and just wanted to refute them a few more words, Chen Mengqi, who was sitting next to him, hurriedly pulled his hand and whispered: "Brother, they are the head snakes, don't quarrel with them, it will make everyone unhappy at that time." She arranged for us to go to the toilet in the mall, and we went down to just walk around the mall and didn't buy anything, and they couldn't do anything, right? Why be so angry with them? ”
Ye Ming thought about it and felt that Chen Mengqi was right, so he didn't say anything more.
