Chapter 1: The Strange Empty Bag
Recently, there was news on the Internet that some shopkeepers of a certain treasure sent shrouds to customers because of the bad reviews given by customers, and many people think that this is a very scary thing, but in fact, this is nothing, I have seen more terrible things sent by courier, because I am a courier.
My name is Ji Wen, I am 21 years old this year, my hometown is in Chongzhou, Sichuan, I graduated from high school that year and was not admitted to university, so I chose to work out in desperation, and finally came to Zhongwei City, Ningxia, a little-known city.
When I first entered the society, I felt that everything was so simple, even if I had no education, as long as I was willing to endure hardships, sooner or later I would have to make a fortune, but after a few years in the society, I finally understood that the dream of making a fortune was something that I couldn't afford to do with a young man with no education, no money, and no background.
To be honest, the courier can be done anywhere, and I can go back to my hometown to work, so the cost can be reduced, but I didn't do it because I was in high spirits when I left my hometown, although I didn't turn my back to my friends and say, 'I won't come back', but if I let my friends and family know that I was a courier, I still feel extremely awkward and uncomfortable.
Because of this, even if I work in other places, I still have a little inexplicable peace of mind in my heart, and when asked by family and friends, I usually say that I am a worker in a factory, and the salary is very good, but they can't see my self-deprecating smile over the phone.
I work in the North Street branch of XX Express, the owner of this branch is called Zhang Peng, is a skinny middle-aged man in his thirties, usually not in the store, either to go out to talk about customers, or to go out to play mahjong, the store is generally only guarded by his wife, and after a long time, his wife complained, almost every time he saw the boss in the store, he was quarreling with his wife.
When they quarrel with them, I usually don't follow along, and I pack up and go home after doing my own things every day. Sometimes I envy the boss Zhang Peng, and I say that if I have such an express store, can I be as idle as him.
In fact, my daily work is not particularly tired, at half past eight in the morning to the store riding an electric tricycle to the headquarters to unload the goods, the goods belonging to our area are found out to scan and load, and then begin to deliver one by one, although our area is not too big, but the community is a lot, so it is also a little troublesome to send, when I first started working, because I am not very familiar with this Zhongwei City, I have to send a hundred express delivery to eight or nine o'clock in the evening every day, so that the boss almost fired me, and finally slowly became familiar, Every day at most until three o'clock in the afternoon, it will be completely delivered.,Go home and sleep and play LOL or something.。
My salary for each express delivery is one yuan, so calculated, I can get three or four thousand yuan a month, the income is also good, the only bad point is that you can't easily ask for leave, every time I have something to ask for leave, the boss's face is long, because I ask for leave, the matter of sending the express will fall on the boss.
I have been working here for more than a year, and I have saved more than 20,000 yuan, and in two years, I can borrow some money from my family to contract a courier branch of my own here.
I got up on time at eight o'clock this morning, hurriedly ate some leftover things from last night and went to work, where I live is not very far from where I work, about five minutes to arrive, this rental room has a toilet, six thousand rent a year, for me has been quite satisfied, the only deficiency is the appearance of this building, the surface of the turn has long been blackened, it looks as if it was built before liberation, it seems to collapse at any time, there is no light in the corridor, if you come back late at night, Going upstairs can scare a cold sweat.
When I arrived at the store, the proprietress had already opened the door, and I put on my work clothes and carried the express delivery and batteries that the store had received yesterday afternoon to the car and set off for the main store.
The location of the main store is a little far, and when I arrived at the main store in about ten minutes, the big truck from Yinchuan City, the superior station, was already waiting, and there were several couriers from other branches who had already begun to distribute the goods.
"Ji Wen, I'm a little late today."
I was talking to Xiao Wang, the courier of the West Street Branch, and his colleague Xiao Li was standing next to him, I don't know what their names were, both of them were as old as me, and they usually chatted with them when they were distributing the goods in the morning, and there was no communication.
This courier company in Zhongwei City in addition to the head office has five branches, the other three branches of the courier are newcomers, I can't name it, so I stepped forward to chat with Xiao Wang Xiao Li while distributing the goods.
I am familiar with the way I casually glanced at the goods on the express order to know whether it is my goods, soon a whole car of express delivery was divided by our several branch couriers, I one by one will be like building blocks according to my delivery route piled into their own electric tricycle, suddenly a courier caught my attention.
This is a courier about the size of a shoebox, the surface is wrapped in a cardboard box of the same size, it seems that the volume is not small, but it is fluttering in the hand, it seems to be just an empty package.
I'm not surprised by this kind of empty package, and now the e-commerce companies of a treasure often mail this kind of 'brushing' express delivery in order to brush up on reputation, I didn't think much about it at the time, loaded the package into the car, and said goodbye to Xiao Wang Xiaoli and began to deliver.
The sun in the north is very strong, unlike us in Sichuan, where it is rare to see the sun. Under the scorching sun, I was able to finish half of the delivery before half past twelve, so I found a noodle restaurant for lunch and began to continue delivering.
Soon it was sent to my last station, the Great Wall Community, looking at the only six or seven couriers left in the carriage, I was also relieved, and was about to call the owners of these couriers one by one, when I suddenly saw the 'empty package' that I saw in the morning, picked it up and took a closer look and found that there was no information about the sender, but the recipient address and recipient, but it made me frown.
To be honest, in the more than a year of being a courier, I have seen a lot of people of all shapes, some of them are really good to our couriers, and they will let me go in to drink saliva and eat a fruit when they are familiar with each other, but this kind of person is a minority after all, and most people look down on the profession of courier.
Perhaps this also confirms the saying, if you don't work hard, the boss will send the express.
Coincidentally, the empty bag in his hand is a difficult customer.
This person's name is Yang Xiaoxia, she is a woman in her thirties, how ugly and ugly the fat is, I remember the first time I sent this Yang Xiaoxia to express delivery, I politely called her to inform her, but she scolded me on the phone.
"Do all of your courier companies let people go downstairs to pick up the goods? So what are you couriers doing like this? Send it to me in a minute, or I'll complain about you! ”
This kind of person is the most embarrassing, what can't you say well? Even if you don't have the time to come out and let me send it, I will definitely send it, but this woman is like how much money I owe her, listening to me is gritting my teeth, sometimes I really don't want to continue to work when I meet this kind of person, and I still suffer from such a bird anger when I earn you a dollar.
But although I was angry, I didn't dare to talk back to her on the phone, after all, if I received a complaint from a customer, I would be two days in vain.
I sighed slightly, and after sending the other customers' couriers, I took this empty bag and walked towards Yang Xiaoxia's house, anyway, it is a waste to call, and it is easy to send it to her directly.
Yang Xiaoxia's family lives on the sixth floor, and I came to her door and knocked gently.
It was a full five or six seconds before a very impatient woman's voice came from inside.
"Who? What are you knocking on the door for at this time? ”
I wondered for a while, and my heart said that it was only two o'clock at this time, so what's wrong with knocking on the door?
After a while, there was a sound of footsteps in the room, the door was opened, and I saw Yang Xiaoxia, who was fat, wearing a very sassy floral dress, but standing at the door in disheveled clothes, looking down, she was actually wearing a pair of men's leather shoes on her feet.
Seeing this scene, I guessed it, it turned out who she was in the room with, no wonder it took a long time to knock on the door and open the door.
"Hello, this is your courier, please sign for it."
I reached out and handed the courier and pen to Yang Xiaoxia, but turned my head to the side, I really didn't want to look at this person more.
Who knew that Yang Xiaoxia saw that I was knocking on the door, and immediately said angrily: "How did you deliver the courier?" Don't know how to call me before you send it? Do you know that it's rude to knock on someone's door casually? ”
When I heard this, I immediately became angry, and said with a strong anger: "But the last time I called you, didn't you ask me to send it up personally?" ”
"Dare to talk back to me? Which courier company are you? I'm going to complain about you! An uneducated courier like you should complain a few times! ”
When I heard such a sentence, I felt my head buzzing, and my hands trembled, and I almost couldn't help beating this fat woman on the spot.
"I don't know who TM is uneducated, do you want to love things, if you want to complain, you dead fat woman Lao Tzu has endured you for a long time!"
Maybe Yang Xiaoxia didn't expect me to suddenly turn my face, some didn't come back to my senses, and I directly tore off the express order on the courier, threw the courier into her room, and said while going downstairs: "Dead fat woman, next time I have your courier, I won't send it, if I want to leave it in the gatehouse of your community, see who is willing to send it to you!" ”
After speaking, I had already gone down to the fifth floor, and Yang Xiaoxia's angry scolding full of dirty words came from upstairs, and I could vaguely hear a man's dissuasion.
After the things were delivered, I rode the car to the store to sign the list in my hand, and then I was ready to go home to rest, although today may be a few hundred dollars less because of a complaint, but my heart is extremely comfortable, this kind of people who do not treat others as people, others will naturally not treat her as a person, I believe that I am not the only one who is angered by her.
When I got home, I was in a good mood and was about to put on the gold, when I suddenly heard a knock on the door.
I hurriedly got up and opened the door, only to find two uniformed police officers standing in the doorway.
The police knocked on the door, which was the first time in my life, and asked curiously, "Who are you looking for?" ”
One of the policemen smiled slightly and asked kindly, "May I ask if you are Ji Wen?" ”
"yes? Is there anything wrong with the police comrade looking for me? ”
"That's right, at three o'clock this afternoon, there was a family of two in the Great Wall community who fell to their deaths, it is said that before that, you sent a courier to the family, and there was a dispute with them, we just came to understand the situation."
