Ichiro Sakai squatted outside the talent market in Wushi, with a group of rustic-dressed migrant workers in front of him and behind him. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info He was in his thirties, with a strong physique, a modest face, and a cheap camouflage uniform, which was nothing to show in the crowd.

A bunch of migrant workers waited outside the market, and occasionally someone came to recruit workers. Generally, it is odd jobs such as decoration. Workers with some skills can get a few hundred yuan a day, and there are also younger people who have little skills, so they can only be hired to do some temporary work or porter work.

Ichiro Sakai is full of Shaanxi accent and looks very honest, and when someone asks him, he says that he is from Xi'an. His physique from the gym looked good, and several customers came to ask him. The price was very good, but he just asked where he worked and shook his head to make excuses not to go.

As an economic spy, Ichiro Sakai's mission is to wander around the flower planter's house. He did not have any special tasks, nor did he go to dangerous places, but only collected economic data on the cultivation of flowers through various market channels as a basis for Japan's foreign policy decisions.

In fact, most spies do not need any special means to spy on all kinds of intelligence, and a lot of information can be reflected through open channels, and whether they can obtain it depends on whether the intelligence officer has a meticulous heart.

Ichiro Sakai has been working in the flower grower for ten years, and his work is dull but productive. Every time, he was able to judge a big problem from some seemingly ordinary angle, and repeatedly sorted it out as a reference material for the Japanese Minister of Finance and Economics and even the Prime Minister.

And this time, some economic anomalies that suddenly appeared in Wushi were very surprising, and Ichiro Sakai wanted to investigate them.

The so-called 'abnormality' manifests itself in many ways. For example, Singapore Airlines has returned to independent operations, its special low price has attracted a large number of customers, and the size of its fleet has suddenly skyrocketed tenfold, becoming an important key node in the transformation of the city of Wuhan and the entire northwest region.

Ichiro Sakai didn't want to investigate the airline at first, because this kind of formation of a large state-owned enterprise and making it bigger and stronger is common in the flower planter. The flower-planting government often does this by executive order, and its efficiency in governing is among the best in the world.

But Ichiro Sakai found some very puzzling conditions when observing the streets of Ushi. Many agricultural and sideline products in the northwest are in demand, and various coastal seafood products have emerged, the quantity is particularly huge, and the price is very good.

The number of people visiting the northwest has also increased significantly, driving a lot of economic consumption. Obviously, this is the result of a huge improvement in the logistics system.

Ichiro Sakai initially judged that this was only a temporary situation. After a period of time, SIA's low discount not only did not end, but even had the meaning of long-term.

In the past, due to the high cost of logistics, the transportation of goods had to be in large quantities to be cost-effective. But a large quantity must be exploited by middlemen, a few cents or even a few cents a pound of agricultural products in the field, when served to the table, a few yuan or even dozens of dollars a pound.

Now with the participation of e-commerce and express delivery, merchants in the northwest can directly trade with customers in the southeast, and the price of goods can drop sharply, and the transaction volume will rise rapidly. If this situation of low-cost logistics is stable, the promotion of economic growth is very significant.

At that time, Japan relied on the Shinkansen to detonate the country's economic development, and now the logistics of the northwest have greatly improved, which will also be a huge event.

"I can't imagine that China is building a high-speed rail at the same time, and it is really terrible to build a low-cost aviation logistics network!" Ichiro Sakai decided to uncover the secrets of this low-cost airline, and when he learned that Singapore Airlines was going to recruit a large number of ground handlers, he decided to sneak in.

Porter is a good job, you can get first-hand information about logistics, you have a lot of contact with people, and the most important thing is not to be obtrusive. The only trouble is that he is a little tired, but Ichiro Sakai feels that his body is stronger than that of ordinary migrant workers, and he will definitely be able to hold on.

After waiting patiently for a day, Ichiro Sakai got his wish and became an employee of SIA Cargo, and was immediately sent to the cargo terminal to start work immediately. It was only when he arrived at the cargo station that he was shocked to find that things were a bit beyond his imagination - there were thousands of people in a small cargo station.

The foreman who led the team spoke rudely, grabbed the electric horn and stood on the carriage at every turn, scolding, asking his subordinates to hurry up and hurry up, "The standard time for loading 100 tons of cargo is 10 hours, and the standard time for loading it in the cabin is 90 minutes."

The company is very time-sensitive, and there is a bonus for every minute of advance. If you want to make more money, you have to hurry up. Speed up and we can double our salary! ”

Rapid companies along the coast have begun to use robot technology to sort parcels, but SIA and its supporting express delivery companies have not yet been able to build such a tall logistics system, and they can only rely on more manpower to improve transportation efficiency.

The most troublesome thing is that due to the peculiarities of air transportation, all scattered packages must be loaded into containers in advance. However, there is a big difference between air and railway and road container transportation, and it has special requirements for the stacking of goods, otherwise it will be troublesome if the center of gravity of the plane is unstable.

This loading process has special safety standards, requires specialized personnel to complete, and is specially inspected. This loading and finishing work is not done by the courier company, but by the airport's certified ground handlers.

However, in order to improve efficiency, Zhou Qingfeng asked the airport to hire an additional group of porters, just to assist the ground staff of professional loading every day, save a few hours of time as much as possible, and improve the overall air transportation efficiency.

And Ichiro Sakai applied for this kind of hard-working porter, he originally thought that his job was to drive a forklift to move, and at worst it was also a trailer to move, who knew that it was carried by hand. This is really direct contact with logistics information, but it's too tiring!

It took the morning to sort out the two air containers, and the truck finally pulled the containers away and sent them to the plane. Ichiro Sakai thought that he could finally rest for a while, but he didn't know that a large number of goods were immediately sent over.

Parcels, parcels, parcels like mountains!

Ichiro Sakai quickly picked up a few mouthfuls of food in the cafeteria, and was rushed by the foreman of the cargo station to unload the goods. The foreman's electric horn shouted, "Hurry, hurry, those idiots from the courier won't be loaded, and we'll have to unload it again!" ”

Ichiro Sakai is usually accustomed to eating slowly and methodically, and fills his stomach elegantly and calmly. But the foreman's urging forced him to work without eating half a bowl of rice. It was carried with bare hands, and every package was exhausting.

"What the hell is the cargo there?" Ichiro Sakai was holding a large box and walked from one container to another, panting from exhaustion.

"The cantaloupe and grapes in Turpan are very popular with the fruits of Xinjiang. Now the freight rate is low, and the sales volume has skyrocketed. An old porter who looked at fifty or sixty also walked past Ichiro Sakai with a box of packages and answered the latter's question casually.

The foreman was still shouting irritably next to him, "Take it lightly, if there is a loss in the transportation process, the bonus will be deducted." ”

In the afternoon, the work efficiency was higher, and Ichiro Sakai's team got three containers. Listening to the rumbling of the truck, the foreman finally shouted, "Change the group to work, and the others will go to dinner." ”

Oops...... I'm so tired!

When he arrived at the cafeteria, Ichiro Sakai found that he had been working all day but had not had time to find out any information, and had been moving around all day. He was tired and had no appetite, and felt that his gym workout was not suitable for this kind of boring pure manual labor.

"How does our company manage to ship goods at a low price?" Before the cafeteria table, Ichiro Sakai asked the porters of the same group. This is how information is often obtained by accident.

"Our company has a lot of planes." Some people answered the question.

"Maybe it's because there are so many planes and a lot of traffic that keeps costs down." This is still the answer to the question.

"I heard that the company has to transport tens of thousands of tons of goods every day, and it is a large enterprise supported by the central government. My relative's beef and mutton have been selling very well lately, and the sales in one day are worth a month. The family was too busy to do it, and they had to hire two people. ”

"The central government is really a good enterprise this time, it is said that the city of Wuhan to build a logistics industrial park, to train express companies to get the safety qualification of air freight, to double the current freight efficiency. That's a good thing! ”

Small talk at the dinner table is like that, and what is said is not necessarily the first thing to talk about. Ichiro Sakai wanted to know how SIA managed to deliver low-cost freight, but the information he got was a microcosm of the explosive economic growth of the entire Northwest because of SIA's logistics efforts.

Eating only half a bowl of rice without taste, Ichiro Sakai is also thinking about what key factors are hidden behind this situation.

But the foreman suddenly rushed into the canteen with a loudspeaker and shouted: "The warehouse is bursting, the rabbit cubs in the express delivery are bursting." Everyone, stop eating, hurry up and help load the car!

Thousands of families in the northwest finally have the opportunity to make a fortune, and countless old and young people in Xinjiang are waiting for us to send all the packages out on time. We can't smash our own signboards, and we must not hold back at this time! ”

As soon as the foreman shouted, a bunch of porters in the canteen hurriedly ran out. Ichiro Sakai saw that the foreman was staring at him, and said weakly: "I have only eaten half a bowl of rice, and the chicken legs have not been gnawed." ”

"Everyone else has finished eating, so you are slow. Why don't you look like one of our gentlemen in the northwest? "The foreman's cursing look is particularly terrifying.

Ichiro Sakai had no choice but to give up his share of dinner and go to work hungry. There are more and more goods in the cargo station, trucks are constantly transporting packages, and the turnover of e-commerce is increasing rapidly.

Tired, ......, really tired!

Ichiro Sakai dragged his tired body back to the company dormitory in the middle of the night, and compared with other workers who received double bonuses, he felt a little hypoglycemic. In the middle of the night, when everyone was asleep, he suddenly sat up nervously and waved his hands .......

"Don't drive, don't drive, nutrition can't keep up."
