On December 13, Hong Yanwu and the others finally encountered their first setback since arriving in Huacheng.
The key is because it is my first time and I have no experience.
They just called the vehicle early in the morning and sent the goods to Huacheng Railway Station for consignment.
Unexpectedly, the lack of preparation resulted in a complete joke.
The check-in station at Ganrenqingjia Railway Station only handles less-than-truckload business for passenger luggage.
They have so many goods, if you want to do container transportation, you have to go to "Huacheng South Station" or "Huacheng West Station".
Because only these two railway stations have container offices.
But even if they went to Huacheng West Station right away, they couldn't figure it out at all.
Not to mention the chaos here due to the huge crowds of people and goods, the key points are that there are no regulations marked everywhere, and they also have a language barrier with the locals.
No matter who they asked, they would not understand or speak clearly. In the end, they would wave their hands impatiently and say, "Go, go, go."
Fortunately, there were many of them, so they went to search separately. After much trouble, they finally found the office where the business was handled.
But the people here were also indifferent. After hearing their request, the clerk who received them remained silent and didn't speak at all. He just opened the drawer and took out a cigarette to light for himself.
Everyone looked at it again, good guys, there were whole boxes, half boxes, and scattered cigarettes in the drawer, which added up to half the drawer.
That's when I realized what this guy meant.
Logically speaking, in fact, Hong Yanwu and the others should not make this mistake. They are from the capital and are messing around. How can they not understand this?
The problem is, isn't the atmosphere in Huacheng and Beijing very different? Money seems to be more useful than power here.
They have been so busy these days, plus they were anxious all morning, which led to this careless mistake.
But fortunately, it is not too late for them to wake up now, because the cigarettes they carry are "Marlboros" bought in Huacheng.
The foreign smoke is very common in this area. Whenever you see it, the hens will crow early.
No, just two Marlboros from a box were thrown directly into the drawer. The clerk's language function was restored, and he explained the business process to them in great detail.
But this one is even more troublesome because the specific procedures are quite complicated.
First of all, you need to apply in advance with a letter of introduction and product invoice.
Hong Yanwu’s cargo required at least two three-ton wagons, but the actual loading capacity was only four tons in total.
After applying for approval, the next day the package will be inspected, the shipping form and label will be filled in, the iron frame will be put on, and the package will be weighed by a forklift.
The goods cannot be loaded and shipped until the weigher fills out the approved weight and pays the money.
So there is no other way. The goods shipped today can only be stored in the warehouse of the station for money, and Hong Yanwu has to go and run the invoice first.
As for formal invoices, the self-employed people in "Gaodi Street" will definitely not be able to issue them.
But fortunately, Hong Yanwu and the others are not a public entity. They have a strict financial system and must rely on this thing to record and reconcile accounts.
He asked the self-employed to help him get a few expired invoices from state-owned wholesalers. After getting them, he changed them himself, and he was able to cope with it.
It was just a trip to get the invoice, and I just handed in the application, but it was still far from loading and shipping.
Since Hong Yanwu received two full boxes of "Marlboro" this time, the clerk gave them a "kind-hearted" reminder.
"You have to be prepared in your mind. It will not be easy for you to do this. If nothing else, the government's things can't be transported. How can you self-employed people take care of it? Just when will the plan be approved? I’m not sure I can get on the bus.”
When "Dabao" heard these words, the flesh on his face almost turned to his forehead.
He was tired and annoyed from the hard work in the past two days. He was already angry and started to talk.
"What's wrong with being self-employed? We also have a state-approved business license and pay for freight. Why can't we get it done? You can't be so difficult on purpose!"
Of course the clerk didn’t like hearing it.
"How are you talking? Who is making things difficult for you? What can I do if the carriage is tight? Is the country's affairs more important or your personal affairs? Besides, even if I want to grant it to you, I don't have the power. What's wrong with the boss? Say, let’s do it.”
"Dabao" wanted to say more, but Hong Yanwu glared at him in time.
Then he apologized to the clerk and said that "Dabao" was a rough guy, so don't be as knowledgeable as this guy.
I also had to invite the clerks and all their colleagues in the office to dinner after work, so as to relax the atmosphere.
After going out, "Dabao" had calmed down and knew that he almost messed up the matter.
So he apologized to Hong Yanwu a little bit angrily, and said that he would pay for the treat himself, lest the clerk really deliberately made things difficult for them and couldn't deliver the goods.
Unexpectedly, Hong Yanwu smiled.
"Just control your temper in the future, and don't think too much. That little clerk doesn't have that much power."
"Actually, he didn't say this just to make things difficult for others. I think he mostly wanted to use it as a reason to gain benefits. Maybe it was the intention of their leader."
"You have no experience in dealing with officials. They are very hypocritical in everything they do. Just watch this meal and see whether their leaders will go or not."
What happened next was exactly as Hong Yanwu said. The banquet was held at the "Beiyuan Restaurant" that day. Not only everyone from the office came to eat and drink, but also the section chief responsible for approving the plan.
Hong Yanwu was willing to spend money, and the Moutai he brought also worked.
During the dinner, everyone had a lively chat and drank several bottles. When they left the table, they had become "friends" every time.
Hong Yanwu specially brought two bottles of Maotai and two cigarettes to the section chief, and also stuffed 200 yuan into his pocket behind his back.
After one day, on December 16, the plan was approved quickly.
As long as the goods pass the customs inspection and the weight is checked, the goods can be loaded immediately and shipped that night.
But at this time, he still couldn't be at ease. Hong Yanwu, who knew the essentials, gave the clerk another cigarette and asked him to introduce him to the head of the security inspection.
As a result, I was treated to another meal at noon and gave Totou two cigarettes and one hundred yuan. Just passed this final level.
Originally, "Dabao" was secretly complaining. He felt that this gift was unnecessary. He already had a plan for the car, so what should he be afraid of?
But when it came time for the inspection in the afternoon, he also knew the necessity.
For example, a public unit that was inspected at the same time as them was tormented by two safety inspectors.
They had to open all the sacks to see if there were any contraband items such as electronic watches, calculators, and nylon cloth.
In the large empty field, each one must be opened, and then the sacks and straw ropes here must be bought. The bags must be replaced and re-sewed, and the ropes must be tied before they can be put into the warehouse.
Not only did they almost kill several people in this public unit, but the prices of sacks and ropes were also not that expensive.
Two yuan for a sack and fifty cents for a straw rope.
After all, the packaging fee alone will cost 200 yuan.
Obviously, this is a three-pointer from Minkah.
In comparison, Hong Yanwu's goods were released smoothly.
The safety inspector who checked them was holding the cigarette that Hong Yanwu had just given to the boss at noon.
I only opened a few packages for a symbolic look, and then got on the forklift to weigh them.
The most important thing is that after paying the freight, special care will be taken during loading.
Workers can follow Hong Yanwu's request and pile important goods into the container first, with worthless fur collars on the outside.
In this case, although you will inevitably be robbed layer by layer along the way, the losses can be minimized.
Think about it, isn’t this gift worth it?
So after the big guy finally came out, "Dabao" could only express his feelings with a wry smile.
"Damn it, one ton of goods costs three cents per kilometer, and the freight for two wagons only cost more than four hundred yuan in total. But we spent a thousand dollars just feeding these bastards. But then again, we have to pay Without them, we would have wasted money and lost a lot of money. I really don’t know whether to scold them or thank them.”
Hong Yanwu could only sigh.
"Why this happens is very clear. In the animal world, this is called 'more wolves and less meat'. In human society, it is called 'short resources'."
"But compared with carnivores, people are more open-minded. They will never bite just for a bite of food, tearing the blood. It's life and death. We are very civilized, and we don't use money or power to eat. Let's deal with this kind of thing. In terms of money, everyone benefits.
"This is the trend now. If you don't believe in evil and are not used to their problems, you will definitely not be able to get anything done. What options do we people have? Either you don't follow the rules and go through the back door, or you have to endure 'press Zhang is making things difficult."
"To tell you what I really think, this **** thing should have been punished a long time ago! But under the current circumstances, this is also the rule, and it can leave us a way. What I fear most is that if this group of people is really punished, If you don’t follow the proper rules later, it means there are no rules at all.”
"Think about it, are there any masters who are more grandsons than these people in reality? For example, he doesn't accept gifts, just to save himself worries. He only speaks in official terms every day, and uses rules and regulations to find fault with you. , He didn’t care about your life or death. In the end, he was known as honest, but everything about you was delayed.”
"In order to drain all the money out of your pocket, he made countless excuses to make things difficult to handle. It wasn't until the conditions gradually increased that you couldn't afford it and you wanted to give up, then he changed his mind and said he could I'll give you a hard chop."
"Of course, the worst thing you can do is beg him. He says he wants to help, but in fact he doesn't help at all and just lets things go. If things go wrong and he says he tried his best, you will owe him a favor. If things come to pass, then he will naturally seek benefits from you."
After hearing this, everyone’s heart skipped a beat. They really hadn’t thought about these issues.
Hong Yan’s example of martial arts is worse than a gangster.
If you want to talk about your inner feelings, I’m afraid you only have two words to express them.
Fuck it!
