Chapter 1972 1847 Communication with Master Zhang
"In our industry, the charging standard for the distance to Central Street is ten yuan. Do you think it is appropriate?"
Simply estimate the specific kilometers, and then the driver, Master Zhang, also gave his own charging standards. Although their industry does not seem to be scaled up and standardized, the drivers also have their own charging standards.
If there are no orders, it is okay to move the charging standard downwards slightly, but no one will bring the range too low, because to a certain extent, this method is destroying the market.
Almost everyone follows the rules tacitly.
"Okay, then I'll pay you the money first. Excuse me, master. Just send me to the community and park the car in the garage."
He nodded clearly. Because he had never used it before, he was not sure whether the other party's charge of 10 yuan was appropriate. However, in Gu Cheng's own opinion, the 10 yuan charge was not that high.
Within your own value range.
Compared with the price you may have to pay for taking the risk, spending 10 yuan does not seem like much to consider.
After talking about the price, Master Zhang looked at Gu Cheng uneasily and waited for the other party's response. To be honest, this was his first order today. If the other party thought the price was too expensive, he could adjust it down by two or three yuan.
Even if you grit your teeth and get it for $7, you can still get it.
It is better to drive alone than not to drive alone. I usually work as a truck driver, but sometimes I am more free when I don’t have to run long distances. In this free time, I can work part-time as a substitute driver.
Give yourself more income.
Unexpectedly, the customer I met today was extremely generous. He had no intention of entangled or bargaining with me. He even paid the fee directly before accepting the order and accepted the 10 yuan handed over by him.
After the color ultrasound, the driver went to the back first very attentively, opened the door, and let Gu Cheng sit firmly before he went to the front driver's seat.
"Sir, please fasten your seat belt. I'm getting ready to go. This is a good car. I've seen this car at a car show before. The price is quite expensive. You should have a good driving experience when driving it.
Bar."
Perhaps because he was in a good mood, Master Zhang also showed a particularly kind side. While communicating with Gu Cheng, he caressed the steering wheel with some admiration.
Since I am a driver, I must have studied and understood cars on a daily basis, and I can even speak clearly about the configuration of the car. I have to say that Gu Cheng’s car is still a first-class product in the eyes of the driver.
Not only is the grade superb, but the functions and configurations are also very superior.
"Ah, yes, it drives well. I have bought it for a while. I usually drive it less frequently and the mileage has not exceeded 10,000."
Although Gu Cheng usually maintains a taciturn character, the main reason is that he is not very good at communicating with others. However, if someone chats with him and can provide a topic, he can also be very kind.
"This car is really nice. Sir, I think driving this car means you have a lot of wealth and strength. I don't know what industry you are in."
Perhaps in order to make the next trip less boring, or perhaps to leave a good impression on Gu Cheng, both parties can keep a phone number when the order is completed, which will also develop a potential customer for themselves.
So follow what Master Zhang just said and continue to extend it.
"Me, I'm just so-so. I'm in the wine sales industry."
Gu Cheng has always disliked showing his identity as a writer in front of others. It's not that he finds this profession a bit difficult to talk about, but he doesn't enjoy the way others treat him with different perceptions and attitudes. He prefers to put both parties on the same level.
communicate on.
He could predict that if he opened his mouth and said that he was a driver in the writing industry, he would definitely show a strong interest in him and talk to him endlessly about interesting things about the literary world and the writers he knew about. He would even talk to him.
Ask him what kind of works Gu Cheng has written.
Gu Cheng has always been tired of this way of coping. It would be better to just make up a profession. Furthermore, he is not learning from others. It is the work of his good friend Shang Yan. If the other party continues to talk in depth,
, you can also cope with nature.
On the other hand, the reason may be that the relationship between the two parties is still shallow. There is a big reason. There is no need to brag about how great you are and how powerful you are in front of a person you just met. He is not like this through this kind of thing.
A way to find people with confidence and pride.
"Alcohol sales? That's pretty good. The development prospects of this industry are relatively good now. I don't usually like to drink, but I heard that the bosses in this industry are generally very powerful."
Master Zhang continued to maintain a congratulatory and flattering attitude. This attitude did not seem inappropriate. After all, he was in the service industry and dealt with customers well. Following what the customers said was an essential skill.
"It's not easy to do, and it's quite hard sometimes. But you still have to work hard without a master. Do you drive a truck to other places on weekdays more?"
Chats always come and go. Now that the other party has opened the conversation, Gu Cheng will naturally follow the other party's words and continue to communicate. At least during the rest of the journey, it will not be too boring.
"Well, it's hard to make money. How can there be an easy industry? It's true that we go to other places a lot. Sometimes we have to drive to other places when we go out. After driving for a few days and nights, we have a few days of rest after returning.
But I can’t be idle, so I got a part-time job as a driver or something, so I can earn more. If I don’t earn more now, I might have less trouble when my children need it.”
The hardships and sorrows of a middle-aged man are basically just these few things, but it can be seen that he is still enjoying it at least. When talking about children, you can obviously see the relief and happiness on the other person's face.
look.
Maybe they got to the point where they were proud of themselves. The master didn't even wait for Gu Cheng to continue asking before he started to share the basic situation of his family.
According to what the other party said, he has two sons at home, and both sons are probably in their teens. They are currently studying. It can be heard that their academic performance should be good. This also makes the master's struggle and hard work worth it.
