Chapter 122: Opening of Beijing Express Station
"Okay, then I'll tell Boss Gu what I need." Master Meng said with a smile.
Gu Xiaoyou listened with bright eyes and sighed in his heart that Master Meng is really a great treasure.
"According to the arrangement you said, I will give you the key to the workshop next door, as well as the banknote."
Gu Xiaoyou happily spent money, as long as the matter can be completed, her business can reach a higher level.
"A villain will never disobey the boss's instructions." Master Meng took the keys and banknotes, bowed respectfully, turned around and left.
Within three days, the workshop next door opened under the leadership of Master Meng.
Gu Xiaoyou went for an inspection and found that the people Master Meng hired were very reliable and their work was meticulous and sincere.
The mulberry paper workshop has begun to prepare. Although it has not officially started yet, Gu Xiaoyou is already half relieved.
During the preparation period for the mulberry paper workshop, preparations for the Liangliang Express Station’s Beijing terminal were completed.
Inside the courier station.
Gu Xiaoyou walked from the courtyard to the front yard, from checking the horses to the shelves, and said with satisfaction: "You are really getting better and better. In just a few days, you have prepared the express delivery station."
"Thank you for the compliment, boss." Zhu Cheng said sheepishly: "I brought the accountant here too, and I will keep him in the capital this time to do piecework and management. Do you think that's okay?"
"Okay, you arranged it well." Gu Xiaoyou said happily, which saved her the trouble of recruiting more people.
"There are also grooms. I have also recruited some grooms. In addition to those from Qingcheng County, I also recruited a few in the capital, and they all signed contracts." Zhu Cheng introduced the people he recruited to Gu Xiaoyou one by one.
"Very good, we can open tomorrow." She didn't expect Zhu Cheng to be so reliable in doing things. She basically didn't worry about anything except paying for it.
"Okay." Zhu Cheng responded happily.
At midnight the next day, Zhu Cheng hung up the plaque of Liangliang Express Station and posted the notice on both sides of the gate.
Seeing that he was ready, Gu Xiaoyou took the flint and lit the firecrackers.
With a bustling sound, Liangliang Express Station Beijing Main Station officially opened.
"Hello everyone, today is the opening day of the express delivery station. Just like the opening of the paper store, there will be discounts for the first three days." Gu Xiaoyou said loudly.
The word "discount" is so attractive that customers who were originally buying paper on the street immediately gathered around the door of the express delivery station.
"What does the express station do?"
"You are really ignorant. The courier station is a place for delivering and sending letters, which is more suitable than the escort agency."
"Yes, my relatives out of town have sent me express delivery twice."
"What kind of discount is this?"
There were mixed voices from the guests, and Zhu Chengliang said in a loud voice: "The prices and routes of our express delivery station are posted at the door, and the discounts for the first three days are also written on it. Please check it yourself."
The guests immediately gathered around the announcement and talked while reading: "A piece of goods is now fifty cents."
"Sending a letter only costs three cents, which is much cheaper than before."
"The time is short, I just have something to give."
The guests had a lively discussion for a while. Those who wanted to buy paper continued to buy paper. Those who needed express delivery asked a few questions and were ready to go to the express delivery station to send things.
A lot of goods had accumulated that afternoon, and Zhu Cheng arranged the departure of the trucks at the express station in an orderly manner.
Gu Xiaoyou didn't do much to help, and the goods were delivered smoothly on the first day.
Liangliang Express Station started operating smoothly. Zhu Cheng took care of it for ten days and personally taught the accountant.
The next day, in the Youlian paper shop.
Zhu Cheng found Gu Xiaoyou and bowed: "Boss Gu, the express station is stable, it's time for me to return to Qingcheng County."
"So soon?" Gu Xiaoyou said in surprise: "How many more days will you stay?"
"No, I don't trust the shops in Qingcheng County." Zhu Cheng said with a smile.
"Well, I won't keep you any longer. When are you going to leave?"
"We will set off in the afternoon." Zhu Cheng replied.
"Ah, it's so urgent. Then I'll go buy some specialties. You wait for me here."
Gu Xiaoyou said something, left Zhu Cheng to dry in the paper shop, and ran away in a hurry.
Zhou shook her head and said with a helpless smile: "This girl is still so impatient."
Zhu Cheng smiled and didn't answer. After a long while, he said hesitantly: "Boss Zhou, I'm leaving. You have to pay attention to your health."
"Well, you too." Zhou said softly.
Zhu Cheng smiled shyly and said softly: "Then can I come see you when I have time?"
"Of course, Xiaoyou and I welcome you." Zhou said with a natural expression.
When Zhu Cheng heard this, his eyes darkened: "Yeah."
Zhou didn't know why Zhu Cheng suddenly became depressed. Just as he was about to say something, Zhu Cheng suddenly smiled and said, "Let me help you clean up the shop."
After saying this, Zhu Cheng immediately picked up the broom behind the counter and started sweeping the store.
"No need, the boy is here to help."
"It's okay, I can't sit still."
Zhou couldn't persuade Zhu Cheng, but a guest happened to come, so he entertained the guests. Zhu Cheng swept the floor and glanced at Zhou from time to time.
Just as Zhu Cheng was cleaning the paper shop, Gu Xiaoyou returned to the store carrying large and small bags.
"Zhu Cheng, take all these things back."
"So much, you spend too much money." Zhu Cheng said in surprise, did Boss Gu buy everything in the capital?
"It's not for you alone. This one is for Yang He, this one is for his mother, and this one is for Sister Zheng..."
Gu Xiaoyou wrote his name on the packaging of each item and moved it to the car with Zhu Cheng and Zhou.
After everything was put away, Zhu Cheng glanced at the sky: "The time has come, I should leave."
With that said, he quickly got on his horse and said, "Boss Gu, Boss Zhou, see you soon."
"Goodbye, stay safe."
Zhu Cheng smiled like a deer, raised the whip in his hand, and shouted loudly: "Drive!"
The horse galloped, and Gu Xiaoyou waved to him and reluctantly shouted: "Be careful on the road, and say hello to everyone for me."
"I know." Zhu Cheng waved his hands without knowing it, and the carriage sped away.
After a long while, Gu Xiaoyou looked away and said to Zhou, "Let's go back."
"Yeah." Mrs. Zhou took one last look at the place where the carriage disappeared, and returned to the store with Gu Xiaoyou.
Three days later, inside the Youlian paper shop.
Gu Xiaoyou was hiding in the backyard playing with his cell phone when Master Meng hurried into the backyard.
"Boss Gu, the mulberry paper has been created!"
"Really, take me to see it quickly." Gu Xiaoyou said happily, hid the phone in his purse, and quickly followed Master Meng to the workshop.
When they arrived at the workshop, Master Meng showed the finished mulberry paper to Gu Xiaoyou.
"You see, there are two types of mulberry paper. One is white and slightly soft, and the other is brown and tough."
