The private room on the second floor is as warm as spring.

In addition to the heating provided collectively by the row of retail outlets in the teahouse, there is also an exquisite and beautiful charcoal stove burning on the inside of the tea table, which is used for making tea in winter. The door of the stove is usually closed, and the stove mouth is not open, when guests come. Open the furnace door and the furnace mouth, and the fire will happily jump out from the furnace mouth to lick the bottom of the copper pot. It takes only 10 minutes at most to boil a pot of water.Moreover, the charcoal stove itself and the smoke exhaust pipe erected straight up to the roof and extending out of the window can also emit heat for heating.

Feng Pingyao, who was wearing a dark brown Tang suit embroidered with clouds and satin, calmly brewed a pot of Dahongpao, put it on the table without making tea, and said indifferently: "Just flush the water after drinking, and you can drink for three hours." Bubble."

After finishing speaking, Feng Pingyao turned and walked out.

The tea drinkers who have long been accustomed to this will naturally not have the slightest complaint. Qian Ming picked up the teapot and poured tea for Su Chunfeng and Zhao Shangang, and said at the same time: "Since I have accompanied Mr. Zhao here to drink tea a few times, I have really tasted some tea. Mr. Feng washes the tea twice, turns the bottom and steams the tea, which has an indescribable flavor."

Zhao Shangang joked: "If Teacher Qian makes the tea again, the taste will be even more different..."

Su Chunfeng smiled and nodded.

After getting to know Su Chunfeng a few years ago, Qian Ming, who was enlightened by his advice three or two times, became more and more solid in his cultivation base. Su Chunfeng spurred and reminded, devoted himself to practice and broke through, and entered the late stage of pure body in one fell swoop a year ago.Although his physical condition is bad now, his temperament and state of mind are different from those in the past.For example, when he sits with a hero like Zhao Shangang and pours tea and water, he no longer feels stiff and a little unwilling in his heart like before. Tea and water are just poured at will, and there is no so-called distinction between high and low status.

Not to mention embarrassment and embarrassment.

Don't underestimate such trivial things as usual, as if they are not worth mentioning. After really contacting people like Zhao Shangang too much, it is inevitable for most people to do such small things like pouring tea and water under such circumstances. There will be a feeling of being inferior to others-not that Zhao Shangang is too self-confident, but because of his natural domineering.

Zhao Shangang said: "Chunfeng, Mr. Chen Yufang and Mr. Chen mentioned on the phone two days ago that Vantone Logistics plans to set up a courier company. Is there such a thing?"

"Yes." Su Chunfeng nodded.

Zhao Shangang thought about it and said: "To be honest, I had a plan last year to start a freight company, and to develop logistics services to provincial capitals and municipalities across the country with the provincial capital city as the center. Because when I went to the city for business last year, I found that As the national railway hub area, the freight industry is much more prosperous than Pingyang City, and the benefits are relatively higher, so I was moved. This time, when Mr. Chen talked about the express delivery business, I thought that since it is similar to the logistics line , how about our company taking a stake and participating in the cooperation? Don’t get me wrong, I mean, I set up a separate logistics line for freight, and then the development of Vantone’s express business can overlap with my side. In this case Our two companies can integrate the two into one in the layout of outlets, saving rent and employee expenses on a large scale."

Su Chunfeng thought for a while, and said: "The goal of the express company is nationwide, and the goal is not only the provincial capitals and municipalities, but the company's outlets are laid in cities, counties and districts across the country."

"In the early days, Wantong's express company couldn't develop like that at the beginning, not to mention the huge cost, and the outlets couldn't achieve full coverage so early." Zhao Shangang seldom refuted Su Chunfeng's idea, and said seriously: "One step at a time Come on, when the time comes, the two of us will be stabilized before merging, it doesn’t matter who annexes the other, anyway, we are all on our own...Of course, it would be best if we join hands now.”

Su Chunfeng frowned slightly, concentrating on his brows. Zhao Shangang's proposal really moved him. Under the current social and economic development environment, if express companies only focus on small parcels and mail as their main service, it is really difficult to get profits. The logistics overlap of large-scale freight can save costs and expenses, so as to make up for the lack of revenue in this area.But if we cooperate with Zhao Shangang, we have to consider Zhao Shangang's identity and the path he has taken, whether he will be implicated in the future if something happens.If he hadn't been concerned about these things, Su Chunfeng would not have resolutely persuaded his father to exchange the shares of the two companies with Zhao Shangang, so that Zhao Shangang withdrew from Wantong Logistics.

"Chunfeng..." Qian Ming's expression showed a hint of solicitation.

Su Chunfeng nodded, indicating that he could speak.

Qian Ming said earnestly: "I don't know if you have any knowledge of the current national freight industry, but from what Mr. Zhao and I know about this industry, express delivery should be an upgraded version of the logistics line. Most of the current In fact, the special line transportation company mainly accepts less-than-truckload freight. The so-called less-than-truckload is a small package. Because the consignment is small and fragmented, it is called less-than-truckload. It is trivial but extremely profitable. At present, there is a very large An important point that cannot be ignored is...the degree of competition is extremely high, especially in big cities, there is vicious competition, this kind of vicious competition does not refer to freight prices, but means of violence."

"Huh?" Su Chunfeng looked puzzled, he really didn't know much about this.

Qian Ming glanced at Zhao Shangang, and then continued: "At present, several large logistics companies in the country, including most small logistics companies, have one thing in common that cannot be ignored."

"what?"

"Northeast Gang!" Qian Ming explained without waiting for Su Chunfeng to continue asking, "I dare not say that in all parts of the country, at least [-]% to [-]%, especially in big cities, almost all the freight industry is from the Northeast. It is a large dedicated line transportation company... In fact, my country's freight industry is in the early stage of rapid development, there are no industry regulations, this industry has huge profits, and vicious competition with violence as the main method is common."

Su Chunfeng frowned and looked at Zhao Shangang, and said, "Are you sure?"

"Yes." Zhao Shan just took a sip of tea and said, "After I had this idea last year, I went to the city with Mr. Qian, and also went to the capital, sea, Tianjin and Hong Kong, and Guangdong and Hai provinces. I also got in touch with people from several branches of freight line companies that have developed in our Pingyang City."

Su Chunfeng nodded, feeling deeply about the saying that the great man once taught, "Without investigation, there is no right to speak."

It seems that this kind of dirty and dirty method in private should not be considered by a serious businessman, but if you think about it carefully, Vantone Logistics has a nationwide distribution of express companies, not to mention the so-called Northeast gang, just to say The head snakes in this industry everywhere are enough to cause headaches-every day, every place, local old-fashioned freight companies arrange people to come to your branch to find fault, provoke, make trouble, or stumble behind your back, your business is still going on. How to do it?

This is an industry that is in its infancy but has begun to develop rapidly, and there are no industry regulations, and the country does not have a sound legal system in this regard.

Su Chunfeng suddenly felt like retreating.

Vantone Logistics is very good now, why bother to take a huge risk and invest hundreds of millions or even more in some kind of express company?People, contentment and happiness...

But as soon as this thought appeared, Su Chunfeng resolutely threw it away.Even if I want to withdraw, my father and aunt will not agree. The initial draft plan has been released, and all shareholders of the company have been notified. There will be a meeting to discuss the establishment of a courier company on the twelfth of the first lunar month. At this time, I retreated and said no. done?

Are you kidding me?

What's more, development is the last word!

In this era of economic boom, if you stand still, you will go backwards and you will be eliminated!

Seeing Su Chunfeng's hesitant contemplation, Qian Ming said in a tentative tone, Xiaoyi: "In this regard, Mr. Zhao and the people in our company are suitable to open the way..."

Su Chunfeng didn't respond, just pondered.

Zhao Shangang said: "No shares, it's just that the two companies have reached a cooperation agreement. If something happens, the express company of Vantone Logistics will be clean."

Su Chunfeng narrowed his eyes, took a small sip of tea from a teacup, and said casually, "A strong dragon doesn't overwhelm a snake, not to mention running around to put out fires, can you do it?"

Zhao Shangang laughed and said, "It's not that the dragon crosses the river..."

Su Chunfeng breathed out, tapped the table with his right finger lightly, and said lightly: "On the morning of the twelfth day of the first lunar month, Vantone Logistics held a shareholder meeting to discuss the establishment of an express company. I will say hello to my father and my aunt. If you want to participate, Mr. Yan and Mr. Xu would also like you to participate. As for directly investing in shares or operating in the name of cooperation between the two companies, you can negotiate with them, and I will not participate."

This is already tantamount to permission.

Just as Zhao Shan nodded, he breathed a sigh of relief—except for Su Chunfeng, he had never felt a huge and irresistible pressure in front of anyone, it was an indescribable pressure!

The three chatted for a while, and after drinking the tea, they got up and left.

Su Chunfeng opened the curtain first and walked out of the private room.

The outer hall was as quiet as before, and it was a little deserted, but at the tea table near the window in the northwest corner, I don’t know when a strange tea guest sat down. Unbearable wooden sticks—the tea guest sat with his back facing Su Chunfeng and the others in the private room, with ragged clothes and unkempt hair.

In any other food-related store, I am afraid that such an old beggar would not be allowed to enter.

But Jinming Tea House is different.

Because the boss is different from ordinary people, and the old beggar is also extraordinary.

When Su Chunfeng walked to the stairs, like any ordinary person, he turned around curiously and walked over, stood in front of the old beggar, looked down, smiled and said: "Master, you have a good day. "
