my passenger is sleepy

Si Xiaoqi's excitement came up, and he grabbed Xiao Chen's hand and babbled non-stop, the more he talked, the happier he became, so he didn't notice that Xiao Chen's responses became less and less, and his breathing became more and more rapid.

Si Xiaoqi's drinking capacity is negligible, so he used tea as an excuse to drive all night instead of wine. Anyway, he "accompanied" Xiao Chen, so he simply pretended to be cowardly all the way to the end of the dinner.Of course, he would not naively believe that the drunken conversation on the drinking table could be regarded as a business contract, so he kept asking Xiao Chen about Shang Yan's family background and parents' situation.Xiao Chen had been drinking with Shang Yan all night, he didn't eat much food, but almost half a catty of liquor went down, now he had a headache, a stomachache, and he was so confused that he didn't have the energy to answer Si Xiaoqi's question.

"Hey Xiao Chen, how much do you think Shang Yan's family can ship each time?"

Xiao Chen moved impatiently in the passenger seat and ignored Si Xiaoqi.Si Xiaoqi stared at the road ahead, turned his face slightly and asked, "Ah, I'm asking you."

"do not know."

"I don't know..." Si Xiaoqi smacked his lips regretfully, glanced at Xiao Chen again, and finally realized that Xiao Chen's state was not right.Ask, "How are you? Are you feeling bad? I see you drink a lot."

"It's okay," Xiao Chen answered as simply as possible, his face was facing the direction of the car window, avoiding Si Xiaoqi's sight, and his brows were tightly knit together.

Si Xiaoqi probably realized that Xiao Chen was reluctant to speak, so he finally closed his mouth. Xiao Chen let out a long breath, tried hard to suppress the feeling of stomachache and curled up his body.

The road conditions were good at night, and Si Xiaoqi drove home in less than 10 minutes.As soon as the door was opened, Xiao Chen shook off Si Xiaoqi's hand and went straight to the bathroom. When Si Xiaoqi put down the key in his hand, locked the door and chased to the bathroom door, Xiao Chen had already slammed the door and locked it.

"Xiao Chen?" Si Xiaoqi knocked on the door outside, "Open the door, what's wrong with you?"

Xiao Chen didn't speak, but Si Xiaoqi heard the sound of rushing water.

"Maomao, open the door." Si Xiaoqi was a little anxious, and turned the doorknob vigorously, but the door didn't move at all.

"Honey, open the door, let me in." Si Xiaoqi thumped on the door, the sound of water inside became louder, the sound of vomiting and Xiao Chen's coughing could be faintly heard.The coughing sound seemed to be sprayed directly from the lungs, and every sound had a heart-piercing feeling.

It was only then that Si Xiaoqi calmed down from the initial excitement.He knew that Xiao Chen's drinking capacity was better than his own, so Xiao Chen didn't raise any objections when he stood up to block the wine for himself at the wine table.In Si Xiaoqi's view, instead of being able to force himself down and make Xiao Chen struggle to drag him back, it's better to simply admit his weakness and be honestly a "accompanying drinker" and don't embarrass his wife and cause trouble.

However, now that he was standing outside the door, listening to the violent coughing and rushing water coming from inside, Si Xiaoqi's heart twisted into a ball.This is the first time he has truly experienced what it means to be distressed. It is a sharp tingling sensation, which spreads rapidly from a certain point under his left rib, so fast and severe that he can only take small mouthfuls of pain. Panting, a layer of cold sweat broke out on the palms of your hands.

Before he had time to blame himself and regret, he was seized by the feeling of distress, and he didn't even have the strength to break free.

Xiao Chen didn't speak in the bathroom, Si Xiaoqi went to the kitchen after making a round of dough outside.There were still tomatoes and a handful of dried noodles in the refrigerator. Si Xiaoqi put the tomatoes in a bowl and scalded them with boiling water, then went back to the bedroom and took Xiao Chen's pajamas and put them at the door of the bathroom.He knocked on the door and said, "Xiao Chen, I left your clothes at the door, can I make you something to eat?"

After a while, Si Xiaoqi vaguely heard Xiao Chen humming.

He returned to the kitchen, peeled and diced the tomatoes and threw them into the frying pan with low heat. When they became a paste, he added boiling water and beaten eggs to make noodles. Finally, he sprinkled a handful of finely chopped coriander and chives, and served them piping hot from the kitchen.

Xiao Chen was already paralyzed on the sofa in the living room, his whole hair was wet, his face was flushed abnormally, his eyes were not bright at all, and the set of pajamas was still placed on the floor in front of the bathroom.

"Let me change your clothes for you first." Si Xiaoqi squatted down, gently caressed Xiao Chen's cheek, which was hot, "then eat something and go to sleep, okay?"

Xiao Chen slowly opened his eyelids and glanced at Si Xiaoqi: "Does your heart hurt?"

Si Xiaoqi nodded decisively and admitted: "Yes, I really feel sorry for you."

"Accounting," Xiao Chen said dizzily, closing his eyes again, "flesh compensation!"

"You can pay whatever you want!" Si Xiaoqi helped Xiao Chen take off his clothes, put on his pajamas again, touched Xiao Chen's obviously high fever body with his fingers, his heart was sore.

This is not his idea!

In Si Xiaoqi's plan, he should start his new career vigorously, even if he is not rich, he should live without looking at others.Xiao Chen gave him a home when he was at his worst and most embarrassing, and he should also give Xiao Chen a rich and warm space where he can be "willful" and "free".

But in fact, his new Anjie was Xiao Chen's hard work from the first step: Xiao Chen encouraged him to resign and start a business again, Xiao Chen helped him sell the villa, Xiao Chen earned money to support his family, Xiao Chen helped him contact customers, Xiao Chen helped him Chen set up tricks for him at the wine table with his old classmates... These are actually what Xiao Chen hates to do the most. He is a proud cat, why has he ever done these "social parties"?

Si Xiaoqi shamelessly admits that almost every turning point of Xin Anjie is due to Xiao Chen's efforts, and he is so powerless in front of Xiao Chen, so powerless that he doesn't know what else he can do for him other than making a bowl of tomato and egg noodles. do what.

Holding the noodles, Si Xiaoqi picked up a chopstick to cool it and put it into Xiao Chen's mouth, watching him push away the chopsticks and curl up after taking two bites.Si Xiaoqi carried him into the bedroom, and lay down after taking a shower, inserted his fingers into Xiao Chen's hair and massaged his head slightly, thinking that he had to work harder, and he wanted to get the company up and running as soon as possible.

◇◇◇

Si Xiaoqi is a businessman, and businessmen have business rules, so Xiao Chen didn't ask Si Xiaoqi how to talk to Shang Yan's parents, but he also intentionally or unintentionally reminded Si Xiaoqi that Shang Yan's parents were not a " upstart".

Si Xiaoqi attached great importance to this business, so he drove to Huailai to meet the business couple.He didn't prepare high-end cosmetics, handbags, jewelry, etc. as a meeting gift, but carried a whole set of "Anhai Public Transport Company's [-]th Anniversary Commemorative Tickets".The face value of this set of commemorative notes is not high, but because the circulation is too small, it has been sold to five or six thousand sets on the black market.Of course, it is impossible for the business couple to take this little money seriously, and Si Xiaoqi is also aware of this. What he values ​​is the "chic" and "connotation" of this meeting gift.

Sure enough, Dad Shang asked very interestedly: "This thing is really commemorative. Anhai City has issued all series of commemorative tickets for 20 years. Are there any here?"

"Yeah." Si Xiaoqi nodded, "It's all set."

Si's mother pointed to one of them and said to Shang's father: "Hey, I remember when we fell in love, we went to the bus for a whole day just to buy such a ticket... Is that ticket still there? "

"I lost it a long time ago." Father Shang looked at it with interest for a long time and nodded, and he closed the booklet carefully: "Mr. Si bought this set, isn't it very difficult?"

"Just call me Si Xiaoqi. I'm about the same age as Xiao Chen, so I'm a junior in front of you two." Si Xiaoqi said politely, "I didn't buy this commemorative ticket, it was issued by our company. .”

"Sent it?" The business couple looked at each other, "'Your' company..."

Si Xiaoqi took the opportunity to briefly talk about his experience, focusing on his "not afraid of setbacks and resurgence". He rubbed his hands and said with a bit of shame: "When the company collapsed, I went to work as a bus worker. Driver, after calming down for half a year, I still want to try again, so I am a bit unwilling to admit defeat like this."

The business couple immediately looked at Si Xiaoqi with admiration. It turned out that the man in front of him was not a dandy or a "rich second generation", but an entrepreneur who "never say never"!With such a recognition and Xiao Chen's relationship, the business couple happily agreed to sign a three-month contract first.

Si Xiaoqi said: "Mr. Shang, this is the first time we have cooperated. You also know that although I was born in freight transportation, I am now engaged in passenger transportation. So strictly speaking, if you ask me to transport goods, we both have to bear the risk."

Father Shang's face darkened slightly. It seems that they "begged" Si Xiaoqi to save the shipping cost. Si Xiaoqi took the order as "taking care of people". If he didn't accept it, it was reasonable and legal.Father Shang felt that Si Xiaoqi might be charging a high price, and he couldn't help feeling a little dissatisfied.

Si Xiaoqi smiled slightly, and then said: "You are an elder, so I can't let you suffer. How about this, don't book for a quarter first, just book for a month and try it out, if you are satisfied, let's book again One quarter. As for the price..."

"Mr. Si, what is your psychological price?" Father Shang asked in a deep voice.

"In this way, the first month will be based on the price you offered. If you are satisfied with the renewal of the contract, I will let you another [-]%. Do you think it is okay?"

"You... let me?" Dad Shang asked in disbelief, he couldn't understand why Si Xiaoqi took the initiative to lower the price.

"Yes," Si Xiaoqi nodded, "I didn't intend to make money from you at first. To be honest, Shang Yan bought my house because it helped me a lot. It made my funds flow all of a sudden. I always wanted to thank him but never had the chance.”

"Good!" Dad Shang looked at Si Xiaoqi carefully, and praised again: "Good!"

When Si Xiaoqi and Shang's father officially signed the contract, Si Xiaoqi found that many clauses in the contract had changed, and many of the more stringent requirements had been revised.

Si Xiaoqi took this contract and showed it to Xiao Chen as soon as he got home, Xiao Chen said: "I don't understand, you can decide for yourself, just don't lose money."

"No!" Si Xiaoqi patted his chest and assured, "I asked Zhang Hao to run this job, he is the most cautious, and there will be no problems."

"Wouldn't it be a loss if you let three percent?"

"It's a loss," Si Xiaoqi smiled slyly, "You can only gain if you give up, and I will earn 30.00% of the [-]% sooner or later."

"That's fine... By the way, is that set of commemorative tickets really issued by your company?" Xiao Chen squinted at Xiaoqi.

"Of course I bought it on the black market, five thousand and eight!" Si Xiaoqi smiled very calmly and confidently.

◇◇◇

The contract is signed, the first shipment will not start until the beginning of November, and all the freight will be paid by the end of November.Si Xiaoqi still faces a huge problem - capital turnover.

He threw the contract signed with the merchant couple into the drawer, and there was a small red passbook inside, the account name was "Si Xiaoqi", the password was Xiao Chen's birthday, and there was a full 30 in the account.Si Xiaoqi closed the drawer with a bang, and the passbook was in the drawer, and he didn't want to use it under any circumstances.

Si Xiaoqi called Cheng Zihua, and Cheng Zihua said that he had almost finished talking with the travel agency. Fang Sheng and Zhang Yuanqiang had put in a lot of effort. This time the two sides cooperated very happily, and Zhang Yuanqiang helped say a lot of good things in the agency. .

"You make an appointment at a time and place, treat him to a meal, and see what suits you, and you will have to rely on him all the time in the future." Si Xiaoqi said.

"I've already contacted you, next week, I have an appointment with 'Dingtai'."

"Fuck," Si Xiaoqi spat, "Cheng Zi, can't you save some money? I don't know that the company has no money in its books."

"Yes," Cheng Zihua said with a smile, "I have two coupons, don't worry."

Si Xiaoqi hung up the phone and thought, it's really embarrassing for me as the "president" to be thrown into the Pacific Ocean. I have to find coupons to invite customers to dinner. I guess if this continues, I will have to buy a group purchase!He turned on the computer, pulled out the statement of accounts and calculated the income and expenditure for the past month, and then looked at the string of numbers on the fine, and his heart burned instantly.

Everything was going well at first, and the long-distance passenger transport made money in a regular manner, although not much, but enough for the expenses there; the tourist passenger transport has just started here, and Cheng Zihua and I are dealing with it, and it is not enough to receive a few short-distance orders every month enough.Although the entire company will not make a lot of money, it is okay to have a small profit.

But now everything is broken by the word "overcrowding". "Overcrowding" brings not only fines, but also "shutdown and rectification".Only when the wheels of this business are spinning can they "intake money", and once they stop, they will "pay out". Si Xiaoqi looked at the numbers on the ledger viciously, closed the book with a slam, and ran straight to the passenger terminal .

Qiao Xin officially settled in the passenger station a few days ago, he did nothing but chatting with each train crew.After chatting for three days, I found out all about the situation of the entire convoy, so I closed the office door, and Si Xiaoqi and I were chattering and calculating inside.

"Simply put, it can be divided into three factions. The group under Lao Meng's hands is a scourge, and troubles will happen sooner or later; our own people are fine, and we have a stiff fight with Lao Meng's group; I don't want to help you." Qiao Xin summed up the situation briefly, then blinked and stared at Si Xiaoqi.

"Why are you staring at me?" Si Xiaoqi asked.

"According to what I know about you..." Qiao Xin said slowly, "You didn't hold your fart well."

Si Xiaoqi pointed to a name on the roster, gritted his teeth and said, "What's the matter with this person?"

"Lao Meng's family is more difficult." Qiao Xin said after a glance, "I want to make money, but I'm afraid of being punished, so I sneaked two or three times overcrowded. Luckily, I didn't get caught."

"How do you know he's overstaffed?"

"The flight attendant said."

"How is this man?"

"He has a very stubborn temper. It is said that he didn't pay much for Lao Meng's account before, so he was not easy to manage."

Si Xiaoqi looked at the name with his sleeves on his sleeves for a long time, and said, "This person needs to be rewarded."

Qiao Xin curled her lips: "To sow discord, you're using this bad trick again."

"There are clear rewards and punishments. I'm Ming Jun, Xiao Qiao, you should praise me." Si Xiaoqi said with a smile.

"Ming ass, if you want Mingjun, you should punish him." Qiao Xin put away the notebook, tapped it neatly on the table, and then asked, "How do you reward?"

"Propose a team leader, and the basic salary will increase by 500."

"Then how unbalanced do you make those people who are overcrowded and caught?"

"It's just to make them unbalanced. If they are unbalanced, I will balance them." Si Xiaoqi said with a smile, "Let them digest it internally. It will save me trouble when they are digested. If they are not digested... just right, one dose Take the laxative and it's all gone."

Qiao Xin curled her lips and asked, "What about the other ones that didn't violate the rules?"

"Calculate the deductions from the wages of all those who have violated the rules and regulations and distribute them... You can weigh it yourself, find a reason, it should be more, and it should be less." Si Xiaoqi narrowed his eyes and said, "Some people have to run when they should run, and it's safest to leave if they can't stay."
