Ordinary Road 2010

He made a joke, and then said: "Today's meal is an invitation. If you are willing, you can join my current career and continue the fate of our comrades-in-arms."

"Of course, if I don't want to, I won't force it. Let's treat it as a meeting with old colleagues today."

Lin Yi was still confident in his polite words, because he didn't need to go to the appointment if he didn't intend to, and the final result also confirmed his judgment.

All those present expressed their willingness to continue working with him, so that they would have an initial team in Yangcheng.

Lin Yi chatted with them for a while about the taxi-hailing business that he was going to do this time, and then appointed Mo Qing, who had been brought from the capital, as the person in charge, and asked him to explain the operational experience that Wanli Travel had summed up in the past month.

Because he himself has other guests to entertain.

Lin Yi's high school roommate, Brother Yi Zhang Xiaochuan, had been waiting for him in the corner for a long time, and after seeing him pass by, he said easily:

"Are you only thinking of me now?"

This is obviously not an accusation, Lin Yi simply explained: "My schedule in Yangcheng is still very tight this time, so I have arranged business and personal affairs together."

Lin Yi invited Brother Yi to this meal because Zhang Xiaochuan didn't know that he sold for 2000 million US dollars when he came to Yangcheng to deliver with each group. He was not in a good mood, so he settled the bill on his behalf.

Later, after Zhang Xiaochuan saw the news, he denounced him on WeChat.

Of course, these are just excuses for eating. With the relationship between them, they don't care who pays the bill when they get together for a meal.

Zhang Xiaochuan teased: "Boss Lin looks very majestic now, he has gathered a large team with just a few words, I heard that there is more movement in the capital?"

He saw from the news that the media attention in the taxi-hailing industry is higher than that of food delivery, and the competition between Wanli Chuxing and Tutu Taxi has been reported in the newspapers after its launch in Beijing.

Lin Yi didn't hide it: "It's indeed bigger than last time. I pooled 1000 million US dollars to come out. This time I will go to seven cities at once when I go out of Beijing."

Zhang Xiaochuan was a little speechless. He was shocked to hear the amount of 1000 million US dollars, especially from a classmate who was preparing for the college entrance examination in the dormitory like himself more than a year ago.

Brother Yi is actually very perceptive. He saw Lin Yi's performance just now, and he had already guessed that he made an appointment with this bureau.

Sure enough, Lin Yi said next: "When I was on Casual Food Delivery Network before, I asked Brother Yi if he would like to work together, and you refused at that time."

"After all, it's just a small fight, and I didn't insist on it. As for this time, I don't know if the current momentum, and whether the taxi-hailing software industry can catch Brother Yi's eyes?"

Indeed, the reason why Lin Yi asked him to come over without hesitation to witness his reunion with the old subordinate who started his business last time was because he planned to invite him again.

Zhang Xiaochuan gave him a meaningful look, and then asked, "You look strong and strong now, aren't you sure? And even if there is a shortage of people, it seems that there is no need to use an inexperienced sophomore."

Lin Yi knew what he meant: "First of all, I am really short of people. Yangcheng wants to open up the situation as soon as possible, and the manpower you see is far from enough."

"Secondly, college students are not a problem. The city managers I sent to other places to preside over the work are also college students. Many of them are in the same class as us, or only a class or two higher."

"Of course I invite you because I like you personally, but the right to choose is still yours."

Zhang Xiaochuan could understand some things that Lin Yi didn't say too much, and his background was also a very important consideration.

People are the sum of social relations.

However, it is not false that Lin Yi said that he is interested in him. From what happened on the night after the college entrance examination, it can be seen that Brother Yi actually knows everything he should know. It is nothing more than that he is young and has little experience.

Hearing what he said, Zhang Xiaochuan also became serious: "To be honest, Lin Yi, I had already thought about this possibility before I came here, and now I have to say something clearly."

"I didn't plan to start a business during college, but since I met you a few times, it really made my heart a little restless, and I can't wait to get out of the campus to see and see."

"You specially invited me both last time and this time. Apart from the polite greetings just passing by Yangcheng, I know the reason very well."

"Of course, I would not naively think that a person's background can be completely separated from him, so there will be no resistance to this."

"But I still hope that if I join this team to start a business with you, I will take on my personal responsibilities and get the rewards I should get. Do you understand what I mean?"

Hearing this meant that he was already tempted, and Lin Yi fully understood his concerns, and agreed without hesitation.

"Of course!"

"What you said just now coincides with what I think. I don't plan to rely on you to take any shortcuts, or let you take free time with me."

"Actually, if you are willing to join, I plan to let you work under Mo Qing for a while to see how you can do in Yangcheng."

"If it goes well, we will talk about the next arrangement at that time."

Of course, Lin had thought about the role of Zhang Xiaochuan, but he didn't plan to do everything in one step. Everything had to be done step by step.

After three chapters of agreement, Zhang Xiaochuan did not hesitate this time, he solemnly nodded at his old classmate:

"Okay, I'll join!"

Chapter 381 The moon is the hometown of Ming Dynasty

After Zhang Xiaochuan joined, Lin Yi immediately introduced him to Mo Qing who he had brought along, and at night he gave some private instructions to him.

Mo Qing is a smart person, so he agreed with understanding.

In the next few days, Lin Yi didn't get too involved in their promotion work in Yangcheng, but only made some direction decisions and helped the team run in when Mo Qing came to ask him for instructions.

Mo Qing's performance is also good. He has already worked hard in the society, and he knows how important this opportunity is, so he secretly made great determination and made a lot of efforts.

Lin Yi was satisfied with this, so he temporarily left the matter in Yangcheng to him, and he went to Lin'an as agreed with his senior sister.

In other cities, Lin Yi lived with the team, but if he didn't go home in Lin'an, he couldn't justify it anyway.

So Lin Yi asked his senior sister to send over from the capital to find a place to live with the operation team he met in Lin'an.

Of course he called in advance when he went back, so Lin's father and Lin's mother were not too surprised. Ms. Yu Xiujuan also specially prepared a table of dishes and his favorite braised pork.

After filling his stomach at home, Lin Yi asked, "How does your house look? It's been more than a month."

Before Lin Yi left, he left 700 million yuan for them to buy a house. Although this is a big deal, there should be a result after more than a month.

While cleaning the table, Yu Xiujuan asked unhappily: "Why, after earning a little money, I started to dislike the old house at home. I feel wronged by you?"

What she said was obviously the first thing she had agreed to.Lin Yihao said that he had absolutely no such intention, and let them choose carefully until they were satisfied.

Ms. Yu Xiujuan regained the feeling of training her son with a few words, let him know who is in charge of the family, and then answered the question just now.

"Xiaohui helped us find some houses, and we all went to see them. But either the location is not good, or the apartment type is not good, or the lighting and ventilation are not satisfactory."

At the end, she also complained: "I thought 500 million was a lot of money, and it seems that the houses that can be bought are just like that."

In fact, no matter what kind of house you want to pick out, you can pick out the faults. If you are not satisfied with the east and the west, it just means one thing:

Not enough budget.

Yu Xiujuan reported a budget of 500 million to her cousin Cheng Zihui who was looking for a house for them. Lin Yi made the simplest suggestion:

"Should I let my cousin look for a more expensive house? If the previous one is not enough, I will give you some more."

Yu Xiujuan glared at him dissatisfied again: "Is it you who burnt too much money? Let's choose again, I think there will definitely be a suitable house."

This time even the silent Lin Guoqing interjected: "No need, you have a lot of places to spend money outside your business now, keep it for yourself."

As soon as Lin knew that there would be no good cheap houses waiting for the buyers to pick them up, the real estate agency would take them down and not let them out, and then sell them at normal market prices. income.

Real estate in big cities is more investment-oriented than residential. In fact, local citizens who live in old houses and small houses suffer just as much as young people from other places who need to buy a house to take root.

When Lin asked about this, he just thought that the housing prices in the future would get higher and higher, but it is only 2013, and the G20 summit is still early, and the housing prices in Lin'an have been relatively stable in the past two years.

There is no need to tell them this, so Lin Yi found a reason casually: "Success, anyway, you have to settle down sooner or later, cousin can't make people busy for nothing."

"You still need to say it?"

Ms. Yu Xiujuan said disgustedly: "Do we still need you to teach us this bit of worldly wisdom? I have done a little business and showed off at home."

Lin Yi is no longer a small business, but he wisely did not argue with his mother.

"Speaking of cousin, I want to see my uncle tomorrow, why don't you give me a call, or tell him for me."

Lin Yi's uncle Cheng Shengli is a taxi driver.

Lin'an is a tourist city, and there are a lot of tourists during the National Day holiday. If he didn't notify in advance, he might be outside doing work all day.

Ms. Yu Xiujuan asked strangely: "Fresh, you didn't even keep a call from your elders, and you couldn't talk to him when you met during Chinese New Year. Why did you suddenly go to him this time?"

Lin Yi simply explained: "Didn't I say I made a taxi-hailing app before? This time I came back to promote it in the Lin'an market. My uncle has been driving taxis in Lin'an for so many years, so maybe he can help."

Yu Xiujuan looked at her husband beside her.

According to the tacit understanding of the family, no matter what the matter is, whoever's relatives over there are in charge, so of course Lin Guoqing has the final say on Cheng Shengli's affairs.

Lin Guoqing still remembered that during the meal during the summer vacation, Lin Yi asked Cheng Shengli a lot about the taxi industry, knowing that what he said was true.

So he thought for a while and suggested: "It's better like this, let Xiaohui show us two more houses tomorrow, and it happens that you are also working together as a consultant."

"Your uncle will ask him to come here with him, and if there is anything to say, he will tell you face to face. I believe he will not refuse if he can help you."

Lin Yizi had nothing to do, so the matter was settled, and Lin Guoqing went to call his aunt and uncle to explain.

After a while, he finished the phone call, found Lin Yi who was digesting food on the balcony, and told him the result: "It's been agreed, and your aunt has nothing to do at home anyway, so come with us tomorrow."

He hesitated again and asked: "Lin Yi, your uncle is just an ordinary taxi driver, what can he do for you?"

As soon as Lin understood what he meant, Lin Guoqing only had two brothers and sisters, and they hadn't had any conflicts for many years, and they still attached great importance to family harmony.

So Lin Yi reassured him and said, "Don't worry, I'll be sensible, and I won't make any demands that embarrass him, and it's a good thing."

"I don't insist on him. If my uncle doesn't want to, I can go to someone else. In short, it won't hurt the harmony of the family."

Lin Guoqing thought that Lin Yi had a lot of business outside and was no longer a child, so he didn't continue to ask the bottom line.

After the matter was finished, he thought for a while and asked again: "That little student Gu, has she made her debut now, and you haven't seen her on TV?"

Lin Yi had been in Beijing for the previous month, while Gu Caiwei was in Shencheng, so they still kept in touch by phone. As for her career, it was still tepid for the time being.

Lin's father still thinks that people who appear on TV are called stars, and Lin Yi didn't explain too much to him: "Gu Caiwei made her debut in August, but she hasn't become popular yet."

Lin Guoqing used to think that being a debut was equivalent to becoming a star, but now he finds that his understanding seems to be wrong, but after thinking about it, he thinks it is not a bad thing.

He was worried that Gu Caiwei's becoming a star would affect the relationship between the two of them, but now that Lin Yi's business is getting bigger and bigger, the girl is temporarily silent.

Recalling what happened during the summer vacation, he wanted to say something, but after hesitating, he didn't speak. He just patted Lin Yi on the shoulder and said:

"If you have time, go see her more. She should need your support at this time."

Lin Yi agreed, and had a plan in advance: "I will rush to Shencheng immediately after solving the matter in Lin'an."

After talking about this, Lin Guoqing turned around and went back to the house.

But Lin Yi stayed on the balcony and continued to look up at the long-lost night sky in Lin'an. Thinking of the girl mentioned just now, a sentence emerged in his heart inexplicably:

The moon is the hometown light.

Chapter 382 It's All About Cheng Weixue

The next day, my aunt's family of three came to the appointment. First, my cousin Cheng Zihui took Lin's father and Lin's mother to see him and found two houses.

Lin Yi originally planned to live with Lin's father and Lin's mother and didn't want to express his opinions, but he came to express some opinions himself, and didn't rush to bring up the business matter of meeting his uncle yesterday.

It wasn't until after seeing the house that the two families gathered together for a family dinner that Lin Yi said, "Uncle, you have been driving a taxi in Lin'an for so many years, you should know many colleagues, right?"

"That's for sure!"

Cheng Shengli waved his hand: "It's not that I'm telling you, I know at least half of the taxi drivers in Lin'an City, and don't care if I know them or not, there are still friends who want cigarettes on the road."

Generally speaking, the content of a man's "I'm not bragging to you" can be read as a novel, but Lin Yi has no intention of delving into how true he is.

"Have you ever used Kuai Tu Taxi and Tu Tu Taxi?"

"Used it! Don't think that my uncle is an old antique that doesn't know anything. I have used both taxi softwares. They are considered fashionable among the masters of our company."

Kuaidu Taxi is a local brand that started from Lin’an, while Tudu Taxi came from the capital this year. Lin Yi guessed that the reason why he used both is:

Use whichever benefits are more.

Lin immediately stated his plan: "That's good. In fact, what I'm doing now is also a taxi-hailing software similar to those two. Now I need to recruit a group of taxi drivers to go online in Lin'an."

"I would like to ask my uncle to spread the news in your taxi driver's chat group, circle of friends, or places where you often gather. In short, use all means to spread the news and help the driver to register."

"I won't let my uncle do it for nothing. I will give you an exclusive invitation code. As long as you register through your invitation code or the link you send out, I will give you a promotion fee of ten yuan for every registered driver."

Lin Yi didn't make a small fuss for his relatives. In fact, Wanli Travel had already set up this invitation code.

Any registered driver master can be invited to join and there will be rewards. As for the passenger terminal, if the invitation code is used, both parties will have a red envelope deducted.

Cheng Shengli was quite embarrassed when he heard this: "It's my family who said this. I can help you with a little effort."

Lin Yi shook his head: "Uncle, this is not a matter of yelling, it takes time and energy to do it, and if nothing else, it will delay your sports car."

"I'm not asking you to find three or five acquainted masters to support the scene, but I hope to get as many of Lin'an's [-] taxis as possible in a short period of time."

"It is not easy to help a large number of drivers to install and use our Wanli travel app, and I will send people to assist you."

"You have to tell them that as long as you sign up for our app, you can get 20 yuan in cash immediately, and there will be more incentives for running more orders in the future."
