411: Please trick me

Wu Zhong Logistics Company.

Shen Bei spent half a day driving around the provincial capital before finally finding this logistics company in the suburbs.

In a parking lot, several large articulated trucks were parked.

A two-story building served as the office.

Led by a recruitment staff member, he entered the building.

Upon entering, he saw that it was quite legitimate.

All business licenses were complete.

"Sit."

The staff member was a tattooed man named Zhao Zichuan, in his forties.

He had a high nose bridge and tightly closed lips, exuding an air of indifference.

He looked like a gangster who had gone straight.

Shen Bei sat down with a smile.

Zhao Zichuan, with a cigarette in his mouth and his legs crossed, sized up Shen Bei.

But no matter how he looked, he clearly didn't recognize Shen Bei.

"What kind of work have you done before?" Zhao Zichuan pulled at the corners of his mouth, revealing an ambiguous smile.

Shen Bei acted like a novice, rubbing his hands: "Oh, a lot! Like stadium attendant, delivery person, food delivery, bricklayer on construction sites, and so on."

Zhao Zichuan grunted, "How much money can you make from those jobs? Coming here is the right choice. One job here is worth several months of your old work."

"That's right, that's right." Shen Bei nodded: "I saw it online. I heard you can earn eight or nine thousand for one escort trip!"

"That's just a small amount."

Zhao Zichuan switched into sales mode: "Work a bit harder, and five thousand a month isn't a dream!"

"Aren't we paid per trip?"

"I'm talking about the total."

"That's good." Shen Bei's face showed eagerness: "Then arrange a job for me, I want to earn money!"

"Don't rush."

Zhao Zichuan quickly grinned silently, his parted lips like a flattened, oval-shaped black hole: "Let me first introduce our work model."

He extended a finger, and his voice, full of temptation, came: "Short-distance delivery, guaranteed 6,500, 4-6 days off, 150 subsidy for 1 day on a business trip, comprehensive salary around 10,000 yuan! Short-distance means delivering from your hometown station to various towns!"

"Wow!"

Shen Bei's face showed excitement: "That's a lot of money!"

Zhao Zichuan looked at Shen Bei like a fat sheep and said again: "Long-distance delivery guarantees 8,500 a month, about 21 days on business trips, 9 days off, 200 daily business trip subsidy. Comprehensive salary is around 13,000."

"Train delivery, 9,500 guaranteed, 300 daily business trip subsidy, about 20 days on a single business trip, comprehensive salary around 16,300."

"And you don't have to do anything. Loaders will handle all loading and unloading. You just need to count the goods and make sure nothing is missing. You just need to be able to count."

Shen Bei nodded frequently and quickly said: "I'm not an idler. I'm genuinely here to apply for a job."

"Good, good, good. I see you're an honest kid."

Zhao Zichuan extinguished his cigarette and waved his hand: "Let me see your escort work permit. I'll handle your onboarding. There's a truck going to Chuan Prefecture about to leave, you can directly start and follow it."

Shen Bei was stunned and said with a confused look: "Escort work permit? This job requires a permit?"

"Isn't that obvious!"

Zhao Zichuan curled his fingers and tapped heavily on the table: "We are a legitimate company, and we need professional talent. Even security guards have security licenses. How could such an important position not require a permit?"

Shen Bei's reaction became very strange, like he was carsick on the ground, his expression very uncomfortable: "But I don't have one!"

"I see you're not an easy kid, how about this..."

Zhao Zichuan feigned deep thought and difficulty: "I'll get you a permit, you just need to pay a 10,000 yuan permit processing fee."

"That much?"

"Nonsense!" Zhao Zichuan was a bit annoyed: "This ten thousand yuan isn't just a fee; it also includes tips for government officials to ensure you can get the permit even if you're not present. If you don't grease their palms, will they do things for you?"

"Oh." Shen Bei suddenly understood: "It's about human relations, human relations."

"That's right." Zhao Zichuan opened his phone's QR code for payment: "Just scan it."

Shen Bei didn't hesitate and immediately scanned the 10,000 yuan.

Shen Bei naturally knew what kind of scam this company was running.

But he wasn't afraid at all.

He just loved playing with them!

Did they think his money was that easy to take?

Zhao Zichuan chuckled and said: "I'm telling you, for this job, so many people are desperate to get in, but I don't take them."

"Look, the job content is so simple. You mainly just sit in the passenger seat. The driver is only responsible for driving. Your job is mainly to count the goods, deliver them to the client company, let the other party confirm the quantity, sign the receipt, and then bring it back to the company's finance department. Simply put, you are responsible for counting, safekeeping, verifying, delivering, and handling handover procedures. The goods are all loaded and unloaded by forklift operators."

"It's just that I see we have 'yuan' (destiny/money), that's why I'm taking you."

It's more like they have 'yuan' (money), isn't it?

Alright, alright.

Please continue your performance.

Sure enough, Zhao Zichuan fiddled with his phone for a while, then his face suddenly changed: "Oh no! The medical examination fee just went up!"

"Huh?"

"Don't worry, the person there is my buddy, we have a very good relationship. He wants 500 for the medical exam, but I've pushed it down to 300 for you. Quickly transfer it to me."

"Okay."

"Oh no! Something else happened!"

"Huh?"

"I forgot to include the insurance fee!"

"There's an insurance fee too?"

"What if you get into a car accident? Of course, there needs to be insurance."

"How much?"

"This isn't much, 5,000."

Shen Bei clicked his tongue and continued to scan the QR code for five thousand yuan.

After taking the money, Zhao Zichuan began his routine again: "Alright, that's about it, you can get in the car now."

Shen Bei was also excited: "I'm full of energy, let's go!"

"Wait––"

Zhao Zichuan slapped his head, exclaiming: "Oh my, my head! I forgot another important thing. You're escorting goods, and those goods are very valuable. What if you're not careful and they get lost?"

"I'll keep an eye on them twenty-four hours a day! They won't get lost." Shen Bei patted his chest and promised.

"How can that be? I trust you, but the company hasn't given the go-ahead."

"Then what do you suggest?"

Zhao Zichuan immediately said: "You pay a 30,000 deposit, and it will be refunded to you when you return."

"But..."

Shen Bei looked a bit troubled: "Isn't that too much?"

"This is a deposit." Zhao Zichuan said earnestly: "It's refundable. All that money has already been spent, and you're about to get in the car. Are you still short this much?"

Shen Bei sighed, a look of bad luck on his face: "Alright, this is my life savings, my coffin money, I really have nothing left."

"Don't drag it out!" Zhao Zichuan even got anxious: "The truck is about to leave!"

Shen Bei scanned another thirty thousand, then said with a smile: "You must refund it to me. Lying doesn't end well."

Zhao Zichuan snorted, thinking: "There's a fool every year, but this year there are especially many!"

Everyone clamors for a refund.

Which one of them has successfully gotten their money back?

Do they really think our Wu Zhong Logistics boss is a pushover?

Even the police have to make way for us!

We just scam you guys who have no culture, no skills, no strength, and are greedy for money!

Zhao Zichuan waved his hand, looking impatient: "Go, the Jiefang articulated truck, just follow it."

On this point, Zhao Zichuan didn't lie. Their company really had logistics going to Chuan Prefecture, unlike other logistics companies that scam money and then dump people into factories to screw in bolts.

"Alright!"

Shen Bei rubbed his hands, dashed out, and got into the truck.

However, the driver looked at Shen Bei like he was an idiot.

He smirked disdainfully, then drove the truck out of the provincial capital and straight towards Chuan Prefecture!
