Prince charming, your persona has collapsed!

Chapter 299 - 169: The Newcomer at the Courier Station, Jiang Xinyi_3



Female college students day in and day out worry their pretty little heads over romantic affairs.

Zhou Yuwen simply didn’t have that much time to ponder so much.

The Double Eleven event, originally scheduled for November 8th, was pressured to start early due to some merchants launching their discount offers in advance, which instantly increased the pressure on the logistics companies. He contacted Liu Shuo to ask if it was possible to recruit people ahead of time.

Liu Shuo then relayed the message to Zhou Yuwen, who said to just bring the people over in advance—it didn’t matter as long as he paid them on time and covered their transportation and lunch expenses.

To ensure the normal operation of the logistics line, the logistics company provided Zhou Yuwen with five buses and additionally gave him a daily meal subsidy of five thousand yuan.

On Yuwen’s end, there were no issues. Every day at 7:30 a.m. on the dot, five buses would park at the university town center’s entrance, each adorned with a banner displaying Xu Huai’s blue logo.

Starting from the 6th, such buses shuttled back and forth within the university town every day.

The initial plan called for three hundred people, but the number of part-time workers varied day to day, with holidays drawing around four hundred, while typical days only saw just over two hundred. @@novelbin@@

To ensure the smooth circulation of parcels, Zhou Yuwen also hired people from outside, a task he entrusted to Zhao Jun.

This was the first time Zhou Yuwen had other dealings with Zhao Jun, letting him realize that Yuwen and his team relied not only on Zhao Jun’s labor agency but that there was a mutual need.

Managing daily wage part-timers ranging from two hundred to four hundred, the monthly turnover was not inconsiderable; transferring money to each individual also meant a significant workload. Explore more stories with NovelBin.Côm

As for the meal expenses, Zhou Yuwen wasn’t familiar with the outside canteens and could only arrange for the university’s canteens, which were at least healthier, besides, five thousand yuan was more than enough to provide about ten yuan per person.

For Yuwen, finding a service window for these people was like striking a big business deal, and they were incredibly welcoming.

As a result, he became quite the catch in their eyes.

With the labor agency still not having a systematic setup, Zhou Yuwen didn’t bother renting an office and instead made his business location next to the red-brick house beside his courier station.

It was You Changjin who managed to approve the place, and he also arranged for two desks and a sofa.

Zhou Yuwen planned to get two computers and air conditioning.

Unfortunately, You Changjin was too incompetent for that.

The workplace at the school was full of intricacies. As a newcomer unfamiliar with office politics, You Changjin couldn’t keep up with it, and Yuwen didn’t want the hassle, so he bought the air conditioner and computers himself.

Before Jiang Xinyi arrived, it was Gao Yang’s introduced senior who took charge.

The senior Gao Yang mentioned was not actually from their university but someone Gao had met while working part-time outside, with an associate degree, a height of 165 cm, a decent appearance, from a small town, with light makeup, dressed in a yellow dress, and wearing high heels purchased from Taobao for 79 yuan.

She was 25 years old, her face was a bit heavily powdered, but the wrinkles were still visible.

Zhou Yuwen had interacted with her for a couple of days in advance and felt that the girl was capable; after all, at 25, having navigated society for a few years, she was sharp-witted.

Honestly, Zhou Yuwen wasn’t too fond of dealing with women over 25.

Women over 25, except for those from very well-off families who still maintain their innocence into their late twenties, most girls after being tempered by society become cunning.

If a woman hasn’t found a preferred partner by the age of 25, there are only two possibilities: one, she isn’t attractive; two, she’s really troublesome.

This was Zhou Yuwen’s experience. After marrying Su Qing in his previous life and becoming a bona fide diamond bachelor, Yuwen wanted for nothing in Jinling and could easily charm girls of eighteen.

But parents wouldn’t see this as a good thing, considering a divorce at thirty still a big deal, they would have their relatives set you up on blind dates to find a simple woman to marry.

You’re already thirty, they’d find someone steady at 25, or even 27 or 28 years old.

Thus, Zhou Yuwen had interacted with this kind of women: indeed, a challenging bunch. They would be picky with a man of Yuwen’s quality, criticizing him for having a divorce history.

Despite being 25 herself, she’d argue she was still a virgin and thus demand an impressive dowry. "I’ve heard you gave your ex-wife three hundred thousand, so naturally, I expect no less."

And there are rumors that you make good money writing novels. Could you teach me to write?

Honestly, once you go on a blind date with a woman over 25, you’ll notice her gaze resembles that of an old dog lying at the edge of a village, assessing through probing, genuine eyes how much value you can bring to her life. Beyond that, you’re of no use to her.

Lv Hui’s look gave Zhou Yuwen the exact impression.

However, since it was just a work relationship, Zhou Yuwen didn’t say anything.

As Liu Shuo was officially the boss, Lv Hui took quite a liking to him. She had seen Liu Shuo driving a minivan to the courier station once, with Gao Yang respectfully calling him "Brother Shuo."

She had overheard this while doing the accounts inside and made a point of coming out for a look.

Liu Shuo was dark and sturdy, with acne scars on his face concealing his age a bit. He was buff and handled parcel deliveries commendably.

Lv Hui pulled Gao Yang aside and asked, "Hey, Gao Yang, is that the owner of your courier station?"
