Chapter 1893: One Family Is Happy, One Family Is Sad
On the second day of the opening of Pengcheng Taxi Company, hundreds of taxis with the words "Pengcheng Taxi" printed on them began to flow through the streets and alleys of Qingshu County. With the addition of dozens of brand-new taxis put into use by the city, a beautiful landscape was formed, attracting passers-by to stop.
In recent days, many people in the county have changed their situation of taking tricycles with higher risk factors because they cannot get taxis when traveling. They certainly know that taking taxis is not only warm and comfortable, but also very safe. For a time, the taxi business has become prosperous again.
Similarly, most people in Qingshu County have known Liu Fengxia because of the high-quality service of Pengcheng Company. They praise her and admire Qingshu County for producing such a capable female entrepreneur!
One family is happy and the other is sad. Pengcheng Taxi Company has just opened and its business is very good. In contrast, Jinhui Company's business is very deserted. Most of Jinhui Company's drivers have gone to Pengcheng Company, leaving only a pitiful dozen drivers. Because of the small share, they are also mixed up. As a result, the situation of Jinhui Company has suddenly become embarrassing.
Following his brother Lu Shiyong's wishes, Lu Shibo sent a special "flower basket" on the day of Pengcheng Taxi's opening, just to vent his anger. When she saw Liu Fengxia's angry expression, she knew that her goal had been achieved and was very proud.
However, this pride was temporary. Pengcheng's strength soon showed up. A huge fleet of taxis ran through the streets and alleys of Qingshu County, firmly grabbing the business of Jinhui Company. Seeing the depressed situation, Lu Shibo soon fell into helplessness. Looking at the taxis printed with Pengcheng Company running everywhere, Lu Shibo's heart was ignited with anger.
Lu Shibo was impatient and found his brother Lu Shiyong again.
Looking at Lu Shibo who was complaining in front of him, Lu Shiyong looked very calm, as if nothing had happened, crossing his legs and smoking slowly.
"Brother, you see now, right? Liu Fengxia's fleet has taken away all our business. The remaining drivers can't even make enough money to make ends meet. You should think of a solution quickly. If things continue like this, we two brothers will really have no way to survive."
Lu Shiyong glanced at Lu Shibo and didn't say anything. In fact, there was a hint of impatience in his eyes when he looked at Lu Shibo.
"Brother, if you don't say anything, Jinhui Company will be finished," Lu Shibo stepped forward and stared at Lu Shiyong anxiously, "Isn't my brother-in-law in the County Transportation Bureau? If it doesn't work, go find my brother-in-law and see if he has any good ideas? After all, taxis are managed by the County Transportation Bureau. My brother-in-law has been in the Transportation Bureau for more than ten years. It would be easy for him to come up with any way to deal with Pengcheng Company?"
"Nonsense!"
As soon as Lu Shibo finished speaking,
Lu Shiyong's face suddenly darkened, and he shouted, shooting a sharp look at Lu Shibo.
Lu Shibo was startled and shuddered. He quickly stepped back and stared at Lu Shiyong blankly, "Brother, what are you doing..."
"Are you stupid? Pengcheng Taxi Company has all the necessary procedures and operates legally. It also has strong support from the county. If you let your brother-in-law do this, isn't that going against the county and letting him jump into the fire pit?" Lu Shiyong rolled his eyes at his brother fiercely and shouted angrily.
"But...but, we can't just watch others bully us. We are on the same boat now. I'm hungry and you're hungry too. Are we just going to let it go and let others shit on our heads without saying a word? We have to think of a way?"
Lu Shibo's anxiety was right. After all, the two brothers relied on Jinhui Company to dominate the taxi market in the county. They have made a lot of money for more than ten years. Now the company suddenly has no income and is about to go bankrupt and not have enough food. Anyone would be restless.
And what Lu Shiyong said was also correct. If he let his brother-in-law Jiang Lihui do something, wouldn't it be like shooting himself in the foot? Not only would it not have any effect, but if the county knew about this matter, whether Jiang Lihui could keep his position would be another matter.
"At this point, it's too late to ask for help from my brother-in-law. My brother-in-law is also a smart man. He won't be stupid enough to make things difficult for his current position!"
Lu Shiyong lit another cigarette, thought for a while, and said in a deep voice, "I have also seen that Pengcheng Company is doing very well these days. I have considered this issue..."
"Then tell me quickly, what good ideas do you have?" Lu Shibo heard this, and a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes.
"Hmph, why use a butcher knife to kill a pig!" Lu Shiyong snorted coldly, "Liu Fengxia's Pengcheng Company has just been established. She is still a little immature if she wants to compete with our Jinhui Company! Come, do as I say, stew the meat slowly, I don't believe Liu Fengxia can handle it!"
Lu Shiyong waved his hand, motioning Lu Shibo to come forward, and gave him some instructions in his ear. Lu Shibo's anxious expression gradually relaxed, and finally revealed a bright smile.
"The old ginger is still spicy, brother, is this called killing with a blunt knife, let's torture him slowly?" Lu Shibo's face was already full of excitement.
"If you can understand this, it means you are not stupid!" Lu Shiyong looked at his brother with disdain and extinguished the cigarette butt in the ashtray.
"Haha, this is a good idea. Why didn't I think of it? Brother, you are really good. Now it will be a big deal for Pengcheng Company." Lu Shibo, who had a gloomy face before, was like a completely different person at this time, and hurriedly poured water and made tea for Lu Shiyong.
"Look at your lack of ability!" Lu Shiyong pointed at his brother in front of him and snorted coldly, "Everything has a solution, it depends on whether you use your brain. What does our Jinhui Company rely on to operate steadily in the county?"
Lu Shiyong pointed to his head again, "It depends on this! If you don't use your brain, our Jinhui Company would have been finished long ago!"
"Yes, brother is right!" Lu Shibo smiled awkwardly and scratched his head, "I will use my brain more in the future..."
"There are only so many people in Qingshu County. Even if Pengcheng Company's business is good, without the support of human traffic and economy, his Pengcheng Company is just a grasshopper in autumn, which can't jump for a few days. If you do what I said and give them this blow, I wonder how long it can last!"
Lu Shiyong's eyes showed a cold look, "By then, the taxi market in Qingshu County will still be the world of our two brothers?"
Lu Shibo nodded and looked out the window. A layer of complacency appeared in his sinister eyes.
