Chapter 3072: Your Chairman Has to Queue Up to Offer Tea
Chen Dantong's expression was the same as the male dispatcher before, a bit unable to understand Lin Yi's behavior.
If it was a friend or relative, or if there was money to be made, it could be understood.
But to help so much for a general acquaintance was hard to fathom.
"Normally, it's not allowed."
This answer was unexpected by Lin Yi.
Because it violated relevant regulations, a principle issue that was hard to break.
But for Chen Dantong to say this, it was something he hadn't anticipated.
"So there's still room for maneuver, right?"
"I can't give you a definite answer right now. Our dispatcher is on duty here, I need to ask her."
"Then I'll trouble you." Lin Yi said politely.
"It's a small matter, just wait here for me."
"Alright."
Chen Dantong turned and went to the third floor. Dispatcher Dong Yu was still awake, holding her phone for a video call.
The person on the other end of the video call was Liang Jinming.
Dong Yu was lying on the bed in the office, speaking softly but with a smile.
Her clothes were disheveled, revealing a large expanse of white skin.
From her expression, it seemed she wasn't discussing anything serious.
"Yesterday when we went out, I forgot to ask you, what does your buddy do? He can hang out with you guys, but why is he still a courier?"
"I won't tell you about my brother's identity, but he's definitely much more impressive than me."
"Ah? More impressive than you?"
"Ten of me can't match one of my brother. Even your group's chairman has to queue up to offer tea to my brother." Liang Jinming said.
"So don't ask too many questions."
Hearing Liang Jinming's evaluation of Lin Yi, Dong Yu's heart rate quickened.
She knew Liang Jinming's identity well and knew he wasn't one to exaggerate.
But for even him to evaluate Lin Yi this way, it was enough to show that Lin Yi's identity was at an astonishing level.
This also made Dong Yu realize that the regional general manager, Zhou, might know his identity.
Otherwise, with the business volume of Xing Sheng Home and Heping Road branch, it wouldn't be worth sending a dedicated vehicle.
It might be because they guessed his identity that they gave such treatment.
"But the question is, if he's so impressive, why is he still a courier? Is it that money is no longer interesting, or that women are no longer fun?"
"I don't know. My brother can't sit still, he just wants to find some fun in life." Liang Jinming said.
"Now he's working at your place, if anyone acts tough with my brother, call me."
"Forget it, if I really tell you, they'll lose their legs."
"Haha, you know me well."
Knock knock knock—
Hearing the knocking, Dong Yu hurriedly said:
"I have something to do, I'll call you back later."
She ended the video call with Liang Jinming and quickly tidied her clothes.
"Come in."
Seeing Chen Dantong, Dong Yu's expression became serious.
"What's up?"
"Leader, the courier from Xing Sheng Home is here."
"The courier?"
Muttering, Dong Yu quickly realized it was likely Lin Yi.
"Are you talking about Lin Yi?"
"Yes, that's him."
"It's so late, what's he here for?"
Confirming Lin Yi's identity, Dong Yu became serious.
Whether it was due to her relationship with Liang Jinming or his true identity, she couldn't be careless.
"He said the driver responsible for the Xing Sheng Home branch was injured, and he wants to help Master Li run a long-distance trip."
"He wants to run a long-distance trip?"
Chen Dantong nodded, "He's a courier, not a long-distance truck driver, so I wanted to ask the leader how to handle this."
"Did he say why he wants to help? Is it a personal favor?"
"Um..."
Chen Dantong said with a mix of amusement and frustration, "He said his childhood dream was to drive a truck, and he wants to use this opportunity to try it out."
"Uh..."
Dong Yu also laughed.
A person who makes the chairman of a group queue up to offer tea, and his dream is to drive a truck?
Isn't this a joke?
Even if he said his dream was to drive an excavator, it would be more believable.
"You go back first, I'll make a call and let you know later."
"Understood, leader."
Chen Dantong left the office.
Dong Yu took out her phone and sent a video call to Liang Jinming.
"Your brother is at the regional office, saying he wants to run a long-distance trip."
"Huh? What kind of long-distance trip?"
"Just logistics delivery."
"Let him go, it's not a big deal."
"It's not a matter of big or small. Running a long-distance trip is very dangerous, and it's easy for non-professional drivers to have accidents." Dong Yu said.
"What if something really happens on the road? Who will take responsibility?"
"Don't worry about that. With my brother's skills, it's not just driving a truck, even flying a plane would be fine. Just follow my advice and arrange it directly." Liang Jinming said.
"If you can't handle it, I'll contact your superiors."
"I'm the dispatcher, and this is my responsibility. I'm mainly concerned about safety."
"No problem, don't worry about my brother's skills, just arrange it boldly."
Dong Yu smoothed her hair, showing a bit of a mature woman's charm.
"I'll arrange it first, and I'll let you know later."
"Go ahead."
...
At the same time, Chen Dantong had already returned to the office with Lin Yi, waiting for Dong Yu's response.
Lin Yi stood by, unsure if this would work.
If it didn't, he would have to contact the regional office's direct superior.
"Brother Lin, come here."
Hearing Chen Dantong call him, Lin Yi walked over.
"Any results?"
"Yep, it's all set." Chen Dantong said.
"Master Li runs routes to Northeast China, delivering goods to the Ice City regional transfer center. The total distance is about 2300 kilometers, and you must reach the transfer center within 60 hours. Any problems?"
"No."
"Keep some Red Bull and coffee in the car, drink them when you're tired, but make sure to stay safe."
Chen Dantong covered her mouth, "A few hours late isn't a big deal, just don't have an accident."
"Got it."
"I'll issue your ticket now."
"Okay."
The ticketing process was quick, done in just a few seconds.
"Xiao Zhang, you also run the Ice City route. You two will go together, and take care of each other."
A female colleague sitting next to Chen Dantong said.
Zhang Gang glanced at Lin Yi and said expressionlessly:
"Mainly, there's no way to take care of him. He's new, and he definitely can't keep up with me. I can't slow down my progress; I still need to win the on-time delivery bonus."
"Just take care of him appropriately." The female colleague said.
"After all, there are few people in the region who can keep up with you."
"You know me well, the record of running to Ice City in 36 hours was set by me."
