Chapter 15 Let me tell you a joke
"Ding, you have a new takeaway order, please process it in time."
The daily life of the delivery man officially kicked off. At 11 a.m., the peak period began. Su He received 15 orders in one go. The smart food delivery order-taking assistant appeared in his mind. All the orders on the mobile phone were synchronized to the order-taking assistant. The estimated pick-up time, the most reasonable delivery route, countdown and other data analysis looked clear.
This is fucking cheating. Su He rode towards the nearest pick-up location.
Intelligent navigation appeared in my mind again, and even an iron nail appeared on the ground, giving a prompt.
Su He did not sit idly by. He got out of the car and found the iron nail that was stuck upside down in the crack of the cement. He found a stone in the green belt and smashed the nail flat. Then he returned to the electric bike.
When passing by the repair shop in front, Su He raised his middle finger towards the proprietress.
The proprietress was sitting on the side of the road basking in the sun. She stood up and started cursing. She chased me for dozens of meters and finally went back cursing.
With the order-taking assistant and navigation, Su He's efficiency increased exponentially. After delivering fifteen orders, he directly grabbed twenty orders.
It was a bit difficult to deliver twenty orders. There was a small incident in the middle. A restaurant accidentally knocked over the food when serving it, and it had to be redone, which was delayed for ten minutes. However, we managed to avoid the time limit in the end.
Su He continued delivering food until 2:30 in the afternoon, and he was finally able to sit down and rest for a while. During the daily lunch rush hour, delivering food was like fighting a war, and every second counted.
I found a small restaurant to eat, and when I opened WeChat, I saw that the delivery guys in the group were already quarreling.
"Oh my god, has Su He been so excited? He's so fierce!"
Someone took a screenshot of the site's ranking and sent it to the group. Su He ranked first with 68 orders, while the second place Wu Xiaodong only had 32 orders.
Jinnan City is just a second-tier city. According to the normal order volume, being able to complete 70 to 80 orders a day is already the ceiling. Unexpectedly, Su He completed 68 orders in one afternoon.
"Those who survive a great disaster will surely be blessed in the future. Su He has awakened!"
"Worship the Great God!"
"Master, are you still missing an accessory on your waist? Give me one!"
Looking at the messages in the group, Su He ate and laughed.
“Hehe…”
The boss lady's son was playing with an excavator and looked around.
"Mom, there are chickens calling..."
"Son, I don't have any chicks, I'm single..."
…
After dinner, Su He closed the order form, went to the supermarket to buy two large bags of rice and a barrel of oil, and rode his electric bike to Xingfuli Community.
After locking the electric bike, Su He carried the rice and the oil barrel and slowly walked into Unit 2 of Building 7.
601, Shen Yue’s home.
Su He dusted himself off, took off his helmet, and then gently knocked on the door.
The door opened, and an old woman looked up at Su He, turned around and walked in without saying a word.
The old woman's name was Xiang Wanrong. Shen Yue always said that her mother's name was nice.
"Aunt Xiang, I poured the rice into the bucket. There's a leak in the kitchen. I'll ask a friend to take a look tomorrow. He used to do this..."
"The soy sauce and salt are almost gone. I'll go downstairs and buy some later. Is there anything else you need at home?"
In the living room, there was a statue of Guanyin Bodhisattva placed where the TV was originally hung. Aunt Xiang was kneeling there, as if she didn't hear anything.
Su He picked up the broom and started cleaning. Just as he was about to mop the floor, the door opened and a gray-haired man was carrying a fish and some side dishes.
"Honey, look what I bought...our daughter's favorite fish...Xiao Su, you're here?"
Shen Yue's father, Shen Yuanzhong, had a smiling face when he entered the door, but his face instantly turned serious after he saw Su He.
"Uncle Shen, I'm here..."
Su He took the things in Shen Yuanzhong's hand and carried them into the kitchen. Just as he finished cleaning the fish, Shen Yuanzhong walked in.
"Xiao Su, go and keep Yueyue company. I'll cook the fish. Yueyue has loved the fish I cook since she was a kid."
Su He washed his hands, gave up his seat, and said, "Then I'll go mop the floor first, and then I'll go after I'm done..."
"No need to delay, we're going to sell it anyway!" Shen Yuanzhong placed the fish on the chopping board and took out a casserole from the cupboard.
"sold?"
Su He looked at Shen Yuanzhong and asked in confusion: "Uncle Shen, what did you say you want to sell it?"
"What else can we sell? Besides this shabby house, which is worth some money, Yueyue's uncle has contacted a hospital in the capital. There is a neurosurgeon who specializes in treating Yueyue's condition, but the cost is a bit high. You and I have discussed it with Aunt Xiang, and we want to sell this house, plus the money you gave us this year, and we want to try again..."
Su He didn't say anything, mopped the floor, and walked towards Shen Yue's room.
The door of the room was open. On a single bed lay a woman with thin cheeks and pale face. The room smelled very bad. Su He opened the window a little, looked at the sunlight shining on Shen Yue's face, and gently massaged her whole body.
"Yueyue, Uncle Shen said he would take you to the capital, are you happy? You told me before that our wedding photos would be taken in Tiananmen Square, don't forget it, I've been waiting, you have to keep your word..."
"Guess how many orders I ran today? Haha, 68 orders. You never expected that. When I talked to you like this before, you would scold me for being boastful. I really want to hear you scold me a few more times. You can think about it slowly and prepare a super long scolding speech. When you wake up, you can scold me enough at once..."
"Let me tell you a joke. Do you know why the sea is blue? You may not know. It's because that fish can spit bubbles, blue~blue~..."
"Not funny... Then let me tell you another one. Do you know where Sun Wukong's golden hoop is?... Haha, do you mean it's in his ear? The great thing about his golden hoop is that it matches his hairstyle very well..."
"Yueyue, I find that your sense of humour is getting higher and higher. It seems that if I don't use some of my best jokes, I really can't stop you... "
At the door, Shen Yuanzhong stood at the door holding the fish soup and coughed lightly.
"Xiao Su, go and do your work first. Your aunt Xiang and I are here..."
Su He stood up, then bent down to tidy up Shen Yue's hair, and then walked out. He took out 10,000 yuan in cash from his bag and put it on the table. He walked to the door and said, "Uncle Shen, Aunt Xiang, I'm leaving first."
After closing the door, Su He took out his mobile phone and started taking orders again.
At 11:50 p.m., Su He stopped accepting orders. Looking at his data, there were 206 orders, which was four times his previous number.
At this time, Ma Mingzhe called.
"You beast, have you taken the little blue pill? Why are you so fierce? Why are you working so hard? We agreed to be poor together, but you secretly became rich."
"Are you scolding Su He? Let me scold you too, Su He, you..."
Su He hung up the phone in time, preventing Pan Zhigang from scolding him.
It was late at night and there were only a few people walking on the street. Su He found a noodle shop, ate a bowl of noodles, and ended the day's running around.
