Chapter 218 Suffering from the pain of express delivery sorting
In some ways, Lu Rong's thinking is different from that of people of this era and he occupies a higher ground.
In the end, he agreed to Li Yuanyuan's request.
The sudden surprise made Li Yuanyuan's head buzz, followed by a burst of ecstasy.
Yes, who said it’s not allowed? It’s just that no one has ever said this before, and everyone just accepts it, so we’re missing out on this benefit!
The two walked all the way to the Tiandi Shuangxiong area where there was not much queue. This amusement facility consisted of two tall towers, one purple and the other yellow.
The straight tower rises from the ground, giving people a visual impact of soaring into the clouds.
While waiting in line, Lu Rong listened to Li Yuanyuan's introduction to the live broadcast room while watching the round base constantly ejected in the sky.
Faintly, you could hear screams coming from the sky.
Lu Rong felt a little scared. In his life, the tallest building he had ever climbed was the Star-Picking Tower, and the highest means of transportation he had ever taken was an airplane.
Although the altitude of the airplane is much higher than this, can it be the same?
He didn't have the time and energy to go to the amusement park before, but now he has the opportunity to experience it through the filming of a variety show that looks like a part-time job.
He thought, since he was also an actor who was skilled in using wires, this bungee jumping machine shouldn’t have much impact on him, right... ?
Finally, it was Lu Rong's turn to board the equipment. He slowly walked into the narrow cockpit, sat down, fastened his seat belt according to the staff's instructions, and held the handrails tightly with both hands.
At this moment, he could hear his own heartbeat particularly clearly in this enclosed space, and Li Yuanyuan's excited chattering was blocked out.
Behind Lu Rong was a bunch of tourists who wanted to take photos with him, and he somehow followed the group and boarded the bungee jumping machine.
The towers on both sides filled up quickly, much faster than the last group started.
With a crisp bell ringing, the equipment began to rise slowly.
Lu Rong's sight gradually rose higher, the scenery of Happy Valley unfolded little by little under his feet, and the crowd became as small as ants.
The tower was not rising very fast, and he was just about to relax and enjoy the rare view from high above.
Suddenly, something flashed by and catapulted into the sky. Everyone was thrown a long distance away before the screams reached them.
There was no time to think about anything, the ascent speed suddenly increased, and the body seemed to be pulled straight upwards by a powerful force.
The wind whistled past her ears, making Lu Rong's hair fly wildly and her cheeks hurt.
This rapidly rising feeling made his stomach churn and his heart seemed to be about to jump out of his throat.
Before Lu Rong could fully adapt to the intense feeling of rising, the equipment reached the top in an instant and then dropped rapidly without any warning.
At that moment, the feeling of weightlessness swept through every corner of his body. Lu Rong's mind went blank and he could only close his eyes instinctively. The speed of descent was so fast that he had the illusion that his soul was leaving his body.
There are two tall towers, the left one shoots up into the sky, and the right one falls down and leaves the soul.
After several rapid ascents and descents, the speed of the equipment gradually slowed down, but the young man's heartbeat was still difficult to calm down.
When the cockpit finally landed smoothly on the ground, he unbuckled his seat belt and stood there blankly, his legs still a little weak.
His face was pale with a hint of shock, and one of his dragon horns was crooked.
Compared with Li Yuanyuan's unsatisfied yelling, Lu Rong's situation looked even more pitiful. The live broadcast room couldn't help but laugh out loud at the two people's completely different states:
“Fake fear: yelling and screaming.
Really scared: close your eyes and clench your teeth to grab things. "
"It's not fun at all. I fell asleep last time I played it, and the staff pressed my philtrum to wake me up (covering my eyes and laughing.jpg)"
"Little White Dragon: Money is hard to earn and shit is hard to eat. Selling your beauty is not enough, you also have to play with others."
"I was lying on the bed and my legs suddenly went weak..."
"Although, my brother looks like a sick beauty in this state... I'll lick it."
"No kidding, your butt is hanging in the air during this kind of descent."
"Who peed in their pants?"
Li Yuanyuan, who was satisfied, did not make things difficult for Lu Rong anymore. She said goodbye to Xiao Bailong despite the reluctance of everyone in the live broadcast room. Before leaving, she even said that she would give him a good review.
After completing the task of taking a group photo with a long line of people behind him, Lu Rong finally completed all the work for the morning.
The Happy Valley where Lu Rong works calculates wages based on the number of performances an actor performs. For non-fixed performances like his, he can get around three hundred and fifty.
He quickly changed out of his special clothes, politely declined Lao Zhang's invitation to dinner, and trotted to the door of the fast food restaurant that had a partnership with the nursing home.
He put on his neat work clothes quickly, his face full of seriousness.
The kitchen staff placed steaming hot meals on the table. Today's meals included soft and glutinous rice porridge, steamed eggs, fresh fruit slices and soft steamed buns.
He carefully put the meals into the insulated delivery box one by one, checked it, gently carried the box on his back, adjusted the shoulder straps, took a deep breath, and set off steadily on his electric scooter.
"Ride my beloved little motorcycle and there will never be a traffic jam~" Lu Rong squinted his eyes and hummed comfortably.
Turning from the shopping mall into the alley, there are gradually more trees on the roadside, and the background changes from high-rise buildings to distant mountains. This place is a rare paradise that has not been affected by urbanization.
Lu Rong walked into the corridor of the nursing home with brisk steps.
There is a peaceful and tranquil atmosphere in the corridor, with hand-painted works of the elderly and warm family photos hanging on the walls.
Lu Rong knocked on the door politely and said softly, "Grandpa and grandma, the food is here."
After hearing a kind response from inside, he slowly pushed the door open.
The old man in the room was sitting by the window basking in the sun. When he saw the young man come in, a kind smile appeared on his face.
"Cheng Cheng, are you here?"
Lu Rong walked quickly to the old man's small dining table, took out the food one by one, and placed them neatly. He also carefully opened the lid of the porridge for the old man and raised his head: "Grandpa, today's porridge is very thick, please try it."
He didn't know who Cheng Cheng was. The dean told him that many grandparents in the courtyard couldn't remember what their children and grandchildren looked like, so they just responded as they pleased.
The old man thanked him repeatedly, and the young man responded with a patient smile, then packed up the delivery box and went to the next room.
In another room, there lived an old lady who had difficulty moving around.
Lu Rong not only put the food away, but also took the initiative to help the old lady adjust her sitting position and pushed the dining table to the appropriate position.
The old lady took Lu Rong's hand with a smile, wanting to give him a piece of her treasured maltose and a stack of red envelopes.
Lu Rong quickly declined, saying that it was what she should do, and then helped the old lady put the things on a small cabinet nearby before leaving the room.
As time went by, he did not stop until he came out of the last room. Then he picked up the lunch box at the bottom and sat on the tree stump, eating with relish.
The photographer set up the camera and went to get the lunch boxes distributed by the program crew. He looked at the three meat dishes and one vegetable dish in his lunch box, as well as a big chicken drumstick and tomato and egg soup.
Look at Lu Rong's bowl again: the unappetizing boiled tofu, boiled hairtail, and stir-fried shredded white radish and red radish...
Although the meal delivery job includes lunch and dinner, they eat the same food as the grandparents in the nursing home.
People who are older cannot eat food that is too salty or spicy, which results in the lunch box in Lu Rong's hand being light, like a fat-reducing meal.
In comparison, it was really miserable. Anyway, for the photographer, no matter how hard it was, he couldn't let his stomach suffer.
Looking at Rongrong's bulging face after eating, the little brother felt pity as a mother fan. Unfortunately, he couldn't do anything under the camera.
After finishing his meal, Lu Rong had no time to rest and went to the coffee table inside the airport again. This place has almost become their regular meeting place.
He was the first to arrive this time. Not long after he sat down, Hang Yan walked in from the side door, looking exhausted.
The moment he saw Emperor Hangying, Lu Rong sat up straight in astonishment.
His hair, which had been fairly neat before, now looked as if it had been blown by a strong wind. A few strands of hair were soaked with sweat and stuck randomly to his forehead and cheeks.
His work clothes were soaked with sweat, sticking tightly to his back and chest. Large sweat stains spread from the collar to his abdomen, with different shades of color.
The front of his clothes was covered in dust and stains, some black and some brown, and his pants were not spared either, with tiny scraps of paper and tape on his trouser legs.
Hang Yan's hands were in an even more horrible state. His originally clean palms had turned black and were covered in dust.
There was a very obvious wound on the back of his hand, which had formed a dark red scab.
His eyes were filled with fatigue and emptiness, as if all the energy in his body had been drained by the work of the morning.
Lu Rong quickly stood up, took out a pack of paper and handed it to Hang Yan to wipe it: "Brother Hang, what are you doing...?"
"I finally understand why courier sorters are paid on a daily basis..." Hang Yan slumped in the seat with lifeless eyes, his arms still twitching unconsciously.
"Why?" Ge Jiayi, who had arrived at some point, asked curiously.
Liang Yuan had a sullen face, but he temporarily suppressed his complaints and looked at Hang Yan.
He covered his face and narrated his miserable experience with a look of despair:
"I'm on the early shift today, and I have to work for eight hours. There's no seat, so I have to stand. I have to handle a whole truck, and my hands are so fast that they're smoking. If I don't meet the standards, people in the group will tag me. I have to handle tens of thousands of orders a day..."
He shouldn't have relied on his good physical strength to fall into this public landmine.
Ge Jia was stunned when he heard this. Lu Rong patted his chest and said, "It's okay, it's okay. In comparison, accompanying tourists on a bungee jumping machine is nothing."
Netizens who saw the delayed footage of the actor's story and felt the same way stood up:
"I have a netizen in my weight loss group who had never been able to lose weight. Later, she worked as a courier sorter and lost 11 pounds in half a month. She said this was good because not only could she lose weight, but she could also get paid..."
"Me too, I had to load a truckload in one night, and only 160 a day, but I got a high fever the next day and spent 600 on treatment. (Dark Scream.jpg)"
"I still remember the pet snake you bought, Mr. Wang from Province S."
"That's nothing. When I was working there, someone in our district bought a house in PDD. It was my first time riding a forklift for delivery..."
"We worked in the dormitory to earn living expenses for one night. We were so tired that we lay in bed for a whole week."
"On my first day of delivery, I had a large washing machine on the fifth floor of a walk-up apartment! The person who carried it up to open the door was an auntie, who was confused. I called her and found out that it was her daughter who was giving her a present. The auntie didn't want me to carry it down."
"I used to suffer from insomnia, but after working in sorting, my insomnia was cured (狗头.jpg)"
Hang Yan could no longer maintain his image as a male god. He sat there in autism, counting on his fingers with a look of despair: "Stone piers, wooden boats, barbells, motorcycles, reinforced concrete..."
"Then, Lao Hang, are you still going to work at night?" Ge Jia smacked his lips. Nowadays, the express delivery industry can really buy anything. qdd buys a house hahahaha "If I don't work, I won't get my morning salary." Hang Yan had a hard time. When he thought about the fact that he had several hours of work to go to, he felt terrible.
Although Emperor Hang’s experience was very miserable, why did I feel like laughing for no reason?
After listening to Hangyan's experience, Liang Yuan calmed down a lot. He patted Hangyan on the shoulder and comforted him: "It's okay, Lao Hang, aren't you losing weight for your next movie? This high-intensity work is just right for you."
Hang Yan: “…”
Lu Rong: “Puff——”
"Old Liang, how about you? You looked so grumpy when you walked over just now. What happened?" Ge Jiayi naturally also sensed the low pressure around Liang Yuan.
Speaking of this, Liang Yuan's temper flared up again, and he pointed angrily at the sky and the ground:
"The bar's resident singer is a scam. After I went there, he said that the resident singers were full and I could only be a substitute."
Ge Jia scratched his head and said, "Isn't it good to be a substitute? You don't have to play and you can still earn money."
"Let's not talk about the salary calculated by song. The manager said that I have good looks and I can go to the private room to exchange music insights with the guests..."
Liang Yuan almost swore. Doesn't this mean drinking with others?
Ge Jiayi made the same move as Lu Rong, covering his chest with his hands, with an expression of relief on his face. Although climbing stairs to deliver takeout was tiring, it was still a normal job after all.
"I disagreed, and then the manager asked me to do the job of a waiter. Not only did I have to clean, but I also had to make milk tea and serve dishes. I was responsible for 20 private rooms by myself, and they treated me like a beast of burden."
Liang Yuan’s eyes almost rolled up to the sky.
"How much do you get paid for working so hard?"
Ge Jia's words silenced Liang Yuangan.
Lu Rong coughed twice, drawing everyone's attention to himself:
"I found a daily rental house on the search app. It's only 16 yuan a day. What do you think? If everyone agrees, I can find an agent to view the house now."
"How much?! Sixteen? Isn't that only five or six hundred a month? Is this still the Magic City I know?" Ge Jia was stunned.
At this price, even if you live in a haunted house, you have to praise it for being lively...
"Maybe... it's relatively small..." Lu Rong frowned.
After hearing this, the Daisy Team members became excited. It didn’t matter if it was a small matter. They had slept at the airport for two days and were really fed up with this kind of life. At least they had a bed when renting a house, right?
