Chapter 166: A family must be neat and tidy; no one can be left out!

~15 min read 2,897 words

Zhou Yi actually heard most of what he knew about the law from Fang Dazhuang, so naturally, he did not understand the essence of the law.

But he knew one thing: Law without prohibition is permitted, but if there is a law, we must obey it!

And yet, the law stipulates that express delivery must be delivered to the door, but they don't deliver it, and they have so many excuses.

They even asked him to be understanding, to know that the delivery person works very hard.

What the hell isn't hard work? Oh right, as someone with a cheat code, he really isn't qualified to say that.

But setting him, Zhou Yi, aside, what kind of work isn't hard for wage earners? Is working through the night on construction not hard, or is writing code until you end up in the ICU not hard?

Everyone is working hard, so I understand you, but my understanding doesn't mean you can climb all over me!

It doesn't mean you can just kick the ball around casually.

Just then, his phone rang; he picked it up and saw it was an unknown number.

"Hello, who is this?"

Zhou Yi said casually, continuing his operations on the computer as he spoke.

"Zhou Yi, right? You filed a complaint against us, didn't you?"

Huh? Zhou Yi was a bit surprised. Did the complaint actually have an effect?

But why are you using such an angry tone, as if you want to eat me alive?

"Wait, tell me who you are first?"

"I'm from the Cainiao Station."

"Cainiao Station? I didn't file a complaint against you, why are you calling me?" Zhou Yi was quite puzzled.

His package was with Biantong Express, and the complaint was filed on the official website of Biantong Express.

Even if there was feedback, it should be the Biantong Express delivery person giving him feedback, why would it be someone from the station?

Although the boss of that Cainiao Station had a terrible attitude last time, Zhou Yi didn't think there was anything he could do at the time.

It turned out, unexpectedly, that it was the Cainiao Station looking for him!

"Don't worry about that, I'm just telling you to withdraw the complaint, otherwise, don't even think about receiving packages in the future."

What the hell is this? Zhou Yi was shocked.

"No, do you know what you're saying? Right now, it's you who won't deliver my package to the door, and you also said I could go ahead and complain, so I complained!"

"What, now you're coming to threaten me?"

"I'm not threatening you, I'm just telling you, don't complain at every little thing, it's meaningless, you know? We don't make much money to begin with, and now if we get fined, are you happy?"

"Anyway, think it over. If you don't withdraw it, don't think about receiving packages in the future. I've really never seen someone as troublesome as you!"

After meeting that guy who accused him of Money Laundering, Zhou Yi felt that there were still many reasonable people in this world.

The result was obvious; Zhou Yi felt like this person might be a bit abnormal. Doesn't he know I dare to complain?

Just like Liu Xu's parents, why do they always think it's someone else's fault?

Why did I complain? I couldn't possibly have complained indiscriminately.

And now you're trying to negotiate with me like this?

But thinking about it carefully, in the few months since he got the system, he seems to have met all the "maniacs" he hadn't seen in the previous twenty years...

Then it's fine; this station boss probably wouldn't even make the top five.

"That would be truly wonderful. I beg you, please don't ever deliver packages to me again, please, please remember that!"

Clack! Zhou Yi hung up the phone. Why waste breath? There was no need at all.

As for the express company, they were still like the dead, with no movement at all. Since that's the case, there's no need to be polite.

By now, Zhou Yi didn't want to understand the relationship between the delivery person and the Cainiao Station at all.

I bought the item, I spent the money, you didn't deliver it to me, whose fault is it!

No words needed, complain!

On the official website of the National Post Bureau, the content was already written, but Zhou Yi froze.

Because in front of him, the long-absent system son had produced three lines of text.

Speaking of which, this system son is also speechless; it works sometimes and doesn't others. He thought it would appear during the Elevator incident last time.

Never mind that for now, Zhou Yi quickly looked at the three lines of text.

Option 1: The delivery person didn't deliver to the door and had a terrible attitude; you must beat him up and let him know the power of the iron fist!

Option 2: Not delivering to the door is illegal; complain all the way to the National Post Bureau and fine the delivery person until he delivers to the door!

Option 3: Collect sufficient evidence; the delivery person must be fined, and the express company must be fined even more!

What the hell? Zhou Yi was stunned when he saw the second option. This second option was exactly what he was going to do before.

It turned out this time it was only the second one.

Then the third one, collect sufficient evidence, go after both of them—I know we have to go after both!

The express company's customer service is like they've gone missing; there's no response to complaints, and when problems arise, they only know how to fine, fine, fine!

But you should at least explain how to do it, this system grandson...

However, Zhou Yi didn't hesitate this time and chose three directly!

If you're going to do it, do it to both!

The delivery fee is low, so the delivery person doesn't want to deliver to the door. Although the law does stipulate it, I can understand that.

But you can't kick me around like a ball between you and the station.

And after I pointed out the problem and said I was going to complain, you were still so stubborn.

Simply put, not delivering to the door is understandable, but based on this attitude, I have to go after you.

But the express company...

Event started!

Event Name: Courier failing to deliver to the door

Event Requirements: Large parcels are not delivered to the door, and the attitude is poor; use legal means to have the courier side receive an education.

Current Event Progress: 0%

Use legal means?

Honestly, what is wrong with this system grandson this time? What kind of ideas are these? And legal means at that...

Look at my head; does this look like I know?

Unfortunately, the system provided no explanation, only a monotonous voice: One million has arrived in your Virtual Account.

Monotonous, too monotonous.

Sigh, I saw Fang Dazhuang's dark history last time, and I had originally planned not to meet for a while.

As it turns out, I didn't expect to have to call him again so soon.

It's not that he underestimates Zhou Xinran; in this situation, Zhou Yi naturally trusts Fang Dazhuang.

Taking out his phone, Zhou Yi dialed Fang Dazhuang's number.

In the office, Fang Dazhuang was still busy with his own affairs; the phone rang, and he simply said, "Xinran, whose call is it?"

"It's Zhou Yi's."

"Oh, put it through for me directly."

The call was connected quickly, still on speakerphone; Fang Dazhuang didn't stop his work and said, "Zhou Yi?"

"Okay!"

After saying that, he added, "Alright Xinran, hang up."

Zhou Xinran: "(O_O)?"

This was even shorter than what was said last time.

Honestly, Zhou Yi on the other end didn't seem to say anything at all; how could you two agree to go to Lao Difang just like that?

But looking at Fang Dazhuang's state, Zhou Xinran still wisely shut his mouth; don't ask, asking would only make him more confused.

Three fifty-eight in the afternoon, Lao Difang, same old time.

"Boss, the usual."

Two cups of coffee were brought over, steaming hot.

Zhou Yi wasn't worried that the coffee would get cold because Fang Dazhuang was an extremely punctual person, and he also hated it when others were late.

And Zhou Yi was even more of a person who disliked being late; he also detested matters of tardiness!

If no time was set, that would be one thing, but if a time is set and you don't show up when the time comes, don't say a word, and then stand there making excuses, that is just speechless.

Three fifty-nine, Fang Dazhuang walked into the coffee shop with Zhou Xinran.

He sat down without speaking first, took out his vinegar as usual, put it into the coffee, stirred it carefully, and only then took a delightful sip.

The young man next to him was a bit curious and said, "Hello, what did you add to that? It looks like it might be quite tasty."

To think I could find a kindred spirit!

Fang Dazhuang passed his vinegar over and said, "Authentic aged vinegar, how about it, do you want to try some? Let me tell you, the taste is wonderful..."

That sour smell came out, scaring the young man into retreating repeatedly.

"Sigh, no appreciation for it. Alright Zhou Yi, what matter did you call me here for today?" Fang Dazhuang laughed.

Zhou Yi hesitated for a moment and said, "This matter today is very special, Fang Dazhuang; I don't think you'll necessarily be able to give me an idea."

Sure enough, Fang Dazhuang bristled the moment he heard that.

"What? Zhou Yi, did you drink too much today? I can't give you an idea? Tell me, what is it, as long as it relates to the law!"

"I don't believe it; I can't have an idea?"

"Then I'm going to say it."

"Speak, why are you being so coy? That's not like you."

Zhou Yi cleared his throat and then said, "It's like this, Fang Dazhuang, I recently bought a large item, and then the courier wouldn't deliver it to my door and kept passing the buck."

"Then I complained to their Company, and they didn't pay me any mind..."

Zhou Yi explained the general situation and then said, "So Fang Dazhuang, tell me, what can be done!"

Before Fang Dazhuang could speak, Zhou Xinran on the side said curiously, "Mr. Zhou, you can go complain to the National Post Bureau."

"Complaints there are especially effective; as long as you complain, the courier who didn't deliver to your door will become especially diligent."

Zhou Yi shook his head and said, "Lawyer Zhou, of course I will go complain to the National Post Bureau, but that only targets the courier."

"But, it is indeed the courier's problem that they didn't deliver to your door; shouldn't it be targeted at him?" Zhou Xinran also said, feeling a bit puzzled.

"The law is stipulated that way!"

Zhou Yi shook his head and said, "You can't put it that way. Fang Dazhuang said last time that the law is a tool, but those who study law cannot lose their humanity."

"The courier Company also has a huge problem in this!"

At this, Zhou Xinran was a bit confused: "Mr. Zhou, are you planning to complain about the courier Company as well?"

"That makes no difference; no matter how you complain about the courier Company, it will eventually fall on the courier's head."

"So, isn't that why I came to find Fang Dazhuang? For simple matters, there's no need for that yet." Zhou Yi looked at Fang Dazhuang and smiled.

It is indeed like that; it just feels very frustrating. In order to seize the market, the courier Company has pushed prices to the extreme.

The result is that intense conflicts have erupted between couriers and customers.

"Zhou Yi, I understand what you mean." Fang Dazhuang laughed.

Zhou Xinran saw at this moment that his teacher's eyes seemed to be glowing again.

"In the courier industry, because the direct contact is the courier, any problems or anger will be vented on them."

"But the courier Company's behavior of malicious competition is the root cause!"

"Right, either don't do it, or do it thoroughly!"

Fang Dazhuang picked up his coffee, drinking while thinking about something, as if his mind had already wandered far away.

After a good while, he finally came back to his senses, looked at Zhou Yi, and smiled: "Actually, I won't hide it from you, Zhou Yi, I have been considering this problem for a long time."

"It is difficult, especially difficult, to make a Company feel uncomfortable, and our actions might even be a bit far-fetched in the eyes of the law, but there is still a way!"

Great!

Zhou Yi almost jumped up; he knew that the system-issued task must have a solution, but before Fang Dazhuang spoke, he was also very anxious.

"Lawyer Fang, what is the way?" Zhou Yi asked hurriedly.

"Zhou Yi, have you ever heard of the Anti-Unfair Competition Law?"

Fang Dazhuang asked in return.

Zhou Yi shook his head: "I have heard the name, but I don't know the specific content."

"Oh, this is actually simple; what we want to talk about is called False Propaganda!"

"In fact, both the Consumer Rights Protection Law and the Anti-Unfair Competition Law contain provisions regarding False Propaganda."

False Propaganda?

"Lawyer Fang, then in what way is this Company engaging in False Propaganda?"

Fang Dazhuang smiled upon hearing this: "They promise door-to-door delivery, but they don't do it; isn't that False Propaganda?"

The False Propaganda in the Anti-Unfair Competition Law is a regulation regarding products, but generally speaking, it can be extended to the scope of services.

"You, don't consider things like the Postal Law and the Express Delivery Management Regulations for now; just consider this, just think about whether the Company says it delivers to the door."

"And, whether the Company actually does it!"

Zhou Yi was a bit confused; he hadn't really seen the Company do any advertising in that regard.

It seems SF Express had?

That is unclear; after all, who would look at express delivery ads for no reason.

But they must have promised door-to-door delivery, right?

And as for door-to-door delivery, it seems that normally now, it's all left at courier stations or collection points, letting people pick it up themselves.

Wait, then this actually seems a bit interesting...

It just feels like two things that have nothing to do with each other were pulled together by Fang Dazhuang.

"Do you have a feeling for it now? It is certainly very far-fetched, but we are not the judges; what we need to do is report this unfair behavior of theirs!"

Zhou Yi had already understood, and then asked curiously: "But Lawyer Fang, how do we get the evidence?"

"The promise and propaganda part is easy to handle; we should be able to find some things from the past few years, but, but in reality, it's not easy to get."

"If it's just that I wasn't provided door-to-door delivery, they can directly say it's the courier's problem."

"That's right, I never thought that one incident would be enough to do anything."

"Zhou Yi, do you know how many Cainiao courier stations and how many collection points there are in Jingzhou?"

Zhou Yi shook his head: "Lawyer Fang, do you know?"

"Then I certainly don't know; I am a Lawyer, not a mage."

Seeing Zhou Yi pout, Fang Dazhuang immediately smiled: "However, we can go investigate and collect this evidence."

After a pause, Fang Dazhuang looked out the window: "One place not providing door-to-door delivery is a courier's problem, but what about an entire region?"

"If all places have defaulted to not delivering to the door, defaulting to leaving it at collection points and courier stations, and even when the customer chooses not to leave it at a station, they still leave it at a station, then on what grounds can they still say they deliver to the door?"

"Just because in some places it is delivered to the door after various operations by the customer?"

Zhou Yi's eyes also began to brighten; speaking of which, this is the individual behavior of couriers because everyone earns too little.

However, when everyone does it this way, it seems like something is wrong; it cannot be taken for granted!

Otherwise, what is the law for?

"So, consider this very far-fetched method; if you really want to do it, even if it's just the Jingzhou region, the evidence we need to collect will be quite a lot..."

Zhou Xinran was completely stunned listening to the two's conversation; what is this for, so much evidence, how much would it cost.

Just to make oneself feel comfortable?

The update is here. Some people say that friend is the real person, but he is not. How could he compare to Lawyer Fang? The novels he secretly read in class back then were found by me. Everyone, just take a look, and professionals, please go easy on the criticism; after all, what we want is satisfaction. Let's do 8,000 words today. See you all tomorrow.
