Chapter 487: Whose life is this again?

~9 min read 1,649 words

"Lin Li, don't treat people differently so obviously next time."

After the female passenger was delivered to her destination, Du Zhuo looked at Lin Li helplessly and amusedly, sighed, and sighed:

"If a passenger with many eyes remembers my license plate number and reports it, and a hat of discriminating against customers is put on me, I will be fined at least two hundred, and maybe I will have to write a review and post it in the company."

Last time I picked up a passenger surnamed An, he had many eyes.

Fortunately, that time, passenger An didn't place the order. He kept lying in the hearse without speaking. He was very cold and a bit unsociable, but at least the good news was that he couldn't give a bad review.

"Brother Du, don't worry, this is my professional counterpart. I have a lot of funds, and I have rich experience in writing reviews. What's more coincident is that I just finished a thousand-word review today, and my hand is hot now. Do you need me to write a spare one for you now?"

Lin Li's eyes lit up.

Du Zhuo: "(;o_o)?"

Hey, you kid is really impervious to oil and salt, right.

This thing can also be hot.

What exactly are you looking forward to in your eyes!

As expected of doing scientific research, the brain circuit is really different from normal people.

Seeing Du Zhuo's mouth twitching, Lin Li smiled and finally said something more human:

"Don't worry, Brother Du, I know, I won't discriminate against these 'non-sample range passengers' later, at least not so obviously."

"That's good." Du Zhuo nodded, then thought of Lin Li's purpose, and cared:

"I saw that you didn't talk to the passengers just now. Did you really collect the data you needed?"

Lin Li's initial screening was successful. Du Zhuo was ultimately a relatively honest person.

Because he saw that Lin Li hadn't opened his mouth all the way, he thought Lin Li was a bit shy and at a loss, not knowing how to communicate with passengers, so he took the initiative to chat with the passengers a few times. The content of the chat was actually what he would occasionally chat with passengers when driving on weekdays, hoping to help Lin Li.

Mainly because he received too much money.

If Lin Li didn't have a harvest, he would feel a bit guilty for taking the money, a bit uneasy.

"Don't worry, Brother Du, I have it. What I need is this kind of experience. I have actually been observing and recording data all the time. Many times, I don't need to speak." Lin Li smiled and nodded when he heard this, comforting him.

Lin Li's smile was sincere.

The change in mission progress proved that this operation of his was completely feasible.

Next, he just needs to continue picking up passengers.

If the distance of a single order is short, it actually only takes ten minutes. If the speed is fast, he can complete this mission directly tonight, and there is no need to take risks on the bar street later.

And seeing Lin Li's expression satisfied, and not "fake sun"—the current sunshine didn't look like a disguise, Du Zhuo was relieved.

In this way, the money was taken with peace of mind.

"Brother Du, where is it suitable to wait for guests now?"

The current parking position can only be parked temporarily, so Lin Li started the car and asked the old driver about this point.

"If you want to wait for guests to pick up orders, there are actually not many points in the whole Xiling to wait."

"There are only three points: Nansang Station, the bus passenger transport center, and Dagou Bridge, but they are actually not easy to wait for." Du Zhuo popularized science for Lin Li,

"In the past, when running a taxi, I could often see passengers stopping or waiting for a car on the side of the road, but now they are almost gone. Now they are all engaged in ride-hailing, and our taxis can't avoid it."

"Usually, besides waiting for guests at the station when there are many people, like just now, at other times, I take orders online. This is also the bulk of taxis now, which is unavoidable."

"Now the car is in your hands, how to choose, it depends on you. If you want to wait, go to Dagou Bridge or the station."

After listening to Du Zhuo's introduction, Lin Li nodded in realization.

Indeed, in fact, he couldn't remember the last time he took a taxi.

It seemed to be when he was a child. At that time, the taxi still had a smell of leather and perfume, and it was stuffy. People felt a bit dizzy when they sat on it, and it was extremely easy to get motion sickness.

"Can the order-taking platform see the gender of the customer?" Lin Li asked immediately.

"In order to protect privacy, there is definitely no specific gender. After all, the gender issue is so serious now. Some time ago, someone asked to change 'Angry Birds' to 'Happy Big B'. If we can filter this, we still hope to avoid female orders as much as possible, especially at night."

Du Zhuo shook his head, his face looking a bit palpitating and fearful, as if people around him had encountered some bad treatment, but he didn't elaborate, and continued to introduce to Lin Li:

"But if you have to investigate carefully, some customers will have very feminine nicknames and avatars. Through this, you can see the gender from a certain angle."

Du Zhuo poured another basin of cold water with a fast speaking speed:

"But this method is not easy to use. First, the accuracy is not high. Many people's nicknames and avatars are the system default. Sometimes girls will deliberately set unconventional avatars and nicknames out of consideration for identity information."

"Second, it is too late to use this method to distinguish."

"Because there are two modes of order taking, one is manual order grabbing, which is simple, that is, manual, but this is very difficult to grab. Most orders will be prioritized to cars that grab orders automatically."

"The second is automatic order grabbing. Although you can set certain filtering conditions for the system, such as our current situation with people in the front seat, only take carpooling orders or special discount orders for three people or less, but this absolutely does not include gender."

Seeing Lin Li thoughtful, Du Zhuo added:

"Although you can confirm information with passengers by phone to judge whether there are women, we cannot refuse to carry without reason. In automatic order-taking mode, frequently refusing orders based on picking orders will cause my account's order-taking rate and completion rate to drop sharply, and passenger ratings will also become lower."

"The platform will soon judge me as a low-quality driver and punish me—such as restricting order taking, lowering the priority of order dispatching, and even banning the account, which is not acceptable to me..."

After speaking, Du Zhuo looked at Lin Li, seemingly waiting for Lin Li's decision.

"Understood," Lin Li nodded, "Then let's take orders by software. Don't worry, Brother Du, even if I receive an order with only boys, I won't cancel it, I will complete the order content normally and send them to the destination."

"Thanks," Du Zhuo thanked with a bit of apology, and said seriously: "Like this, Lin Li, if you receive an order with only men, it won't count in the 400-per-hour subsidy, I feel embarrassed to receive this."

"I will also help you watch our car owner group. If there is an order that suits your conditions, I will see if I can help you take it over as soon as possible."

"Then I'll turn on order taking? I won't just take carpooling orders. Most passengers should not be full of four people before taking a taxi. We will call in advance to give a certain discount and compensation. Most of them are willing, and this money will be deducted from my income."

"Okay, but I will pay this money, thank you for your kindness, brother."

The luck at the beginning of tonight was not good. So far, six orders have been received, only two of which contain women.

Because there are relatively long-distance orders, and picking up and dropping off is one time each, it is already 8:30 now.

Strictly speaking, the efficiency is not as good as just waiting stupidly at the station. In the case of being able to filter passengers in both directions, how can two and a half hours not wait for two orders, and there is no need to run around.

But it makes no sense to regret now, there is no need to think about these.

Lin Li asked, Du Zhuo didn't plan to go home very early today, and he didn't resist accompanying Lin Li to run the night car.

Then the problem is not big.

Because even if it can't be completed tonight, it will definitely be completed early tomorrow morning.

"Thanks, Master, bye."

"Bye."

Arriving at the destination again, after the passenger politely thanked him, he got off the car.

And Du Zhuo, who had been slightly difficult to look at since just now, hurriedly said to Lin Li: "Lin Li, let's drive to the nearby public toilet first, my stomach is a bit uncomfortable."

Lin Li, who had actually noticed it just now, nodded and sighed with a smile:

"Fortunately, Brother, you held back just now, otherwise those passengers would have taken a ride, and then we would be embarrassed to charge." ===== CHAPTER 488 =====
