Chapter 946 Veteran Cadres with a Sense of Justice
Ye Ming's guess was correct: before he became a tour guide, the tour guide surnamed Ma was indeed a well-known gangster leader in N County. Later, according to his own words, he "changed his evil ways to do good, and the prodigal son turned back." ”, and turned to work as a tour guide.
However, as a "tour guide", he was only affiliated with a travel company, and his tour guide certificate was obtained through his friend at the tourism bureau. Therefore, he did not have any knowledge about tourism and was the kind of person who "only travels but does not travel". They are "black tour guides" who lead the way. Usually, they generally do not come out to pick up groups. However, if there is a holiday, especially the Golden Week, and many travel agencies are short of tour guides, they will take the opportunity to "come out" and take the initiative to receive some foreigners. Tour groups come to visit, and then use their methods to make money from those tourists, sometimes tens of thousands of dollars at a time, which is enough for him and his accomplices to live happily for a while.
Their method of blackmailing tourists is very simple: first, they use methods such as "descendants of bandits", "street brothers" and flashing knives to give passengers a warning, and then, in the name of inviting tourists to participate in so-called "self-funded projects", they They charge extra fees to everyone. Sometimes, this fee is ridiculously high. However, these tourists from other places are frightened by their power and are also afraid of being beaten and retaliated by them locally and suffer immediate losses. Therefore, most tourists will Choosing to listen to their arrangements and participate in their so-called "self-funded projects" in order to spend money to eliminate disasters...
Ye Ming had seen similar reports about "black tour guides" on the Internet, but he always felt that tour guides are also managed by tourism bureaus and travel companies, and have relevant systems and regulations, so they should not be as black as what is depicted on the Internet. , it is even less likely to threaten passengers. I didn’t expect that such a thing would really happen to me today.
So, he began to watch with cold eyes to see how the tour guide who called himself "the descendant of bandits" would perform the next scene.
After the horse guide waved the knife twice, he put it into the punching bag, then raised the horn again and started to get to the point: "Dear friends: As the saying goes, you can eat by relying on mountains and rivers. We in N County There are scenic spots and historic sites, folk culture, and beautiful mountains and rivers. However, the economy has never been developed. Our people are living a very hard life. They can only rely on the few tourism resources left by God to earn a living to support their families. And everyone here All of you here are big bosses and rich people who have free time to relax and spend money. Therefore, we each get what we need. We provide you with services and you create economic benefits for us, right?"
At this point, he paused, and then said: "It is actually very hard for us as tour guides and drivers, but no matter how hard we work, we must serve everyone well and provide everyone with more experiences in our northwest." Folk customs and opportunities to taste our Northwest specialties, right? Therefore, in addition to your scheduled itinerary, we have also added several very entertaining and meaningful self-funded projects for you. Among them, eating whole roasted meat Sheep, you can experience the cave life of the people in the northwest, and have special farmhouse banquets and other projects.
"Frankly speaking, my driver brother and I are entitled to commissions from these projects. If you sign up to participate, you can not only experience the fun of these projects, but also support my and my brother's work. Therefore, I would like to start here. To express my and my brother’s gratitude to everyone,”
As he said this, he bowed slightly to everyone and bowed to thank them.
At this time, many people in the car knew that he bowed to everyone as "a weasel giving New Year greetings to a chicken, and had no good intentions", so they ignored him. After he finished bowing, he started to talk to the old man who answered his question. Suddenly asked: "Director Ma, just tell me directly: How much does it cost for us to participate in your self-funded projects? There is no need to waste words here. If the price is acceptable to us, we will go and take a look with you. If it's too expensive, then I'm sorry, we have the right to refuse your unauthorized arrangements, and we also have the right to go to the tourism regulatory department to sue you,"
When the horse guide heard the old man's last words, he rolled his eyelids and gave him a fierce look. However, he did not get angry on the spot, but said: "We have three self-funded projects, each project costs 200 yuan, totaling 600 yuan." For one person, the price is not expensive, right? For 600 yuan, you can eat roasted whole lamb, live in a cave dwelling on a high loess slope, and eat northwest-style specialties at a farmhouse. What a deal, right?"
When some tourists heard that he had to charge an extra 600 yuan per person, and their tour fee this time was only 1,500 yuan per person, their faces changed color, and many people started shouting. Some people got angry and cursed the word "bandit" angrily.
Although the horse guide claimed to be a "descendant of bandits", when someone actually called him a bandit, he was not happy. He suddenly straightened his face and shouted angrily: "Who was calling me a bandit just now? Give me that." Stand up,"
The old man who questioned the tour guide at the beginning was probably a well-informed veteran cadre with a strong sense of justice. When the horse guide asked angrily who was scolding him, he replied: "I am scolding you. What's the matter, you are openly robbing passengers of their money, you are nothing but bandits. Besides, didn't you tell yourself that you are a descendant of bandits from the beginning? You are proud to be a descendant of bandits. I say you So what’s the matter with one sentence?”
Director Ma choked up and rolled his eyes at the words of this gray-haired veteran cadre. He wanted to find a few words to argue, but he couldn't think of an appropriate sentence for the moment.
So, he glared at the veteran cadre fiercely and said, "Old guy, I'm too lazy to argue with you now. I'll settle the score with you after I collect the money."
As he said that, he turned around and shouted to the driver: "Old Hei, stop the car. I'll pay the fee first. If you don't pay, get off the car now."
With this shout, the driver really stopped the tourist bus.
Everyone looked out the car window and saw that this place was in a canyon between two bare loess slopes. It was estimated that there were no homes within a dozen miles, and there were relatively few vehicles on this road. If you didn't get out, Qian was kicked out of the car by the tour guide and driver. No matter which way he went, he would probably have to walk for several hours to get to a populated place...
Ye Ming had been coldly observing the black tour guide acting. When the man who looked like a veteran cadre refuted the horse guide, he originally wanted to stand up and scold him, but Chen Mengqi saw that the man was carrying a knife, and In this unfamiliar place, she was afraid that Ye Ming would fight with the tour guide, and no matter who hurt whom, it would be a very troublesome matter. Therefore, she pulled Ye Ming's arm hard and stopped him. Stand up and scold the horse guide,
