Chapter 41: Open, Share, Eco-friendly, Safe!

Xu Mo probably also felt that the two of them wanted to poison him, so he treated them so coldly and harshly.

Anyway, if Xu Mo really drank the milk she brought home and got poisoned, then Xu Wanting couldn’t escape the connection either.

Thinking of this, Xu Wanting felt extremely desperate.

She used to be Xu Mo’s beloved elder sister, he had looked up to her so many times, thinking she was the most outstanding person in the world.

But such an elder sister, actually tried to poison him, Xu Mo probably couldn’t bear it no matter what.

No wonder he had been cursing the two of them all along.

…

Regardless of how Xu Wanting and the others felt, Xu Mo was very happy over there.

The driver’s license was easy to get, after a few tries, it was almost done, and the second part of the test was very simple.

After finishing their driving lessons, Xu Mo, Tang Lei, and others went to the East City Orphanage to deliver some food.

Today, there were some people from the orphanage, apparently doctors from certain hospitals, conducting some public welfare check-ups for the children at the orphanage.

When Xu Mo and Tang Lei, along with the other two, brought the items to the orphanage, it was bustling with activity.

Xu Mo looked up and saw a rather beautiful female doctor playing with several children.

He handed the purchased items to Zhao, the director of the orphanage, before leading the four of them back.

Five thousand bicycles were already in place, ready to continue the promotion tomorrow morning, and the fourth and fifth batches of bicycles were also on their way.

While they had some free time, Xu Mo and Tang Lei needed to retrieve the scattered shared bicycles to prevent them from being lost.

In the past few days, they had actually lost a few bicycles, with some people taking them home.

However, it wasn’t a significant issue, as the probability of loss wasn’t high.

Xu Mo’s operation was still very smooth.

Taking advantage of the fact that it wasn’t yet dark, Xu Mo and the other three had the driver start the car and began searching for the scattered bicycles.

These bicycles were placed in relatively remote locations, requiring some effort to find. Xu Mo estimated that he would need to hire some people to specifically collect and place these bicycles in the future.

The four of them searched continuously for over a dozen places and managed to retrieve more than twenty bicycles.

Since there were many locations to cover, the four temporarily split up to search. Xu Mo went alone to search for some near a hospital.

“Robbery! Help! Robbery!”

Just as he was collecting several bicycles, Xu Mo suddenly heard urgent shouts behind him. He looked up and saw a man and a woman running towards him.

It seemed that the man had snatched the woman’s bag, and he was running faster, already reaching this side.

The other woman was chasing after him from behind.

Seeing the man about to charge at him, Xu Mo acted swiftly. He gave a slight push to the bicycle in his hand, causing the man to collide with it and fall to the ground with a thud.

“Damn it!” The man was furious and quickly got up.

But Xu Mo had already wheeled the bicycle towards him and swung it at him. The man dared not block it and hastily dodged, crashing into a nearby tree.

“Damn!” The man was terrified, cursed, and hastily threw the bag on the ground before turning and fleeing.

Xu Mo noticed the knife in his hand but didn’t attempt to stop him. He quietly retrieved his bicycle.

“Thank you, thank you! Thank you so much!” The woman ran over, her face full of gratitude.

“No problem! Don’t mention it!” Xu Mo reached out to help her up another fallen bicycle.

“You, you’re the one who donated to the East City Orphanage?” The woman glanced at him, surprised.

Xu Mo glanced back at her, slightly taken aback.

This woman was the doctor who had gone to the East City Orphanage at noon to treat the children, probably there for charity medical work.

When Xu Mo and Tang Lei’s group went, they happened to encounter them.

However, they didn’t know each other and didn’t discuss anything. After Xu Mo delivered the items there and exchanged a few words with the director, they quickly left.

He hadn’t expected to encounter her here.

“You’re the doctor who volunteered there, right? We’ve met you! Thank you for providing medical care to those orphans!” Xu Mo said.

The female doctor’s face lit up as she heard, “It’s really you! No wonder you looked so familiar! You’re the orphan who came out of the orphanage, right? Oh, and… I think I’ve seen you on TV!”

“I did spend time in the orphanage!” Xu Mo didn’t elaborate much.

“You’re the top scorer, right? The top scorer in our Xiahai City’s college entrance examination!” The female doctor seemed to recall, suddenly realizing, “Director Zhao told us about it. There’s been talk about the top scorer from the East City Orphanage! It’s been all over the news lately!”

“What’s there to publicize about it?” Xu Mo remained calm.

“Of course, it’s worth publicizing! We’ve all heard about it. Otherwise, we wouldn’t have gone to the East City Orphanage for charity! Thank you for helping me retrieve my bag!” the female doctor said gratefully, smiling.

Seeing her politeness, Xu Mo smiled slightly, “I should thank you too! Those children in the orphanage are actually like my brothers and sisters!”

“No problem!” The female doctor seemed to be a cheerful person. “By the way, what are you doing? Why are you moving these bicycles?”

“This is a project we’re working on, trying to make some money!” Xu Mo shrugged and explained.

“Oh!”

The female doctor’s name was Jiang Pingting. Probably because she heard he was the top scorer, she was curious about him, so they chatted for a few more moments before parting ways.

There wasn’t much to talk about, just bicycles, the orphanage, and top scorer. Since they weren’t acquainted, they didn’t delve into many topics.

Xu Mo didn’t mind and quickly gathered the bicycles, loaded them onto the small truck, and transported them back.

Early the next morning, he and Tang Lei’s group set out again to distribute bicycles. This time, they needed to cover more locations, adding over thirty new spots.

Some hospitals, school entrances, and vegetable market entrances all needed arrangements.

As they worked, the concept of shared bicycles became increasingly accepted and discussed by more people.

“Advocating eco-friendly travel! A gift to the Earth!”

“Use as you go, anytime, anywhere! Making cycling easier!”

“Open, Share, Eco-friendly, Safe! low-carbon and emission-free transport, changing urban congestion, making cities better!”

The slogan was already being shouted by Xu Mo, while flyers continued to be distributed, with a noticeable increase in quantity.

With five thousand bicycles this time, covering a larger area, the scale effect was more pronounced.

Just on the first day of operation, Xu Mo’s user base had already increased to over eight hundred people, a growth rate that was pleasantly surprising.

Seeing this number, Gu Huanxi, Tang Lei, and the others were very excited, working even harder and with more passion.

“Eco-friendly travel, low-carbon and emission-free transport? Use as you go, anytime, anywhere, open, share, eco-friendly, safe”

“sharing?”

These days, Xu Mo had been distributing and collecting bicycles near the hospital, and he didn’t know where Jiang Pingting had appeared from. Xu Mo had encountered her a few times again.

As the saying goes, familiarity breeds fondness. It seemed that Jiang Pingting was interested in the shared bicycles, so she came over to inquire.

Xu Mo smiled, “This is the concept we’re promoting! It aims to address urban traffic congestion, promote eco-friendly travel, and encourage sharing!”

Jiang Pingting was somewhat moved, “Sharing?”

“Yes! Sharing. These bicycles are called shared bicycles! As long as you pay a deposit, you can use them!” Xu Mo explained with a smile. “Now, we have bicycles on several streets. We want to solve the problems of environmental pollution and traffic congestion!”

Upon hearing this, Jiang Pingting couldn’t help but admire him and immediately gave him a thumbs-up.

“Aren’t you afraid of them being stolen when you leave these bicycles on the streets?” she asked.

“I have some concerns, but it’s okay. People’s hearts aren’t that bad, and there aren’t many thieves! Even if we lose a few bicycles or a dozen, it’s not a big problem!” Xu Mo explained.

Jiang Pingting couldn’t help but admire him even more upon hearing this.

“You’re still in high school, right? How did you come up with this?” she asked.

Xu Mo smiled, “I think the concept of sharing is great. If everyone shares what they have, then the world will definitely become a better place! It doesn’t matter who I am, I just want to promote this idea!”

This statement impressed Jiang Pingting, and she smiled, “Are these bicycles all yours? Do you have your own company?”

“Yes, they’re all mine!” Xu Mo nodded with a smile. “Our company already has seven or eight people, and we’re still hiring! In the future, we plan to cover the entire Xiahai City with bicycles, to make the concept of sharing even more ingrained in people’s minds!”

Upon hearing this, Jiang Pingting was deeply moved. She stared at his bicycles for a while, her expression very complex.

However, she didn’t say much more and quickly went back to work.

The hospital where she worked was nearby.

Xu Mo had been there a few times and was quite familiar with it.

He paid no attention to her and continued to arrange his bicycles.

Time quietly passed, and in the blink of an eye, three days had gone by.

With the deployment of five thousand bicycles, the usage of the shared bicycles experienced a sudden surge. In just one day, the number of users who paid the deposit increased by over five hundred.

This number greatly excited the four of them.

“It’s time to expand! Let’s keep increasing!”

“Yes, yes, yes! Keep increasing!” The group exclaimed excitedly, eagerly awaiting the arrival of the third batch of ten thousand bicycles.

This time, they didn’t have to wait long. After just four days, the bicycles were delivered.

For this batch, Xu Mo hired three more people to help distribute and collect bicycles.

With the increased quantity, they were busier, and Xu Mo found himself needing to be more hands-on with many tasks.

Especially near the hospital, where there was a larger flow of people and more scattered bicycles, Xu Mo took charge of that area and needed to go there to collect them.

Today, while Xu Mo was collecting a few bicycles, he suddenly heard a shout from behind, “Xu Mo, what are you doing?”

Xu Mo glanced back, furrowing his brows.

“Ugh, why did I run into this trouble? What bad luck!”

He looked disdainful, lifted the bicycle, and turned to leave.

The woman was taken aback for a moment, then became furious. “Xu Mo, you stop right there!”

Who else could it be but Xu Shuying?

Her workplace was also nearby.

Naturally, Xu Mo ignored her, loaded the bicycles onto the truck, and had the driver leave.

“Xu Mo—” Xu Shuying stamped her foot, furious at being ignored!
