What was the courier brother like in ancient times, and how was the income?

The biggest advantage of modernization is express delivery, from the very beginning to the present, the development time is not very long, but not only the express itself is fast, its development speed is also very fast. Because the items delivered are very valuable, the responsibility of the courier is also very heavy.

In ancient times, there was a physical transmission for a long time, but at that time, most of them were piggybacking, such as helping the Zhang family send a letter today, and helping the Li family run an errand tomorrow to earn a little money to supplement the family, but the distance of the transmission will not be too far, and the means of transportation still rely on people's legs, and it is impossible to talk about fast. Later, the express delivery required fast, and the horse passed on became the fastest way at that time, if the distance was close, it was used to ride alone, and if the distance was long, it was considered to relay. People slowly have a fast and slow distinction on express delivery, if the ordinary items have no requirements for the delivery time, just so that the middle will not leak or drop the package, they have thought of a lot of ways.

Some will also choose the way of flying pigeons. At the same time, it also puts forward the requirements for the delivery person, that is, the old, weak and dishonest people cannot be the delivery person.

After a period of time, the express delivery industry had further development, requiring that goods must be transported by couriers on horseback. In ancient times, the courier often rested on the horse and the person did not rest, if after arriving at a post station, the teleporter ate some food and drank some water, and often did not even have time to wash his face, so he had to change to a horse with good foot strength to continue the journey. Some items need to be delivered in a hurry, and the teleporter will rush overnight, and some will faint from exhaustion after delivering the items to the place.

In order to better protect the express goods, they put the items in three layers inside and three layers outside, and stamped with seals, mud and seals.

In ancient times, couriers were mainly served by royalty and dignitaries. The official express only delivers the items of the imperial court, and is rarely open to the people, and later there are private express companies, which is what we call the dart game. These darts must all have martial arts, and their brains must turn faster when encountering things, and their mouths must also be able to speak.

Because the items delivered are very valuable, the responsibility of the courier is also very heavy.

The ancient courier brother is the post station and the dart bureau of the practitioners, the post station mainly delivers official documents and receives the past**, the dart bureau is an armed escort item, the income is similar to the current express delivery, that is, the middle income of the society.

During the Xia Shang period, the physical delivery has been, most of them are piggybacking, making a little money to supplement the family, the Spring and Autumn Period, the express delivery requirements are fast, "horse biography" is the fastest way, in ancient times, it is not easy to find an errand for express delivery.

Sending letters may be the "ancestor" of the courier industry. The earliest belief in sending letters in China was in the Shang Dynasty. The income should be good, but it's just too hard and you have to travel long distances.

In ancient times, express delivery was mainly a dart game. Before the emergence of the dart game, the express delivery industry in ancient China was mainly monopolized by the government. The income is still good.

In ancient times, the courier brother was generally from the dart bureau or post station, which was actually similar to now, but in ancient times, it was monopolized by the government.

The ancient courier was very hard, because the traffic was very inconvenient at that time, generally on foot or on horseback, encountering all kinds of bad weather, it was more difficult to walk, the modern courier had a car, the road is a highway, very convenient.

Before the emergence of the dart game, the express delivery industry in ancient China was mainly monopolized by the government. In ancient times, the "post post" was mainly used for the transmission of government orders and military information. After the dart bureau was produced, it became the main express delivery method, but the express brother itself is very demanding, martial arts and connections, there is a certain income, but it is very tiring and risky.

In ancient times, the courier brother was generally a staff member of the dart bureau, and his income should be quite high, but in ancient times, it was more dangerous, and it was very risky to send darts.

Yes, the ancient courier was the dart master of the dart bureau and the messenger of the post station, and these two professions are the identity of the courier today.

The earliest "couriers" in ancient times were often seen on TV, the emperor used 800 miles to expedit, and used horseback to deliver letters and the like. Behind it is the dart board that can often be seen in the costume TV series, which is responsible for escorting some things, so that private individuals can also hire dart boards.

In ancient times, there were also "couriers". However, in ancient times, they were not called couriers, but postmen and postmen, who were responsible for helping people deliver letters and goods.

The largest express delivery industry in ancient times was the post system, which worked well from the pre-Qin period until the end of the Qing Dynasty.

Confucius said: "The popularity of Lourdes is faster than the delivery of mail." It means that the popularity of virtue is faster than the delivery of news by the post station. The place here is the post station where documents are delivered in the spring and autumn period.

According to the record of "Han Feizi", it is placed as fifty miles, and the distance is shortened to thirty miles in the Qin and Han dynasties, and there is a pavilion in ten miles under it, and a post in five miles, and there is a passing house, which can be accommodated, which is the earliest guest house. The "bus" in the book on the bus at the end of the Qing Dynasty is actually an allusion, referring to the "bus Sima Ling" who was specially responsible for escorting talents from the local area to the first when the Han Dynasty raised filial piety.

This system is very efficient, it is said that during the Han Dynasty, Kumon traveled 400 miles a day from the "Golden City" in the northwest of Yongjing in Gansu Province to Chang'an City, and it only took seven days to go back and forth.

In the Tang Dynasty, there were 1,643 post stations, and the postal reception function was combined into one, in addition to private hotels, and also operated warehouses, which can be understood as a logistics transfer station. Li Bai's "Spring Night Banquet Peach and Li Garden Preface" said, "The man who is the husband of heaven and earth, the reverse journey of all things", the reverse journey here is the hotel, because the post station is an official institution, and there is no post ticket (letter of introduction) that is not accepted, so for a prodigal son like Li Bai, the reverse journey is very important.

Before the Song Dynasty, civilians were responsible for post delivery, and Song Taizu Jianlong ordered in the second year to replace the people with soldiers as servants, exempting the people from a conscription. The post coupons of the Song Dynasty were called "Walking Horse Heads", which were issued by the Privy Council. Takeaway is also the first to be recorded in the Song Dynasty, at that time, the main store, foot shop and other shops specializing in food and drink, there are guys in charge of delivery, customers or go to the teahouse or to the green building, just write a note.

In the Song Dynasty, the functions of the guest house and the post office were separated, the guest house was called the post house, and the post office was called the delivery shop. In Qin Guan's "Tasha Xing Chenzhou Hostel", "it can be a lonely hall closed in spring", refers to the post house. The post house also has the functions of an office such as the Beijing Office, and because it has to be received, it is very rich, the post house in Jinguo is quite luxurious, Fan Chengda has lived, and he has eaten pears, chestnuts, and foreign wine there, and he is very excited.

The post delivery system of the Qing Dynasty consisted of six kinds of organizations: post, station, pond, platform, office, and shop, collectively referred to as the post station. The speed of post delivery reached 600 miles a day, but the number of post stations was not much more than that of the Tang Dynasty, which relied on the 40,000 soldiers who were busy day and night. During the Xianfeng period, Feng Guifen proposed the establishment of a post office.

In 1913, Beiyang ** announced the abolition of the national post station, and this system came to an end.

The standard for many people to find a job is how much the salary is, and now the express delivery industry is very developed, and more and more people are engaged in this job, so what is the salary of the express brother?

When it comes to express delivery, the best treatment should be Jingdong and SF, as for the other Zhongtong, Yuantong, Yunda, etc., the salary is about the same, so why is Jingdong and SF good?

Let's talk about Jingdong Express first,Jingdong Express things are delivered to the door,Unlike other express delivery,There will be a special express station,To go over to pick it up,Liu Qiangdong, the boss of Jingdong, once promised to sell cheap houses to employees,Including overtime pay,Various benefits for meals,Even promise to raise wages,Plus year-end bonus or something,If you work hard, you can get five or six thousand a month, and a very small number of courier brothers have also got more than 10,000.

And SF Express's salary is even higher than JD.com'sOrdinary employees can get a salary of 4000 5000, and even higher ones can get 7000 8000, and they can get more than 10,000 if they have a good relationship with the leader for a long timeSimilarly, SF Express is also the most demanding, they pursue timeliness, and now there are special planes to transport express delivery, I have to admit that SF Express is the boss of the express delivery industry, and express delivery is fast. And the punishment for courier problems is also very serious.

There is also a courier that has to be mentioned, that is, EMS, I don't know if you have found it, the admission notice is all with EMS, because at present, there is only EMS in China, no matter how remote the area, as long as it is in China, it can be delivered, and it must be signed in person. But the salary is a bit low compared to other couriers, with 52% of courier brothers earning between 2000 and 4000But they are the most tired.

The salary of the courier brother is the basic salary plus commission, and some companies will also have benefits, such as ** fee and fuel subsidyBut once there is a problem with the express or it is complained, it is also very serious. I hope that the salary of the courier brother will be higher and higher.

For a period of time, copy, the news reported from time to time that the courier brother earned more than 10,000 yuan in a month.

du, causing the whole network to watch, making everyone think that the fast delivery brother has entered the high-income class dao. Is this the case? What is the real income of the courier brother?

In reality, there are indeed some courier brothers who earn tens of thousands, or even 20,000 yuan a month. But this is a very individual case, according to statistics, the courier brother who can earn more than 8000 a month accounts for 1% of the total number of courier brothers, and the proportion is very low.

That is to say, we have entered the misunderstanding of generalizing from partial to partial and point-by-point generalizations, ignoring the truth behind statistics. In fact, most couriers have a monthly income of 3,000 to 6,000, and about 70% of them are between 4,000 and 5,000.

The real income of the courier brother is not high, and almost all of their income depends on time, physical strength, and sweat. Many people think that 6,000 is not a lot, but in fact, his hourly salary is not as good as the 3,000 of an office clerk. The courier brother is often 8 in the morning and 8 in the evening, 30 days a day, much harder than what 996, 6000 yuan monthly salary is converted into their hourly salary is yuan.

The hourly wage of $3,000 for office clerks is divided by 22 divided by 8).

So in general, the real income of the courier brother is not high, and all he earns is hard-earned money.

Now we all say that the courier is very profitable, and it is often reported that this courier earns tens of thousands of dollars a month, and another courier earns 20,000 yuan a month, making it seem as if the courier is really profitable. However, it is not representative to report only one or two couriers, and data is still needed to speak.

Now for the salary of couriers, we all think that SF Express has a high income, and Liu Qiangdong, the boss of JD couriers, also said that it is more than 50% higher than that of peers. However, many people don't believe in such a statement, thinking that the salary of JD couriers is not too high, and it is true that the benefits are good.

However, judging from the statistics of the express delivery industry, everyone knows how difficult it is for couriers. According to the data, 90% of the current courier workers are men, and the other 10% are women. Many people may say that they can't see female couriers, that's because these female employees may be doing logistics work, not delivering couriers on the front line, so the real female couriers may only be less than 5%.

As for wages, the largest proportion is 3000-5000 yuan, nearly 7 percent of the courier's salary is in this range, it can be seen that the current courier salary is really not high, at least most of the courier's salary is below 5000 yuan, that is, a very ordinary job, nothing worth hyping every day.

Of course, there are also some couriers who really earn tens of thousands of dollars a month, and 10% of the couriers' income has reached more than 8,000, and I believe that the majority of the couriers have an income of 8,000-10,000 yuan, and the real monthly salary of tens of thousands is about 2%.

So don't believe the news that you can earn tens of thousands of dollars a month as a courier, maybe behind it is the harvest that the courier has worked hard for several years, but it is not as easy as everyone imagined.

Of course, I believe that the number of SF Express and JD couriers with high salaries is still relatively large, after all, the platform is better, and the starting point is relatively high, and you may earn 5,000 yuan on a small platform, but you can get so much when you just join SF, this is the power of the platform.

In short, it is not easy for couriers to make money, there is no high salary as everyone imagined, and there is no need for everyone to give up other jobs to be couriers.

Because the entry threshold for the express delivery industry is extremely low, many people choose to engage in express delivery.

With the continuous development of the express delivery industry business in our country in recent years, more and more people have begun to engage in express delivery business and work. The main reason why express delivery work has become a popular profession is that the profession has very low requirements for employees, and people with any educational background can work in the express delivery industry. However, not everyone is able to make money in the courier job.

Because the amount of money you make in the job of express delivery is directly related to the prosperity of the city and the busyness of the work.

First, the express delivery work is mainly based on piecework wages. If the courier wants to make more money, he must deliver more couriers, because the piecework wage in the express delivery industry is calculated based on the delivery volume of the express. Therefore, when the courier is engaged in the express work, there will always be a sense of busyness and fulfillmentAnd this kind of busyness and fulfillment can make couriers earn a lot of money, so there will be many people engaged in courier work.

Second, the lack of academic requirements is one of the main factors for express delivery jobs to become a popular industry. There are still quite a lot of people who do not have a high degree of education, so these people who do not have a high degree of education will always not have much competitive advantage when submitting their resumes, and the work in the express delivery industry is as long as they are willing to work hard to earn moneyIt will not be lower than those with high academic qualifications. Therefore, express delivery work also satisfies the pursuit of high wages for a considerable number of people who do not have a high degree of education.

3. Express delivery work can enhance one's ability to communicate with others. Although many people say that express delivery work is very boring and tiring, there are still a considerable number of people who hope to enhance their communication level through express delivery work. Because there are many college students who want to increase their work experience through a suitable job before entering the society, and the job of courier is perfect for college students.

Of course, don't exaggerate the real salary level of couriers, because this will make everyone have a lot of doubts about the courier work. Courier work can only be fruitful through hard work, of course, any job is also applicable to this principle.
