Chapter 79

"Hey, I think you are still recruiting people here?" He asked a little embarrassed.

"Yes, do you want to apply for a job?"

"What else do you need?"

Zhao Linger said: "We haven't recruited anyone yet, you can do whatever you want, as long as you have the ability."

The man became interested and said, "Why are you still recruiting the shopkeeper? Aren't you the shopkeeper?"

Zhao Linger shook her head and said, "I can't watch in the shop all the time."

The man said: "I... can I try?"

"Are you the shopkeeper?"

The man nodded and said: "I can bring back my original group of people, everyone is very attached to this place, and it's hard for them to find a job in the cold winter, so you can open up quickly. "

Zhao Linger thought about it, yes.

So he said: "Okay, you can try it. You will stay here from now on and be your shopkeeper. I will give you 10 taels of silver every month, and there will be a commission of [-]%. What do you think?"

The man smiled and said, "Yes. Can I stay in the shop for food and lodging recently?"

Zhao Linger nodded and said: "You are so dedicated, of course it's okay. Then I gave him the key to the store."

Zhao Ling'er guessed that he was probably very poor now, so she said, "Let me advance you five taels of silver as this month's salary!"

"This... I haven't started working yet..."

"It's okay, you take it first. Work hard, and our store will become more and more prosperous in the future!"

"By the way, what's your name?"

The man said: "My name is Wang Daoyuan."

Zhao Ling'er nodded: "Since you're here, let's work quickly."

"Hey. I'm going to find someone right now!" Wang Daoyuan took the banknote and left.

Ah Zhen walked over, watched Wang Daoyuan leave, and asked worriedly: "Young Mistress, he left just like that, aren't you afraid that he will take your money and run away?"

Zhao Linger shook her head and said, "I've seen him before, so he probably won't run away. It doesn't matter if he runs away, at worst, I lost a few taels of silver, but he won't be able to get anything from me in the future."

After an afternoon of hard work, the three of them basically cleaned up and wiped the earthen stoves, dusty wooden buckets, water ladles, water tanks, etc. that should be cleaned and wiped in the back kitchen. , but there are still many places that have not been cleaned up, such as the toilet at the back, the weeds in the yard, the ash in the corner... There is no decent big broom, and the few of them have no time to buy it.

Seeing that it was getting dark, the three of them were so tired that their backs ached.

"Young Mistress, the one surnamed Wang hasn't come back yet, should we wait for him?" Ah Zhen asked.

Zhao Linger looked at the sky and said: "Don't wait, let's go back."

The three of them didn't say anything, and went back home in a carriage.

The next morning, Zhao Linger brought A Zhen and A Ke to the shop again.

I saw Wang Daoyuan leading five people cleaning the store.

As soon as Zhao Ling'er came down, Wang Daoyuan led someone out to greet him, and said: "Yesterday I went to look for them, and when I came back, it was already dark. I saw that you all left, so I didn't look for you."

Zhao Linger said: "It's okay, I trust you."

Zhao Ling'er walked into the backyard, only to see that the weeds in the yard had been removed, and the ground was also cleaned.

I walked into the toilet and saw that both sides were cleaned up.

The tank is filled with water.

This Wang Daoyuan is quite discerning.

Wang Daoyuan said: "Miss Ling'er, don't do anything, leave the rest to us."

Zhao Linger said: "How many people are we short of now?"

Shopkeeper Wang said: "Now...we already have two cooks, two waiters, and a handyman. We still need an accountant, a waiter, and a dishwasher."

Zhao Linger nodded and said, "Here is also a recruitment notice. Since you are the shopkeeper, you will be in charge of all matters in the store. I request that the store will open in a week. Can you handle it well?"

As he spoke, he took out a 100 tael bank note and handed it to shopkeeper Wang, saying: "Every expense must be recorded clearly and there must be a voucher. Come to Su Manor every morning before nine o'clock to report the work situation to me."

Shopkeeper Wang nodded.

I didn't expect this matter to progress so quickly, it seems that there is nothing to worry about!

Zhao Linger returned home and hurriedly continued to write "Journey to the West". Once the hot pot restaurant opened, she probably would not have time to write these things.

For the next week, every morning when Zhao Linger woke up, she would dive straight into the study and rush to finish the novel. The more she wrote to the end, the more she admired Tang Seng. Moved, every time he has to be eaten by goblins, but he still wholeheartedly wants to learn from the scriptures.This feeling of being single-minded and single-minded towards a goal is really good!

Zhao Linger gave Zhou You all the manuscripts of "Journey to the West", which was enough for him for a while, and there were manuscripts from Liu Wenjie, Zhou You and others every month. Zhou You's bookstore should have a good business.

After dealing with these trivial matters, the next step is to concentrate on running the hot pot restaurant.

Zhao Linger came to the hot pot restaurant and saw that shopkeeper Wang had already set up all the tables, chairs and benches, and a copper pot was placed on each table.

Zhao Ling'er walked over and saw that each copper pot could only hold one pot bottom, which... forgot to tell them in advance.

However, Lichao has no chili, and a pot without chili has no soul, and a pot bottom can be used for the time being.

After looking around, the big things have been arranged, and the missing things can't be found until the hot pot restaurant opens.

Today is November fourteenth.

Zhao Linger thought for a while, and said to shopkeeper Wang: "Prepare some dishes. Tomorrow, the employees of our store and some of my friends will come to try the dishes. The hot pot restaurant will officially open the day after tomorrow. Everything will be prepared in your name, and I will not show up." gone."

The second day is the day when the applicants meet.

Su Yi Ning had already made preparations. This time, he had to take the initiative. Whenever he came across a good article, he had to take the initiative to borrow and copy it. Only in this way could he continue to improve.

Zhao Ling'er told Li Heng yesterday and invited him to participate.

When they came to the Yingbin Building, there were more people than last time. They probably heard that Zhao Linger helped them publish a book. Everyone brought the manuscripts they wrote in the past, and they were waiting for an opportunity to ask Zhao Linger to have a look.

Li Heng also came.

Seeing Zhao Linger and Su Yining coming, he hurriedly walked towards them.

"I just watched from the sidelines, and I won't participate this time." Li Heng looked at the other people talking and laughing, and he said without confidence.

Zhao Ling'er smiled and said: "It's okay, it's not a formal exam in the first place, if you want to take it, you can take it, if you don't want to take it, it's okay to just listen on the sidelines."

Li Heng sat aside and listened to the others.

After a while, Mr. Zhu came over.

He said to everyone: "Young masters, how about we don't compare articles today, but Feihua Ling?"

"no problem!"

"Okay!"

"Come on! Flying flowers make me the best!"

Everyone agrees.

Mr. Zhu asked everyone to sit down and form a circle.

"I see it snowed the day before yesterday, how about we use the word 'snow' as the key word, and each write a five-character quatrain about snow?"
