migratory birds return to the forest

"Come on, the dishes are here, don't burn them, don't burn them!"

The waiter's voice was more than an octave higher than Xu Fei's, and Xu Fei's ambiguous teasing was completely suppressed.

The waiter put a few dishes on the table, then handed two bowls of rice to the two, and then left with the tray.

I have to say that Lin Minxuan's restaurant is not bad. Although the restaurant looks small and the price is affordable, the level of the dishes can be seen from the moment they are served.

Xu Fei sniffed the smell of food. Originally, he just listened to Li Ze's words and knew that Lin Min hadn't eaten yet, so he wanted to treat him to a meal, and by the way, he would increase the distance between the two of them, so he asked him out.

Now looking at the food in front of him, he really has some appetite.

"What did you just say?" Lin Min asked.

Xu Fei didn't repeat the sentence just now, but instead said, "Why don't you take me around?"

"I don't have time, you can find a local tour group."

Xu Fei laughed, "Let's eat first."

With that said, he handed the chopsticks to Lin Min.

Xu Fei eats faster and has a lot of appetite.

But he doesn't make people feel rude when he eats. On the contrary, watching him eat makes people feel that the food is delicious.

Xu Fei paid attention to Lin Min while eating.

Lin Min also looked gentle when he ate. He ate without making a sound, but his appetite was the standard for boys, not too small.

Xu Fei wasn't the kind of person who didn't eat or sleep, but sitting opposite Lin Min, he was brought quiet unconsciously.

When Lin Min ate with Xu Fei, he unconsciously was taken to eat more. When he put down his chopsticks, he rarely felt full.

After Xu Fei swept away the food, he also stopped.

The two sat face to face, Xu Fei poured a cup of tea for each of them again, he pondered for a moment, looked at Lin Min and asked, "Do you want to know why I often go to your shop?"

Lin Min looked over.

Xu Fei thought about it, and felt that his behavior during this period was quite suspicious, especially since he still has a cropped hair, and it is unreasonable to always go to the barber shop in the name of washing his hair.

He smiled and asked, "Do you know that you have an advantage in appearance?"

Lin Min waited for him to continue talking.

"I want you to be my model."

"I do not……"

"Listen to me first, you don't need to do anything extra, as long as you allow me to take a camera and go to your barber shop to take pictures, I can guarantee that your photos and the photos of the barber shop will not be posted on the Internet without your permission. published in any channel."

"In exchange, I can cooperate with your barber shop's promotional work, take promotional photos for your barber shop, and I can also shoot some videos. What do you think?"

Lin Min asked: "Will it be published through any channels?"

"Well, it won't be released without permission, but I think if it's a reasonable request, you'll agree to it?"

Lin Min didn't agree immediately.

Xu Fei turned his head, "If you have any concerns, you can tell me."

"You..." Lin Min said your word, and then stopped.

"I have a few photos of you in my hand. I took them secretly before. I showed you two of them. What do you think of the photos I took?"

Xu Fei asked with a smile.

Lin Min also remembered the photo Xu Fei sent him when the two of them first added WeChat.

He didn't actually want to reject Xu Fei, but he just felt that it was unnecessary. If Xu Fei really wanted to shoot, he would not stop him, and he didn't think there was anything wrong with it.Such a formal proposal made him feel a little weird.

But he finally said, "Up to you."

After that, Xu Fei ran even more frequently in the store.

Xu Fei was also embarrassed to come empty-handed, and often brought some fruit and snacks over. After a few visits, he became familiar with everyone in the barber shop, and everyone in the shop gradually got used to Xu Fei's existence.

Li Ze is young and has a lively personality. He is mainly responsible for washing hair. He is the most active person in the store, and he is also responsible for the Douyin account in the store. Xu Fei has known him very well before.

Knowing that Xu Fei was the photographer his boss had 'invited' to help take photos and videos, he was the first to approach him and ask him to help take videos.

Although Xu Fei is not professional in shooting videos and portraits, but in the end technology and aesthetics are here. As the saying goes, he knows everything, and he can do anything. He quickly won the admiration of Li Ze, and Li Ze took one bite at a time. 'Brother Xu' has followed Xu Fei to learn things.

Zhou Yuan, the girl at the front desk who is usually in charge of cashier and consultation, is also responsible for the appointment arrangement of the barber shop's WeChat account and the operation of the WeChat official account.

In the past, she used to take a few random photos with her mobile phone for publicity. Now that Xu Fei came, she became familiar with Xu Fei not long ago, and came here from time to time to ask him for some photos for publicity.

Apart from taking pictures at the request of Li Ze and Zhou Yuan, Xu Fei focused his camera on Lin Min most of the time.

Surprisingly, Lin Min is more relaxed in front of the camera than Xu Fei imagined. He can basically pretend that the camera does not exist. laugh.

Compared with Lin Min's quietness, Yu Xing was having a good chat with the client.

Apart from Lin Min, Li Ze and Zhou Yuan, the barbers Yu Xing, Tao Yuan and Chen Nan were the only ones in the barber shop.

Yu Xing is in his 30s and has worked as a hairdresser for many years. Now he is married and has children. He is the oldest in the barber shop. Xu Fei and others call him Brother Yu.

"Brother Yu is very talkative." Xu Fei smiled and said to Li Ze beside him.

Li Ze nodded, "Brother Yu and Tao Yuan are very talkative. In fact, most barbers are very good at chatting, mainly because of business needs. Especially for perm and dyeing, it may take two to three hours to make hair Time, sometimes two or three hours is not enough. At this time, if you let people sit and play with their mobile phones, they will inevitably feel bored, and it feels much better to chat with the barber."

Xu Fei nodded.

Li Ze motioned Xu Fei to look in Chen Nan's direction, "Chen Nan is cold-tempered and doesn't like to talk, but you see, he will still ask where he should ask, and he will try his best to communicate where he should communicate, and he will answer the guests' questions. , that’s how it’s done.”

Chen Nan is young, just about 20 years old, and he doesn't like to talk, but he is handsome and skilled, and many people come to him for a haircut.

The young girls who come to the store order more from Lin Min and Chen Nan, and the others basically don't pick anything, anyone can do their hair, because the usual busyness of several people is not much different.

Several people performed their duties, but the shop was orderly.

Xu Fei looked at Lin Min, "Your boss too?"

Li Ze smiled, "The boss is different from us. We have a fixed salary plus a commission, and the boss takes the big head. Let's just say, in addition to the fixed salary, the income between the shop and the barber is 3 to 7 cents." , The store gets 7% of the entire income, so the boss can just get a commission if he doesn’t work.”

"But there are too many people in the shop, and the three barbers are sometimes too busy if the boss doesn't come. Brother Lin will still come here from time to time."

Xu Fei asked with a smile, "What do you think of Brother Lin?"

"Very good." Li Ze said: "You may not know our business very well. Generally, there is no such thing as social security in our business, and there is no such thing as rest day. Many stores are unscrupulous, and the fixed salary is extremely low. , The income between the shop and the barber is still [-] to [-] percent."

"Brother Lin has given us social security. He said that this is covered, and that it is covered when we are sick. Besides, when the store is not busy, if anyone asks for leave, he is very easy to talk about. Basically, there is no time to be inaccurate. For holidays or something, as long as there are not many people in the store, he will let us go back early to spend the holidays with the family."

Xu Fei recalled that the first time he came to the barber shop, Lin Min was alone in the shop. At that time, he said that he would give the rest of the shop a holiday and go back for the holidays. It turned out that this was already a custom.

"Our fixed salary is considered high here. People in other stores also wanted to come here before, but the boss said that the store is small and there is not so much business, so they confiscated it."

"Actually, at the beginning, there were only two people in the store, the boss and Brother Yu. Later, there were more people, and Tao Yuan was enough... Chen Nan, hey, the boss also took Chen Nan to be pitiful, so he took him in. down."

"As you can see, Chen Nan's temperament is actually not suitable for this job. Fortunately, he is good at craftsmanship, and his personality has softened a lot after a few months. When he first came, he didn't follow him for a month. The people in the store talk to him, and when the customer talks to him, he will only say 'hmm', you don't even know when he..."

Chen Nan seemed to have heard Li Ze talking about him, and glanced this way.

Li Ze was not afraid of him, and said with a smile, "I didn't say anything bad about you, but I just said you don't like to talk."

Xu Fei also smiled at him, he glanced this way, did not speak, and turned his gaze back.

Li Ze didn't continue talking about Chen Nan, and brought the topic back, "Actually, Brother Lin doesn't do haircuts himself, and he can support the store with only a commission, but without him, the store is sometimes too busy. A barber will cost more money, won't it..."

"Brother Lin's grandfather is not in good health. He takes medicine all the year round and has to go to the hospital from time to time. It costs a lot of money, so Brother Lin usually saves money."

"Does he live with grandpa?"

"Well, Brother Lin's parents died in an accident when he was young. He grew up with his grandparents. In the early years, his grandma also left, so he and his grandpa depended on each other for life. Anyway, it was quite hard."

"Hey, I don't want to say much about Brother Lin. You can ask him yourself when you have a chance in the future. Anyway, Brother Lin is a good person..."

Xu Fei looked in Lin Min's direction and remembered that when he asked him why he chose to open a barber shop, Lin Min said at that time that it was close to his home so that he could take care of his family. It seems that it was for the convenience of taking care of his grandfather.

There were fewer people in the store at the moment, Lin Min washed his hands after busy work, and sat on the sofa to rest.

Xu Fei sat beside Lin Min.

Lin Min thought he wanted to take pictures, and asked, "Do you need my cooperation?"

Xu Fei put the camera on one side of the table, "No, you rest, I won't take pictures today. Are you tired after standing for so long?"

"It's okay, I'm used to it."

"Boss Lin."

"Ok?"

"Brother Lin."

"Ah."

"elder brother."

Lin Min looked at Xu Fei.

Xu Fei smiled, "They all call you Brother Lin, I want to change the name, but calling you Brother Min seems a bit less meaningful, weird, can you call me Brother? I'm 29, I should be younger than you."

"up to you."

"elder brother."

silent.

"You said it was casual, why didn't you agree?"

Xu Fei smiled and called 'Brother' again.

Lin Min seemed to be tortured to no avail by him, and finally said: "Yes."
