impure

Zhu Zhu waved at Li Mu from a distance, Li Mu was slightly taken aback, "I don't recognize you at all."

Zhu Zhu usually doesn't wear makeup at work, but simply puts on lipstick. Although Li Mu doesn't understand, she clearly feels that Zhu Zhu is a little different today.

"Have you been here for a long time?" Li Mu sat down, the waiter handed over the menu, he glanced at the price, "I'll treat you."

"I asked you out, of course I came to invite you." Zhu Zhu ordered a drink and looked at Li Mu's straight back subconsciously, "Actually, you don't need to be too nervous, I just feel bored and want to chat with someone. "

Li Mu scratched his head, "Oh, let's talk."

Zhu Zhu let out a "puchi" laugh, "Li Mu, why don't I usually find you so funny."

When the other party said this, Li Mu felt even more reluctant to let go.This kind of situation seemed familiar, Li Mu knew that he was always liked by girls, and when girls expressed their love, they would exude a subtle aura.

"...Actually, Mr. Yue and the others are also very interesting." Li Mu subconsciously brought out Yue Renge, "I..."

Zhu Zhu sighed, "You really like this job, don't you? After finally resting, you mentioned them."

Upon hearing this, Li Mu was slightly taken aback, "Don't you like it?"

Zhu Zhu entered the industry earlier than him, with more experience and fewer mistakes at work.Even Liang Chuan, a miser who doesn't boast easily, will inevitably praise Zhu Zhu as the most potential bartender reserve he has seen in these years.

Li Mu also secretly set Zhu Zhu as his goal.In the short term, if he can reach Zhu Zhu's level, it will be quite remarkable.

But today, Zhu Zhu's delicately made-up face also showed a little tiredness.

"I like it, why don't I like it." She forced a smile, but that smile disappeared quickly, "It's because I like it, so sometimes I feel confused."

Li Mu's drink was also served.Subconsciously, he leaned back and stared at the girl's face.

"When did you get into bartending? Anyway, I sell wine at home." Zhu Zhu raised his head, as if he was looking at the sky, and seemed to be looking at a place that Li Mu couldn't see. "Everyone said that I should work in a wine-related industry." , I feel the same way myself.”

That's great, Li Mu thought, I'm the complete opposite of you.

"I studied hotel management in college," Zhu Zhu said, "I also worked in the food and beverage department of the hotel, and I also learned the knowledge of bartending systematically. It can even be said that I already know most of the things bartenders know. gone."

So what are you doing here?Li Mu thought.

"You must ask, since I've learned so much, what do I do in Dionysia?" Zhu Zhu smiled, "Do you know why I resigned from the last bar?"

Li Mu shook his head.He is not good at listening to other people's gossip.

"Because that store, in the name of cultivating bartenders, let the interns do odd jobs for a long time. I only learned to serve dishes there." Zhu Zhu took out a cigarette from somewhere, and asked Li Mu before lighting it up, "Do you mind?" Bar?"

Li Mu shook his head.

A very normal experience, Li Mu thought.

Probably all people with a high starting point have such distress.There are too many things to know, so it is easy to dismiss some small knowledge and gains, and even feel bored prematurely, which leads to the fact that it is easy to give up or leave prematurely.

Zhu Zhu's resume is much better than Li Mu's. Even if she "wasted time" in a bar and "served plates for three months", it is better than Li Mu's three-legged cat kung fu as a bartender for several months much.

"So you are worried that you are repeating the same mistakes in Dionysia?" Li Mu finished listening, and carefully concluded for her, "Is that so?"

Zhu Zhu smiled, "You are really smart, I heard that you have stayed in school."

"Listen to who said it." Li Mu felt a little unnatural, "It's all nonsense."

"Don't deny it." Zhu Zhu smiled. "High education is not a bad thing. Besides, you are so handsome, and there are too many people talking about you. It's just that everyone has done a good job of keeping secrets."

Li Mu didn't know how to refute, so he shrugged noncommittally.

"I'm just making complaints." Zhu Zhu leisurely blew out a string of smoke rings, squinted her eyes, and her tone became lazy, "I learned a lot here, but for me, it's still a good idea." not enough."

Li Mu knew that he and Zhu Zhu were two completely different types of people.

"Actually, sometimes I wonder if my goal is too high." Zhu Zhu said, "My goal is to be the keynote speaker at the age of 26, but I am 25 now." She shook her head , "There's not much time left to waste."

Li Mu wants to say that maybe you can live to be 96 years old, even if you are 36 years old, it is not too late to be the main tune.But he knew that a competitive man would not be content with such consolations.Even Li Mu himself was a little anxious.

If he just wasted his time like this, year after year, facing his family, what else would he have besides being unashamedly stubborn?

In the end, it was Zhu Zhu who rushed to pay the bill.Li Mu drank some wine and relaxed by himself.It was getting late, and he was already preparing for the day's work in Dionysia at this time, so he had no intention of admiring the scenery at all.

On the night of early spring in Huadu, a large expanse of crimson clouds gracefully spread over half of the sky.The gold-like twilight covered the earth, Li Mu watched the old tree sprout new shoots, and suddenly felt a little emotional.Not far away came the sound of ding ding dong dong music like spring water, he followed the sound and patted his shoulder with one hand.

"You kid has developed recently, thanks to my brother, I caught you today." Li Mu looked back, it was none other than Zhao Shengyan.The flowers are said to be small, and they are said to be as big as one-third of an acre of land. Before I knew it, they had all walked to the door of someone's shop.

Zhao Shengyan lost weight.With a shaved crew cut, the baby fat on his face has disappeared a lot, and the big gold chain around his neck is still a fixed match.Li Mu touched Zhao Shengyan's stomach with his elbow intimately, "Not bad, brother, did you lose weight recently?"

Zhao Shengyan laughed so hard that he couldn't see his eyes, "What kind of weight loss, I've been so busy recently, ouch, the meat is falling off slowly. Come here, come in and sit. If my mother is here, she must make pork belly for me."

"If you have meat, remember to call me." The image of pork belly immediately appeared in Li Mu's mind, and he swallowed reflexively.

Zhao Shengyan was annoyed and funny, and looked Li Mu up and down, "You have changed a lot recently. How are you doing over there? Liang...that boy Yue Renge treats you okay?"

Li Mu was dragged to sit down by Zhao Shengyan, and told Zhao Shengyan all about his experience during this period.

Li Mu has always been careful with others, except for Zhao Shengyan.He had known Zhao Shengyan when he was working in foreign bars, and it was Lao Zhao who officially led him to this road.It's a pity that Hualang has never been short of people, and Li Mu has a bit of arrogance. He feels that Hualang is more or less in Zhao Shengyan's favor. He has no experience, and he is sorry for Zhao Shengyan's salary, so he refuses .

Zhao Shengyan has a good temper, is loyal enough, has a wide network of contacts in the circle, and knows Li Mu's character.Young people, who doesn't have personality yet.In the spirit of a big brother taking care of a little brother, he introduced Basten and even other odd jobs to Li Mu these days.

After listening to Li Muxu's rambling, Zhao Shengyan nodded thoughtfully, "I know that Dionys has done a good job in cultivating people, but they don't recruit people according to the basics, which is what Yue Renge always does. I can't comment on the style. But," he blinked his smiling eyes, "do you really want to keep cleaning the dishes and cleaning the bottles?"

Li Mu was taken aback for a moment, not knowing where Zhao Shengyan came from.

"As far as I know, the training cycle of Dionysia is not short. You have to be patient and grind slowly. The introductory training lasts from two to three months, and then you can start practicing the basic skills. When you can really start mixing a simple cup of horse My God, it will probably be a year later." Zhao Shengyan seemed to know Dionys better than him, "By that time, do you still have this passion and enthusiasm?"

A thin layer of cold sweat broke out behind Li Mu's back when he heard it. If this is the case, Zhu Zhu's "26-year-old wish to be the main vocalist" is almost impossible.

Seeing that Li Mu's face changed slightly, Zhao Shengyan smiled with satisfaction, "How is it? Young man? Are you afraid?" Li Mu didn't know how to answer for a while, are you afraid?

Rather than being afraid, it is better to say that I am worried.

Taking an unusual path, how to take the next step, and what the future holds will bring countless challenges and worries.

"My brother is short of people recently. I think you are pretty good. How about it? Would you like to come over and help?" Zhao Shengyan put his arm around Li Mu's shoulder, "How much money do they give you, I will give you another two Thousands. Come or not, just a word.”

Li Mu went to Dionys an hour earlier.Liang Chuan gave him the key and asked Li Mu to come early to prepare.When pushing open the store door, Li Mu unconsciously took a deep breath. It was still a familiar smell, a smell he liked.

Liang Chuan recently began to let him work in the position of the bar equipment.After making some small mistakes, Li Mu gradually gained a sense of familiarity and control over the work, and the tacit understanding between them was much higher.After Li Mu went around the bar, the dim light of the ceiling lamp shone on his face. Wine bottles of various shapes stood neatly on the large shelf behind him. Li Mu took a bottle of wine down, it was vodka.

He began to wipe the bottle body gently, as if treating his lover.

Wiping the wine bottle is not because of cleanliness, but because of the worry that the dust that falls on the bottle cap and the bottle body will fall into the wine liquid with the opening of the bottle, causing pollution and affecting the flavor.Li Mu took this job very seriously. While wiping the wine bottle, he read its name in a low voice, and finally put the bottle upright, with the label facing the direction of the customer.

Li Mu knows exactly where the wine is placed and which wine is running out.

If the bar is the bartender's battlefield, then the wine is the bartender's weapon.He doesn't need to be proficient in all eighteen martial arts, but Li Mu understands that he must at least know where these weapons are.

He stood under the high wall, looking up at all kinds of fine wines, with his eyes closed, as if he was conducting a performance.

"Gin, rum, liqueur." Li Mu raised his arm and tapped a little in the void, "Tequila, vodka, plum wine."

Dionysus, give us the joy of the present.Because dreams are so far away, mortals dare not ask for extravagance.
