three days later.Ning City.

Ning City is a big city with some historical and cultural heritage, more prosperous and grand than Xingcheng, but it is far away from Xiaoqingshan, Ji Xiaoyu walked for three days to get there.

Although Xingcheng can be reached in one day, the hotel incident left a bad impression on Ji Xiaoyu.Besides, it has been half a year, the money he hid under the bed at the beginning must have been gone long ago, even if he came to ask for it, he would probably not come back, or he would be beaten up by the hotel, so he immediately ruled out this place and chose to Ning City, which is farther away.

There are more job opportunities in big cities, and they should earn more money. Ji Xiaoyu is quite confident about her future.

When he came out, he left a message on the stone wall in the nest, so that the old monkey would not be worried when he found out that he suddenly disappeared.

It happened to be evening after entering Ningcheng, and Ji Xiaoyu was standing on the street full of traffic and high-rise buildings with her little white egg in her pocket. Brilliant neon, like colored glass, radiates with brilliance.

Then there was a soft "gu" in his stomach, and Ji Xiaoyu couldn't help but frowned. The dry food he brought when he came out from Xiaoqingshan was finished at noon, and he was a little hungry at the moment.

Both sides of the main road are luxuriously decorated high-end shops, not to mention Ji Xiaoyu who doesn’t have half a dime in his pocket, even those who don’t have enough cash don’t have the confidence to go in, so he turned around and entered a row of buildings behind. On a small street called Screw Street, I plan to find a small restaurant to try my luck.

Thanks to her working experience in that hotel in Xingcheng last year, Ji Xiaoyu knows a little bit about everything, she can bring tea, water, wash dishes and sweep the floor, as long as she can solve the imminent problem of food and accommodation, she can do anything, and care about the rest.

There are all kinds of shops on Luoluo Street, selling milk tea, fruit, and squid. The street is bustling with people, and the popularity is more prosperous than that of the main street.Ji Xiaoyu walked and looked all the way, and soon found a small restaurant named "Old Li's Home Cooking". Although the decoration was old and the storefront was not spacious enough, the business was very hot. The two rows of tables and chairs in the store were full. There are still a few people waiting to be seated on the plastic stools outside the store. The food in this restaurant must taste good.

Ji Xiaoyu swallowed a mouthful of saliva, raised her foot and walked in.

This restaurant is small in size, with a total of forty square meters divided into two parts, the inside and the outside. There are six sets of simple tables and chairs in the large outside room, and a semi-open kitchen inside. A 50-[-]-year-old The man was cooking in an iron pan in full swing.

In the dining area outside, a girl in her twenties wearing a calico apron ran around to take orders for customers. Although the air conditioner was turned on in the store, she was still sweating from the work.Hearing "Welcome" from the automatic sensor doorbell at the door, the girl named Zhang Qiaoyan turned her head and looked over in the midst of her busy schedule. Her eyes lit up immediately, and she greeted her warmly, "What would you like to eat, little handsome guy?"

Before Ji Xiaoyu could answer, a man with a beer belly who was sitting by the door protested dissatisfiedly: "Hey, waiter, when did you become a spectator? This kid just came, but I I’ve been waiting for a long time, shouldn’t I say first come, first served!”

Zhang Qiaoyan also realized that she had made a mistake when she was stunned for a while, so she quickly apologized: "I'm sorry sir, I made a mistake, and it will be your turn next."

The beer belly glared at Ji Xiaoyu, and sat down angrily.

Ji Xiaoyu looked innocent.

Zhang Qiaoyan was a little bit sorry, so she comforted her: "Little handsome guy, just sit and wait for a while, there will be an empty seat soon."

Ji Xiaoyu scratched her head and asked, "Sister, I'm not here to eat, but to find a job. Do you still need waiters here?"

Zhang Qiaoyan's heart was full of joy when she called "Sister", and her face was a little red.At this time, there was a table customer calling for the check, and she also called out "coming", then wiped off her sweat and said helplessly: "I think it's necessary, but unfortunately I don't count. You can ask our boss, it's in the kitchen Old Li who cooks vegetables, you can just call him Uncle Li." After speaking, he ran to serve the customers.

Ji Xiaoyu leaned over to the dish delivery window in the kitchen and asked, "Uncle Li, do you still need staff here?"

The old range hood in the kitchen was roaring like a tractor. Li Defa was sweating all over his head and was so busy that he didn't even touch the floor. He didn't hear what he said clearly. He thought it was a door-to-door salesman, so he waved his hands impatiently: " Don't, don't make trouble with me!"

Ji Xiaoyu reluctantly took a look at the fragrant twice-cooked pork that was frying in his wok, inhaled the smell of meat twice, turned around and prepared to leave.

A landline on the window sill happened to rang, and the ringing sound was extremely piercing. Li Defa put the fried twice-cooked pork on the window sill, called "Qiaoyan answer the phone", and took a big drink from the big teapot on the table. .

Zhang Qiaoyan rushed over like burning her ass, picked up the receiver and said quickly: "Who is it?... Hongsheng Building, do you want two takeaways? I'm sorry, we are short of manpower today, and there is no one to deliver...Really, we are too busy... "

Li Defa quickly put down the tea mug and grabbed the phone: "I can deliver it! What do you want to eat? ... Oh, fish-flavored pork shreds and tea tree mushroom old duck soup, green pepper beef tenderloin and cordyceps flower ribs soup... Hongsheng Group Building A Room 1208, Miss Zhou? Okay, okay, it will be delivered in about half an hour!"

Li De put down the phone with a smile on his face, and then planned to start cooking.

Ji Xiaoyu had already reached the door, but her ears moved, and her footsteps stopped again.

Zhang Qiaoyan brought the twice-cooked pork to the table, and came back and complained: "Uncle Li, why did you agree, Qiangzi is not here today, who will deliver the takeaway?"

Li Defa blinked his small eyes, and then realized that his buddy Qiangzi's family was in a hurry, and he took leave this afternoon to go back to his hometown. Now there are only him and Zhang Qiaoyan in the store.And he was going to be in charge of cooking, and Zhang Qiaoyan was going to greet customers in the store, so there was really no one to deliver the food.

What can I do now, I have already promised the customer just now, the most important thing in doing business is to pay attention to credit, if it goes wrong this time, the loss will not only be the few tens of dollars.

Besides, Hongsheng Building is a high-end office building nearby. The headquarters of the famous Hongsheng Group in this city is stationed here. It has its own staff restaurant, and no one has ordered takeaway before.The person who called just now was a girl who needed to work overtime temporarily. She once took the takeaway menu from her own restaurant and planned to change it with the little sister who worked overtime together today.If this order can be followed up, there may be an additional group of customers with great potential, and the small restaurant of our own can also be upgraded to a higher level, but at the moment we can't deliver food, this road may be blocked...

The more Li Defa thought about it, the more his heart ached, and he said angrily: "When will Qiangzi, that bastard, go back? Why is he asking for leave at this juncture, and I will deduct half a month's salary when he comes back!"

"Qiangzi asked for leave because his mother had a sudden illness and needed to be taken care of, and he didn't miss work on purpose." Zhang Qiaoyan curled her lips and muttered in a low voice, "You don't want to recruit more people, and you are stingy when you start Meituan. They specialize in delivering food , it is convenient and trouble-free, and the cooperation does not cost too much money..."

"Qiaoyan, what did you say?"

"Uh, it's nothing. I just mean that we don't have enough manpower now. We really can't answer the order just now. Uncle Li, you'd better call and tell him."

"Oh, what a bad luck. Forget it, I'll hire someone tomorrow..."

Li De was about to dial the phone with a sad face, when suddenly a slender white hand covered the receiver: "Uncle Li, I'll deliver this takeaway, what do you think?"

Li Defa turned his head and saw a young man about 20 years old, with delicate features, red lips and white teeth. He looked very cheerful, like a student who was still studying. He was a little puzzled, "You send me? Who are you?"

Seeing that it was Ji Xiaoyu, Zhang Qiaoyan couldn't help but said happily: "Uncle Li, what a coincidence, this handsome young man just came to apply for the job as a waiter, why don't you ask him to send it for a while, as a trial!"

Li Defa was still a little hesitant. The young man hadn't figured out what was going on, so he was a little too fast.

Ji Xiaoyu immediately said earnestly: "Uncle Li, my name is Ji Xiaoyu. Don't worry, I have worked as a waiter in a hotel before, and I probably know the process well. Besides, I have fast legs, so I won't waste time on the road."

Whether it was Ji Xiaoyu's appearance or his words and demeanor, it was hard for people to refuse, Li Defa was immediately persuaded, "Okay, then you go and give it away!"

Such a clean and handsome young man, if you want to talk about pulling people to engage in pyramid schemes or fooling women's bad faces, it is possible. Anyway, he is not here to cheat two fast food, so just give it a try.

Boss Li didn't know that Ji Xiaoyu, who was starving, really thought about taking the takeaway and running away, filling his stomach first.It's just that it's not kind to do so, it's against his principle of being a pheasant spirit, and it would be embarrassing if it spreads out, so after thinking about it, he gave up the idea, decided to endure it a little longer, show a good performance, and take it upright This job.

The work of these few words has already been delayed for seven or eight minutes. Li Defa raced against time to turn on two stoves, showing his unique skill of stirring the spoon with his left and right hands at the same time, and prepared two dishes in 8 minutes.

Ji Xiaoyu had already taken a light green apron from the kitchen shelf with the words "Old Li's Home Cooking" printed on the chest and a little yellow chicken embroidered underneath, and put it on, and put on a little yellow hat, The whole person looks fresh and playful.As soon as Li Defa's dishes came out of the pot, he quickly packed them into boxes and added two servings of Laohuo soup. The whole process was smooth and steady, and he couldn't find any faults. It could be seen that he had been specially trained.

Li Defa looked at him coldly, didn't say anything, but nodded secretly in his heart, this young man is more agile than Qiangzi in his work, and his appearance is much more pleasing to the eye, if he really can stay, even if Qiangzi doesn't come back, it's fine...

Before she finished thinking about it, Ji Xiaoyu had already gone out with a post-it note with the delivery address and the orderer's phone number written on it.
