People in Zongman: My Dimensional Cuisine

Dirk waved her hand and said, "Let's not talk about that now, Hai Meng, have you done a lot of different types of modeling?"

"Yeah...the training was pretty tough before..."

"Training?! Show me a few moves."

Kitagawa Kaimu casually struck a perfect model pose, which immediately caught everyone's attention. As expected of a professionally trained model, she was truly different.

Kraki immediately leaned over and grabbed Kitagawa Kaimu's hand, saying, "Kaimu! You're the one!"

"Huh?! Wha... what do you mean it's me?"

Kitagawa Kaimu was stunned. Kraki coughed lightly and said, "Since you know WGO has a magazine, then you also know that WGO has a fashion department, right...?"

Kitagawa Kaimu nodded and said, "I know, it's a fashion magazine, with clothes, accessories, hairstyles, and perfumes, and things like that..."

"Yes, now WGO wants to broaden its audience and launch more affordable products and restaurants, so we're starting a new project: fashion design for the masses, mostly targeting teenagers and young adults. We need to find models!"

Kitagawa Kaimu paused for a moment, then stammered, "No...it can't be me..."

Dekkera smiled and said, "It's you! Your figure and appearance match perfectly, and you've also had relevant training. You'll need a little more training later, and you're a female student. Your studies aren't too demanding right now, so you're a perfect fit."

Kitagawa Kaimu swallowed hard and said, "Um...can I?"

"Of course! No... absolutely!"

Kitagawa Kaimu realized that it really does happen—lots of good fortune really do fall from the sky. She wondered if fate knew she had a big appetite, which was why she received more good fortune than others...

Klaqi asked in confusion, "How many part-time jobs do you have now?"

Kitagawa Kaimiya thought for a moment and said, "Hmm... there's a hand model, who goes once a week on Wednesdays; a reader model, who goes once a week and chooses her own time; a restaurant hostess; and the rest of the time is..."

"Wow...goodness gracious...you're the king of paid employees..."

Kitagawa Kaimu scratched his head and said, "It's alright...not too tiring..."

Kraki thought for a moment and said, "If you're not working full-time, you should be paid by the hour, right? Considering your qualifications, how much is your hourly wage?"

"Around 1500 yuan, about two hours, occasionally overtime... that's already a lot!"

Dekla thought for a moment and said, "If we calculate a month as 30 days, even if you are away for 8 days, there are still 22 days. Add special circumstances and let's say 20 days. At 3,000 a day, that's about 60,000 a month. Models pay more, but you still won't earn 100,000 a month."

Kitagawa Kaimu nodded blankly and said, "Hmm...it's about 80,000 a month...that's a very accurate analysis...but sometimes if I do part-time work, I can earn more, so it's around 90,000 a month..."

Klaqi smiled and said, "Haimeng, aren't you tired of having so many part-time jobs?"

"It's...it's alright..."

"Don't you think it's a waste to have so many part-time jobs, which are exhausting, and you only earn a little more money than your peers?"

"Um... I've already done a lot..."

Rantabi smiled and said, "Would you like more, more free time?"

"Of course! Hmm? What do you mean?"

Dekkera casually said, "Quit all your part-time jobs and come to WGO. If there are models who need you, you can shoot; if not, you're free. How about that? You don't need to shoot every day. You'll be paid based on the number of times you appear on camera."

"Eh?!"

Chapter 319 Hai Meng Joins WGO, Kitagawa Hai Meng Moves In (Please Subscribe~)

Kitagawa Kaimu knew very well that this would make her a professional model for WGO. She was initially reluctant to become a full-time model, but Kraki seemed to know what she was thinking.

They were straightforward: come when needed, and do whatever you want when not needed. This gave Kitagawa Kaimu a glimmer of hope. Freedom—that was exactly what she needed.

The reason why the reader/model doesn't agree to be a full-time model is because she prefers cosplay and doesn't want to give up so much time. Now that she has plenty of time, she only needs to worry about the salary. If the salary isn't high, she still won't come.

After all, she needs to make a living. Although her father sends her money, she also has hobbies. Is it free to buy a camera? Free to buy cosmetics? Free to buy jewelry? Free to buy clothes and food?

However, Kitagawa Kaimu felt that if the salary was about the same, she could easily find a part-time job at a library or similar place occasionally, which would be fine.

Seemingly sensing Kitagawa Kaimu's thoughts, Klara smiled and said, "I know what you're worried about, the salary, right?"

"Um...um..."

Although this might seem materialistic, it's a very real issue. Dekker casually said, "You're probably worried that the pay won't be much if you're paid based on the number of times you appear on screen, right?"

"Um... also..."

Klaqi smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'll give you three thousand in salary."

"Huh?" xn

Not only Kitagawa Kaimu, but even Hori Kyoko and the others were stunned. Good heavens, isn't this a bit too low? Three thousand yen, Kitagawa Kaimu can earn it back in a day. No matter how you look at it, quitting would be a loss.

Lucifer said irritably, "Are you talking about appearing on camera only once, or just one photo?"

"Take one take."

"Eh?"

Yuuko Ichihara said irritably, "Hey, Kraki, your wages are way too low! It's no wonder no one applies!"

Kraki and Dekkera were stunned for a moment and said, "Huh? Isn't that enough?!"

Nami said irritably, "Three thousand yen, Haimeng could earn that in just two hours as a waitress. It's a waste to make her quit!"

Dekkera and the others were stunned, and a barrage of complaints followed. Rantabi immediately raised his hand and shouted, "Stop! Stop! Why do you think it's Japanese yen?!"

Lucifer and the others were taken aback. Nakiri Managi casually said, "Please, WGO is the world's largest food organization, a fashion benchmark, the pinnacle of food processing, and a model of education and training. Do you really think they would pay their employees in Japanese yen?"

Yuki Yoshikawa stammered, "Um... what... what kind of currency is that...?"

"Knife!" x5

Everyone was stunned, completely dumbfounded. What the hell?! Three thousand dollars?! That's just outrageous!

Rantabi casually remarked, "They all use knives directly and exchange currency themselves, so... please, three thousand yen isn't even worth a fraction of the cameraman's belt..."

Yuki Yoshikawa stammered, "Um... how much is three thousand dollars...?"

An said softly, "If we exchange it according to the price... it's over 340,000, let's round it up to 350,000."

"Three hundred and fifty thousand?!"

Kitagawa Kaimu was dumbfounded. 350,000 yen... She was exhausted, sacrificing a lot of time to work for three or four months, and now she only gets one appearance on screen?! This pie is too big! She almost fainted from the shock.

Klaqi said with a smile, "WGO's fashion magazine is a monthly publication, so it's about once a month. If sales are good, it might be twice a month, divided into two parts. And Haimeng, you are currently the top choice for the youth edition. In the future, after you graduate, you can apply to become an official WGO model."

Dekkera nodded and said, "Yes, but back then it won't be civilian clothes anymore, it will be formal wear and the salary will be higher. But you will have to work more hours because there are many different types of work."

Before Kitagawa Kaimu could react, Rantaba laughed and said, "Hey, hey, snap out of it."

"Huh? Oh... what's wrong?"

"Pfft..." xn

Kraki laughed and said, "She's really cute... How about it, want to come?"

"I...can I really?"

Dekkera nodded and said, "Of course! No need to confirm anymore, just trust yourself. And don't worry, the youth magazine won't have swimsuits or anything like that, it'll all be normal everyday fashion for teenagers."

"I...I'll go! I'll go!"

Klaqi smiled and said, "Then welcome to the company. I'll have them prepare the contract tomorrow. Just so you know, this youth magazine doesn't have an end-of-year bonus, but it does have a full attendance bonus."

"Huh?! Perfect attendance?!"

"Of course, do you think WGO's magazine is only sold in one country?"

"Oh... then... what should I prepare?"

"You don't need to prepare anything, just pay attention to your figure. Are you prone to weight gain?"

Yuko Ichihara said with a smile, "Hai Meng won't get fat even if she eats a whole pot of rice."

"Huh?! Great! Let's do it this way. It'll be published in about two months. I'll give you an advance on part of your salary, about half. When it's published, it'll be two issues at once. The advance on half of your salary for two months, plus a fee for one appearance, how does that sound?"

"Mmmmmmm!"

Kitagawa Kaimu got excited. Even half of that would be over 170,000! She would definitely agree. Nakiri Managi thought for a moment and said, "We still need a little training... How about this, you move in on Fridays and leave on Mondays."

"During the day, you'll go to WGO training, and in the evening, Dekla and the others will teach you about WGO. If you have something to do, that's fine too. You have a foundation, so you'll learn quickly. It's not far from Katagiri, so it won't affect your classes on Mondays. It'll also be convenient to try out new outfits beforehand."

Kitagawa Kaimu nodded blankly and said, "Isn't this too much trouble..."

Kasugano Sora said casually, "No trouble at all. Just come back after school every Friday night. Go back tomorrow to pack some things, move in tomorrow night, and go to school from the store on Monday."

"Oh...."

Chapter 320 An Unusual Night, Strange Guests Arriving (Please Subscribe~)

Kitagawa Kaimu was completely dazed. Suddenly, she had become an employee of WGO, with plenty of free time, a generous salary, and the option to move into the store every week for better meals and a lively atmosphere.

Kitagawa Kaimu felt that from now on, she would be the first to object to anyone who said that there was no such thing as a free lunch. Not only did she encounter a free lunch falling from the sky, but she also encountered a rain of free lunches falling from the sky, which almost overwhelmed her.

"Hey! Girls, we're back!"

It was obvious that Masayoshi and the others had returned. Kobayashi Rindou and the others also came back together. They were taken aback when they saw Hori Kyoko and the others, but after learning about the situation, they all welcomed them back.

Kitagawa Kaimu was also a little nervous, but Alice smiled and said, "Krachi-nee... what do you think of me? I don't even want a salary."

"Go back to school and study properly."

"Why?! That's not fair!"

"Have you been trained? Are you as tall as Hai Meng? Is the teaching style of Totsuki the same as that of a regular school? If you don't pass the next exam, Totsuki will expel you directly, no matter who you are. If you are expelled, you are dead."

Alice sighed and then shut herself off. It was too hard for her. Kobayashi Rindou wasn't interested, and Akane Kubo Momo also said that she just wanted to be a pastry chef.

When it was time for dinner, Klara and the others told Shiraha about it, and Shiraha expressed his welcome, which made Kitagawa Kaimu breathe a sigh of relief.

Bai Yu thought for a moment and said, "Are you moving a lot of things? If so, I'll come and help you."

"Not much, since I'm only coming here on Fridays and staying for three days, so I don't need too much stuff, just some clothes and toiletries."

Bai Yu nodded and said, "Okay, that's good. As for daily necessities, I'll just take some time to buy them tomorrow. Yuko, I'll leave it to you."

"No problem, Haimeng, tomorrow... or you can stay here tonight, and I'll go to your house with you during the day tomorrow. We can buy some daily necessities on the way back, okay?"

Kitagawa Kaimu hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay... thank you, Yuuko-nee..."

"It's alright, it'll just take a little more time to finish the clothes anyway. By the way, Zhengyi, can't you fix your hair and sunglasses?"

"Huh? What can't be solved?"

"When are you going to throw away your sunglasses, headbands, hair ties, and all that stuff?"

Justice sighed and said, "The way you look at me... why are you all so persistent?"

Everyone rolled their eyes and said nothing. After eating, Hori Kyoko and the others left. After all, they weren't Kitagawa Kaimu; they hadn't moved in, so they couldn't stay out too late.

Kraki and the others had witnessed Kitagawa Umimu's incredible appetite. Gasai Yuno and the others, who had already eaten lunch, were even more astonished. She ate so much for lunch, and still had enough for dinner?! Did she have a black hole in her stomach?!

Kasugano Sora said with a smile, "I'm really shocked no matter how you look at it, Haimu, where did your lunch go?"

"Hmm? I think it's alright, but it's still as delicious as ever! Thank you, Manager Shiraha!"

"It's alright. For a chef, the best compliment is when the customers enjoy the food."

"Manager Bai Yu is really different from those boys."

Bai Yu thought for a moment and said, "It's probably... the difference between men and boys..."

"Men and boys... um...."

Kitagawa Kaimu blushed as well, and Lucifer said irritably, "Baiyu, don't scare her. But I didn't expect you to be such an innocent girl, Kaimu. Judging from this, you've never even been in a relationship."

"No...no...to be honest...I don't know many male friends..."

Zdelada grinned and said, "Hmm, I didn't expect that. You're dressed very maturely. It seems like it's because you used to work as a part-time model."

"Yes, that's one reason..."

Kraki waved her hand and said, "Let's not talk about that now. Let's go and choose a room first. Later, when we're done with our work, we'll take some time to introduce you to WGO."

"Oh...but the clothes..."

Yuko Ichihara waved her hand and said, "I'll be minding the shop tonight, so I'll take care of it while I'm there. Don't worry, you'll see the cosplay outfit you want as soon as you wake up tomorrow morning."
