Chapter 6 Part-time Jobs
"Just got up!"
Li Mochen replied casually, and at the same time walked quickly to the door.
But just as he was about to open the door, Li Mochen's heart moved slightly, and he immediately lifted his shirt, and at the same time bit his fingers, outlining some mysterious blood marks on his chest and abdomen.
- Those are relatively simple talismans, and their main function is to clear the mind and calm the mind.
Although Li Mochen asked himself that he had sorted out the demons in his heart, as long as there were not too many mood fluctuations, he would not be in danger of falling into the demons, but the scene on the bus yesterday made him feel palpitations.
It would have been a shame to have really pounced on the woman at that timeβ
So after these talismans were completed, Li Mochen also deliberately recalled the appearance of the call girl yesterday, and confirmed that they were indeed useful, so he opened the door.
"It's really rare, Ah Mo, you actually got up so late today than me, what did you do last night?
As soon as William saw Li Mochen's face, he thought to himself again.
But then he was speechless, and looked at Li Mochen with a strange expression: "It's so strange, I feel like I haven't seen you this night, and you seem to have changed as if you've changed." β
Li Mochen didn't even have a little wave in his heart, he naturally put on a puzzled expression on his face, and looked at a small mirror hanging next to the door: "Is there one? I don't think it has changed." β
William held his chin in his hand and carefully explained: "It has indeed changed, it looks much more cheerful and sunny than together." Damn, you used to be handsome enough. β
Li Mochen in his impression has a gloomy look all day long. No one in the neighborhood or in the school wanted to be friends with him except William, I must mention, the girls!
There are some girls in the school who seem to like this kind of melancholy boys very much, so this guy in front of him can receive more than three love letters every month, which once made him jealous to death.
"Maybe it's because I wanted to open it last night? William, you're right, people can't stay in the past. What should have happened has happened, and there is no way to go back. β
Li Mochen smiled as if he was self-deprecating, and then walked out of the door: "Let's go! Aren't you in a hurry to go to work, why don't you leave quickly?"
William obviously wanted to say something, but finally shrugged his shoulders and walked out of the dim and muddy apartment with Li Mochen.
Although he was very strange about Li Mochen's 'mutation', he was happy to see it come to fruition. No one wants their little friends, and they have a gloomy face all day long.

Li Mochen's part-time job is a Cai Kee Chinese restaurant one block away from them. Because the two of them look quite honest and reliable, coupled with the fact that they are quite diligent and fluent in Chinese, it is easy to find a job here, and they work here as waiters on weekends every week.
They all have work permits issued by the school, and although they are paid a little higher, they are much more reliable and safe than those who smuggle in illegal immigrants.
The key is the Oriental blood of Li Mochen and William - don't look at William as a pure black man, but this is actually a mixture of black and Oriental. So when this Cai Kee Chinese Restaurant was recruiting, Mr. Cai picked them at a glance.
After Li Mochen and William had breakfast together, they came here to work. At first, he was a little uncomfortable and clumsy. After all, he has never done this kind of work since he was a child, and when he was in the realm of the original firmament, he was basically in a state of pampering, and it was inevitable that he would be rusty when he first handled it.
However, he has always been good at learning, relying on the memory of his original owner on the one hand, and trying to imitate his colleagues on the other.
However, in only fifteen minutes, Li Mochen had already mastered this profession with ease.
"Come with me, you two, look, the thirteenth platform is by the window, this is the best view at the moment-"
"Do you need any drinks?"
"Miss, this is your bill. β
"Your credit card, thank you for stopping by. β
"Two, the golden mountain hook wings you ordered have arrived. β
"This is the abalone sambo you wanted. β
It's nothing more than a few words, and then in terms of attitude, be warm and thoughtful, polite, and smile a little brighter.
Perhaps because of the excellent taste here, this Cai Kee Chinese restaurant is doing particularly good business. From 11 a.m. to 2:30 p.m., it was fully booked. Especially at noon, there is a long line of customers waiting outside the door. The loss is that the restaurant closes until half-past two, otherwise they will continue to be busy.
And just when Li Mochen was resting in a corner of the store, William came over angrily.
"Shit! These guys from the South are really tough, they're all racist pigs. It's discrimination, it's discrimination! I'm fed up, I swear! When I buy that car, I'll never do that job as a waiter again. β
Li Mochen could only look at this one with sympathy, just now he noticed that William got into a dispute on the 37th, was entangled for a long time, and was taken out by the store manager alone afterwards and reprimanded.
But judging from what he knew, it didn't seem that the guests were all to blame. After all, it was William who made the mistake first, poured the dish on the guests, and then both sides had bad tempers.
At this time, William looked at Li Mochen's bulging trouser pocket with an envious look.
"How much did you earn today? I saw that the tips given to you by those customers were all hardware shields, hardware shields. β
Speaking of this, several colleagues around him also looked sideways at Li Mochen with complicated eyes.
Li Mochen smiled politely: "About seventy gold shields, I didn't count them carefully." β
In fact, it was one hundred and twenty gold guilders, and several of the customers were especially generous and gave him a tip of more than ten gold guilders.
The 'Divine Infinite Purple Void Immortal King' rarely speaks, but people's hearts are complicated, and if he can resolve unnecessary troubles with a few words, he is happy to do so.
It's just that Li Mochen's expression is still a little weird, and this feeling of being rewarded by charity makes him a little uncomfortable.
But this is the case with the culture and law of America, a job similar to that of a shopkeeper who does not rely on salary.
In Georgia, the minimum wage for employees without tipping is stipulated to be 10 gold per hour, while employees with tips are only 2 gold dongli as the minimum wage.
And the Cai Kee Chinese restaurant where they are located, because the food in the restaurant is very famous and there are many customers, so the waiters here usually have a higher income. Their daily fixed hourly wage, although only a measly 2.5 gold dong, can be tipped here at the end of the day to reach 60 to 80 gold dong.
The rich tips here are the reason why Li Mochen gave up his plan to recuperate at home and came to work with William.
Unfortunately, since they are students, they can only come to work on Saturdays and Sundays. So before that, he and William had been looking forward to this day for five whole days.
The original owner was planning to save money and go to the black market to buy a bottle of 'Yuan Qi Dan' from the East to help him break through the current martial arts realm, while William wanted to buy a car, this guy has been longing for a pickup truck in a second-hand car dealership for a long time.
Li Mochen also values this job, which is likely to be his only source of income in the near future, apart from scholarships and government subsidies.
If possible, he wants to stay at home today to try to cultivate his spirit, thoroughly understand the condition of his own body, and if he has extra time, he can also learn about the world through books and newspapers, thoroughly sort out the memories of the original owner, and so on.
But there was no way, Li Mochen learned from his memory that the Cai Kee Chinese restaurant where they worked was one of the most prosperous restaurants on Market Street.
In America, the more popular the restaurant, the more tips you receive. It seems to be this kind of work, but it has been coveted by countless people, and it has always been a radish and a pit. Even if the boss doesn't give any salary, many people flock to it. If you don't come today, tomorrow the boss may find someone to replace you.
