Chapter 6 The Motivated Little Er
Zhang Ning found a river on the south side of the town, this should be the Lihe River, just now the passerby was very proud to introduce the town of Lihe, deliberately emphasized that in ancient times, this river was not flowing water, but wine, hence the name. Because of the overflowing aroma of wine, the pen & fun & pavilion www.biquge.info attracted many people to settle here, and more and more people came to form Lihe Town. Because people drank the fine wine from the Lihe River for generations, slowly, the taste became weaker and weaker, and finally it turned into water.
Zhang Ning was skeptical, and wondered whether turning the river into wine was a folklore or a monk's doing.
Zhang Ning put down his doubts, washed himself, changed into that set of "new" clothes, and thought about finding a job first, preferably with food and shelter, and after doing it for a while, he would make up enough to go to Xianshan.
He washed up and took a picture of the river—barely visible. It's a pity that the soap doesn't work at all, otherwise it will definitely be a plus for his interview score.
Zhang Ning complained that his mother was trying to buy fakes cheaply, and at the same time condemned the binary store in front of his house for defrauding consumers. Then, he threw away his torn clothes and all the tools of production and labor used on the road, hid soap and glass marbles in the inner pocket of his clothes, and walked confidently towards Lihe Town.
On the way, he planned the next step, he was going to the largest restaurant in the town to apply for the second shop, because the restaurant will have good food, as long as he is not caught, he will not be hungry!
After inquiry, he came to the town of Fushun Building, carefully looked at the store, Zhang Ning confidently found the shopkeeper, just explained the intention, before he had time to explain the concept of modern hotel management and preferential activities, the shopkeeper simply hired him. Later, other diners learned the reason why his job went so smoothly - his predecessor unfortunately met a demon cultivator a few days ago and died in the line of duty.
I heard that there are occasional cultivators in this restaurant, thinking that it is those monks who do not have Bigu, or want to remember the life of the mortal world, Zhang Ning secretly clenched his fists, so that he would have the opportunity to worship a certain sect or a certain scattered cultivator, and it is expected that he will be forced to get on the right track through life!
Zhang Ning had done odd jobs in his aunt's noodle shop during the summer vacation, and he was familiar with the operation of the restaurant, so he decided to give the shopkeeper a move. Business is booming here, and it is more effective in attracting monks to the door.
Zhang Ning found an opportunity to elaborate on modern marketing methods such as preferential rewards, membership systems, questionnaires, and customer maintenance to the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper looked at Zhang Ning carefully for a long time with the eyes of a mental illness, ordered him not to mention these strange theories again, and assigned another runner to keep an eye on Zhang Ning to prevent him from making any strange remarks and actions to the guests.
Zhang Ning was so embarrassed that he sulked, this script is obviously wrong, after the protagonist of someone else's family crossed, he casually threw out some modern things, which made the ancients rush to it, how did he become a grandmother who didn't hurt and uncle didn't love it?
However, in order to wait for the rabbit, Zhang Ning endured!
Half a month later, he finally ushered in two monks, but unfortunately they set up an enchantment after asking for two pots of wine, and after talking about business, he threw down the silver and flew away from the window, completely without giving Zhang Ning the opportunity to show his talent.
However, as a film, the protagonist must not be in the mortal world all the time.
On this day, Zhang Ning really heard an exciting news: the Qingxu faction on Qingyun Mountain wanted to recruit disciples from outside the sect.
That night, he packed up his things very simply, wrapped up some food in the kitchen and rushed to Qingyun Peak.
Zhang Ning felt that he was very principled and only took what he deserved, such as a small jar of pear blossom aging, two roast chickens, four pieces of braised beef, a string of sausages, ten eggs, plus a set of shop clothes and cloth shoes, which were barely enough to pay when converted into wages.
Zhang Ning walked briskly on the mountain road in the dark night, without the slightest remorse for the stacks of dishes he broke in Fushun Building and offended several big customers.
Because of the full preparation this time, especially the abundant food, Zhang Ning only took two days to come to the halfway point of Qingyun Mountain, where there are several bamboo buildings with simple structures, which are the assessment and reception places for outer disciples.
At this time, there were many applicants who arrived a few days in advance, and every bamboo building was crowded with people, and Zhang Ning didn't plan to fight with others, he found a stone to sit down and close his eyes to recuperate.
One after another, some people who signed up came here, and the composition of the personnel was extremely complex, including landlords with big bellies, rich ladies wearing gold and silver, scholars with lupine scarves, and shabby-dressed peddlers and pawns.
Zhang Ning feels pretty good, after all, he is naturally beautiful, ignoring the work clothes and the faint smell of oil smoke on his body, in terms of image and temperament alone, he should be in the top ten.
At about nine o'clock in the morning, Zhang Ning suddenly found that there was a registrant who came to register in a gorgeous sedan chair.
As soon as the sedan curtain was lifted, a young man with a folding fan walked over with a figure-eight step.
The corners of Zhang Ning's eyes twitched, it was actually this kid!
When he was in Fushun Building, because he couldn't get used to him making things difficult for the resident storyteller in the building, Zhang Ning detained a pot of fish soup into Yang Dashao's arms. But fortunately, Zhang Ning slipped away quickly, and the temperature was relatively good, so he didn't really hurt this Yang Dashao.
The only adverse consequence of the "fish soup full of arms" incident was that the shopkeeper kept him to work for free for another 6 years, but he did not bite because of the lice, and his labor contract was unilaterally extended by the employer until 28 years later.
Yang Dashao also saw Zhang Ning at this time, he folded his fan and rushed over and laughed loudly: "I didn't expect that a person who ran the hall would dare to come to this immortal mountain, and he wouldn't spill bubbles..."
"Young Master Yang," Zhang Ning interrupted: "Since you know that this is an immortal mountain, please be cautious in your words and deeds, you must know that cultivating immortals is the vision of the root bone qualification and state of mind, not what work has been done, and the work of a hotel waiter is of great benefit to hone people's hearts, Gongzi must not use a worldly heart to examine everything in the world." ”
Hua Hua Dashao was choked by a shopkeeper and rolled his eyes, this guy has eaten the elixir? Speaking of words, he is a big reason! This is too face-saving in front of everyone! When he was hesitating to change his mouth and change his hand, he only heard a noise around him and quickly quieted down, it turned out to be a green rainbow shooting from the fairy mountain.
Everyone including Yang Da Shao hurriedly lowered their hands and stood solemnly, waiting for the arrival of the immortals with respectful faces.
Zhang Ning jumped down from the stone, dusted off the non-existent dust on his clothes, and stood solemnly, thinking excitedly in his heart that the historical moment to test the brightness of the protagonist's aura has finally arrived!
