Chapter 23: Acacia
Now that you have a house and a storefront, it's time to hire workers. Night Shadow is in the game, whether it is a player or an NPC, there are few people who know each other, how can you find good people to help you manage your business and back house, it seems that this is also a very difficult thing. After thinking about it, since his idea was to hire NPCs, he naturally had to find aborigines who were familiar with the situation here. The level of the city lord is too high, and it would be too wasteful of resources to trouble his old man for this trivial matter, so the only ones who have dealt with him are Wang Shouyi and Zhong Yao. The place where Zhong Yao worked was not far from him, and Night Shadow went straight away.
After listening to the meaning of the night shadow, Zhong Yao smiled, it is not difficult to tell the night shadow about this matter. There is a place in the city that specializes in the employment of non-combat talents, and not only that, but this place also provides the service of direct purchase of domestic slaves for the aborigines, whether they are hired or purchased, they can make a deed, and if either party violates it, they have their own guards to enforce the law and punish them.
Nightshade lamented that he was an outsider, so he could only take the path of hiring, and the hired person could run away and be poached at any time, and he was not good at using it. It would be nice if you could buy a house slave directly, the loyalty of the house slave is very high, and there is a value for cultivation, as long as you don't do anything that violates the system, then the house slave will always belong to you, how good!
"Don't you know that the master has been named a resident of Shenzhou by the city lord?" Zhong Yao asked curiously.
"I don't know, how can I prove this to others?" Nightshade was a little strange, he hadn't heard the castle lord say it.
Pointing to the medal on the body of Night Shadow, Zhong Yao told the Night Shadow that the medal worn by Night Shadow is a symbol of status, in the entire land of Shenzhou, there are not many such medals, either it represents the great contribution made by the person wearing it to the people of Shenzhou, or the person who wears it has special talents and is respected by all the soldiers and civilians in Shenzhou. Therefore, those who wear medals are respected by the aborigines of Shenzhou as the best among their people.
Nightshade was dumbfounded, unexpectedly that this small brand could have so many effects and benefits.
Bidding farewell to Zhong Yao, following the path Zhong Yao pointed out, Night Shadow passed through several streets and came to a wide street. Under the eaves on either side of the street sat a number of eagerly awaiting. Occasionally, someone passing by would come up to ask, and people on both sides would shout: "Hire me, I can speak ......," "Hire me, I can endure hardships and ......stand hard work," and so on.
Nightshade didn't stop asking, and walked straight to the big house that Zhong Yao had said. The two big black men at the door were about to scold when they saw the outsider of Night Shadow walking inside, and after seeing the obvious medal sign on Night Shadow's body, the two black faces suddenly smiled into two chrysanthemums, flatteringly greeted them, bowed down, and shouted again and again: "My lord, please come inside." When one of them saw the night shadow nodding and walked inside, he hurried inside, and after a while, he saw a middle-aged man greet him.
"I don't know what kind of slave you want to choose when you come here, and I will definitely recommend the best of the best to the adults for the adults to choose. As the middle-aged man spoke, another person held a roster, followed by a group of people standing in a row in the room where Night Shadow was.
"I need a lot of people, one is to put in the store to take care of the business, the selected person must have the means to do business, be good at calculation, and have a flexible mind, and the other is to help me take care of the back house, but also to be quick and simple. Nightshade informed the middle-aged man of her request.
Soon, the middle-aged man selected a group of people from the crowd and introduced Night Shadow one by one. After a detailed inquiry about each person's area of expertise, Nightshade finally selected 20 people. After paying the money and making the deed, Nightshade led them back to her house.
These people who were selected were very excited. From the location and size of the house, you can see the dignity of the master, the jade plate worn by the master is to prove that the master is extraordinary, the building in the house is exquisite, they are the first batch of patriarchs who were selected, and they will always live in this comfortable environment in the future, everyone has secretly made up their minds in their hearts, they must follow the master, do things well, and not be driven out.
Nightshade gathered the crowd together and told them what they had to do with them. In particular, after their own detailed understanding, the two big treasurers and housekeepers in their minds made detailed arrangements, and then handed them over to arrange the follow-up work separately.
The two NPCs had already seen how much Nightshade valued them when they questioned at the Trading Place, and understood that this was an opportunity, so they answered every question Nightshade asked in detail and in an orderly manner. In the end, because of his specialization, the NPC named Wang De was qualified for the position of the Night Shadow treasurer, and the NPC named Guo Sheng was given the position of the internal housekeeper.
Wang De and Guo Sheng led their own people away. Needless to say, Guo Sheng's side has already made it very clear that Night Shadow has already divided the types of work very clearly when he chooses, one porter, one gardener and one pet keeper, two maids and three maids, and three partners, just need to perform their duties. Wang De's own shop here is about to open as fast as possible. Nightshade followed, passing through the inner hall to inspect the storefront.
The storefront space on the first floor is very large, it is a full-frame structure, which occupies half of the area of the square, and the arrangement of Night Shadow is used to sell medicines, weapons, armor and groceries, and the second floor is temporarily closed, and when you have time, you will learn the skill of brewing, and then the second floor can be opened as a high-end tavern. Imagine what kind of enjoyment it is to sit in a comfortable space higher than the entire square, looking down on the life in the square, and then serving some excellent food and drink.
Wang De quickly arranged the geographical location of each shopkeeper, and Ye Ying was very satisfied after watching it. The store is divided into four areas, which are marked with four counters for medicines, weapons, armor and sundries, and each counter is marked with two sub-counters for purchasing raw materials and selling finished products. Each of the four shopkeepers stood behind their respective counters, each equipped with a man.
Since he has his own shop, the clothes must not be worn in a mess, Nightshade finds the production materials in the package, changes the clothes of the entire 20 people into a uniform cyan kaftan, and embroiders the clothes with a three-character graphic similar to the real-world trademark of Yiranju, indicating the identity of these people.
The things to be sold were placed on the counters of each counter, and the things that needed to be purchased were listed, and as soon as they were ready, Night Shadow instructed Wang De to open the door of the store and start business. Throughout the ages, curiosity has been the nature of everyone, and it has attracted the attention of players and residents of Luofeng City as early as the construction of Night Shadow's mansion.
They found that this store was probably the first in Luofeng City. The shop covers a large area, the interior of the shop is luxuriously decorated, and the products sold are all rare items, and even the sales staff wear clothes of the same color and style, no matter which aspect, it is the best choice. Soon, new discoveries were made, and the shop also acquired herbs and production materials from low-grade to high-end, which required very large quantities. All the players and aborigines are very happy, the players are happy that the shop has all kinds of high-end medicines they need, and they can sell the production materials obtained in the process of fighting monsters, and the aborigines are happy that the night shadow shop has many medicines that can cure their diseases, and they can also dig herbs and production materials for money to improve their lives.
Seeing that the business inside the store was running normally, Nightshade returned to the back house. After the house was built, I didn't enjoy the scenery in the garden, let alone organize the functional settings of the house. Recall the guest settings of the house, set the back house of the house to "Do Not Disturb" mode, refuse anyone to enter, of course, the purchased house slave is already the property of Night Shadow, not in this list, easy to prevent theft, the store is set to "visit", everyone is allowed to enter and watch, and the clerk is set to smart mode, in this case, a qiē transaction can only be carried out with the permission of the clerk.
Night Shadow entered the courtyard where he was resting, and the equipment for living in the courtyard was complete. Although the curious Night Shadow visited Zhao Yun's house in the Three Kingdoms, it was just an ordinary friend, and there were different men and women, so he definitely couldn't use it casually. Now that she has her own spacious and comfortable living place, Nightshade is like a child, excited to try out the use and comfort of each item one by one. The results are very satisfying. Nightshade couldn't help but think that if it's okay in the future, you can come to the game and live in your own house to enjoy life. A cozy garden like this is impossible to have in reality. Speaking of which, I still rent a house to live in reality, and I don't really have a nest of my own, so I still have to earn some money, find a city I like, buy a house that makes me feel comfortable, and let myself really have a home, a comfortable nest that you can go back to no matter how you wander.
Night Shadow had a lot of fun in the game, but Yang Chenghao suffered from lovesickness, and after meeting Night Shadow for the second time, Yang Chenghao determined his mind. He believes that there is a fate between people. After a brief encounter in X City, he became interested in Night Shadow, and wanted to know more about her but lost her trace. deliberately stayed with his comrades for two days, just to meet her again, but there was no news. My comrade-in-arms is right, when you are interested in a beautiful woman, whether she is good or bad, as long as you want to get to know her, in the process of getting to know her, you will fall deeper and deeper. I am not a nosy person, but I get to the bottom of a woman I don't know, every time I want to find her and understand her, I actually miss her a little more, and she is a little heavier in her heart. I thought that there was no chance to see each other in the vast sea of people, but I accidentally met it in another city. At that moment, she was full of excitement, that excited heart, all explained her heart, this is her fate with him. Her tears of sorrow burned his heart, and her stubbornness made him want to hug her in his arms even more, and at that moment he made a decision. I want to tell her that she can rely on herself, that she can shelter her from the wind and rain, and I just hope to see the carefree smile on her face again when she first saw her. Why is there a word love at first sight, that is, as long as it is your fate, even if you are separated by thousands of mountains and rivers, people around you come and go, just need a glance at that moment, and you are destined to be in love for a lifetime.
When I got home, I sent her a message to report that she was safe, but she didn't reply. Yang Chenghao thought, he must be in a bad mood and didn't pay attention to his mobile phone. The next day, I sent a message to care about her, but I didn't reply, Yang Chenghao thought again, I should go out, the phone was not around, I sent it again in the evening, and I still didn't reply, Yang Chenghao found a reason for the night shadow again, and on the third day, I sent a message again, but there was no response until almost noon. Yang Chenghao's heart was tangled. Keep guessing about Nightshade's thoughts, if she's in a bad mood, or if she doesn't want to pay attention to herself, or if something bad is happening. If you weren't a soldier, you could just fly over to her and find out.
The family couldn't stand it anymore. In the past few days, Yang Chenghao has obviously had something on his mind, and it is a very annoying thing for him. His parents tried to ask him, but he refused to answer because it had nothing to do with his job. At this time, it is rare for the family to sit together for lunch on weekends, and he is still absent-minded.
Yang Chenghao really can't do it anymore, he has been staying in the army, rarely dealing with girls, not knowing how to interact with girls, and not guessing girls' thoughts. The little sister sat next to her, and when it came to falling in love, the little sister was much more experienced than him, and she often said that the head was the way, and her boyfriend had dated several times, but she had never settled down, they were all girls, and she understood the thoughts of girls. After the idea of consulting the little sister popped up, Yang Chenghe couldn't suppress it anymore, and he wanted to tell his parents after the dust settled, but now he can't, it's been three days since he went home, and he is about to be tortured to death, and if he doesn't figure it out, maybe, his fate will be gone.
pulled the little sister into a corner, "Ask you something, you said, if the man and woman leave each other's phone calls, but the woman doesn't reply to a message for a few days after separation, what kind of attitude does she have towards this man?"
The little sister stared at him dumbfounded, completely forgetting what was in her hand, and suddenly shouted to everyone in the living room: "Dad, Mom, Grandpa, my brother has a girlfriend!"
The living room suddenly stopped. Yang Chenghao's mother reacted first, and trotted in front of Yang Chenghao excitedly, "Son, whose daughter is it, how old is it, how long have you been dating......
"Mom, don't you be in such a hurry?" Yang Chenghao had a headache, "I'm worried." ”
"Brother, did you quarrel with your girlfriend? Do you want me to help you analyze and analyze?" Yang Xiaomei was very excited, and the whole family was very excited. Yang Chenghao is the eldest grandson of the fourth generation of their Yang family, he has been very assertive since he was a child, and he is very good at everything, except for the same, that is, in the matter of marriage, he has to find what he likes to get married. The family didn't believe it at first, so they let some very good-looking girls from other families try to date him, or get in touch, but they were all pushed away by him for various reasons. is about to enter his 30s, and he is still alone, and his family is worried to death. Now hearing this exciting news, every member of the family is excited.
"It's not a quarrel, it's that people probably haven't looked down on me yet, and I'm still working hard at this time. Yang Chenghao was listless.
"What kind of girl it is, my old man will go and see for himself. Their grandfather, Mrs. Yang, slapped him, his great-grandson is so good, and if he goes out in person, he won't believe that he can't handle this girl.
"Grandpa, don't make a mess, you better recuperate......" Before the words fell, the mobile phone pinched in his hand suddenly came with a message prompt sound, Yang Chenghao hurriedly turned on the mobile phone, and was excited when he saw the name of the message prompt on it, "Call me back! She replied to me, I'll see it first!"
There are not many words in the message, it was Night Shadow who came out of the game hungry and was about to find something to eat only to find that there was nothing to eat at home, and he took his mobile phone to eat at a restaurant outside, only to find that Yang Chenghao had sent several messages. It's all words of concern, I feel like this is a very good person, Night Shadow felt that he should say hello back, so he told Yang Chenghao that he hadn't been with his mobile phone for the past few days, and he only saw the information today, and by the way, he politely said that if Yang Chenghao came to his own city, he would invite him to eat here, and by the way, he would accompany him to play some fun places here.
Yang Chenghao was happy, and for a while he felt that he was full of energy, and his whole body was brilliant. Yang Xiaomei looked at his expression and teased if his future sister-in-law had told him something good, Yang Chenghao blurted out, "Your sister-in-law, invite me to find her!"
