Chapter 36: Goji Berries (II)

After talking to the shopkeeper Shen about the wolfberry, Xu Xiangwan did not leave in a hurry, but asked the shopkeeper Shen: "Uncle shopkeeper, I want to ask you something." Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 🔥 Don't know if you're busy right now? ”

Shopkeeper Shen touched his chin with a smile, and said with a smile: "It's not a good time today, there are not many people who come to grab medicine in the afternoon, and the store is not busy." What does the little girl want to ask my uncle about? ”

Just said that it was a business, Shopkeeper Shen was in a good mood, and for this little girl who looked clever and cute, Shopkeeper Shen also liked it very much, so he chatted with Xu Xiangwan very kindly.

"Then delay the shopkeeper uncle. I want to ask if there are any shops in our town that are recruiting workers recently? My brother wants to find a job and subsidize the family. Xu Xiangwan's big eyes sparkled brightly, trying to make herself look more innocent and innocent.

Shopkeeper Shen glanced at the brother and sister who were cleanly dressed but patched, and a flash of clarity flashed in his eyes, and he chuckled: "You really asked the right person, a friend mentioned it yesterday, saying that he wanted to recruit a job." My friend is the shopkeeper of Chunfeng Restaurant, and he wants to recruit a runner, eighty copper plates a month, and he is in charge of food and housing. It's just that I'm tired of work, can the little brother be interested? ”

I heard that there were eighty copper plates a month, and Goro's eyes lit up, and he was about to open his mouth, but Xu Xiangwan snatched the conversation: "Thank you, Uncle Shopkeeper, this salary is really authentic." But although my brother hasn't gone to a private school, he can write and calculate, I don't know if there are any people who are recruited to settle accounts? ”

Afraid that the shopkeeper Shen would think too much, Wulang hurriedly pulled Xu Xiangwan and smiled embarrassedly: "My little sister is not sensible, and I hope the shopkeeper will forgive me." I look at this job very well, the salary is kind, and it includes food and housing, and there is nothing better. ”

However, Shopkeeper Shen was not angry because of Xu Xiangwan's dissatisfaction, but teased: "It's okay, it's okay." The little girl is afraid that your brother will suffer hardship, right? When you say this, I really remember that the Three Hearts Book House was recruiting people a few days ago, but I don't know if it's still recruiting, if you are interested, I can take you to have a look. ”

"Uncle Shopkeeper, you are so good! But if you open your door to do business, we won't delay you, why don't you tell us where the bookstore is? Let's just see for ourselves. Xu Xiangwan smiled when he heard it.

Shopkeeper Shen nodded: "It's okay." ”

After all, he also works for others, and it is not good to leave his post without permission.

So the shopkeeper Shen told them the location of the Sanxin Book House in detail, but it was not far, it was on the next street of Rende Hall, turned the intersection, and walked a few dozen steps to the east.

After Gorou put away the medicine, Xu Xiangwan happily pulled Gorou and ran to the Sanxin Study.

Usually when I have nothing to do at home, I see Gorou writing and painting on the ground with a branch, Xu Xiangwan knows that Gorou likes to read, but there are no conditions at home. If you can really get a job in the bookstore, it will be a great thing for Gorou.

"Brother, hurry up." Xu Xiangwan was anxious, for fear that he would be late and someone would already recruit a worker.

Knowing that Xu Xiangwan was all for himself, Gorou also had a smile on his face: "Don't be in a hurry for a while, be careful of being fallen." ”

After a while, Xu Xiangwan's brother and sister came to a small door.

The store is six vermilion lacquered wooden doors, only the two wooden doors in the middle are open, the door is hung with an earthy yellow banner, on which is written a big "book" word, the door is hung with a black background white wooden plaque, on the book a few dragon flying phoenix dance big characters, it is "three heart book".

"Here it is." Xu Xiangwan's mood was a little nervous, and he secretly glanced at the store and stopped.

Gorou didn't have any stage fright, but led Xu Xiangwan to the door generously, knocked on the door, and walked in after someone answered.

"You're here to buy books?" The shopkeeper was a middle-aged man who was still holding a book in his hand at this time, and when he raised his eyes and glanced at it, he saw that the people who came were two children dressed plainly, but he didn't show any different colors.

Gorou first saluted to the shopkeeper, and then asked politely, "I heard that your store is recruiting, I wonder if there are still people left?" ”

The shopkeeper glanced at Gorou in surprise: "Poor." But I'm afraid you're ...... age."

"The shopkeeper doesn't know, the kid just looks small, but in fact he is over ten years old." Gorou replied without humility or arrogance.

Looking at his old age and dealing with it decently, the shopkeeper nodded secretly: "We are recruiting handymen here, and we need to be able to read and settle accounts, can you?" ”

Although the boy has never gone to school, he has studied "Three Character Classic", "Hundred Family Names", and "Thousand Character Text" with his mother since he was a child, and he can be regarded as knowing a few words. I don't dare to say that I am proficient in accounting, but I only know a thing or two. Gorou said matter-of-factly.

The shopkeeper was quite satisfied with Gorou's steadfastness and not being exaggerated, so he said lightly: "Although there are not many customers in the store, there is a lot of work, cleaning, tidying, and placing these are your business." ”

"The boy is not afraid of being tired, but he is afraid of not having a job to do." Gorou said this truthfully, and the shopkeeper who made no smile also pulled the corners of his mouth.

The shopkeeper nodded and said, "The salary is only sixty yuan a month." Do you know how to cook? ”

"Yes." Gorou nodded.

"Well, if you make me another lunch every day, I'll pay you an extra ten cents." Shopkeeper said.

In this way, although the salary is not as good as that of Chunfeng Restaurant, it is not bad in Guojia Town.

"Thank you, shopkeeper. I don't know when I will go to work? Gorou said happily.

"August 16th. I want to go home once in the Mid-Autumn Festival, and then open the door at 16. My surname is Zhu, you can call me Zhu shopkeeper. Shopkeeper Zhu briefly introduced himself.

This bookstore was opened by the shopkeeper Zhu himself, although the shopkeeper Zhu seems to be a little cold, but he is a good person, but he is better than they imagined.

Gorou also told the shopkeeper Zhu about his situation, and after signing the deed, they said goodbye to each other.

On the way home, Xu Xiangwan and Wulang were in a very good mood, and when they came out, they not only determined the time to sell wolfberries, but also found a good job for Wulang, which can be regarded as double happiness.

"Brother, you can read the book when you have nothing to do in the store." Xu Xiangwan said happily.

Gorou is not so optimistic: "There are only two people in this store, me and the shopkeeper Zhu, I'm afraid there won't be many free times." What's more, I'm a worker, so it's always hard to read other people's books. ”

"If you do well, there's always a chance!" If you have money in the future, you must let Gorou go to school, Xu Xiangwan said silently in his heart.

The brothers and sisters talked one by one, and after a while, they returned to the entrance of Xujia Village.

"Brother, take advantage of the fact that it's not too late, go to the mountains and have a look?" Xu Xiangwan has some expectations for this mountain forest.

There are treasures in the mountains, but I don't know if she can find them, Xu Xiangwan sighed in his heart.
