Looking at this old guy up close, he is a little different from an ordinary old man. His skin looked a little more delicate, not as dull as other old men, but with a full glow.

A face with a slightly unhappy look, as if someone owes him millions.

Chen Xiao naturally heard that this old man's voice was exactly the one he heard on the phone twice. The old man seemed to be eccentric, and after he finished speaking coldly, he lowered his head and continued to read, and finished reading a chapter without hurrying, and then he carefully took out a thin bookmark carved in ivory from his pocket and sandwiched it into the chapter page he read, and then closed the book, raised his head and looked at Chen Xiao.

"You are Chen Xiao?" The old man snorted, his voice dry, but he did not hide his dissatisfaction: "Hmph, it's just a little kid." Do those guys think I'm a babysitter? Why do you send anyone to me! ”

Although he said it very politely, Chen Xiao was not annoyed - this old man's hair is gray, and he is more than enough to be his grandfather in terms of age, and it is not ashamed to be called a "little kid" by him.

An old man and a young man looked at each other with wide eyes for a while, the old man's eyes became brighter and brighter, as if he wanted to read something from Chen Xiao's eyes, but after staring at Chen Xiao for a long time, Chen Xiao's eyes did not dodge and retreat at all.

"Hmph, boy, it seems to be a stubborn temper too." The old man's voice was a little softer: "Okay, find a place to sit down yourself." As he spoke, he casually pointed in the store.

Chen Xiao didn't shirk it, and directly found a sofa closest to the counter and sat down.

The old man took out two cans of beer from under the counter and sat in front of Chen Xiao, he was wearing a flower shirt, but his body was as thin as a bamboo pole, and the wide shirt was swaying, as if it would be blown away by the wind at any time.

"Drink, you're welcome." The old man opened a can of beer and handed it to Chen Xiao: "I don't like others to interrupt when I speak, so if you want to ask anything, put up with it for me first." My old man's time is precious, and after I'm done, I'll allow you to ask questions before you can ask them, understand? ”

Chen Xiao took a sip of beer and nodded—although this place was full of weirdness, this old man didn't look like a normal person. However, since it was the stronghold of the supernatural organization "Service Society", Chen Xiao had already been mentally prepared.

"My surname is Ai, Edward." The old man opened his mouth and said his name.

“edward？” Chen Xiao couldn't help but interject.

Syllable!!

I saw the old man sitting on the sofa opposite, flicking his finger at himself - Chen Xiao had just finished saying such a short sentence when he felt a hard blow on his head! There was a burning pain on his forehead, and when he wiped it, it actually swollen up!

Seeing that the old man's fingers were still so far away from him, the pain of being knocked on his forehead just now was clear.

Depend on! Finger Magic?! Chen Xiao couldn't help but widen his eyes, looking at the old man's thick and short fingers.

"I said I don't like people to interject when I speak! Why didn't the young man remember xìng! The old man yīn had a calm face: "Also, it's not Edward!" It's Edward! The wormwood of wormwood, the virtue of virtue, the Hua of China! Remembered. Next time you call me by name, be careful that I knock out your front teeth. ”

When the old man spoke, his tone was clearly a little disdainful and impatient, and his eyes were full of arrogance and arrogance, as if he could sit here and talk to Chen Xiao, he had already given the other party a lot of face.

Although Chen Xiao was beaten very painfully, considering the identity and age of the other party, he endured it.

"Your situation, that little bastard of Lei Hu has already told me. Although I don't like to do this kind of work as a nanny, after all, I am also a retired person from the organization, and I can't ignore the things that are assigned to me...... So, you kid will ask for more blessings for yourself in the future! Hmph, my old man's temper is not very good, and you will have to suffer by my side in the future. ”

Chen Xiao frowned, his eyes were a little puzzled, Edward saw that he had something to say, so he waved his hand: "Say what you want to say!" ”

"Thunderfox promised me that I was just here to do a job, and it has nothing to do with your organization! It's a normal person's job! If you want me to join your organization, that's not going to happen. ”

"Aha!" Instead, the old man Edward laughed, squinting his eyes and looking at Chen Xiao: "Are you holding the shelf upside down?" Don't worry, boy, hum, our organization, how many people cry and shout and beg can't get in. That little bastard Lei Hu values you, and my old man won't treat you as a baby. ”

"That's good." Chen Xiao breathed a sigh of relief: "May I ask what is my job?" ”

"This is it." The old man waved his hand imposingly: "This is the coffee shop." You'll take care of it for me. Originally, I didn't want you to come over so early, but I suddenly had something to do and leave something. That's why I had to call you first. ”

As he spoke, he glanced at Chen Xiao, and his eyes were a little uneasy: "A child of your age, I don't know if you can do the work here." ”

Chen Xiao thought for a moment: "I have worked in restaurants and fast food restaurants, and I have also worked in coffee shops, and I can also make coffee. Then he looked at the huge empty shop hall and couldn't help but smile: "Besides, I guess the work here is not too busy." ”

"Hmph, don't get complacent too soon, do you think it's that simple?" Old Edward shook his head and sneered, then coughed: "That's the treatment, three thousand a month, two free meals a day." In my absence, cashiers, waiters, and cooks ...... You're all on your own. To put it simply, it is a bare-rod commander. ”

"Well, if there aren't many guests, I'll be able to handle it alone." Chen Xiao nodded: "I will work hard." ”

"Don't say it too soon. I don't usually have many customers here, but all the customers who come here are some old customers - those old customers are troublesome guys, you have to be careful not to anger people, otherwise, most of those guys have a bad temper, if you get into trouble, but you will have to suffer. ”

As he spoke, the old man had already stood up: "Lei Hu must have told you that my place is a place similar to the placement of retired personnel." Many of my regular customers here are old people from the service agency. It can be said that they are basically not normal human beings...... Hmph, you'll get to know it slowly. ”

Syllable. The old man suddenly shook his hand, and a bunch of keys fell in front of Chen Xiao.

"The door of the store, the storeroom at the back, the cash register door, and a small safe in the back - all the keys are here, I don't bother to introduce them to you one by one, you can find them yourself after I leave."

The old man coughed twice and said leisurely, "I shouldn't be away for too long, but I can't say for sure...... Uh, anyway, there's money in the safe, and if I haven't come back yet, you can take the paycheck yourself. ”

Chen Xiao stared at the old man with a strange expression......

Lost the key to the safe? Where is there such a boss who trusts his employees?

"I'd like to tell you one more thing. It doesn't matter if you open the door for business or not, you don't have to open the door during the day, but I only have one requirement, which is that it must be open every Thursday night! Even if you don't have a single guest in the evening, you have to make sure it's open until 12 o'clock! Not a minute is missing! Do you understand? As long as you do that, I don't care what you do for the rest of the week. ”

Chen Xiao couldn't help but be thundered.

And there are people who do business? Just one night a week? And then you can get a salary of three thousand a month?

"Don't worry, what you do is normal work, serving tea and water, collecting money to make coffee. Won't let you do any special tasks - besides, let you do anything else, do you have the ability! After the old man finished speaking, he glanced at the clock on the wall and frowned: "It's not early, I'm leaving." Remember what I said. Usually when you visit the store, if you are bored, you can read the books I put under the counter casually, but be careful not to lose them, they are all collector's editions. ”

After saying that, the old man stood up so easily and walked to the door with a big grin.

Chen Xiao was stunned for a moment, he had never seen such an irresponsible interview since he worked!

"Please wait a minute." Chen Xiao couldn't help but scream.

"What else?" Old Edward turned around, and looked impatient: "Didn't I say it clearly enough? The work is also very simple, even an idiot can do it well, what else do you not understand? ”

"Yes...... That is true. Chen Xiao thought for a moment: "The two rows of words at the door ......"

Chen Xiao's face was a little ridiculous: "Could it be ...... If a beautiful woman comes, do you really want to get it free? ”

"Of course!" The old man's eyes lit up, and he immediately puffed up his chest, and said proudly: "This is my old man's signboard!" You remember it too! If a beautiful woman comes to drink, you are not allowed to take money! ”

Chen Xiao nodded helplessly, but thought in her heart: Beauty? I didn't even see a female rabbit all the way over! This kind of unfinished commercial area is half a breath away from bankruptcy, where will there be beautiful women here to drink coffee?

It's a pity that Chen Xiao didn't expect that his words were too early and too arbitrary. In fact, he should have realized that since he knew these people, he could no longer use common sense to measure these people and these things......
