Chapter 137: The Trick of Fate
In this era of rampant materialism and demons, sometimes I really can't tell the truth from the false, and I don't know whether it is Zhuang Zhou dreaming of butterflies or butterflies dreaming of Zhuang Zhou.
The protagonist of this fantasy story is Li Xuefei, 26 years old, who now works in a Cantonese restaurant in Sydney. After graduating from university, he came to Australia on a working holiday visa to work and travel as a backpacker.
Just came to this unfamiliar foreign big city, Li Xuefei really found it difficult to adapt to life here for a while.
But fortunately, with the help of nobles along the way, he still barely managed to gain a foothold in this foreign land.
He works in a shopping mall next to a local university, where there is a large chain of Cantonese restaurants owned by Malaysians.
Come to work every day like a machine, 10 hours a day, 50 hours a week. It's a little better than in China, after all, the salary is high enough to take care of the food, you must know that it is very expensive to eat Chinese food in a foreign country. Li Xuefei had not done such a job before, but he had learned a few months of chef skills training, so he could only start as a small worker, also known as a kitchen helper.
On this day, after the check-in, Li Xuefei started a busy and intense day of work as usual.
Because this restaurant has a central kitchen that delivers good materials, Li Xuefei only needs to handle it simply, and is responsible for chores such as frying by the way.
"You're going to have to be quicker today. ”
This person who spoke was none other than Li Xuefei's top boss who was responsible for playing lotus and so on. Because this foreign restaurant has a lot of labor and expensive, it often wears multiple jobs.
This big guy is in his forties, and he from Chongqing later married to Hong Kong, and now he has immigrated to Australia. She actually looks down on the mainland a little, although she was born in the mainland.
Because I don't know Cantonese, Li Xuefei After I finished speaking Mandarin, she went to speak Cantonese with others again.
As for Li Xuefei, anyway, he works and gets money, no one knows him in a foreign country, he doesn't worry about it, and he is not afraid of losing face or anything. This big guy is called Andella, haha, that's right, it's similar to Yang Tianbao, but there is no such thing as that Beibei.
Others called her Andr La Beibei, but Li Xuefei never dared to call her that, and there was no need, just do your job.
She treats other people very well, especially those who speak Cantonese, but she is very strict with Li Xuefei, and he doesn't know whether this is good or bad.
She always said that Li Xuefei was slow to work, and she must not be able to keep up with the rhythm of Christmas, dragging everyone back. Let's talk about it here, Australia's weekly salary system, pay wages on Thursdays, and the malls are open until nine o'clock from Thursday to Sunday, which is too common in China.
The ghost guy doesn't have any habit of saving money, so on Thursday, the restaurant is overcrowded, and he has to be hey when he gets paid.
Christmas is even more terrifying, and I heard that it is the busiest day of the year in the restaurant, and the kitchen has so many orders that it can cover the entire floor.
Because Li Xuefei is half a layman, and he was not born in Guangdong, it was really difficult to start this job.
Fortunately, there is still a bit of common sense of a chef, after all, training is not for nothing, so there will be no big mess.
On this day, as usual, I worked until nine o'clock in the evening, and Li Xuefei began to prepare for the end of the gear with her tired body. Today's business is average, because it's Wednesday after all.
Li Xuefei, as usual, put the unused ingredients into the wind cabinet, which is a room, and there is a room in it that is a freezer.
Li Xuefei wanted to go home early after work to sleep, so he hurriedly cleaned up quickly and clocked out of work. As a result, halfway through, suddenly a clever one, a whole plate of marinated ribs forgot to put in the freezer, if it stinks tomorrow, Android can't scold himself, and suddenly he is completely sleepy.
Fortunately, she didn't get in the car, Li Xuefei hurried back to the mall, and the mall was about to get off work. A chubby Australian local security uncle was about to close the door, and Li Xuefei ran back just before the door closed.
Li Xuefei explained to the uncle in broken English that he was an employee and had something to put in, and the uncle didn't seem to understand too much, and then Li Xuefei thought about going in quickly and putting it away, so he semi-forcibly went in.
This uncle doesn't have a strong sense of responsibility, and when he saw this oriental guy enter, he didn't care too much about it as if he was working here.
Li Xuefei, as soon as he entered the store where he worked, the bigwigs had already gotten off work. The whole plate of ribs hidden under the cabinet was only known to Li Xuefei, and sure enough, these bigwigs didn't find it, so Li Xuefei hurriedly put the ribs into the room of the freezer.
As soon as you open it, you will see a slowly piled up windcabinet room, and inside is the freezer room.
Hurry up in the wind cabinet where there is almost no place to stay, Li Xuefei took a plate of pork ribs and put it into the freezer with difficulty, and now he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Fate is sometimes a wonderful thing, and at this time, on the shelves near the door of the windrow room, a few plates of tofu fell and smashed right on the doorknob, locking the handle from the outside.
At this time, Li Xuefei, who put away the ribs and was about to turn back, found that the door of the freezer was closed. This is a very common thing, but what is a little unusual today is that Li Xuefei pushed it but didn't push it.
Li Xuefei thought that he was not using enough force, so he pushed hard, but it was still useless, and something seemed to be wrong.
It's so cold, Li Xuefei is wearing short sleeves, but it is so cold in the freezer, he began to panic a little, desperately slamming the door and kicking the door, but to no avail, and even because of the vibration, a shelf full of things outside the door fell down.
Now Li Xuefei knew the seriousness of the problem, and his body had begun to shiver from the cold. He took out his mobile phone from his pocket and wanted to make a call, but he had no friends in Australia and didn't know the local police number, as if he only had a colleague's number.
Before he could dial it out, Li Xuefei found that there was no signal at all. Despair began to swell from this moment, although he was ordinary, he could not be so unlucky.
It was getting colder and colder, Li Xuefei felt a little about to fall asleep, but at this moment, he felt a little warm.
His own parents, his fantasy girlfriend, Li Xuefei imagined the scene with them.
The Australian security guard outside the mall came back and locked the door after a turn, he thought that the oriental guy had gone out.
In this way, gradually Li Xuefei felt less uncomfortable, he felt that this was good, he closed his eyes. At this moment, no amount of regret helps, he feels that he is relaxed at the moment and no longer has any pressure.
Suddenly, he felt a cold drop fall on his face, and he slowly opened his eyes.
Where is this?
