Chapter 61: Mom-and-pop shop
"Want to help?"
Lin Baoyue stood outside the counter, looking inside at the shopkeeper struggling to clean the broken porcelain pieces on the ground, and she was anxious to urinate!
This is not ordinary clumsiness, this hand and foot is not her own at all!
"Yes, you can do it!"
The female shopkeeper was sweating in a hurry, and when she heard Lin Baoyue say this, she immediately got up and took off the gloves she was wearing, and made a 'please' gesture when she gave up the place!
Oh, you're welcome!
Xiao Yizhou stopped her and said that he would go, but Lin Baoyue didn't let him, let him find a place to sit by himself for a while!
Instead, he found the broom and dustpan from the stairwell behind the counter, then walked into the counter, swept all the broken porcelain pieces into the dustpan three times and divided them by two, and asked the unreliable shopkeeper to find a few unused waste newspapers, and then spread them on the ground, and then poured the broken porcelain pieces in the dustpan on the newspaper, and threw them into the trash can!
The whole process took up to three minutes!
"Still, can you do this?"
The female shopkeeper was stunned and watched Lin Baoyue put the broom and dustpan back into the stairwell, and then the other party looked at her like an idiot and asked, "Otherwise, what are you doing with this broom and dustpan?" Decorative? ”
It's really laughing to death, you broke so many plates and cups, you squatted there and picked up piece by piece, picking up the Year of the Monkey?
The female shopkeeper ignored Lin Baoyue's ridicule, but pointed to the trash can and asked, "Why do you use newspaper bags?" ”
"Prevent the garbage collector from scratching his hands!"
After speaking, Lin Baoyue looked her up and down curiously, and asked, "Haven't you worked?" Was it the eldest lady before? ”
She deliberately accentuated the word 'before', because from the other party's exquisite clothing and demeanor, it can be seen that he is from a good background and has a higher education!
But judging from the fact that the experience of this shop is so bleak but she insists on opening it, and she, as the owner of the shop, is here as a waitress herself, her current situation should not be as good as before!
"Are you a fortune teller? Is his mouth so poisonous at a young age? ”
The woman wrinkled her eyebrows and glared at Lin Baoyue, but waved her hand and said to herself, "Forget it, for the sake of your help, I don't care about you as a child!" Say, what would you like to drink? ”
"Is it free?"
You've said that for my help, shouldn't the next sentence be 'I'll ask you'?"
Who knew that the woman glared and said, "I haven't opened for a day, I finally came to the two of you, and I don't want to give money, are you embarrassed?" ”
Lin Baoyue: .......
"If the two of us don't come, you'll be in vain for the day?"
"Yes! I'm glad I don't have rent, otherwise I would have lost a lot! ”
"Own shop? Upstairs too? ”
"yes, let's order first, what do you want to drink? Let me tell you little girl, the coffee I have here is all authentic Irish imported coffee beans, nothing else, and my coffee making skills are also first-class, do you want to try Mocha? White coffee is fine, the taste is lighter, add more sugar, little girls like you like it! ”
Lin Baoyue looked up at the sign above and found that the price of each type of coffee was more than 30 yuan, which was almost the same as 20 years later!
The strange owner adds an expensive price, it would be strange if this store could be popular!
The coffee beans imported from the UK are useless if you import them from Mars!
Do you know this in the college district, sister? You are dealing with college students who ask for money from their families, of course there are those who have money, but most of them are still ordinary families, and they are not yet extravagant enough to spend more than thirty or forty to taste a cup of imported coffee!
After all, five yuan for a meal can be solved now, and thirty is enough for a student to eat for three days!
"Two cups of mocha!"
Lin Baoyue said and took out a fifty yuan sheet and slapped it on the counter, then dragged a high stool from the side, and sat in front of the counter and watched the woman make coffee!
Xiao Yizhou also dragged a stool over and sat beside her!
The woman's action of making coffee is very elegant, putting coffee beans, picking up coffee, adding chocolate sauce, putting milk, and then squeezing whipped cream...... The movements are smooth and do not drag mud and water, which is completely different from the clumsiness of cleaning up broken porcelain pieces before!
"I heard that Mocha originated in Italy, and you use coffee beans imported from Ireland to brew it, does it taste authentic?"
"Yo, you know something!"
The woman smiled and put two cups of coffee in front of the two of them, hugged her shoulders and said, "I have used up the coffee beans in Italy, so I can only use this brew now, but the taste is very good, can you taste it?" ”
Lin Baoyue took a sip, a little bitter!
She picked up a sugar cube and threw it inside, stirring it and asking, "Your waiters won't all quit you, will they?" That's why you're a boss and a waiter? ”
The woman stared at Lin Baoyue for a few seconds, and then sneered, "Little girl, you are not very old, you have just entered your freshman year, right?" Why are the eyes so poisonous? It's like being able to see through people, it's not cute at all! ”
Lin Baoyue is right, the woman just fired the last waiter two days ago because she couldn't afford to pay her salary!
Lin Baoyue turned his head and looked at the elegant and exquisite coffee shop, the area is not small, at least 100 square meters!
It's a pity that this location is such a good shop that sells coffee!
She tilted her head to look at the woman and smiled, "Do you want to consider renting out the shop?" ”
"Don't rent, unless you don't move me to decorate and continue to open a coffee shop, otherwise you won't rent!"
Obviously, Lin Baoyue is not the first woman to ask such a question, so she answered quickly and categorically!
"I can leave you untouched, but I can't keep opening a coffee shop!"
"That's not to talk about!" The woman said it firmly!
Lin Baoyue smiled, did not continue to dwell on this topic, and seeing that the time was about the same, he put down the coffee that was still half left, got up and left side by side with Xiao Yizhou.
"Why are you renting a shop?"
Xiao Yizhou asked while holding her hand in the palm of his hand and kneading it gently, he liked this action very much, feeling that her hand was like no bones, soft and comfortable to pinch!
"Of course it's business, and with so much time in college, it's a shame not to find something to do! Why don't we open a mom-and-pop shop? ”
The last sentence Lin Baoyue was purely joking, she was used to being nonsense, and in the case of no harm, she really thought of something to say!
But Xiao Yizhou took it seriously!
He looked at her with bright eyes, thought for a while and said, "I have about 20,000 yuan in deposit, next time I go home, I will give you the bank card, how can you use it yourself!" ”
Lin Baoyue turned her head to look at him, opened her mouth, and before she could speak, she saw him bow his head and whisper in her ear, "There is still some time, find a quiet place to sing to me, huh?" ”
He had to hear the song she sang at their school yesterday, or he wouldn't be able to sleep at night!
Lin Baoyue: .......
