Chapter 95: Ready to Go
Qi Xu and the others were almost at the big iron gate when they heard a female voice that she was very familiar with from behind.
"The salary in my shop is based on performance, but I simply peel the pearls from scallops, clams, or conchs, and then sort them into different categories. Each type of pearl is weighed and settled daily. There are no fixed working hours."
"Well... to put it simply, the ships that go out to sea are not on a regular basis, so they can only go out to sea and use fishing nets to catch seafood..."
"I'll go! I'll go!"
Before Qi Xu finished speaking, Tong Xiuyuan nodded rapidly.
She silently calculated in her mind that she could get paid daily, or the more she worked, the more she would get paid. This was a rare and fair way of settling wages. If she missed this opportunity, she would probably never encounter it again.
"Okay, I know your name. You can go directly to the store and register your name. I will reserve your seat in advance."
Qi Xu was very happy that Tong Xiuyuan could figure it out now. She had calculated Tong Xiuyuan's birth date and horoscope before, and it seemed that they were quite compatible. If they could work together in the future, their business would probably be even better.
When doing business, of course it will be better to find an employee who can bring good luck to you. When it comes to making money, who doesn’t want to make more?
"Thank you, thank you, thank you very much. May I ask...what is your name...?"
Tong Xiuyuan was a little nervous. She didn't expect that she would be so lucky to get such a good job, and she really wanted to know her boss's name.
"Qi Xu, my name is Qi Xu, this is my husband Jiang Hongyi, and this old man is Mr. Tian. You will see them often in the store in the future."
Qi Xu noticed that Tong Xiuyuan was a little embarrassed, so he took the initiative to step forward, took her hand and answered her gently.
Unexpectedly, Tong Xiuyuan's eyes were filled with tears in an instant, and she wanted to kneel down with trembling body.
"No, no, no, I'm inviting you to work in my shop, not enslaving you. You must not kneel down to me."
Qi Xu supported her body as she was about to kneel down and comforted her.
"Thank you, thank you so much, Boss Qi."
Qi Xu finally managed to comfort her and calm her down, and said that the resignation should be handled step by step. The store would be able to operate normally in about three or four days after the decoration was almost completed.
After comforting Tong Xiuyuan, they did not leave immediately, but went to the truck parking area not far away.
This time it was Jiang Hongyi's turn to negotiate the price of the truck carrying the raw crystal stones, but the truck driver would not refuse the opportunity to make extra money now.
They are now waiting for tasks to be assigned by the mine. Not everyone has the opportunity to drive and transport goods every day. Some people like to build relationships behind the scenes, so many people have never received delivery orders.
Jiang Hongyi's conversation was quick and simple. Within a few minutes, he had identified two drivers specifically for delivery and left the contact information of the security guard of the family compound.
After finishing all this, Jiang Hongyi took the two of them to register at a guesthouse near the bus station. In order to prevent Mr. Tian from noticing anything unusual, he only booked two rooms.
Afterwards, we found a restaurant near the guesthouse to fill our stomachs.
It's almost three o'clock in the afternoon. Riding in the car early in the morning and fighting wits and courage with the big devil not only consumed my physical strength, but also a lot of brain cells.
Fortunately, the restaurant also had cold beef, which could supplement protein. The three of them all liked noodles, so they simply ordered three bowls of noodles, two vegetarian dishes and a plate of one pound of cold beef.
"I didn't expect that after following you two, I would be treated so well and even get to eat beef."
Mr. Tian had beef stuffed in his mouth, his speech was a little unclear, and he squinted his eyes to enjoy the chewiness of the cold beef.
"You really are doing us a great favor. We're just asking you to do some hard labor, so shouldn't we reward you?"
Qi Xu knew that Mr. Tian was joking, so he didn't let the words fall on the ground.
Today's itinerary can come to an end. The mine leader said that the newly mined crystal raw stones will not be sorted until tomorrow noon. During this time in between, Qi Xu and the others can arrange their schedules freely.
Of course, having contributed so much strength in the first half of the day, Qi Xu’s first choice was to replenish his energy by sleeping.
Jiang Hongyi and Mr. Tian both agreed to this suggestion. The three of them returned to their rooms to rest until the afternoon and plan other things.
However, after Qi Xu and Jiang Hongyi entered the room, they looked at each other in confusion as they saw the big bed in the room.
"Well...don't worry, I'll sleep on the floor."
"Your hands are like this, and you're still sleeping on the floor? Just lie down on the bed!"
Qi Xu tugged at his sleeve in a bad mood and pulled him to sit on the edge of the bed. "Wait a minute, I'll go to the service desk downstairs to ask someone for some disinfectant. Your hands will easily get inflamed if you don't disinfect them like this."
Without waiting for him to speak, Qi Xu opened the door and went downstairs in one go, causing Jiang Hongyi to close his mouth again after having opened it for a long time.
Generally, the service desk of a guest house has a first aid kit ready for emergencies.
Qi Xu successfully obtained iodine, cotton swabs and gauze. After going upstairs to the room, he pulled a small stool and sat next to Jiang Hongyi, regardless of whether he was willing or not, and began to disinfect and wrap the gauze by himself.
"It's really not that serious." Jiang Hongyi said this, but he felt very warm in his heart.
"Don't take it lightly. There are many blood vessels and tendons on your palm. If you're not careful, it will get inflamed."
Qi Xu said this with malicious intent, and slapped the wound. Seeing him frown with satisfaction, he said, "Tsk tsk tsk, it looks like it still hurts. If it hurts, be obedient and rest."
Then she pressed Jiang Hongyi's body on the bed, covered him with a quilt, ran to the other side, took off her shoes, got on the bed, covered herself with the quilt, and closed her eyes, all in one go.
This made Jiang Hongyi's feet, with shoes sticking out of the quilt, freeze at the edge of the bed for a long time. He hesitated and kicked his shoes with both feet, and they fell to the ground with a clang. He silently retracted his feet and covered the quilt.
Perhaps because Qi Xu was lying next to him, Jiang Hongyi fell asleep quickly.
“Boom boom boom!”
"Xiao Qi, Jiang kid is almost up, the sun is about to set. I think the scenery around here is nice, we can go for a stroll after dinner."
When Qi Xu woke up from a daze after hearing a knock on the door, he saw Jiang Hongyi sitting on the other side of the bed buttoning his clothes.
It seems that this person is really sleeping soundly.
"Come on, Mr. Tian, let's get up."
After Qi Xu responded, Jiang Hongyi folded the quilt and went to open the door.
After the three of them went downstairs, they went to the place with beautiful scenery that Mr. Tian mentioned.
This place is much more beautiful than the mine. There are trees, grass, and some unknown small flowers. Even the air is much fresher.
Moreover, Qi Xu could see with his naked eyes that there were many five elements floating in the air, and even golden elements were rippling.
Gold? Doesn't that mean there's gold nearby? Or something metallic buried in the soil?
"Mr. Tian, I have a feeling there's something good in that area. Let's go take a look together. What if we find something unexpected?"
