15 The Seventh Store
◎He's here.◎
Arriving at the hotel, Lu Yao asked Ji Feiming to rest in the coffee shop on the first floor, and went up to the third floor.
Coming down the elevator, the door of Room 305 was open.
Lu Yao stood at the door and knocked on it, attracting the attention of the three young people on the sofa.
Assistant Zheng had met Lu Yao twice, but Fu Chi did not reveal this information before the interview, and he and the other two girls were equally surprised.
Lu Yao briefly introduced himself and sat down opposite the three of them.
Bai Lu couldn't help but look at Ji Qingyan. Lu Yao
smiled and asked gently, "What's wrong?"
Bai Lu was a little embarrassed: "You are so young."
When her cousin contacted her, his tone was serious and solemn, as if the position he was competing for was not a hotel receptionist, but a rare position.
Arriving at the interview location, Bai Lu had a brief conversation with Ji Qingyan and Assistant Zheng while waiting. She was secretly shocked and thought that this interview might not be as simple as it seemed.
But when she saw Lu Yao, Bai Lu felt that she might have thought too much.
This boss was too young, even younger than the other two interviewees.
Lu Yao nodded slightly, and did not expand on this topic. He got straight to the point: "My family's hotel is quite special. It can be simply understood as a building block theme hotel... If you have any questions, feel free to ask."
They had already heard about the recruitment requirements, working hours and salary from the introducer. Lu Yao just repeated it again and observed their reactions.
Ji Qingyan: "Why do you want to open a building block theme hotel?"
This question is like the interviewer asking "Why choose our company".
Bai Lu thought that this little sister from the Ji family has a good resume and a strong aura. Why did she come to the interview with her?
Lu Yao: "Because I want to."
Bai Lu couldn't help but sit up straight: The boss is also very arrogant.
Assistant Zheng's full name is Zheng Ziyang. He was absent-minded throughout the interview and paid almost no attention to the interview. It was obvious that
he was perfunctory. Lu Yao glanced at him a few times. Compared with the last time they met, he looked much more haggard.
After a detailed chat, Lu Yao was actually very satisfied with several people, but she also saw that she might not be able to recruit the right person today.
Zheng Ziyang: "Sorry, boss, my health is not very good, I am afraid I can't do this job."
Lu Yao nodded to show her understanding, thinking that Fu Chi was also a bit naive. How could his chief assistant calmly accept such a huge gap?
Bai Lu shyly replied: "I want to find a job with two days off a week."
After receiving a contact from her family, she heard that this job was easy. Bai Lu imagined that after joining the company, she could go to work and continue to shoot videos and do accounting.
After communicating with Lu Yao, Bai Lu felt that the work took up more time than expected.
Moreover, it was just an ordinary hotel reception. Bai Lu privately felt that she had just graduated and she could still try to find a more suitable job.
Lu Yao was not surprised either.
Finally, it was Ji Qingyan.
She stood up and shook hands with Lu Yao: "When will you start work?"
Bai Lu was shocked.
She thought Ji Qingyan was the least likely person among the three of them to accept this job.
Seeing that Lu Yao was also a little surprised, Ji Qingyan couldn't help laughing: "If I wasn't interested, I wouldn't come for the interview. After talking to you, I think I should like this job."
Lu Yao also laughed: "You can go there with Xiao Ji later and meet other colleagues first."
Ji Qingyan was stunned and said "OK".
After the interview, Lu Yao had to go to the hospital for a physical examination.
It was a rare opportunity for her to go out, and she wanted to get everything done.
Ji Qingyan saw Ji Feiming downstairs and was stunned for a long time.
Little Ji = Uncle Ming?
She sat in the back seat and listened to Lu Yao chatting with Uncle Ming.
Lu Yao said he was going for a physical examination.
Ji Feiming looked worried: "Are you feeling unwell?" Lu Yao:
"It's a routine check-up. I have time today. You can take Qingyan back first, not alone in the hotel."
Ji Feiming: "We'll wait for you to go back together, or I'll come and pick you up then." Lu Yao
shook his head: "No, I have other things to do, I'll go back by myself then."
Ji Feiming stopped talking.
Ji Qingyan tried to stay calm.
As her name suggests, she belongs to a more remote branch of the Ji family, and she felt puzzled when she was notified of the interview this time.
Her family also asked her to deal with it.
If it was a good opportunity, how could it be her turn?
Ji Qingyan originally thought so, but after the interview, she was really interested in Lu Yao's hotel, so she changed her mind.
She never expected that the last envoy of the Ji family is now Lu Yao's driver.
In this case, the legendary cousin is probably also working in Lu Yao's store.
Ji Qingyan realized later that this job might be more interesting than she thought.
---
Lu Yao had made an appointment in advance. In order to cooperate with the physical examination, she had not eaten or drunk water. She went directly to the hospital for the physical examination.
While waiting for the physical examination results to come out, she was really hungry. She found a dessert shop at the corner of the street outside the hospital, ordered three desserts in one breath, a cup of coffee with milk and sugar, and chose a secluded seat to sit down.
Since taking over the shopping street, Lu Yao has not been out for a long time. He suddenly ate outside and felt that the taste was quite fresh.
"I love him more than you do, and he also said that I understand him and feel sorry for him more than you do... How great it would be if I met him earlier than you."
Lu Yao was eating with her head down, her seat was close to the inner wall, and the table behind her was next to the corner.
There were not many people in the store at this time, and suddenly she heard such a confession from the next door, and her hand paused slightly.
The girl's voice was crying, and it seemed to contain the pain of struggle.
Lu Yao leaned his head slightly, but the partition was a little high, so he didn't see anyone. There
was silence for a long time on the other side, and then a slightly tired voice sounded: "He wants to leave, but he doesn't have a mouth or legs? Can't he just say so and leave?"
The woman's tone was calm, and a little helpless.
The girl with a younger voice began to talk about how she and the man loved each other, from warmth and sweetness to despair and sadness, as if the woman was the biggest obstacle between the two people's love. There was
a crisp sound when the glass lightly hit the table, and the woman finally spoke again: "My daughter's chemotherapy time has come."
The other side suddenly stopped talking.
The woman waved, called the waiter to settle the bill, paid for her own cup of tea, and then got up with her bag.
A thin but good-tempered woman passed by the aisle, and Lu Yao couldn't help but look back.
The cell phone rang. Lu Yao received a message from Bai Jing, saying that the results of the medical examination were in.
She lowered her head and ate her snacks in a few bites, picked up the coffee cup and drank it all in one gulp, then stood up and walked out of the cafe.
Three young people walked past the door, carrying some fruits and snacks in their hands.
Lu Yao didn't say anything. Bai Jin saw her first and waved at her in surprise: "Owner!!!"
Bai Zheng turned around when he heard the voice and was also surprised to see Lu Yao: "Why is the owner here?" Lu
Yao smiled slightly: "I came here for a physical examination. I'll come and eat something when the results come out."
Bai Jin looked Lu Yao up and down: "Are you feeling unwell?"
Lu Yao shook his head: "No problem, I just happened to have time to come out and do a check-up."
Bai Zheng nodded in agreement: "Your store is so busy, it would be safer to do regular check-ups."
Bai Lu was originally sandwiched between the two of them, but she didn't expect that her cousin and cousin both knew Lu Yao, so she had to say something: "See you again, Boss Lu."
Lu Yao: "Just call me by my name."
The three of them also went to find Bai Jing, so they walked towards the hospital together.
Bai Jin and Bai Zheng heard that the shopping street had closed for the holiday and was now open for business, so they said they would definitely go there to have fun before returning to school.
When they arrived at the hospital, Bai Jing first gave Lu Yao the medical report, and the two talked in the office.
Bai Lu then had the opportunity to ask Bai Jing and Bai Zheng, "Is this boss Lu a big shot?"
Bai Jin smiled, "She's very special, although you can't tell on the surface."
Bai Zheng asked, "How do you know Lu Yao?"
Bai Lu had just arrived in the Luguang City, and today they were the hosts, specifically taking this little cousin around to have some fun, and having dinner with Bai Jing.
Bai Lu told them about the interview.
Bai Jin didn't know about this yet: "Lu Yao actually opened a new store, why didn't she tell me just now."
Bai Zheng was more concerned about another point: "Have you told her not to go?"
Bai Lu was a little confused: "I think it's not what I expected, can't I refuse?"
Bai Zheng and Bai Jin looked at each other, shook their heads and said nothing more.
Bai Jin: "It's not a big deal."
Bai Jing accompanied Lu Yao out. He already knew the result of the interview. Although he felt a little regretful, he didn't say much.
Lu Yao's physical examination results were normal. The blood, bones, internal organs and various values were all within the normal range.
She said goodbye to the Bai brothers and sisters and turned to leave.
Bai Jin suddenly grabbed her and pulled her to a corner: "Shopkeeper, if you are hiring again, can you let me have a try?"
Bai Jin knew that Bai Yi worked in the shopping street. They had chatted a few days ago. The cousin said mysteriously that the work was interesting and suitable for her major, but it was a pity that they could not talk in detail.
Lu Yao looked at her and whispered: "Does your family agree?"
Bai Jin: "It's in the city anyway, isn't it good for Yi to work there?" Lu Yao
nodded: "Okay, I'll let you know if there is a suitable position next time."
Bai Zheng was eavesdropping on the corner and raised his hand: "Lu Yao, I want to come too."
Bai Lu was confused.
...That's not what you two said just now.
--- Lu
Yao took the elevator downstairs. The elevator entrance was at the end of the corridor, and there was a bathroom next to it.
She was going to use the ring to go back to the paradise directly, so she turned in another direction and walked towards the bathroom.
A quarrel was heard at the door. The man accused in a cold voice, while the woman sniffed and said nothing.
The man cursed harder and harder, and his voice became louder and louder.
Lu Yao frowned, hesitating between going in or leaving.
She saw a familiar figure in the mirror of the sink, hesitated for a few seconds, and decided to go in.
Footsteps were heard, and the cursing stopped abruptly. The man pushed the woman, turned around with a cold face and prepared to leave.
With a crisp "pop", the man covered his face and looked at the woman in disbelief. At this time, Lu Yao was already standing at the door.
He bulged his eyes and stepped forward to fight.
Lu Yao raised his mobile phone and pretended to be video chatting with someone: "Well, I'm still in the hospital."
The man glared at the woman and turned away.
The woman didn't say anything. She washed her face with water at the sink, stood up slowly and exhaled.
Lu Yao and the woman's eyes met in the mirror. It was indeed the woman he had just met in the cafe.
Her face was haggard, her back was full of fatigue, but her eyes were firm and bright.
The two looked away for a second.
Lu Yao didn't say anything. He walked past her and went straight into the women's bathroom.
Lu Yao took out the ring only after hearing the sound of water stop and the footsteps gradually fade away.
---
Huanjie led Lu Yao into the amusement park. She put the physical examination report into her portable storage and took out a white hollow mask.
The NPCs in the park all knew her, so she was used to disguising herself to avoid being seen by too many players.
In the park, a live broadcast of an escape game was going on.
When Lu Yao came in, she felt something sticky under her feet again. She didn't look down and just walked forward.
The guests who were watching the live broadcast in the cinema of Dreamland were no longer as panicked as they were a year ago when they saw the owner suddenly come in. Soon an NPC came to lead her.
The NPC led Lu Yao past the players who were being hunted like a passerby, without looking away.
Zheng Ziyang was forced into a corner by a huge nightmare demon and was about to die. Suddenly, he saw a familiar piece of clothing from the corner of his eye. He was surprised and had no time to think, so he shouted: "Lu Yao?"
They had just met in the afternoon. Although he couldn't see his face, he would recognize the clothes.
Lu Yao paused slightly and didn't look back.
The nightmare demon did look back, turned his head, pierced Zheng Ziyang's chest with a claw, threw him out, and turned to walk towards Lu Yao. Lu
Yao stopped, "Qing?"
The Nightmare waved his claws lightly, and the NPC who led the way left. The Nightmare continued to lead Lu Yao and sent her to a familiar door.
---
Zheng Ziyang opened his eyes, his face and body were covered with cold sweat, and his consciousness was still lingering in the death experience just now.
After several minutes, he came back to his senses from the deep fear, found his mobile phone with trembling hands, and dialed Fu Chi's
number. "Boss, I want to see Lu...Boss Lu again."
---
The land of dreams, the realm of gods.
Lu Yao stood in front of the huge bone mound, holding the snacks packed in the cafe in his hand: "Master Demon, how are you recently?"
The wind was howling.
After a long time, the voice of the demon god came from all directions: "I can't do what you want."
Lu Yao took out the physical examination report from his portable storage: "Before coming to see you, I went to the hospital for a physical examination."
Demon god: "What did you gain?"
Lu Yao shook his head: "Everything is normal."
A gust of wind blew up, shaking the snack box in Lu Yao's hand into the bone mound.
Lu Yao sat down with his legs crossed, looking up at the bones buried deep in the yellow sand: "You are a kind god."
The demon god laughed: "The world calls me the god of death."
Lu Yao: "Maybe I haven't told you that I have a child. He is a child. After meeting him, I realized that even the Son of God cannot easily step into the land of the dead, but I... can."
Looking back now, Lu Mingxiao's identity in other worlds will disappear because of his departure.
Only in the dreamland chosen by the first store, he possessed Bai Ming's soul. After he left, Bai Ming did not disappear.
In other words, the God Slayer who could freely cross the world had to take a roundabout way to enter the land of the dead.
The demon was speechless.
Lu Yao: "Lord Demon, why is the starting point of the store the land of the dead?"
Demon: "...The plan you proposed the day before yesterday is not impossible to discuss if there is a sufficient price."
Lu Yao's mouth curled up a little, and he no longer mentioned the topic just now: "What do you want?"
Demon: "In this dead land that has not changed for thousands of years, what else can be used as a price?"
Lu Yao: "One hundred thousand years, is that enough for you?"
The demon's laughter was like the sound of wind pouring into the cave, getting louder and louder: "I will agree to you."
Lu Yao stood up and bowed deeply to the bone mound: "Thank you."
The demon's voice came from behind: "Lu Yao, the price you have to pay is probably much more than this."
Lu Yao waved his hand behind him and continued to walk back, one step deep and one step shallow, with a slightly changing smile on his face.
Gifts without a price are more terrifying.
One hundred thousand years passed in Lu Yao's hands, and the chief guard in the paradise immediately heard a new oracle.
He stood up suddenly.
Lu Yao came out of the divine realm and met the chief guard at the gate of the paradise.
Chief guard: "What did you say to the Lord Demon?" He could actually change his mind.
Lu Yao shook his head and didn't intend to say more. He just asked: "When can we start work?"
The chief guard was extremely curious, but he had to suppress it and discussed the intranet construction plan with Lu Yao again.
---
Coming out of the snack bar, it was already dark, and Lu Yao walked up to the hotel opposite.
She was busy walking outside all day, and she didn't know if there were any guests today. The employee contract had not been signed yet, and it was estimated that Ji Qingyan would have gone back by now.
By the way, I have to send Meilulu and Pushu back to the nail salon.
"Boss, you're back."
Lu Yao pushed open the door and heard Ji Qingyan's voice. He was stunned for a moment: "Why haven't you gone back yet?"
Ji Qingyan smiled brightly, as if she had changed into a different person: "Meilulu, Pushu, Black Thorn and Beef Balls have already rested. I haven't had enough fun yet. I want to wait for you to come back and sign the contract quickly."
In the afternoon, Ji Qingyan followed Ji Feiming to the shopping street. Seeing that Ji Zhixin was indeed there, she had a premonition in her heart.
This time, I'm afraid it's really a good thing that has fallen on her head.
When she walked into the hotel and saw the exquisite "doll house" placed under the window sill, her heart almost melted.
However, this was just the beginning. As soon as she sat down in front of the exquisite little house, several little people opened the door, swarmed out from the small door, and lay on the corridor and shouted, "Budu, Budu, we are hungry, do you have any snacks?"
Ji Qingyan sat stiffly in the same place, blinking hard, thinking she was hallucinating.
Ji Feiming bent down and explained to Budu, "Child, this is Ji Qingyan, the new hotel clerk hired by the owner today." Child
?
Ji Qingyan's eyes widened.
A child is here too?
Budu glanced at Ji Qingyan, nodded and said nothing.
When Lu Yao was not around, the good baby was not curious and not soft and cute.
Ji Feiming called Ji Qingyan aside and gave her a few simple instructions.
Because he hadn't signed the employment contract yet, he didn't say much, but in his heart he was quite satisfied with this younger generation.
Last time he recommended so many people, but none of them suited his taste.
Ji Feiming originally thought that Lu Yao would not use anyone from the Ji family again.
Ji Qingyan was recommended by Ji Feirong, but unexpectedly, she caught the eye of Lu Yao.
A few little people curiously asked who Ji Qingyan was. When they learned that she was a new employee, Merulu and Pushou felt proud as seniors. Recalling the "arrogance" of Si Jin and Harold as seniors, the two did not hang around this junior. They turned around and called Hei Ci away to continue playing the brick-moving game, as if they did not care about this newcomer at all.
Ji Qingyan saw the beef balls wagging their tails behind Hei Ci, and she could no longer describe her experience and mood of the day in words.
What is the situation of this store?
Bu Du gave her a blueprint and pointed to one of the places: "You build this side, and I build that side. Mother said that the second guest room area should be built in the next few days."
Is mother referring to Lu Yao?
Ji Qingyan stayed in the hotel like this. In the afternoon, when others called her after work, she did not leave and waited until Lu Yao came back.
Lu Yao took the cup of water from him and sat down: "Can you get used to it here?"
Ji Qingyan realized that Lu Yao was asking her, and nodded repeatedly: "I didn't expect it to be such a theme hotel."
Lu Yao took out the confidentiality agreement and employee contract from his personal storage, and waited for Ji Qingyan to sign his name and the contract to take effect before continuing: "This street is like this. There are also many ordinary employees like you here. Tomorrow you can go to the office next door to get to know everyone."
Ordinary employees, that is to say, there are also extraordinary employees.
Ji Qingyan became more and more excited: "Owner, can I stay here tonight?"
Building blocks are stress-relieving, and the fact that there are real guests staying in the building block house of the hotel simply makes her unable to stop.
Lu Yao shook his head: "The hotel is different from other shops. Someone needs to be on duty at night. Don't worry, go back and have a good rest first, and there will be night shifts in the future."
Ji Feiming went back with Ji Zhixin in the afternoon and left a car.
Ji Qingyan forced herself to calm down and drove back.
The first day of the ice age was another blank day, but fortunately two-thirds of the recruitment task had been completed. Lu
Yao spent several hours to set up a small room in the kitchen corridor, ready to be used as a lounge for night shift employees.
She also marked out an area on the edge of the window sill near the kitchen, preparing to build a dormitory for the little man employees here.
In addition to thinking about the tasks, Lu Yao also thought it would be best to recruit another human employee in the near future so that they can take turns to work.
---
The next morning, Lu Yao held a meeting with the two new employees of the hotel. The second guest room area was about to be completed, and the next project focused on the dormitory for the little people.
Hei Ci was still living in the guest room these two days, and Lu Yao wanted to arrange employee accommodation for him as soon as possible.
She took out the blueprint and handed it to Ji Qingyan: "The dormitory is built next to the kitchen. This is the main task today. Qingyan, you are in charge, and Bu Du will also help."
Ji Qingyan and Bu Du went to build the dormitory, and Lu Yao led Hei Ci to the door of the guest room: "You are usually responsible for the work of the guest room."
Lu Yao taught Hei Ci to clean and tidy up the room, and taught him to use the laundry room.
There is no such standard concept in the life of the Nitian little people, and Hei Ci found it quite difficult to learn.
Lu Yao also felt that it was a bit difficult for him, but he was very calm. He
learns slowly, but he is very careful.
Hei Ci doesn't like to tidy up the room, but likes to go to the laundry room.
He hates Mu Yueji doing laundry, because it's cold and the clothes are hard to dry. It's very convenient to have a laundry room.
After the morning study, Lu Yao went to the nail salon to pick up Meilulu and Pushu. The three little guys were already familiar with each other and began to move bricks.
They carried the bricks one by one from the window sill to the dormitory that was being built on the other side, and they were sweating profusely.
Lu Yao talked to Fu Chi at the door of the hotel.
Fu Chi will work in the shopping street for a while after the New Year. Recently, he is mainly busy with the documentary film about the Dawu Dynasty.
He whispered to Lu Yao: "Shopkeeper, can you give Xiao Zheng another chance? I just found out about his situation yesterday."
Lu Yao thought of the young man he met in the amusement park yesterday, and said indifferently: "He refused the interview yesterday. You and I have given him enough opportunities."
Zheng Ziyang resigned because he received the magic ring from the amusement park and learned that he didn't have much time left.
He was perfunctory in the interview and now wants to turn back, but he just happened to meet her in the amusement park.
Fu Chi: "If you ignore him, will he become like Qi Chen?"
Zheng Ziyang has been to the amusement park twice, and he didn't pass the game both times.
Lu Yao bent his right hand and tapped the palm of his left hand: "Fu Chi, you are also a boss, you should understand how to use people better than me. Why did Zheng Ziyang come back to me? You don't understand."
Fu Chi: "Lu Yao, I know that Xiao Zheng is wrong in this matter. Do you think this is feasible? I will transfer 10 million to your account and let him enter the shopping street as a customer like me."
Lu Yao remained silent.
Fu Chi: "He has been with me for many years and has good work ability. After I leave, he can continue to assist Ji Zhixin as an assistant. The probation period is half a year. After half a year, you can consider whether to accept him as a formal employee."
Lu Yao: "You are generous to your subordinates."
Fu Chi: "I just don't want him to end up like Qi Chen. This opportunity depends on whether you are willing to give it. "
Lu Yao lowered his eyes and thought for a while before replying: "I saw that his hobby on his resume is cooking?"
Fu Chi was slightly stunned: "Xiao Zheng is quite good at cooking."
Lu Yao: "Qingyan can't cook. If Xiao Zheng comes, his position will be the chef of the hotel. Ask him if he is willing."
Fu Chi dared not have any other ideas and answered directly: "He is definitely willing."
In the afternoon, Lu Yao met Zheng Ziyang in the hotel.
Zheng Ziyang's cooking skills are indeed good. The Twin Fairies, Black Thorn, and even Ji Qingyan said that it is delicious.
Lu Yao and Zheng Ziyang signed an employment contract and a confidentiality agreement.
His employment contract is a little different from that of others. Zheng Ziyang works in the hotel and is paid in time.
The contract period is half a year, and the time remuneration is also half a year.
After Ji Qingyan, Zheng Ziyang and Hei Ci joined the company, Lu Yao was finally able to free himself from trivial daily work, prepare for the construction of the intranet, and continue to complete system tasks.
However, the severity of the ice age was beyond expectations, and there were no guests in the hotel for three consecutive days.
On the evening of the fourth day, the bell at the door rang, and two Nethermen and a red pig walked in.
Ji Qingyan walked a few steps to the door, suppressed her excitement, and asked in a low voice: "Are you two going to have dinner or stay at the hotel?"
Zhuzhou looked up with surprise in his eyes: "Where is Luyao?"
Ji Qingyan: "Turns out he's a regular customer."
Hei Ci was watching the red pigs in the feed shed. When he heard the voice, he came over and took the initiative to say hello: "Hello. Luyao went out for something. We are also employees."
Yiwei followed behind Zhuzhou with a tired look. When she heard Hei Ci talking, she looked up, took out candies and animal skins from her bag, and exchanged them for five NITA coins: "We want to stay at the hotel."
Hei Ci took the NITA coins from the two people, turned around and handed them to Ji Qingyan, and happily took Zhuzhou and Yiwei to the guest room area by elevator.
The second guest room area next to the first guest room area has also been completed. The style of this small building is slightly different from that of the first.
Hei Ci saw that Zhu Zhou kept glancing over there, and asked them if they wanted to stay in the second guest room area.
Zhu Zhou shook his head: "We stayed on the fourth floor last time, so that room is better."
Hei Ci handed the key of Room 401 to Zhu Zhou.
The little people entered the room, and Ji Qingyan and Zheng Ziyang were still in a daze.
Finally, there are guests, but it feels unreal.
Ji Qingyan: "Are they going to eat later?"
Zheng Ziyang came to his senses and immediately turned around and walked to the kitchen, feeling uneasy.
During this period, he practiced cooking for the little people every day, and the feedback he got was good.
But it was his first time facing guests, and he was a little flustered, not knowing what to prepare.
Zheng Ziyang asked Hei Ci for some advice.
Hei Ci was combing the hair of beef balls: "Everything in the store is delicious."
Zheng Ziyang had to go back to the kitchen to figure it out on his own.
He steamed rice, fried some shredded beef, made a dish of smashed cucumber, and a pot of tomato meatball soup, and carefully put them into the mini tableware for the little man.
Hei Ci pushed the cart to the guest room area No. 1, took the elevator to the fourth floor, and knocked on the door of room 401.
Zhu Zhou opened the door, took the plate and said nothing.
Ji Qingyan and Zheng Ziyang glanced at the fourth floor of the guest room area from time to time.
---
Room 401.
Iris was lying on the bed, looking listless.
Zhuzhou put the food on the table and walked to the bed: "Iron, get up and eat."
Iron: "You eat, I'm not hungry."
Zhuzhou sat on the edge of the bed, his eyes full of worry: "You didn't eat well all the way. It's not easy to get back to the hotel. Eat something before going to bed, okay?"
Iron didn't move, and his voice was particularly tired: "Zhuzhou, you eat first, I want to sleep for a while." Zhuzhou
had no choice but to walk to the table. He ate two bites but had no appetite.
The small plate was placed on the table. The temperature was low in winter, and the food quickly got cold.
Zhuzhou sat by the window, staring out the window in a daze.
---
When Lu Yao returned to the hotel, Ji Qingyan immediately told her: "Owner, guests are here."
Hei Ci also ran over: "They seem to know you."
Lu Yao: "I guess they are regular customers. Have they eaten?"
Hearing that Xiao Zheng made two sets of meals and sent them in, Lu Yao nodded: "Okay, Hei Ci and I will be on duty tonight, you can go back."
---
The night drove away the last bit of light, and the sky was shrouded in shadows.
The wind was howling outside the window, and the ice age in the Nitian continent was still continuing.
Hei Ci had shot two horned rabbits outside during the day, and was now borrowing the kitchen in the No. 1 guest room area to prepare a pot of his specialty meat soup for Lu Yao to taste.
Lu Yao saw that Hei Ci was so small that it was very tiring for him to run around on the windowsill every day. She made some new parts and prepared to assemble a few transportation models. When the time came, she planned a route so that Hei Ci could run around in the store without any more effort.
Hei Ci was making soup in the small kitchen while Lu Yao was assembling a mini sports car.
The smell of meat floated up from the first floor. Zhu Zhou in the room sniffed and got up to walk out.
He opened the door and saw Lu Yao sitting outside.
He couldn't help but walk out: "You're back." Lu Yao looked up with a smile on his face: "It's you. Did you have a smooth journey?"
Zhu Zhou didn't answer, but leaned on the edge of the corridor and looked down: "Who is making horned rabbit soup?"
"Can you smell it?" Lu Yao pointed to the first floor: "It's Hei Ci, the new clerk in the store. Do you want to come down and try some?"
Zhu Zhou remembered the dinner that had already gone cold, and nodded: "I'll call Ionie to get up."
In the room, Ionie was wrapped in a quilt and didn't move.
Zhu Zhou sighed, walked over and patted the little hillock: "The clerk is making horned rabbit soup and asked us to go down and drink it."
"Lu Yao is back too."
The little hillock on the bed moved slightly.
Zhuzhou persuaded her a few more times, and Yiwei lifted the quilt. Her face was still not good, but she was finally willing to go downstairs.
In the restaurant on the first floor, Zhuzhou and Yiwei sat by the window, and Hei Ci carefully brought two bowls of horned rabbit soup.
Yiwei saw the horn mark and wolf ears on Hei Ci's brow bone, and her face changed slightly: "Where are your parents?"
Hei Ci didn't understand the guest's intention, but still answered honestly.
Yiwei's eyes suddenly turned red, and she lay on the table and cried.
Hei Ci stood aside at a loss. Lu
Yao didn't understand what happened either.
Zhuzhou patted Yiwei on the back and whispered about the experience of taking them to the Shenmu tribe.
They traveled with the four members of the Xiongming team and arrived at the Shenmu tribe together.
After waiting for two days, they met the priest of the Shenmu tribe together.
After the priest examined the matter, he agreed to give Huxi and Yin'er a baby and rejected Zhuzhou and Yiwei's request.
Huxi and Yin'er performed the calamus ceremony for only half a year before they received a baby.
Iontail was stuck in a rut and refused to accept the result.
But the Shenmu tribe was in charge of the offspring, so even if they refused to accept the result, they had no choice.
The two stayed in the Shenmu tribe for another two days, but finally had to return in frustration. Lu Yao
only then realized that if the Nitans wanted to become parents, they had to pass certain tests.
Basic survival ability, the ability to obtain food, the maturity of knotting, the ability to build nests, and the ability to raise and protect cubs.
Iontail and Zhuzhou did not live in the territories of the Xiaguang tribe or the Red Pig tribe for some reason, and the priests of the Shenmu tribe determined that the two did not have the ability to raise and protect cubs.
Seeing the confused Hei Ci, Lu Yao roughly understood the reason for Yi Wei's sudden loss of composure. She stretched out her fingers and gently rubbed Hei Ci's little head, and looked at the two guests: "What are you going to do next?"
Zhu Zhou and Yi Wei's tired faces showed confusion.
Before they decided to go to Shenmu Tribe, they had made all the preparations to be parents.
But they could no longer return to the tribe to live.
Lu Yao tapped the table with her fingers and made a suggestion: "Do you want to consider staying in the hotel?"
Zhu Zhou and Yi Wei raised their heads, not quite understanding what she meant.
Lu Yao: "The Shenmu tribe has determined that you lack the ability to raise and protect children, so we will make up for it. Working in the inn, I will provide you with accommodation and food. In your spare time, you can go out hunting, explore everything around Stranglethorn Vale, and improve your hunting ability. During your work, you will also have the opportunity to meet guests from different tribes, and perhaps you will find a tribe willing to accept you in the future."
The conditions for the Shenmu tribe to select parents seemed very simple to Lu Yao. The main reason why Zhuzhou and Yiwei were disqualified was probably that they did not live with the people of the tribe.
This can be understood by looking at Monk and Black Thorn. Monk's parents lived in the Red Pig Tribe. After they unfortunately passed away, Monk was still raised by the tribe until he became an adult.
After Black Thorn's parents were gone, he could only live alone as a minor.
If the environment is a little bit worse, he won't be able to survive.
The culture of the dwarfs is really interesting. Lu Yao couldn't understand why such a screening system would appear in primitive society.
Because the fetus is too precious, in order to maximize the reproduction of the species?
In fact, when choosing to evolve, it is entirely possible to choose to evolve in the direction that is easier to reproduce, such as many marine creatures, which always win by quantity.
Iris and Takeshu did not immediately agree to Lu Yao's proposal. They drank the horned rabbit soup and returned to the room.
Lu Yao fell into thought, felt his fingers being touched lightly, and looked down.
Hei Ci held a bowl of horned rabbit soup: "I just heated it up again, you should try it."
Just now, he only served soup to two guests, and Lu Yao hadn't drunk it yet. Lu
Yao stretched out two fingers, carefully took the mini soup bowl, and poured it into his mouth: "The meat is tender and the soup is rich, I like it very much."
Hei Ci's dark pupils instantly became sparkling, and his little hands fiddled with the corners of his fur coat: "Tomorrow, I will go to hunt another nest of horned rabbits." Lu Yao
couldn't help but reach out and gently rub his little ears: "You are still young, you can only grow taller if you eat more and sleep more. I will clean up the kitchen, you go to take a shower and go to bed."
Hei Ci is a child who can be seen through at a glance, and he doesn't hide who he likes.
Lu Yao asked him to rest, and he happily went back to the dormitory with the beef cubes.
The dormitory for the staff of the Dwarf Tribe has been completed. It is a three-story red brick building with six rooms on each floor.
There is a staircase in the middle of the building, and there are elevators on both sides.
Hei Ci likes high places, so he chose the room on the far left of the third floor and moved in yesterday.
Because he was the first little clerk to move into the dormitory, Lu Yao helped Hei Ci pick out furniture, and it took him half a day to decorate his little room.
Beef Grain still lives with Hei Ci, and Lu Yao helped Hei Ci make a nest for it, which was almost the same as raising a dog.
The light in Hei Ci's room went out, and the light in the guest room also went out.
Lu Yao turned off the extra lights, leaving only the one in front of the window sill.
She assembled three convertible cars in succession, and couldn't help but assemble a small train with five carriages hooked behind the front of the train.
The prototype of the train is the one in the movie "The Sea Train Serial Murder Case" which was shown in the cinema. Lu Yao restored the details to the maximum extent possible. When the carriage door is opened, you can see the tables, chairs and small windows inside.
However, due to the size, each carriage can only accommodate two Niteans at most.
Is it reasonable not to take the track?
The alarm on the mobile phone rang, it was midnight.
Lu Yao put down the train that he loved so much, and he could only take the track tomorrow.
---
The next morning, Lu Yao woke up to the smell of rice, and opened the door to see Xiao Zheng busy at work.
Lu Yao: "Why so early?"
Zheng Ziyang: "I was thinking about the guests and couldn't sleep at home."
Xiao Zheng cooked porridge in the morning, with sea urchin steamed eggs, shrimp dumplings, beef cakes, a small dish of eight-treasure vegetables, and a portion of brown sugar-filled white cake.
The guests hadn't woken up yet, so Lu Yao brought a portion and ate it by the window.
Next to it was the staff dormitory, and the fragrance was rising.
Hei Ci was so dazed by the aroma that he stood up and opened the window. He leaned over the window, drooling and digging his belly: "What delicious food did you cook? It smells so good." Lu
Yao stood up and took a pair of clean chopsticks, dipped the tip of the chopsticks in a little steamed egg, and fed Hei Ci: "The steamed egg that Xiao Zheng made this morning."
Hei Ci was awakened by the aroma and leaned over the window to shout to the kitchen: "Xiao Zheng, Xiao Zheng, I'm so hungry."
Xiao Zheng quickly served a small meal and passed it in through the window: "Eat slowly, be careful of the burns."
Hei Ci returned carelessly with the plate of food without closing the window.
Xiao Zheng stood by the window, watching Hei Ci eat breakfast with an "auntie smile" on his face.
Lu Yao imagined Xiao Zheng from Hei Ci's perspective, thanks to the child's carelessness.
Xiao Zheng's cooking skills are indeed good, especially the beef pancakes, the pancake skin is soft and the meat filling is juicy.
Lu Yao ate several bites at a time before stopping.
Dingling, dingling -
guests are coming so early?
Lu Yao returned the plate to the kitchen and rinsed her mouth before going out.
When she reached the door, she paused.
Two unfamiliar Nether men stood by the door, one of whom was about ten centimeters tall.
He had beautiful short silver hair and eyes as bright red as rubies.
