17 ? The seventh store

17 The Seventh Store

◎Concentrate a little.◎

"Tuk-tuk-tuk, tuk-tuk-tuk."

In the morning, Lu Yao was awakened by a series of subtle knocks on the door.

When on duty, human shop assistants rest in the lounge in the corridor at night.

The alarm system connected to the guest room is placed at the head of the bed. If the guests need it at night, they can press the bell in the room.

Lu Yao will get up when he hears it. There are few guests during this period, and no one has ever pressed the bell at night. Most of the time, Lu Yao sleeps until dawn and is awakened by the smell of food.

Today, there is no smell of warm food. Lu Yao glanced at the time. It was five minutes before seven o'clock.

At this time, it should not be Xiao Zheng who came.

Lu Yao opened the door, his sight shifted from level to slowly downward, and when he saw the two little people standing in the corner of the door, he couldn't help but smile: "Awake so early?"

Iori and Takeshu stood at the door, tilting their heads, with a layer of fine beads of sweat on their foreheads.

They woke up early, but it took them a long time to get from the guest room, take the elevator to the ground, and then walk along the corner of the wall. Lu

Yao squatted down, reached out and picked up the two people and put them on the bedside table in the room, then turned around to put on his clothes.

Iori and Takeshu came to the room where adults rested for the first time, and they couldn't help but be curious.

To be honest, the layout of the adult room is actually similar to that of the guest room, or even simpler than the guest room, but because it is so huge, it always looks shocking in a different way.

For example, the night light inserted 20 centimeters above the bedside table emits a soft warm light. The little people look up and squint, and they have the illusion of being directly exposed to the sun.

Ion Tail and Takeshu came to ask what to do in the morning.

They signed an employment contract with Lu Yao last night and have officially joined the hotel.

It was just too late last night and they didn't have time to arrange dormitories, so they are still living in the guest room.

Lu Yao packed himself up, carried Ion Tail and his wife out of the lounge, took them to the dormitory for the little people, and let them choose a room.

The rooms in the staff dormitory are all single rooms, with six rooms on one floor.

Ion Tail and his wife can choose two rooms, open up the middle, and rearrange them.

The rooms of adults can be opened up and renovated, so it is easier to decorate this kind of building block apartment where the little people live.

Ionis and Takeshu learned that Hei Ci and Beef Ball lived on the third floor, and wanted to be neighbors with him, so they chose the two rooms next to Hei Ci.

Including the time for remodeling the interior structure and layout, Ionis and his wife had to stay in the guest room for two more days.

Not in a hurry to move, Luyao and Ionis and his wife returned to the guest room area No. 1.

Luyao opened half of the wall next to the restaurant.

Ionis held her breath and walked in slowly.

She had never seen such a beautiful and clean kitchen, with neat and spacious cabinets, and various styles of pots and pans neatly stored inside, which were completely different from the stone pots that the Nitians usually used. There were also bamboo woven cages that Ionis liked very much, with more than 20 stacked in the steamer.

The glass bowl cabinet was filled with dinner plates, porcelain bowls, teacups, kettles, and spoons of various colors. The three-tiered spice rack on the stove was full of transparent jars filled with things that I had never seen before.

I couldn't help but reach out and take one. When I unscrewed the lid, a pungent and spicy smell rushed into my nose.

Lu Yao explained: "I picked some useful spices. The bottle in your hand contains unground white peppercorns, which are suitable for making soup."

Iris' eyes lit up, and she opened several bottles and sniffed them one after another. Finally, she held up a jar of white granules: "This tastes like rock salt."

Lu Yao: "This is table salt, which may be similar to the rock salt you use."

This mini kitchen is a dream for the Nitans who like to tinker with food.

There is also a mini refrigerator next to the cabinet, which stores some fresh berries, vegetables and meat.

Iris looked here and touched there, completely fascinated.

Lu Yao: "This kitchen has been reserved for new employees. By the way, the horned rabbit soup the day before yesterday was cooked here."

The kitchen is usually not open to the public. At that time, Ivy and Zhuzhou were in a bad mood and didn't notice it at all.

Ivy understood what Lu Yao meant: "Can I cook here?" Lu

Yao nodded: "Do you like it?"

Ivy seemed to be unconvinced. She was stunned for a few seconds and gradually reacted. Then she was a little hesitant: "But the food cooked by adults is already delicious."

Lu Yao: "This is not a problem. Adults also have many things they don't understand. For example, we don't know how to make potato noodles or boil horned rabbit soup."

Zhuzhou walked over and patted Ivy's shoulder. Ivy lowered her head and smiled: "Well, I like it here."

In the morning, Ji Qingyan and Xiao Zheng punched in on time.

Lu Yao called them together: "Let me introduce our new colleagues, Yiwei and Zhuzhou. Yiwei is in charge of the small kitchen, and Xiaozheng is in charge of the big kitchen. You can communicate more often."

Xiaozheng looked at Yiwei and stretched out a finger like Lu Yao: "Hello."

Yiwei hugged his fingertips and shook it gently: "Hello."

Xiaozheng covered his chest, raised his head slightly, and tried to control his emotions.

After working for several days, this was the first time he had such close contact with the Nitian little man.

Yiwei was unfamiliar with the seasonings and ingredients usually used in the hotel. When she heard that Xiaozheng was going to prepare breakfast, she took the initiative to follow and learn.

Xiaozheng made an exceptionally sticky breakfast.

When he was cracking eggs, the little man, who was nearly ten centimeters tall, tried to pick up the egg beater to help.

When sprinkling the seasoning, the little person looked over eagerly, his eyes full of curiosity, and he couldn't help but pass it to her to smell and taste.

Ji Qingyan and Zhuzhou took this time to adjust the dormitory. Turning around, he saw Xiao Zheng grinning and reminded her: "Be more restrained."

Just cook, don't smile so weirdly.

Xiao Zheng looked at her: "You too."

Ji Qingyan touched the corner of his mouth.

Is she smiling so perverted too?

The breakfast was rich and delicious, and the two guests ate alone in the room.

Lu Yao and the staff had breakfast and started to get busy.

Ji Qingyan and Yiwei discussed the layout of the residence, and Lu Yao took Zhuzhou and Hei Ci to learn how to drive a train.

They all had experience driving model sports cars, so they were not as restricted as they were at the beginning.

After half a day of learning, the two were already addicted to it.

Lu Yao still planned to arrange a duty schedule, with internal and external shifts, each for ten days.

Not only Zhuzhou and Hei Ci would have the opportunity to drive a train, but Yiwei could also learn if she was interested, and then they would be arranged together.

But she was busy decorating her residence today and had no time to come.

Guest room area.

Jianlan knocked on Yingtong's door: "When are we going back?"

Yingtong was dressed neatly, as if she was about to go out: "Wait a few more days."

Jianlan: "The priest asked us to find out the situation. Since we have found the adults and the hotel, I think it is better to go back and report as soon as possible."

Yingtong leaned on the door: "The ice age is probably coming soon. It is not suitable to travel far these days. Wait a few more days."

When the ice age was about to end, the weather was extremely bad, with strong winds and blizzards without any rules. The Nitean villain called it the ice age.

This year's ice age was long, and the ice age was delayed. There were several hailstorms before the ice age came.

It was risky for them to travel during the ice age, and it was indeed unsafe to return during the ice age.

Jianlan was persuaded and stepped back: "Are you going out?" Yingtong

: "Yes."

Jianlan: "Where to? I'll go with you."

Yingtong: "...Just take a walk."

Jianlan: "Then I'll go out for a walk too."

Yingtong: "..."

The two little people can already operate the elevator by themselves. They walked out along the stone path and met Zhuzhou and Blackthorn who were learning to drive at the door.

Stranglethorn Vale during the day is completely different from that at night. The colorful windmills on the fences on both sides of the inn are spinning in the wind.

Jianlan remembered the feeling of taking a ride last night and turned to Yingtong: "Take a ride?"

Lu Yao moved a low stool and sat under the eaves, with a basket of parts at his feet.

She was not idle either, and was assembling furniture with pieces of natural wood-colored parts.

Later she thought of this point. She didn't have to go to the carpenter's shop to place orders all the time. In fact, by flexibly using the building blocks, she could also assemble the furniture she wanted.

Yingtong took a few steps to the foot of Luyao and shook his head: "You go. I'm a little tired and don't want to move."

Jianlan: "Didn't you just say you wanted to go out for a walk?"

Yingtong climbed up through the small hole in the parts basket, turned over and fell in steadily, waving at Jianlan through the net hole.

Jianlan thought Yingtong was a little strange. He was obviously not talkative in the tribe and didn't like to contact others, but he seemed to like the big human very much.

Because he was a little short, he was often ridiculed by other members of the Divine Guard.

This time, the priest was counting people, and it was close to the ice age. Others were reluctant to come out, but Yingtong took the initiative to follow the order.

Yingtong ignored Jianlan and sat obediently in the parts basket, delivering parts to Luyao like she did yesterday.

Jianlan went to catch the train angrily, still alone.

Luyao didn't sit outside for too long, as Fu Chi came over.

The time in Dawu Dynasty is different from that in other worlds, when it is midnight in the shopping street, it is early morning there.

When it is almost noon in the shopping street, it is already evening in Dawu Dynasty.

Fu Chi came to find Luyao after work, as he encountered some minor problems with the film he was editing.

This film mainly records the changes in Kyoto in Dawu Dynasty after the emergence of cinemas.

Most of the scenes were shot by multiple fixed cameras, of which a small number of interview shots were taken by Luyao and native shop assistants carrying cameras on the street, and some interviews were with guests from cinemas.

Fu Chi felt that these images alone were not enough, he wanted a voice with Liangjing characteristics to do the narration.

The films played in the cinema were not only re-edited in the later stage, but also the subtitles and dubbing were newly made, which was completely in line with the living habits of the people of Liangjing.

Fu Chi wanted to find someone to record the narration, so he could only ask Lu Yao for help.

The Yuanmeng system was on vacation, and the cinema's automatic proofreading of subtitles and correction of dubbing services was stopped.

Thanks to the sufficient preparations before the New Year, the films that had already been screened were able to be rescheduled for screening during the New Year, so there were no problems. Lu Yao

had dinner privately with the owners of Baixiangyuan and Jinghongguan two days ago. From now on, all new films shown in the cinema will need to change the dubbing, and then they will have to borrow people from both sides.

Fu Chi: This is not a big problem. After listening to the request, Lu Yao had a few good candidates in mind.

Invite them to the cinema and audition them one by one.

Lu Yao: "I will find the people, I won't take care of the recording equipment."

Fu Chi nodded: "Someone will transport it over, it will just take a little more time."

Lu Yao: "Well, I don't understand these, it still needs professionals like you to come."

Fu Chi seemed to be considering something, hesitant to speak.

Lu Yao: "What else?"

Fu Chi raised his hand and scratched his hair: "Shopkeeper, I've caused you a lot of trouble by coming to the shopping street. Not only my personal affairs, Qi Chen, Xiao Zheng..."

Lu Yao interrupted: "You are not a procrastinating person, what is it?"

Fu Chi: "I want to invite a few friends to come on the day when this film is officially released."

Restricted by the rules of the shopping street, the documentary film shot and produced by Fu Chi could not be taken back to the shopping street, and even the original and the equipment used for filming could only be left in the cinema.

In other words, for Fu Chi, this film could not bring him any benefits in this world.

He doesn't care about money and fame.

Although this movie is just a documentary, it is the fire of hope that appeared when Fu Chi was at his most vulnerable.

During the six months he worked in the cinema, Fu Chi was able to observe the changes that movies have brought to the world from a completely new perspective.

Even though movies suddenly appeared in this dynasty thousands of years ago like an alien, and even though the people of the Dawu Dynasty had never known what "movies" were, the emergence and existence of movies still brought power to this feudal, centralized world of the past, and may even push this world towards a completely different future.

It is a rare experience to observe the changes brought about by movies to a feudal dynasty from the perspective of an outsider. Fu Chi selfishly wants to share this experience with a few friends who also love movies.

Lu Yao: "How many?"

Fu Chi: "Hmm?"

Lu Yao: "How many friends do you mean?"

Fu Chi has many friends, and there are also many excellent colleagues with whom he has business dealings.

"About five or six." Fu Chi subtracted in his mind and felt that there should be at least this many.

Lu Yao: "At most two, you think about it, and then send me the other party's name and contact information."

Fu Chi: "...Okay, thank you."

Fu Chi always goes to work at midnight and gets off work at noon.

After talking to Lu Yao, I didn't stay any longer and turned to walk to the parking lot, still doing the addition and subtraction in my mind.

There were only two spots, who should I invite?

---

Lu Yao turned back to the hotel, walked to the window sill, and patted Ji Qingyan on the shoulder: "I remember your last job was a programmer?"

Ji Qingyan stopped what she was doing and nodded: "My hair was falling out in clumps, my heart rate was too fast, and my stomach was not good. I really couldn't stand it. I thought I must rest for a while, and then good luck fell from the sky and I came here." Lu Yao

sighed: "I have a small business I want to push to you, the price is another matter, are you interested?"

Ji Qingyan blinked: "How small?"

Lu Yao: "Help me write an APP that conforms to the usage habits and aesthetics of modern people. The name is... I'll think about the name."

The backend of the shopping street intranet must be in the Dreamland, but the aesthetics of the technicians in the Dreamland is a little bit retro.

Lu Yao thought about it and decided to find someone outside to do the front-end development, and then integrate it with the technology of Dream Country.

If Ji Qingyan is willing to take this job, Lu Yao will not have to find someone else, and it will be more convenient to communicate the details. This

is the first time that Ji Qingyan heard about the plan to build an intranet for the shopping street.

As long as this system is built, she will no longer have to delete the videos and pictures about the hotel on her phone every day. She can share the cute things and stories of the hotel with other colleagues, and may also be exposed to information about other stores.

Just imagining it, Ji Qingyan became excited and nodded repeatedly: "I'll take it, I'll take it, I'll take it!!!" Lu

Yao sat down and began to communicate the details of the shopping street APP.

---

Two days passed quickly.

In the evening, the sky was covered with clouds, and suddenly there was a howling of wind outside the hotel.

Lu Yao squatted under the window sill and added hay to the red pigs.

When the late rose season came in the Nittian continent, there was a lack of fresh plants. The Nittian people would store a lot of hay in the hot season, and when the cold late rose season came, they would chop up the hay and use it to feed the red pigs.

Lu Yao also raised piglets according to their method. When she couldn't find hay, she bought some golden bear food online.

Not to mention, the piglets really liked to eat it.

There was a special sense of de-stress when observing the plump mini piglets eating. Lu Yao could sometimes hide under the piglets and watch for a long time.

Yingtong leaned on the window railing and called her: "Luyao."

"Huh?"

"The ice age is coming."

Luyao stood up: "What's wrong with the ice age?"

Yingtong: "The train hasn't been retrieved yet."

Although there are no customers these days, the Nittian figurines in the store have become addicted to the train ride and have to go out for two laps every day.

Usually, the train is parked outside.

It's windy today, and it may snow heavily at night, so it has to be retrieved. Luyao

turned around and prepared to go out.

Yingtong jumped onto her arm and climbed up by the cloth: "I'll go with you."

She opened the door, and the windmill nailed to the fence made a shrill sound.

The wind was strong enough to blow people down. There was no shadow of the train at the door, and it was estimated that it had been blown away.

Lu Yao looked around for a while, took Yingtong off his shoulder, and stuffed him into his coat pocket: "The wind is too strong, you hide inside."

Yingtong curled up in the warm pocket, his expression frozen: "..." Lu Yao

walked about twenty meters, and his feet were blown off the ground from time to time by the wind.

She lost her patience and patted her purse: "Forget it, I can't find it, I'll put it together again tonight."

It was an explanation to him.

Lu Yao turned around with difficulty, bent down to lower his center of gravity, and walked back.

"Bang--"

A stone hit Lu Yao head-on, making a dull sound.

Lu Yao subconsciously stretched out his hand to block it, and he really caught it, but the feeling was a little strange.

She looked down, her expression stunned.
