Chapter 205 I'm willing to do this job even if I don't get paid
5pm.
In a brick and stone tile house in Bobai New Village.
On a square table, there was a plate of pork head, a plate of fried peanuts, and a plate of seasonal vegetables. Zhang Guangzong, 54 years old this year, was sitting there leisurely drinking wine.
While he was drinking leisurely, Zhang Guangzong suddenly heard his cousin's voice outside the door: "Uncle San, are you home?"
Zhang Guangzong put down his wine bowl and said, "I'm drinking. Guoan, you came just in time. Come in and have a drink with me."
Soon, his cousin Zhang Guoan came in, looked at the food and wine on the table and said, "Hey, Third Uncle, what day is it today? You even have pig's head!"
"This is what my daughter-in-law brought back for me."
Zhang Guangzong said, took a peanut and put it in his mouth, chewing it while scolding with a smile: "You take the bowl and chopsticks yourself, do you really want me to help you get them?"
Zhang Guoan was not polite either. He went to the side to get the bowl and chopsticks, picked up the wine pot next to him and poured it. As he poured, he said, "Third uncle, you live a carefree life. You drink a little wine every day, which is much better than me."
Zhang Guangzong raised his wine bowl and clinked it with his, saying, "You are eating commercial grain now, I can't compare with you. If it weren't for my filial children who sent me some wine and food from time to time, I would hardly be able to afford a drink."
Zhang Guoan took a sip of wine and said with a smile: "Uncle San, I don't know you yet. Don't complain about being poor in front of me. With your ability, if you want to go out and make money, I'm afraid even the young people in the village can't compare to you."
Zhang Guangzong waved his hand and said, "I'm old now and don't want to bother with this anymore. My wish now is to drink two bowls of wine comfortably every day."
Zhang Guoan picked up a piece of pork head and ate it, saying, "Uncle San, I came here today because I have a job I want to introduce to you. I wonder if you are interested?"
“Not interested!”
Zhang Guangzong didn't even bother to listen, and simply shook his head and said, "We are all people who know our destiny. How many years do we have left to live? While we can still move and our teeth are still good, we should eat more delicious food and drink more bowls of wine, so that we won't suffer any loss in the underworld."
Zhang Guoan smiled and said, "Uncle San, don't rush to refuse. The job I introduced to you doesn't require you to do anything. You just need to sit there and eat and drink every day. It won't delay your enjoyment, and you can get a salary every month. Are you sure you don't want such a job?"
Zhang Guangzong was stunned for a moment, then laughed and scolded: "Guoan, you dare to make fun of your uncle, are you itching for trouble?"
Zhang Guoan pinched a peanut and put it in his mouth. While chewing, he said, "Uncle San, how dare I joke with you like this? What I said is true."
Seeing that his nephew didn't seem to be joking, Zhang Guangzong couldn't help but ask, "What kind of work are you talking about?"
Zhang Guoan said: "Go to a hotel and be a security manager."
Zhang Guangzong asked in confusion: "Security manager of the hotel? What kind of position is this? Does the hotel have such a position?"
Zhang Guoan explained: "Uncle San, the security manager is just a title. You only have one job, which is to ensure that those bad people in society don't come to the hotel to cause trouble.
As long as you can do this, you can eat and drink in the restaurant every day, and get an extra salary every month. What do you think of this job?"
Zhang Guangzong was excited and said, "This is a good job. I have good food and drink every day. I am willing to do it even if there is no salary."
He didn't even talk about whether he could meet the requirements of the hotel, because there was no need to mention this. He didn't dare to say it in other places, but in this small piece of land in Bobai County, which restaurant Zhang Guangzong wanted to protect, who would dare to mess with it? Zhang Guoan smiled and said, "I knew that you would be interested, Third Uncle. I have reserved this position for you. After the hotel is built, you can go to work."
Zhang Guangzong asked: "Where is the owner of this restaurant from? Where is the restaurant built?"
Zhang Guoan said: "The owner of the hotel is from Songshan Commune. The hotel is built diagonally opposite the People's Cinema. You can go to work in about three months."
Zhang Guangzong picked up his wine bowl and clinked it with his cousin's. He said, "Thank you. This job is really suitable for me. I can start work anytime."
Zhang Guoan said with a smile: "Uncle San, you are being too formal. We are uncle and nephew, so let's drink!"
Zhang Guangzong smiled and said, "Well, drink!"
…
When we came out of my third uncle's house, it was already dark.
Zhang Guoan did not go home, but walked towards another house in the village.
The person he was looking for was a brother of the same clan, named Zhang Guofu, who was originally the chef of the state-owned restaurant in Shuangfeng Commune. He had offended the person in charge of the restaurant due to some things, and had been constantly bullied by that person. In a fit of rage, this brother of the same clan beat the person up severely.
In the end, I got rid of my anger, but I also lost my job.
Last year, when Uncle Jiu mentioned that he wanted to hire a chef, Zhang Guoan immediately thought of this fellow brother. Before that, because it was not known when the restaurant would open, Zhang Guoan had never mentioned this matter to this fellow brother.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
Now that he knew the approximate opening time of Uncle Jiu's Restaurant, Zhang Guoan planned to take this opportunity to go home and inform the other party first.
When we arrived at Zhang Guofu's house, he was sitting at the door chatting with his wife and children.
After greeting each other, Zhang Guoan got down to business: "Shiqi, I came here today because I have a job I want to introduce to you. I wonder if you are willing to do it?"
Hearing this, before Zhang Guofu could express his opinion, his wife's eyes lit up and she quickly replied, "Sixth brother, he must be willing to do it. I wonder what kind of job it is?"
Zhang Guoan smiled and said, "Let's stick to Seventeen's old job and be a chef in a restaurant."
Zhang Guofu was surprised and asked, "Sixth Brother, are you serious? Which restaurant is short of chefs?"
Zhang Guoan said: "The restaurant is not built yet. I came here today just to say hello to you in advance. The restaurant will probably take about three months to be built. If you are willing to work, I will keep the position of chef for you."
Without his wife's reply, Zhang Guofu immediately said, "Of course I'm willing to do it. Is this restaurant state-owned?"
Zhang Guoan shook his head and said, "It's not a state-owned enterprise. It's a restaurant opened by a friend of mine. Since you are willing to work here, then do your best and don't embarrass me, okay?"
Zhang Guofu patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, Sixth Brother. You know I never slack off at work, and you know my craftsmanship. I promise I won't embarrass you, Sixth Brother."
Zhang Guoan nodded and said, "Of course I believe you. During this time, try to arrange your family affairs. When the hotel needs someone, I will come back to inform you to go to work. As for the salary, we will discuss it then. I believe my friend will not treat you unfairly."
"Okay, Sixth Brother, I promise I can be on duty anytime."
