The guy's suggestion opened the door to a new world for everyone in the hall!
Oh my god, it is really possible?
Some people saw the clerk's intention and joked with a smile: "You are really eloquent. With people like you in the warehouse, it's hard for the business to fail! With such eloquence, you can even turn a fish eye into a pearl."
The guy was not upset after being exposed. Instead, he said more sincerely, "We men can go out to eat out every few days, but my wife at home is not so lucky. If we come across something delicious, we can just pack up a portion and take it back, which is a rare gift.
"I may say I dislike it, but I must be very happy in my heart. I will tell everyone that my son is filial. My wife may ask if it's worth it to serve all the guests who are so well served by me at night because of this cake."
It’s worth it! It’s absolutely worth it!
If we are reluctant to buy them, wouldn’t we be considered unfilial and unrighteous people?
This guy is eloquent, comparable to Mr. Gu on the stage, and he can convince a group of diners in the hall!
Qiao Xin, who was in the box on the second floor, had a panoramic view of it all.
In just a quarter of an hour, that boy's operations brought dozens of taels of silver to Yu Mancang. He is really a good candidate to be a shopkeeper.
Qiao Xin seemed to see the shadow of Shunzi in him again!
When this commercial street is built, we will need a lot of capable subordinates. Instead of looking for talents outside to join the company, it is better to promote them from among our own grassroots employees.
"Boss, what's that kid's name? Why haven't I seen him before?"
"This kid was recruited in the past two weeks. He is a member of the slums in the south city. His surname is Yu and his given name is Huanxi. He has a widowed mother and a younger sister who is less than ten years old. Although he looks thin and small, he is already fifteen years old. When Wang Wu was here, he was bullied a lot.
His father had gone to serve in the military and had not returned. When the news came back, his grandparents were biased against him and felt that he was still cheerful every day even though his father had died. They thought that this child was a nemesis, a smiling tiger, and unlucky.
The family was divided up immediately, and their mother and two or three others were driven out. Fortunately, they were not stupid and had kept the pension money given by the master well. That little money was enough for them to buy a shabby house in the south city!
The three of them used to make a living by washing clothes for the nearby shops.
I also found out about her situation. Although she was thin, she had clear eyes and was not crooked. So I hired her as my assistant. She is still in the probation period now!"
"Go and call the man up. I'll just take up his time for a while. Can I ask him a few questions?"
Sure, of course it would work. The fact that the shop assistants were questioned by the old lady herself was a miracle. It seemed that the business owner was about to have his fortunes changed.
Shang Qi followed the shopkeeper upstairs tremblingly. As soon as he entered the door, before he could see clearly where Qiao Xin was, he fell to his knees.
He kowtowed three times in a row, which scared everyone in the room!
Qiao Xin looked at the shopkeeper in surprise: Did you tell him something?
The shopkeeper was also frightened. He felt so wronged. He just told the boy that the old lady saw him selling cakes downstairs and wanted to meet him. He didn't say anything else. How could he scare him like this?
He won't take the blame for this!
"I, Heiqi, greet the old lady. I wish her a long life and good health!"
"Get up, get up, kid, why are you being so polite? I'm just asking a few questions, don't scare yourself!"
"Of course I should. My mother said that when I see the old lady in the future, I will kowtow to her a few more times for him. Without the help of the old lady and the general, my sister, my mother and I would have died long ago!"
Qiao Xin stretched out her hand and lifted up Heiqi.
"My child, I have received your kindness. In the future, you are not allowed to kneel down at every turn. Just stand up and talk nicely. I get a headache from hearing the sound of your knees hitting the ground every day!"
When Heiqi saw the shopkeeper winking at him, he knew that his boss was not being polite to him, so he quickly stood firm.
Qiao Xin looked him up and down. He was really thin and had a sallow complexion. He must have suffered a lot. But his eyes were extremely bright and he was born with a smile. He smiled even when he wasn't smiling. His eyebrows were like a pair of crescent moons, his eyes were peach blossoms, his lips were diamond-shaped, and there was a shallow dimple at each corner of his mouth.
Oh my god, isn’t this a natural smiling lip, with a pair of dazzling eyes, looking at the dog’s deep affection.
No wonder those people in the hall were willing to pay money after being fooled by his few words!
"Are you getting used to it here?"
"It's fine. Ever since the shopkeeper took me in, my sister and mother at home can have enough food every day. I couldn't be more satisfied!"
"I saw your performance downstairs just now. I think you are smart and quick-witted. Being a waiter is a bit of a waste of your talent! There is an opportunity right now. I wonder if you dare to try it?"
"Just give your orders, old lady. It will be my honor!" Yu Huanxi subconsciously wanted to kneel down again, but Qiao Xin picked him up with one hand, and his knees stopped abruptly in mid-air.
"I told you to stop kneeling. You have to change this bad habit! The first thing is to learn storytelling like Mr. Gu. When the Listening Book Pavilion is established, we will have to tell stories every day. Mr. Gu will definitely be too busy to handle it all. I see that you are good at speaking and have a good potential. Are you interested in learning?"
Yu Huanxi was naturally tempted. No matter how well a waiter did his job, his monthly salary would at most be three or five taels of silver. However, the tips received by the storyteller in a day sometimes exceeded this amount.
Don't say he is a snob. She has no right to talk about ideals now. The most important thing is to survive and support her mother and sister.
But......
Yu Huanxi tried hard to put on a wry smile, but no matter how hard she tried, she still looked smiling.
". Madam, look at me like this, how can I be a good storyteller? I can't always tell stories of misery. If I smile cheerfully on my face, the diners below will not be happy!"
Nanny Qin even burst out laughing and joked, "Madam, look at him still being like this! How can someone not make other expressions!"
Qiao Xin held her forehead and immediately realized how could she have completely forgotten about this!
Smiling lips, smiling lips. Isn't this a smiling face God gave him naturally? It's not his own will!
Qiao Xin nodded and said, "With this face, you can smile when you see people, and you don't need to pretend when you greet people. You are really suitable to be a shopkeeper."
Being a shopkeeper?
Manager Liang of Yumancang was startled and his mind quickly recalled whether he had done something wrong recently. Was the old lady asking this kid to replace her?
