Chapter 544: NPC 2 in the Natural Disaster Game
After hearing this, the young man looked at the notice in his hand and frowned.
"But it says it includes food and lodging, and it's twenty cents a day."
Feng Niang glanced at the young man and explained slowly, "That was the notice I posted before, but then I thought about it and felt it was a bit inconvenient.
I am a widow, and it would not be good if it got out that I let a young man like you live in my house.
So I gave you an extra ten cents so you can find a place to live on your own."
After hearing this, the young man obviously hesitated.
He came to apply for the job at the grocery store because of the free food and accommodation. Now that accommodation is no longer provided, he has to go through the trouble of finding a place to live, which makes him very troubled.
Feng Niang saw the young man's concerns and continued, "Actually, it's easy. The government has set up a relief station in the west of the city. Orphans, the elderly, and children can live there for free, and adults only pay five cents a day.
If you go earlier now, you should be able to get a seat."
When the young man heard what Feng Niang said, his eyes suddenly lit up.
He quickly said, "Thank you, Madam. I'll go over and take a look. If I can find a place to stay, I'll come back and work for you."
Feng Niang nodded and said, "Okay, go ahead."
After receiving Feng Niang's affirmative answer, the young man hurried to the west of the city.
Although having one more person at home can make the house last longer when a natural disaster strikes, it will be less convenient to take things out of the space by yourself.
It would be better to not let anyone stay at home from the beginning. As for worrying about the house falling into disrepair, Feng Niang already has a better way to deal with it.
After a while, Cao Dongsheng ran back with an excited smile on his face.
"Madam, I found a place to live over there!"
It turned out that the only thing left at the rescue station was the small room next to the kitchen, which was originally used to store miscellaneous items.
Although the house is not big and smells of clutter, fortunately he lives alone in it, so it is quiet and comfortable.
Feng Niang nodded.
"Now that the accommodation issue has been resolved, you can officially start working in my shop.
First, you should sort out the goods on the shelves. For those that have sold out, you should take some goods from the inventory that is in stock. Don't let the shelves be missing pieces here and there. It looks so ugly."
Cao Dongsheng responded readily, "Okay, Madam! My name is Cao Dongsheng. You can call me Xiao Cao or Dongsheng. Just call me if you need anything."
Feng Niang smiled with satisfaction, and couldn't help comparing him with the girl that the original owner had recruited before.
After the female player came to the store, she basically didn't do anything on her own initiative. She just called out and moved.
Later, he colluded with male players outside, killed the original owner, and took over all the supplies in the store.
Just as I was thinking about it, I saw the female player walk into the shop.
Her face was full of smiles and her voice was sweet.
"Boss, are you hiring? I'm hardworking and can read. If your shop is short of staff, you might consider me."
At this time, Cao Dongsheng just went to the backyard to wash the rag and came back and he also looked at Feng Niang.
Feng Niang gave him a raise because it was inconvenient for a man like him to live in the store. He wondered if she would fire him because of the female clerk.
Feng Niang shook her head decisively.
"No, I have enough staff here. You can go look elsewhere."
The female player was unwilling to be rejected like this, so she bit her lip.
"Boss, girls are more careful when doing things. I have a way to make the store's business more prosperous. Are you really not going to consider me?"
Feng Niang remained unmoved, lowered her head, and looked at the account book intently.
"My shop really doesn't need anyone anymore. Try your luck in another shop."
Seeing Feng Niang's firm attitude, the female player had no choice but to look at Feng Niang unwillingly and left the grocery store.
Seeing this, Cao Dongsheng breathed a sigh of relief.
He managed the shop very well throughout the morning, and Feng Niang only had to sit at the counter and collect money.
In the afternoon, a light drizzle suddenly fell from the sky.
Cao Dongsheng sat there, looking at the rain outside the window and then at his feet, appearing restless.
Feng Niang saw what he was thinking and asked, "What's wrong? Just tell me what's going on."
Cao Dongsheng didn't hesitate when the boss lady asked.
"Boss, can I get an advance on today's wages to buy some urgently needed supplies?
Don't worry, I'll be back soon and will definitely work hard."
Feng Niang knew that these players had limited initial funds, probably no more than a hundred coins at most.
Cao Dongsheng bought some things at cost price in the store this morning, and he should have spent most of his money by now.
Now I need an advance on my wages, probably because I need to buy things from other stores.
She readily handed the money to Cao Dongsheng.
"Go quickly and come back soon. Take the umbrella behind the door with you and tell people you're my shop assistant. Maybe some bosses will give you a discount because of my face."
Cao Dongsheng took the money and said with a smile, "Thank you, Madam Boss. I'll be back soon!"
After saying that, he picked up his umbrella and walked into the rain.
When Cao Dongsheng came back, he had nothing.
But Feng Niang knew in her heart that he had already bought the things.
These players all have system spaces. Once they put their things into them, the NPC will automatically ignore the matter.
Feng Niang had seen several people like this on the street. After buying things, they put them away.
Feng Niang also pretended that she didn't notice anything.
At the end of the first day of work, Feng Niang asked Cao Dongsheng to prepare dinner.
After the two of them finished eating, there was still half a bowl of rice and some untouched dishes left on the table.
Feng Niang directly asked Cao Dongsheng to take these away.
She already had enough supplies, so she didn't need a bite or two.
The task of these players is to survive in this world for one month. Considering that the natural disaster only lasts for one month, Feng Niang feels that there is no need to leave so many things.
That night, the rain got heavier and heavier. Accompanied by the sound of wind and rain, Feng Niang slept well.
The next day, the entrances and exits of the town were guarded and no one was allowed to enter or leave.
Feng Niang found out after asking around that someone had died in the town last night.
This morning, someone was waiting for an elderly couple who usually set up a stall selling wontons at the intersection to open their stall, but no one showed up. When they went to their house, they saw the elderly couple lying in a pool of blood. It was unknown who had killed them.
The person who discovered it quickly reported it to the government office, and the government office immediately imposed martial law.
In fact, the entire town was inaccessible.
Feng Niang went to explore the route on the first day she arrived. Except for some people with special settings, everyone else can only move around in the town.
The old farmers who came to sell vegetables would suddenly appear at the town gate every day and walk in.
When he went out, he disappeared as soon as he reached the town entrance.
The items sold every day are exactly the same.
