Chapter 626 – Do you need a job?
Looking at Lin Qiye, who was standing blankly in place, Yuzurina revealed an expression that said it all.
What did I say?
With my Seven Nights Brother’s good looks, going to be a cowboy would definitely be the top kind!
Lin Qiye looked at the two-eyed uncle in front of him and asked after a moment of hesitation:
”I don’t really understand, what does this job require me to do?”
”Don’t worry, we’re really a very formal store.” The uncle seriously re-emphasized, “Your job is to normally serve tea and wine to the guests, accompany them to chat, listen to them vent their troubles in life, enlighten them, and try to find ways to coax them to be happy.”
Lin Qiye nodded thoughtfully.
Serving tea and wine, listening to their troubles, and then counseling them?
Sounds like a waiter who moonlights as a psychology tutor, huh?
Other than that, Lin Qiye was at least an “experienced” physician with many years of experience in treating psychiatric patients, so it wasn’t difficult for him to solve other people’s psychological depression, and what he was best at now was to have in-depth exchanges with his patients in terms of psychology and spirituality.
”What about salary?” Lin Qiye asked.
Hearing this, the uncle’s eyes lit up.
He knew that Lin Qiye was somewhat moved, now it was mainly a matter of whether the salary could impress him or not, the uncle agonized for a long time, clenched his teeth, and directly took out the highest salary he could accept, in order to keep Lin Qiye, he was considered to have put down his blood money.
”Look ah, our source of income is mainly divided into these parts, the entrance fee, the naming fee, and the share of the drinks, which ……” the uncle brought paper and pen from the next table, and calculated it for Lin Qiye in front of him.
”…… So that means if the store has average traffic, you’ll be able to make at least half a million yen a month, and if this store suddenly explodes, there’s no ceiling, you know those real top stream cowboys make at least five million yen a month.”
The older man counted Lin Qiye’s money while painting a pie for him.
Lin Qiye fell into thought.
To him, money wasn’t a necessity, but without it, some things would be more troublesome.
Other than that, without money, he couldn’t take Yuzurina to dinner, couldn’t buy a ticket to send her home, and couldn’t let this girl follow him to death all the time, could he? This is not Daxia, without the name of the special squad, a lot of things are inconvenient, sometimes using money to open the way is indeed a very good choice, for example, before in the cab, if Lin Qiye had not directly bought the driver with money, the driver may not be able to bring Yuzu Rina out of Yamazaki Bridge so obediently.
There was also another factor, which was the Cold River family.
Now that he had angered the young master of the Cambrian family, and this young master happened to be a Banezu sword master, the people of the Cambrian family must be frantically searching for him and Yuzu Rina right now, and if he were to rush out of the blockade at this time with Yuzu Rina, he would definitely cause a series of troubles, and might only be able to kill his way out.
Lin Qiye didn’t want to run away, if he could, he wanted to find a chance to do away with Han Chuanji, not only could he help Yuzu Rina completely get out of the crisis, but he could also get a baneful sword …… whether or not it could be used is not to be said first, but at least holding it in his hand to study and research it is still possible.
He was interested in the soul of the sword.
In order to kill Han Kawaji, he first had to wait for him to show himself, anyway, right now Lin Qiye had nowhere to go, so if he could make a little money while hiding in this store, it would be a double whammy.
”It can be done, but I have one condition.” Lin Qiye thought for a long time and spoke.
”What condition?”
”Wages, I want daily settlement.” Lin Qiye said, “I won’t work here for a long time, when the time is right, I’ll just leave.”
When the time is right, you’ll just leave?
A look of realization surfaced on the uncle’s face when he heard these words.
That’s right, with his temperament and appearance, it’s impossible to stay in this small store of his, when the popularity has been saved enough, he will definitely go to the Shinjuku side to develop …… However, if he becomes famous in the future, this store has also been considered to have cultivated a top cowgirl, and it’s also very honorable to say it.
The opportunity can’t be lost ah!
”Okay, I promise you!” The uncle agreed in one breath, “Tomorrow, we’ll start working officially!”
Osaka.
A certain small noodle shop in the middle of nowhere.
A teenager in a dusty black kimono walks into the store, his muddy clogs just stepping on the floor as he hesitates for a moment before backing his feet up again.
He stood outside the blue curtained door, and after a long moment of silence, spoke slowly:
”Boss, how much is the cheapest noodle …… you have here?”
The boss, who was sleeping on the table, yawned, “The prices of our noodles are all about the same, it’s all written on it, see for yourself.”
Amamiya Haruhide looked up at the menu on top of the counter, and silently gulped.
”Give me a bowl of pork bone vegetable noodles …… No pork bone, can it be cheaper?”
The owner glances at him in surprise, a look of disgust surfacing in his eyes, but after some thought he says, “If you don’t want pork bones, I’ll give you 200 yen, but you pack it up and take it out to eat, don’t eat it in the store.”
Amamiya Haruhide opens his wallet and glances at it, the corners of his mouth twitching slightly.
”Is 150 yen …… okay?”
”…… okay okay.”
Hearing those words, Amamiya Haruhide breathes a sigh of relief as his parched stomach growls once again, flooding as if he’s been starving for days.
Seeing his boss walk into the back kitchen, Amamiya Haruhide walked outside the curtain and sat on the floor leaning against the wall of the noodle shop, letting out a long sigh.
The silver-white store sign behind him reflected the light, reflecting the surroundings, and a white-clothed, white-haired figure stood in the reflection behind Amamiya Haruhide, overlapping his form as he spoke faintly:
”You shouldn’t have lent him all that money.”
Amamiya Haruhide was not surprised by his appearance, he just sat there quietly, the color of struggle emerging in his eyes.
”But …… he said that he is my ally.” His voice was somewhat helpless, “Isn’t it proper for allies to help each other?”
”But you don’t have any money yourself.” The man in white clothes and white hair continues, “The little money you have left for yourself is only enough to buy a ticket to ride to Nara and then make a mad dash all the way back to Osaka from Nara, and if you hadn’t picked up this 150 yen on the way you wouldn’t even be able to afford vegetable noodles right now.”
”It doesn’t matter if I’m a little hungry as long as I can cure this terminally ill country.”
”……” The white-clothed, white-haired man quietly watched Amamiya Haruhide’s back without saying a word.
It didn’t take long for the noodle shop owner to walk outside the store with a bowl of noodles and hand it to Amamiya Haruhide.
”Young man, eat it.”
”Thanks.”
Amamiya Haruhide took the noodle bowl and chopsticks, handed the last 150 yen in his wallet to the owner, looked at the extremely light vegetables and white noodles in the bowl, gulped, and wolfed it down.
The boss took the 150 yen, looked at the starving look of Amamiya Haruhide, and let out a long sigh.
Then, as if he thought of something, after hesitating for a moment, he said to Amamiya Haruhide:
”Kid, I know someone who is quite short of people there right now …… Do you want a job?”
